Bought a Ranch.

n. P. Rasmussen, Barnes county's
we'll known farmer spent Tuesday IN
Jamestown. He has bought section
OF land north of Cleveland, IN Stuts-
man county, with the intention OF put
ting in few head OF stock later. He
is intending to drive stock from Barnes
county to the hills in the spring, return
ing them to the farm in the fall for win
terinR. He says that enough feed for
the winter can be had at present By feed
ing straw mixed with millet and corn
fodder. Corn can be drllled and large
crops uf fodder raised. This makes the
best of feed if cut when it reaches cer-
tain growth. He Gays he summer fall
lows 400 or 500 acres each year by grow
ing millet and corn on the land, which
ls about equal to summer falIow He
raises hogs on corn, feeding them in the
field when the corn has matured as
much as 1t will. Mr.. Rasmussen says
be expects to see May wheat selling for
considerable less than at present and
does not think there will be much profit
IN wheat for numb ber of years at least.
He views the prospect of profits from
grain with dubious eye, as machinery,
twine and supplies needed have all ad-
vanced, while wheat remains low.
There is little encouragement for
change in this condition for some time.
His opinion is that the trusts which are
fostered by the tariff and protected by
the failure of officers elected to enforce
the antitrust laws will put goods up so
high that consumption Will faI! OFT and
the trusts lollapse.

ON TO LADYSMITH

Relief.
In Spite Of Government Alle-

the Subject.
Durham Special Says There
Was Severe Fighting on
Sunday.

LONDON, Feb. 6.-The war office state
ment that it has received no confirlna-
ton of the report that General Butler
has recrossed the Tugela river has failed
to shake public belief that operations OF
tremendous importance are proceeding
at the Tugela, and it is thought that
either the denial was prompted by de-
sire to keep the military movements as
secret as possible until something is ac-
complished or that General Butler IS
keeping the home officials in the dark
pending results. 1t is obviously ex-
tremely difficult to extract the truth
from the conflicting statements shroud-
ing Buffers movement. But most
of the commentators agree that the ag.
gregate of the items tends to confirm the
belief that movements Of importance are
in progress.
1t is true that the correspondents at
! General Buffers headquarters convey
the impression that his main force is
still south of the Tugela river,
but it is easily conceivable that
the dispatches are SO censored
as to convey false impression. Posi-
| bly,, though dated Sunday and Sunday
night, the dispatches We're written prior
to the movements reported to have COM
menced Friday This has already hap
pened Oh various occasions, dispatches
being retained by the censor and redated
when actually released.
Whatever may be the actual situation,
| there seems no doubt that General Bul'
ler's preparations for fresh attempt tc
relieve Ladysmith were completed
Thursday or Friday, and though the
start was possibly deferred from the
| date first selected, it will not be long be-
fore it is definitely lf'wn that General
Buffers forces are a gain fighting thei,
way towards Ladysmith. Those, how
ever who expect General Butler to reach
the beleaguered town Monday nigh
seem to have forgotten the presence O.
the Beers. The best informed people
while sanguine, fully realize that a Brit

been received, and plans for thirty
eight OF these will be completed before
tie time for spring planting to begin.

field inspection by the forest officials.
The treeless state have been quickest to
avail themselves Of assistance, the num-

IRISH CHEER
Nationalist Leader Moves to Close the "ar

in south Africa.
LONDON, Feb. S.-John Redmond,
chairman Of the United Irish party was
loudly cheered by all sections OF the
Irish members when he rose in the house
of commons to move an amendment 70

the throne, representing the time hau
arrived to bring the war to conclusion

dence of rle rransvaal and the Orange

abhorred this war and intended, so far
as possible, to maintain the lndepen-
dence Of the republics, defended with
such herolsm.
Mr.. Redmond admitted that when the
empire was involved in complications
feeling Of hope and satisfaction stirred
the majority Of the Irish at home and
abroad. But. he continued, the sym.
pathies Of the Irish would still have
been pro- -Boer, even if England had not

| ton to rebuke England, as she would

| declared that the overwhelming opinion
of leading American statesmen was hos,

said the "unanimous disapproval OF the
world demonstrated that the war was
unjust and it ought, therefore, to be
stopped"
AS to whether the prospects Of home
rule were adversely affected by the at

he thought Ireland had nothing to lose
and everything to gain by raising hel
voice on the side Of justice and liberty,
Mr.. Patrick Joseph Power, member

KITCHENER AND ROBERTS.
South African Commander and CHIEF OF
staff Off for the Front.

