the EXCHANGE MEETS.
Important Meeting Held at
Court House Saturday
Afternoon

The members of the Morrison Coun.
ty Farmers Exchange met Saturday
afternoon at the court house pursnant
to the call recently issued by Presi-
dent Shelter. About so members of
the exchange were present. The
main business of the meeting was the
consideration Of the question Of dn-
anceS.
It seems that some time after the
organization Of the exchange, q consi-
derable amount of money, the sum az.
gregating about 800 was lost through
wheat deals, and again when the ele-
vator burned down, another 500 was
loans from local money loanera, the
total amount being about $1,000.
which sum was guaranteed by the d.
rectors and later assumed by them.
The notes fell due July l and at that
time bill of sale was given to the
directors for the stock etc., now
owned by the corpe ration, in consi.
deration of settlement. Since that
time the business has practically
been conducted by the Farmers Ex-
change Co. under the management of
P. A. Kull, one OF the directors of
the exchange. This company rep
resents the directors. The directors
have requested that these notes shall
be paid to them and au additional
81, 600 raised to meet incidental and
running expenses, whereupon, they
will relinquish the bill of sale, or
that the Exchange as a corporation
shall declare it's shares void and the
directors shall retain the merchandise,
stock, etc. All present seemed to
favor the plan that more money be
subscribed and the notes paid by the
members, and upon a motion being
duly made and carried, committees
we're appointed to solicit funds in
their respective towns as follows:
Pierz, G. F. Hoffman, Theo. Thielen
Elmdale, J. J. jacobson; Ripley, B.
J. Smith, Thos. Beaumont: Route
No. 8 Little Falls. l.. Leidenfrost,
VIM: Leidenfrost, r. Boehm; Little

further business, the meeting ad-
iourned.

had HEART DISEASE
Thos. Beaumont of Ripley
Falls Dead on Street
Saturday Night

Thomas Robert Beaumont, a well
known resident Of Ripley town, was
found dead Saturday evening at
about 700 O'Clock at the corner of
Broadway and Second street, north
east, death being caused. as was
shown in che autopsy, by an attack OF
heart disease.
Mr.. Beaumont drove into the city
Saturday morning principally to at
tend the meeting of the Farmers Ex-
change, of which he was q stock hold
or and director, and afterwards at
tended to other business matters here.
After supper he started to, hitch up
preparatory to leaving for home. BE
had been working about the buggy
for q short time, when several people
passing noted that he stood in a col
lapsed condition by the buggy half IN
and half out of the rig, with his head
reetine on his arms. Finally e.. A.
Hanson, travelling salesman en-
ployed by the Giant Grip Co., think
Ing the old gentleman probably a
little the worse for liquor, walked
over to him. intending to get HIM in
to his rig and started for home. He
spoke to Mr.. Beaumont, but as the
latter did not answer, he proceeded
to shake him, when, to his horror,
he realized that the man was lifeless.
Coroner N. W. Chance was called,
but decided that Mr.. Beaumont's
death was instantaneous and resulted
from heart trobule. The remains
were taken to the Simonet undertake
ing rooms, where an autopsy was held
early Sunday morning, which proved
beyond question that the old gentle
mans death was due directly to heart
failure, the result of an attack of
heart disease, with which the de-
ceased had been afflicted.
It is surmised that Mr.. Beaumont
was more than ordinarily excited dur
ing the day through the Farmers Ex-
change meeting, where he made an
enthusiastic speech before the stock
holders. When he cts rted to 60 home
it was already Late and the hurry Of
preparation added to the other excit-
ing tendencies of the day, brought on
the sudden attack of the disease which
resulted 80 fatally:
Thomas Robert Beaumont was born
in Wisconsin in 1916. He spent the
greater part of his life farming in
Wisconsin and Iowa and came to
Ripley from Iowa In 1908. He pur-
chased farm of 800 acres in that
town and made his home there since
with his wife and three sons. He also
left one son who resides in Iowa.
During the short time that Mr..
Beaumont was q resident of Fort Rip.
Icy, he acquired the friendship and
respect of all who knew him and his
sudden death will prove a matter Of
much regret to his many friends, who
! extend to the bereaved family thei,
most sincere sympathy.

N. P. VERY BUSY.

Traffic in the Northern Pacific rail-
road has never bsen, as heavy as at the
present time and the operating depart
ment Is at it's wits end to furnish mo-
tive power with which to handle It's
freight business. says the st. Cloud
Journal Press. On Monday last week,
109 east bound loaded cars of freight,
largely wheat. stood on the siding
ut Little Falls awaiting locomotives
to take them to their destinations.
The company is daily receiving new
locomotives from the eastern shops
and it is expected that the congestion
will shortly be relieved. This condi-
tion of affairs ia not confined to the
Northern Pacific by any means, fol
the day of the St. Joseph wreck near.
~ 30 trainloads were packed away in
the st. Cloud yards, awaiting the
clearing of the wreck. 1t is indeed q
healthy condition Of affairs and shows
that the country is enjoying season
Of much prosperity.
