ENGLAND CHECKS
 UP ON FRENCH, TOO
Chamberlain Sends New Note
 About Debt

Paris, July : bPN-The interallied debt question has been thrust still further to the fore by tho receipt from London of a new memoran- dnm suggesting that France make an offer for settlement of her debt 10 England. even if only q provis- ionaI one
 The memorandun signed by Foreign Secretary Chamberlain. tnkes cognizance Of Frances plans in connection with her American deht by stating that Great Britain has no desire 10 interfere with ne- gotiations which France might initi4 ate with other creditors powers.
 Mir. Chamberlain seizes the oc- casion, however, to state the prirci- pie that England feels that she is entitled to treatment on an equal footing--that is, should France sign an agreement for payment Of part of her debt 10 the United States the British would expect q propor- tlOAdle IGllllUulStinSIl DI tHN sums due them,
 The British memorandum is being studied by Foreign Minister Briand and Finance Minister Caillaux, who not long ago were given authority by the cabinet to initiate negota~ tions for settlement Of the inter allied debts
 Pending the dispatch Of addi- tional instructions to NJ. Daeschner, the Trench ambassador at Wash ington, the government has asked him 10 inform the American au- thorities that France Is disposed to send commission to the United States 10 discuss the question.
 The Echo De Paris thinks the British memorandum means that, while any agreement reached by France with America will entai! a similar agreement with England the British government recognizes the entire freedom Of the United States to grant easier conditions tt France, Italy and her other debtors than were given to England.

Auto Accident
Occurs Fri. Eve,
Cars Wrecked
LOCAL BUSINESS MAN HAS
CLOSE CALL IN BAD AUTO
CRASH ON NARROW BRIDGE
WEST OF TOWN.

Last Friday night saw the sixth
automobile accident to happen this
summer along the bridge spanning
Ramsey Creek about five miles west
of Redwood on Trunk Highway
No. Ia. The bridge is so narrow that
two cars are unable to pass. Friday
evening, w. H. Gold, returning from
a business trip and gentleman from
Tracy had their cars rather badly
wrecked. Coming from opposite direc-
tions the drivers attempted to pass
on the bridge and collided. The DAM
age to both ears will amount to be-
tween $500 and $700. That the par
ties escaped without injuries is mir
aculous.
There are three bridges on Trunk
Highway No. IA within few miles OF
Redwood Falls which are too mar
row to allow cars to pass and they
are particularly dangerous because
they happen to be at the foot of long
hills. One bridge is located about
six miles from Redwood Falls at the
foot Of the long Morton hill on sharp
curve. The second dangerous bridge
is the one referred to in this article
and the third is located about a mile
and half west of the Wabasso corn
er.
1t seems that the citizens of this
and the surrounding communities are
entitled to consideration in the re-
moval of these dangerous bridges and
the construction of bridges adequate
to care for the safety of the heavy
travel on Trunk Highway No. ID.

Champ Baseball
Game Here Sun

WANDA WINNER OF B-W-R. TRI-
COUNTY LEAGUE AND FAIR
FAX CHAMPIONS OF PRAIRIE
LEAGUE TO MEET HERE.

Baseball fever is at white heat
lately as the result Of the snappy
Wanda aggregation of horsehide tos-
sers winning the B-W-R, Tri- County
league championship and Fairfax an
nexing the Prairie League gonfalon.
Supporters of these two aggregations
desire to see their favorites in action
to decide, who's Who" in baseball
history hereabouts. Accordingly, the
two Champs" are booked to do bat
tie at the Redwood Falls County
Fair Grounds on Sunday afternoon
August 3Oth at 8 p. NJ. sharp. The
contest is to be held under the aus
pices of the Scenic City Band. It is
reported that large delegations of
loyal boosters will be on hand to aid
and assist their teams. Both outfits
have been playing "bang-up" ball
lately and a good game is the pros
pect looked forward to on Sunday af-
ternoon.
Wanda just recently finished trim
ming up the Tri-County League in
good style winning a majority of
their games while Fairfax has romp-
ed right merrily through the Prai-
rie League schedule. Both teams
have proved to be the snappiest anna
teur league teams in this section. The
rivalry is especially keen and the
lovers of the game should be salts
fled on Sunday.
Before the game the Scenic City
Band will give a concert at the fair
grounds.

Redwood Co. Land
Brings Neat Sum
In Recent Deal
UNIMPROvED FORTY ACRES
NEAR MORGAN BRINGS 5000
PER ACRE; INDICATES LAND
RECOVERY.

