POTATOES.

The chief statistician, U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture, Washing
ton, D. c., in his January (19O4)
Report, shows that the total pro-
duction of potatoes for the year
1903 was 247,127,800 bushels, or
7,5O4,9O7 less than the year before.
This shortage occurs entirely in the
middle west, principally Minnesota,
Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, Kan
sas and Nebraska.
New York leads in the produc-
ton of potatoes over all other states
so per cent, and Minnesota ranks
ninth, raising, in 1908, $3.50, $50 as
against 1882, $50 bushels in 1902.
Prices of late at the loading sta
tons throughout Michigan, Wis
consin and Minnesota ranged from
70 to 80 cents, while at Greedy, Co..,
potatoes went as high as $1.1O per
bushel. Whether OF not these fig
ures will be maintained throughout
the season is a question. There are
many reports from Maine to Mon
tana, that owing to the severe cold,
large amounts of potatoes were
frozen in the farmers cellars and
this with the rot will as the season
advances make the prices higher.
Eighty to ninety cents at loading
stations for seed potatoes means
all the way from $1.5O to $500 per
busEel to the farmers that plant
them in the south. This IN view
of wheat round the 100 mrrk will
cut down the seed potato average.
1t therefore appears chat Soc to 9Oc
now is not to be sneezed at, and
that there are ten chances for the
market to drop where there is one
chance for the market to 80 up
Mimi. exchange.

Advices Of the 18th inst, state
st. Petersburg is greatly excited
over an apparently reliable report
that the magnificent battleship,
Petrcplavlosk, having on board a
large number of prominent naval
officials, was sunk by a mine and
all but four of the officers drowned.
Vice Admiral Makarotf is reported
to have lost his life, together with
800 Of the crew, and as a conse-
quence Port Arthur is in mourn
ing. The feet had sailed out of
the harbor to meet the Japanese,
but on espying a superior arma-
ment, put back with the above re-
suit.

The delayed trains on the B. W.
d q. F. Ry. necessitated the max
ing Of his own ink by the editor OF
The WAsHBURN LEADER for the is
sue of the 3lst ult., and Judging by
the appearance of it he is no green
hand. We r going to learn the
art of making paper before another
winter.-Goodrich Citizen.
We believe that a very good pa
per can be made from cottonwood,
and it might pay the editor of che
Citizen to experiment along that
line. We are not going into the
ink business just at present, but
when there is a shortage we can
work up a "brew."

Hon. E. Y. Sarles, the Hlllsboro
banker, is growing in popularity
with North Dakota Republicans as
time is rolling by and convention
time approaches. Sarles' boom for
governor, and his apparent strength
in the coming convention, is OF a
much healthier nature now than it
was two years ago. Many state
papers, who at that time opposed
his candidacy, are now his staunch
supporters.-Kenmare News.

1t is noticed that the Bismarck
Tribune has suddenly become So
fictitious for the welfare of Cover
nor White. 1t rushes wildly to
his defense since the result in
Barnes county where the storm
king prevented a victory for Hon.
George Young. True the Tribune
with characteristic caution, doesn't
entirely commit itself to Merger
Whites candidacy, but continues
to carry as near an equal amount
of water on each shoulder as is
possible for one SO heavily laden
with cares of statecraft from q
Burleigh county standpoint. It is
a little embarrassing for a few of
those Burleigh county benificiaries
of Governor White who always in
sist on roofing all others from the
public crib that they may satisfy
their rapacious maw. Pretty tough
ON those self-constituted bosses
who attributed all the virtue to
Burleigh county grafters and look
upon the ambition of the other
Slope counties for slight recogni-
ton in return for party loyalty,
year after year, as ridiculous and
imbecile, to face reversal of. those
conditions. A united slope" is
their cry always to entrench them
selves in soft places while crumbs
are good enough for the other
counties whose leaders and voters
have always contributed so largely
to the glory and success Of the
capital city. But Burleigh county
is no longer the hub; the dictates
of a few barnacles in Bismarck will
not be tolerated any longer. The
Missouri Slope will assert it's indie.
pendence. 1t will endorse a man
for governor whose mind is broad
enough to take in the whole state
and one for whom it will not be
necessary, in order that he may
carry his own county, to bring into
action the support of his staff Of
icers and travel from house to
house making personal appeals for
help to save him from ignomy and
defeat. The slope will stand by a
man like Sarles whose heart is ten
der enough and whose generosity
is broad enough to lend his aid to
grief stricken and starving peoples
Of other lands when appealed to by
proper authority. A second term
of White was bad enough, a third
term is nauseating in the extreme.

This is a pretty topsy- tervyworld
says an exchange. One man wants
justice, and another fees from it.
One man saves to build a house, an
other offers to sell his at less than
cost. One goes into debt to get
married, another spends a hundred
thousand plunks to get divorced.
One is never sick but gets killed
OH the railway. One is on the cars
everyday without getting hurt, and
dies with measles. Such is life.

OPENING OF THE CAMPAIGN.

The meeting of the republican
central committee and the fixing of
the date of the county convention
marks the beginning of the cam
paign in this county this year. The
meeting of the county vas we'll at
tended and the matter of holding
one or more conventions was
thoroughly discussed pro and con-
In view of all the conditions and
thefact that the counties through
out the state generally are holding
but one convention this year, it
was decided to follow this rule
The representation was fixed in ac-
cordance with the recommendation
of the state committee and the es-
custom of this county.
The voting precincts at the last
general election constitute the eau
Gus precincts with the addition Of
three civil precincts which were al
lowed zone delegate each in the con-
vention. Many of the old voting
precincts have many more voters
now than at the last election and
the county commissioners will be
upon to establish several
new precincts to accommodate new
voters, but under the law the CON-
mittee could only follow the old
precincts for, caucus purposes.
Tnasmuch as there will be but
one convention held in this county
this year and that on the 10Th OF
May, for the purpose Of selecting
to both state conventions,
to the judicial conven-
ton, delegates to the legislative
convention and to nominate a +,
county ticket, tits hoped and ex-
that there will be a full turn
out in every precinct at the prima-
RES on May 18th, and that the con-
vention this year may be thorough
[y representative to the end that a
ticket will be nominated
one that will command the united
support Of the party ana tend to
Keep Mclean county in the envi-
Die position of the banner repub-
lean county Notwithstanding the
act that the democrats this year
Will be in the field with a complete
ticket this presidential year. While
It may seem rather early to nomi-
nate county officers, the active
will not begin until later
the season and as all conventions
will be out of the way the farmers
will have an interrupted season for
heir work with the exception of
on the 18th and conxen-
ion on the 18th of May.
