Recent frosts have injured the gardens in this vicinity to quite an extent. Monday Messrs. Henry Johnson and Nels and Frank Hendrickson left home for Dakota. Haying here is nearly completed and a good supply ofa very good quality of hay has been put up. Messrs. John and Joshua Jocuylo, Theo. Berg and Andrew Moe left here for Adams, N. D. last Friday. Miss Louise Bakke of Minneapolis is spending her summer vacation here on her claim and visiting her cousins, the family of Mr. Stocke. Little Marigold Dawson, who has been with her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. P. E. Spink for the past year, left for her parents’ home in Black- duck last Monday. Miss Edith Miller,who came home from Grand Forks, N. D., a short time ago, left last Monday, for Min- neapolis, where she will visit with friends and relatives. Miss Lillie Miller, who has been spending the summer at home has returned to Minneapolis (her former home) where she will take a position in an office in that city. The blueberry season can hardly be considered over while hundreds of hushels of the beautiful fruit is still on the bushels but everyone seems to have gathered their winter supply and the “‘Ridge” for the most part appears deserted. The baseball team which was organized during the summer, played its last game very recently and the majority of its members were a part of the general exodus to the Dakota wheat fields where the only curves allowable will be those around the field ina farm wagon, and the only fouls will be those (fowls) which disturb the slumbers of the tired youth at an early morning hour, from the barnyards of the Dakota farmer. POSTAL SAVINGS 'BANKS. Postmaster General Meyer Urges Their Establishment. Washington, Sept. ).—In his forth- toming annual report Postmaster Gen- eral George von L. Meyer will urge upon congress the establishment of a postal savings system throughout the United States. Observations abroad in connection with his duties as a dip- lomat have convinced Mr. Meyer of the benefits that have accrued both to the governments and the peoples of foreign countries through the postal savings bank scheme. What has been found good for other nations, he be- Meves, will prove equally beneficial to the people of this country. ASKS TO BE RELIEVED. Director General of Jamestown Expo- sition Would Petire. Norfolk, Va., Sept. )—In a letter addressed to the committee of direc- tors which arranged a settlement of differences eXisting some weeks ago between himéelt and President Harris St. George Tucker of the Jamestown Exposition, James W. Barr requests to be relleved of his dutles as director general. Continued conflict between Mr. Tucker and Mr. Barr over the so- tial features of the exposition caused Mr. Barr's action. He claims he\can- not coritinue fa his position and main- tain his self-respect. Supposed to Be Unloaded. Lincoln, Neb., Sept.'. 9.—While hin- dling a revolver which he suppésed was unloaded John J. Haul, son of'N. J. Haul, president of the .St. Paul State bank, accidentally shot himse]t through the heart. He was thirty years old and a director in his father’s bank. TADES COURT DT Standard 0Oil Company Still Do ing Business in Texas. {0HN D. PRINCIPAL OWNER Brought Out at Hearing in New York City That President of Company Owns More Than One-fourth of All Outstanding Stock. New York, Sept, 2 —Evidence was adduced at the hearing of the federal suit against the Standard Oil company of New Jersey, which Frank B. Kel- logg, who is conducting the govern- ment’s action, says tends to prove that the Standard Oil company Is op- erating In Texas under the name of the Corsicana Refining company. The Texas anti-trust laws forbid the Stand- ard Oil company from doing business within that state. Mr. Kellogg devel- oped from Wesley M. Tilford, treas- urer of the Standard Oil company, that H. C. Folger and C. M. Payne, who, Mr. Kellogg said, were the own- ers of the Corsicana company, are offi- olals of the Standard Oil company. Mr. Kellogg further developed the fact that John D. Rockefeller owned more than a one-fourth interest in the old Standard Oil trust. Mr. Tilford testified that it was correct that Mr. Rockefeller owned 256,854 shares out of a total of 972,500 shares of Stand- ard Oll trust certificates in 1892 and that later an assignment was made transferring to Mr. Rockefeller his proportionate interest in the stocks of the subsidiary companies. Hearing May Be Prolonged. ‘Wesley H. Tilford, treasurer of the Standard Oil company, was questioned by Attorney Kellogg in an effort to glean further facts and figures con- cerning the development of the Stand- ard Oil trust and its subsequent liqui- dation into the present Standard Oi} company of New Jersey. Mr. Kellogg said that the records of the liquidating trustees, which had been flnally fur- nished by the Standard Oil company, were being examined by the govern- ment’s counsel and that it might be several days before the information desired could be produced in court. Mr. Kellogg also intimated that fur- ther witnesses might be subpoenaed as a result of the developments of the last two days and that the hearings would likely be prolonged for some time. ‘When the hearing reopened after the noon recess former Judge Ferriss, sitting as special master, announced that the proceedings would be ad- journed because of the illness of one of the counsel. John G. Milburn said that his associate, Moritz Rosenthal, was suffering from a slight indisposi- tion. OLD MEN TO RETIRE. Younger Element Taking Active Part in Standard Oil Affairs. New York, Sept. 21.—Wall street generally believes that a new era in the personnel of the Standard Oil com pany leaders is beginning. It is thought that the younger element in the great corporation is coming to the front and that the older element is relinquishing its active hold upon the affalrs of the company and those of the vast interests Which have been afiliated with it. John D. Rockefeller, Jr.,, William G. Rockefeller, Urban H. Broughton, son-in-law of H. H. Rogers, and H. H. Rogers, Jr., are among the younger men who are looked upon by the street as now directing affairs. ‘Willlam Rockefeller is regarded as likely to take a principal part still in the company’s councils, but most of the other men who have been called the makers of the Standard Oil com- pany, including John D. Rockefeller, Sr., John D. Archbold and H. H. Rog- ers, aro expected hereafter to leave to their juniors the task of handling the glant business which they founded. ‘What leads the street to hold these views {8 the recent decision of the directorate of the Amalgamated Cop- per company to cut down the output of the mines to one-half the normal. It is held that this is a departure from the policy which was pursued several years ago when the copper market was declining and that it signifies that the younger element is in control. AFTER THE PAPER TRUST. Publishers’ Takes Action. New York, Sept. 2..—At a speclal meeting held in this city the Ameri- can Newspaper Publishers’ association Instructed its committee on paper to bring to the attention of the president and the department of justice infor- mation concerning an alleged unlaw- ful comblnation of paper manufac- turers that has resulted, it is claimed, in.an artificlal stimulation of prices. The association also went on record as in favor of the immediate repeal of the tariff on printing paper and wood pulp imported from Canada. The reso- lutions further provide for an assess- ment upon the members to defray any expense Incurred by the association in assisting the government in any prose- oution that may be undertaken. 8t.

