jamestown, June 16.-The enumer-
ator has finished the asylum census
and finds some interesting statistics
about the inmates. OF the 344 patients
only % were native born Americans
OF the number there were from Nor
way, 2S11a per cent; Germany S-5 per

the various states Wisconsin has sent

tive from North Dakota The inher-
ited insanity of many of the patients,
natives Of foreign countries, is appar-

United States by officials OF foreign
countries and have been sent west as
Immigrants There is no doubt but
that the United States lis caring we'll

Sheep Worms.

The full treatment recommended by
the Ohio experiment station for worms
in sheep or lambs is to put gallon Of
iaxseed in a cheesecloth sack and
place this in kettle with two gallons
Of water and let it steep for two hours.
Then remove the bag and let it drain
thoroughly into the kettle. When the
faxseed tea is about as warm as fresh
~ drawn milk, put four ounces into a
bottle and aGd common tablespoon
full of gasoline for each sheep Of so to
so pounds weight. Shake well for
minute or two, then turn into the
drenching bottle and give to the sheep.
Have the sheep set up on it's rump
and held between the knees, taking
care not to throw the head farther back
than the, line of the back. The sheep
should be housed in the evening and
not fed before 10 o'clock, when the
dose may be given. Allow them to re-
main three hours longer without food
evening. Repeat this treatment for
three days, and in weeks time give
three days more Of the treatment and
again repeat at end Of ten days more,
always giving the medicine after about.
16 hours fasting and fasting about
three hours after giving it. The fax
seed tea need not be made fresh each
time, as the gasoline mixes better with
it and passes down from mouth and
throat to stomach. g

Rules For Horse Traders.

Several weeks ago a Memphis man
saw a fine buggy horse which he
thought he wanted, says The Scimitar.
He located the owner and asked the
price. ''One fifty" was the reply.
After looking the animal over closely
and trying her speed he concluded it
was a good trade and without more
ado wrote a check for the amount. The
next day he found that the mare was
as blind as bat, but this did not him
der her speed nor detract from her
general appearance. He drove the an
imal for several weeks and succeeded
in attracting the admiration of another
lover of horsefesh, who made pro-
posal to purchase. WELL" said the
Memphian, 81 gave one fifty for her,
but will let you have her for one
sixty-fve." u - ..q.ss
The prospective buyer looked the an
imal over and concluded he had bar
gain. He paid over the money and
took the mare. When the animal was
unhitched, tha first thing she did was
to run against post and then by way
of emphasizing the fact that she was
blind fell over barrel. The next day
the buyer came back to the Memphian
with blood in his eye.
Colonel, you know that mare you
sold me-" he began. ''Wen, she's stone
blind"
II know it." replied the colonel, with
an easy air.
''You didn't say anything to me about
it, said the purchaser, his face red
dening with anger.
''Well, I'll tell you," replied the colo
mel. "That fellow who sold her to me
didn't tell me about 1T, and just con-
cluded that he didn't want it known
The new owner took his medicine
and is now on the lookout for friend
on whom he can even things.

MORE TROUBLE. S

Grand Forks. June: 16.--Bosard &
Bosard are attorneys for the enforce
ment league, against the bondsmen of
the Pembina county druggists for the
violation OF the aw regarding the dis
position Of Intoxicating liquors. An
effort will be made to convict twelve
of the so-called druggists at an early
date. The league will proceed against
violaters in all parts Of the state. The
Pembina county cases are similar to
those Of Walsh county. At Grafton,
the druggists have surrendered their
permits, and are willing to compro-
mise by the payment Of $500. s5a5,
The league will hereafter bring suit
on the bond or against the bondsmen
of the suspected parties whoever they
may be. and where conviction is OBJ
tanned a forfeiture Of the bond will be
necessary The recent action of the
league In bringing suit on the bond
may be attributed to a decision Of
Nudge G. ]. Fisk. who held that injunc-
tions served upon the druggists would
not hold, if the said druggists held
permits. The league through Attor-
neys Bosard & Bosard will appeal to
the supreme court for a further decis-
ion, and upon that depends the future
method Of procedure. The decision
Of the higher court will be OF interest
in all parts Of the state. The decision
handed down from the district court
is the result of the Injunction proceed
ings Instituted against the Langdon
Z druggists.