LONDON, Feb. S.-While the suspense
regarding General Buffers movements
and the operations affecting the fate of
Ladysmith continues unrelieved even by
the vaguest dispatches, there comes
from other quarters interest news in
the announcement that Field Marshall
Lord Roberts and his chief of staff, Ma
jor General Lord Kitchener, have left
for the front. AS this information was
held up for several hours by the censor,
it seems to indicate that an important
movement is on foot.
Beers After Gatacre.
A dispatch from Sterkstroom an
nounces that the Beers are attacking
General Gatacre from two directions.
Firing was proceeding between the out
posts. 4 delayed Sterkstroom dispatch,
dated Monday, Feb. 5, says that body
of troops left the camp Feb. and that
important developments were expected.
1t is quite probable that this explains
Lord Roberts departure and that the
commander-in chief wishes either to be
present at or supervise the long intended
movement by General Gatacre to join
forces with General kellykenny, and
thence strongly reinforce General
French, completing the latter's work at
Colesberg and establishing without fear
of serious opposition the advanced posi-
ton for the main movement. This, Of
course, is greatly supposition, and
it can be confidently said that
the departure of Lord Roberts and
Lord Kitchener for the front does
not indicate that the main advance
has begun. The commanders will prob
ably be back in Cape Town within a
short time. It is pointed out that the
term going to the front must not be in
terpreted into the idea that great
movement upon Pretoria, by way Of
Bloemfontein, has seriously commenced.
1t will be month or perhaps much
longer before this can be brought about.
In the meanwhile the preliminary
steps are likely to iven the campaign
with sharp fighting, and news from
Sterkstroom, Thebus and Colesburg is
eagerly awaited.
Supposition regarding General Butler
owing to lack Of all definite information
is as futile as ever

A JEWELRY STORE ENTERED.
By Two Unknown Crooks, Who Pre-.

Of Man and Boy.

The frightened quickness Of
youngster in getting out of the way
prevented the successful holding up OF
William Dorer the Bellaire jeweler, at
his store on Thlrty.second street, In
the over-the-rlver town, last night, at
$3.50 o'clock. At the time there were
but two persons in the store, Mr.. Dorer
and his twelve-year-old son. Will Do,
rer.
Two well dressed young men entered
the store, and one of the pair exhibited
broken gold ring, inquiring OF Mr.. Do
rer what 1t would cost to repair the
break. Just as Mr.. Dorer reached for
the ring, with the intention of exam
iEing it. the two strangers flashed re-
volvers. one covering Mr., Dorer and
the other directing his shooting iron
at the youngster. and at the same time
commanded both to hold up their
hands and remain silent.
The boy, however, in his fright,
recklessly ducked under the counter.
One of the thieves walked along tho
counter towards the rear OF the store,
Intending to open the gate and take
care Of the youngster. but the latter
had made his way forward and slipped
out Of the store via the front door. taxi
Ing shelter behind n telephone pole that
stands In the street in front Of the
establishment at the corner Of an al

Seeing that the boy had got out of
their, clutches. and would doubtless
sound the alarm. the thieves lost their
nerve and ran out Of the store. One
ran past the corner OF the alley, and
young Dorer very coolly proceeded to
trip up the fellow who went head over
heels. and landed on hands and feet
In the middle OF the street. losing his
revolver In the midst Of his lnvolun-
tary acrobatlc performance. -
The other thief ran across the street,
and stopped for IN instant, long enough
to fire one shot ut Mr.. Dorer, who had
Just emerged from the store, and was
crying out the alarm with all the
strength Of his lungs. The shot was
but lily directed. and struck the steps
on which the jeweler stood.
Mr.. Ddrer. seeing the gun lying In
the street. picked It up. and was about
to offer battle to the desperadoes, when
they took to their heels, going up tho
alley. Both Of the thieves lost their
hats IN the scramble.
Marshal Johnston and his officers soon
put In m appearance, but the thieves.
had disappeared. and up to n late hour
last night no trace Of them had been
discovered. II was thought they had
