tions.
Tuesday in the circuit court, at
Morrison. before Judge Bigelow.
Attorney Andrews, representing the
Fultonites, filed q motion in the
Woodmen Injunction suit No. to
set aside the order Of Judge Gest de-
nying the motion for change OF
venue. Also motion in injunction
suit No. 6, to set aside the order dis
solving the Injunction, because the
order was made at Morrison, when
they, the wouldbe enjoipers. were
notified to be present at Rock Island.
In the absence of Messrs. Johnson
and jackson. Z. l. Sheldon. an attor-
ney Of Sterling, appeared for the
Woodmen order. The point of the
obssructionists is that Judge Ges,,
by denying the change of venue, and
by sitting at Morrisoa instead Of
Rock Island, lost Jurisdiction of the
motion to dissolve the injunctions.
The hearing on the motions was con-
tinued to tomorrow, when Messrs.
johnson and jackson expect to be
present. MIR. Andrews insists that
ii the court should sustain him in
his motions. that he would have a
right to an order of the court reouir-
ing the office to be returned to Full
ton. All of which he in due time
expects to realize.

They have had some exciting

the past two days fighting prairie
fiSes. Tuesday witnessed particular
activity. Men. women and children
engaged in com batting the destruc-
tive element. The fire started near
Joslin in Zuma township. between
Browns and Osborn's places, and it
burned of fence posts until great
strips of fence fell down. All of Mr..
Browns straw, four stacks. and a
hedge fence belonging to Henry
Angel, were licked up in short order,
and but for the vigorous fight the
neighbors put up the devorring ele-
meDt would have swept down

escaped. One hundred tens of hay
belonging to F. f. Crompton mar
rowly escaped the fire. Yesterday
there were a number of further fires
threatened. but vigilance prevented
their getting anything of start.
Taking Precautions.
Yesterday the farmers went down

up great strips of land around all the
stacks OF hay and straw, this pre-
caution being in order to check any
advance Of fire, and it is one that ali

More Money In Circulation.

If there was any actual relation be
tween the quantity of money i'll clrcula-
ton and national prosperity, we would
now be OH a flood tide. For more than
Il twclvemonth now the amount of mon
ey i'll circulation i'll the United States
has been steadily OH the increase. July
/, 1885, about the time the Chicago
platform was i'll the process of lncuba-
ton and the mouth of the popocrat was
full of demands for moro of the circu-
lating medium, the total money in cir
culation in the United States was ST.
800, 725, 900, making $2l. ID per capita
on an estimated population of $780,
900.
Nov /, 1896, on the eve of the elec-
ton, when the people of the United
States were to give their verdict against
debased and deprecated currency, the
money i'll circulation was 81, G27, 055,-
GA, making $22. G3 per capita on an es-
timated population of 11,902, 900.
March /, 1897, on the eve of Mckin-
ley's Inauguration, the total money in
circulation in the United States had
risen to the unprecedented sum of ST.
675, 694, 953, making S23, ii per capita
on an estimated population of 72,4lS,-
COO.
To fully appreciate this increase of
the money in circulation III the United
States it is only necessary to say that
in the last ten months it amounted to
$3.50, 900, 1853, or more than 80 per cap
tia of the entire population.
While the absolute circulation has
passed all previous high water marks
tho per capita circulation is still $3.50
below that of 1899, just before the pam
ic. But the per capita is now higher
than it was in 1890 or any year i'll the
history of the republic prior to that.
Then why are the times not us good as
they were along in the late eightiesG
Simply because good times depend on
public confidence and industrial actiy-
ity, and not on the amount of money in
circulation. This is simply the teaching
of the old proyerb that nimble six
pence is better than slow shilling -