EARLY PRAIRIE FIRE.

Dawson, N. D., June 4 "A prairie
fire started at Dawson and burned rap
Idly for some six miles north of the
track. 4 was only put out by the
Dagoes working on the track after d
sharp fight. No damage was done
but had the grass been high there
would have been. 1t is a. remarkable
thing to have d prairie fire occur IN the
middle of June. There is little Of no
hay in the slonghs and SO no claims
for hay losses can be made. A rain
of about two hours occurred at Daw-
son which will help the fax and hay
crops but will nos do much toward saw

i Philadelphia, June ,16.-The republi-

day, a practically continuous session
being held from seven till late at
night with the intention then to ad-
journ sine die. Three contested cases
are yet to be settled, that from Della
ware being the most important; the
others involving delegates at large and
from three districts in Texas and one
district of Virginia. AS soon as set
tied the committee will take up the
question of temporary and permanent
organization.
AS far as can be ascertained there is
no change in the plan of making VOL
colt (Colorado) temporary chairman,
and Lodge (Mass.) permanent chair
man. Hanna will remain chairman oil
the committee and the, platform will
be that Of the Ohio declarations.
It has been decided there shall be no
change made at the present convention
of the basis, of representation of states
in future conventions. 1t is said word
has gone forth that the administration
fears the colored vote in the Northern
states might be alienated if the col
ored non-voting population of the
south should be deprived of any part
of the power it has had so long in
party conventions. i .+5...' rs.

ELEVATORS MUST PAY.
JUDGE FISK FOLLOWS SUPREME
. COURT DECISION IN AN ELEVA-
TOR TAX CASE. .s

7 IOR lAA CASE. 'ts.. I4s5$t
Grand Forks, n. D., June 16.-Judge
Fisk, Of the First judicial district,
handed down a decision which will be
of great interest to the taxpayers, not
only in Grand Forks county, but
throughout the state of North Dakota.
1t was in the case of the Minnesota &
Northern Elevator Co. VS.. the County
of Grand Forks, and involved the va
lidity or constitutionality of the 1899
elevator tax law That the law pro-
vides that all grain found in elevators
April of each year shall be taxed
against elevator companies regardless
of ownership and that in cases where
the elevator company is, not the owner
of said grain they shall be compelled
to pay the tax, but hold a lien against
the grain for une amount of the tax
and SO recover from me owner.
The opinion rendered by Judge Fisk
sustains the coDstitutionality Of the
tax law and is in accordance with the
opinion handed down recently by the
supreme court of North Dakota in a
case that came up from Trail county
and was tried before Judge Pollock of
Fargo some time ago. a..
The amount involved in this county
alone was nearly 81 900 and when it
is considered that there are many
other elevator companies in this coun-
ty that operate in nearly every county
in the state, it will be readily seen that
the amount involved will reach an
enormous total, and the, decisions re-
Gently rendered are of vital inn portance
to the taxpayers throughout the state,
as from now on all elevator companies
must pay taxes on every bushel OF
wheat in their elevators on April 1,
whether they are owners of the wheat
or not.
" The trouble with the old law was
that it permitted of a large amount OF
"uCdC IdAdLlOll, DIS Iuc SlcFd-
tor companies, in a great many in
stances would deny ownership of large
quantities of wheat found in their
houses and the farmers who did own
it refused to list it with the assessors.
The farmers throughout the state are
especially jubilant over the decision
1t is not thought by the attorneys in
this city that any appeal will be taken
from Judge Fisk's decision, as the SUI
preme court decision above referred to
and handed down but a few days ago
covers the same points.
The matter has been in litigation in
various counties throughout the state
ever since the law was passed and both
the state and the elevator companies
have spent thousands of dollars test-
ing the law and it is matter of salts
faction to all that a final decision has
been reached.
