I wish to ask the indulgence Of my pat
rons for the dilatoriness of the issue of my
new city directory for 1901
This is my initial year of the publica-
ton of this work and l have unfortu-
nately encountered many difficulties which
will prepare for and overcome next
year, and although somewhat late in max
ing its appearance it's accuracy will not
be impaired thereby, as no pains or ex-
pense have been spared in its preparation.
The data is al compiled and the book
Is now in the hands of the printer, and
will be pushed forward to competition as
rapidly as possible.
Trusting that my position will be appre-
ciated, l am very respectfully,

BIG RUSSIAN SCHEME MOOTED.
To Advance Indemnities to China by
Aid of France.

A dispatch from Paris last night says:
The Courier du Soir. which is often well
informed on ministerial intentions, says to-
night that the settlement of the Chinese
situation is question OF finance.
Russia, 1t Is stated. will advance to China
the sum required to pay the indemnties
and French savings will provide the Rus
sian government with the requisite funds.
The European troops, except the legation
garrisons, will then leave Pekin, il is also
stated. and new period will begin during
which Chinese patience will strive to tire
out the British and German governments
in their claims regarding the opening OF
the ports and the customs. Russia, II is
set forth, will retain Manchuria as pledge
for the loan.
This it is believed here, is the general
scheme of a project which the French for
eign minister NJ. Delcasse. is discussing I'm
ST. Petersburg with Count Lamsdorff ana
NJ de Witte respectively Russian ministers
of foreign affairs and finance.

WESTERN PEOPLE BUSY.
Prosperity Too Great to Allow Time
for POlitfca.


for Politics.
"Politics?" said Mr. Tim" Byrnes Of
Minnesota, who drifted into town today, Il
don't know the word And he is one Of
the crack politicians of the northw est
too
Fact is," he continued, 1.-The people out
my way are too busy making crops and
money to talk about anything else these
days. Never saw anything like it. McKin-
ley prosperity everywhere in the northwest
country Railroads hustling night and day
to haul the goods; farmers bidding over
each other for labor to handle the crops;
merchants busy and every branch of in
dustry going full blast
THE drouth has not hurt the northwest
thus far and If we only get through
the summer without damage Minnesota
and the two Dakotas will be in fine shape,
financially. We can work up as much in
terest as any one else in campaign, at
the right time, but it is surprising to see
how easily forgotten are the veXing ques-
tions of politics when there is omething
doing in the industrial world. And that
is our condition now"
