record year for the expectation Of food
sfuiIs, says New England Grocer.
In this term sfoodstunss are in

cattle. fruits, rice and vegetables. In
an these articles while prices are
higher than ia earlier years, the guam
tiiy and in most cases the value Of the
exports are less in 1910 than in certain
earlier years, and In many cases less
than half that Of a like period in for
MGR years.
This estimate Of the exports Of the
fiscal year 1910 is based upon the fg-
ures 81 the bureau Of statistics Of the
department Of commerce and labor for
the nine months ending with March.

against 742 million pounds ia 1905, val
ued at 90 million dollars.
The average value per pound Of
bacon exported in the fiscal year 1910
for which figures are available, is
about ~ cents per pound, against an
annual average per pound Of II cents
IN 1897, and Of lard in 1910, ~ cents
per pound, against 81 cent per pound
in 1897.
The quantity Of wheat exported in
the fiscal year 1910 win aggregate but
about 80 million bushels, against 157
million in 1892, the high record year.
The average export value for 1910 is
about s1-O3 per bushel, against 70 cents
in 1902. and So cents in 1895. The
corn exports for the fiscal year 1910
viii, judging from the figures thus far
received, aggregate about 80 million
bushels, against 200 million bushels in
1900, the export price in 1910 being
about 20 cents per bushel. against an

about onc-fhird Of the number exported
in 1905. the quantity Of fresh beef but
about one-fourfh that Of 1901. and one

imafeiy 20 million dollars. against 50
million in 1901; the value Of bread

against ss4 million in Is9s: the value
Of meat and dairy products about 40
million dollars against 211 million in
1906.
In the meantime the value Of manu-
features exported has increased and
VIII be, in 1910, approximately $50
million dollars, again 453 million in
1902. 25s million ia 1896, and 17e mill
ion in 1880. thus bringing the value Of
all exports for 1910 to within about 80
million dollars Of the high record Of
1907 and 1908.

BANK R0BBER IS
SAFE IN THE JAIL
He is the Only One Of Seven Who
Has Been Caught Since the
Underwood lift"

Harry G.. Thomas, alias Oscar
Peterson was arrested Tuesday up
on release from the penitentiary
for having been implicated in the
burglary of the Underwood banks
during the year 1906, and placed
in the county Jail at Bismarck
Sheriff Beck brought the prisoner
up Thursday morning and he is
now in Jail here.
The prosecuting officers are of
the opinion that they have secured
enough evidence to convict the
defendant. and he will be held in
the county Jail here awaiting fur
ther developments.
1t has been learned that the de-
fendant in company with six other
yeggmen operated upon the Secur-
ity State Bank and the First State
Bank of Underwood. securing from
those banks about ten thousand
dollars in money. and that no part
OF the money was ever recovered.
Some of those implicated are now
in various penitentiaries, and some
are still at large. The officers have
also learned that four of the gang
implicated in the burglary were al
SO implicated in burglarizing the
store of Haas & Sons of Turtle
Lake. taking from the store a big
quantity Of clothing which was
sold to one of the blind piggers of
Underwood shortly before the bur.
gIarly.

ity. That settled the matter SC
far as republicans are concerned
however noisily democrats like Ed
itor Bloom may ''holler their heads
off"
In short, we may as we'll recog.
nize the fact first as last that the
primary election is not a contest
between parties-nothing Of the
kind. So far as factional disputes
and differences of opinion are con-
cerned. the primary election af-
fords an opportunity for the mass
of voters in the party to say which
faction is right and which is
wrong. If the voters fail or ne
glect to render judgment it is their
own fault. and there is nothing for
it but to wait another primary
election. The republican party
cannot be reformed by electing
democrats to Office, nor would the
general interests of the country be
benefited by their election. The
democratic party stands in quite
as great need of reformation as
does the republican party. What
is most needed is the education of
the whole people in the matter of
civic duties; in arousing in the
electorate genuine interest and
personal concern in the affairs of
government.
But it should be steadily borne
in mind that the issues involved in
a primary election are quite dis
tinct from those involved in a
general election. In the first in
stance the differences, if any, are
factional; in the second instance
they are fundamental, representing
widely diverging ideas as to poll
cies. aims, methods-the entire
scope of political economy.

