TaIkinu Nonsense.

Mayor Davy: Healthy discussion OF
problem is perfectly right, but the
trouble is lot of rot creeps in. The
matter of the refundment OF license
money, in case the licenses are put
out Of business by order of the COM
missioner of the Indian bureau, Or
any one else seems a worry to soma
people. The officials of the city OF
Mporhead hav not been asked to refund
any license money and when they are
asked they undoubtedly will look into
the validity of the claim and IL it
is lawful to refund the money paid for
licenses that is the unused portion
of it, it will be paid. AS far as
am concerned, am maintaining
decidedly quiescent mood regarding
the contemplated acts of the govern
ment officials. II they go to building
bridges for me to cross 1t will be up
to me to find a way to cross them
when / get there-I am not going to
make any special journeys to see II
there are bridges ahead of me now.
That report In the twin city papers
yesterday about us sending delega-
ton to Washington is all rot. No meet
ings have been held of business men
and from what / know of the temper
of the Moorhead business men no meet
ing will be held as there is no ques-
ton before the house upon which we
can act inteliigently. How can we re-
flute thing If we don't know whether
1t exists or not and or no other Off
cial knows whether this city is in
Indian territory or not. It's so long
since saw an Indian that / forget
how one looks None of them lives
here.

CHICAGO Gossip.

Chicago, July 21.-Foreign news came
too strong for the wheat bears to ig-
more yesterday and it was said after
the close that from now on foreign ca
bles and crop news is to be more OF
an important factor in making prices
in this country. The bullish foreign
crop news caught the local crowd short
or without any wheat at the start and
made them buy literally and persist
emily, so that hedging Of possibly over
100000 bushels bought by Chicago and
southwest was without more than tenn
porary effect. The crowd was re-
garded as long at the close. There are
many traders who believe that the
spectators will soon get tired of car
rying the increasing load Of hedged
wheat and that it will eventually out
weigh the effect of sentiment. Some Of
the best operators expressed the opin-
ion that bull market is on and that
the setbacks are to be only temporary,
such as come to any healthy bull mar
ket.-Inter- Ocean.

BroomhaII's Report.

Liverpool, July 21.-The wheat mar
ket at the start was firm and u to

America. Later there was some profit
taking and values declined u to " on

and Indian news and less favorable
reports from Argentine. Russian and
Danubian offerings are light. At mid
day the market was strong and ex-

sessment on Parsonages Light.
The commissioners, as county
board Of equalization adjourned last
night after their labors of revising
the real and personal tax lists
OF the different cities and towns
Of Clay county The members of the
board expressed themselves that the
assessment, this year, was the best
made for a good many years. con-
sequently very few changes had to be
made. The assessors as a whole were
more closely in harmony as to vail
ues.
A new duty devolved itself upon the
board this year and 1t was to put
into effect the new law providing for
the taxation Of chufch parsonages.
The board after hearing parties in
terested decided that each parcel of
property would be assessed according
to its value and on the basis of other
like property. The officials of the
county say that 1t could not be done
otherwise as no special classification
could be made, or partially shown in
favor of one property and against am
other. The new law is practically the
creation of the state tax commission
and at its meeting, to make the final
equalization, the parsonage feature Of
the new assessment will be closely
scrutinized and compared with other

Moorhead is not weeping so very hard

Everyone but the saloon men sees the

looms are doomed, and there is feel
ing that If the federal government will
put them out ir will cause much less
local friction than If they are voted out
by county option or local option. Moor :

would have been few years ago.

Grain Opinions.

Chicago, July 21.-Ware & Leland:
We believe in higher prices for wheat
and corn. Oats are cheap.
J. H. Wrenn & Co.: Best demand for
wheat continues to be speculative.
Short sellers are as scare now as they
were plentiful 90 cents lower.
Shearson, Hammill: If there were
a demand in sight for this wheat when
1t. arrives that aspect of the situation
would be more hopeful. The demand so
far is very poor and the general stu
alton promises rapidly increasing
stocks in the near future with this
prospect in view we do not feel like
advising the purchase Of wheat at
these prices.
Barelett, Frazier & Co.: Should the
tone of foreign markets change on a
lettering of crop prospects abroad
we would likely get a temporary set
back as a result of the winter wheat
marketings. We favor purchases how
ever, on all good reactions. We favor
purchases of corn a speculative senti-
ment leans strongly toward higher
prices and ample buying power would
be forthcoming at the least sign of
danger.
