is Five Times the Amount Taken
by the Islands in the Year
of 1897.

worth of the products of her people. y
statement just prepared by the treas
ury bureau of statistics shows that the
shipments from the United States to
its n-contisuous territory during the
fiscal year just ended have been. in
round terms, as follows:
To the Hawaiian islands. .s20,000,o0o
To Alaska 80. $3.50. ...... 15.O00,0O0
To Porto Rico >. 80. 10,Oo0,00o
To the Philippines >. 100000
Iotal ...... 49,. -. Soo.VuV,VoV
This is practically five times as much
as the exports to those territories in
1897. when none of them, except Alas
ka. was under the American flag. The
exports to Porto Rico in the fiscal year
1897, for example, We're $1,9SS.SSS, and
in the fiscal Year 1902 they We're over
S10.000.O00. the exact figures for eleven
months being more than $?.oo0,o 900;
and while the figures for the twelfth
month have not been received, 1T is GER
tain that the total will exceed 100000
600. To Hawaii our exports in the ifs
cal year 1897 were S4,690.015. and for
the fiscal year 1902 the best estimate
of the customs authorities is, in round
terms. $20.0O0.O00. Exact figures of the
shipments to Hawaii are not ut present
available but it is known that the
shipments from Hawaii to the United
States during the year Will amount to
about $23.00000O. and it is believed
that the estimate of 500
100000 for our shipments to the
Hawaiian Islands is n conservative one.
To the Philippine islands our exports in
the fiscal year 1897 We're s94,591. and in
the fiscal year 1902 will be over $4,000
900. exclusive of shipments made by the
government for use of it's troops or 9TH
er officers in the islands. To Alaska, the
best estimate obtainable of the ship
ments in 1897 is $3.924,000. While those
for the fiscal year just ended are esti-
mated by the customs authorities at
SIS 100000. This would make the grand
total of shipments from the United
States to it's noncontiguouS territory
S50.O0n.000, exclusive of goods sent by
the government for use of the army or
of Its officials.
In imports from the islands the in
crease has not been as great as that in
exports. The total value of our inn
ports from Porto Rico in the fiscal
year 1897 was s2.1s1.024, and in 1902
will be about $S.0OO.Oo0. From the Ha-
waiian islands the imports in the fiscal
year 1897 were Sl3.6S7,799 and the to-
tai for 1902 will be about S23,O00.0OO.
From the Philippines the imports in the
fiscal year 1897 were $4,3S3.740. and for
1902 the total will be over SI,000000 |
The value OF merchandise, including |
gold and silver, received fom Alaska in |
1897 is estimated at S5000.O0O, and for |
1902 about s15,0OO.OOO. making the total |
imports of 1897 from Porto Rico, Ha-
wall. the Philippines and Alaska about |
So, 900, While the total for the fiscal |
year 1902 will be about $50,0OO,000.

Changes at "The New Store I"

The new management of the John
son, Fridlund & Moline store will in.
stall several changes in that popular
institution, which will make it not onlv
more convenient. but also add greatly
to the appearance. The shoe DEPART
ment will be remodelled and q change
made in the clothing department., 80
as to have it occupy the same side as
the furnishing goods and shoe depart
ments. The entire north part will be
devoted to these departments, while
the grocery department will OCCUPY
exclusively the rear end OF the build
ing. The dry goods, which are on the
south side, will be replenished with q
large stock for the fall trade, making
this line a most complete one. New
shelving is being put in for q better
display of goods in the different de-
partments. Large and attractiue win
dow displays will be a pleasing fea-
ture, and ''The New Store" under the
able management of Johnson, Moline
& Co., will be an able competitor for
the trade in the city and vicinity.

HAS = Bright Future.

Attorney Geo. Bitterness retnrned
last Friday from his first trip to Este
van, Assiniboia, Canada. Accom-
panylng him was his brother, B. O.
Bitterness, who had gone to inspect
the lands there, and whose trim 70.
suited in his purchase of 800 acres of
tne Canadian soil. Messrs. Bitterness
and Downs are interested in l2 sec-
tlons OF land, located eight miles from
EsteVan, which they, purchased some
time ago from the Wi illmar Realtv
co., and it was for the purpose of
looking over the firms holdings that
Mr.. Bitterness made the trip. The in
Vestment was made through Mr.,
Downs, who had personally visited
the country, and Messrs. Bitterness
were we'll pleased with what they saw.
Samples of grain raised there were
brought here and fine specimen of
lax Is now on exhibition at the Office
OF Bitterness q Downs. The soil ia
very productive and seems to be we'll
adapted to all kinds of farming.
Mr.. Bitterness says that the country
Is settling up at a rapid rate and the
town OF Estevan is enjoying a good
growth 1t had 36 buildings under
course OF construction and the nre.
diction was that the town would he g.
second kenmare. The firms holdings
are about 30 miles from this city. The
big demand for land is causing an
advance in prices and Messrs. Otter
ness and Downs expect to soon in
crease their present price of s8 per
acre. Accommodations to land-seek-
ers are taxed on account of the big in
lux, but are considerably better now
than when the boom first commenced. .

FOUND NOT GUILTY.
Frank nolmberg. Charged with L.r-
esny, Is Released From
CUSTODY.

Frank Holmberg was arrested las
Friday on the charge of grand larcen,
preferred by his employer, J. J.
Ekander, the tailor. The warrant
was sworn out Friday morning befor,
Judge Roise, and Chief of Police Sor
enson and Deputy Sheriff Hanscon
were instrumental in apprehendine
their man, which led to his conflne
ment in the county Jail. The charge
OF grand larceny was afterwards re-
duced to that of petitlarceny. Ahear
ing was set for Monday afternoon a.
O'Clock, but was adjourned for tria
by jury at the Court House. The
defendant did not waive a jury anc
the case came on for trial the mex
morning at nine O'Clock. Holmbere
was defended by Attorney Castbere
and County Attorney Johnson ap
peared for the state. Holmberg was
charged with the theft of $40, which il
was claimed he had collected TO,
Ekander and failed to turn in. 1t was
also alleged that the defendant was
possessed of other sums collected dur.
ing his employers absence. The
money was alleged to have been un-
lawfully retained while Mr.. Ekander
was away on his trip to Duluth some
time ago, and at which time Holmberg
had been entrusted with the charge OF
the shop. A claim was set up for the
defense to the effect that he was in a
state of intoxication when the amount
was retained, and it was also proven
that an amount was due the employe
for wages which would more than
cover the sum in which the specific
charge was made. Holmberg was ac-
quilted by the jury.
The incident which led up to Holm.
berg's arrest was quite amusing. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Ekander, he had given
his employe certain time in which to
make good the amount retained.
Holmberg set out that morning in an
effort to raise the money, and claimed
that he would go to the roundhouse to
borrow it from friend. In the mean
time he was watched by the authori-
ties, but succeeded in lodging them.
After a several hours hunt he was
discovered in the barn loft of S. S.
Glarum by Deputy Sheriff Hanscom,
where he had hid under the hay.
Mr.. Holmberg's case commanded
the sympathy of number of citizens,
who in the spirit of fair play raised
the wherewithal to secure an attorney
to defend him. They claim that under
the circumstances his arrest was in
nature of spite work, and the verdict
of"not guilty" naturally pleased them
and vindicated their action. The case
cost the county about $50. The law
is such that if a case of malicious
prosecution could be proven, the
county could recover the costs from
the complaining witness.
