Importers who may be interested will
be disappointed at finding, from the
Advertisers Washington correspond
ence. that Representative Cushman's
bill only relates to single private
claim, the claimant being constituent
of the introducer of the measure. The
bill was at first mistakenly understood
TO cover refund of all duties paid
without protest on goods that had been
shipped from the United States to Ha-
wall prior TO July I, 1898, and reshipped
to the United States between that date
and June IA. 1900. Certainly the text
quoted in Mr.. Walkers former letter
bears the complexion now said to be
erroneous.

WAS SHE POISONED?
Mystery Still Surrounds the Death of
Mrs. Never.

Mystery still surrounds the death of
Mrs. Meyer, the Kiester woman whose
body was found near Belle PLANE, Iowa.
The Wells Forum of this week says of
the case:
"Last week The Forum published a
story to the effect that bottle of car
bolic acid had been found near where
the body of Mrs. Meyer was found at
Belle PLANE, Iowa. The bottle bore the
label of Leroy, ILL.,, druggist, and it
was thought that this might be clue to
the murderer. There was rumor that
Mrs. Meyer had been corresponding with
a man at Leroy, and that after this
story came out in the papers, this man
feared that suspicion might attach to
him, and he had left the bottle of car
bolic acid where it might be found, and
thus establish suicide theory.
"The sheriff at Belle Plaine took the
bottle and went to Leroy, Ill, where a
niece of Mrs. Meyer identified the bottle
as one she had taken with her to Mrs.
Meyers place year ago and left there.
This girl had been on visit to- Mrs.
Meyer, and as she was troubled with
toothache, she had taken with her bot
tie of carbolic acid which she had pro-
cured at her home town of Leroy. When
she left Mrs. Myers place for home she
left the bottle there, and the girl identi-
fed this bottle as being the same one, or
one just like it. The girl is daughter
of Mrs. Myers sister, who lives at Le-
Roy, and it is to this sisters place it is
supposed she was going when she left
home.
Thinking that perhaps Mrs. Meyer
may have committed suicide, the sheriff
came to this county and last Tuesday
he had the body of Mrs. Myer taken up
and her stomach taken out by DIR. P. f
Holm, who is deputy coroner of this
county. The stomach and parts of the
intestines were sent to the state univer-
sity at Iowa Falls, to be examined by
the chemists there to see if they could
find any traces of poison in it. DIR
Holm, when seen by The Forum about
the matter, said that the body was some.
what decomposed, and he was unable to
tell whether there had been poison in the
stomach or not
! "Up to this time nothing has been
developed which in any way tends to
unravel the mystery surrounding the
death of this woman"

DEPENDS UPON THE SOIL
Success of Public bitches Is Not Al
ways Assured.
From Saturdays Daily.

From Saturdays Daily.
County Surveyor Brooks is engaged in
making the survey and estimates for the
proposed public ditch in Vernon Center.
The ditch will, if constructed as planned,
consist of a main and two branches,
and will empty into a creek that drains
into the Watonwan river at Garden
City. All of the ditch, which is to be
seven miles long, will be in Vernon Cen
ter township, and it will drain consider
able land that can be made valuable.
The amount of the land that can be
drained has not yet been estimated, but
it will not be as much as is drained by
sidering the value of the land, it would
mean as much to the farmers as any of
the other bitches in the county.
Some of the public bitches constructed
have not fulfilled the sanguine expecta-
lions of the people who petitioned for
them, while others have done all that
was expected. In speaking of this mat
ter today, County Surveyor Brooks said
that the bitches located in the heavy
black soil that have received proper care
in keeping them open have given splen-
did service. In sandy soil, where the
sand blows and drifts, the open bitches
are not success where deep cuts have
been made. Shallow bitches in such
soil are all right if they have the right
slope for the sides.
Mr.. Brooks states that no ditch can
be made and then be left without care
and give good service. bitches, like
fences or other improvements, must be
taken care of.
Ditch No. l, in Mcpherson and Medo,
and ditch No. 2, in LIE Ray, have done all
that was expected of them. Ditch No. 4,
in Lincoln and Garden City townships,
drifted full of sand in places where there
were deep cuts. 1t did some good, but
not what it should have done.
The Medo and Danville ditch, that is
now partly constructed, has given splen-
did service as far as it has been con-
structed.

