IMPROVEMENT
ON MAINLAND

The following items are culled from
Dun's Review New York; for Febru-
airy IL:
Signs of improvement continue to
multiply. The marked betterment in
the condition of the money and in
vestment markets has served to in
spire greater confidence in the in
dustries and trades, and especially in
the iron and steel industry, in which
there are unmistakable proofs Of ex-
banding interest and activity, particu-
larly in finished products.
The decline in wheat and cotton
prices is a development of much in
terest, signifying an adjustment of
values to a more normal basis. The
decline in raw cotton helps the cot
ton goods situation, and while curtail'
ment of mill production still con-
tinues, the dry goods market as a
whole shows some improvement.

outside of New York made favor.

ports were $19,OSt, 112, falling off OF

SIERRA DUE FRIDAY.

A wireless message from the o. s
S. Sierra dated eight o'clock last night
showed that She was at that hour
1907 miles away from the San Fran.
cisco lightship, and was meeting with
moderate1westerly winds in a smooth
sea. The weather was clear, and the
barometer reading was 30.19 with an
air temperature of 61. There are 1874

STOCKS STRONG,
LITTLE DOING

Sugar is still creeping up, beets
gaining a penny day this week-in
fact, a second cable today makes it
half penny better than that since yes
terday Plantation stocks are strong
but not enough offering to make more
than dribble of business. McBryde,
one of the low stocks, is doing things,
fraction by fraction upward, about ev-
cry day now. All the giltedge stuff is
seemingly in retirement at topnotch
figures. Bonds rate high nearly all
down the column. None are more sur
prised than the sugar men at the
strong condition of the shares market,
as the price of sugar is yet many
points below the level of a year ago.

Our correspondent will observe that the
mistake was made by Harper and not by me.
DaVy Crockett represented Tennessee in
congress and made national reputation for
MS quantity humorous speeches. He did not
agree with Old Hickory, however, and the
jackson men, aided actively by jackson him
self, made war upon the Independent Crockett
and defeated him, by few votes

and who refused to surrender. When his
dead body was found, after the defenders of
the fort had been eXtermlnated. it was en-
clrcled by row of dead Mexicans whom he
had klned with his rife and his butcher knife.
BY the way, Bowie, whose name is linked
with another very deadly dagger was one of
the heroes of this American Thermopole. and
died game
A day or SO before the end came, vote
was taken as to whether they should CAPT.
tulate; line was marked with a sword and
the word given: ''Whoever is determined to
hight to the death, cross over this line;" Bowie
was sick abed, but he cried out: BOYS, tote
my pallet across that line." With one ex-
cepton, they all passed over One poor fell
low said: Boys, | can't help it; I'm
coward" They told him it was all right, to
escape II he could. He actually did so, and
lived to tell the story himself
Bowie the sick man, was one of the last to
die With that terrible knife which bore his
name, he took fearful toll of Mexican life
before he succumbed.
BY the way, [ am proud to say, one of the
foremost heroes in this fight for Texan indie
pendence was Fannin, Georgian. Bonham,
of South Carolina, was another.
Never in the history of warfare did such a
small band of men hold at bay such an army
of beseigers, and slaughter so many of them
before being overpowered.

What the Free Traders Should Do

The Tariff Reform League has spent large
sums OF money on Different, clerk-hire. sta
tionery and "literature."
Why not spend some of the ducats on q
frst-czass zaqCyer?
1t has always been a mystery to me, that
the q. S. Supreme Court has never been asked
to pass on the const5tuti0nazitv of the Pro
tectlve principle.
Congress has no legal right to protect one
class of citizens at the expense of all the
others
Congress has no lawful authority for
"equalizing the cost of production, here and
abroad;" or maintaining by fiscal regulations
the alleged high wages and high living of
American workmen. Congress was never
vested with the power to legislate "reaSoma6ze
profits" into the business of any class of
citizens.
The only constitutional warrant for tariff
duties is the need of national revenue. Con-
gress has no legal right to collect custom
house duties for any other purpose.
Now, when duties are levied to ewczude for
elgn goods, and to give our manufacturers a
monopoly of the home market, they are clearly
unconstitutional
But I am told that, because the tariff is
entitled "A bill to raise revenue," etc., a test
case cannot be made.
That view is superficial. To any legal
mind, it should be clear that the prohibitive
character of the duties, and the manipulation
of the Free list, raise doubt, at least, as to
the purpose of the law The true meaning
being ambiguous, resort must be had to the
expressions used by those who took part in
framing the bill
In other words, it is perfectly competent

Ter now much else you may come to love, and
have to do so, see to it that she never has lust
cause to complain of your ingratitude. It will
be one OF the sweetest memories Gas you grow
old, and she is no longer on this earth, to
recall that she was always proud of you,
always smiled you a welcome when you went
to see her; always knew that there was moth
ing that you would not do for her, if you

In these latter days. during which [ have

When Davy Crockett sat in the national Legis-

Letter to Commissioners Flint.

Bismarck. Dairy Commissioned
Flint 10 much encouraged over the
prospect OF introducing blooded cattle
into North Dakota. Following ID m
extract from letter received from ].
A. England Of Kenmare..
II had my 165 ton siio diied again
this year and the silage is Of the best
quality. We feed 1t to all the stock On
the farm, twice a day to the cattle.
and once q day to the horses, hogs
and poultry. All stock relish it, does
we'll on it and az this is by far the
cheapest and best feed any farmer can
have, none should be without it, es-
pecially when It is the surest fodder
crop that can be raised.
While dairying and stock raising
can be made to pay in North Dakota
with the aid of corn in all it's forms,
we must not forget that corn is also
crop that will make farming pay.
I had piece Of wheat on corn land
this year that yielded three times as
much as any other piece Of wheat in
this neighborhood. It stood the
drought and hot winds much better
than summer fallow, SO the profit is
not all in the excellent feeding quail
ties of the corn crop but it puts the
land in perfect condition for wheat
and if the fertilizer received from the
corn is returned to the land during
the winter the land will yield more in
one crop than it otherwise would in
two or three. But the better way is
to select the poorest land for corn,
apply plenty of manure during win
ter and spring, pillow deep, pack and
harrow it well before planting, then
this land is not only in good condi-
ton to raise crop of corn but it will
raise several good crops of small
grain as we'll.
II also believe that winter wheat
can be raised successfully by the aid
of corn. I have single horse single
disc drill, which I used between the
corn. This not only sowed the win
ter wheat but it also cultivated the
corn the last time. In this way the
wheat can be sown early enough so it
has good start before winter sets
in and by proper preparation and cul-
tivation of the corn field there will
always be enough moisture to germin-
ate the wheat and you have the corn
stubble to protect It and hold the
snow during the winter. My wheat
looks fine this fall.
"My neighbor, s. P. Nelson, built
silo last year and he is we'll pleased
with it. l believe there will be about
a dozen silos built in this neighbor-
hood next year If conditions are favor
able as the farmers are beginning to
diversity in real earnest"
