Editor Leader; Please grant me
space in your paper to ask a question
in connection with a few statements
in regard to cotton.
What has called forth this letter is
the different weights claimed by diff
ferent people, necessary to make a
bale of cotton.
One J. w. Mathews said 1, 200 pounds
of seed cotton made bale weighing
45O pounds, and Mr.. Mordan said
/ 800 pounds of seed cotton made a
bale weighing $50 pounds. Thomas
Crane said 900 pounds of seed cotton
made a bale weighing 4sO ponnds. j..
Il. Davis had 1855 pounds of seed cot
ton which made bale weighing 436
pounds. I, also, had 1850 pounds Of
seed cotton that mAde q bale weigh
ing 459 pounds
These bales were all made at G.. M
Sharum's gin in Guthrie.
Now, the question / wish to ask and
have answered by some old giner or
others of wide experience in handling
cotton, is what is the amount of seed
required to make a bale weighing SOC
pound lint. .--H. DAVIS.

Start Right.

To the thousands OF settlers who are now
coming into the Dakotas we want to urge
thcimportancc of beginning farming along
right lines to meet the peculiar conditions
of this country. 1t is worse than useless
to attempt Maine, Illinois or Kentucky
farming in Dakota fields. The Dakotas
have lost more wealth and more citizens
from lack of Understandings our peculiar
conditions than from all other causes
combined. The farmer who settles on
our prairics must turn his back on past
surroundings and grapple with Dakota
soil and climatic conditions Crops that
have been successfully produced here,
and farmers who have advanced in their
efforts have not been the result Of chanc-
ing anything but arc the end of a com.re-
hensivc appreciation of Dakata condi-
tons To the beginner here nothing is
more important than journal devoted to
Dakota farm interests, and in the DAKOTA
FARMER published at Aberdeen, S. d.,
this much needed thing is found. 1t is
filled from beginning to end with the
with the best practical Dakota farm
literature obtainablc. Every new settler
on Dakota plains should begin right by
subscribing for it.

General Hutton Drives the Beers From q
Strong Position.
VET RIVER, Sunday, May 6.-General
Pole.C .Carew started at daybreak yester-
day on ~ mile march. He first came
into contact with Beers holding the
river at o'clock p. IN. The British
soon had two batteries in action and
later they added two naval 9-pound-
ders, two A. and 5.inch siege
guns. The Beers fred with great
accuracy and the duel continued una
bated until sunset, and even later there
was desultory firing. It is marvellous
that nobody ON the British side was in
jured.
General Hutton started early to find
the drift on the west. When this was
discovered it proved to be strongly held
and protected by two guns. The Brit
ish speedily engaged the Beers, who en-
filaded the dismounted firing line with
a Maxim, but General Hutton pushed
forward his own pom-pom and gallop-
ing Maxim and forced the Beers to leave
the river bed. The encounter was ter
ribly hot. Later the whole British force
crossed the river, threatening the Boer
right. The Beers must have received
about the same time the news of Ham
ilton's occupation of Winburg. About
sunset detachment Of 26 Australians,
who had crept forward toward
the river bed, found themselves near o
kopje occupied by the Beers. After fir.
ing they fixed bayonets and charged,
capturing the kopje. All was done on
their own initiative. Thus night fell
Early this morning it was discovered
that the whole Boer force had fed.

Horse Thieves Caught.

