The Rumor That Gould Has Control OF
the Atchison Denied.

The Rumor That Gould Has Control OF
the Atchison Denied.
Boston, November 1Sth.-The story to
the effect that Jay Gould has purchased
the controlling interest in the Atchison is
denied by Vice President Reinhart.
The majority of our stock, said he, is
owned in New England, mostly by people
who own bonds Also and who keep the
stock as a protection. We have 100000
shares of stock issued. OF these between
575.O 900 and 100000 are owned in New Eng
land. Gould is large owner. Hunting
ton also owns a good deal. There is no
doubt that Gould has taken advantage of
the prevailing cheapness of Atchison stock
to buy more out of that difference of $780,
900 shares between New England's hold
ings and the total
Reinhart is very positive that none of
the big New England owners of Atchison
have transferred their holdings to Gould or
anyone else.
ANOTHER RUMoR DENIED.
New YORK, November 19:h.-President
John Inman of the Richmond Terminal
system saws Jay Gould has not acquired
control of that property. He has 100000
shares out of 100000, and he is entitled to
three or four representatives Oh the Board
of Directors out of eighteen. Inman says
he will welcome Gould's interest in the
property.
Dow, Jones & Company's News Agency
has Boston special which says: I'VE are
fully satisfied from our own investigation
that Gould has not bought control of the
Union Pacific and Charles Francis Adams
is most Loyalty supported By the present
Board of Directors"

BISMARCK (N. d., November 18TH
Last night the city was startled by an
alarn, of an Indian outbreak. The report
cam from Mandan that the Indians at the
Standing Rock Agency had left the agency
and were advancing on Fort Lincoln.
The State Government was called on for
aid, and by this morning the excitement
was intense. The reduction of the forces
of Forts Lincoln and Yates has made the
settlers apprehensive, for there are 5000
Indians at the Standing Rock agency alone.
II was learned this afternoon, however,
that the alarm was unnecessary. Every

POLITICAL.

A dispatch from Grand Forks says
that at the caucuses held Saturday night
John P. Bray carried every ward in the
city for state auditor, and George H.
Walsh, for governor. George Winship's
forces have been moving heaven and
earth for the city delegates during the
past two weeks and were routed in every
ward in the city, losing his own ward for
the first time, by large majority. He
goes before the county convention, il at
all, without single delegate from his
own city. O'Mulcahy, chairman of the
celebrated seed wheat commission, which
Winship has denounced so vigorously,
carried his own ward by three TO one in
the largest vote ever p"lled at caucus.
William Bulge, also member Of the
same commission, heads the delegation
from his, with an unanimous vote. The
election of O'Mulcahy and Bulge was
in. no way an endorsement Of the lottery,
but significant that the lottery is not an
issue in the present campaign, SO far, at

State Summary.

Ludden Times: Walt Crow showed us
a large pocket gopher which his dog
caught the other day. The remarkable
part of the gopher was that it was pure
white. It was evidently an albino.
The Willow City Eagle complains that
the oats and fax seed furnished farmers
in that vicinity, by seed companies, is
full of mustard, and many farmers will
have to plow up their crops or haye their
land ruined The companies who fur
nished the seed ought to be prosecuted
and made to pay damages.
Stark County Herald: "Do you know
what has raised the price of range cows?'
asked one farmer of another the other
day. Last fall good COWS could be
bought for SIS, and the same class can
not be bought today for less than $25 or
$50, and it is the same price for one or a
thousand. A bunch of 1000 was recent
ly sold by Pierre Wilbaux of Mingus-
Vile, at prices ranging from S25 to $50
It is said the majority at the latter
figure.
Devils Lake Inter-O Ocean: w. F. Can

Indian Industrial school arrived at the

taking an invoice of the government
property which will be turned over to
him. One company of soldiers will leave
Monday for Fort Buford, and the quart
ers they have occupied will be fitted up
for the use of the children. Mr.. Can
field expects the school to have about
$50 pupils to begin with.

TORE UP THE TRACKS.

City Officers at Ashtabuls Take Practi.
cal Way Of Revoking Company's;
Charter.
AsHTABULA. Ohio, July 22.-The cul-
mination of bitter war between the
city council and John Stewart, 1wner Of
the street railroad line between this
city and Harbor, took place Saturday
night, when nearly the entire length Of
his road, three miles was torn up. Stew
art obtained franchise seven years ago
and built the road under state char
ter. Within the past few years he has
beaten the city twice and three months
ago the council passed an ordinance re-
vOking his franchise and announce their
intention Of tearing up the tracks.
Stewart obtained a temporary injunc-
ton and on Saturday hearing took
place before Judge Sherman who dis
solved the injunction but allowed the
restraining order to hold until Monday.
Regardless of this secret session of the
council was called and at s o'clock 800
men, headed by the marshal, and the
entire police force
Began Tearing Up the Tracks
which was completed by midnight.
Stewart set force of men at work re-
laying the track, but they were driven
away by the police. The city bases its
action on an alleged -fulfilment Of
contract. Stewart will bring suit for
damages. There is good deal Of ex-
citement over the affair and the removal
of the tracks will have an injurious ef-
feet on the business interests of the city.

