Damage to Grain.

It is difficult to estimate the
amount of damage which has been
done to the crops of this locality by
the wet weather of the past couple of
weeks. In some places the damage
has been very slight, for the grain
was either stacked or so shocked and
situated that it dried rapidly and
without serious damage. In other
places, the shocks were left standing
in water by the phenomenal rainfall
and of course needed to be dried out.
Before this could be done. however,
much of the grain had spronted and
is consequently ruined. Then again
there was a small amount Of the
grain which had not yet been cut.
In most cases, tnis was rendered en-
tirely worthless, but on Thursday. we
noticed some which was being cut.
The heavy rain and hail of yester-
day will prove another heavy setback
to the crop. The hail undoubtedly
threshed out the shocks and the
rain soaked many fields which we G

The nusical.

There is no doubt that the musical
given by Prof. D. F.. Colville, OF
Carleton College, on Tuesday evening
was one of the best exhibitions OF
high class music which has been
heard ia Morris. Prof. Colville is
gifted with a very rich voice which ne
has we'll under control. His tee
n;que is unexcelled. Something of the
beauty of his voice can be appreciated
from the manner in which he held the
attention of his audience even though
many of his songs were Italian. 1t
is to be hoped that the people OF
Morris will have in the future many
more opportunities of hearing this
talented singer.
Any netieeof-t the musical would be
incomplete, however, Without special
mention of Miss Edna Johnsou's acs
compartments, in which she showed
herself as pianist of no ordinary
ability.

Thirty-two Potatoes Found in Cellar
Post by James Horan.

We were told the following first
class whooper this week, and upon
investigation found it to be true.
For some time James Moran has
noticed q weakening of one of the
posts in his cellar, and a consequent
settling of the chimney, which was
supported in part by this post. One
day this week he decided to investl-
gate the trouble. He examined the
post in question and found that an
innocent individual from last years
potato crop had imbedded itself IN
the post, and was shooting up long
shoots towards the light,as any selfres-
pecting potato would do under the cir
cumstances. Pulling them awayJames
was surprised to find tull grown
potato of this years crop on the IN
side of the post. Removing this ne
found another then another, until at
last he had taken out from the inter
ior of the post 80 full grown potatoes
all having grown there this year.
Mr.. Moran will put in new post
to support his chimney, for the pots-

dinary post and deserves something
better than carrying brick and NOR

GUESS AT PHILIPPINE REPORT
short, Concise, Preliminary Report to
Bc Submitted by commission as
Basis for Legislation.

WASHINGTON, oct. 2S.-The state depart
ment has secured rooms at the Arlington
hotel for the use of the Philippine COM
mission.
Colonel DENLY and Prof Worcester are
spending much time in consultation with
leading officials of the administration AL
though the plans for the approaching ses
sions OF the committee have not yet been
fully outlined, the indications are that the
earnest efforts of the body will be devoted
to the preparation of a short. concise, pre-
liminary report, which will be submitted
in season to serve as a basis of such con-
gressional legislation as may be necessary
at the approaching session.
1t Is presumed that this will set out briefly
the origin Of the breach between Agunaldo
and the American forces. fixing the re-
sponsibility therefor with all of the weight
that should attach to tho conclusion OF a
body OF this character.
1t is not believed that the attempt will
be made in the preliminary report to plan
detailed system of government for the
Philippines, but this will be allowed to go
over until the insurrection has been quelled.
All OF this forecasts a return of the com
mission to the Philippines, even before the
expiration of the present dry season. II
the result of the present military operations
warrants 1t and a circumstance that tends
to corroborate this belief is the fact that
the commission has left behind at Manila
installed in it's headquarters, the entire force
OF employees and officials save Secretary
Macarthur.

MARBLE PRECINCT IN LINE
Republican Meeting OF Friday Night
Arouses the Voters to Keen
Interest.

A rousing republican meeting was held
Friday evening at Glendt school house in
McArdle precinct. The following candidates
on the republican county ticket made short
addresses that were well received: d. M
Haverly, for county clerk; f. ]. Bodwell
for county superintendent; d. NJ. Vinson-
haler. for county judge, and Lee Estelle, for
judge Of the district court.
John c. Wharton was the orator OF the
evening and devoted most of his time to a
discussion of national issues. He reviewed
the steps leading up to the treaty with Spain
and expounded the duty of every patriotic
American to stand by the administration in
time of war, to the end that the honor and
majesty of the flag may be vindicated.
The speakers remarks aroused the greatest
enthusiasm and at the close his hearers
gathered around him to shake hands and
insisted that he should attend the rally OF
German republicans at Millard tomorrow.
They assured him that McArde precinct
was safely republican and that rumors to the
contrary were simply fabricatlons.

on the anti-lnperalist theme. The demo-
Gratis and Aguinaldo have Joined hands. The
leader OF the Filipino rebels-the men who
are firing at our flag and our boys-sends
greeting to the democratic party and asserts
that the insurgents are praying for demo-
cratic success. Conversely It Is reasonable
to believe that the democrats are praying
for Aguinaldo and his sympathizers. In 1864
the people who opposed Lincoln and his policy
demanded a cessation OF hostlites, just as
Bryan and his followers are demanding
now Mr. Wharton asserted that demo
Gratis are annoying the administration and

POPULlSTS ESCAPE A FIGHT
Rebellious Action of the Meeting of
Week Ago is Indefinitely
Postponed.

The populist county central committee met
last evening at the headquarters Of the Peter
Cooper club on Howard street with about
twenty members in attendance, 1t was an
ticipated that there would be trouble over
the action Of quorum of the committee the
previous Saturday evening, when, in the alb
sence of the chairman and secretary, all ac-
ton Of the executive committee in reference
to the placing of James W. Carr on the
ticket as candidate for county judge was eX-
plunged from the records. The threatened
disturbance did not materialize however.
The meeting last evening was held behind
closed doors and after a spirited discussion
the action OF the committee last Saturday
evening was indefinitely postponed by vote
OF 13 to o. 1t appears that A. w. Tidd, who
acted as secretary OF the rebellious meeting
a week ago, never prepared the minutes Of
the meeting. Last evening he simply re-
ported that committees action orally and it
was this report which was postponed. The
action Of the previous meeting demanding
a report from the executive committee as to
all of its acts was therefore lost sight of.
A committee was appointed to draft and
present resolutions on the death on Friday
of Charles w. Fields OF South Omaha, one

tion since 1864 has vote counted for so
much as 1t will this year. We are going
through grave public problems now, similar
In marked degree to those of 1864. l be-
lieve that after the votes are counted on the

Der of former populists who had become

over the county it looked like republican
year. He directed attention to the salts
factory operations of the new primary law.
OF which he is the author and said that it
is in successful operation in several other
states.
A general discussion of prevailing political
conditions disclosed that every member OF

fecting school matters, as framed by Sena-
tor Van Dusen, intended to require the
registration of women and contains pro-
vision clearly requiring it. But this law
failed to repeal or amend the previous law
which was to the effect that women could
vote by simply taking the customary oath
as to qualifications before a Judge of cleo
ton. On this ground the city attorney holds
that women who have not and who do not
register may vote for candidates for the
school board. State Superintendent jackson,
acting under a provision of the statutes
making him the final authority on points of
school law not already decided in the courts,
has handed down decision that all women
must register. Mr.. Connell, however, says
he has no doubt that all women who wish
will be allowed to vote on election day re-
gardlees of registration. but he states that it
would do no harm to register.
