| time with a tendency to stiffening in
prices on all grades, tissues having al
ready advanced about per cent.
The Minneapolis mills produced 401,
1876 barrels of flour last week, against
S51 $50 in 1901. and 253,240 in 1900. The
-four market has been very quiet. for
eign demand unimportant, and domes-
tic buying has been again restricted to
actual requirements only. Most mills
are still largely sold ahead, and prices
remain unchanged
AT st. Louis the past week has been
distinctly a good one in all lines of bus
mess.
Kansas City reports that, outside of
holiday trade, which is opening up quite
well, there is practically no change in
either the retail or wholesale districts
from last week.
AT San Francisco the export trade for
November exceeds that of any month
this year. This is due to the heavy
shipments of canned fruits and salmon.
Several unusually valuable cargoes
have been cleared for England one of
them being manifested at s44S,500, and
another at s350000. The China steam
ers have also taken cargoes of much
value. The total exports by sea aver
age s2s0,00o for each business day. In
California farmers are in prosperous
condition and abundant rains this
month give to the future hopeful out
look. Money continues abundant and
in good demand

A HORSE THIEFS METHOD.
shenandoah Sentinel

Tuesday evening Ebert Read found
his driving horse, which was stolen
about ten days ago. 1t was in the pas
ture on the Ira c. Newman farm four
miles south of town. But the horse
was so disfigured that Mr.. Read had
considerable difficulty in recognizing
him. Mr.. r. l.. loot, who lives on the
j. K. Gwynn farm, adjoining, noticed
the animal in the pasture and identified
him from the description given in the
Sentinel. He and Alfred johnson came
to town Tuesday afternoon, and told
Mr. Read Of the find, and he started
with them at once to identify the horse.
Since Mr.. loot had seen the horse that
morning he had been completely trans
formed His foretop and name had
been entirely cut off, and the tail dock
ed. Two little spots of white hair on his
hip had been entirely plucked out, the
shoes removed, and the horse was
branded on the shoulder with the let
ter L, and also branded on the rump.
The brands were to all appearances the
genuine thing, but close examination
showed they were cut in the hair and
the hide underneath was perfect The
man on Mr.. Newman's place had not
noticed these disfigurements until
Tuesday. The horse was evidently
fixed" that day to get him ready to
take from the country. This pasture is
clear away from the public road and a
good place to hide a horse.
AS Mr.. Newman was returning from
the farm about a week ago, he says he
met couple of men in a buggy. 1t
was after dark and one of them hailed
him, calling him by name, and said he
had put horse in the pasture, and
would take him out in few days. Mr..
Newman called, who are you?" to
which he received the reply, "Deel." He
did not recognize the name, but he dis
missed the matter from his mind, and it
did not occur to him that he was being
used to house stolen property.

BUSINESS FEATURES.

Retail trade has been stimulated and
jobbing and wholesale trade is fully
maintained, while manufacturing
plants have orders far ahead, as stated
by Dun. Conditions generally provide a
hopeful outlook for trade.
In Chicago bankers are preparing for
next months needs to move corn and
the approaching January disburse-
ments, which will be heavier than here
tofore. Shipments of currency are
moderate in their proportions, but less
money came back from the interior
than was looked for The speculative
markets do not call for much borrow
disposed to confine operations to mer-
camille and agricultural requirements
In mercantile circles, sales In retail
lines are now of unusually large pro-
portions, and winter wear of all kinds
moves out in good quantities, clothing
being particularly prominent. Foot
wear also sells readily at better prices
than obtained year ago. The mail
order houses are handling an enor-
nous holiday business. both in value
and volume.
Conditions in the iron and billet mar
ket at Pittsburg remain in about the
same state as for several months past
excepting that as a result of the fuel
famine and freight congestion prices
are slightly higher. General trade con-
ditions continue good.
Dry goods and clothing people in Bos-
ton complain of the quiet demand for
seasonable merchandise, owing to the
fact that there has been no prolonged
cold snap as yet. Heavy footwear also
is moving rather slowly from retailers
hands from the same cause Wholesale
business in footwear, however, is good,
and manufacturers have received siza-
BILE contracts for delivery next year.
Reports from Philadelphia show that
the anthracite trade IS still suffering
from limited production and it is esti-
mated the deficiency in the entire mar
ket. as compared with one year ago, is
about 2o,0O0,o00 tons. Bituminous coal
continues scarce and active. The con-
of iron and steel continues
large, with difficulty in securing prompt

