THE
new YORK WORLD,
THRICE-A-WEEK EDITION.

Practically Daily at the price Of Weekly.
The striking and important events
of the last year have established the
overwhelming value of The THRICE-A-
WEEK WORLD to every reader. For
an almost nominal sum it has kept its
ubscribers informed of the progress
of all our wars and, moreover, has
reported them as promptly and fully
as it 1t were a daily. With our inter-
ests still extending throughout the
world, with our troops operating in
the Philippines, and the great Presi-
Dental campaign, too, at hand, it's
value is further increased.
The motto of The THR1CE-A-W WEEK
WORLD is improvement. It strives
each year to be better than it was the
year before, and public confidence in
it is shown by the fact that it now Cir
culates more than twice as many pap
ers every week as any other newspaper,
not daily, published in America.
We offer this unequaled newspaper
and WILLMAR TRIBUNE together one
year for $1.70.
The regular subscription price of the
two papers is 81.

Under the provisions of the bill the

IN the island. Upon American goods
shipped to Porto Rico, consisting of
a duty of Is per cent of the general
rate under the Dingley law, and every
penny of the money raised by the i'm
position of this duty is devoted to the
maintenance of local government in
Porto Rico.-Moorhead Independent.
We don't know which to admire the
most-the. brazen audacity of a man
in daring to publish such an outrag-
eous falsehood as that contained in
the first statement, or the fearful and
wonderful grammatical ability dis
played in the second sentence. The
Porto Rican tariff is like rusty gun;
it works in both directions. It also
seems to tangle up it's defenders so
that they can't even write Ineligible

N. J. Walen and Martin Olson had
quite a serious runaway Wednesday
evening on their way home from Will
mar resulting in serious injuries to
the team belonging to the former,
which they were driving, When they
were between Kandiyohi and Willmar
one of the lines broke, and as the
horses were going at quite a lively
gait it was impossible to stop them.
After circling around considerable the
'buggy was tipped over, throwing the
occupants out, and the team finally
ran into barb wire fence. One of
the horses was very badly cut in the
upper part of the leg and had to be
left with farmer residing near the
place of the accident The other
horse escaped with a few slight
scratches. The occupants of the buggy
received no iujuries.-Atwater Repub-

The presidential vote in this state
will be closer than it was four years
ago.-Chicago Tribune.
This acknowledgment from a re-
publican paper concerning the situa-

pie are not satisfied with McKinley's

vote be closer? Bryan has not

B0tRS WIN AGAIN.
Capture five Companies Of British Troops
Near Bethany.


London, April 6.-Lord Roberts re-
ports that FIVE companies OF British
troops have been captured by the
Beers near Bethany. The follow
ing is the text OF his dispatch to
the war office announcing the cap
ture:
"Bloemfontein, April 5.-Another
unfortunate occurrence has occurred,
resulting. l fear, In the capture Of
party OF infantry consisting OF three
companies OF the Royal Irish fusileers
and two companies OF the Ninth reg
iment of mounted infantry. near Red
dersburg. a little eastward OF the
Bethany railway station within a
few miles OF this place. They were
surrounded by q strong force OF the
enemy. with four or five guns. The
detachment held out from noon on
April 3 until April at Q u. M, and
then apparently surrendered, for 1t Is
reported that the firing ceased at
that time. Immediately after heard
the news, during the afternoon OF
April 3, ordered Gatacre to proceed
from Springfontein, his present head
quarters, to Reddersburg. with all
possible speed, and I dispatched the
Cameron HIghlanders hence to Beth
any. He arrived at Reddersburg at
1920 a. m, without opposition. but
could get no news Of the missing de-
tachment. There can bs no doubt
that the whole party have been made
prisoners.

Money in Circulation.

One OF the Democratic predictions that
failed OF iulhllment was the assertion made
four years ago that Republican success at
the polls meant currency contraction and
a fall in the prices OF all commodities. The
subsequent proceedings have been the very
reverse Of these alarming predictions.
According to the official government re-
ports, the per capita circulation dwindled
away during President Cleveland's last
term as follows:
1894 1896 1896
$242s $22.93 s2l.10
The Republican administration came in
TO power on March 4, 1897. and the off,
cial per capita circulation gives the follow
ing result:
1897 1898 1899
s22.49 $24.7l sf55o
These are interesting facts for those who
look upon the amount OF money in circu-
la'ion as proof OF the prosperity OF the
American people.

