There is special law for Otter Tail

Silver In Volcanic Ashes.

The existence of silver in volcanic
ashes is rare occurrence. Only in two
cases have argentiferous ashes been met
with. The sample was obtained during
an eruption of CotopaH in July, 1885, in
the ashes of which Mr.. J. w. Malet
proved the existence of one part of sill
yer in SO, 900 parts Of ashes. In the fol-
lowing year the same investigator was
able to add second instance. In Janu-
airy, 1886, violent eruption. of Tun-
guragua, in the Andes of Ecuador, be-
tween fifty and fifty-fiye miles from
Cotopax, took place, the eruption con-
tinuing at longer or shorter intervals up
to November of the same year. The
ashes thrown by this volcano, which
had been at rest for over century,
contained silver to the extent of one
part in los, 200 parts of ashes. This APP
pears, at first sight, to be only very
small percentage of the metal; but when
it is considered what enormous quanti-
ties of ashes are erupted, and what q
vast extent of area they cover after an
eruption, the quantity of silver thrown
up with them must be considerable.

A Clearly Written Plan.

Senator Stanford of California has
again introduced his bill providing
for a land loan bureau, whereby
farmers can secure money equal TO
the amount of one half its assessed
value at a rate of interest net ex-
ceeding 2 per cent. 1t was read
twice and ordered to lie on the table.
The bill is a clearly written plan to
reduce interest and allow the farmer
to lift his Indebtedness and reduce
his burdens. If the farmer and wage
Garner were represented in Congress
in sufficient numbers to control leg
,islation for them, we might hope for
something, but so long as the bank
ers, lawyers and millionaires are in
such overwhelming numbers and the
farmers and wage.earners persist
in electing that kind of people, they
will not be relieved. The class of
people now in Congress are the
creatures of corporations they are
their instruments to do their bidding.
and they seem TO be faithful servants
to their masters If they were
equally faithful to the people who
voted for them possibly the legisla
ton would not be adding dollars to
the millionaires' and money loaners'
purse, But rather helping ong those
who have been bearing the burden OF
this battle. We think that some
measure similar TO Stanford's bill
should be made law. but it should
provide that the county treasurers
should control the collecting of the
interest and the loaning ofthe money
and in that manner prevent the
appointment of additional officers
with the expense of providing for
offices and equipments.-Ploao and
Hummer.

Farmers Swindled Out of Enough
in the last 10 Years to Pay the
Public Debt.

Clapp & Co in their weekly market
report say in speaking of three bear
firms that make farm products q
specially:
"We believe the trio has forced
our farmers to secure enough less for
their products the past 10 years to
have paid the public debt, conse :
quently the Alliance momement is
in self defense"
They report corn, wheat and oats
crops all short and consequent
higher prices in future, which the
bear firms are mBking every effort to
prevent but in the mean time are
preparing to take advantage of the
rise when they can no longer prevent
it. Farmers are not half organized.
They should all belong to some one
of their organizations They would
profit good deal by cooperation in
many things, but their greatest power
is exerted in influencing public SEN
timent and compelling favorable
action by legislatures and congress
through their state and national
organizations. When these bodies
appear before the law makers asking
for legislation for well defined rea-
sons with bills prepared which they
demand to be passed, the larger their
backing by sub-organizations the
greater their influence. Farmers
have never commanded SO much
respectful attention by the public
press of the country as was exerted
by the annual convention Of the
Alliance assembled at Ocala, Fla,
The National Grange has headquar-
ters at Washington and is exerting
powerful influence on Congress in
haying laws passed to protect the
farmer from the vultures that prey
upon him The Maryland State
Grange was welcomed with "open
arms' by the Corn and Flour Ex-
change, in the movement in the mat
ter Of the Railroad Car Service. The
officers of the Exchange allege this
new company is taking $4,000 TO
$4,000 month out of the pockets of
farmers whose produce is sold in
Baltimore.
There are many weighty reasons
why every farmer should join one of
the organizations in order that his
individual influence should be felt on
the side his interest lies. The only
organization of the class named in
this county is the Grange and it
would be greatly to the advantage of
farmers of the county il many more
of the domant Oranges were revived.

Ralph Flynn, rancher living at
Wayne, on the Seattle, Lake Shore and
Eastern railway, has had dangerous
encounter with q panther and narrowly
escaped the claws of the beast.
Flynn started hunting early one morn
ing, taking with him Winchester rifle
of the latest patent, which he had just
bought and had not learned to handle
with skill. He was looking principally
for deer, and had gone about five miles
through deep thicket when he came
suddenly upon the partially devoured
carcass of a sheep. which had evidently
fallen prey to panther. Remember
ing reports of sheep having been killed
by wild animals in his neighborhood,
Flynn fastened on, nerving himself for
tussle with a cougar or some equally
fierce beast. With the assurance that
his gun was prepared he cautiously eyed
every nook as he passed, occasionally
seeing fresh tracks of varmints.
Flynn travelled on about two miles in
this manner without success, and gave
up the chase on that line. He had just
turned to retrace his steps when his eye
caught what seemed to be a dogs head
peering at him over a log. A second
look proved to Flynn that it was a
panther instead of dog Taking de.
iberate aim, Flynn rested his rifle
against tree and fred at the animals
head. The ball only stunned the brute,
which, with crazy leap, made toward
Flynn. The latter's delay in reloading
on account of the new patent nearly
proved fatal to himself, as the panther
was within twenty feet of him when he
shot it dead between the eyes. The
brute was between Flynn and the sleeps
carcass, and had followed him by its
keen scent for two miles.
It measured nine feet from tip to tip,
and its hide is now trophy highly
priced by Flynn. Seattle Post-Intelli-

John A. Suffer.

John A. Suffer was born in Baden in
1908 of Swiss parents, and was proud of
his connection with the only republic of
consequence in Europe. He was warm
admirer of the United States, and some
of his friends had persuaded him to come
across the Atlantic. He first went to a
friend In Indiana with whom he staid
awhile, helping to clear land, but was
business that he was not accustomed to.
So he made his way to st. Louis and in
vested what means he had in merchan-
disc, and went out as New Mexican
trader to Santa Fe. Having been unsuc-
cessful at Santa Fe he returned to st.
Louis, Joined q party of trappers, went
to the Rocky mountains, and found his
way down the Columbia river to Fort
Vancouver. There he formed plans for
trying to get down to the coast of Cali
fornia to establish colony.
He took a vessel that went to the
Sandwich islands, and there commune
Gated his plans to people who assisted
him. But as there was no vessel going
direct from the Sandwich Islands to Cal
ifornia, he had to take a Russian vessel
by way of Sitka. He got such credit
and help as he could in the Sandwich
islands and induced five or six natives to
accompany him to start the contem-
plated colony. He expected to send to
Europe and the United States for his
colonists. When he came to the coast of
California, in 1910, he had an interview
with the governor, Alyarado, and OBJ
tanned permission to explore the coun-
try and find place for his colony. He
came to the bay Of San Francisco, pro-
cured a small boat and explored the
largest river he could find, and selected
the site where the city of Sacramento
now stands.-Gen. Bidwell in Century.
