NO CALAMITY HERE.

Grand Forks Herald: It has been
said that one swailow does not make
a summer, neither will one year of
poor crops bankrupt a state or bring
even serious results to any locality
That present conditions have been I'M
favorable for this years crop can not
be denied, yet the faith of the people
in the wealth producing qualities of
North Dakota soil is, and rightly
should remain unshaken The fact
that the demand for farming lands
substantially ceased by the first of
June is no argument for lack of con-
fidence on the part of farm buyers. for
the demand always ceases about the
same time each year, and does not
again appear in evidence nutil after
crops are harvested in the 1all. and it
is for this reason that land transfers
are generally less in July and August
than at any other season. To show
that she utmost confidence is main
tanned, in lands and land value, an ex-
animation of the records will show that
during the past sixty days, there have
been fled for recoru thirty-one trans
fers OF farm lands aggregating S5S,-
1900, aside from seventeen minor
transfers; during the same time there
has also been filed y transfers of city
property with toSal consideration of
$l51, ,457. ,&
This is a remarkable showing when
everything is considered; and the fact
that In spite of short crops, our own
people are investing money at the rate
Of $75, 600 per month in city real estate,
should go far in disproving any calarl-
ity assertions.
It is not contended that there is any
boom m in real estate values; but it is
evident that there is fair demand for
good property at reasonable prices,
and prospects are good for an increased
q demand as the year grows older.

Washing gton, Aug. THE following

Chinese are entrenched east and west,
through Peitzang. The left Of the
Chinese is protected by flooded ground
and practically unassailable. The Jap
anese, English and American forces,
about 10000 strong, will attack the
Chinese on the right west of the river
and in the flank. The other forces,
Russian and French. about 1900
strong, are to attack the side between
the river and the railroad. The Chin
5ese position is apparently strong. The
army is reported ait 10000 between
sPeitzang and Kang Tsun, or the cross
ing of the road over r'the Peiho. Yang
Tsun is the objective point Our forces
are 1000 men and a battery. Cone

man. the local agent Of w. j. Barney &
Co, Of Minneapolis, land dealers, the
principal in the shooting case reported
in Sunday mornings news, was ar
raigned this afternoon before Justice
Smith on a warrant charging him with
ooting at a person with intent to
kill. Hon. Samuel Lockerby is re-
tanned as counsel for defendant. On
motion Justice Smith granted an adj
journment until Thursday of this
week and bali fixed at 81 700, which
Freeman was unable to furnish at a
late hour this morning. 81
The terrible condition of the men
shot may be understood when it is
known that 12S shot were removed
from the head and neck of Howard
Hittsman. Thomas Liene, the other
victim (shot in the back) has devel-
oped bad case of blood-poisoning and
his case is considered serious. Hits
man was member of Co. G and
served in the Philippines. &
There is said to be several peculiar
phases in connection with the affair
leading up to the shooting, which will
ea,, ,,r ~ -
probably crop out when the matter
comes before a jury. While there is
a disposition in. some directions to
make the case against Freeman a bad
one, sentiment is inclined to be turn
ing in his favor since certain facts
came out. 1t is said another charge
will result when the wounded man
.Liene is able to De out.

TROUBLE AMONG THE FINNs.

Devils Lake Inter-Ocean: Deputy
Rutten received word Tuesday that a
shooting affray had occurred among
some Finnish settlers in Lillehof town
ship several days before and succeeded
IN rounding up the refractory parties
and several witnesses for trial, which
was held before Judge Duell Wednes-
day. 1t appears that the injured party
was one Henry Johnson, new settler
from Finland. There has been exist
Ing for some time a feud among these
people who it seems still retain their
Old world customs. johnson happened
to be driving by one of his enemy's
houses inhabited by several young men
OF the same family, when a savage dog
came out, caught Johnson in the buggy
and severely bit him in several places.
SO johnson claimed. johnson fred
several shots at the dog wounding him
IN the head. The noise called out the
young men from the house, who were
enraged at what they thought john
sons brutal treatment of their doe,
Whflereupon one of the boys picked up
pltchfork and tried to run it through
Johnson. They succeeded in inflict-5
ing severe injuries on his back, at
tended by much loss of blood. The
female population OF the household
aroused by his cries also came out and

the blood flowing from cuts over his
head, "a and preventing his seeing any
thing. He was then left alone and
upon regaining consciousness renaired
TO a neighboT's house where his III
Jur1es were dressed. 1t seems, how.

nilxup and jealous fight, as the BOYS
allege that Johnson fired ait them sey-
