TWO HUNDRED THOUSANDFARMER
Will Hold Products For High Prices
This Year.

Sometime ago there was repre-
sentative of the American Society OF
Equity in this city interested in form |
mo an organization of the farmers to
cooperate with the parent society at
Chicago for the purpose OF creating an
organization with 100000 member
ship that would be able to control the
price of all farm products in the mar
kets of this country.
The initial step Of the society has
been taken in an order from it's head
to hold their grain for the highest
possible price. There are on the books
of the society some 2OO,O 900 farmers
scattered over the United States and
it is anticipated by the order to shorten
the supply Of grain in the market to
an extent that will compel the payment
of at least 81 bushel for wheat.
Tt is not known how many farmers
in this vicinity belong to the organi-
cation. but if the meetings which have
been held in this city are any criterion.
there are very few and those who do
belong will hardly be bound by the
order if necessity compels them to sell
their grain when the time comes, for
want of adequate place to store it.
The project is wide in its scope and
is calculated to work a benefit to the
farmers, but in its incompleteness ii
will only be a detriment. The dis
posal of grain is often made necessary
bec.tuse of the need of money and this
will govern as long as there is no pro
vision made to advance money from
the society on the grain of its members
A non-partisan convention OF far

AGED PIONEER DIES ALONE
Fred Kuehn Of Sigel, Was Buried
Yesterday.
Man Buries Valuable Pay
pers in His Yard.
Saidto Have Practically Disinheri.
ted His Only Son.

Fred Kuehn, who for the past twent
years has been a widower and who
lived alone on his farm in the town of
Sigel, died Sunday at the age of IS
years and was buried yesterday, a
large number of neighbours and rela-
tives from this place attending the
funeral.
There is something pathetic in the
life of this man who came to his farm
in 1856, among the first of the settlers
to come to this part Of the state, hav
ing with him his wife he entered upon
the life Of the frontiersman only to be
driven from his home and possessions
by the Indians and the work of years
destroyed.
A son was born later and he grew
up to disregard the duties of child
to his parents and soon after the
mother who bore him died and the boy,
grown to the estate of manhood, de-
serted his father and left him in his
old age to shift for himself; thus he
lived for the twenty years that should
have been his happiest, and thus he
died. alone 1t is a sad commentary
on the ingratitude of children for their
| parents.
It is understood that there was a will
and that in the will the young man is
practically disinherited. The estate
is estimated by some to be worth in
the neighborhood of $50, 900. and there
is some curiosity as to what was done
with it.
Mr.. Kuehn was a peculiar and some
what eccentric man in his latter years
and the papers relating to his proper
ty and his will are buried somewhere
in the yard near the house BUTT is not
known just where, SO those interested
in the matter will have to wait until
after the ground thaws before they
be able to get at the papers.
Such is the story Of the end of one
Of the men who helped to make this
part of the state what it is and who
suffered all the privations Of those
earlier days that the present genera
ton might live surrounded by all the
blessings we now enjoy. Whatever
their condition or circumstances, there
is something about those early pio-
neers that demands the sincere respect
of all, for the,links in the chain which
binds the past to the present are rap
idly being broken, and those who were
pioneers in this country are rapidly
passing over to be pioneers in thai
land of the great beyond.

CITY SCAyENGER PERFORMS DUTY
Council Meeting Last Evening Was
Long and Busy.

The usual dull grind of the work of |
the city council was relieved last night
by what might be called touch Of
humor when the police report for the
month was read it was found that the
duties Of the city scavenger were being
multiplied to the extent that he was
ordered to bury one dead cat.
The session last night was a busy
one and large amount Of work was
transacted all of more or less impOr
lance and all necessary. 1t was found
that the city scales had brought into
the city treasury the sum Of Sl3 for the
month and as there is no provision in
the charter for the disposition Of the
money thus obtained the clerk was
directed to turn it over to the treasur-
er. The total amount accumulated
since the establishment of the scales
is SOL.
A committee Of residents of Frank
lin street appeared in their own interest
and petitioned for water mains to
supply their houses, but as there We're
not signers enough to the petition it
was Of no effect. It appears that there
is not capacity enough to the present
stand pipe to supply all the demands
Of the city as it appears they are in
creasing and Supt. Wagner has been
| at work on project to establish a
stand pipe on the bluff near Herman
park from which to supply the in
creasing demands of the city.
The job of sprinkling the streets
went to VIM. Huevelmann as he was
the only bidder. Instructions We're
given concerning the laying of mains

pointed park commissioner, the city
attorney supplied the information tina,
it would be necessary for the appli
cants for saloon licenses this year tc

which is double the amount of previ
Gus years.
Judges of election were appointed
for the various wards and a larg,
number of bills allowed.

TYPHOID FEVER AND
 CAUSES OF SPREAD
Communicated


 Several years ago while a resident tornia an epidemic of typhoid prevail. ed in the counties of Amador and Calaveras. On investigating the sani- tary conditions of the various towns of both counties they were found de fective. The county physicians of both counties met and made an examina- ton of the wells and water supply, and the following was the report hand ed to the county papers:
 That all wells should be unwatered and cleaused thoroughly and unslacked lime placed in the bottom; the same should be cleansed twice or three times year.
 That all water coming through wa ter pipes should be boiled and ilet stand to cool before being drank That filters should be placed on all water taps in houses where pipe water was used for the following reasons:
 "First-That water coming from the snow-capped Sierras was polluted and contaminated with decomposed mat ter-the. germ of typhoid fever"
 The same stands to reason. will now endeavor to give the reader a chance to think for themselves. Dur ing the late spring and early summer months of each year new life of bugs. worms. etc. are matched and exist during the warm months. In the fall of the year the same md shelter in dead and fallen trees, rocks and apertures in the ground and die in the course of time. decomposition sets in. When the first rains and snow falls in the fall (and nothing is more penetra- tive than snow melting) the decom- posed vegetation and dead animal matter is carried to the various streams and finds its way into the rivers which supply the various towns and cities with water loaded with typhoid germs, hence the cause of typhoid during the fall more so than at any other time of the year.
