COINS TO NICARAGUA

import duties into the country, to be
collected by one of its own agents.
They recommended, first, that be-
fore any new money was introduced
into the country large part, at least,
OF the old paper currency should be
summarily destroyed. This advice has
been taken, and up to date sum Of
$12,O00000 paper currency has been
burned, and many millions more will
meet the same fate. The agents. 1t Is
said, commonly used the flreboxes OF
railroad locomotives as incinerators.
This is said to be the nearest the Nj
caraguan railroads have ever come to
being run on Nicaraguan capital.
BY this means the rate of exchange
has been lowered nearly so per cent.
and the paper peso is now worth the
sum Of cents. gold, which rate will
remain.
The new money viii be gradually
given out as the old paper currency is
called in, and 121k pesos win be re-
ceived In exchange for one silver cor
doba. It Is not expected that the ig-
norant people will take to the new
system without suspicion, accustomed
as they are to vast fluctuations in the
currency, but the intelligent people
and the business classes will probably
take the new money without hesita-
ton.

INDICT THREE RAILROADS
Warrants Caused By Goodhue County
Grand Jury Under Gopher Law.

Red Wing, June 25.-The sheriff s
office here late yesterday afternoon
took steps to serve warrants returned
yesterday by the grand jury against
railroads entering Goodhue county
for violating the state 2-cent rate
law. The three railroads affected are
the Chicago Great Western, the
North Western and the Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul. -. .s...S.......@ s..-.....< /:
The grand jury was discharged
early yesterday afternoon. None OF
the jurors would give any informa-
ton as to the indictments, and other
county officials were equally reticent.
The indictments found yesterday are
the result of action taken by Judge
Albert Johnson of Goodhue county
court nearly month ago. .-
Although at that time the Federal
supreme court had not rendered its
decision in the Minnesota rate case
and it was generally supposed all
state and county officials were re-
strained from acting in the matter,
Judge Johnson charged the grand
jury that it should indict the rail
roads which have violated the 2-cent
law in the state.
The jury, however, at that time
failed to return any indictments, de-
claring its belief that the case being
then in the court, should not inter
fere. -
Judge Johnson was indignant al
the report of the grand jury and in
stead of discharging it at that time
he said he would call the members to.
gether again later. This week he re.
peated his, demand that they indic1
the railroads. The action yesterday
followed his charge delivered Mon.
day.
+ State Senator Albert Schaller, Has.
|tings, and "A. j. Rochne, Zumbr0ta
have volunteered to prosecute thu
case for the state.

URGES FARMERS TO AID HIM
Call Attention to Fact That Hundreds
of Vigitors From Outside States
Will View the Display.
TELLS WHAT IS NEEDED MOST
And Way in Which Glover and Other
Grass Should Be Stored When
Ripe-Many Give Prizes.

Charles F. Schroeder, who has been
appointed by the board of county
commissioners to have charge of the
Beltrami exhibit at the State Fair
September l to 6, this morning said
II am anxious to make a creditable
showing, and in order to do so I need
the cooperation of every farmer in
our county.
:'The benefits that county may
derive from an exhibit of it's pro-
ducts at the State Fair can hardly be
estimated. The productive possibil-
tiles of our county are placed before
the thousands of visitors from other
states as we'll as our own.
Nov is the time to prepare and
commence to gather native or wild
grasses. In this class we need
twenty varieties and the varieties
that produce a seed head should be
gathered as soon as the head is fully
out, but before they ripen and lose
the green color, the grass should be
tied in bundles loosely and cured in
side away from strong light, in a
building with good ventilation.
t''The. samples must be two inches
at band when cured, all leaves left
on, the bundles should be suspended
heads down to allow the straw to
cure straight.
"The earlier of these grasses will
eb ready to gather in the latter part
of June and others will appear at the
proper stage to harvest up to Sep
tember.
''In tame grasses and clovers we
need ten varieties including alfalfa
three inches at band when cured. The
grasses should be taken care of the
same as wild grasses
s"The clovers when possible should
be gathered when the blossom is in
full bloom. They should be- cured in
a dark place but where the ventila-
tion is good to prevent moulding, tied
with one band near the butt, and
suspended heads down when curing.
IT am in hopes that good lot OF
sample be gathered by our farmers,
as these samples can also be used to
compete for prizes at our county fair
next fall.
,"Qur railroad companies are ar
ranging to give prizes at our county
fair on grasses, clovers, alfalfa and
stock. Full particulars will be given
in our premium list which will go to
the printers soon."
