Constant Publicity Necessary to Keep
Wheels Of Industry OoinS.


Big advertisers who ought to know
better have sometimes tried to carry
business along on the momentum OF
their former efforts at publicity, argu-
ing that they have established posi-

necessary.
"Thy experience never works, how
ever" says writer in Fame. "You
might as well try to live on the dinners
you have eated or on the nights lodg-

The Hood River growers have found
that the Clark's Seeding strawberry
grows to perfection in that locality,
and 1t is grown almost exclusively.
The plants are set in rows thirty inches
apart and standing fifteen inches apart
in the row. This gives 1880 plants to
the acre. All runners are kept cut off
as fast rs they form and by this means
the original plant throws new buds to
form number of crowns in cluster
around itself and each Of these crowns
puts out fruit stems. By this method,
instead of having wide row set with
plants, as II the runners were allowed
to grow, the cluster of fruit-bearing
crowns occupy small place. This
method Of growing the plants makes it
easier to cultivate the ground than
when grown In the matted row. One
grower having plants grown in this
way produced an average of 200 twenty
four-quart crates of Strawberries to the
acre for seven years. Other growers
claim that the berries grown In this
way are larger and finer than when
grown In the matted row and we be-
lieve this is true.-Denver Field and

INTO the NEW DEPOT
The Milwaukee Company Moved Into
New Depot and Resumed BUSH
ness ndcr Fine Conditions.

When the Milwaukee, passenger
station vas opened for business Tues
day it was under much more
pleasant conditions than has been
the case for a great many years, and
the smile OF content1nent on the faces
Agent Shelby and Ticket Agent Snow
Was %perceptibly broadened as they
greeted the friends and patrons of the
road.
The new depot is not wholly COM
pleted as vet, but removal was caused
by reason of the men being ready to
move the old depot from it's present
site farther east. where it will be
used for the train dispatcher's Office
and for the use of the conductors and
brakemen. 1t will be remodeled to
some extent and made more COM
Portable for the persons who will use
it.
There is much work to be done
around the grounds of the depot be-
fore it can be called finished. Cement
walks are to be laid to the south and
to the north of the structure. Most
of the interior work is completed.
The new depot is a structure of
which tae citizens can be proud, when
it is taken into consideration the
building that has served the public
for so many years. 1T is 4 little oNer
200 feet long and 80 feet wide at its
widest portion. 1t is placed on a
concrete foundation, and it built of
pressed brick. 1t is covered with a
the possibility of fire from the pass
ing engines. The interior is finished
IN oak and the wa..s and ceilings are
paneled off to add to the appearance
of the interior.
ing room, with the ticket Office COM
ing next and adjoining is the mems
waiting room. OFF of that is the
lunch room, which is considerably en-
larged over the old lunch counter.
There is also room for the placing of
two tables where meals can be serv-
ed. Adjoining are the baggage and
express orices.
The entrance to the depot on the
north side cannot be used for some
time, owing to the grading not being
done nor the cement sidewalks put
in. There is much work to be done
to have the surroundings in readiness
for corn palace week, when an i'm
mense rush of business always takes
place.

GETTING EXHIBIT READY
Dawson County Will be Represented
at the State Fair at Huron With
a Fine Exhibit.
Fine Exhibi.

After the county commissioners
had made an appropriation of $3.50
to collect a county exhibit for the
corn palace, they later decided that
Dawson county ought to be repre-
sented at the state fair at Huron,
consequently the board made an adj
ditional appropriation of $50 for that
purpose. j. r. Allison was placed in
charge of securing the exhibit and
has commenced to secure the mater
ial to make up the display.
1t will be impossible for Mr.. Ali
son to get to all parts of the county
to secure the material, at least the
remote parts, and if any farmer in
those sections has something good
in the way of grains or vegetable pro-
ducts the commissioner will appre-
ciate it very much to have it ship
ped or sent to Mitchell. Parties living
close to Mitchell can telephone or
write Mr.. Allison and he will call for
the products. 1t is necessary that
all the material be gathered in time
for shipment to Huron so that time
can be had to arrange the display.
Dawson county has some splendid
crops this year and a fine showing
can be made at the state fair. Let
everybody contribute what they have
that is good and perhaps we can car
ry off first prize.
A car will be shipped from Mitch
ell over the Omaha road on Saturday
morning, Sept. II, containing the
Dawson county exhibit, that of the
Newburys, the Dakota Improved Seed
Co., and the personal exhibit of Mr.
Twambley of Alexandria.

