Account OF The War

Chuckle! Chuckle! Here's where
you get the laugh on the war high
prices, Oranges and other fruits
should he cheap here next winter.
Not only will you benefit by their
cheapness, but the more you eat. the
healthier you will be, physicians de.
wise. Vegetarians should rejoice.
Figures compiled by the depart
ment of commerce show that in the
year ending June 80 fruit amounting
to $SS,0OO,O0O was shipped abroad.
The greater part of these products
were consumed in the countries now
at war, so that the war is sure to hurt
fruit growers, and make fruit cheap
in the United States.
There has been growing demand
in Europe for American fruits, par
tlcularly oranges, apples and dried
fruits, which have commanded good
prices.
Apples are the most popular Am
erican fruit in foreign markets.
Green or ripe apples sent abroad last
year brought $6,500,000, while dried
apples brought total of $3.50, 900.
American prunes, which are popular
as dessert on foreign tables brought
| $4,666,000. Dried aprieots sent
abroad were worth $l,94O,OOO. while
the exports in raisins amounted to
81, ,0O0,O
American canned fruits have found
an increasing market and people in
the Old World last year paid $4,900,-

BUTTE QUIET AFTER SEW
ERAL DAYS OF TOR
MOL AND FIGHT.
uAY CALL FOR D. S. TROOPS

Butte, Mont, June 24.-Eutte is qui-
ct, after the riot caused by internal
strife in the local coal miners union,
which cost the life of one man and
injuries suffered by four others, and
heavy property loss last night. Mayor
Duncan would not commit himself re-
garding the turmoil being ended, but
fears reprisals between the two fac.
tions Of the once powerful local union
of the Western Federation of Miners.
Demand Troops.
The citizens looked to Governor
Stewart at Helena for a solution of
the trouble. Charles H. Meyer, the
Federation's president, and others
driven from the miners hall under
fire, appealed to the governor for state
control at Butte. Mayor Duncan said
he would not ask for troops. as he
believes 1t to be the sheriff's duty.
The sheriff has taken no action in
that direction. The mines are being
worked as usual, the operating COM
panies not being brought into the con-
troversy. Two hundred and fifty
pounds of dynamite were exploded in
the streets last night, but the damage
was limited to the miners hall.
Civil Authorities Won't Act.
No attempt was made by the civil
authorities to stop the rioting; the
mayor expressed the opinion that more
serious trouble would he averted by
not making arrests. Insurgents de-
clared they had no party trouble last
night. Sheriff Driscoll denied that he
had deputies in Union hall last night,
or that any deputies fired into the
crowd. Governor Stewart tonight Of
fered state aid in bringing about
peace, in telegram to President Nc
Donald of the new miners union, who
answered that it was unnecessary.

The sheriff's fight occupied the
greatest attention in the county prin.
ary campaign. Both candidates mus
tered great strength and polled a
heavy vote. For long time neither
side seemed to nave any lead over the
other until late in the evening, when
French drew ahead slowly and at the
time of going to press, with IA pre-
cincts to be heard from, the vote
stands, French, 769; B'arnes, 721.
States Attorney.
Another battle was on between the
two candidates for the nomination Of
states attorney f. p. McCurdy and
H. r. B'erndt From 10 o'clock the
returns, which had been largely favor
able to Mr.. Berndt, began to change,
and when the forms closed, with a
number of precincts to be heard from,
the vote stood: Berndt, sos; McCur-
dy, 6o2; assuring the nomination Of
the former.

Three candidates will be named for
the state legislature, and of the seven
who were in the race, the following

Wheat company of $350,OO0, based on
the fact that, under its charter, Grand
Forks Is the headquarters and the
home of the company, will stand, the
city council, acting as a board OF

sessment from the rolls, as pleaded by
the company.
The assessment is based on a valu.
alton of $50,000, and it covers six
years previous to the present year,
under the head of escaped taxation.
1t Is expected the company will
make a test of the city's right to as
sess the tax, contending that there is
nothing tangible on which an assess
ment can be levied.
