One firm alone in this county has pur-
chased 900 worth of cattle, the sur
plus of the farmers in the German settle
ment in Ford county. This is q rough
estimate, but is pretty near the truth.
Our German settlement neighb0rs have
sold cattle to other dealers, but not to
this amount. It is safe to say that the
aggregate surplus of cattle sold in one
year amounts to $60,000 in . rough
guess. There are not more than 100
families in the settlement, and an even
distribution of this wealth would give TO
each family $500. With the product in
butter, and cheese, wheat, corn, chick
ems, and other products, the German set
tlement farmers are in prosperous con.
dition. As we understand it, the farm
ers in Windthorst settlement are well to
do, in marked contrast to their condition

At the Normal Institute the class In
civil government was asked to name the
Congressman at Large from Kansas.
One of the young lady students said: Mr..
Fitzgerald (meaning the representative

The teacher interrupted. and said Col.
Harris is the Congressnan-at-Large. 1t
is not presumed that the people can keep
in mind the various officers of the State;
but the teacher showed lapse of mem
ocy. Col. Harris was Congressman-at-
Large four years ago. He is now a
United States Senator. Col. Dick Blue,

When the news was received in London the Barnato stocks took big tumble. The lit tie fish only were caught, the big ones unloading their bankrupt stock on the suckers. The death of Barnato has revealed to London speculators the rottenness of South African secureties, and the inflated bubble has burst. Millions of dol lars have been lost in the diamond and gold craze and it will be many years before London markets recover from the baneful effects.

Czar Reed might perpetuate his name to prosperity by bringing his lower house of congress together and enacting la v for the con struction of boulevard from ocean to ocean, appropriating funds to carry the law into active operation and dawn prosperity on the Amer ican workman in advance of sched- ule time. It seems foolish to have one branch of congress sitting on it's "hunkers," so to speak, while the other branch is rustling to do something, which they firmly be- lieve will rebound to the public good. Speaker Reed with the firm control he has of congress can sweep aside every species of legis- lation to make way for the tariff bill when it is reported back to the lower house.

GOLD EXPORTS
Heavy Shipments Are Likely to Be
the Rule

NEW YORK, April 2S.-One million
five hundred thousand dollars In gold
has been engaged for export tomorrow.
OF the 81, 50O00 gold for Europe, $1,000
900 was withdrawn by Lazard Freres
and $500, 900 by I<idder, Peabody d Co.
of Boston. Both shipments go by the
Normannia tomorrow.
1t is understood that the Boston house
sends its gold to Germany. Both with
drawals were made in regular form by
sub-treasury.
At the banking nouse Of Lazard
Freres it was stated to representative
of the Associated Press that the ship
ment was made in the regular order OF
business to liquidate Indebtedness, ana
was not purchase of gold on an or
der from Europe. as was said or the
shipment of 81. 900 ordered SATURDAY
Lazard Freres' representative sald 1ur-
ther that 1t was not unlikely that 1ur-
ther shipments of the same character
woud be made by them. Withdrawals
of gold coin for shipment are also IN
prospect by other houses by next Sat
urdays steamer. These shipments are
the result of a dissolution of tacit
agreement among foreign bankers not
to ship gold until sterling exchange
should rise to the basis of 4.SS% for de-
mand sterling. actual rates. Demand
sterling is sold today at 4.S7% as a result
of the dissolution of the agreement.
The shipments so far this week
amount to S2,477, 900, and it is now gen.
orally felt that this is the inauguration
OF regular gold export movement.
which is usual at this time of the year
and which has been deferred for sew
eral weeks beyond the normal time by
the heavy exports of merchandise. 1t
is likely that the export of gold would
have been delayed for some time longer
had it not been for the extraordinary
demand made for the metal on London
by Austria and Japan.
