QUICK WORK IN THE
MATRIMONIAL line

Elgin Times: A young farmer from
near Nett decided that he wanted a
wife and wanted her at once, so he

guage and more persuasive talker,
and enlisted his aid in his worthy
endeavor to secure for himself part
ner through life.
Sunday evening, hungry, weary and
travel stained, the two arrived in FL
gin in quest of the elusive better half
and becoming engaged in conversation
with a couple of Elgin young men,
were advised to try and win the heart
of young lady domestic in one of the
homes in the western part of the city
and laden with a supply of gum and
candy that would gladden. the heart
of any girl, they set out to WOO her.
The spokesman put up such a con-
vincing talk in behalf of his timid
friend that only took about half an
hour to convince the fair maiden that
she was indeed his affinity until death
would them part. So she packed her
trunk, babe goodby to her employ
ers and with her future hubby whom
she had never even heard of two hours
previous to their betrothal, they left
that evening for Mott where the knot
was quietly but securely tied Monday
morning.

HAMLINE j. FRESHMAN
TAKES Her own LIFE

Minneapolis, MIMI, March 3O.-Put-
ting revolver to her right temple,
Miss Ruth Grow, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Frank Grow, of Hector, Mimi,
and freshman at Hamline university,
last night in the retiring room of the
Milwaukee station, shot herself. She
died SIX hours later. After a day
spent in fruitless endeavor by rela-
tives, friends, university officials and
the police, nothing definite is advan-
ced to account for the suicide. DR..
George H. Bridgmen, president of
Hamline university, thinks it may
have been from mental condition
following Overstudy. The girls friends
believe it is a disappointment of ro-
nance, but the only man whose name
appears, Frank w. Sanderson, now
in his third year of divinity work at
Hafline, and whose name was inscrib-
ed in the little religious compendium
found in the dead girls effects, says
he barely knew her, met her only
few times and loaned her the book to
satisfy some religious inquiries. As
nearly as can be determined, Miss
Grow arrived at the Milwaukee station
early yesterday. Florence Alien,
Hector friend, also at Hamline, said
today that she returned from Hector
to the university Sunday night, and
begged Miss Grow to come with her,
but the dead girl refused. She also
says that Miss Grow recently told her
sister of Hamline student with
whom she had fallen in love- Miss AL
len does not know the name. Appar
emily the dead girl. waited around the
station all day in the hope of meeting
some one, either casually or by ap-
point. The train from Hamline is due
about 5:45 p. m. 1t was just after this
train that she shot herself

ATTEMPTS SUICIDE
JUMPING IN A WELL

Oriska, N. D., March 3O.-Growing
Respondent because she thought the
world had turned against her, Marie
Schmidt, employed at the Schilling
hotel this city, attempted suicide this
afternoon by jumping feet foremost
into we'll at the rear of the hotel.
She was later rescued but is in SER
ious condition.
The girls disappearance was learn
ed by a note which she had left in
the hotel addressed to God and every
body" and stating that she was going
to take her life as no one in the world
cared for her. The finding of the
scrawl started the search and it was
learned that she had leaped into the
we'll which is only 10 inches around
and walled with thing which was
very icy.
While those who made the discOv-
cry we're wondering how to rescue the
unfortunate girl a man named Olson
volunteer to let them tie rope
around his body and let him down
in the we'll, head foremost. He sue.
ceeded in getting the girl but when
the two were about in the middle of
the well in ascending, in some unac.
manner the rescuer was
forced to let go of his burden and
the girl fell back into the water.
Olson was let down again and sue.
ceeded in bringing the unconscious
girl to the top.
The rescuer was bleeding badly at
the nose and mouth and blood was
oozing out of the pores in his face
but at late hour tonight he was
getting along nicely.
Marie Schmidt came to Orfska from
southern Minnesota and had no rela.
tives in these parts. Very little is
known of her life.

F. r. Wood of Leeds Warns
Farmers of the Dangers Which
Lie in Canadian Reciprocity

down-to destroy our seven cent
premium - as, according to Senator
Beveridge in the Saturday Evening
Post, I'VE are the greatest exporter
of wheat in the world" and there are
still millions of acres of undeveloped
wheat land in our own country;
neither does the producer of the
United States ask any undue favors;
he simply wants square deal and
the same protection as is afforded
other industries. If the wheat pro-
Queer is going to asked to contrib
ute his hard earned dollars to the
cause of lower cost of living, so that
each individual may be benefited AZ
cents per year-a very small part of
the amount squandered or spent fool
ishly by these same individuals-he
wants some benefits in return; or, at
least wants the other industries to
bear their share of the burden.
If free wheat is to reduce the cost
of living It means cheaper wheat, it
means less profit in wheat farming,
lower prices on wheat lands, and, ul-
timately, that we will not be able to
compete, without higher priced lands
and better paid labor, with the Can.
adian farmer; and that millions of
dollars will be sent across the Cana
dian border for products that we can
and should raise at home.
The Canadian northwest is just be-
ginning to develop and if they want
our market for their products we
are entitled to their market for our
products. AS the agreement now
stands, they are absolutely protect.
ing England by a prohibitive tariff on
our manufactured goods and virtual
ly tell us that they would very much
like to sell us their wheat, but that
they could not, under the circum-
stances, accept our manufactured
goods in exchange therefore, that
this trade belongs to England and al
ways will. If reciprocity will not in
jure the producer, it will not reduce
the cost of living, and there you are.
Reciprocity that reciprocates would
be all right but this one-sided affair
is all wrong and will not only injure
but will, in some cases, absolutely
ruin some of our producers, particu-
larly among the wheat raisers.
We are told that this ia the zen.

