The Tabor Ball team played a.
|gainst Wagner at Dante during
the Festival. Thirteen innings
were played with a tie score of Sc
ven to seven. The purse of 500
was divided SO so. One of the
greatest crowds that ever assembl-
ed at that town was there taking
in the celebration and a fine time
was had by all.
Charles G. Blachnik returned
from Waubun, Mimi, where he
had been visiting at the home of
his brother, Max, who now owns
about 1900 acres of fine land near
town. Last spring he owned over
1900 acres, but sold some of it.
Charles informed us that the
wheat yield there was about Is bu
shells.
Now That the world war is over
and has been won for humanity
and democracy, let us turn our at
tentions to Mexico which has been
totally forgotten during the tur-
moil. Recently two of our flyers
were captured by the Villists bri-
gands and are held for ransom.
A few hangipgs of spectators
from this side of The Rio Grande
might put stop to these depreda-
tiOns.
Henry Ford finally was award
ed 6 cents damages in his suit a.
gainst certain newspaper that
called him an Ignorant idealist
and anarchist" and proved it to Il
certain extent, all of which proves
that there is nothing new under
the sun. There were Ignorant
idealists and anarchists before,
some of which were 'crazy" to
boot, but some of their ideas years
after their demise or execution
were found to he alright.
Rev. Marek, pastor of the
Presby Cerian church west of town
informs us that a collection has
been made in his church last Sun
day for the benefit of the orphans
and starving children Of Bohemia
and the sum of $4,000 was realized
aside of the vast supply of new
and used underwear and clothing
which will be sent there. The
Presbyterian church near Wagner
where Rev. Junek is pastor $1,000
donated and in Brule county $1O7C
This money has been donated to
the Alice Masaryk Fund. Names
of the donors in the drive at the
church west of town will be pub,
lished next week.

Paha, July 10Th 1919.
Mr.. j. A. Dvorak, u.
Tabor, S. D.


Mr.. j. A. Dvorak,
Tabor, S. D.
Dear Sir:
The political and industrial con-
ditions in the new republic are i'm
proving right along. Although
there has been considerable disor-
der aud discomfort with existing
conditions, the stock of the re-
public is pretty solid and gives
complete satisfaction for glori-
Gus future. The Magyars showed
up in their true colors and that
they are under the leadership of
few Jews. They inflicted an ire
parable damage on the country
and brutally tortured many young
and promising lives to death. They
proved not to be behind their for
mer associates the Germans and
surpassed them in brutality. And
this class of brutes were ruling
the Slavs for centuries! l am
surprised the people are as good
as they actually are under such
conditions. The soldiers of the
Republic, although not fully equip
ped and in small numbers did won
ders in Slovakia and made them
selves worthy of the name of their
ancestors! Everything proceeds
smoothly and quiet at present and
there is no reason to expect any
change for the time to come. A
merican iour, bacon and lard help
ed very much to keep up The good
spirit and the republic is thank
full for ihe kindness and services
the great u. S. has done and will
yet do for their young and deVout

New Orleans Cotton.
By Associated Press


 New Orleans, June 8.-Prices declined under liquidation of the long interest in cotton today, the market paying little heed to the signing of the peace treaty. Although peace is generally conceded to be bullish influence, there was no rise following the receipt of the news that the treaty had been signed: in- stead of the market softening under in creased offerings from longs who wanted to even up over Sunday and it remained depressed to the close when net declines of 10 to 60 points were shown.
 First trades were to points off but enough buying came in to move the market upward until it stood 12 to 2l points over yesterdays close. For a while the tone was nervous and price changes were irregular and the peace news did not do much to improve the tone. Realizing sales gradually increased iE volumn and late in the session the market was at net declines of g to 6o points.
 One reason why the market failed to respond to favorable influences was the improvement in weather conditions The weather map noted less rain in the belt and the forecast predicted no rain in any state in the cotton region. Many crop observers claimed that spell of fine weather was in sight and this en- couraged considerable selling for short account.

