Sad Havoc
Wrought By Storm.

Later reports from the storm
of last Friday show that the
damage from lightning in this
county was onething appalling.
Two storms seem to have united
near Crary and within a radius
|of twenty miles from that place
the force of the storm was spent.
The barn Of James Rubbelke,
mention of which is made else
where in this issue, was entirely
destroyed by fire, and in addi-
ton to the seven horses killed
by the lightning bolt, several
others were injured by the fire.
In Crary the houses Of M. a.
Miller and Fl. A. Nicholson were
struck and both considerably
damaged. Fortunately the
families were camping at Chau-
tauqua, otherwise tie results
might have been worse. y The
barn Of Phil McNanny in Crazy
was also struck. The barn on
Vim. Murray's farm was struck
and one horse was killed. Barns.
belonging to James Stewart and
James Henley were struck
though the damage was small.
Peter Swanson S house was
struck but not seriously injured.

+. Farmers Mill
Is Assured

2 j.
The Farmers Mill and Eleva-
tor association of this city is now
thoroughly organized and ready
for business. Monday of this
week the directors purchased a
block in tMaher & Locke S addi-
tion to the city between Eighth
and Ninth streets and fronting
on the Farmers railroad, and on
this splendid site they will be-
gin at once the erection of a
hundred barrel -four mill and a
SO, 600 to CSC, 900 bushel elevator.
IA large amount of stock has al.
ready been sold and the books
of the concern are now open in
this city to receive subscriptions
from all who desire to assist in
saving money for the farmers.
The two enterprises will be kept
separate, though owned by the
same people. 1t is the purpose
ofsthe farmers to handle their
own grain and thus save for
themselves the excessive profits
raa1sao1f their grain handled In
the ordinary way. The differ
ence between the home markets
and those of the larger grain
centers has opened the eyes Of
the people to the, tribute they
were paying to the elevators.
From eight to twelve cents per
bushel is too much profit for the
shipper. This is about the
amount realized however.
The mill propo ton is strictly
busine ssa one for the city. The
farmers are convinced after a
careful and thoro ugh. investiga-
ton of the whole matter, that
they can lnanufa cture as good or
a better grade Of flour than the
milling trust, and that by so
doing they would provide a To-
cal market for a consid erable
quantity Of Ram ey. county wheat
which now goes to Minneapolis
to be ground and comes back
to the county as flour, the con-
sumner paying the freight both
ways, and the seller losing the
bypro duets. Itonly takes acsim-
pie calculation to ascertain the
price the farmer gets for thequan-
3tity OF wheat which makes y

will show what he pays for the
barrel Of -four. The difference
in this alone to say nothing Of
the value of the byprc ducts will
give the freights and profits. 1t
lis the purpose of the farmers to
keep all these at home.
ut is argued that the construc-
ton Of the mill will work an in.
jury to the usinese interests Of
the city by destroying the flour
trade. This is certainly not
true. lie the new mill .inanufac-
lures a grade of flour equal to
twin city -four, the people Of the
county will buy it. The only
trade that could possibly be lost
would be that Of the farmer who
| has his. wheat ground for his.
(use. ButWhen that man CONES to
THE city with a load OF grain he
will buy other goods of larger
value than the -four, and this
trade will be more valuable to
the merchant, for it must be re-
membered that the retail profit
on -four is remarkably small. the
lexcessive profit being farther
down the line. But this is not
FAN. When the people find the
local mil can manufacture 8
Grade of -four as good as they
have been buying the local 1fier
chants will be enabled to handle
it at a profit equal to or better

