REGIMENTAL POST
 MOST IMPORTANT

Fort Whipple can best be learned by considering the present methods that prevail in military circles in a gar rison of this size and which is given below in it's entirety:
 As constituted at the present time there will be twelve companies, each with sixty-five enlisted men or in the aggregate 7SO men and one band of 2S men.
 In regimental post there will also be a machine gun platoon of 21 men. Two Vicer Maxim guns will com pose this battery.
 In commissioned officers there will be:
 One colonel.
 One lieutenant colonel.
 Three majors.
 One chaplain.
 Fifteen captains.
 Fifteen first lieutenants.
 Fifteen second lieutenants.
 One captain (doctor).
 Two lieutenants (dOctoTs).
 In the hospital corps there will he fifteen men.
 The post non-eommissiOned staff will comprise three officers.
 The regimental non-commissioned staff will compose five officers.
 The battalion non-eommissioned staff will compose three officers.
 The above comprises the enlistment force and totals 924 men. To the service there will be added one am bulanee, 20 wagons of four mules each and one civilian teamster for each. one wagon master, three ass;s- tant wagon masters, one blacksmith. one wheelwright and one plumber, making an additional thirty men, or .n round numbers an even 1000 men on duty.
 Under present conditions prevailing at the above post it will be impo'- sible to accommodate in barracks or quarters this force and it will be necessary before this order is carried out to construct four more double barracks, one hand barracks and at least thirty-five officers quarters, with several non-eommissioned off cers' quarters.
 The original plans to this effect were outlined in the rehabilitating of this post and before he was ordered to take station at Honolulu, Major Waleutt stated that he believed it to be the purpose of the war depart ment to carry out this purpose to make Whipple at some future time a regimental center and he laid ont the grounds on that line for future action.
 The recommendation of General Thomas will hasten this movement and from the prominence of this commanding officer of the depart ment in which Whipple forms a nucleus, the prevailing belief is that at the termination of the next fiscal year on June 3Oth, congress will make an appropriation that will cover the construction of the buildings to ae- commodate the regiment that is asked for and which will run to over half million of dollars.
 To maintain a regiment as consti- tuted above will require a monthly pay roll running close to S2,50o to each company, or including the civil ian employees in the various depart ments, total of at least $45,000 per month for the garrison.
 The quartermaster and commisssry expenditures will run to a heavy sum as well, and a greater portion of this outlay will reach civilian channels in many avenues.
 MINING TRANSACTION CLOSED.

 Stamps will commence to drop on ore from the Dividend mine of the Mt. Elliott Mining and Milling com pany some time this week. The. re- cent repairs started on the plant have practically been completed and it is now the desire to treat the heavy tonnage that results from the steady mine work of several months of op- eration. This plant has a capacity of ten stamps and with the mechanism perfected after so long a time of idleness, considerable interest in min ing circles is attending the resump- tion of this department of the enter prise. From the deepest workings of this property the most gratifying re- ports are heard. At the bottom of the 53O-foot shaft the company is running two drifts east, and both are in ore, one reaching a point of 70 feet and the other 3 feet, cutting into a fine ore body. In prosecuting work along these lines the Objec- tive point desired to be reached is the old Ticonderoga vein, which prop

 erty is practically speaking the fouH- dation of gold quartz mining in the Chaparral section, if not in northern Arizona. On the surface of this old mine fabulous sums in free gold were mined in the pioneer days, but this character of metal changing to a rebelliOus condition with depth, work necessarily stopped when the arastra grinding method would not give the customary yield. The purpose of the Mt. Elliott people is now to reach that vein, and in going to great depth on the Dividend as planned, the Iii eonderOga ground will be tipped at point over 100 feet below the former workings. The Dividend vein is hold ing its uniform grade with depth, and after the erosseut work is completed to reach the Teonderoga, the main working shaft on the system will be sent down to greater depth, the inten- ton being to operate the grotp on an extensive plan and in which the mill run will materially facilitate this method of general development

Grand Forks. Nov 81. NJ. Ander-
son, secretary and treasurer of the
Society of Equity for this state, has
been a visitor in Grand Forks for the
past few days and will return this
morning to Casselton to resume his
duties at the headquarters of the Or
ganization. When asked yesterday
to explain the object of the society
and whether or not the organization
was trying to effect a corner on
wheat, in order to raise prices abnor-
mally high, Mr.. Anderson made the
following statement
''No. People who believe that
have failed to understand the object
and mission of the American Society
of Equity. The word corner sug-
gests the idea of trust. Our soci
ETY. is not trust, but simply mu-
tual organization, existing for the
purpose of educating the farmers in
the business principles connected
with farming. The world has at last
recognized the fact that the farmer,
besides being a herdsman and till
er Of the soil, is also a business man.
A systematic marketing of agricul-
tural products is, in fact, the most
important phase or a farmers voca-
ton. Now, where can the farmer re-
ceive the knowledge or information
required in this phase of his work?
Business colleges can teach him book
keeping. Agricultural colleges teach

the science of production; but no.
where, except through mutual organi-
cation, can farmer obtain know
ledge as to where his products are in
greatest demand, which markets are
glutted and which are not, etc. 1t is
information of this kind that the
American Society of Equity will in
the future endeavor to give.
Farmer at Disadvantage.
The present system of marketing
leaves the farmer at the mercy of
commission men and spectators. To
illustrate the force of this I will re-
cite the experience of farmer en-
gagged in berry raising at Baraboo,
Wis. He shipped one day a con-
signment of blackberries to a fruit
commission firm in Chicago. and with
the first mail received the report
that the berries were spoiled while in
transit, and were consequently sold
for 40 cents per crate-the old story
so to speak. The day on which the
Chicago consignment had been made
the farmer shipped also berries, of
the same kind, picked from the same
patch, to Fingal, N. d., for which he
received, above extra freight charges
$1.70 per crate. In Fingal there
happened to be an honest middleman,
and market that hadn't been glut-
ted by over shipments. The exper-
fence Of this man has been duplicat-
ed by thousands Of farmers in the
fruit growing districts. These farm

