Arnold, N. d., Oct. 3-The shrill
otherwise still quiet air these bright
October mornings, followed by the
chug, chuging noise as it slowly sets
the great machine in motion which
separates the wheat from the char.
Merry shouts ring out from the
throats Of the threshers, who toss the
golden straw into the yawning throat
of the monster, to be torn to shreds,
robbed of its years boarding. then
elected, worthless and despised. For
this is the threshing season, the time
for the counting of the spoils Of the
years work, a time to make merry, as
we'll as to labor.
Yes, the threshing season is in its
height and returns Of the crop are an
actuality, not mere surmise. 1t is
found in most districts l have visited
the yield averages better than was es-
timated OF course in some places it
falls short, but the general run is con-
siderably over the amount expected.
August Trygg.
In talking with August Trygg, we'll
known resident of Gibbs township, he
told me the wheat on his place went
eleven bushels to the acre, so far. He
is about half through threshing.
August Trygg is well known and
we'll liked in the district, having lived
there some twenty years or more.
Quite a while, as time is counted in
this new country, but not long enough
for me to tire Of it, Here | have been
able to get home for myself, besides
an assurance of good living. When
first coming to this country I stopped
in New York city and vicinity for two
years, working in various mills and at
the carpenter trade, always making a
good living, but getting nothing ahead
My intention from the first was to go
west, where l could be Independent
and get home, so here I came, and
have never regretted it.
The Trygg ranch has an air of pros
perity about it, good to see. The house
is roomy and home like the barn large
and commodious. From appearances

COMPLETELY WRECKED.
Another Attempt to Launch Langley
Flying Machine.

Whitewater Va, Oct. S.-An unsuc-
ceSsful attempt was made during the
day to launch the Langley flying ma
chine. The machine vent about 100
yards ami is a complete wreck.
The machine at no time seemed to
travel under its own motive power.
but only went with the momentum 1t
received from the launching power.
Professor Manley. who was in the aero
drome. was not injured, but he re-
eeived a ducking. When the machine
struck the water 1t disappeared. but
only for a moment. The five empty
conical shaped floats performed their
functions we'll and the aerodrome was
soon floating on the water.
The big bird wings. which had ex-
tended IL by % feet were hanging
limp and bunglesome by the side OF
the frame: the propellors were
smashed to rags and splinters; the
rudder was a wreck and the wire
framework was a tangled mass. The
main body of the aerOdrome was
badly damaged but not beyond repair.
The motor. which was tested by Pro
fessor Manley. reached 1900 revolu-
tions a minute and the work was un-
Interrupted.

The Moyniers.
At the Moynier place the threshing

the commencement of this most i'm

portion of three sections.
The Moyniers come from Canada
and are of French extraction. which
extraction being applied to North Da-
kota seems to produce excellent re-
suits.
Victor Moynier, Jr., was seeing
the work of threshing, SO could stop
to talk but little. I'VE are behind in

Minneapolis Judge Refers to Alleged
Municipal Corruption.

Minneapolis, Oct. 8.-Judge C. NJ.
Pond delivered one Of the most SEN
sational charges to the grand jury
ever listened to by a grand jury in
Hennepin county.
The trouble in the ranks of the
grand jury in failing to agree caused
the court to take hand in the investi
cation in order to fully inform that
body of their duties in connection with
the charges of alleged municipal cor.
ruption and malfeasance in Office.
Judge Pond addressed the jury from
q written charge, which makes it
more probable than before that in

ellis. He referred to the talk which
was freely INDUCED in about the city
by reputable citizens concerning the
municipal corruption which is said to
have been prevalent in the past.

THE COMING PRIMARIES.

In deciding for wide-open primaries
the Republican Territorial Committee
takes chances with the public temper.
The threat of a citizens movement,
made after the meeting in which the
majority delegates of the Fourth Dis
trict surrendered to the minority of the
Fifth, was not an empty one. Had
there been any occasion to start citi-
zens' party then the result would have
been surprising to the politicians. But
Il was deemed best to wait and see
what the Republican primaries brought
forth. If the product was reputable
ticket, well and good then the occa-
sion for a bolt would have passed. If
not there would still be time to put
a citizens non-partisan ticket in the
field and sweep the Fourth District
with It and make serious inroads on
the Fifth.
Everything depends on the result
of the primaries which, according to
the decision of the Republican Territor-
ial Committee, are not to be confined
to Republican voters. Should the class
of delegates that framed the last leg
islative ticket win, then the taxpayers
will be driven, in self-defence, to frame
a ticket of their own. They cannot,
with any self-respect, vote for men of
the Kumalae- Kupihea-Ge class-and
they won't. come what may! 1t will
be well for the Republican managers
not to forget this warning and to do
their best to secure the election, at the
primaries, of delegates whose charac-
ter and antecedents commend them
to conservative members of the party.

The fight for the leadership of the G..

titled to 1t, will be turned down, and
