CHOICE SEED POTATOES.


OF the many varieties of potatoes that
dealers are pushing forward for atten-
ton, we have selected only few and
only those that have been tried and found
OF value. Our stocks Of seed potatoes
are grown by experienced growers and
are of undoubted purity and reliability.
Ordinarily these potatoes would be sold
at from s1.50 to 500 per bushel but we
make the extremely low price OF Is cents
per bushel for al varieties hereafter
named
| Empire State. No variety combines so
many highly desirable qualities. The
1 flesh is pure, snowy white and houry;
rich and delicate in flavor, and cooks
evenly throughout without any coarse
ness. Enormously productive.
Early Sunrise. A very early and pro-
| duetiye variety. Tubers are oblong,
solid, uniform and handsome. The flesh
| is white, fine grained and dry, cooking
well even when first dug before matur-
| ity.
Early Ohio. This variety is few days
| earlier than the Early Rose, and similar
in color and habit of growth. 1t is more
productive and equally as good for table
and market purposes.
Early Maine OF this potato J. J. 81.
Gregory of Massachusetts, says he has
tested them by standard sorts and seed
ings of the best early varieties, and in
yield and quality none has surpassed it.
Also says on large scale on his farm it
has yielded 40 bushels to the acre.
Cream of the Field. This is a beauti-
full, shapely oblong potato, and q power
full yielder. As tested on rural grounds
the rate OF yield was over 1000 bushels
to the acre. It is one of the best for the
table. Strong and vigorous growing
vines. Medium late.
Early Standard. This early variety is
one of great merit and bids fair to come
into general use. OF vigorous growth,
fine yielder, cooking dry and houry.
Charles Downing. In season it is
thought to be the earliest in existence.
Its color is pure white, for oval oblong,
both as near perfection as possible and
cooking quality is faultless.
Everett. A most beautiful potato in
shape and color. The flesh is fine, solid
and white-a perfect boiling or baking
potato. They ripen with the Early Rose.

JI GAYToN died on Sunday morning.
For some years he has perennially been
at deaths door but always rallied and was
soon after on the street happy as bird
in spring time. Jim was "a years of age
and came to Manitowoc 80 years ago. He
was then up in the social scale and the
tony barber of the place, besides being a
regular Nimrod. When Jim's hands
grew weak with years, he quit shaving
people but he never lost his taste for
hunting and always kept good dog.
He was known to every one and in his
palmy days scraped acquaintance with
the best people. Old Jim will be missed
though Of late he has been considerable
of recluse.

Looks Rather suspicious.

The Big Ok Mining company which
has its Office at Helena, its mine about
five miles north of Marysville and the
most of it's jaw bone floating around
through the East, is doing an immense
amount of bushes in one sense of the
word. It has already sent out 100000
circulars all of which went East. and has
another million ready. No work is being
done at the mine, the ore not being rich
enough to work. The company, it is said,
is composed of ''drummers'' who are
anxious to raise stake at the expense
of legitimate mining enterprises in this
state. It is stated on reliable authority
that the stock is being peddled out in
blocks of 25 and so shares each among
Eeastern working girls. and that the ped
dlers are none other than the brother
'drummers" of those now managing the
company's affairs. Miner.

and of its future prospects. The ma

ELIZABETH.

The Elizabeth Mining company are
soliciting bids for the sinking and tim
bering of shaft 500 feet deep on the
Elizabeth claim. The said shaft is to be
feet 6 inches by IA feet inches in the
clear, three compartment, and timbered
like the Ruby shaft of the Granite COM
pany. This work will consume the time
of large force of men for some months
to come. Perhaps great part of next
year will be required in doing this work.
At present the company intend to do no
further development work until this
shaft is completed, which, OF course, does
not meet the approval of all the stock
holders, many of whom are anxious that
crosscuts should at once be made to tap
the vein from the development already
done on the Elizabeth claim. New
machinery will at once be purchased,
such as hosting engines, etc, to proceed
with the development. It should be un-
derstood that the Elizabeth Mining COM
pany is an entirely separate organization
from the Granite company, although it
is true that many of the officers in the
Granite also hold Office in the Elizabeth.
The resumption of operations on this re-
nowned property has been the general
topic of conversation in mining circles
throughout this district during the past
week, and a brighter prospect for Gran
ite and Philipsburg Is assured by the
further development of the property.

coming better with every stroke OF the
pick. Assays taken show as high as 800
ounces in silver, the quartz containing

property to be one of the coming mines

AN IMPERFECT LAW.
A PECULIAR BCUNDER MADE IN
THE ADMISSION ACT.
1t is said that the Section Of the Land
Laws Providing for Pre- EmDtiOp is
Apparently Repealed-PrOfit in
Flour MillS-FarmerS SWlndlcd

BISMARCK, N. D., No, ,8.-The point
has been informally raised by F. NJ.
Dudley, of the legal department of the
Northern Pacific railway, in the United
States land office, that the pre-emption
law had been repealed by the act of con-
gress providing for the admission Of the
new states. Section II of that act dis
tinctly says that the act is thereby re-
pealed as to the states provided for by
this act" It looks as If it was intended
to repeal section of the act of Sept. 4,
1841, as to the donation of 1000 acres
of public land to the new states for pub
lie improvements, but the text includes
not only the repeal of that section
hut the Whole Law.
There is no room left for legal construc-
ton and it is possible that some enemy
Of the pre-emption law drew that part of
the admission act with the full meaning
and force Of his words in mind. This
point has not been raised before and it
comes in the nature of the discovery of a
''jolly JOKER The land department. has
not dropped onto it yet and that depart
ment may treat it as
A Western Bu9aboo,
but it is certain the commissioner will
be called upon to give his opinion, and,
if adverse to the theory that the law is
repealed, the secretary will be appealed
to, and if he srstains the commissioner
the question will be carried into the
courts. This is the most interesting bit
of public land legislation in recent years
and is altogether a remarkably neat way
of getting rid Of law that some people
think has outlived its usefulness. The
repeal referred to also decides very
large number Of cases where the North
ern Pacific Railroad company is party.
If the law is repealed all pre-em mption
filings where final proof has not been
made are defeated. A pre-emption filing
does not secure vested right, and con-
gress can repeal, as in this case, without
any proviso specifically providing for the
protection of settlers and their improve
ments. This necessarily involves the
rights of every pre-emptor who has not
proved up in the four states. In the alb
sence of any adverse right it is probable
the land department would construe the
law as permitting the settler to make
proof anyhow.
