Evidence That Quincy Brown Sold
Whisky to Certain Persons
Recently.
Brown is Bound Over to District
= Court and Bail Fixed at
S4OO.
EnoCh Russell, Questioned as to
knowledge Of Whisky, Says he
is Not an Expert.

Quincy Brown was bound over to
the district court by Justice Pearson
today for illegally selling whisky, and
bail was fixed at s4OO. Brown says he
expects to secure the amount from
Sfriends in the east. Until he secures
bail he will be kept in the county
Jail.
Wednesday afternoon Sheriff Eddy
concluded his testimony in the case
and Policeman Enoch Russell took the
stand. He corroborated the testimo-
ny Of Sheriff Eddy in regard to the
raid. By request Of States Attorney
Rose, Mr.. Russell tasted some OF the
liquid left in one Of the Green Noun
tain Bourbon bottles and said the
stuff was whisky. In answer to ques-
,ytions put by Attorney Thorp, Mr..
( Russell said he did not know the diff
ference between the different grades
Of whisky, or between fermented and
distilled liquors-was not an expert,
but had general knowledge Ct liquor
obtained through drinking the same
and noting the effect.
Chief L'Moore took the stand and
testified in regard to the raid and the
finding Of certain papers and the bot
ties. He had seen number Of thresh-
ers frequent the building occupied by
Brown at different times, and had
noticed some men partially intoxicat-
ed lettering in the vicinity. He said
the liquor in the bottles was whisky.
H. johnson testified that he had
bought whisky from the defendant in
mis- place of business. R. Hoffman
had drunk a liquid in Browns place
but could mot tell what it was. W..
Gainsforth did not know the defend
ant and had not bought anything
from him. Another witness testified
to having bought whisky from
Brown.

In a case at Fargo against Belle Nc
Cune, accused of selling intoxicating
liquors, two spoilers swore they had
drank beer in her place. At a raid
made number Of bottles Of "All

Total cost Of 100 head of year.

Total cost OF 100 head OF year.
To raise steer the second year, you
leave off the item Of interest on cost
of COW, $3.50, and one and half tons
Of hay at 40 cents per ton, making in
all s3. 40; deduct this amount from s6.40
leaving s3, the cost Of caring for a
steer the second year, and making a
two-year old steer cost S9.4O.
I would say in explanation lof the
cost Of hay, that for several years I
have kept an intemized account of
cutting and stacking the same, allow
three dollars per day for each man or
boy and team, and that forty cents
per ton has been rather over than un-
der the cost. AS the items Of cost Of
all else, except hay and shelter, is
about the same here as upon the open
range, I will allow the reader to form
his own conclusions which place to
risk. am satisfied to take my chances
here. While I put the amount of hay
per head at three tons, have seldom
found it necessary to feed that
amount; but with all that amount OF
hay on hand in the fall, stockman
can feel safe that his stock are not 60
ing to suffer under any circumstances.
This winter do not think stock are
going to consume an average OF two
tons per head.
lido not pretend to say that stock
can be raised as cheaply in the agri-
cultural portions of North Dakota as
l have here figured, but lying between
the James river and the Missouri river
is an extensive tract of hilly, rough,
rugged country, termed the Coteaux
de Missouri, extending through the
state from north to south, which is
entirely unfit for agricultural pur-
poses, but where stock can be raised
in lnnumerable quantities.
What have said of cattle is equal
ly applicable to sheep, except that ten
tons Of hay is ample for 100 head of
sheep.
AS to the assertion that our winters
in North Dakota are too long to feed
stock, l will say that I have raised
stock both in Ohio and Iowa, and find
that our feeding season does not aver
age as long here as in those states.
Any further information that can
give anyone looking for location for
a stock ranch will be cheerfully fur.

CHEAPEST RAISED STEER
]. A. Atkinson Gives Some Figures
on the Cost of Stock Raising
in n. Oak.

