been unearthed in this state.
Lumber has been taken in large
quantities from Uncle Sans do
mains in the Turtle mountain re-
gion; while the coal fields near
Minot have been worked without
even a royalty to the United
States. The plan has been for
one member of the coal company
to file on a piece of land and the
company work the mines for
all they are worth. At the re-
quired time this member would
abandon the claim and another
file on it: and so on.

The Durrant case will probably
be given to the jury to-day o,
Monday. The rebuttal testimony
by the prosecution is knocking
the props from under the defense;
but Durrant does not show any
emotion. Like Hayward if he is
guilty, he is an arch fend. And,
speaking of Hayward, he has
been busy since his attempted es-
cape in fixing up a statement for
publication, such as he thinks
will not injure his chances of a
new trial. A scheme for the muir
der of his brother, Adry, has also
been discovered and traced to his
fertile brain.

having the largest manufacturing

employment to about 1000 people,
while IS m any more are employed in
two large nail and tack factories, two

expect to equal Illinois as All agri'
