through the lack of amy competent
method Of putting buyer and sell
er in touch with each other.
What happens when an owner
lists his real estate Tor sale under
the present system? The land is
entered on the brokers books-oh,
yes; and if any man providentially
happens along who wants to buy a
piece Of real estate, he is handed
a job list of bargains. Frequently
the broker has not seen the prop-
erty. AL ne knows about it is
what the owner has told him. lie
is ignorant Of its appearance and
surroundings of its state OF repair
and actual value. In word he
knows nothing at all which a pur-
chaser needs to know. The pros
pective customer looks at two or
three of the bargains, no one OF
which comes within a mile of what
he wants and all of which are pric-
eel far above their value. Then he
gives up the fruitless quest in dis
gust and goes home.
1t is the system that is wrong.
Perhaps the broker does as we'll
as can be expected under adverse
conditions. OF a thousand items
on his salebooks, nearly all are
listed with half dozen other firms.
If they are listed Oh an average
with four agents, his chances are
slim of earning commissions on
one out of dozen. The owner is
only too eager to sell directly to a
purchaser and very likely he has
given the broker a fancy price, ex-
pecting to find a buyer himself at
a much lower figure. A broker
may believe he has customer at
good price, but he will sieze the
opportunity to sell at lower price

The rich proprietor generally
knows how to go about marketing
his property, but a man who has
only one or two small holdings to
dispose of is apt to go wrong. The
value Of real estate depends large
ly on its being convertible INTO
cash. It often seems unsalabla be-
cause the owner does not know
how to sell it. Too much good ad-
vice cannot well be given on this
subject.
The average owners idea Of how
to sell his real estate is summed up
III listing it for sale with as many
brokers rs possible. That is where
he makes his mistake. the extent
Of which he may better under
stand if he will let us first point
out what the duties Of his broker
should be and then show him Why
no broker can discharge those
duties under the prevailing meth
od of employment.
A broker received his pay from
the real estate owner whose prop
erty he sells and he should repre-
sent his employer as faithfully as
lawyer represents his client. The
first business of the broker is to
examine the property and locelity
estimate the value of the property
from personal inspection of the
premises and tell the owner wheth-
er his asking price is too high or
too low, After the price has been
made right, the broker must make
every effort to sell the property as
soon as possible for the most mon
ey end on the best terms obtain
able. In order to find bidders, he
should freely advertise the proper
ty for sale through tie best adver-
tising mediums and in the most
effective way, and should by ev-

ter county and the Glen dive pro-
position is certain. The proper
time for division is not at hand
and if it were possible to post
pone the question at least for
two years, the country would no
doubt by that time, be better
able to take care Of itself, but as
the matter now stands it is up to
us either to go after a county our

get their wants, which will be a
great knock against the people

this time but now rumor reach
es us that both of these gentle
men are in favor of division, al
though they are not publicly
working for it themselves. If
the people of the Baker and Is
mey territories are in the fight
to stay, about the only thing for
the people Of Ekalaka and the
country south Of us to do is to
follow the crowd and get what
will do US the most good. There
seems to be no doubt that the
division propositions will all
carry and we believe that if it is
not possible for us to get a coun-
ty Of our own. to ask for coun-
ty in connection with the Baker
proposition.

pointed to canvas among the

question. Until their report is
handed in, no definite steps can
be taken.

The EkaIaka Eagle:

Messrs J. P. Hedges, June G.
Olsen and L. j. Martin, the COM
mittee appointed from Ekalaka
Commercial Club to confer with
the Baker club in regards to the
county division question returned
home Friday. At Baker they met
with committees from the Baker
and Ismay clubs and discussed
the matter thoroughly on Friday
morning. During the meeting
another committee was appoint
ed from all three of the clubs to
journey to Glendive and meet
with business men of that town
and talk over the division quest
ion with a view of finding out
their opinion.
From all present indie ations
seems that the Wibaux PROPOSE

sad blow to Custer county, es-
pecially the Ismay Baker terri

carry, but that a strong fight

cry means bring it to the notice of
as many as posi- BILE of the people
who are in the market for real es-
tate of that gen e1al character.
Such is a partial summary of the
duties of the conscientious and Of
ficient broker.
Under prevailing con ditions OF
employment he can do none o.
these things. The property being
listed with a number of brokers
and the owner retaining the privil-
ege Of selling it on his own account
the broker cannot afford the time
and expense Of visiting the prop
erty, nor can he venture To adver-
tise it by street and number, know
ing we'll that If he does SO an IN
tending purchaser may go direct
ly to the owner or to some other
broker. Besides, his chance Of
making a commission under those
circumstances are too small to
warrant the expense OF advertis-
ing. When he does find a Gust
omer he cannot hold out for the
highest price and best terms.
Should he do so, the customer is
apt to 60 to another broker or to
the owner directly. The first brok-
er, therefore, is often constrained
to sacrifice the interest Of the own
er in order to close the bargain be-
fore somebody else, taking it from
him, leaves him no profit for his
pains. Under this system the use
! fulness of brokers is reduced to the
vanishing point through the short
sightedness of owners. most of
whom are careless of their own
veal as to seek out agents who
will do business in this wasteful
and pernicious fashion. Thus real
estate often becomes drug on the
market and its value is impaired

This is an unusual season. Cold
weather. a kind of cold snap that
comes at this season of the year only
about once or twice in a decade, has
thrown the wholesale men out of lSiltcr,
so to speak.
The wholesale whiskey men found
the unusual season favorable for their
business, and their shipments both by
freight cars and by express cars re-
CURED to fill the mail orders, has been
very large.
Tho wholesale grocers found a slight
falling off In business but the orders
that have come In by mail and by the
hands OF their army of travellers have
kept them fairly busy.
Tho wholesale hardware dealers say
they have never had much better trade
The demand for building material and
all kinds of hardware that enters into
house and home building is very pro-
nounced, and 1t keeps the men who
do this class of business very busy.
The implement and farm machinery
dealers say they have never known the
season for activity to be so prolonged.
They are now filling orders that In
the usual run of trade, as 1t appeared
IN many years past were called for
much earlier in the year.
The shoe men and the dry goods men
are kinder resting on their oars for
the time being. having filled all of
their spring orders, and are now con-
tenting themselves with booking big
orders for the fall trade.
Tho wholesale drug merchants find
business more than usually good for
the season, The dealers in speclalties
OF the drug kind arc doing business
every day in the week. Altogether,
the Jobbing trade of Richmond is moro
than active considering the advanced
stage of tho season.
