puMoNT FARMERS ORGANIZE.

Cooperative Concern Patterned After
the Rockwell Association.
Special to FINES Republican.
Dumont Oct 29.-The Farmers Co
operative Elevator Corporation began
business here today.
The organization is complete with
money in the treasury after paying ",
100 for the elevator formerly operat-
ed by M. M. Ahrens.
1t Is composed of 11S members, pay
ing in $2r per share, and they own So
$50 worth of transferable stock. A
number OF the business men took five
shares each to give it a push believ-
ing it to be good proposition for the
town.
Is is organized largely upon the plan
Of the Rockwell corporation.
The president of the corporation
Hon. H c.. Brown, is an up-to- date
man of large interests in and around
Dumont and with the cooperation OF
the able secretary, A. e. Chambers
who understands the grain business
will make it a success we feel sure
Since the proposition has been agi-
tated. the price of grain has been from
2 to cents better in price than for
mer]y, and coal Immediately dropped
81 per ton.
The old line companies of which we
have two represented in town know
they are obliged to get busy" if they
get any business and expressed their
position today when they offered 1ao
more per buslel for mans oats than
the farmers could afford to pay. He
took his grain to them and paid back
into the formers elevator u per BUSH
ell and still made about s25 on the
amount of grain he sold them.
The number of farmers interested in
1t are some Of the best the county af-
fords and men of business ability. The
company will also engage in stock
buying.
Lincoln Howell has been engaged as
manager for this place.

WEATHER AFFECTS TRADE.
Fortunate Fall in Temperature Fol
lows Check Caused by Mildness.

lows Check Caused by MiloheSs.
New York Oct Or. G. Dun's
weekly review of trade says: Mild
weather early in the week checked
the distribution of seasonable goods
but had a permanent value in facilitat-
ing the harvesting of cotton and late
grain Subsequently the temperature
fell, restoring retail trade In wear
ing apparel fuel and similar products
to greater activity than was experience
ed a year ago. Building operations
are active. Manufacturing plants are
making steady gains. Labor is unus-
ually we'll employed. Railway freight
blockades cause some complaints and
earning in the three weeks of October
were go per cent larger than in 1908.
Foreign commerce at this port for the
last week exceeded the same period
a year ago by $1,5S9.779 in value of ex-
ports and $1,O14,S61 in imports. In the
iron and steel industry practically ev-
cry department except steel rails, has
aroused from the dull and depressed
condition SO long prevalent. Improve
ment is emphasized by the large or
ders for pig iron. Coke is strong for
the double reason that an increased
demand comes simultaneously with re-
duced output.
Textile manufacturing concerns are
again irregular Eminently satisfac-
tory reports come from the wooden In
dustry. Demand for domestic hides in
western markets continues sufficient
to absorb all offerings. After a long
period of dullneses there has occurred
a general advance Of small fraction
in foreign dry hides. Footwear orders
for spring delivery continue to come
forward. Failures this week numbered
233 in the United States, against 253
last year, and % in Canada, compar-
ed with Is q year ago.

CATTLE MARKET S'QN
The Large Supplies This Week
Have Caused a Reduction
of Is so ents
MEDIUM GRADES DECLINE MOST
Choice Beeves are Not Much Lower,
While Fancy Grades are as High as
Ever - Small Supplies of Hogs
Today Helped the Hog Market,
Prices Ruling 10 Cents UP.

Chicago, Oct. -Cattle-Extraord-
inarily large supplies this week have
caused a reduction of Is to so from las It
weeks prices, medium grades declin-
ing most and choice the least with
fancy beeves as high as ever. Re
ceipts today were five hundred, mostly
ordinary in quality and sold at low
prices
In view of the very feeble demand
from all sources and the liberal vol
ume of cattle which goes over unsold,
a small run will be needed here at the
start next week and the dealers assert
that fresh offerings of 10000 together
with the holdovers, will likely suffice
to fill the demand next Monday. The
whole trade has been badly chicken up
in the past few weeks and slaughterers
have been obliged to check operations
or suffer big losses, and it is now time
that country shippers should do like
wise.
Receipts of cattle at six markets
yesterday 1890 against 1900 week
ago, 1900 a year ago, and $4,000 two
years ago. Thus far this week 24S,-
700 against 100000 week ago, 245,000
a year ago and 23S,000 two years ago.
This weeks run was the largest in
over a year, or since the week ending
Oct. s, 1903, when 92,1S5 arrived, being
the largest weeks total last year.
Hogs.
There were about 10000 on sale to-
day. The aggregate offerings We're only
moderate in volume. There was an ac-
tive demand and prices averaged SOLO
higher, hogs selling 4.55@5.3 bulk
sales, 4.90@5.10.
There was less shipping demand and
while the general quality of the hogs
vas perhaps not so good as Thursday
here were fewer very poor hogs than
ity from day to day is showing the eff
corn.
Sheep.
Today's market was active to the
extent of the supply at firm prices.
Western lambs were almost minus
quantity here Friday. Buyers We're
looking over the market eagerly for
range lambs, both fat and feeders, and
the demand for feeding lambs has sell
1om been more urgent in the history
of this trade. A choice class is much
wanted at SIS, and the small trading in
fair to good feeding lambs this week
has been mostly at s4.50@4.s0, nothing
at all desirable to be had below that.
Very few feeders have been avail
albe lately and the experience of the
present week has been a disappointing
one to a swarm OF intending buyers.
At a time when feeders should be
moving to Ohio and Michigan by the
train load, the output is the lightest
of the season. There is no indication
OF erection Of the fall bargain counter
for the display of feeding stock. Pres
ent prices are intrinsicnlly much
higher than a few weeks ago. The
lambs making SIS this week were not
to be compared in quality with those
going at $4.75 recently. while $4,000
Ats has secured stuff of only indiffer-s
ent quality. Light feeding lambs, es-
pecially the stuff worth $4.2b@4.50 on
the present market, has been very
scarce, while on the strong weight
grades of feeders killers have given
keen competition.

negroes in Chicago, according to the Rev.

Brown college, Atlanta, Ga. who has
made an address at the institutional AZ
rlcan Methodist Episcopal church. There
are 5000 negro men and women in Chi
cago today who ought to be started
down south at once" he said. Fifteen
years ago I could get plenty OF money
here for tho education OF the southern
negroes. but when the green, unsubstan-
tial, ignorant herd OF brutes from tho
south came yelping up 20 Chicago. where
they have free bars. free street cars. free
hotels. where they can go where they
please and talk as thy please, things
were nearly turned upside down
THE southern negroes are not able to
meet conditions here. They are ignorant
and they are deceived. The best negroes
stay In the south but instead OF telling
these poor people the truth you In Chi
cago urge them to come where they can
vote.
IT would urge the practical and syste-
matte education OF all the faculties Of the
heart. the mind and the head. There
are too many poor ministers begging
through the south. Make your daughter
