+ elsewhere the dispatches report
that two representatives of a Dutch
syndicate are on the way to North
Dakota to buy a large tract of land
for colonization purposes, The syndf
cate intends to buy the land and allot
it to Dutch farmers giving them a
number, Of years, to pay for it. The
climate Of North Dakota is severe,
even when compared with the eli
mate of Holland, and yet it is safe to
say that the syndicate or the Dutch
farmers have not as much as heard
Of Mississippi or Of this vicinity. The
Western states conduct an energetic
publicity campaign both in the Uni
ted States and abroad, and every in
tending immigrant knows the great
possibilities of the West. The Miss
issippi valley below st. Louis still has
the reputation it enjoyed in the days
of Mark Tapely in the Eden neigh
borhood, and is supposed to furnish
only sudden death and desolation
through the medium of malaria and
yellow fever. 1t is known there that
the climate in the South is much
warmer than in the North or in Eu-
rope, but the climate is supposed to
be of the same kind that prevails in
Central Africa, hot and deadly to the
white man. The boosting" of the
South and its resources in Southern
papers Is all well and good, but they
do not reach the class of people whom
We wish to induce to come and make
their homes among us. The cham

Ne,,s From the Tripod

1.-The continual 'hammering away
editorially and through correspond
ents, on the necessity and Importance
of the farmers Of Mississippi DIVERSE
flying their crops, combined with the
high price of corn and hogs, is bear
ing fruit in this (Oktibbeha) county.
There have been more regis
tered pigs and brood sows shipped
into this county since January / than
there have been in ten years previous
to that time, and nearly every farmer
is increasing his acreage in corn. All
the local dealers have exhausted their
supply of seed corn at remunerative
price. And the boys corn club and
pig club of this county have also add
ed greatly to the impetus given this
hog and hominy idea by the CONNER

A TRIeuTE TO vARDAmAN.

:
The Senatorial contest was a re-
markable one in several respects It
& developed at an early stage of the
I,ght that it was the field against Var

fcaucusing together, putting up candi-
dates and pulling them down, as the
Interests of the combination would
appear to suggest and making the de-
Efeat of Vardaman the primary consid-
I. Grafton. The State political machine
WAS opposed to him; also, a majority
|of the political leaders who dominat-
led the State In the days of the old
Convention system and the sympathy
of the corporations was openly charg-
with such powerful influences op-

wonder Is that Mr. vardaman should
Ehave been able to hold his followers
together 50 we'll and SO long. 1t is a
Splendid tribute to his ability as a
political leader and to his character

POISONS NEICNBOR
TO AVOID PAYMENT
OF OLD $50 DEBT
Calls Farmer From Field and
Gives Him Deadly
Drink.

Milbank, s. D. July 9,-In order to
wipe out debt of $32, John Van Asche,
farmer living near here, yesterday
poisoned James Reem, q 70-year-old
neighbor. Rcem lived three hours after
drinking the poison, which was mixed
with whisky, and before he died he
rcdc a statement giVins the motive
for the crime and praying that the al
mighty would forgive Van AsChe for
n?urdrring him and save his blockened
soul Public feeling is very strong
against Van Asche, who does not bear
q good rpDutatiOn.
Van Asche, driving past the Recm
farm, called the aged farmer from the
field and offered him q drink Of whisky.
Reem refused at first, but Van ASche
insisted and he finally swallowed a
goodly portion. Reem handed the bot
tie back to Van Asche, saying tho
whisky tasted bitter and asked him to
take a nip, but Van ASChe refused. In
an incredibly short time Reem COM
planned of feeling badly and IT was
then that Van Asche drove off and
left him. Van AsChe also offered a
drink of the deadly poison to Reem's
simple daughter, but she would not
drink. The girl tried her best to OK
plain the situation over the telephone,
but being unable to tell the story CO.
herently. no one took Ter seriously. In
the meantime Mr.. Reem lay grooming
and suffering untold fortunes. He lay
thus for two hours before help ar
rived After making his st2t"ment in
which he explained that Van Asche had
murdered him so as to avoid paying
debt of $32, he lapsed into uncOn-
seriousness and in q short time was
dead.
1t has beer learned that Van Asche
purchased stryChnine at 4 drug store
and a bottle of whisky at p saloon. The
whisky bottle was found empty near
the Reem farm, but stryChnino crystals
had formed from evapOrH ton.
A Coroner's jury, which was Quickly
empanelled, brought in verdict OF
poisoning from stryChnine. Some years
ago Van AsChe fed from this neigh
bOrhOOd after attempting to kill a cOun-
ty official, but when the trouble had
blown over returned.

WOMEN PULL HAIR
OVER A MERE MAN

Aberdeen, S. D, July 9.-Two female
humans, who from their air were evil
IDENTIFY from the provinces, tried to pull
off a miniature Jeffries- johnson match
on the streets of Aberdeen. Hair and
rouge and chunks of raiment for a few
moments obscured the dust and smoke
and shriekS of the embattled AmazOns
smOthered even the bowling of hawk
ers and toy cannon. One was little, the
other JChnsOnesque in size. Who won
will perhaps never be known. Who
got in the last lick will also remain a
mystery, but both chimed in with thu
last word neither Of which was pretty
or exactly printable.
The battle was not for base coin or
perishable fame or for love of the bar
barous game of fighting. The cassus
belli was the attentions of a rather
sorry looking specimen of another sex.
When the fray was at it's height he
took advantage of Opportunity and
faded away.
