Lots for seventeen Cents Each.

nWINoNA, Mimi, Sept S.-(speciaI.)-
Reports that have been received from
Hokah, in Houston county indicate that
houses and lots in that town are not val
ued very highly, If the prices received
at recent tax sale are to be taken as an
estimate. Some time ago the sheriff of
Houston county published through the
newspapers that a number of lots along
Lake Como and dwelling houses in the
village would be sold at auction, ewing
to the>fact that the taxes on the property
had not been paid. The sales were con-
Quoted by the county auditor Then came
one of the most ridiculous affairs known
in the history of Houston county. Lots
were sold at Ii cents apiece One woman
bought a dozen of them for that amount
per lot. and a house which rented at 81
month was sold under the hammer for
81. Those who had II cents to invest
availed themselves of the great oppcr-
tunity to become property owners. and
others who were without homes cot a
covering for what would not paw for the
nails in 1T.
There will be another tax sale next
May, when a large number OF lots and
houses will he sold 1t auction foc what
ever they will bring. regardless Of ridic-
uloHs bids which may be made.

McKinley's letter of acceptance, which
is to be published Monday, is said to be,
by members of the administration,
the strongest presentation of the Re
publican side of the issues of the present
campaign that has yet appeared.
The president has not sought TO avoid
the question of imperialism Much of
his letter is devoted to the issue raised
by his administration Of the is ands
wrested from Spain. He shows what has
been done in the way OF improving poll
teal conditions in these islands.
Attention is called 10 the steps that
have been taken towards the esta Dlish-
ment Of stable and independent govern
nent in Cuba The establishments OF a
civil government in Porto Rico in ac-
cordance with the act of congress AID
the institution of civil government in the
Philippines under the Philippine COM
mission are referred.
Another theme to which much atten-
ton is given in the letter, IS the prosper
ity o. the country under the present tariff
and monetery systems. This brings Up
the financial issue on which the presi-
dent is said to take firm stand in sup
port of tine main tenanee of the god
standard as essential to the continuance

MURDERED BY BANDlTS
LA CROSSE POLICEMAN SHOT DEAD
IN HIS TRACKS.


LA CROSSE, Wis, Sept. S.-one of the
most dastardly crimes in the history Of
La Crosse was committed about 1;30
o'clock this morning, when Patrolman
Perry Gates was shot dead by a trio of
thieves whom he was about TO arrest for
holding up a man on the La Crescent
road, leading from this city, and robbing
him Of 50.
The murderers are still at large. The
robbers who did the shooting were last
seen running toward the river and no
trace of them has since been discovered,
although thirty officers were on the
scent forty minutes after the murder had
been committed. Citizens and officers
armed with Winchesters have been scour-
ing the country for miles around, with
results. The river banks have been
patrolled since 4 O'Clock this morning.
Three miles down the river a boat was
stolen during the night and the theory is
that the bandit murderers escaped in this
to the Minnesota side Of the river
The murder was the most cold blooded
affair in the criminal history of La
Crosse county. Officers Gates and Schu-
bert had been detained to nab the three
men who held up man in Lake Crescent
The two officers drove down toward the
drawbridge which connects with the Min
nesota side and came upon three suspi-
c1ouS characters. Gates jumped out of
the buggy and told them to halt. the
three robbers lined up and each one took
a shot at Gates, every bullet taking eff
feet. He fell with his revolver in his
hand.
The horse frightened at the shots, ran
away, and Schubert was helpless In
the meantime the murderers escaped
