POLICE DECIDE TO
LET YOUTH Go
FEEBLE MINDED YOUTH or VAL.
LEY CITY HAS BEEN TURNED

AUTHORITIES = CANNOT HOLD
rim LONGER.

Hermann Cook, the feebla-minded
youth OF Valley City who came 70

Gus and claim his bride at the Same
time. was turned loose by the police
authorities today. Chief Bowers was
notified by the Valley city police de.
par.ment last Saturday to hold Her
mann until some member of the Cook
family could come here in person TO
take him home No one has put in
an appearance in that time, and tho
police department does not feel that n
can take care of the lac any longer.
Advice received from the Valley Cit-
police authorities today indicated that
they were at loss as to what should
be done with the lad, as his parents
had given no further word regarding
the disposition OF him. AT Valley city
they can no better afford to care for
the boy than here, and so he was
turned loose this morning
1t is thought he may be able to
procure work of the sort he can do
which will maintain him, provided
someone takes sufficient interest in
him to see that he does not spend all
his money foolishly and waste it on
girls who care nothing for his atten-
tons Hermann is still in quest of his
lady love, but where to find her he is
not certain. Her name is "Lizzi" as
spelled on the epistle he directed to
her and which was found on his person
when searched at the police station
when he arrived in the city last week.
AS he left the station today, Hermann
said he was going to find Lizzie
The plan to adjudge him insane has
been deferred for the present, though
it was the intention of the local au-

future. A preliminary investigation of
the board was held Monday afternoon.
He will be watched and perhaps may
be brought before the insanity board
at a later date.

MARKET COMMENT OF THE DAY


Chicago, Aug. 31.--The wheat mar
ket opened fractionally lower and ruled
dull and heavy during the early part
OF the session, firming up around noon.
There was some further liquidation In
September wheat with elevator inter-
ests changing with Az cents. There
was expert business being done at
Baltimore, but nothing was absolutely
confirmed. The market acts as If
liquidation were about over, and we
are inclined to think that If prices
steady that Europe will be in the
market again as a buyer, as limits are
not far out of line. We continue to
feel friendly to the long side of the
market.

SOMETHING is WRONG

Duluth Herald: The general super
intendent of the Anti Saloon. league
stated in his recent annual report that
100000 of the people of the United
States are living in prohibition terri
tory. With~the exception of less than
two and half millions, practically all
the dry" territory has been gained
during the past ten years.
During the period. according to the
secretary of the United States Brew
ers association, the consumption of al
coholic beverages in this country has
Increased about Is per cent faster
than the total population.
The more dry territory. apparent
", the more liquor there is made and
sold.
Taking the estimates of both sides
at their face value, there is a dis
crepancy here that should compel
study.
Hugh F. Fox, secretary of the brew
ers' organization, says that both the
beer sales and the census returns are
exceeding the estimates. The prelim-
mary estimate of the total population
was 90000,000. an increase of 1874 per
cent. From present indications 1t now
seems possible that the total may
prove to be $4,000, 600, an increase of
226 per cent. AS to these figures. the
census viii show. AS to other figures
presented by Mr.. Fox, he is probably
in better position to speak accurately.
He says that the beer sales for the
fiscal year ending June so, 1910, were
5s.4S5.114 barrels OF tklrty-cne gal
ions each, as compared with 39,330,s4S
In 1900 The beer consumption has,
therefore, increased 51.2 per cent since
1900. while the population has in
creased only 22.6 per cent.
Increases in beer consumption are
not so alarming as Increases In the
consumption Of the more ardent bev-
erages. While the value OF beer as q
food may be open to debate. clearly

.SNEERS AT TREATY
OF JAPS and KOREA

st. Petersburg, Aug. 31.-The text of
the treaty by which the Korean king
dom was annexed to the empire of
Japan was published here today and
in the case of the Novoe Vremya was
accompanied by a bitter, sarcastic edi-
torial in which Korea is Iikened to an
oyster, which, about to be swallowed,
treats with the gastronomer who al
ready has squeezed the lemon juice
upon 1t.
The document, the paper says. con-
stitutes IAN historical example of
shameless hypocrisy"
The judicial Importance of the treaty
Is null says the Novoe Vremya. The
emperors rescript is less wordy. but at
gross variance with the publicity here
tofore given to Korean affairs, earlier
reports having pictured Korea as -four
fishing under Japanese rule.
Will Make No Protest.
The sole document OF Importance in
the official exchanges is the declaration
whereby the consular courts are abol-
ished and the customs and the coasting
trade rights made subject to abolition
after ten years. The Novoe Vremya
add that Russian interests in the Her
init kingdom are insignificant and for
that reason Russian diplomacy will not
raise It's voice in protest. The United
States and Great Britain have been
hard nit. In the opinion of the editor,
who says, however, that as war is the
sole means Of aunulling an accom-
plished tact the situation will be 49,
cepted, for assurediy nobody would go