Rain InterfereS With
the Big Celebration
Would Have Been Great Success But for the
DampneS- Senator McCumber Gave Splen-
did Talk to Large Crowd

The celebration at Energy. the
new town near Washburn was we'll
attended Saturday but the rain in
the afternoon scattered the crowd
before the program was scarcely
started. Farmers in the adjoining
country were there with their fam
lilies, and about thirty auto loads
of people from the surrounding
towns were in attendance until the
showers. The young folks who
had danced all the night before in
an open pavilion stayed during
the day in hopes another dance
would be given that evening.
Senator McCumber was the on
ly speaker present whom the peo-
pie heard. Two speakers from the
Agricultural College were present
but as stated above the program
was interrupted. A free lunch was
served to all but the barbecue must
have taken place earlier in the day
or week as there was no sign of
one when the spectators arrived.
The forty gallons of oysters were
there but were not served. The
celebration had promises Of being
a big one, the citizens of Energy
have a lot of faith in the future of
their town and had worked hard
to have the day a success.

Washburn School Notes

The first month of the schoo
term is nearing its close. and fol
the past two days the pupils have
been busy at their monthly exam.
nations. Report cards showing
attendance, department and class
standing will be sent to parents OF
guardians as t-arIy as possible next
week and at the close of each sub
sequent school month. Parents
are urgently requested to examine
these reports thoroughly and in
the event of an unsatisfactory re-
port to take all measures in their
power to assist the pupil to make
subsequent reports more satisfac-
tory,
Commercial work is being Of
fered in the high school. including
half year courses in bookkeeping,
commercial law, commercial .arith-
metic, penmanship and spelling,
civics and the rudiments of type
writing. The commercial classes
are making excellent progress at
present. and it is hoped that any
others who wish to pursue this or
other work will enter as soon as
possible, in order not to retard the
work of the classes.
A matter on which there seems
to be need Of reminding pupils
and patrons is that of attending
school regularly and being OH time
every day The writer believes
that cooperation of parents and
teachers towards this end will
prove of great benefit to the school
as whole and to pupils individu-
ally. No habit can be more harm
full to boys and girls than that of
being a few minutes tardy to school
or of missing a day now and then,
without good and sufficient rea-
son. As means towards attain
ing the desired results in this
matter, pupils are required to bring
written excuses from parents or
guardians in the event of absence
or tardiness. Parents are urgently
requested to do all in their power
to obviate the necessity of these
excuses by seeing to it that pupils
attend regularly and get to school
at>the proper time every day.

WORK OF BOARD
NOW COMPLETED
No Great Changes in the Count From
the Report Given Out By the
County Auditors

The state canvassing board has
completed the work of counting
and of verifying the votes cast
for state officers on the republican
and democratic tickets and the nom
partisan judiciary ticket. There
are no changes in the figures from
those that have been published in
the press of the state except that
W. L. Richards, democratic candi-
date for lieutenant governor, will
secure.a place on the fall ballot, as
he received the necessary 30 per
cent, having 9,O56 votes.
1t has been impossible to certify
to the returns in the legislative
districts as there are a number of
counties where there are more than
one district and while the board
has the vote for the entire county
there is no vote given for the dis
tricts. and for this reason they can
not determine whether the necess-
ary 80 per cent has been obtained
by the candidates. County audi
tors where this condition exists
have been notified and requested
to send the desired information at
once. 1t is not expected that the
delay will be for more than few
days and the ballots will be pre-
pared for the printer in plenty of
time.
The RESULTS
The totals that have been pre-
pared by the state board of can
vassers are not materially different
from those printed heretofore, but
as q matter of interest. The tabu-
lated form, with all votes by coun-
ties and candidates. will be pub
lished later.
