Tie Ne, Note

Al Fullcnwider. who owns u
quarter section Of land three miles
north of Center, proposes to solve
the water question by pumping.
L.. w. Arthur, ct this clty has
contracted to furnish Mr.. Fullcn-
wider with siX-hursc power gaso.
line engine and pump that will lift
1900 gallons per minute or 100
inches, which is Sufficient TO irri-
gate 100 acres. 4 well II by ii
feet is to be dug and cascd down
to water level.
The only impcdimcnt that seems
to stand IN the way Is the high
price Of gasoline 81 cents per
gallon. 1t Is probable. however,
that by buying gasoline IN large
quantities the price ran be reduced
considerably, IL which event
pumping will be rc sorted TO by all
ranchmcn who have no prior
rights or who are liable to suffer
for water during june and July.
MIR. Fullcuwider will commence
digging the well next week and

Talked on Socialism

W. G. Benton, state organizer Of
The Socialist party, addressed a small
audience in the court room last eve
ming He spoke with reference to the
concentration Of capital, claiming
that trusts are the logical culmin'
alton Of the competitive system. He
said that trusts are daily making
more Socialists than all the Socialist
papers and speakers in existence; that
all OF the industries in the United
States will be controlled by trusts
within the next two or three years,
and that they would so systemetize
these industries that the change from
private to government ownership will
merely consist in the painting Of a
new sign over the central offices,
changing the name Rockefeller, Nor
gan Il Co. to United States Industrial
Bureau.

BALLS BURGLAR BAaoBD.
Fred Wahl in Jail for Breaking
Into Qrocefy ators.

Sheriff Baker and Marshal Favor
this morning arrested Fred Wahl,
who is charged with breaking into
Ball 4 Co.'S store the other night. In
default OF $4,000 bail, Justice Quinn
committed him to Jail.
Yosng Wahl is about "a years old
and is son Of Lou Wahl who resided
here years ago, Mrs. Wahl yet lives
here. Trace Of the burglar was OBJ
tanned through the passing by Wahl
Of a mutila ed coin which Mr.. Ball
positively identities. He was cap
tnred while attempting to board the
Rock Island train. There was found
on bis person . bunch Of skeleton
keys, several dynamite caps and fuses,
soap used BY burglars in drilling, a
big revolver fully loaded, a handful
Of nickles and dimes. There was
taken from Balls store a in small
change except a silver dollar.
Wahl has not been spending much
time here recently, having only ar.
rived q few days ago. According to
bis own tale be has been in Wichita,
Denver and many other places and it
is not improbable is wanted else
where. He has served q sentence in
the reform school, having been sent
from here several years ago.
The examination will be held Fri.
day afternoon. A conviction means
at least five years in the penitentiary.

THE TRANSvAAL WAR.
An Appalling Record In Men Lost ana
Money Expended by the British In
Trying to Subdus the Boers.

London, Jan. 2s.--Up to January J.,
1902, the British have lost lS,064 men
in South Africa by death and 6l,666
have been invalided home. Despite
this APPALLING record, and despite the
growing anger against the ministry
for not seizing every possible oppor-
tunity to put an end to the hostili-
ties, the farthest idea from the mind
of the Britons is that of anything
looking like surrender.
Taking the period from the COM
mencement of the military opera
tions until March 81, next, the total
amount for war purposes In South
Africa reaches E1j1,0OO,0O0. Provi-
sion will have to be made for carry
Ing on operations vigorously until
the Beers lay down their arms, and
experts affirm that they may look
forward to the expenditure Of a
further G60,000,0OO to gain the de-
sired end. On that basis the total
cost Of the war will approximte
{ 220.0DO .O00.

The storm that has swept this
country for the last three days is the
most severe one Of the winter and
naturally would try the vitality Of
any animal out Of doors. The farm
ers from the surrounding country say
the cattle do not think this is sum-
mer weather at all but they are not
suffering greatly from the cold. Sun.
day was harder on the cattle than any
day since then because Of the cold
north wind that blew. Most Of the
cattle have some shelter aside from
the timber, ahd II fed we'll they fare
well. No losses have as yet been re-
ported but II the cold wave continues
longer it is expected that some ex-
posed thin cattle will perish.
