Crop Prospects in the Northwest
The Coal Agitation = Worla's
Fair Funds.
Talks with men posted on the crop
outlook for the Northwest, and particu-
iarly in the Dakotas and Minnesota, is
to the general effect that the wheat crop
this year will amount to little more
than the average yield in quantity and
considerably more than the average i'm
grade. Several men who work with and
handle wheat stated to GLOBE re-
porter Yesterday that there Is no doubt
that most OF the wheat this year will
grade high, and very much larger per-
centage than usual will grade No. l
hard.
Speaking in this connection last even
ing, g. n. Bell, to whom this statement
was made, said: 1.-The wheat prospects
amount to a great deal to this country.
The fact that there is und0ubted return
to better times will help the farmers
more than Is apparent to the casual
observer. Money is becoming plenty,
and it will not only give an opportunity
to move the wheat crop, but will tend
to considerable advance in the prices.
Just think for a moment what that
means to the farmers of the three states
OF Minnesota and the Dakotas. 1t is
estimated that there are over 100, 000.00
of bushels in the three states. Each
cent of rise per bushel on that basis
means gain of 100000 to the farm
erS."
II am glad to note that the st. Paul
citizens committee of fifty has once
more been awakened to the need of
agitating the coal Combine conspiracy"
said lgnatiuS D0nnelly at the Mer-
chants yesterday. IA vast amount of
Information was developed by the in
vestigation committee of the state leg
isIature last spring, and that evidence,
clearly showing fraud, is now i'll the
hands OF the attorney general. l sin
cereiy hope that this committee will ex-
anime this evidence and make an effort
TO bring the matter before the proper
tribunal" Mr.. Donnelly was Ell route
for the West. where he will deliver
series OF lectures upon popular themes.
81 am at loss to understand" said
Hon. John j. Furlong, the member of
the state worlds fair commission from
Austin, "why any sane man should
place any stock in the sensational stories
that the funds of the worlds fair com
mission have been divided up among
certain favOrite banking institutions.
The money was deposited in the banks
that were regularly elected by the CON-
mission at the meeting held in st. Paul
cOunle OF weeks ago. The story that
favorltlsm has been shown is simply
silly"
E. +. Barrett, of the LIE Sueur Senti-
mel. was in st. Paul yesterday, on his
way TO Chicago, where he intends a
thorough inspection of the wonders OF
tbs worlds fair. and tell the readers of
his paper what he thinks of them. He
has been forwarned, and will seek to
avoid the SHARES set for the unwary on
the Midway Plaisance.
