CROPS IN PLYMOUTH COUNTY.
[LeMars Sentinel.l
A resident of LeMars, who took
drive of thirty-eight miles the other
day throughout the northwest part Of
the county up towards the Sioux City
line, says he conversed with twenty
pected. He gathered the following fig
lures: Wheat ten to twelve bushels per
acre and will weigh from forty-five to
fifty-two pounds to the bushel, white
Russian oats from sixty to seventy
five bushels per acre; light German oats
from forty to forty-five bushels to the
acre. He found a fair stand of corn in
that locality, with prospect Of the
biggest average crop in fifteen years If
no untoward circumstances arise. Po-
tatoes averaged from 100 to $50 bushels
per acre. Barley is a good crop. but
considerably damaged in color, being
too yellow to suit the breweries. Rye,
he said. was fair yield and of very
good quality. The hay crop is exceed
ingly heavy. Young clover and young
timothy will be ready for second cut
ting in about two weeks. In this sec
ton Of the country two-thirds Of the
grain is stacked. Many are threshing
out of the shock on account OF the
scarcity of help.

M1sDIREcTED SYMPATHY.
rOcta1oosa Herald.

All sympathy bestowed on tramps
and hobos during these prosperous
times Is worse than wasted. In fact 1t
encourages crime as is illustrated by
the foul murder OF Con Matthews and
Mr.. Wilson If those human hyenas
who committed that terrible deed had
not been encouraged in their roamings
by agitators and thoughtless people they
would have had to go to work long be-
fore this. and work Is one of the best
known representatives. of crime. The call
amity howls of certain political parties
and the declarations of demagogues are
in large measure responsible for many
of these outrages and their dangerous
influence once for all should be broken.
The United States is big enough and
broad enough for all. 1t is all right for
people to have different opinions on pol
itical matters but it is all wrong to in
any way encourage these wandering
parasites who boast OF their apathy for
honest toll, and who live and travel by
any means fair or foul.

REJECTED AS COUNTERFEIT.

Davenport Republican,
One of the new $40 gold certificates
turned up in town yesterday and caused
more fun for a time than the Cherry
sisters. The series was issued only a
week or two ago and none of the Dav-
EXPORT banks have as yet received any
for circulation. Constable Fred Hitch
cock was asked to change a $50 bill, and
when he did SO found, according to his
statement, that he had a piece of paper
in his hand that looked like a soap adj
vertisement." He thought 1t was a
counterfeit until he recalled having seen
a S. certificate. Nevertheless he took
1t into bank. where he was informed
that IL was all right. But he could not
help having little fun with the bill
and he decided to show 1t to few of
his friends. He accosted Tom Scott but
the old gentleman had seen one before
and knew 1t at once, exclaiming what

for he declared that the bill was home

DEMOCRACY AND AGUINALDO.

The democratic platform insists that
we made war on the Filipinos. But the
American people know that the Filipin-

latter were protecting the property of
non-combatants in Manila. The Fill

they had planned to assassinate every
foreign resident in the islands. The
vigilance and foresight of our officers
defeated the foul conspiracy. The con-
