City, Bismarck and all of the jobbing
and wholesaling centers of the state,
present and prospective.

There has been some complaint in
sections of a lighter crop than usual
but when the price is taken into con-
,sideration there cannot be much fault
found with this years crop results.
Wheat is selling in the state at a
higher price than usual, and in this
section of the state the price is close
to the dollar mark. In the eastern
part of the state good price is be-
ing paid. Durum wheat at many ele-
vators of the state is being sold at
so cents and more bushel and the
yield is fairly heavy. Barley has
sold for over seventy cents bushel
and the yield has run from thirty
to forty bushels to the acre. This
insures the farmer a splendid return
for his crop and means continued
prosperity in the state, and another
year of large immigration and steady
development.

Letters Produced in Trial Of
Senator BOfah Which :.

Look Bad

Boise, Idaho, Sept. 27-Half a score
of letters which the government at
torneys in the trial Of Senator Borah
declared go to show the completely
of former Governor Frank Steunen-
berg in the alleged Idaho timber land
conspiracy were offered in evidence
late today and read to the jury The
letters were written by William
Sweet, one of the indicted men, who,
it is reported, has turned states evil
dence. The documents were produc-
ed by J. H. Richards, who acted as
legal advisor to Sweet. 1900 " Wi
In one letter Sweet gave the
amount he was Sin" on the timber
deal, about $4,000, including a ST.
500 note signed by himself and Gov.
Steunenberg.
Senator Borah's name was drawn
into the case for the first time just
before adjournment when H.. r..
Workman, a local attorney, produc-
ed more letters from Sweet. In one
letter to Workman he wrote:
stRichard used his power of attor-
ney to turn all of my money, $1O,-
000,s over to steunenberg, and it is
like pulling a cat through a stocking
to get it back. I wish you would see
William e. Borah about this and get
him to make little statement of the
governors obligations to me-, He is
the governors attorney, but is aSfirst
class gentleman and knows the little
statement is only fair to me-. Nj

ATTORNEY \ FEES
JOHN a. SoRLEY AFTER A PIECE
OF BILLY WOODS ESTATE

Grand Forks, N. D., Sept. 27.-Suits
has been instituted by Atty John A.
Sorley to recover $1,000 from Mrs.
Dora "A. Wood, administrative OF the
estate of w. B. Wood, deceased. The
suit is based on the claim of Attorney
Sorley that fees are due him for de,
Tending Wood successfully in a $40
900 action brought a few years ago by
Lou Freeman and Andy Jones. Free
man and Jones alleged that Wood had
not properly administered as assignee
the assets of L. Freeman & Co, and
that as assignee Wood purchased for
himself notes and securities at an
amazingly low figure. >- Y 7
Associated with Mr.. Sorley in de-
Tending Wood was Geo. A. Bangs and
they fled a demurrer to the complaint
in Judge Cowan's court. Judge Cowan
oyerruled the demurrer and the SUI
premg court reversed him. Then the
plaintiffs amended their complaint
but Judge Kneeshaw sustained the de-
murrer. The plaintiffs appealed to the
supreme court and the verdict of
Judge Kneeshaw was sustained.
The legal battle was hard one and
Attorney Sorley feels that he is en-
titled to $1,000. He was unable to Sc
cure settlement OF the bill before the
death of Mr.. Wood last year Included
in the suit brought is $40 for the fore
closure Of a mortgage.
Geo. a. Bangs had his claim as at
torney settled before Woods demise.
In the present action he is attorney
for Mrs. Wood.

The Fargo Call observes that the
four big roads entering that city have
made tariff rates on jobbers COM
modities that give Fargo an equal
chance with the win Cities jobbers
and in some cases little advantage.
Through the efforts Of the railroad
commission the roads have granted
joint tarim rates that give the benefit
fit of continuous mileage tariff
instead OF the sum oftwo local tar
in rates This Is not so important
in towns located like Bismarck, Mi
not, Valley City and other centers
on the lines both Of the 500 and Mil
waukee, but iE especially important
TO Fargo where there must be a
continuous tariff to make 500 terri
tory available This, it would seem,
fs an Indication that the roads are
not disposed to- discriminate against
North Dakota, but rather to coop
crate with North Dakota merchants
to the end that jobbing houses and
industries may be built up here. 1T
Id To be hoped the new tariffs Will
result Ii the continued prosperity Of
Fargo. Grand Forks; Minot valley

Mrs. Anderson persists in intimat-
ing that the initiative and referen-
dunn was put through the last ses-
sion of the legislature by the whis-
key trust. The Times-Record takes
issue with the lady and says:
Mrs. Anderson is mistaken. 1t
was put through the legislature by
men who believe that the people
should rule. Mrs. Anderson evidently
believes that they should not. How
about, the new state of Oklahoma?