Chautauqlla a
Great Success

LIZ vi LIE SlldutduG4ud aSSOCld-
ton closed last Tuesday, and.
when the grand Chautauqua
salute was given at the campfire,
there were many regrets that the
pleasant season had closed. The
program was an exceptionally
strong one. There were days
when it was not so probably, but
no engagement can forsee and
guard against these things. a
gentlemen from Grand Forks,
who was present on Grand Forks
day, stated that he was surpris-
ed at the high class of talent,
and that what he saw and heard
was equal to the best shows pro-
duced in that city to which a
dollar admission was charged.
AS the program for that day had
been arranged with reference
to the appearance Of Thos. w.
Lawson. it was only fair. Such
lis the Judgment Of men who
have seen good programs and
are competent Of passing judg-
slnent. )
The attendance has been re.
markably good, there being from
s, 900 to 5000 campers On the
ground all the time. On Bryan
day the crowd was simply enor-
nous. Some criticism Of the
railroad facilities and the res
taurants was made, but it must
be remembered that the associa-
ton is not responsible for the
railroad in any way, that being
IA strictly private concern, and
the eating houses merely under
estimated the prospective crowd.
They are conducted for profit to
the owners, and would certainly
not Intentionally deprive them
selves Of the revenue OF the best
day. They are owned by private
parties also.
The association is not a money
making concern, and today the
directors are carrying notes per
snnally endorsed by them to
cover the deficits Of other years.
This season will enable them to
largely reduce this debt and pro-
badly make some much needed
improvements. Insall probabili-
ty arrangements will be made
to;enlarge the facilities, as the
rapidly growing popularity Of
the resort, attracting people
from all parts Of the state, will
make this necessary. The pro-
gram will be made stronger and
better next year, covering a
wild range of talent with more
famous men and women IN the

are already being made to secure

THE STRUGGLE NEARER.
People Defy Efforts to Restore
Order bg Force.

st. Petersburg Dec. is delayed in transmits
sion).-Every development goes to show that the
government is, resolved to make attempt to
repress the agitation now existing throughout
Russia and TO restore order In the empire at
any cost. Every move made by the reaction
airy element has already met with open de-
fance. The Liberals, incensed at Count Whites
contemptuous reply to the zelnstvo resolutions
devisng plan to hold elections for con-
stituent independent government.
Liberals contend that there unmistakable
signs that the government Is preparing a coun-
ter revolution and they openly charge that
Count Witte has elected to take up the cause Of
the court against the people. and that all hops
from him is ended. Moreover. the belief is ex-
pressed that the present agitation marks the
end of WItte as Premier and that he will be
unable to survive court intrigues against him.
There many differences of oT1nfon, how
ever, and many believe that Witte must be
tanned under any policy, because his disappear
anee as Premier would be the signal of the final
collapse of Russian credit abroad
Members Of the Liberal party point to the re-
markabe reception which accorded to a
.deputation of the parties organized TO sustain
the autocracy at Tsarskoe- Selo yesterday. The
members oS this delegation included vladimir
Gringmuth editor of Moscow, who Frustrated
himself at the feet of the Emperor. Prince
oC4IeIDdpolls Oie Oh the DeSL knoWn or re-
dictionaries in Russia, presented an ikon, which
the Emperor kissed, promising that he would
personally give it to the Shoulder Monastery in
Moscow.
In address Prince Scherbapoff counselled
the retention of autocratic power and iInpIored
his majesty to trust the nobility, the clergy,
peasantry and the Cossacks, 1.-THE terror OF the
enemies of Russia"
Representative landlords have asked his
majesty in almost so many words to dismiss
Count White, who had proved 'powerless to
stop treason" and to begin stern measures and
rely upon the faithful elements of the popuIa-
ton to support your majesty's autocracy.''
The Emperor listened to such grim provoca-
tive sentiments without word of rebuke, and
the Liberals say that he replied with fair words
reiteratng the manifesto Of recent date which,
he said, represented This Interchangeable will
It is impossible to misunderstood the signifi-
canoe of such reception.
The Liberal press is unanimous regarding
Count Whites reply to the zemstvoists' resolu-
tons. This reply is regarded as a virtual chal-
enge TO the only body which might have saved
the situation.
The Russ terms this reply a bureaucratic
over body and soul, marking the failure of
Witte. The paper says that Durnovo is now
the power behind the throne. and "Witte as a
figurehead now takes stand the last until
the Constituent Assembly or Douma meets.