R. D. Burgers Letter

New Orleans, June 2S.-The glad tidings from effects of the peace signing by Ger many today, which will probably be fol- lowed by a rapid restoration of universal peace throughout the world, was received on this side of the Atlantic, as it will be in every quarter of the globe with much satisfaction, since the enemy, after hav- ing been defeated, was made to make written acknowledgment of his responsi- bility for the war and their crimes against civilization during the war, or for the past five years
 The signing of peace is of much inn portance to the trade and the world at large. A more important development for commercial interests lies in the lifting of the blockade against Germany, Aus tria and eastern Europe, where supplies of all commodities, especially raw cotton, and of textiles,- have been reduced to the minimum, in some instances exhausted.
 The trade is confronted with the possi- bility of another short crop of American cotton, which would be the fifth small drop which the world would have to con- tend with, and at time when the large consuming markets of central and east ern Europe will likely be thrown open to the commerce of the world.-H. & B.

CORN TRADERS BUSY LIQUIDATING DURING SATURDAY Oats Went Off a Fraction, While Provisions Varied From SC Decline to An
 Equal Gain
By AssonIated Prass

Chicago, June 2S.-Corn traders busted themselves today liquidating holdings in the July delivery and gave only passing notice to the signing of the peace treaty After ruling weak most of the time values closed unsettled $ net lower to $ advance with September 1. 75% to 175$. and December 15S5s to 1.5SA. Oats lost a shade to 154Ss In provisions the out come varied from five cents decline to an equal gain.
 Virtual indifference with which the signing of the treaty was regarded as price-making factor merely demonstrated that the news of the signing had been dis counted in full long before hand so far as the even could affect the value of corn. On the other hand, the necessity of liquidating July holdings was an ur- gent matter for unlicensed dealers. Be- sides the market was weighed down by the fact that considerable grain was arrived out of condition. Toward the last, however, rallies took place as a re- suit of covering by shorts who desired freedom from risks over Sunday. Improved crop reports tended to weak CT the oats market Dealings though were listless. Provisions held about steady. Higher quotations on hogs helped to sustain values, and so, too, did assertions that export business would be enlarged.

Cotton Review
Bv Associated Prns,

New York, June 2S-The volume of cot ton goods trading has become smaller in consequence of the difficulty of getting merchandise Mills are well sold ahead and agents are without stocks. Most oi the gray goods trading consists of pur- chases made from second hands. Some mills are beginning again to accept mod crate orders for finished goods for later delivery and in this way new prices are being made on higher levels. Percales are cents yard higher, tickings 2ikc up, dress ginghams Sc up for spring, and other lines are showing the effects of a needed upward revision to bring finished goods prices on a parity with values cur rent for unfinished cloths. Wash fabrics are being prepared for spring, 1920, anG will soon be offered. Some fine goods orders have been taken for spring by agents who trade in linens lawns, ba- tistes, etc. Current jobbing and retail business is good and reorders for small lots come forward steadily Efforts to limit future sales are being made in stronger way, as there seems to be no possibility of meeting all the demands at this time. Allotments of product are be- ing made by several mills where future business is under consideration. Produc- tion is below capacity despite the shorter hours and higher wages in mills. Opera tives are taking vacations and new work CTS are hard to find. Prices current are as follows:
 Print cloths 2S-inch, 64x64s, 11Ac; 64x60s, lie; SS1k-inch 64x64s, 16s4c; brown sheet ings, Southern standards, 2S924c; denims, 20 indigo, 3515c; tickings, 8 oz., 35c; prints, 16l4c; staple ginghams. 21c; dress ging hams, aG271kc.

Weekly Financial Review
By Associated Press

New York, June 2S-Further flurrfes in call loans, which duplicated the previous weeks maximum rate of 15 per cent, and the approaching signing of the peace treaty. removing certain long existing speculative elements, gave this week S stock market partial setback, but losses were largely recovered later when easier monetary conditions were restored.
 Recurrence of money stringency was att tributed to the heavy mid-year require ments for account of interest and divi- dend payments these causing large with drawals of funds by interior banks.
 With the virtual conclusion of the work of the peace conference. renewed atten- tion was drawn toward the many eco homie and industrial problems expected to accompany the post-bellum conditions.
 Trading declined perceptibly in volume as prices receded, but became active again, speculation assuming broader di- mensions, especially in steels. coppers, equipments and numerous industrials, in- cluding food and chemical issues.
 Suspension of the dividend on Balti- more and Ohio common, that action hav- ing heen taken in connection with the new bond issue. also tended to restrain
 Evidence of this country's supremacy as creditor nation was again forthcom- ing in the heavy exports of gold to South America and Spain, the movement to the latter country being the first since the removal of the embargo on the precious metal.

