there came incidents of nocturnal

AN OPERATION NECESSARY.
After DR.. Wawruch had reached this
decision DR.. Staudenheimer was called
in consultation and confirmed the at
tending physicians opinion as to the
necessity of an operation. Beethoven
was told. after few moments of
serious thought he gave his consent. "

HE STUDIES MULTIPLICATION.
In the carly days, after Beethoyen's
return TO Vienna, there IS eontinus-
tion of correspondence with Scnott
Sons concerning the publication OF tne
works which the publishers had pur-
chased from the composer, and Deiore
the end Of December, probably IN tne
third week, occurs the incident, ire
ouently told, of the receipS 81 Iing
from the King of Prussia, which mad

now occupied with preparations for ms
military career. and upon him. until
the arrival of Holz, appears TO devolVe
the labor of writing letters and carry

used on December 4 and the two foi-.
lowing days bears q pathetic proof OF
Beethoven's helplessness in the matter
of figures. A page is filled with eX-
amples in simple NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
without answers, Of threes, tours,
sevens, etc.-and the remark: Then

The Equity Cooperative Grain Ex-
change is finding in the officials and
retainers of the Minneapolis Chamber
of Commerce, body Of very useful
enemies. With a view of exciting dis
trust and suspicion among the patrons
of the Equity, they have been scatter
ing letters suggesting that inquiries
be made as to the prices received,
commissions charged, and, in general
into all the methods of the Equity.
That is just what the Equity manage.
ment has always desired-investiga-
ton, exposure, the opening up OF all
EQuity's relations with every patron
and every purchaser-that is all 1t
needs to make it solid with the grain
raisers of the northwest. 1t welcomes
inquiry as the thriving plant welcomes
the fructifying sun.
For the following letter Is but sam.
ME Of the sort of replies received by
those who have thought it worth while
to pay attention to the inuendoes con-
veyed in the would.be misunderstanding
letters.
Minneapolis, MINI. 12-15.13.
Mr.. Alfred Keel, Underwood. N. D.
Dear Sir: We have yours of the 9th
and note fully the information request
ed, relative to the Equity Cooperative
Exchange Co. Will state that we do
not sell the grain consigned to the
Equity, but We buy cars from them &C.
easionally. Anything We get from them
represents a straight purchase and in
all cases where we have bought grain
from them and afterwards resold it.,
the original purchase was made on the
basis Of our judgment. In other words
ve buy grain from them as we do from
anyone else, with the expectations Of
making profit on it.
Hardly know what other information
We might give you. Will state that we
have bought great deal OF grain from
the Equity of late, owing to the fact
that they have been finding other out
lets, and as it were, cutting out men,
bers Of the Chamber of Commerce.
We trust what we have given you is
what you wanted, and remain,
Yours very truly,
R. J. tombstone Company.
Wallace, S. D., Feb. 6, 1914.
Mr.. George S. LOTUS, Minneapolis,
MINI.
Dear Sir: Answering your letter Of
the 18th. The gentleman Of the Mime
apolis Chamber Of Commerce is the
man who asked me to introduce the
resolution to condemn the officers Of
the South Dakota Association and
when refused, he later called on Mr..

to do the job and while he carried out
orders, he told me after he had done
so that he was sorry he ever tackled
the job.
Mr.. McHugh was with other men
when he called on me. He had the
most to say and said If the resolutions
were passed that he thought 1t would
sure carry and force the election Of
new officers as the old men should be
voted out on account of their having
endorsed the Equity.
He said they had men picked out
who would be favorable to the Cham
Der of Commerce and then they would
win the battle in South Dakota with
out any trouble.
He said that his people did not like
the old board of directors.
Yours very truly,
Henry Paul.
The Equity has been finding other
outlets" and cutting out members Of
the Chamber of Commerce. There's
the rub! There's the secret of the fu-
SHADE of accusation and inuendo
against the Equity, with which the
friends of Cooperative marketing
have been assailed:
If the Equity was not getting more
and more Of the grain: If members Of
the Chamber Of Commerce were not
being "cut OUT Of the opportunities
they enjoyed for making illegiti.
mate profits at the expense Of country
shippers. would we witness any such
hostile activities?
1t is because the Equity is succeed
ing; it is because the great heart Of
the agricultural northwest Is on its
side; it is because 1t represents an
economic righteousness which is heir
to the eternal years Of Cod" that 1t
invites the attack of the Predatory
Wealth entrenched in the Minneapo.
