The most stringent conditions
prevail at present in the money cen
ters of this country. There has
been large demand for money in
all quarters, and the supply has
greatly below the demand. Every
bank in this part Of the country has
loaned out every dollar it can con-
sistently with good management
and turns away applicants every day.
There seemed to be a feeling east
that it is unwise to send money
west. At times the banks can get
money east to reloan here, but not
so at present. There is but little
prospect Of an easy money market
before fall.

SENATOR GREGORY AFFIRMs.

At Lakota yesterday a News re-
preventative saw Senator Gregory Of
Minot, the first time since the legis-
lature adjourned. In speaking of
the Kinter substitute for McLean's
platform bill, Mr.. Gregory said that
he was present and saw Lieut.. Gov.
Wallace sign that bill. He was as
near the Lieut.. Governoras was Ar
ME P. Haugen and both witnessed
the signature attached. Haugen
then Immediately took the bill away,
and as Haugen's record shows, took
Orr Sanders receipt for it. Saund-
ers and the Governor have some
kind Of a fixed up "original bill''
they call the platform bill, most
likely aSforgery to order, and this
they show to people who now oc.
casionally stray into the railroad
pass dispensary at Bismarck. But
whatever they have in the shape Of
q pretext, that is not the bill that
passed both houses and went duly
attested to the governor. The
News now has two witnesses that
Lieut.. Gov. Wallace signed the
Kinter bill. That should settle it.

HICKS FORECAST-JUNE,

By June 1st storms developing in the
western regions the last of May will be
advanced toward the central part Of the
country. 1t will be quite warm with
easterly and southerly winds in all the
eastern parts, the areas of precipitation
and storms will be approaching the
central parts, while the far west and
northwest will have winds shifting to
westerly, with rising barometer and
cooler. Storms will reach the extreme
east by the Srd, and the change to
cooler fair weather will have crossed
the continent. Warmer weather will
centre, in progressive way, about the
9Th or 7th, reaching high tempera-
ture and resulting in reactionary
storms Oh and touching those dates.
Westerly winds, rising barometer, with
rising barometer and cool squirt
will follow about the 7th or 9th, first to
the west, later east.
About the 10th strong indications of
the solstice storms will appear. East
ly and southerlY winds will prevail
barometer will begin to fall, and it
grow steadily warmer, resulting in
many active storms from the 11th to
the 18th. The temperature and storms
are apt to reach crisis about the new
moon. Renewed activity of volanoes
and earthquake disturbances may ma
turally be expected, though not neces-
sarily dangerous. They are the read
justment of natural forces and should
be looked upon as beneficial rather than
calamatous. There will be electrical
activity during these solstice storms,
especial during the night, but no one
should be alarmed, as it will prove
grander than disasterous, our friends
will remember the tendency Of storms
to wheel suddenly back from the east
from about the 10Th to the 25th Of June
Showery conditions are liable during
all that period, and local swirls willre-
peatediy ay back after passing east, nn-

The Seattle Woman Interviewed.

Seattle has an eloquent champion in
Mrs. Fred Zick, wife of the attorney,
who is now visiting in the East, as will
be seen from the Polo, ILL.,, Semi Week
ly Visitor:
Mrs. Fred Zick, of Seattle WASH, ac-
companied by Master Fred, arrived in
the city last Wednesday morning and
is visiting with her parents Mr.. and
Mrs. Ambrose Sanborn. She came
over the Canadian Pacific, reports a
very pleasant trip and was much de-
lighted with the mountain scenery.
In speaking of Seattle in general
Mrs. Zick says: ''Seattle is certainly
a city of many natural advantages,
with phenomenal growth and enter
prise, situated as she is between two
large bodies of water, Puget Sound, a
strong arm of the mighty Pacific, be-
ing on the west, and Lake Washington
body of fresh water twenty miles in
length, about two in width and of
great depth, on the east. Green Lake
and Lake Union lie within the city
limits to the north, and with the many
and substantial resources of the sur
rounding country she is truly great
seaport and justly proud Of her do
main. On a clear day the scenery
from Seattle is truly grand. TO look
west across the waters of Puget sound
you see the Olympic mountains, and
on the east behold the SNOW capped
Cascade range. AS you turn south
you see in the far distance the mighty
Mount Rainier with its lofty head cov-
cred with snow, and $4,000 feet above
the sea.
Seattle is indeed city of many
parks and as nature has been so kind
in the bestowal Of her gifts, aided by
the willing hands Of enterprising citi-
zens, all who wish may find restful
spot where the cares Of life may be ex-
changed for rest and recreation.
Possessing as her citizens do the
spirit of progression the pride which
Seattle already feels in her possessions
will no doubt continue to increase with
the further development of her re-
sources. Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