Mcintosh Farmers Come Out On Top
In Competition With Their Breth-

Ashley, Nov. 9-It will no doubt be

that at fair le.G at New York city
during the latter part of the month
of September, in connection with the

products from Mcintosh county,

from many states of the union.
Mayer Mackoff was the delegate
sent to the convention by the Nc
Intosh county branch of the feder-
alton and he took with him several
samples of products which we're
awarded prizes as follows: Pota-
toes raised by Chain Wodlinger, first
and second prizes; hard wheat raised
by Chain Wodlinger first prize: fax
raised by S. Rapport, first prize;
blue stem wheat raised by F. Rapo-

some Of these prizes were won in
competition with samples offered by

cultivated grains especially for the
purpose of exhibition. The judges

Equity, to the end that they may
have representatives in all sections
of the country to keep them inform
ed on the conditions of the markets,
with reference to the visible supply

chants. 7
How Price Is Determined.
We, in North Dakota, have been
told that the price on grain is deter
mined by supply and demand. A
careful study of the markets reveals
the falacy of that doctrine. Take for
!, instance the market report as given
by the Minneapolis Journal Nov. 2.
Under the heading, Duluth Grain"
we read: FLAX shorts got some re-
lief today, the price being hammered
down 5 cents under the pressure of
heavy receipts" In other words,
had the receipts been higher the
price would not have been hammer
ed down." How long must our farm

juggling as that? We have, in the
past, given no thought to the cost of
production. The Society of Equity
will guard against the sale of the
farmers wares al G loss to the pro-
Queer.
1t is estimated that the farmers of
North Dakota each year give away
screenings to the value of $150,000.
They pay annually one million dol
lars to the old line commission firms
for the privilege of having their
grain offered for sale. 1t is estimat-
ed, too, that the grain dealers make
an average of from 10 to Is cents
per bushel in the process known as
the mixing of grades" All this is
at the expense fthe farmers. BY
means OF termmal elevators and pro-
per organization these iniquities can
all be done away with, and the voca
ton of farming placed on higher
and better PLAN"

Saws Pearys Accusations Are Found
ed Upon Statement Of an Ignorant
Man Who Was Not Informed.

NEW YORK, September 20.-Wire-
less messages received from the

saying in reply to inquiries regarding
the Peary charges:
81 will not enter into any contro-
versy until | know definitely what
has been brought against me, and
whence it emanates. Commander
Peary's general and articulate charges

ed the pole on
His accusations are foundee pure
ly on statements given him by an
ignorant man, whom l purposely kept
from learning the facts. When | land,
| will examine the charges and reply
when the proper time comes. Peary's
declaration that he is the only man
who has been to the pole and will
prove, it still awaits proof. AS to the
affirmation that Peary has evidence,
is based on the word of Murphy, the
boatswain, who is unable to read or
write.
Il have already expressed my readi-
ness to lay my observations before a
committee from scientific bodies and
the verdict of that committee will just
ify my story.
within two months at the outside,
probably earlier, my records and in
struments will all be ready for the
official tests. l shall send them to

covery of the pole. After that they

Another important recommendation
DR.. Mclean will make will be the
passage of an order requiring all
railroads to furnish individual drink

passenger will have to use the same
cup that has previously been used

N ALLISIER IS
STILL SECLUDED
Former Legislator, Adjudged Insane,
Still Refuses to be Taken to the
State Asylum.

Special to The News
JACKSON, Miss, September 90
There have been no recent develop
ments in the celebrated w. S. Meal
lister insanity case, AMI the ex-legis-
lator from Madison evidently has his
enemies thoroughly bluffed, as no eff
fort has been made to have him trans
ferred from his home near Canton to
the Mississippi Insane Hospital in this
city.
McAllister recentlf requested Gov
ernor Noel to aid him in securing a
habeas corpus proceeding to test the
legality of the lunacy commitment,
but this proceeding has not been in
stituted in this city or Madison county.
Governor Noel left the state today
for Louisville, KY, to attend the meet
ing of the Tax Commission and will
be absent for a good portion of the
| week.
| Apropos of McAllister's former com.
mitment to the insane hospital sew
eral weeks ago, DR.. 7. J. Mitchell, SUI
perintendent of the institution states
that he did not at that time say that
McAllster was sane, and he has never
expressed an opinion on the subject
His refusal to accept .McAllister was
based on the ground that the commit
ment process was not regular an(
he had no authority to take him into
custody, Notwithstanding the fact tina
the prisoner was surrendered by the
sheriff of Madison county.
