WEATHER AND CROPS
WEATHER.

A few scattered showers have oc cured during the week, the amount of rainfall generally being insufficient to benefit materially growing vegetation. There seems to be, however, sufficient soil moisture, as nearly all reports in- dicate the thrifty condition of crops and grasses. The weather character istic has been warm days and cool nights. The temperature was consid- erably above the seasonal average. In Salt River Valley the daily excess of mean temperature was 3 degrees.
 CROPS.
 Crop development has been marked by progress, all conditions being fla vorable for rapid growth. The water supply for irrigation is ample to serve all requirements in most sections. While rain has not occurred in the val leys, it has fallen in the mountains, and the flow in the irrigating canals has been thereby maintained.
 Pears will soon be ripe in Salt River Valley, and corn and sorghum are making a vigorous growth. The third crop of alfalfa is being harvested in the Valley of the Little Colorado, and lAlc llGlOn NIOp pIOObIiliS d 5OOo yield.
 The favorable conditions of weather and water supply that have charac- terized the entire season in the valley of the Colorado are still maintained and all crops of summer planting are in an advanced stage of maturity. Late seeding and planting will be done under favorable circumstances.
 In the Upper Gila Valley fruit has lately developed remarkably under the influence of the prevailing humid con- ditions. Corn promises full crop, but the acreage planted is much smaller than usual. The fourth crop of alfalfa is now ready for cutting. The potato crop is nearly a failure, the vines being thrifty, but the tubers scarce. The soil is now iu prime condition for fall blowing, and farmers are generally preparing for early seeding. Water. Is plentiful in the canals. The ranges are in fair condition.

MILWAUKEE, WILL EXTEND
Strong Indications That the Milwau

Sioux Falls Argus-Leader, ,: o.
q. Miracle Of the firm of Miracle s.
Miracle, while in Chicago last week,
made the acquaintance Of a gentle
man named Allen. who was stopping
at the same hotel as was Nj. Miracle.
When Mr., Allen learned that Mr..
Miracle vas from South Dakota he
asked many questions regarding this
section Of the state. During the
conversation Mr.. Allen also gave up
some information which will prove
most interesting to the readers of the
Argus-Leader. Mr.. Allen is connect
ed with the Black Hills Cement
company which will erect large ce-
ment works at Lead City. This COM
pany is organized by Pittshurg. Pa.
capital ana Mr.. Alien informed Mr..
Miracle that the company would in
the next year eXpend not less than
$500, 0Ce in Improvements at Lead.
He further stated that the people
who composed the Black Hills Ce-
nent company had organized anG pre-
pared to embark in the cement bust
ness on a large scale, after having re-
ceived the personal pledge that the
Chicago. Milwaukee and St. Paul
railroad would build across the reser-
walton and into the Black Hills
country inside the next eighteen
months.
There has been a feeling in Sioux
Falls for sometime, in fact even since
the Milwaukee people announced a
new issue of bonds for extension pur-
poses that the road would extend to
the Black Hills country before long.
This report. coming from the source
that it did, and In the manner that
it did. puts a strong confirmation to
all the other rumors of Milwaukee ex-
tension to the Hills.

Doesn't Take 1t Kindly.

The Plankinton Herald doesn't like
the decision Of the supreme court in
the case Of the state against Fred
L. Stevens, when it turned down the
circuit court and the jury which
found Stevens guilty Of the crime
charged. The Herald makes some
very caustic criticisms of the decision
which places a question on the
honesty Of the court. The Herald
mistakes. we believe, in accusing
the supreme court Of any favoritism
in its decision. 1t is a matter of
law, and if the supreme courts in
depreciation Of the law is such that
Stevens is entitled to a new trial
by reason Of error in the lower court,
as an American citizen he should
have it. The Herald editor would want
the same privilege were he similarly
situated.

SOUTH DAKOTA DIVORCES
They are Held Valid in the New York
Courts When a Test Case is
Made.
Made.

Sioux Falls special Just now
when the presence in Sioux Falls OF
| Mrs. Roland B. Molineaux Of New
York city has caused so much discus
sion Of the question of South Dakota
divorces. a decision of a New York
in regard to the legality Of a South
Dakota divorce in a case growing out
of a divorce decree granted here,
will be Of interest.
On Aug. Is last a local law firm
procured a divorce for a prominent
New York man, who had established
a residence in South Dakota by re-
siding in Sioux Falls for the neces-
sary six months required by law.
When he returned to New York
city he married another woman. and
his divorced wife at once instituted
a suit against him for bigamy, claim
ing that the South Dakota divorce
granted her husband was illegal and
void.
The case came up for hearing a
few days ago before Judge Manner
of New York, but the case has been
dismissed, Judge Manner holding
that the divorce decree granted him
in Sioux Falls was valid.

