Grain Opinions.

Bartlett Frazier Co.: We look upon
the advance in wheat as only a natural
reaction and think in the absence of
cash demand and continued favorable
crop reports from India, Australia and
the Argentine that the market will not
hold the rally. Unless the demand for
corn improves we doubt whether the
advance will hold
Clement, Curtis & Co.: We believe
in selling wheat on all advances until
supplies begin to work off. Prefer sell
ing side Of corn for the time being.
SheaFson, Hammill & Co.: Until the
demand for wheat improves the best We
can see is scalping rallies on oversold
condition.
Finley Barren s, Co.: Until there is
a decided revival in both domestic and
foreign demand. nothing more than
natural and technical reactions are to
be anticipated in wheat. We believe
corn prices. are now dragging pretty
close to bottom and look for no perma-
nent break from present level.
Logan & Bryan: The bearish stu
alton in wheat which has existed for
some time has not materially changed
and If the price has a little further
temporary rally we advise taking the
selling side again. A few reports come
from this state and from Indiana about
corn not having filed and some of it
yet green, but the great bulk of the big
crop of the year has very little danger
Of any damage, but this is likely to
turn the trade to selling side on any
temporary swell.

catfish" UP AGAIN
Carlson, the Old Offender, Rounded Up
Again by the Police on the
Drunk Charge.

Catfish" Carlson, the same Cat
fish," was brought before Police Magis-
trate Wade again this morning on the
same old charge of having gotten out
side Of too much 10y water" This is
the 'steenth time that Carlson has been
up on the same charge and each time
he has promised that ut will never
happen again" Judge Wade confessed
this morning that Catfish had him up
a stump, as he has been sentenced so
often it has gotten to be almost as nee
essary to him as food A cell has no
terrors for Catfish-in fact, he seems to
rather like it. especially when he is
sent to the county Jail, where the cells
are large.
Catfish came up in the police net last
night with eight or ten other drunks,
all of whom appeared before Judge
Wade this morning and all but one of
whom are now confined in the city bas-
tile, being unable to pay their fines.
One only Of the entire bunch had any
money.

CASS LAKE RAISES
VOICE in PROTEST
5LooDsHED AGAIN PREDICTED If
GOVERNMENT SALOON ORDER
is NOT coUNTERMANDED.

Bemidji, Mimi, Sept 29.-Cass Lake
newspapers have sounded the alarm
and The Times issues a call to arms in
the following languages:
Ever since the appearance among
us of the special agents OF the United
States Indian department, our people,
anxious TO be law. abiding, have stood
almost awe stricken in contemplating
the atrocious acts of agents and most
of us have been 'cowed' with fear when
the name of the United States has been
mentioned in connection with the acts
Of few marauders who have assumed
control without any warrant of law.
That period of inactivity and fear
has passed and our citizens have at
last been aroused from the lethargic
condition prevailing for many, months
and are now ready and willing to fight
for their lives and their liberty as they
did when King George imposed unbear-
able conditions upon them.
'Our people are now ready for the
contest; If it becomes necessary to bear
arms to protect ourselves and our lib
critics, every citizen will embrace the
privilege which the constitutions of the
United States and the state vouchsafe
us.
I'VE are tired of being overridden by
gang OF cowboy toughs at the direc-
ton OF the subdepartment OF the inter-
Tor; We have rights and we know what
they are and will maintain them even
IL we have to fight for them"
Justice Ives, in his call upon the gov
ernor for aid, tells OF the recent raids
made by the Indian agents and states
plainly that unless the governor inter-
feres bloodshed must result In northern
Minnesota. He pleads with the gov
ernor to put the question up to the at
torney general Of the United States as
to whether the state or the department
of the interior Is in control OF northern
Minnesota.
So serious has become the situation
at Cass Lake that Special Inspector
Gentilly of Ashland, Wis, is there in.
vestigating the recent trouble with
Agents Sero and Davis, arrested ON
charges of assault brought by A. A.
Oliver of Walker, after his grip had
been searched for contraband liquor.
Mr.. GENTLY comes under orders from
William E. Johnson, chief special agent
of the Indian department., with head
quarters at Denver.
Mr.. GENTLY will personally inspect
conditions in all of the affected north-
ern towns and make a report in person
to Mr.. Johnson.
The present crisis is brought about
by the governmental mandate prohibit
ing the sale of liquor, under an old
treaty in certain places of the restrict
ed territory.

