WHY CATTLE ARE HIGH.

L.#
An examination Of the statistics re-
Gently issued by the department of ag-
riculture in regard to cattle in the
United States shows to a considerable
degree why the price of cattle is up.
During the past ten years there has
been a steady decrease in the number
of cattle, not including mich cows, in
this country, the total dropping from
26,S49,O24 in 1889 to 25,SOO,OOO in 1899.
In round numbers our beef stock has
decreased about 80 per cent within a
decade, against an approximate in
crease in u population of 80 per
cent. Then the Australian drouth of
several years ago threw the burden of
supplying Europe with beef upon this
country, thus making an abnormal
drain upon our markets and the PROS
poets are that it may continue for some
years to come.
Another feature in this connection
Is that high prices are mostly con-
fined to first class beefs-those that
contain a large proportion of Short
horn or Hereford, ETC., and known as
high grade stock. This of course will
give an impetus to the stockman to
raise this grade Of cattle, and in doing
SO, he will be less able to raise any
great surplus over the market de-
mand at least for a few years.

pleted before clearing the calendar.
This afternoon the Muenter habeas

CAN'T sW1NDLE THE FARMERs.

CAN'T SWINDLE THE FARMERS.
Judge Glaspell at Jamestown has de-
cided that the firm of Porter, Wilcox
4 Co., of Adrian, Mich, cannot collect
a note for $4,000, signed by a number
Of Wells county farmers. The note
was secured by a person named
Wnithed. who circulated through the
valley of the Jim.
The plan was to form n stock COM
pany IN a given neighborhood. He
circulated around with a book con-
tanning on one page a picture Of a Per-
cheron horse and an agreement to form
a stock company to purchase such a
morse. On the other and opposite
page would be printed a blank form of
promissory note and underneath that
three columns for signatures. The
thing was so arranged that when the
farmers signed what looked like an
agreement to form a stock company.
the second leaf could be detached as it
was perforated beneath the binding.
When the blanks We're filled up a note
was in evidence, and usually for So. 900
which would at once be sold or trans
ferred to some innocent banker.
Usually Il horse was delivered to the
slgners and often proved to be of little
or no value.
In the case just tried the plaintiffs
sought to show that they we're limo
cent holders of the note in due course
OF business and without notice of any
thing wrong in the original DEAL. They
also claimed that the defendants were
negligent in signing n paper that could
be changed into a promissory note, but
the court thought otherwise and held
that the farmers were not negligent in
signing the book, because the paper
was not then a note and it required
the commission of the criminal act of
forgery to alter the paper into a note;
and moreover, that a banker who takes
a note for $4,000 signed by ten farm
ers in North Dakota, payable in the
fall, for a stallion, is guilty Of contrib
utory negligence in not investigating
the paper before purchasing.

STORE WAS BURNED.
Dry Goods Store Of w. T: Best De-
stroyed Completely by Fire
Monday Night.
Flames Supposed to Have Originated
from an Explosion of Coal Gas
from q Stove.
Store a Total Wreck and Building
Partially Distinguishes is
Nearly $4,000.

The dry goods establishment OF W.
I. Best was destroyed by fire Monday
night. The store is located in the
Griffin building OIL Main street, in the
center of the row Of new brick build
ings. The interior Of the store was
Quilted by the flames and the building.
itself is a wreck except for the front.
The total loss on stock and building
will be about $4,000.
Inc origin of the fire is a mystery,
although TIE most reasonable explain
alton is that the store was filled with
gas from the Ignite stove with which
it was heated and that this was ignited
by q spark from the stove, the flames
communicating rapidly to piles of in
f1ammable articles piled on either side
Of the store and to the curtains and
other hangings through the store. The
rapidity with which the flames spread
was remarkable. Mr.. Best a in
the store not than half an hour
before the flames We're discovered and
there was no sign of fire. He was
returning from a lodge meeting with
several OTHER persons and stopped in
the store a moment to secure a paper
he had left there.
Nor was any sign of fire noticed by
several other persons who passed the
store at nearly the same time.
The ire was noticed first through
the smoke that rolled up through the:
floor of the Eppinger building adjoin-
Ing on II east. Senator and Mrs.
McGillivray and Mr.. and Mrs. Law
renee who have rooms in the block
investigated and when they reached
the street saw that the interior of. the
Best establishment was in flames. An
alarm was at once given and when
the department responded, the win
dows in front had fallen out and the
interior of the store was a furnace.
Their was some delay in securing
water, and by the time a stream was
directed on the flames, the fire had.
eaten through into the roof, which was.
so constructed that the flames kept an
obstinate hold, and were eXtinguished
with difficulty. There was some con-
Germ lest the flames be communicated
through the windows in the adjoining
buildings, but the firemen confined the.
fire to h n building and did very
good work.
The loss OF the Best stock is total,
it having all been destroyed. The
ouilulns was a one story brick, with g.
two story front elevation between two
party walls. The interior and roof
We're nearly completely destroyed.
The insurance on the stock was.