A Mandan dispatch gives the follow
ing account of Sioux horse thieves recent
ly caught by the Standing Rock author
ties:
The names of the prisoners are
Frank Black Hawk, Charley Thompson,
Richard Double-rider, Albert Walker,
David Rcelstone and George Shoot Close,
All are married except David Redstone.
This gang OF thieves have been operat-
ing for some time, and it is believed that
they have stolen at least sixty head of
horses since they began operating
Frank Black Hawk is one of the men
who was implicated in the Spicer MUIR
der in Emmons county in the carly part
of 1907. 1t will be remembered that he
was in Jail at Bismarck awaiting trial for
completely in the Spicer murder at the
time that Coutlot, Holy Track and Stand
ing Bear were lynched at Millamsport.
With the two youths, Holy Track and
Standing Bear cut Of the way, no chance
was afforded to secure I conviction of
Blackhawk, and he was turned loose.
He has lived secluded since that time,
but now he turns up as a member OF a
gang of horse thieves.
The plan of working of these thieves
| has been about as follows:
They lived apart, but would meet to-
gcther and raid the horse ranches in
pairs or singly, just as they thought they
could best accomplish their purposes.
They would take horse branded "P,"
change the brand to "D" or "i<," F." brand
known as open "a" they would change
to IN" or "W,' run the horses off the
reservation, generally south away from
the range where they had been stolen,
and trade or sell them. The horses they
would get in trade they would bring
back and sell and get the cash for them.

ST. LOUIS, May 9.-One of the great
est strikes in the history of St. Louis
was inaugurated during the day, when,
in pursuance of action taken at a mass
meeting, 1895 employees of the st. Louis
Transit company went on strike to COM
pei the acceptance of their demands
formulated several days ago. Practi-
cally every car line in St. Louis is tied
up. The Suburban line, the only one
in the city not o part of the extensive
St. Louis Transit Company's system,
ran cars for several hours but later was
compelled to shut down, as their men
were pulled off the cars by strikers at
De Hodiamont and in the down town
section of the city.
One car on each of the lines converg-
ing ON Washington avenue were run
out. -Four cars got down town as
far as Sixth street, but only one went
around the loop. All were attacked by
a mob of men and boys on Washington,
at Fourth aud Fifth streets, who threw
sticks and stones. Several windows
were broken and the motormen and
conductors were injured by flying mis-
siles. A
Riot Call Was Turned In
at s o'clock from. the corner Of Broad
way and Washington and a wagon load
of police turned out to keep order, but
their efforts were in vain.
At this point motorman was hit
over tho head with club which cut q
cash in his scalp. A piece of brickbat
struck him in the mouth, lacerating his
lip and his nose was gashed by a stone.
The motorman left his car and went
into saloon for protection.
Almost at the same time young
woman, about 20 years of age, who was
riding in the car was struck on the
head and badly injured by stone
thrown through the window.
John Kohring, a 16-year-old boy, who
was in a crowd on Park avenue was
shot and seriously wounded by Con-
ductor George Mcclellan, in charge of a
car on the Park Avenue division. The
boy was removed to the city hospital
and Conductor Mcclellan was arrested.

Seybolt and Neal as to the amount Of
postal revenues in the hands of Charles
F. W. Neeley, the chief of the bureau
of finance for the postal department. in
Cuba, on April %. At that time, ac-
cording to these reports, he apparently
accounted for all sums due the govern
ment, and it is said by postofice depart
ment officials that if Neeley embezzled
postal funds he must have juggled the
figures and made false entries or else
took the money Immediately after the
balance was struck.
According to the figures at command
here, however, there is an apparent dis
crepancy between the amount Of postal
order funds as given by Mr.. Neeley and
the amount due the government. It
was stated that he had on April 2Y
$119,930, while the books here indicate
that he should have had approximately

division.
The measure was taken up soon after
the house met. It provides free home.

government shall remunerate Indian
tribes for money due them on lands
patented to settlers and pay any de.
ficiency to agricultural colleges if the
annual sales of public lands should
prove insufficient to meet the payments.
Mr.. Eddy (Minn.), in charge of the
bill, made the opening argument in
favor of the bill. Mr.. Eddy said all
party platforms had declared in favor
Of it.
Mr.. Flynn 70. T.), in advocating the
bill, said it was mistake to suppose
that it gave the settlers their homes
free. They would have to reside upon
their lands and cultivate them for five
years before securing title.
Mr.. Maddox (Ga.) opposed the bill.
He said it would cost the government