time had they received no cancellations.
These latter have come into notice some.
what, but they have not been sufficient as
Jet to cause any anxiety. and a good
active business 10 in progress making up
these goods ordered. During the fall the
wool market was In a very excited posi.
tion, with buyers all anxious TO get sup.
plies, both for mill use and on speculation.
Since December the wool market has
quieted down, and after four months OF
slow trade prices on tho raw material
have weakened considerably from the high
values in November. The mills, particu.
larly the larger ones. filled themselves up
with wool during the fall excitement. and
the only reason Tor the weakness since has
been due to the Tact that these same mills
were temporarily out Of the market as
buyers. While the mills have been light
buyers OF wool during the past four months,
they have been heavy consumers, and,
with machinery running full, are doing
more than anything else would do TO
strengthen the wool market later. The
time is drawing near when these large
holdings OF woods by the mills will be
gone, and then. with demand again
started. values may take iirmer turn for
the raw material. The worlds wool con.
dtions are firm, with little prospect Of the
next clip materially changing values. II
raw wool maintains a firm tone there is
little prospect OF goods weakening. and
future supply and demand will control the
market. Dress woolens are in n strong
position. with the mills busy aud fall
orders showing fair volume OF business.
Fancies for all have been ordered very
conservatively IA yet. the demand being
principally for plain fabrics, and the busi
ness booked thus far pertains largely to
this character. The fact that importa-
tions Of foreign goods have been curtailed
largely by the high tariff has one much to
increase the business OF domestic mills and
accounts for good part OF the activity
that has been noted. There is little pros.
pect Of cheaper wool when the mills are
again forced to buy, and this should keep
good values steady at about the present
basis OF cost.

MURDERER PtP0 HANGED.
The First Legal Hanging ia Valley County
Occurred Saturday Last.

Choteau. April 7.-Wn. Pepo was
hanged here this morning for the
murder Of Julius Plath In June. lS9S,
The drop fell Mt 600 and at 6:2l Pepo
was pronounced dead by the physi-
clans In attendance, Drs. Al. Cooper
and Thomas Brooks. The condemn.
ed man died protesting his innocence
OF the crime for which lie paid the
penalty, his last words being:
II have nothing to say. You are
hanging an innocent man."
Pepo's last hours before going to
the scafiold were spent in sleep. He
went TO bed at midnight and slept
soundly to within half an hour Of the
time OF execution. The sheriff had to
awaken him twice before he was
wide awake enough to get up. His
last letter was written To Rev. Il. C..
Cunningham, the Methodist pastor,
thanking him for his kindness and
stating that he was innocent. Rev.
Cunningham was Pepo's spiritual ad-
wiser, and although the condemned
man proiessed no creed, he did pro-
fess christianity and expressed the
opinion that he was going straight
to Jesus"
Sheriff Hagen adjusted the moose
and cap and a deputy sprung the
trap. causing Pepo's body to be
jerked upward two or three feet. A
four hundred pound weight was used
aud Pepo's neck was broken. The
execution was a success In every par.
ticular. About fifty invited people
were present.
The remains Of Pepo were buried
at o'clock this afternoon, Rev. Gun
ningham conducting The services.

WANTS TO BE PRESIDENT.
Admiral Dewey q Candidate, But Not Sure
Concerninq His Party.

Washington, April 4.-Dewsy today con-
frmed his interview with the New York
World announcing his candidacy for presi.
dent. He refused to make any further
statement. The greatest interest was man.
ifested In official and other circles by the
announcement made by Admiral Dewey
in the published interview. His home in
Rhode Island avenue was beseiged all the
morning by newspa per representatives who
were anxious to ascertain any additional
information which might be Forthcoming
regarding the adniral's intentions and
plans for the future. To all he extended q
cordial greeting, but he indicated that for
the present at least there was nothing to
add to what had already been published
concerning his willingness to stand for the
presidential office should people be elected
to nominate him.
Naturally the chiei point OF inquiry was
as to which OF the great political parties
Admiral Dewey would be the candidate OF,
but to questions OF this character, the re-
plies indicated that no positive determin.
alton had been reached. There are no
definite plans as to the future" said msm-
Der OF the official household when nsked
for Information on that subject. None OF
the officials or naval officers at the navy
department care to express publ ely any
new opinion as to the admiral's announce.
ment. but il 10 plain to be zee that the
announcement created profound surprise
10 every circle.
The impression prevails that regardless
Of the outcome OF the admirals movement
from political point OF view, his entrance
into the arena OF politics is n determine.
tion Of his activity in the navy. Not that
it 10 believed that his retirement is i'm.
pending. but it is felt, that, engrosssd as he
would be in his other aspirations, the ad.
miral will not be able to eparethe time now
necessary for the discharge OF purely naval
duties. II il said he practically indicated
his purpose to withdraw from active naval
work, in a conversation recently with an
intimate friend, and brother officer.