North Dakota Products Gong West.
The business of shipping what the rail-
road people term refrigerator stuff
from points along the line of the North
ern Pacific IN this state has grown to
such dimensions that a special refriger-
ator car has for some weeks been attach
ed every day to one of the west bound
through freight trains. The car is load
ed at all the stations and carries butter,
cheese, eggs, poultry, vegetables, meats,
etc. This is q certain indication that
farmers are gradually giving up de-
pendence on wheat, which has kept so
many with their noses to the griadstone
for these three or four years. The
market in the states of Montana, Oregon,
Idaho, Washington, is always good for
products that can be raised in North
Dakota as we'll as in Illinois or Iowa.

According TO reports the republican
primary at Spiritwood precinct Satur-
day night was the scene of very pecu-
liar and unusual proceeding. Mr.. A. I.
Warren, one of the Oldest farmers of the
precinct and in every respect a reputable
and reliable man, came into the city last
night for the purpose of prosecuting the
parties who managed the caucus. Mr..
Warren's account as near as can be gath
cred from his own words is as follows:
Shortly after the caucus was opened
E. j. Gleason came jn and was made
chairman. He seemed to run the meet
ing. He moved that no one be allowed
to vote at that caucus who would not
state that they had voted last year for
Miller and Hansbrough and who would
not declare that they would do so again
this year. There was lot of noes and
few ayes. The farmers did not seem to
know what was up, but the chairman de-
clared the motion carried anyhow. I
thought it was high handed act and
nobodys business. am a republican. but
ia local matters vote for the best man, or
whoever please. Ioffered my vote and
Gleason told the tellers not to put 1t in
the box but to lay it one side on the table
There was quite a pile of these
votes put on the table and not counted.
Tom Steyens and William Squires' votes
were not put in the box. One man was
asked who lie voted for as president AMI
he said nobody, as we were territory.
Mr.. Gleason had called me to one side
behind building before hand and said,
II have been counting on you as one of
my friends. I am a Miller man and
wanted you to help me out. It you don't
you can't VOTE" He wanted to be del
egate. I told him he knew I was not for
Miller and was last winter opposed to
him, and was yet. The whole business
was a put up job to send delegates to the
county convention to elect delegates to
Grand Forks for Miller and Wlnship,
with johnson Nickeus of jamestown, to
be chairman Of the delegation. I don't
know whether you call it bulldozlpg or
not, but am going to find out if I will
be gagged again after this at Spir1twood
precinct or not.

gates to the county convention Wednes-
day, were held Saturday night. As the
only work |of the county convention is
theselecti@n Of ten delegates to 60 to the
state convention there was not much at
stake and hot much of fight made to
control the primaries. What little fight
there was,i was sort OF impromtu affair
gotten up during the day. There was
no issue; THE local leaders who desired
to 90 to the state convention made what
little contest there was. Stutsman
county will have no candidate to boom

Stack Flax.

1t will pay farmers to stack fax. The
solubility of flax seed in water is such,
that it's exposure to rain, however slight,
causes decreased weight and lessened
value, while heavy and continued rains
have frequently destroyed all that was
left unprotected. Flax seed which has
been exposed in the field to the suns
rays until it is dry to brittleness. still
holds latent moisture, which will de-
velop when the seed is confined in mass
and result in heat and decomposition.
The above will explain to the country
shipper why so much of his new seed
grades rejected" and "no grade" A
wagon load of uncured seed, though dry
to the touch, will, when placed in car
or warehouse bin in warm weather, be-
come damp and warm. Flax seed thresh-
ed when in the dry condition described
above is liable to be much broken and
pulvarized; the stalk will also break and
be intermixed with the SEED, thereby
increasing the impurity. Should rain fall
on the fax exposed in the field
while waiting for the machine,
or for other reason, the straw
becomes rotten and great difficulty is en-
countered IN threshing, and the seed is
unfit for storage and will not grade Mol.
The fax having been properly stacked,
it becomes by easy transition, when
threshing day comes, fax straw stacks,
retaining at least one.half the value it
had before being deprived of the seed
The coarse uninvitlng hax straw is true
forage, as it is eaten with avidity and
relish by all kinds of stock, giving Wig
oroas growth to the young; healthy
thriving condition to the full grown, and
shining coat to all, which is admirable
proof that its constituents are in har-
mony with their organism.
