report, of which follows:
To the Officers and Members of the State
Board of Trade.
| have respectfully to report that /

at the time tfty-two organized Boards of
Trade in the State. of an aggregate
membership Of g. 1876, being an increase.

thirty -one are accredited in membership

members according to last returns, with
out including applications for admis-
sion at the present session.
The growth and magnitude of the
central organization would seem to JUS
tify exaotion of more prompt and regular
payment of annual dues in the future,
than the leniency tolerated in earlier ex-
perilnental years of the State Board
which by its power and influence has
created sentiment tending to call into
existence local Boards throughout all
sections of tho State. There are at this

LARGE SALES.

Our Land is Rapidly Going to a Most De-
sirable Glass.
The sales of land made during the
past eight months in Central Mime
sofa have been unusually large, the
area disposed of during that period ag-
gregating in the neighborhood of no.
900 acres. This acreage has been sold
to 1,l5O different purchasers, making
an average of less than 96 acres to each
purchaser. All, or nearly all, Of these
sales have been made to persons who
will settle upon and improve the land
and make homes for themselves. The
prospect for business in Minnesota dur
ing the coming spring is brighter than
for many years. There is a large in
,quiry from parties in older settled por-
lions of Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois,
Southern Minnesota and adjoining
States who contemplate moving in the
spring. A majority of these people
are either Americans or Americanized
foreigners, and are the most desirable
class of settlers. They are mostly Of
the younger generation who cannot. af-5
ford to purchase homes for them
selves in the communities in which
they were raised, because of the high
price of the land there, and who are
not willing to subject themselves to the
payment of high rents for farms San

lie VIII ResIRn.

The investigation into the al
legged misconduct of Commits
sioner Garrett, of Tishomingo,
was concluded before Judge
Kilgore last night and as a re-
suit, reached by agreement, Mr..
Garrett will resign his position
January /. The ARDMoREITE
understands that his resigna-
ton was not demanded, but
that Mr.. Garrett himself, as
we'll as the court, thoughtit best,
in view of the unpleasant stu
alton, that he voluntarily step
down and out.
Judge Garrett has made an
excellent officer, is well qualified
for the duties of the position.
1t is a matter of regret that cir
cumstances have so combined
as to make his resignation
necessary.

PLOT DISCOVERED.
The Federal Prisoners SchemInR and
Working to Effect Their Escape
Their Tools Captured.

But for the vigilance of Marshal
Stowe and his Jail guards today
the prisoners would have been by
this time in a fair way to escape.
They were noticed this morning
to be unusually active, which fact
aroused the ever suspicious guards.
A vigorous search was instituted,
resulting in the finding of a dozen
or more saws made from one of
their zinc water buckets and steel
shanks from their shoes. At the
time of the discovery considerable
headway had been made. Two
holes had been cut through the
floor. Through one of these the
work of digging a tunnel was car
ried on, the loose dirt from which
was put under the floor through
the other opening.
This is only one of several re
cent plots unearthed and shows
conclusively the desperate charae-
ter of the men with whom the Off
GERS have to deal.
1t is safe to say, however, that
they will have to devise some un-
heard of methods if they defea
their watchful guardians.

construction of the road. The

ditionally in order that the first
of these propositions to materi-
alize could be accepted by the
receiver. 1t simply defines
what will be required before
negotiations for further con-
struction work will be consider
ed or accepted.
