CROP CONDITIONS.
The Report of the Weather Bureau TO,
the Week Ending Monday.

The Report of the Weather Bureau for
the Week Ending Monday.
The week was warm one for the
season. Except for three days the
weather was showery, with scattered
heavy rains on the Sth and 9th in the
southwest and along the Minnesota
river. In the three northern counties
there we're heavy rains on the 1st, and
since then there have been rains which
have delayed, or entirely suspended
fax cutting, threshing, haying, and in
some places even plowing. In the
southern two-thirds of the State the
rains were light till the Sth, and con-
siderable progress has been made in
finishing the shock threshing, cutting
corn and flax, and making hay from
the good crop of late wild grass.
Nearly all the flax in the southern half
of the State, except the latest, is cut,
and there seems chance for the very
latest to mature. The splendid corn

shock. Potatoes are not as promising
as usual; where the tubers are best
there are not many in a hill, and in
some places there are complaints of
rotting.. Flowing is we'll advanced ex-
cept in the southeast, where the ground
has been very dry and hard. There is
not much threshing from the stack
yet. In regions where most of the
grain is stacked, and in places where
the shocked grain is all threshed, the
threshing machines are idle, while
other work is going on. Winter wheat
is being seeded in the small area in
the southeast where this crop is grown.
Pastures are generally very good.
Millet and fodder corn are splendid,
and they are being secured. Mime
sofa apples belong generally to the fall
varieties, though with proper care

That Good Roads Meeting.

The good roads meeting held in the
Jesmer opera house last Saturday
afternoon was not so we'll attended by
the business men as it should have
been, only five of those doing business
on Main street being present. The
farmers were there, though, about one
hundred participating in the meeting.
G. H. Rines presided as chairman and
talks were given by several of those
present. Mr.. Dunn was unable to at
tend, but a letter from him Offering
$3.50 was read and was we'll received.
Among those who spoke were C. A.
Dickey, Robert Shaw, c. T. johnson,
Mr.. Thoma, N. p. Jesmer, J. S. Mac
Donald, and Mr.. Mallotte.
The farmers were all willing to con-
tribute and some Of the towns said if a
concerted movement Was made they
would ask but little financial aid from
the village. N. E. Jesmer was the
only merchant who made an offer and
he said he would give 500 or 5000,
whatever the rest Of the merchants
gave and those present felt that Mr..
Jesmer was indeed a friend of the good
roads movement.
A committee was appointed to inter.
view the different people interested to
ascertain how much could be raised,
consisting of the following gentlemen
c. T. johnson, S. M. Orton, Robert
Shaw, E. F. Douglas and Louis Rust.
The committee will report at a meet
ing to be held at the same place Sep.
tember 20.
The meeting then adjourned and the
farmers discussed the matter among
themselves, considerable interest be-
ing manifested. The ball has been
set rolling and should be kept rolling
until every road IN this vicinity is per-
manently improved. .-

Gov. Lind Compliments Our Boss.

=
Referring to the Duluth & Iron Range
land grant in his speech Of acceptance
delivered in the ST. Paul auditorium
last Thursday evening, Gov. Lind paid
the State auditor this handsome COM
pliment: ''In this matter and in all
other matters in which the discharge
OF my duties has required the cooper
alton of the State auditor, it is only
fair to that officer that I should say at
this time that he has co-operated with
me with an efficiency and in spirit of
zeal for the public good that deserves
this acknowledgment at my hands,"
Gov. Lind also paid well-merited
tribute to State Treasurer Koerner.
Commenting on Gov. Lind's REFER
ence to Messrs. Koerner and Dunn, the
St. Paul Neeos editorially remarks:
''BRoTHER OFFICERS.
1t is not often in these strenuous
times that it is given to us to listen to
the praises of an official of one politi-
cal party voiced by another official of
opposite faith.
Therefore many people in the Audi
tOrium were surprised the other even
ing when Gov. Lind. in his most earn
est manner, said that State Auditor
Dunn was an excellent and painstaking
official who toiled for the public good,
a nd that State Treasurer Koerner was
a treasurer to be proud of.
No more sincere compliment has
been paid those gentlemen since the
people did them the honor of. re-elect-
ing them on their records.
Gov. Lind is chary of his praises,
and if Messrs. Dunn and Koerner did
not fully deserve any words of com.
mendation he could utter, he would
not have said as much as he did.
This State never has had more
capable. hard-headed and intelligent
officer than ''Bob'' Dunn. His rugged
honesty, his keen intelligence and his
ready grasp of large questions, added
| to a tremendous capacity for the hand.
ling of details have saved the State
thousands of dollars and brought his
department-really the most important
in the capitol-to such state of eff
cheney that it is the envy of all the de.
partments.
The same is true of Treasurer Koer.
ner and his Office. His intelligent con.
servatisln in the handling of the States
money and the wise fnanciering which
has kept the commonwealth safe from
losses of any sort have made him to be
regarded with respect By fnanciers as
well as by the commona1ty. :.x@
| ~ In paying those officials the tribute
he did Gov. Lind was better than com
plimentary: He was just.

Evans. They had passed the Winder
Building and were nearing Pennsylvania
avenue when Policeman Evans stopped
to speak to some one. The sergeant had
gone but few PAGES when a hatless man
ran out of the Winder Building and cried
Murder" The two policemen ran to the
building and found Mcdonald sitting on
bag of cement with a pistol in one hand
and an open pocket knife in the other.
They saw that his condition was critical
and sent him to the Emergency Hospital
In an Adams Express wagon in charge
Of Bicycle Policeman Cass. The witness
then told how they had taken charge of
the Office pending the arrival of the Coro-
ner.
Policeman Charles A. Evans thought it
was about five minutes past when he
heard the cry of murder and corrobor-
ated Sergeant Sullivan in every other par
ticular. He further said that after ar
resting Mcdonald he asked him what he
had done and received the reply: Il did
ii and suppose I'm done for"
The weapon was produced and is

fred. The others were all accounted for.

senger, gave testimony of minor impor-
shooting replied: 81 didn't see none and
didn't want to see none the way those
balls were flying"
Hanson WeaTer. residing at 1914 Q Street
northwest. who is employed in the tele-
phone room across the hall from the Aud
itor's Office. testified that on hearing the
first shot he ran to the assistance OF Mr..
Morris without any hesitation, but that
all was over before anything could be done.
This finished the testimony, and after
about ten minutes delberation the jury
returned a verdict to the effect that
Frank H. Morris came to his death from
the effects of a gunshot wound from a
revolver held in the hands of Samuel Nc
Donald, and recommended that he, Nc
Donald, be held to await the action of the
grand jury.
Late last night it was reported at the
Emergency Hospital that McDonalds
condition was about the same as it had
been during the day. The physicians ct
that time anticipated no immediate change
for the worse