The completion of the elevators
which are to carry visitors to the
promanade on the roof of the Manu-
facturers and Liberal Arts building
was an event of considerable in
terest. The elevator has a direct
lift Of ls5 feet, and the sensation of
going up i'll it is quite startling, be-
cause of the fact that there are no
walls on any side of it and the ride
seems like ride through the air.
The upper landing for the elevator
is near the roof, which is reached
by short flight of steps. The view
from the promenade is fine one as
as it commands the entire exposition
grounds, while at the north lies the
city of Chicago, and to the east, on
a clear day is plainly seen the shore
of Michigan. The promenade is so
feet wide and is guarded on either
side by high and strong metal fenc-
ing. The view of Lake Michigan
is one of the most attractive features
Of the promenade.
An exhibition test of the fire de-
rartment of the exposition was given
May l3 for the benefit Of the 1nsur-
ance interests, which are carrying
policies In the exposition grounds,
and also for the Chicago fire de-
partment and officials of the expo
sition. An alarm was rung in at
exactly ten o'clock at the south. h.east-
enn corner of the Manufacturers
anc Liberal Arts building and in
half minute one engine and truck
were in place. In another minute
six engines and a fire boat were
throwing streams Of water. And in
less than five minutes of the time
the alarm was ounded a one hun
dred and sixty foot extension ladder
was in position on the side of the
building and firemen on the top of
ladder with lead of hose throwing
water on the roof. Six hundred or
more Columbian guards were also on
hand to act as firemen and in other
ways assist the fire department.
This exhibition was decidedly salts
factory to the insurance interests
and demonstrated that every pos
sible advantage for fighting fire was
provided. In addition to this equip
ment of the fire department thild
alarm would bring twelve fire en-
gines belonging to the city of
Chicago into the grounds and fire
boat from South Chicago,

Where We are At.

1t is a sad fact that the very men
who have produced the stupendous
wealth which has been so vividly Dor.
trayed to us through the press. are.
as a class, living from hand to mouth,
as it were, and are obliged to market
their produce as soon as harvested.
Some sell it before it is harvested re-
gardless of price, in order to meet the
exhOrbitant and ruinOus rates of in
terest on their mortgages, pay their
taxes and procure the few necessities
of life to carry them along until an
other crop is raised.
With all their bOasted prosperity,
should the Almighty withhold one
seasons rain and sunshine, we would
speedily become a nation of lords and
serfS instead of independent Ameri-
can freemen. Upon our husbandry
depend all other industries, and when
that fails may we begin to ask our
Se'ves, where are We 2" The man.
ipulatOrs OfOur national finances have
played their parts so well as to I'LL
their own vaults with standard val
ueS" while the real producers of the
country are left to hold "the empty
paper bags" We have reached such
a pass that someone must disgorge
either directly or indirectly, and the
ruinOus rates OF interest now charged
on securities that have proven to be
the very best must come down to a
level with that Of other flrst-class
securities if the farmer may hope to
live and prosper. Our financial men.
and we have been dictated to by
English and Wall Street gold bugs
until our tOiling, cOnflding public have
almost been driven onto the rocks.
High rates Of interest through a
limited currency have almost Killed
out commerce, robbed the eastern
states of their once fertile soil, and
are fast bleeding each of our middle
and western states at the rate of
twelve to fifteen millions of dollars
annually.
The wealth of the country comes
from the soil, of which we have a
great abundance, but what country
or people can long withstand this?
Public spirited, unselfish men whose
own personal greed does not blind
their eyes to the public need, must be
brought to the aid of our financial
policy If we expect any permanent re.
