WE understand that Stark county
had the pins all set for the Indian
school that has gone to Pierre. and
the matter was referred to Clifford ut
Washington. lie remembered that
in the convention two years ago Stark
county had gone against him, and he
said he would do nothing for his enc
mics, and consequently he gave it to
Pierre. There is no doubt that Stark
county will remember this act of the
Judge i'll the forthcoming convention
ut Watertown, and will be instructed
ed for the other fellow. Stark county
can stand by its friends as well as
Clifford can-and kick it's enemies.
The above from the Mandan Pho.
neer contains great deal of truth
and when the convention meets Gift.
ord will find that Stark county has no
love for him.

Terrific Effacts of q Waterspout In North

CHApRoN, Neb., May GA water
spout broke in Northwestern Dawes
county last night at u O'Clock. Five miles
of track is submerged On the Elkhorn,
Missouri Valley and Fremont railroad
and u number of bridges washed out.
Tn cloud was plainly visible from
here, and it had the appearance of a roll
ing mass of black cloud, revolving like a
cart wheel, entirely different from q
cyclone cloud. A nan by the name of
Anderson was in the extreme southern
limit of the spout, and he reports the
water coming in a solid wall ten feet
deep, carrying everything possible be-
fore it. Anderson barely escaped with
his life. This section is noted for water
spouts. The last one came three years
ago and carried the entire railroad camp
away which was then building the Elk
horn, Missouri Valley and Fremont rail-
rp8u.

SlorX CITY, Iowa, May 29.-The Mis-
souri, river has begun it's ravages here
again, ard since 10 n. m. has cut fully
$50 feet into the shore On the Nebraska
side. directly opposite this city. The
cutting was so rapid that a building
could not be moved. AT the do cks a two
story building owned by Nick Prisen is
hanging over the water and will fall be-
fore morning. If the cutting keeps up
at the same rate the entire town of Cow
inston will be swept away i'll a few days.
The bank there is ten or fifteen feet high,
and great masses fall into the rapid cur
rent every few minutes. Several years

WHATEVER else This Most Niseou

WHATEVER else this West Missouri
country may be good for. there is no
question in the minds of those who
have given any attention to the sui.
ject that it is unexcellel as IL small
fruit country. Where such fruits as
the raspberry, gooseberry, c%urrant,
June berry. cherry and plum grow
i'll such luXuriance as they do i'm a
wild state in this section, there can
be no doubt that fruit bearing plants
a be successfully and protitably
grown here with proper care and cul-
ture. Indeed, those who have tried
the experiment OF Il small scale have
been amply rewarded by the results.
There is always a good market fol
such fruits and any one with
experience and a taste for this branch
of industry who would go into it on a
large scale would do we'll in investing
the requisite capital to start Il small
fruit farm in Stark county.