Redwood county land is coming
back. Farms in this section are not
going begging on the market at any,
body's price.
This is the indication from land
sale consumated in Morgan last Sat-
urday when George Gilland of Sleepy
Eye sold detached, unimproved for
ty acres in Brookville township to
Carl Schmidt, at 5000 per acre.
Mr.. Schmidt paid Mr.. Gilland the
handsome sum of $4,000 for this "for-
ty" which lies across the road from
his farm. While it is a desirable
piece of land there is not dollars
worth of improvement on it and the
price paid was for the land itself.
The description Of the property in
volved in the deal is the East half
of the East half of the Southwest
quarter of Section z, lying in school
district No. "a, Brookville township.
The land lies across the road to the
west of the Schmidt farm.
The deal was made personally be-
tween the buyer and seller with no
commissions of any kind. While no
real estate men got "slice" out of
the deal they are all well pleased with
it for it is harbinger of better days
to come in the real estate game. Land
will slowly commence to move, and
even this fall several deals are an
ticipated. 1t was not the deal itself,
however, that attracts attention for
as . matter of fact there have been
deals here and there over the county
this year, but it is the price Of the

Anniversary of
Ft. Ridgely De-
fenSe Held Thurs.
THRILLING DRAMA RE-EN ACTED
OF ATTACK ON EARLY SET
TIERS BY SIOUX INDIANS IN
1862.

Word painting of historic events
was featured before. a large gath
ering at Fort Ridgley Thursday af-
ternoon. Again the drama which
stirred the souls of the actors, who
were on the stage of action in Aug
ust, 1862, was enacted. The thrilling
scenes were reviewed. The pano-
rama of that spectacle, wherein
brave men and women are shown
as beating back the Sioux Indians,
was exhibited to younger genera
tion, now benefitting from the he
roic deeds of pioneers, who came
into Minnesota's wilds in early days.
The brave defense of Fort Ridgely
is story that never grows old. 1t is
tale that is linked with the his
tory of the development of Mime
sofa. 1t is a narrative that has no
counter part in the history of In
dian warfare. 1t is the chronicle of
a defeat of the redskins and their
rout, for hal they succeeded in
storming that citadel of defense
their assaults on the settler could
not have been stopped. They would
have broken down a barrier and
opened the way to Southeastern
Minnesota, and in the wake of their
murderous drive they would have
left behind them victims of savagery
and ruins of pillage-marks of vi
olence and villainy indescribable.
Thursday was held a celebration
in anniversary of the defense of
Fort Ridgely. 1t was a remarkable
gathering. Not so much because of
the large attendance, but the more
important reason that it brought
again into the limelight men, who
bore part in the defense of the
fort.
During the forenoon people came
from every direction-from near and
far. Up to the noon hour they spent
their time in looking over the
grounds whereon had stood the
fort. But one small structure re-
mains of the several buildings that
years ago constituted the defense.
A tall shaft erected by the state of
Minnesota commentaries the valor
displayed by Lieutenant T.. j. Shee-
han and his defenders. On this shaft
are their names and a review of
the battle which occurred between
these men and the redskins. On
hill overlooking a ravine is a ceme-
terry wherein sleep many of those
who fought the Indians and kept in
tact the fort. Old Glory was in evil
dence everywhere, the symbol of
patriotism and love Of country.
The ceremonies of the afternoon
were commenced shortly after one
o'clock and were presided over by
Colonel c. H. Hopkins, who intro
duced the several speakers and
made the announcements. Colonel
Hopkins is in charge of the grounds
and has been untiring in his efforts
to make Fort Ridgely one of the
important points of interest in
Minnesota. He is generals
simo on all public occasions and is
meant for the part When he shall
have faded from the picture it will
be a difficult task for the state and
the Fort Ridgely State Park and

Hog Cholera Near
Springfield; Urge
Vaccination
ALMOST ENTIRE HERDS LOST
HOG RAISERS SHOULD BE ON
LOOKOUT FOR DREAD DISEASE
WHICH SPREADS RAPIDLY.

During the past two weeks there
has been a serious outbreak of hog
cholera in the vicinity of Springfield
Some so cases have been reported,
but most of these were noticed in
time, so that, by proper vaccination,
most of the pigs could be saved. In
some instances, where vaccination
was neglected, almost the entire
herds were wiped out.
When cholera first appears in a
herd, the hogs do not all become sick
at once, but, on the contrary, only
one or two will refuse to come up and
eat with the herd. The rest of the
herd may remain apparently well for
several days when others are likely
to become affected in about the same
way as those first attacked. As the
disease progresses, the sick hogs be-
come gaunt or tucked in the flank and
have weak staggering gait, the
weakness being most marked in the
hind legs.
: Some other symptoms may be a
cough, eyes inflamed with whitish dis
charge and constipation followed by
diarrhoea. As the disease reaches its
height, red or purplish blotches ap-
pear on the skin on various surfaces
of the body.
Some of the symptoms mentioned
may be present in other diseases, but
one must remember that cholera
spreads very rapidly through the herd,
and no time should be lost in calling
a veterinarian to diagnose the disease
and administer proper treatment. If
the disease is cholera, heavy losses
can be averted by prompt vaccination.
Vaccination is often given a so
called 'sblack eye" when man waits
until most of his hogs are sick before
vaccinating them. Even at that, sort
ing healthy hogs from the sick ones
by taking temperatures will avoid
much loss.
The easiest way to avoid hog
cholera is to administer the double
treatment before the hogs are sick.
This will prevent all trouble and
worry.-Brown Co. Journal.
