arrived the buyer who promised two
dollars and a half a bushel had flown.
with about a hundred dollars Of the
town peoples money, owing board
bill of five dollars and livery account
of 26 iron men. The farmers were
forced to take $1.50 bushel for their
spuds, from local merchant at Avon,
instead of the fancy price offered by
the stranger.
Early in the week, August Schneider
alias Ed. Oregon, appeared in Avon,
and Immediately hired rig and went
out to the farms Whereabouts. He mace
a high offer for potatoes, and told
the farmers that they would receive
their pay on Friday, when they
brought the spuds to the village for
delivery. The price was to be $3.50 a
bushel. This offer sounded pretty
good to the farmers, and so they ac-
copied the offer, and contracted to
bring $50 busiest to town. The man
claimed to represent the First National
Bank of Webster City, Iowa.
In making such lavish offer, Schnei-
der, or Oregon, placed himself in high
favor with the residents of that town,
and on Friday morning when he aske
for a little money until the ha~
opened at 9 o'clock, he had no difficult
ty in cashing ten and twenty-dollar
checks until he had about hundred
dollars in perfectly good money. He
then took the morning train, saying
that he was going to st. Joseph to buy
some more potatoes. He told the liv-
eryman to call for him in St. Joseph
an hour later, and jumped on the train.
That was the last heard of the man.
A telegram sent to First Nationall
Bank of Webster City, Iowa, received
an answer that they had no buyer rep
resenting them. After consultation,
the farmers decided to sell their pota-
toes to Frak Schmidt, for dollar and
half a bushel. Schmidt thought he
was getting big thing, but his pota-
toes only brought dollar and fifty
five in the city market.
A letter from the chief of police st
Jamestown, N. D., was received by
Sheriff Ben Schooner this morning,
stating that the man was wanted in
Red Wing and in other localities,
where he had pulled the same game
and gotten away with various amounts
of money on forged checks. The
Jamestown officials allege that the
mans real name is Ed. Oregon, and
that his home is in that city.

FUEL SITUATION
MAY Be SERIOUS
CONSUMERS AND SMALL DEAL.
ERS CAN HELP SITUATION
BY COOPERATION
FILL YOUR COAL bins EARLY
FACILITIES WILL BE TAXED
LATER TO HANDLE GRAIN
AND WAR SUPPLIES

Warning is given by the Railroad
and Warehouse Commission to the coar
consumers of the Northwest that the
fuel situation next winter, through
variety of causes, may be more serious
than the trying time of the past sea-
son.
Eergetic measures have been taken
by the State and Federal officials to
start a big movement of coal from the
mines to the Head of the Lakes for
distribution, but this move is only half
the solution of the problem. The
small dealers and the ultimate con-
sumers must cooperate to fill the
local yards and the home bins. The
Minnesota Railroad and Warehouse
Commission have addressed a circular
to the local dealers and consumers ur-
ging them to place their orders now,
as there will be no more favorable
time for delivery than the coming two
months.
In August grain will begin to move,
and the National Defense Committee
of the American Railway association,
may direct that it be given preference
by the railroads as coal is now being
given the right of way through the
orders of Fairfax Harrington, chair
man of the committee.
lizard coal is already arriving ut
Duluth" said Commissioner Charles
E. Elmquist in discussing the coal sit
uatlon. can unfortunate feature of
the Lake traffic jut now is the prac-
tlce OF some of the ore and grain lines
to return their boats eight" from the
lower lake ports to Duluth instead of
waiting for a coal cargo for the cup"
trip. They find that there is more
profit, under the high ore and grain
rates now prevailing, to make three
round trips with grain or ore one way
than to make two trips with coal, at
low rates, as return cargo, both
plans consuming about the same
amount of time. The United States
Shipping Board has he matter in hand
and we expect to hear soon that the
lake carriers have been forbidden to
proceed to the Head of the Lakes in
ballast when there is coal at the docks
awaiting transportation. The general
managers of the Great Northern, the
Northern Pacific, the 500 and North
western roads have assured us that
cars will be available whenever the
orders are received. After that it is
up to you people of the Northwest"