A WORD FROM woLGY
The General is Entranced Over tho
Bitter Root Valley Country Out
in Montana.

Editor Republican:-It may be OF
some interest to our friends and your
readers to get a word from us. and
this wonderful Bitter Root country.
We are all we'll and enjoying the
most delightful climate we have
ever been in. Since we have been
here we have had the pleasure Of
meeting several old Mitchell friends
who are touring the west. Among
them were MI. and Mrs. G. B. Wilt
and son, G. q. Brady, u register OF
deeds, and now we have M. M. Doyle,
who has been with us for three days
in travelling owe the country with
Lee. To everyone coming here the
fruit and fruit growing is simply a
revelation, something they never
dreamed Of. Apples, the early ones
and half green at that, are being ship
ped to Butte, Helena and other min
ing cities, and selling for $1.00 per
box f. o. b. Cherries are selling at
1925 per crate, blackberries from $o|
to $3.50. These fruit lands are bel
ing bought up rapidly. Lee and ]
have bought another fruit ranch Of
80 acres, on which there are some q
or 8 acres Of heavy bearing fruit
trees, and which are now being har1
vested and the fruit shipped.
To give your readers some idea OF
the value CT some of the land l will
say that for the Z acre bearing or
chard we have been offered $1,000
but we refused the offer, as it is NO
for sale at any price. We intend
plant the full so acres and make
our future home.
We are trying to interest the Bite
Root Valley Irrigation Co. to sen
some Of the products of this count
to the corn palace and believe tn
we shall succeed.
Mrs. Wolgemuth and myself Y
return ina few days and Lee and
wife will come later.
Yours truly, sSs

The structure will cost about $45.-
900 when fully completed, and it will
serve the people we'll.
There has been some agitation on
the part of the citizens to have a
shed built out from the depot to the
first track. to provide a shelter to
passengers coming off the trains in
bad weather, and it is probable that
it will be taken up with the officials.
1t seems to be a very necessary thing
and every effort will doubtless be
made to get the officers to construct

Quinn was found lying on the ground
and found the glass from which he
had drank the poison and there was
quite a strong odor of the carbolic
acid.
The coroner's jury found the evil
dence very conclusive and agreed up
on the following verdict:

cause of the death of Peter A. Quinn,
find that he came to his death by

EXECUTION OF FERRER.

New York Evening Post
OF the deplorable folly and blindness
that were responsible for the execution
Of Ferrer after sham trial. few things
could furnish stronger evidence than
this remark OF the London Spectator:
we fear that by the blunder OF this
trial following the blunders OF the war
in Morocco, Spain has undone Ia a few
months the effect OF years OF progress"
Tho Spectator steadily pursues as its
chief mission the combating OF the
forces and tendencies that make for
Socialism, and its attitude toward any
thing Ike anarchlsm may readily be
imagined. Its severe language on
this occasion Is In the face OF the ut 70
most detestation OF the doctrines with
which Ferrer's name is associated.
What these are, by the way, is brought
out with startling cicarness In a quota
ton from Ferrer himself contained In
the Spectators article. The object
OF the modern schools was described
by him as being ito mako children
reflect upon the lies Of religion. OF
government, Of patriotism. OF Justice
OF politics, and OF miiitarism, and To
prepare their brains for the social
revolution" But II was not on the
general ground Of propagating this
kind Of teaching, pestilent as IL may
be. that Ferrer was shot: he was con
denned TO death as an instigator of
the Barcelona riots. and was not given
n fair trial on that charge. Tho cause
Of the anarchists will not be hurt BY
denial 70 anybody or other
--of the protection which tho ostab-
llshed principles OF civilized Justice
guarantee 10 all men.
