county being threatened with a negro
uprising which seemed 10 extend over
the entire state This was in 1876,
when political feeling ran high The
town of Edgefe.d was given over TO
rioting of all kinds, which no one
seemed able 10 control, and the homes
and even the lives of the inha bitants
were threatened. At this juncture 500

stood in great awe. gathered from no

ka" b .rself dressed in red. rode into
the village bringing terror with them
The result was complete intimida ton

other parts of the state with equal sue

INTEREST Is LESS.
Money Lenders Receive Lower Re-
wards for Capital Than Ever
Before.

ssOur Industrial and agricultural con-
ditions are more promising than they
have been for many years; probably
more so than they have ever been.
Prosperity abounds everywhere
throughout the republic. Irejoice that
the southern as well as the northern
states are enjoying full share of
these improved national conditions.
and that al are contributing so largely
to our remarkable industrial develop
ment. Mckinley.
1t Is rarely that a paragraph as strik-
ing as this has been written by the head
of the government The money lender
receives lower rewards for his capital
than if it were invested In actual bust
ness. The rates of interest are lower
than they have ever been in this eoun-
try, while those things which are pro-
duced on the farm and In the workshop
and the labor producing them have adj
vanced in value" Perhaps never be-
fore was the chief magistrate of an ad-
ministrat ton able to make such a re-
port of the success of the policy for
which he was as man, magistrate and
statesman so largely responsible

As a visible evidence of the fnan-
cial strength of this country. which
accounts for the fact that the credit
Of the United States government is
higher than that of any country, 1t
may be stated that on September I,
1900, there was in the treasury bal
ance s135, 419 900 gold in addition to
the gold reserve of $50, .0o0, and
the volume of our currency is great
er per capita than it has ever been
1t was s21.10 In 1896. It has increased
to $3.50 on July 1, 1900, and S26-s5 on
September 1, 1900. Our total money
on July 1. 1896, was 81 500, 434, s66; on
July L, 1900, it was s2,o62, Az, 40, and
s., 096, SIS, O42 on September 1, 1900.
The splendor of these figures startle
the world. The success of the admin
istration is no less striking.

The slow growth of the population Of
Arkansas affords some food for
thought The population IN 1900 Is
1-311, 564, as compared with LIPS, 1Ts in
1880, an increase of only 1925 per cent.
in the decade The rate of increase Is
only two-ffths of the rate from 1850
to 1890, when it was 40-5s per cent
and less than a fourth of what ii was
from 1870 to 1850, when 1T was 65-65
per cent. Prior to the civil war the

Are Crushed Out

Minneapolis, Oct 2a-Fire at the
Minnesota Transfer. In the Midway
district. about o'clock Sunday morn
ing. proved disastrous 10 the members
of the St Paul department, as four
members of Company No L., stationed
at Merriam Park. lost their lives,
while three more members are seri-
ously injured, and one or two may die
The killed are:
Second Assistant Fire Chief Charles
Irvine.
Lieut- Frank Eddy.
Louis Wagner
Bert Irish
The injured: Thomas ClariSin- Both
legs crushed and broken
William Peel Injured instantly.
Andrew Johnson
When the bodies were rescued from
the ruins they showed no signs OF
burning All were killed by the fall
ing walls
The fire was a bad one from the
start 1t broke out in the Hinman
slaughter house at the Minneapolis
end of the Transfer bridge. and before
the fremen could get control. the
flames spread to other buildings. caus-
ing total property loss of nearly
Sl5o, 600.
The loss of lives was occasioned by
the falling of the walls of the brick
veneered building of the Mccormick
Harvester company The building
was three stories In height and loaded
To the top with implement machinery
The fremen were nsing IL as point
of vantage. and its collapse came be-
fore anyone could naturally expect 1t.
The Hinman slaughter house was a
frame building. covering together with
the killing house. sheds. etc. about
200 square feet The fire is thought
to be of incendia-y origin
The building of the Northwestern
Lime company was also totally de
stroyed, causing loss of SO, 600, and
the loss of the slaughter house. which
was owned by j. NJ Robbins, amounts
to S:se. Ooo- The Mccormick loss is about
500. COO
The entire St Paul department was
at work on the fire, but the nature OF
the buildings and the surrounding
made it impossible to keep down the
flames They spread to the railroad
tracks. and eight empty box ears were
burned.
Despite the immense amount of water
thrown on the burning buildings, al
four were burned to the ground.
At o'clock the flames were still
going up in the air, and were plainly
visible from Minneapolis. although
the fire department had succeeded in
getting them under control, and they
were prevented from spreading any
farther
