A MAJ, of Conviction,.


When the republican party of Iowa,
to please q set of irreconcilables, de-
clared in favor of prohibition and en-
acted it into law, says the Mandan
Times, Hon. A. B. Cumlmins refused
to bow down before the fetish and
was read out Of the party. But he
refused to 20 out, and continued his
fight against prohibition. After the
republicans had lost the governor at
two elections, they began to think
that possibly Cummins and his follow
ers had been right. The party turned
its back on prohibition and became
united once more, at the last election
rolling up majority of $4,000. The
other day this same man Cummins,
who had the courage to stand by his
convictions, was nominated for gov.
ernor of Iowa on the first ballot, in a
convention Of 1,e41 delegates. The
republicans OF North Dakota may
learn something by pondering this bit
of history,

Many of our readers will remember
young Bert Petrie, nephew of w. E.
and the Misses A, l.. and L. q. Petrie,
who was in Emmons county from
April to November about four years
ago. While here Bert, by his socia-
bility and good nature, made many
friends, who will be pained to read the
following account,of his death, taken
from the Utica IN. " Globe:
"Fulton, Aug, 2.--The sad intelli.
gence OF the death of Bert Petrie. a
popular young man of this village.
which occurred at Pompey, Wednes-
day, where he was visiting, will cause
sorrow among his large circle of friends
and relatives, Mr.. Petrie entered the
Boston Dental School last fall, and
was enjoying his vacation when
stricken, He visited some time in
Herkimer, with relatives, and later
came to his home in this village. He
was In his usual good health up to a
few days preceding his demise. His
illness was not thought to be of an
alarming nature, and his death came
us sad blow ta his parents, who placed
in him every confidence for bright
and successful future.
"Mr. Petrie was twenty-six years of
age. being a son Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Frederick A. Petrie. He received his
education at the public schools OF
Fulton, and later entered the Boston
Dental School. Mr.. Petrle was Of a
genial and companionable nature, and
to know him was to be his friend.
Besides his parents, he leaves one
brother, Robert E., Of Fulton.

The Minneapolis Market Record
says: There is a. growing feeling
among the trade that the shortage in
the French wheat crop this year will
reach 5O,000,000 bushels, and thatssa
large proportion of that shortage will
have to be supplied by America.
Wheat at present prices is cheaper
than other grains. With corn aroupd
Coo, oats 4Qo, barley Coo, and rye at SEC,
an advance in wheat prices is ex-
pected by many Of the best traders,
unless there should be Il reaction in
those grains. There has been consid-
cradle damage to the Russian crop.
Other countries are not Offering
freely, compared with former years,
while Americas exports are running
practically twice as large as they
were year ago. Part Of this in
crease is undoubtedly due to the fact
that ocean freights are cheaper than
they had been for long time. Ac-
cording to the government report, the
crop Of oats is 73 per cent of an aver
age this year, with 15 per cent in
crease in average, and prices are up Is
cents from where they were month

LITTLE BOY KILLED
Frankie Ba1lnegart,aer' Dragged
to Death by u R.t7sa,voy
Team of Horses.

A horrible accident, resulting fatal
ly, occurred in the Tirsbol neighbor-
hood of this county, Monday evening.
frankie, aged six years, the youngest
child of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Baum
gartner, met his brother Peter, about
Is years old, as he came from the field
with load of hay, and, when the
team was unhitched, he climbed on
one of the horses to ride to the we'll
and back, the we'll being about 200
yards distant. AS the return from the
we'll was being made, the little boy
fell off and became entangled in the
lines, which were crossed, the horses
still being hitched together. The
horse he had been riding was gentle,
but it's mate was skittish. The latter
began to kick and plunge. The result
was that both horses, still hitchcd to-
gether, ran away, dragging the poor
little fellow, who was struck by the
hoofs Of the animals, as well as beaten
by the stones and uneven places Of the
ground. The team ran down the dry
lake bed or meadow between Frank
and John Baumgartner's places, and
joined herd of horses feeding there,
and it was some time before they
could be approached and captured,
Little frankie was still tightly
wrapped and bound by the lines, being
held by half dozen turns or wraps.
He was quite dead when found. His
skull was broken in many places; the
lines had cut into his body to the
bone, and he was internally injured.
Not u vestige of clothing was left
upon his body.
The funeral took place Tuesday
afternoon at SITS. Peter and Paul's
church, with the impressive Catholic
funeral service. Rev. Fr. Thullle con-
Quoted the service. The interment
took place in the cemetery near the
church. frankie was a bright little
fellow. He was a brother of the wife
of Register Schweitzer, and was the
baby Of a large family.

JOHN A. SToYELL, of Bismarck,
died at St. Alexius Hospital, in Bis
marck, last Saturday. Deceased was,
in the early days, a strong factor in
Territorial politics. He was a native
of Maine, but came to the Territory
of Dakota in 1873. Until sickness had
enervated and unnamed him, he was
one Of the brightest lawJers-particu-
larly in criminal practice-in Dakota.
He was OF a generous, sociable dispo-
sition. His wife and daughter pre-
ceded him to the grave. The writer
remembers John A. Stoyell (when
the scribe came out to Bismarck ia
the spring of '81) as the best dressed
and handsomest man the city con-
tanned. In the later days Of his life
Mr.. Stoyell lost his health and influ-
ence; but there are few old settlers on
the Missouri Slope to-day who will
not call to mind many kindly acts
done by John A. Stoyell.

THE Mcintosh County Republican
says Linton man tried to "annex"
the dog of a sawbones who resides in
that town. Which is almost as bad
on the part of the alleged Linton man
as it is for a newspaper man to annex
articles of all sorts without giving
proper credit. But probably the man
who took the dog was from Napoleon,
and said he was from Linton just to
clear the skirts of his own town,

The Missouri Slope of North Da-
kota seems destined to become a re-
gion largely devoted to the raising Of
corn. Fifteen years ago the corn
raised here was of the calico variety
known as ''Squaw." After several
years, during which the white kernels
had been carefully and persistently
selected for seed by divers farmers, a
new variety known as "White Flint"
was developed, and for long time
this kind was almost exclusively grown
on the Slope. A few years ago the
people living in what is known as
"the Holland Settlement" in this
county, procured seed from aneighbor-
ing county across the state line, and,
no one seeming to know the right name
for it, called it Campbell County
Dent" For several seasons they-as
we'll as others who have procured seed
from them-have raised this dent
corn. It has ripened as early as the
flint. and this year it bids fair to be no
exception to preceding years. One
thing noted this year is the power
Of corn to recuperate from the effects
of bad weather. Even after the first
June rain the corn crop looked poor.
No one seemed to consider that it
would amount TO anything. But it
has developed wonderfully well, and
there will be pretty fair yield Of
corn in the county this season. Al
most without exception, ever since
the Missouri Slope received its first
settlement Of farmers, there has been
q good corn crop, and the yield and
quality have been quite satisfactory.
With an almost certain crop Of such
corn as has been for several years
produced on properly cultivated fields
In this county, Is It not q fact that the
Missouri Slope may be considered a

AT the St. Louis fair, year after
next, there will be a temple Of fame,
and each state will be entitled to
space therein for two of its departed
favorite sons. In the Bismarck Trib-
une "Farmer" Wallace makes q
strong plea for the late Col. Thomp-
son as one Of the honored memories.
Among all the pioneers that have
passed away, none is more deserving
of being thus honored. Col. Thomp-
son was general In the civil war, a
true patriot, and a man Of great pub
lie spirit.
