The annual mark down prices of
grain is now going on at the Chicago
Board of trade, this is in con-
formity with the plans of the
gamblers and the elevator trusts.
Before the days of the board
of trade the method used to rob
the farmer, of his toll, was to
take from him by physical force
all of the products Of the sweat of
his brow, LEAVING him just enough
on which to live until the next
crop, this was in the days of the
robber barons.
Today we have civilization. the
methods of despoiling farmer
are more refined. the board of
trade men figure out about what
grain grower needs to carry him
until next crop then. by the use
of lies, circulated in the press,
showing an immense crop pro-
duced. the price of grain is manip-
ulated to a point that will deprive
the producer Of a profit, leaving
him only substance.
The question of dealing with this
problem has l,een fully worked out
by the society Of equity, who have
been educating their members to
pool their crops, and market them
at a fair profit, by control of the
selling, so adjusted that only the
demand from day to day is sup
piled.
While the equity members know
what to do. there are thousands of
grain growers who do not, if
they will not listen to what the
society teaches, perhaps they will
pay attention to what men OF
national prominence have to say.
Senator McCumber stated recent.
ly on the floor of the United States
Senate, that plan was on foot tt
plumber the producers of grain, anc
that they must combine, use all Of
their force as a unit, stop the
dealings in future, and relegate
the gamblers to Jail if need be,
but stop gambling they must il
they prevent themselves from being
reduced to serfdom."
The society of equity will guide
the farmer through the struggl,
and bring him to the safe ant
honest market, for his grain.

She is reported as doing we'll.
The team harnessed to the city
water wagon and left standing
unhitched came alive Monday
morning and ran out Of the Kend-

house. They stopped when they
collided with a tree, but broke
the wagon up some.

Florence Williams and Lawrence

Mont, last week. Both were we'll

express best wishes for the future
of the young people,.
O. K. Kendley has been running
the local tank pump steadily for
a week past, and will probably
continue for some time as the
water supply along the line is
practically out of commission.
Nearly every passing train stops
here to water the engine and it is
a heavy draft on the supply as fur

The bank at Medora is nearly
ready to begin business. The

put in c. Pederson's temporarily,

pounds of manganese steel, fitted

melancholia.

learn to read and write and cipher,
while others minds wander far

sister the classic dances that have
won her fame and riches. reached
this city recently from London. after
an absence of nine years that were
spent almost entirely in Greece.
Duncan, who halls from San Fran

of new-thought theory, which has
as its basis new and harmonic law
of universal potency, which he claims
to have discovered while making a
study of ancient Greek music In a
surprising interview he stated that
he will demonstrate that all human
life may be SO regulated under this
law as to make it almost perfect. In
its practical application the new the
ory consists in regular manual and
other tasks in conformance with d
rhythmic system.
All the tenets in the new Duncan

Paris.-James Gordon Bennett OF
the New York Herald was challenged
to fight a duel last week with swords,
automatic revolvers or anything else
he wanted. Mr.. Bennett since the
choice of weapons was left to him
chose a policeman.
The challenger was Edward Furgie.
well known as a life insurance agent.
Furgie is an American who has lived
thirty years in Paris and thought he
was entitled to adopt French methods.
In seeking redress after a quarrel with
Mr.. Bennett he sent seconds to the
editor. who refused to receive them.
Mr.. Furgie then sent a letter asking
that his seconds be received He re-
called Mr.. BENEFITS former exploits

No. Rue de Hclder, with threats to
have him expelled from France as an
undesirable American is he did not
withdraw his challenge. Upon Fur
gie's refusal Mr.. Bennett Mlote him a
letter which is now the talk Of the

The letter consisted Of two lines
stating that he had transmitted the