Over Private Wires
Shannon & Co.'S Letter

New York. June 2S.-The great event of the day is the signing of the peace treaty. At last this all important act in the his tory of the world is accomplished Every one is hopeful that it is the be- ginning of an era of better conditions and more worldwide prosperity. There are of course many difficulties to be met With The financial burden in Europe IS almost at the breaking point and labor conditions throughout the world are very restless and unsettled. It may take some time yet to get industry and individuals eoth settled down to the ways of peace Undoubtedly the prospect ahead of this country is remarkably favorable. if not spoiled by either politicians or labor agitators but I think it is the right fore cast to look for very prosperous years ahead. It has seemed reasonable that the big rise in the stock market would tenn porarly culminate at this time and we should have a quieter month or two and perhaps some reaction in prices but so far there is not much indication of it. Todays market was fairly active and strong. Total sales 664, 64,9O0.-Post X Flagg.

NEWS SENT COTTON DOWNWARD
 DURING TRADING
General List Closed Steady at a Net Decline of g to 45 Points Under
 Friday
By Associated Press

New York, June 2s.-The signing of the peace treaty affected the cotton market today and prices were lower under realizing or liquidation for over the approaching government report and on prospects for clearing weather. Oc- tober contracts sold off from SS91c to SS.27c. and closed at 33.32c. with the general list closing steady at net de- cline of S2 to 45 points.
 There was some buying early on an- other private crop report making the condition only 6S.6, the lowest figures. After opening barely steady at an ad- vance-of points to decline of 20 points the market sold about Is to 20 points net higher with December touching assoc. The demand was soon supplied, however, and profit taking be- came more active after the publication pointing to more favorable weather conditions.
 December broke to 32. 200 with active months generally selling 36 to 45 points net lower and closing within a few points of that level
 Cable adyices stated that Lancashire operatives were voting already to ac- cept the proposed 4S-hour a week and 30 per cent advace in wages and that 1t was generally expected this would settle matters.
 Reports from domestic goods trade indicated a larger volume of business at first hands, but said that curtail- ment of mill production at Fall River was being increased by operatives va cations and labor troubles in plants. Sales of print cloths at Fall River this week were larger than for any pre- vious week this month, being esti- mated at 220,000 yards

Over Campbell & Co.'S Wire

New Orleans, La, June 2S.-The cotton market ruled barely steady throughout today's short session and at the lowest was one hundred and forty points down from the high of yesterday.
 The market acted as we predicted yes- terday, meeting with considerable liqui- dation- by those who bought earlier in the week, being satisfied to take their profits and to remain evened up over Sunday as well as the govsrnment cef<sslt- tion and acreage report which is due July first.
 The market is receiving good support by the trade interests and it is this interest that seems quietly picking up contracts when they make their appearance. Con siderable complaints of bad crop condi- tions and foul fields are coming in from Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Mississippi and after all is said the mar ket took liquidation in very good way
 We. are looking for a condition report around 70 and feel that the market should be met with purchases on all decessions as we had today.
 There is very little market news sout other than the signing of peace which the trade looked sfor and naturally had very little effect on prices.
 Liverpool is due Monday about 42 points decline.-W. E. Campbell and Co.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, June 2S-A decided improve ment in the weather conditions in the south brought heavy selling from that section today. The signing of peace had no effect on the market, because 1t had been believed that the action of the market during the past month had dis counted this. With the government re- port coming on July material decline in prices is now probable beforeA the re- port is published The general opinion however, now is that the conditions in the south have been pretty well discount ed for the time being, and that if the weather does improve the market may be lower after the report. We expect tho trading on Monday to be of an evening up character Hubbard Bros & Co.
