COM MUNICATION.

Hanaford, N. D., Oct. 1. To The
Forum: In regard to your write-up
about the shooting going on at the
Great Northern depot at Hannaford,
Sept. rs, will say that same is not
true, and l will not stand for such a
misstatement. On Thursday evening
at 8 o'clock l met n tough-looking
character down town. He asked me
about any freight going west on the
Great Northern. He looked kind of
suspicious to me so I went to my office
agent to be ON the watch for q man
heading toward the. depot and notify
me if anything happened. At II o'clock
I got a call from the Great Northern
depot to come at once as there was a.
mar making a disturbance. AS I
reached the depot l met a nan COM
ing toward me. l asked him what he
was doing out at that time Of night.
He told me he was waiting for a
freight going west to Grace City. l
did not take his word out tool him
along to the Jail and locked him up.
At 4 o'clock in the morning l got
another call to come to the depot, but
when l got there l couldn't see any,
one. All was quiet. Friday evening
I got a call to come to the depot at
once as there were robbers trying to
break into the depot. I rushed to the
pool hall and called out help, and to-
gether with a number of men went
up to the depot and found hat the
disturbance was caused by a crew OF
Italians who had been instructed to
shoot anyone who looked like a hobo
who they might be suspicious of. One
of the carpenters on the elevator nae
been down town and was walking
home to the camp and was mistaken
by the Italians for a hobo. -
The statement in your write-up that
the agent chased a man about a mile
and brought him back to the depot, Ii
not true, as the agent was not in ch'
chase at all. lf there hal been any
chase at all. If there had been an.
suspicion that the man in question
vas guilty of any "misderneanor h
would have been arrested.

Just one point higher than three
months ago.
Dividends paid by large corporations
for September amounted to $58,000,000.
$35, 000, 900 of which m from in
dustrial corporations. September div
idends last year were nearly $59,000,-
600. Interest payments for Septem-
Der have amounted to nearly $54,OOo,-
900 compared with $48,0 900, 900 for the
same month last year. Total dividend
and interest disbursements showed an
increase Of nearly 100000 for the
month.
The average price Of all commodi-
ties has advanced both in this country
and in Europe. Metals prices are
somewhat higher and grain prices
have recorded q considerable advance
already on account of several short
crops.
1t is a difficult matter to bring to-
gether dependable statistics covering
the entire output of the farms Of this
country per year, but, not counting
livestock on farms which will not be
sold during the year, it is believed
that the average farm production Of
meat animals, horses, grains, fbres,
fruits, vegetables, ETC., averages about
So, 500, 000, 900.
The total production of all crops
combined for this year is fully 1919
below average. The government es-
Inmates the production of cereals at
20% less than last year The produce
ton of wheat is above average but the
total grain, seed, cotton, tobacco and
hay crops will probably be 1919 or
.11% below average. The fruit produc-
ton is 1919 below and vegetables so
below,
The. best business conditions are
found in the north central states while
conditions are poor IN Mississippi,
Alabama, Kentucky and Kansas as
well as in portions of Tennessee, Okla
homa, Nebraska and South Dakota.
The most active states in the country
today are Minnesota, Wisconsin and
Michigan, while that portion of the
country not mentioned reports bust
ness to be about average. -
The general situation is better than
for some time past, money is easier
and foreign trade is good Manufac-
turing and merchandising lines should
show steady increases for>the balance
Of the year. Respectfully submitted,

stimulates the appetite and is slightly

This makes more and better cough

extract, and is rich in glaiacol and
other natural pine elements which are
SO healing to the membranes. Other
preparations will not work in this plan,

DR.. WILEY's NEW THOUGHT.

~Dr. Harvey Wiley, former chief of
tbs chemistry division of the depart
ment Of agriculture, or. for purposes
of greater brevity, plain Food Com
missioner Wiley. advanced a new
thought in social economics at the In
ternational Congress and Exposition
of Refrigeration at Chicago.
The cost of living was under discus
sion again. and producers of %foodstuffs
had been designated as among those
taking all the traffic will bear. 1t was
in discussing the movement Of popu-
lation from the farms to the cities
that DR.. Wiley indicated a new way of
adjustment between supply and de-
mand. and producers and consumers.
He said: T my mind it seems the
most important factor of the day is to
check the aggregation of men in the
cities and to encourage the d~istribu-
ton Of the great industries where men
are employed. The factory in a farm
neighborhood is a boon to every farm =
er, affording him a home market and
saving the cost Of transportation. The
moral and mental effect Upon the peo-
pie of a distribution of industries is nc
less important. If our productive in
duBtries in manufacturing lines were
properly distributed, the alcohol evi,
would be robbed of most Of it's ter
rors."