After asserting that no state or ter
ritory in the United States is freer
from disease for stock than North
Dakota, and that a yearling steer can
be raised here cheaper than in any
other state in the union, j. A. Atkin-
son of Sykeston gives the following in
teresting figures, in the Fargo
Record, as to the cost of raising stock
in the James River valley. He says:
Now, as to the cost of productions:
l will figure that on the basis of 100
head, taking the cost Of 100 cows at
s35 per head, making $500; cost Of

cause there was not enough of it. Now

EXPANSION.
Touching on the expansion question,
he said:
"Can great free people preserve its
liberties and deny liberty to another
people: We cannot solve the problems
of a free government by going back to
the barbarism of two centuries ago.
Commercially speaking, trade will go
with the best goods, the best ships
and the best prices. You cannot
shoot trade into the carcasses Of MUIR
dered men.
"It has been argued that other
nations govern people against their
WILL and for us to continue our former
policy would put us at disadvantage.
Our fathers never intended us to be
like other nations. It has been our
glory that we we're not oppressors Of
men like England and Russia.
II entertain, as l always have, the
profoundest conviction that deep down
in the American heart exists a rever-
enc for human liberty for its own sake,
and for the great truths Of our consti-
tuition.
DARK, BUT NOT HOPELESS.
sit may seem an unpromising fight,
but our duty is still to assail the con.
science of the people. To this I be-
lieve we may yet appeal. 1t looks
somewhat dark, but 1 have not yet
given up hope. 1 cannot believe that
we are to be pushed by into the dark.
ness and chaos from which we have
emerged"
w. J. Bryan was there to grace the
occasion and express his admiration
and friendship for Mr.. Towne. His
speech was short and it was on the
subject of "Moral Courage"
''The nation is but collection of
individuals and reflects the intentions
of people. AS the moral element is
essential to a nation, so it is to an indi-
vidual. There is no danger Of our be-
coming Indifferent to physical excel
lence, nor is it likely that we shall
place low estimate upon the develop
ment of the mind, but in our rush for
wealth and material advantage there
is danger that we shall ignore the
most important part of man-the
heart.
'sOf all the qualities of the heart,
moral courage is the most essential: it
! is the shield that protects the other
virtues: it is the fortress that creates
integrity. The image of the creator

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Dec. 30.-Today's stock
market was largely matter of money
supplies. The symptoms were indubta-
BILE that these were scarce, the call loan
rate running up at one time to IL per
cent The general rate for renewals
was ten per cent There were number
of other depressing factors which rein
forced this motive for selling stocks, and
the consequence was general declining
tendency of prices during the morning,
Later in the day the money rate became
easier under offerings by bankers, among
whom ]. p Morgan & Company were
conspicuous. very urgent demand de-
veloped for Reading, which caused an
advance of four points in that stock at
new high record price at each step of
the advance. The dimensions of the
trading in the stock were such as to
show that only the largest financial in
terests could conduct it. The individual
blocks taken ran all the way from 1000
to 5000 shares. The general market
steadied under the influence of this
movement, but was singularly unrespon-
sive even in those stocks most nearly
allied in interest to Reading, with the
exception of New Jersey Central, which
made an advance of SIS on light transac-
tions. When Reading yielded to realiz-
ing the general market, which had been
held only steady, gave way again sud
denly and dropped to the lowest, the
industrials and Pacifics leading. The
closing was active and easy. Many ru-
mors circulated to account for the
strength of Reading. 1t was said that
stock REIMBURSEMENT was at hand.
Another report was that Pennsylvania
was buying for control The failure of
confirmation of rumors caused a sus
picion among professional traders that
the powerful demonstration in the stock
was designed for sentimental effort on
the general market to help, support
prices, in accordance with the efforts
supposed to be making to that end by
great banking interests. The urgent de-.
mand for money disappointed expectation
aroused by the unexpected increase
shown in banking reserves by the bank
statement on Saturday and the large
gain by the banks indicated by todays
return of sub-Treasury operations, re-
sulting from the payment on Saturday
for the redemption of a block of s., $780,
900 of Government bonds. Today over
half million dollars additional was
paid out for redemption of Government
bonds. Later in the day it was ex-
planned that payments were being made
for the SIS, 1000, 900 of Northern Pacific
convertible bonds, the proceeds of which
are to be used for the retirement of
Northern Pacific preferred stock. 1t was
said that one check Of sS4,O0O,O0O had