Michael Gleason of Ulen, who was
some time ago brought before the in-
sanity board but upon whom judg-
ment was not passed it being con-
sidered wise to keep the man in con-
finement for while and find out what
effect a rest would have upon him.
was again brought before the board
yesterday afternoon and declared sane.
Gleason was afflicted in a peculiar
manner. When first taken into custody
he appeared all right when alone, but
when in the presence of anyone al
ways acted in peculiar manner. He
hated company and was silent at all
times. However, after being cared
for for a few days his condition i'm
proved and his popularity was prob
ably due to some nervous affection.

PERFUME IS CAUSE
OF DIVORCE CASE
MoGuRDlTcH ALBANIAN SAYS
OIL OF ROSES WAS PARTLY
RESPONSIBLE FOR
DIFFICULTIES.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Sept. 29.-The
mystic power of bottle of oil of rose
purchased in shop in Cairo, Egypt,
is named as one Of the chief causes Of
his domestic troubles by Magurditch
Alexanian, who today filed suit for di-
vorce against Elizabeth May Alex
anian, He accuses the woman of Ge-
sorting him six times. once in Mar
settles. France, and FIVE times in Am
erica.
The Alexanians were married in De-
troit, Mich, and went to Egypt on
their wedding trip. There the bride
groom purchased bottle of perfume
said to be the most rare in all Egypt.
His wife had this bottle with her
always and Alexanian says that
when they reached Marseilles she de-
serted him Later she returned to
him.
The complaint says that in the last
letter she ever wrote to him she said
she was in Webster City. Ia. that
she was inhaling the fragrance from
the wonderful bottle which always
caused her to think of the one she
loved best. The same letter urges her
husband to get the divorce. The letter
is an exhibit in the suit.
Alexanian says his wife deserted him
in Marshalltown, Ia; South Bend, Ind,
Charleston and Champaign. ILL., and in
New York city. She preceded each
desertion, he says, by haling him be-
fore Justice of the peace and having
him arrested on charge of assault
and battery each time withdrawing the
case when he paid her money or re-
fused to pay her.
The complaint was served on the
wife in Webster City. and an affidavit
of no answer has been filed. The trial.
is set for Oct 6.

Woes Of ! Bic LittIe Man.

st. Louis Times: There is some
thing deeply pathetic in the story of
the collapse OF Thomas E. Watson of
Georgia, which occurred recently.
Before an audience composed OF
those whom the little fighter might
easily have mistaken for his friends,
ne was jeered brutally to the end that
he tainted before his audience of 5000.
There is moral in Mr.. Watson's
entire career. No one who knows him
or his record viii hint that he is not
q good and earnest man. Those who
have made themselves familiar with
his writings are assured that he is a
scholar and man of distinctive liter
AIRY talent.
His state and his country might
have been proud of him. bur- instead.
he occupies the position of a failure,
and nothing that he has done in all
his life has been rewarded by that
popular affection which would have
been doubly dear to man of Mr..
Watson's sensibilities.
His trouble has been that he could
not submit to that CALLING harness by
which the whole world is made to
move. He could not consent to any
sort OF compromise, even to bring
about genuine good. His hand has
been against the hands of all those
who could not work for progress in an
impassioned fashion. He has been an
outsider" in politics, despite the fact
that the greatest achievements have
nearly always been credited to those
who knew how to work in lire with
others.
His whole history is that of big
little man, essaying tasks too dificllr
for him. There is no shame in his
record, but there must be pity and re-
greet in its recording.

MARKET COMMENT OF THE DAY

Argentine and India this week. Wealth
er and crop prospects in that country
continue favorable. Our market may
open little higher on the cables. but
unless we get q much better demand
we do not believe. any advance will
hold, especially with export limits so
far ont of line
Corn: Weather throughout the corn
belt simply perfect Country offer
ings are moderate, but cash demand
yesterday was very disappointing and
unless it improves materially we think
prices win go lower, although the mar
ket may have rallies from time to time
on shorts covering.
Oats: There is no feature to the
oats market. The market will be gov
erned by the action Of corn. We are
inclined to look for freer movement
from the country in the near future.
and with cash demand so slow think
prices will drag.-B. F. Co.

was no change in sentiment, except
that a few of the local professionals

the general change went there was
none, and the bulge was not expected