GILBREAT'H
MEETS UP WITH A LOT OF PEO-
PIE AT THE JEFFERSON
COUNTY FAIR

Jefferson, Wis, Sept 25.-Jefferson
is most interesting town and is PEG.
Piled by an enterprising and entertain
ing class of citizens, who receive
strangers with cordially and extend
to them the welcome of the city.
The county fair opened under. un-
favorable auspices. Old Sol did not
shine with favor on the fair and the
wind blew gale. The indications ara
more favorable and doubtless the sun
will let it's rays shine with glory on
one of the best county fairs in the
state of Wisconsin.
The North Dakota exhibit is most
fortunately located and will no doubt
attract attention, for it has so many
friends to aid and assist it. Among
those we met was Geo. J. Kiespert,
cashier of the Farmers and Merchants
bank, a brother-inlaw of G. A. Hee-
gard, manager of the Mandan Mer-
camille Co. Mr.. Kiespert has holdings
in real estate in North Dakota and
has sufficient confidence in that state
to refuse to sell He is one of the
progressive, leading business men Of
Jefferson and has the confidence and
esteem of it's citizens
In passing up the street we ran
across the name of Chas. Leutz. The.
| latter part of the name attracted our
| attention and we stepped into his
splendid and we'll stocked cigar store
and asked him if he was acquainted
or in any way related to the, dis.

ty. The inquiry from a stranger rath-

German, and of course he asked, as
was natural, who are your" The only

TRUE TO BISMARCK AND NORTH
DAKOTA.

The following editorial from the
dMinot Journal-while no doubt based
upon a misrepresentation of Mr.. Nc
Kennels intentions, is indicative of
the regard in which he is held by
ciate his energies, ability, loyalty and
strength. It is unlikely that Mr.. Nc
Kenzie intends to dispose of his pro-
perty in this city or state with a
view of cleaning up his North Dakota
interests and leaving the city or the
state. Mr.. Mckenzie has been a resi-
Bnt OF North Dakota for thirty
ears and more and in that time has
Been prominently Unidentified with it's
growth and development. He has
been a powerful factor in politics,
through his native ability, his gen
ius for organization, and because he
was fond of the game. 1t is true,
as the Journal states, that the state
has never been defrauded of dollar
through any of his political success
SEES, and his record as a public man
i is such as to commend the admira-
tion and esteem of unprecedented men.
Naturally, he has encountered the en-
nifty and opposition of many who
would like to have supplanted him as
a leader or overcome him in political
conflict. The Journals editorial
says: IT
4; nc is announced from Bismarck that
Alex. Mckenzie has sold all his pro-
perry in that city except the water
works, and pocketing the proceeds
LOO, 000-thinks of leaving North
Dakota. The dispatch says further
that Mr.. Mckenzie and Billy Bulge
5sof Grand Forks have invested heav-
lily in Canadian lands, and expect to
'dc some immigration business on
large scale. Well, Aleck has lived
i'm North Dakota for long time, and
has been live factor politically and
otherwise that has made the people
remember and think about all the
time Especially to Bismarck has he
been a valuable citizen, having done
more for the advancement of the Cap
ital City than any other man in the
state, and they will miss him over
there on the Slope. He has thous-
ands of friends-and thousands of
enemies, and among the latter, while
they have accused him of being a
faker and CRATER, we doubt if any
instance can be cited which indi-
Gates that, in all his political career,
he has ever turned deal or swip-
ed trick whereby this state has
been defrauded of a single dollar.
He always wanted the best of it for
Bismarck and the Slope, and got
1t IL he could-which he very often
could-and for this reason the Slope
was always solid at his back. He
has heart as big as an OK, never
forgets a friend and is slow to for
give an enemy. AS politician he
certainly has been pretty strenuous,
but the big kick against him was
from the smaller ealibered politicians
of the state in their inability to cope
with him. Still this report of Alexis
pulling ont of the state may be a
false alarm after all.

The Morton county fair closed for
the season last night in a way that
gave much satisfaction. J.

ing more could be said than that it

and the attendance was reasonably
large. @$ Sa Mr.
The principal features were the
races and the entertainment features
of the wild west nature.
The stockq exhibits were extra
good, but does not do the county
justice in number of farmers making
entries, nor the amount of stock en-
tered. This also applies to the grains,
fruits and vegetables and the women
of the county were not represented
in a way to give credit to so vast a
territory and so many families. There
was just enough to give an idea of
what the county can do and yet not

it is now an agricultural country.
Something more ought to be done
to make it county agricultural fair
than a ,Mandan wild west show if
the masses of the entire people of the
county are to be represented, unit
ed and benefited. s., .Fs5
The welfare of all would best be
conserved by keeping up the ,amuse-
ment features and races and to this
adding that which will unite the
farmers in helping to represent the
stock raising dairying and agricul-
tural interest of the entire country.
There were many compliments paid
the Center band by visitors to the
fair generally. The members of the
band are business men Of Center and
lot of bright and jolly good fellows
who have got together a musical or
ganization which would be a credit
to large city. The band was hand