ELMORE's ELECTRIC LINE.
Trolley Cars to Run Through That
VILLAGE TO Fairm0nt.

The Gilmore Eye publishes the follow
ing in regard to a proposed electric line
that will pass through that village:
'We shall aim to keep the subject OF
the electric road fresh in the minds OF
our Elmore readers, for this is good
thing, hence push it along is good
maxim.
at is expected that meeting will be
held at Buffalo Center at an early date
when the promoters of this enterprise
will put before the people their propo-
sition and will give all information per-
tanning to it. When this meeting is
held our business men should send a
large and enthusiastic delegation.
"As was stated before, this proposed
road is to be extended from Britt to
Buffalo Center and thence to Gilmore and
Fairmont. This would give excellent
passenger connection with the Minneapo-
lis g. st. Louis, the Milwaukee at Britt
and the Rock Island at Buffalo Center,
and large territory west, tributary to
us, would make Elmore as trading
point, in short would give us many adj
vantages.
cit is proposed to run the line along
the public highways, on the other side
of the fence. Depots for loading freight
will be established every mile along the
line The rates charged for carrying
freight and passengers will not be more
than one-half as high as those charged
by steam railways. Passengers may
board or leave cars at any point along
the line.
can electric line will not cause a lot
of little villages and hamlets to spring up
which will take away business from the
larger towns situated, as has been the
case when the line east of Gilmore was
built"

ORGANIZE AN EXCHANGE.
Rice County Farmers Get Together
on a Plan.

More than one hundred farmers were
present at the meeting held in the court
house at Faribault on Thursday after
noon last for the organization of a
Farmers Exchange.
The meeting was called to order by
w. S. Weatherston, treasurer of the
state organization, and Joseph Dunn was
elected temporary secretary.
The following permanent officers were
elected: President, S. j. Leahy; vice
president, Theodore Thorn; secretary,
Joseph Dunn; treasurer, William Muir
ply.
Mr.. Weatherston was called upon to
state the object of the meeting. Mr..
Weatherston said that Mr.. jackson, pres
ident, or Mr. Mcdonald, secretary of the
state Farmers Exchange had been ex-
pected to be present but in their alb
sence he would make statement. He
said that about one hundred farmers
met Oct. 9th, at the exposition building
to take measures for effecting farmers
organization, representing all parts of
the state. A temporary organization
was effected, and plan devised for the
organization of counties and the county
committees to organize the towns. After
having organized, state convention will
be held the first Tuesday in February.
The Farmers Exchange was started in
Indiana about year ago, embracing
farmers of the middle west; and includ
ing Tennessee. The speaker called at
tention to the census of 1900 which
showed total population of 100000
of whom AZ per cent were farmers. Nine
ty nine per cent of the crime is commit
ted in the cities; only one per cent by
persons on the farms.
In his township there had been but
one lawsuit in fourteen years, and only
one robbery, which was a henroost and
the thief was man from the city.
There were many things to admire in the
cities but they were dens of corruption.
The speaker called attention to the re-
port of the secretary of the treasury
showing that our exports exceeded our
imports by over $7OO,OOO,OOO. Of the bill
lion dollars worth of goods we have sent
abroad the cities furnished but $300,OOO,-
900; the rest was from the farms. If
we had only the exports from the cities
to depend upon how would the books
balance? He mentioned these facts to
show the necessity of organization. Farm
ers have as much ability as the operators
and gamblers of the city exchanges but
the latter triumph through organization,
and have made the farmers business the !
poorest in the world. The speaker dwelt |
upon the injury inflicted upon the farm |
ers by the manipulations of the produce |
gamblers, and referred to the organiza- |
tion of the grange, which had died in con-
sequence of its having been given up to
the control of politicians. He concluded |
with an explanation of the plan of or
ganization of the Farmers Exchange |
which was destined to embrace the
country.
Remarks were made by S. j. Leahy,
Joseph Dunn and Theo. Thorn and the |
township organizers appointed:
John McNerney, Walcott; John O'Brien,
Wells; Geo. Durland, Cannon City; Au-
gust Schmadeke, Wheeling; Patrick |
Smith, Shieldsville; Samuel Chapman,
John Clarkin, Erin.
