Ralph says that every dollar used for drainage in northern Minnesota will increase the valu- ation of the land at least five dol- Jars. This is something for the state legislature and its mem- bers to think about. There is some complaint among pedestrians, to the frequency of bicycles being used on the side- walks, and the Pioneer has been laffairs in Beltrami county. Mr. Opsahl gained the consent of the House for a Normal School at Bewidji, several drainage appro- | priations for this county. But this is nct all. We will give you a more detailed account in some lator issve. You will fied sume of his drainage laws in the law supplement which will soon be furnished you.

WILL APPEAL FROM DECISION Is Wanted In Texas to Answer to an Indictment for Perjury in an Affida- vit Regarding the Trade Affiliations of His Company. St. Louis, May 16.—Judge Adams, in the United States circuit court here, denied the application of H. Clay Pierce, chairman of the bogrd of di- rectors of the Waters-Pierce Oil com- pany, for a writ of habeas corpus and ordered that the petitioner be remand- ed to Sheriff George S. Mathews of Travis county, Tex., for extradition. Pierce is wanted in Texas to answer to an indictment charglng perjury in an affidavit made by him in May, 1900, to the effect that the Waters-Pierce Oil company was not a party to any pool, trust, confederation or combina- tion in restraint of trade. After Judge Adams had read his de- cision Atterney Priest immediately asked that a delay of execution of the court’s order be granted to enable him to decide whether to make an appeal to the United States court of appeals or directly to the state supreme court. Judge Adams granted the request. Mr. Pierce had little to say as he left the courtroom with his attorney. He spoke to several friends who crowded to shake his hand, but made revising the wage lists. Half a dozen corporations in Quebec province and two mills in St. John (N. B.) advanced wages about 10 per cent this month. BRIEF BITS OF NEWS.

Heavy Shrinkage in Production Al- « most a Certainty, Berlin, May 16.—Interviews with a number of the leading grain merchants and members of the: produce section of the bourse here disclose a feeling of great uncertainty in connection with the grain situation. The dealers generally are disposed to regard the bresent wave of speculation as being an exaggeration. All admit, however, that the United States at this moment holds the key to the international sit- uation, but the tendency is to believe that the situation and the reports of erop shortage are exaggerated so far as the Furopean situation is con- cerned. The merchants-add that it is 1also premature to predict a heavy shrinkage of production as a factor in the general yield. Various reports of peor crop pros- pects in Germany, Hungary, Rouma- nia and Russia are playing a role in the price movement here. The Ger- man winter crop is admitted to be much delayed and a considerable acre- age was frozen out, but nevertheless good hopes are entertained that the spring planting wi overcome the shortage due to the winter damage. Reports also indicate an improvement in the Hungarian crop prospects as the result of rains. The outlock along the lower Danube and south of Russia, however, is considered bad for win- ter grain but in the Volga valley and north of Russia the prospects are uni- formly good, which is expected to counterbalance the Black Sea short- age. All things censidered, dealers here expect that the high prices will be maintained in view of the growing population in comparison with the grain. supplies Discuss Labor Situation. Philadelphia, May 16.—With an at- tendance of nearly 2,000 members the eleventh annual convention of the Na- tional Cotton Manufacturers’ associa- tlon opened here. “The labor situa- tion is the most important problem before the cotton manufacturers,” said President Lowe. “The shortage in the South is so great that cotton mill building is almost at a standstill com- pared with what it is in New Eng- land.” Your When You Plan Trip Call on the Northern Pacific Agent and let him help ar- range your journey..

I used to think they were. Now I'know better. It’s that over worked and { over crowded stomach giving the kidneys part of its work and the kidneys can’t do it. I found this out with Cooper’s New Discovery. It puts the stomach in shape, that’s ell it does, and yet I have seen thousands of people get rid of rheumatism by taking it. That is why I am positive that rheumatism is caused by stomach trouble. Here is a sample of letters I get every day on the subject. “‘For a long time I have been a victim of sciatica and inflammatory rheumatism, and my suffering has been too great to de- scribe. For weeks I lay helpless with every joint in my body so tender and sore that I could not bear to move. The slight- est touch would cause me the greatest agony. Several doctors treated me but they failed entirely. I tried many reme- dies but nothing seemed to reach my case, | so I continued to lay helpless. My kid- neys and stomach were affected also. I could eat but little, digest less and gradu- ally my strength left. Ilost flesh rapidly.”” “‘I began the use of the famous Cooper medicines of which I heard so much.

Testimony of Witness in Brownsville Inquiry. ‘Washington, May 16.—The examina- tlon of witnesses on behalf of the gov- ernment began during the day in the Brownsville investigation before the senate committee on military affairs. George W. Rendall of Brownsville, Tex., the first witness, testified that on the night of Aug. 13, when the af- fray occurred in Brownsville, he saw men whom he declared to be negro soldiers climb over the brick wall from Tort Brown and enter the town. He said also that he saw a group of from three to five men inside the gar- rison gate and saw the flash of two or three shots fired by men in another group. These men, he said, moved up the wall on the inside and joined an- Chicago Grain and Provisions. Chicago, May 15.—Wheat—May, 91%c; July, 93% @93%c. Corn—May, 52% @52%c; July, 52%c.
