MOORS FIGHT SPANlARDS.
Tribesmen Put Up Desperate Fight
Against Trained Soldiers.

Malaga, Spain, July 26.-The steam
er Menorquin, with 80 wounded aboard,
arrived here today from Melilla, where
the hospitals are overcrowded. Pas
sengers on the steamer declare that the
residents of Melilla are panic-stricken,
the successes of the Moors giving rise
to the belief that they will swoop down
on the city itself. Fridays battle was
sanguinary, there being much hand-to-
hand fighting.
The Moorish tribes now gathered
close to General Marina's camp are es-
timated at 16, 900. Their recent losses
are said to have been nearly 1000.
The Spanish forces lost not less than
3, 600 men.
When the battle became general, the
Spaniards endeavored to trap the Moors
between two lines of fire. The tribes
men, however, were too wary and
fought desperately. They retreated
only when they were literally hurled
back, at the points of Spanish bayonet.
At dusk there was lull in the fighting.

Saturday, July 20.

Washington, July "a. - The hide
question was settled and unsettled to-
day, and, while there seems little doubt
that eventually hides will go on the
free list of the new tariff bill, the con-
test over their status cannot be re-
garded as closed. None of the ques-
tions made prominent through Presi-
dent Taft's interest in them were set
tied today, although the conference
was in strict executive session all day.
The conferees expect to spend large
part of Sunday wrestling with these
problems.

progress in canal construction all along

Friday, July 20.

Washington, July %. - While no
agreement was reached by the tariff
conferees today on coal, lumber, hides,
oil, iron ore, the cotton schedule or
wood pulp and print paper, it was said
tonight that the prospects of settling
these big questions tomorrow were ex-
cellent.
Heroic measures were used in an
effort to adjust differences between
the senate and house and to carry out
President Taft's program for reduc-
tion of duties on raw materials. All
the conferees said tonight that the
feelings they entertained for one an
other were more pleasant than they had
been for many days.

A Growing static.

In 1898 South Dakota had 100
banks with total deposit of $9,713,-
O00 In 1908, ten years later, the
state had 526 banks, with total de-
post amounting to $70,106,O0O.
In other words the number of
banks in ten years has increased by
three fold and the amount of depos-
its has increased by more than seven
fold.
In the state of South Dakota there
is $140 for every man, woman and
child in the state, on deposit in the
banks. Thus the per capita of the
bank deposits has increased five and
one-half times in ten years, and the
state stands well at the head of the
list in the amount of savings as
measured by the population of the
state.
The three states of Minnesota,
North and South Dakota have over
three hundred million dollars of de-
posts in the banks and the total
marks the wonderful increase in
prosperity in the great northwest in
the last ten years. The preceding
ten years: were years of stress and
trouble, but the northwest has won
its spurs. and its prosperity is fixed
and determined.
There is more buil1ing per capita
in the northwest, more deposits In
the banks, bigger crop production,
more new enterprises, and generally
speaking more things doing than In
any similar number of square miles
in the whole country.
South Dakota has just got started
in its growth, and the next ten years
will be bigger, ones than the decade
which has just passed. Argus
Leader.

walton. From this the family made
their living during the year. A frame
house was erected on the farm anI
start made toward prosperity which
was to come to him later in life.
Henry Lehnhoff was married, his wife
living in Wisconsin. She came to Ne
braska in the next year, arriving in
the spring. Then commenced farm
ing in real earnest and for twenty
five years they toiled and saved and
every year saw little stock of
worlds goods accumulate.
At the end of this time they con-
Guided that there was no longer use
in making the fight for, wealth as
they were well fixed and they moved
to the city of Lincoln. In that city
they purchased a home which is the
most beautiful in that city of hand
some homes. Their residence was on
E street and it was there that the
Angel of Death came upon him and
closed his eyelids.
ellis disease approached insidious-
ly and before he knew what was
coming he was stricken and the end
came. A further sketch of the life
of this estimable citizen will appear
in the Journal in the future.
ellis funeral will take place on
Thursday morning at the German
Lutheran church three and half
miles southwest of Louisville, Rev.
r. Hartman delivering the sermon
which will be in German. Inter-
ment will be in that quiet little
cemetery by the church which he so
well loved. Services in English will
be held also in Lincoln on Wednes-
day and the body will be brought to
Louisville on the Schuyler train
Thursday morning. A great num-
Der of old friends will be present to
pay a last token of respect to a fine
man.
There are no better men than
the late Henry Lehnhoff. He was a
man in every way in which he
could be taken. Genial, lovable,
thoroughly upright and man of
the strictest integrity, he stood
among the people Of Sass county as
mighty oak, towering erect in the
full grandeur Of sturdy manhood,
and his passing is that of one of
natures noblemen. There is little
more to be said of this splendid citi-
zen. He was all true man should
be and one can be no more"
The news was utterly unexpected
to Mrs. Schnasse, as she had not
been informed of his illness. She
has not been we'll herself this win
ter, and it is supposed her relatives
kept his condition from her for
that reason, hoping that one or both
would soon be better.