CAPITAL REMOVAL MATTERS

Dell Rapids Times: The capital
removal question will come to a show
down in the legislature this winter
and a strong effort is going to be put
forth to remove the capital from
Pierre. Mitchell aud Huron are both
after 1t, and either place would sui
the people Of this section very well.
Pukwana Press: 1t is hoped that
Brule country's representatives in
the legislature will vote the senti-
ment Of the people Of Brule county
anent the capital removal question.
Two years ago a few county seat die
tators wired Senator Wilkes to vote
to retain the capital at Pirere. He
did so and they paid the obligation
this month by defeating him.
Huronite: The agreement between
Huron. Mitchell and Redfield cannot
be broken by Pierre or her allies.
Each town will stand by the agree
ments made to the last. Friends of
removal can rest with positive as
surance that no tricks of the cpposi-
ton will for a moment weaken the
united efforts of these towns to secure
capital resubmission.

Tells of Progress Made on
the Island
INSTRUCTION FOR THE NATIVES
They Are Shown What to Plant and
How to Cultivate Economically and
ProfitabIy-considerabIe Attention
Paid to the Building of Roads to the
Principal Markets.

Washington, Nov. 25.-The annual
report of w. II. Elliot, commissioner
for Porto Rico, announced substantial
progress along all governmental lines in
the island. Much attention is being
paid to road building and bridge con-
struction. in order to assure to labor
the means of reaching markets with
products of the soil. The Porto Ricans
are being instructed what to plant and
how to cultivate most economically and
profitably. Sanitary rules and regula-
tions have been introduced and the peo-
ple encouraged in habits of cleanliness
and correct living; also assisted In
matters affecting trade and commerce
at home and abroad. Concerning pub
lie lands, the report says various de-
partments of the federal government
will be asked to make known their
wishes concerning properties at present
occupied by or needed for their accom-
mediation. The bulk of property IN
yoived comprises lands of little present
value, but which may, II the island con-
tinues to develope and prosper, as con-
ditions now prevailing continue, be-
come saleabie, they need to be located
and their boundaries determined.

MRS. CORES WOUND
American Doctors Make an Examina-
ton, But Do Not Give Opinion AS to
the Cause of Death.

Paris, Nov. 25.-An independent
postmortem examination over the re-
mains of Mrs. Ellen Gore was made by
a commission OF four American doctors
this morning. 1t tended to establish the
fact that Mrs Gore did not commit sui
eide The doctors have been given for
ty-eight hours in which to consult the
official report. Gowdy, in the mean
while has ordered them not to give any
official opinion on the case. He is seek
ing to avoid a clash with French ex-
perts.
The American doctors found the bull
let entered the pupil of the right eye,
cutting the lower eyelid, and emerging
in the rear of the right side of the head,
at less than an inch elevation from the
point of entry. The body bore no
marks of struggle. and there were no
powder marks at the entrance of the
wound. The report is that the Ameri-
can commission will be restricted
to the pathology of the
wound and the direction of the bullet,
with no opinion as to the cause OF
death The provisional release of De
Rydzewslli yesterday is considered as
the Established view of the French au-
thorities of his innocence. but he is still
under surveillance, and II he attempts
to leave the city he will be liable to ar
rest.
There is now reason to believe the
American doctors, while holding the
wound was almost horizontal, incline
to the general conclusion that the tra-
gedy was the result of an accident.

President Mitchell and Counsel
Meet Representatives of
the Operators
TWO CONFERENCES WERE HELD
An Attempt Made to Adjust the Differ
ences Between the Miners and oper-
ators-BeIieved That Some Progress
I Was Made, Tho Nothing Official Was
Given Out Today.

Washington, Nov. 25.-President
John Mitchell and Clarence Darrow,
counsel for the mine workers, arrived
here this morning. Mitchell admitted
the object of his visit here was for
the purpose of holding a conference
with Wayne MacVeagh, in furtherance
OF the suggestion of the anthracite
coal strike commission that the parties
to the controversy get together, if pos
sible, and adjust their differences
among themselves. Mitchell said he
did not expect to call on Roosevelt.
The conference of President Mitchell
and counsel with Wayne MacVeagh
over propositions for adjustment of the
differences between the miners and OPP
orators concluded at 1. Darrow an
nounced little was done this morning
and another conference would be held
this afternoon. He said there We're a
number of differences which would
have to be adjusted.
Darrow said nothing had been done
this morning, except to go over the
various propositions which had been
advanced. He declined to state what
these were, but intimated they were
substantially the same as those recent
ly published, namely, nine-hour day,
10 per cent increase and yearly agree
ments with the miners. The conference
between Mitchell and MacVeagh was
resumed shortly after 2:3o. Before en-
tering the room MacVeagh volunteered
the information that he had no author
ity whatsoever to act for any other
than the two companies represented by
him. Carroll d. Wright joined the con-
ferees about 8 o'clock. He refused to
make any statement as he entered the
room.
New York, Nov. 25.The independ-
ent coal operators protested today to
the coal carrying railroads against the
proposed plan to settle the differences
wieh the MiIie Workers Union. One of
the reasons was advanced that upon
the basis suggested 1t would forever
establish the power and perpetuate the
injustice perpetrated by the United
Mine Workers."
