Now that harvesting i5over and ucw

acres in the county, etc. Upon careful
inquiry from leading farmers and
throshing machine men from different
parts Of the county the wheat acreage
appears TO be in the pighborhood Of 10,
900 acres and the yield per acre is be-
tween 20 and 25 bushels, making a total
Of 100000 bushels for the county. The
average market price for this product is
about J5 cents, which will bring over
100000 into tho county this fall and

A NATTER OF POLITICS.

Without considering the merits and dement's of the
proposed ship subsidy, the difference between the
methods of ]. P. Morgan and the arguments of Re-
publican politicians in charge of the Congressional
measure cannot escape notice.
For the past few years Senator Hanna and others
have been preaching the necessity of a subsidy
for the placing of the American marine service on a
proper basis. At the last session of Congress the bill
was defeated in the Senate. This year it has passed
the Senate. but will probably be killed in the House.
Congressman did not care to declare themselves on
the measure until after the fall elections.
Evidently Mr.. Morgan has grown tired Of waiting
on the political trckery and hypocrisy of the Republi-
cans in charge of the bill. After ten days spent In
England he has succeeded in forming a transatlantic
steamship combine, which assures American financial
supremacy. Subsidy or no subsidy, an ownership of
a merchant marine becomes an assured success by
means of this clever financial coup.
Yet 1t is said that the great combine maker re-
ceived many cablegrams from Republicans in Wash
ington, asking him to defer action. They are reported
to have pleaded that the forming of the combine
would have a bad political effect for those who have
been pushing the ship-subsidy measure in Congress.
All politics. The righteous concern which some Of
the Republicans professed for American commerce
seems very small in view of the practical, business,ike
action of Morgan and his associates. A summary Of
his comments on the attitude of the subsidy Republic
cans would be interesting reading. His contempt for
their hypocrisy must be difficult to conceal. Republic
can voters of the Middle West, rs well as the Demo-
Gratis, should be n unit in defeating the men who have
been prominent in the scheme to use public money for
private purposes.

WORLD'S-19O3-FAIR.

JERRY SIMPSON, PING-PONG CHAMPION.
When Jerry Simpson, the one-time allegedly sock
less representative in Congress Of a Kansas district
removed his habitation and talents to the younger
and, in one sense, breezier Oklahoma country, the
friends he left behind him proudly asserted that he
would still be heard from by the nation.
And this confident prediction has come true. Re
cent news dispatches notify the world that Jerry is
now the champion %ping-pong player of Montana. He
won the championship, we are told, in a spirited tour
nament against "Skew" Johnson, general agent of
the Northern Pacific Railway; Conrad Kohrs, cattle
millionaire; San Scott, the millionaire manager of the
Pioneer Cattle Company, and ex-senator Tom Pow
ers. The tourney took place in Helena, and may easily
he imagined as a sort of Field of the Cloth of Gold,
with doughty cow-kiDss, railway harons and majestic
trepid manner.
What a metamorphosis, however, for Jerry Simp-
son, this indulgence in the sport Of aristocrats, his fell
iow-gamesters being of the very class against whom
he was wont to inveigh so bitterly, the men Of mil
lions. of railroads, of syndicates, the enemies and op-
pressors of the common people! Was it not in protest
against their silken hose that Jerry refused fat-foot-
edly, so to speak, to wear any socks at all? Did he
not use to hurl the anathema maranatha of Populism
at their heads, himself glowing with demagogic ar
dor? And now to see Jerry ping-ponging c~heek-by-
jowl with such gentry, rubbing elbows with them as IL
there were no contamination In their touch! Alas!
Eheu! Ichabod! How have the mighty fallen,

N
Different View of British Soldiers.

Cape Times. South Africa)
Speaking in his native tongue, General p. De Wet said:
In my opinion, these ISLANDERS proceed from the same
class of people who have done so much to produce the
present unfortunate war. They originate not from the
Afrikander people, but from INSCRIPTIONS agitators who
have for years past been sowing dissension and hatred be-
tween the two nationalities. 1t is impossible for people
living in this country to be deceived by such palpable
falsehoods. Only people living thousands Of miles away
can be found to put faith in them For myself, L have
invariably found the English Tommy friendly. generous
and kind-hearted. 1 might refer to my own experience
when at the outbreak of the war 1 was in command Of
a large body of Free Staters. Before We could join with
been fought at Dundee and Eandslaagte. Directly l came
into touch with the Transvaalers who had taken part In
the fight. and had learned that a large number of their
men, including General kock and other notable leaders,
had been wounded and taken prisoners, my first question
was as to how the wounded prisoners had been treated by
the English. 1 was gladdened to hear that they had been
most kindly dealt with. and that after General Kock had
succumbed to his injuries, his body was respectfully
handed over to friends for burial at their hands. Further,
l had occasion to march through the country around
Dewetsdorp shortly after a large English force had passed
through. I inquired most carefully at each farm and
stopping place as to the behavior of the troops, and was
In every instance assured that the soldiers had stolen
nothing and had treated all the people with kindness and
respect. I even found that the families of burghers still
fighting with the Beers had received exactly the same
treatment as the families of those who had surrendered
No distinction had been made. Again. on one occasion 1
was permitted to meet with the wife of my brother. Cen
eraI Christian De Wet, who is still fighting in the field. 1
must acknowledge that Mrs. De Wet was at that time very
bitter against the English; but when / asked how she was
treated and whether 1 could procure her any necessaries.
her reply was that she had been most kindly treated by
the troops. and that she lacked nothing. Since my own
surrender I have experienced nothing but kindness and
courtesy from the military authorities. For the last
twelve months l have lived I'm Kroonstad. and sometimes
l almost forget that war is still in the land
In conclusion, General Piet De Wet instanced the peace
able and quiet state of the town in which they were living.
although thousands of soldiers were frequently passing
through, as showing the thorough discipline and good con-
duct of Tommy Atkins.