OUTLOOK IS BRIGHT.


The First National bank Of this city
IN it's monthly letter giving a review
Of general trade conditions, reports
that the outlook Is bright for good
business throughout the country. The
north central states are especially
active.
! The tone Of the letter is always con-
~servative, and it gives a very clear
conception of the general tone Of
business Of the nation. The Forum
publishes the letter this evening.
: The Forum Is of the opinion that
North Dakota business men are
especially optimistic. The crop in al
most every section of the state has
had been Anticipated. Practically all
the crop is now threshed and while
there have been some section Of the
state where it has been exceedingly
light. there has not been an entire
failure in any n section.
Money is plentiful in North Dakota,
the weather has been ideal for fall
blowing, and the state is getting in
shape to put in a tremendous acreage
next year, which makes the prospects
for the immediate future especially
bright.
One Of the most important features
of the present outlook, is the changed
attitude of the farming community
toward diversified farming. The
Forum has spoken of this before but
it will bear repetition. The state
having matured a remarkably fine crop
of corn. will have an abundant supply
the home grown seed fer next year
The increased interest in dairying and
stock raising is apparent on every
hand. The old one crop system seems
to have seen its best days and the
state appears to be at the threshold
Of a period of greater prosperity and
progress than ever.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, say a well known authority,
because the uric acid in meats excites
the kidneys, they become overworked;
get sluggish; clog up n all
sorts of distress, particularly back
ache n misery in the kidney region;
rheumatic tWinges, severe. headaches,
acid stomach, constipation, torpid.
liver, sleeplessness, bladder and uri-
nary irritation. A.
The moment your back hurts or
kidneys aren't acting right, or II
bladder bothers you, get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any good
pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in d
glass of water before breakfast for a
few days and your kidneys will then
act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid Of grapes and lemon
Juice, combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush
clogged kidneys and stimulate them TO
normal activity; also to neutralize The
acids in the urine SO it no longer irri-
tates, thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful ~effervescent Iithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and hen to keep the
Kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney diseases.

Total liabilities were nearly 21,Oo0,0 600,
exceeding those of any previous month

figure was luz to several heavy fall

1t has seemed hat business failures
were unusually numerous this year
but it should be noted THAT the num-
Der Of business failures for 1918 to

period Of last year. For the balance

get a distorted view because, as above
mentioned, business during the sum -
mer months Of 1912 was unusually

THE ESPERANTO MYTH,

The recent convention abroad of the
devotees of Esperanto, the latest
wonld-be universal language, throws
anSinteresting light upon the inextin-
gHishable vitality of thu sincere but
mistaken fraction Of humanity who
delight in chasing rainbows, and to
whom idealistic theories are of more
ONE thar the lessons of common
sense and experience.
Since the days of the Tower Of Babel
it has been widely realized that a con-
fusion Of tongues is the greatest of all
h~inderances towards free intercourse
between nations. Hence the engaging
lure OF an universal language that
sha simplify social and business in
~tercourse, and break down the bar
riers Of ace and nationality. Like
many another iridescent dream, it is
based on theory rather than on ele-
mental facts. Int has consequently
never gotten anywhere.
Language essentially is an organic
creation. since it begins and grows by
slow accretion and developments, and
can consequently never be made to
order in machine-like fashion, says
The st. Louis Times. When we once
get a language grown, our first effort
is to crib and confine 1t by, that arti-
fetal and handmade method which we
exalt as grammar. with the resultant
effect that the language with the most
grammar soon stagnates and becomes
an inorganic thing. devoid of life and
further growth. You can have growth
and expansion in a plant, but only
regularity and death in a crystal. The
Germans. with their natural instinct
for order and system. have a scien.
afic language that is a wonder fol
harmony and consistency, but of small
value for worldwide Workaday pur.
doses.
English is criticised by SCHOONER
and students for those very qualitie
which give it enduring life and adapt
ability. Its lack of grammar and o
consistency its susceptibility to rlev
thoughts and impressions, its scorn q