i asserted that the offer was made that
the public might be deprived of full
/ knowledge of the conduct of the coal
| trust toward the miners and the people
at large.
| Heretofore the public has been in
clined to extend certain amount of
sympathy to the independent" opera
| tors. 1t was seen that they were even
more at the mercy of the trust than the
miners. 1t was seen that the trust,
having contro! of the transportation
lines, could ruin practically every one
of the independents if it choose
| Hence there was an impression, despite
the attitude of John Markle, the spoke
man of the independents" in the early
conferences, that the latter would rath-
er welcome reasonable success by the
miners as weakening the power of the
trust. The knowledge that Mr.. Mark
ie had a peculiar personal grievance
against the miners union, which the
other independents" did not seem to
feel, tended to strengthen this i'm
preston.
The independent" operators, how
ever, judged by their public statement,
are even more incensed against the
miners union than the managers of
the trust. They declare that settle
ment out of court would forever es
tablish the power and perpetuate the
injustice perpetrated by the United
Mine Workers." They would appear
to believe, even more firmly than Mr..
Baer, with his ideas of divine right"
that there can be neither peace nor
safety until the miners union is de-
stroyed.
Taking this position, demanding that
the whole truth be made known, the
burden is evidently upon the 'inde-
pendents'' to prove their charges
against the miners union. The burden
is also upon them to prove that the
measure of public sympathy they have
hitherto received was justified by their
fair treatment of their employees. They
have demanded a hearing and chal-
lenged public judgment upon the facts
without reservation. They will have |
the hearing and they will also receive
the Judgment.
Meanwhile the miners are at work
abiding the decision of a court which |
both they and their most vigorous OPP
ponents have expressly declared to be
fair. The public is delivered from the
fear of coal famine. 1t can afford to
wait to have the whole truth brought
out. confident that the whole truth can
harm none who have not deserved to
be harmed.
Therefore let the investigation go on
and be pressed into every nook and
corner of the case. Let us have the
whole truth

Colonel ]. S. Mosby was a noted
guerrilla leader during the war and his
raids were feared more by the federals
than his recent raids against the fence
builders on government lands in Ne
braska.
The story told by Septimus Winner
of how he drew the inspiration for his
famous songs, Listen to the Mocking
Bird" and what Is Home Without a
Mother?" is touching. A mother was
wont to stand on a piazza holding her
babe "in the mild September" to hear
the knocking bird singing far and
WIDE" Years afterward he saw the
child standing on the piazza scarcely
realizing that her mother lay dead.
From the one incid9ht came the inspi-

TURNING DOWN PROHIBITION.
TTha Shirt Lake Beacon.

B. +. Wright, editor of the daily Press
and weekly Advocate, at Charles City,
abandons the prohibition party. He
says: Right or wrong. the people of
this country have given testimony after
testimony that they will not accept a
prohibition party as a means of dealing
with the question of the liquor traffic"
Mr.. Wright has been one of the most
prominent prohibition leaders in the
state. He was at one time the prohibi-
ton candidate for governor, and has
carried the party banner in other CAM
paigns. He has reached the conclusion
that has been and that will be reached
by all who give practical heed to the
lessons of history and eXperience-that
the withdrawal of good men from the
fields where political events are shaped
and flocking in squads far removed
from the point of real conflict, instead
of helping to better ends political, SIM
ply reduces the effectiveness of those
