BURLEIGH COUNTY CROPS.

Farmer Wallace: I have been
through the county pretty thoroughly
the past few days. Wheat harvest is
we'll along and I think the wheat crop
of Burleigh county is safe. The grain
is fine, straw heavy and tall. and heads
numerous and we'll filled. believe
the average yield of wheat for Burleigh
county. will be 20 bushels to the acre,
or more. have seen the time I would
have said % bushels as an average, but
| experience has made me conservative.
The quality of the grain promises to
be fine. and l think without doubt Bur-
leigh county has raised as good a crop
as ever raised, if not a little better.
Oats will average 60 bushels to the
acre through the county. There are
some fields that will go 50 bushels,
tjust as there are some fields of wheat
that will go 80 and 35 bushels. The
oats will be No. 1 in quality. Flax is
being cut in some cases.. EARLY flax
has filled well, and promises a good
yield. Corn is doing finely. In some
fields, the kernels are taking on the
gloss that comes with ripeness. The
husks are heavy and it will take a very
heavy frost to do much damage to
corn. There is a good yield of pota-
toes. and vegetables have yielded well.
Altogether it is an excellent crop and
the farmer folk feel grateful and
happy. E
We have gathered some fine samples
for the Burleigh county grain display
for the St. Louis exposition. We will
make the best counties in the state
hustle to equal us. l have just brought
j. some samples from D. R. McDonald's
place. wheat that is hard to beat. Jim
Marshall has gathered some samples
for the Hackney-Boynton people that
I never saw ~excelled on the Missouri
slope, or anywhere for that matter.
Some fine samples have also been gath
cred for Murdoch Mckenzie. The
weather has been ideal for harvest, nc
heavy winds, and dry. still weather.

NO PROSECUTION.

Mandan Pioneer: States Attorney
Rice has looked into the matter of
Photographer WEIGH killing young
Clark last week, and he has concluded
that there is no evidence to warrant
a prosecution, and that for him to take
any steps in that direction would mean
an expense to the county with no
chance whatever of securing a convic-
ton. The whole affair was daplor-
able, and If the fatal shot had killed a
tramp instead Of an inoffensive young
man. everybody would have been thor
oughly satisfied, after the occurrences
of the past few weeks. Mr.. Rice says
that if any additional evidence is pro
duced that would warrant further steps
being taken, he will take them.

The 500 celebration is an important
matter for the city. 1t will show off
the city to a large number of visitors
who will make their first trip to the
capital city.
Ri The business interests of the city
cannot afford to make other than a
good display. The business houses
and residences through the city should
be decorated. Bunting and flags
should fly everywhere.
If everyone will put a shoulder to
the wheel and push a little, the cele-
bration will be a success.
When the committee having in
charge the matters of parade requests
you to put a float in the parade, coop
crate with them, and make a suitable
representation of your business.
The real estate men of the city will
probably unite in a display of soil pro-
ducts. They should have a meeting
and set forth a display on their own
hook. 1t will repay them many fold,
in bringing the splendid crops Of the
slope country this year to the atten-

The success of: the celebration is
merely a matter of push on the part of

Let us all push to the end that a
splendid celebration be had.

HE CLEMENTS LOTS SALE.
The Auctioneer Gets 5000 for the Choice
of Lots in the New
Townsite.
Biigadier Roberts Calls Off a Sale After
the Aucti0neer Declares
It Opened.

The Western Town Lot Company
rapudiated one of it's own sales at
8t4e townsite of Clements, Three
Likes township, on Wednesday of
last week, and by the reputation
there came near being one OF the
most interesting scenes depicted in
the history of that company, Briga-
dier-General Roberts, the townsite
boomer, being made the object of a
general attack by the large crowd
present.
The repudiation occurred immedi-
ately after the first lot was offered
atpublic auction. This lot was lot
/, block 8, not a particularly desira-
ble lot, owing to it being located in
a low portion of the townsite. Il.
G.. Schmahl started the lot at $150,
and later raised it to 5000, but the
auctioneering colonel could not find
another bidder and it was then that
Brigadier-General Roberts declared
that there was no sale and that an,
attempt to strike a gusher would be
made at another portion of the town
site. MIR. Sehmahi entered a pro-
test and number of the crowd in
quired whether that was going to be
the way that the corporation was
going to conduct it's sale. Roberts
failed to reply.
A little later in the proceedings
Mr.. Schmahl stepped into the auc-
tioneering ring and made q cash
tender Of $500 for the lot that had
been first put up at auction. The
brigadier-g general refused to accept
the tender and the sale was post
poned for several minutes in order
to allow q discussion to go on. About
$50 o'clock, just as the brigadier
had nearly finished the sale of
business lots, and after part OF the
crowd had started for home. the
brigadier decided to put up lot |.
block 8. again at auction. This
coup was commenced at q place
quite distant from the lot itself,
while the crowd was moving, but
when the brigadier and the auction
eer reached the spotnotice was pnb>
licly given that the lot had once
been sold and that any attempt to
purchase il by another party would
result IN q case at law. This notice
was approved by the crowd, the
brigadier was hooted at. some Sc
we're talk followed, with the result