things will follow. The time to get
is, in my opinion, when
We have some to offer in return. If
we allow Canada to get the best Of
them next time, there will probably
be no next time, and if there is, we
will have nothing to offer in ex-
change for that which we ask.

The following sensible article
against Canadian reciprocity is from
the pen of F. E. Woods of Leeds.
I have long been wondering why
some one does not rightly name the
proposed trade agreement between
Canada and the United States-it is
not reciprocity" which is defined as
the admission mutually of certain
goods, supposed to be practically
equivalent to each other, duty free or
at equal duties on Importation 1t
is simply free trade in raw materials
allowing the Canadian farmer to flood
the United States with the product
CT it's cheaper land, to the detriment
CT the producer of this country, and
with no benefits to him in the way
of cheaper goods which he must buy.
Does Senator Beverage and the 9TH
er advocates Of the proposed measure
including President Taft, expect the
producer to believe they are honest
in their stand on the question when
they agree to a provision putting un-
finished lumber on the free list, and
forcing US to buy finished lumber of
the lumber trust or pay duty on the
finished article? Perhaps they ex-
pect US to believe that the Canadian
manufacturer does not want to sell
to us. This is only one illustration.
Have they figured how much diff
ference in the awful thigh cost of
living" the admission of wheat from
Canada free of duty is going to make
to the average individual per year?
Let US see. The yearly consumption
of wheat per capita is about six
bushels, the most that can be expect
ed is the destruction of the premium
of about seven cents per bushel over
the export price of wheat that the
producer has been able to get for his
product for the past few years, which
would mean a saving of seven cents
per bushel on six bushels of wheat,
or the magnificent sum of forty-two
cents per year for each individual,
which would nearly buy two of the
cigars that our learned lawmakers
smoke. This reduction of seven cents
per bushel means loss of 1886 per
year, or three per cent on his invest
ment, to the farmer raising 800 acres
of wheat on land worth $40 per acre
and yielding fifteen bushels per acre
and that out of the net profits on an
Investment that now yields a lower
rate of interest than almost any other
than can be named.
These same men expect. suppose,
to be believed when they make the
statement that reciprocity will not in
jure the producer and in the same art
icle or speech say that reciprocity"
is necessary in order to reduce the
high cost of living. How, in the
name of common sense, are they CO.
ing to reduce the cost of living AZ
cents per capita per year in the cost
of wheat-without injuring the pro-
Queer, when it is clear that this same
producer gets no benefits as to price
on the things that he necessarily
must buy? 1t means that he must
sell his product for less money, and
therefore, buy less of the product of
the consumer thereof. Reciprocity
thereby Injuries both the producer and
the consumer.
We do not need Canadian wheat
except as club to force the price

READY FOR A PROBE

In order to convince the somewhat
skeptical public as to whether or not
the company has been making a fair
dividend on the investment, officers
of the Richmond Home Telephone
company have announced they will
permit an investigation of their books
by an expert or committee of experts,
providing the stockholders determine
to increase the rates on business and
residence phones three dollars year.
The proposed increase will be consid-
cred by the stockholders on JAN
uary 25.
Of1icials of the telephone company
will agree to an investigation of their
books by experts appointed either by
the city. or commercial organiza-
tons. They claim that under the pres.
ent rates it is impossible to allow any
thing from the annual receipts for de-
probation. This, they say, is import
ant with a telephone company. claim.

er unserviceable or SO antiquated that
it has to replaced every ten years.
They further believe they can show
by such an investigation the necessity
for an increase in rates from other
standpoints.

the bonds of the financial institutions
which have desires to become deposit
tories for the public funds. In all
cases the bonds were found to be cor
rect.
Nearly every institution gave per-
sonal bond and in these cases the
bond called for was at least sixty per
cent of the total amount which the
bank or trust company is entitled to.
The First National bank OF Cambridge
City filed seven gravel road bonds for
surety and in this instance but fifty
per cent of the total amount to which
the institution was entitled was de-
manded for bond. The reason is that
the finance boards considered gravel
road bonds just a littlee bit better
surety than personal bonds, though
there was no hesitancy in accepting
any of the personal bonds of the insti.
