quarters for their business throughout the
northwestern states and territories.
Up to the present time the business of
the Wells & Fargo Express company has
been confined to the territory west of the
Missouri river. 1t has transported all the
bullion from the mines of Idaho, Nevada,
Montana and Wyoming to the Missouri,
where connection was made with the ex-
press companies controlling the territory
east of the Big Muddy. The establish
ment of the Northern Pacific Express
company is regarded by the Wells & Fargo
managers as violation of the compact
heretofore existing, and they do not con-
slider themselves under obligations to
restrict their business any longer to the
territory they have SO long occupied
exclusively. With the rare foresight that
has characterized the managers of the
corporation they have selected st. Paul,
the metropolis and distributing point for
the vast empire of the northwest, as the
seat of their operations in this section.
The express company possesses invaluable
franchises, while the bank will possess
capital second in amount to none of our
other colossal financial institutions and
will have besided the prestige of being
supported by all the fifteen millions of
means that compose the capital of the
company.
1t is difficult to predict the benefits that
will accrue to st. Paul from the location
of department headquarters of this giant
corporation here. 1t will not only attract
large amounts of business but capital to
the city. That capital must seek invest
ment in business and manufactures. all of
which will bring wealth and population to
our doors. The enterprise is only another
indication that among the shrewdest capt.
talists of the country st. Paul is regarded
as the financial and business metropolis of
the northwest, and that its future is bright
with the promise of greatness.

State Board of Eoualization.

The state board of equalization met
yesterday and devoted the entive day to
business. Quite an interesting discussion
arose relative to equalizing the assessment
on goods and merchandise, and on manu-
featuring in st. Paul and Minneapolis. A
motion to allow the assessment of st. Paul
to stand was lost by the casting
vote of Daniel Bassett, of
Minneapolis. A motion was then made
by Mr.. Thompson, of Polk, to increase
st. Paul ten per cent. Mr.. Dawson, of
Ramsey, moved to have the assessors of st.
Paul and Minneapolis invited to appear
before the board with their books and
explain their assessments. This motion
prevailed and the board adjourned until

MISSOURI Justice is a queer article. The
desperate Frank James, who has been on
trial at Gallatin for several days, was yes
terday acquitted by the jury, although
there is no reasonable doubt in the mind
of any sane person that he was not only
guilty of the charges of (which he was
accused, but of other crimes almost toe
numerous to mention. But after all il
makes little difference in the end, as there
is every reason to believe the outlaw would
have been pardoned by the governor if the
Jury had convicted him.

Frank James Acquitted.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. Sept. 6.-The topic of
conversation on the streets this evening is
Frank James acquittal There are many
who say they expected it, but the majority
say they looked for disagreement of the
jury. Public sentiment can be quoted as
strong in condemnation of the verdict, al
though there are those who argue from a
strict legal standpoint that the jury was
justifable in acquitting, the states evil
dence being made up of Lidell's testimo-
ny supported only by circumstantial evil
dence. The general feeling, however, is
one of disappointment and chagrin
that the strong chain of evidence woven
by the state failed to stand. Expressions
OF sympathy with the prisoner or satisfac-
ton over his acquittal are confined to q
very few who are and have been James
friends, and can be taken in no way what
ever as an indication of the actual public
sentiment here. A frequent expression is
the verdict is an outrage and an unjust
stigma upon the state. Charges of jury
fixing also are banded around.

"ANYBoDY to beat Butler" is the despair
ing cry of the Massachusetts Republicans.
Butler has announced his purpose of
being candidate for reelection. This
throws the Republicans into consterna-
ton. They heap all manner of abuse
upon Butler. They charge him with
inconsistency, because in his inaugural he
said he would not be candidate for
reelection. Had he been treated decently
he would have retired quietly no doubt.
But the very abuse heaped upon him has
caused him to seek reelection as mat
ter of personal and official vindication.
He will be nominated and reelected. The
Republican party in Massachusetts, its
strongest hold, is tottering to the final
fall. And so everywhere corruption
wins not more than honesty"

vate contract, it is understood, was entered
into yesterday, and as soon as the writings
are completed the work will be commenced
at once.

The Keswick saloon has been the object
of fierce contention for the past two days.
Two or three different parties claim the
right of occupancy. On Tuesday the place
was sold out by the sheriff to satisfy a
claim of Mr.. Wolf and yesterday Mr..
Hall, the owner, took advantage of the
watchmans' absense and burst open the
door and proclaimed himself master of
the situation. Michael Stark claims to
have rented the place, and feeling sure
of his bargain procured license at the last
meeting of the city council.
On Wednesday Dennis Kitty, farmer
in the town of Saltwater, was applied to
for work by man named Hudson. Mr..
Kitty, not desiring more help so informed
the applicant, who went away and it was
supposed had left the premises. At an
early hour yesterday morning Mr.. Kitty
fired straw stack on his farm. When
partly consumed the farmer was greatly
surprised at seeing pair of legs protrud-
ing from the flames. In a moment
the body was extricated, which proved to
be the man Hudson. Although badly
burned and but snail chance of saving
life, everything that could be done to
relieve the terrible suferings of the I'M
fortunate man was done by Mr.. Kitty. DR..
Merrill was summoned and caused Hudson
to be conveyed to the city hospital. From
the physician in charge it is learned there
is chance for the man to recover, but
such result is considered very doubtful
1t is supposed that Hudson was at once
suffocated by the smoke, and stupeied to
such an extent that he was unable to move
or make his presence known.

Cocoa and Chocolate.

Cocoa, or cacao, is extracted from the
seed of small trees Of the genus theobroma,
which, when cultivated, grows from twelve
feet to eighteen feet high, but to higher
elevation in the wild state. The flowers
are small, and cluster on the branches and
trunk, the matured fruit appearing as
though artifcially attached. Out Of each
cluster only one pod is allowed to mature,
and this when full grown is from seven
inches to ten inches long by three inches
to four and half inches wide The five
cells contain each arrow Of from five to ten
seeds embedded in a pink acid pulp, the
cocoa bean. The tree is indigenous to
Mexico, but it can be cultivated within
the twenty-ffth parallels Of latitude, and
thrives at any elevation under 2, 900 feet,
but it requires a rich soil, warm, humid
atmosphere, and protection from cold
winds. The trees are propagated from
seeds in a nursery until they attain
height Of from fourteen to eighteen in

carefully sheltered by planting other
trees about them. They commence to
bear about the fifth year, but do not at
tain maturity until the eighth, and
continue yielding fruit for near
" half a century. There is no
special time for harvesting the crop, as
the trees continue bearing all the time,