Woman Is Nurse, Bride and Widow Within a Few Hours, New York, Sept. ).—To have been & nurse and bride and a widow all Within a few hours is the unusual ex- perlence of Mrs. Alfred Adler of this city.

Milwaukee, Sept. )—The steamer Alaska, owned by the Anchor line and carrying a cargo of package freight, and the steamer Matthew Andrews of the Kinsman Transit line, with a cargo of coal, ran ashore during a fog north of Fox point, several miles north of Milwaukee. The lifesaving crew and a number of tugs are ren- dering all assistance possible. One hundred men are jettisoning the coal cargo of the Andrews. The vessels are sald not to be in great danger at present owing to the smooth water and absence of wind. The shore is very rocky, however, and if the steam- ers are not released may be pounded to pleces should a gale spring up. BISHOP IN ANANIAS CLUB. New Story of Fairbanks Cocktails De- nied at Oyster Bay.- Oyster Bay, N. Y., Sept. )—Be- cause of the widespread publicity glven the statement of Bishop Berry of Detroit that either President Roose- velt or Secretary Loeb and not Mr. Fairbanks was responsible for the cocktails served at the luncheon ten- dered them by the vice president at Indlanapolis Secretary Loeb has is- sued the following formal statement in denial: “The statement is too absurd to be given any credence. Neither the pres- ident nor his secretary either directly or indirectly ordered anything of any kind at the lunch in question or at any other lunch where they were Buests.” Railroad Men to Blame. Toronto, Ont,, Sept. .—The cor- oner's jury investigating the recent wreck on the Canadian Pacific railway at Caledon, in which seven people were killed and others injured, made its report during the day and directed the arrest of Engineer Hodge and Con- ductor Grimes.

The Hague, Sept. 2 .—All the heads of the varlous delegations present at the international peace conference met during the day under the presidency of M. Nelidoff and unanimously adopt- ed tbe following resolution in regard to the convening of future confer- ences: “The conference recommends to the powers the convocation of a third con ference within a period similar to that which elapsed between the former corferences, leaving the exact date to be fixed by common accord of the powers. The conference calls the at- tention of the powers to the necessity of having the work of the conference prepared a sufficient time before its moeting so that its deliberations may be taken with the indispensable au- thority and rapidity. “To attain this object the confer- ence thinks it very desirable that about two years before the probable date of convocation a preparatory confmittee be entrusted by the gov- ernments with the collection of the difterent propositions to be submitted to the conference and the gathering ot matters susceptible of belng embodied in international regulations and that the committee prepare a programme about which the governments will agree early enough to have it earnest- ly started in each country. The con- ference recommends that this com- mittee be also entrusted to propose a system of organization and procedure for the conference.” The resolution Wwill be submitted for approval to the plenary session to be held Sept. 21. NO MORE GREEN CONSULS Appointees Must Take Course Before Going Abroad, ‘Washington, Sept. 2 .—No more green consuls are to be sent abroad to represent America if the plans of the state department which have just been put in practice realize expecta- tions. Ever since the establishment of the consular service it has been customary to allow a newly appointed consul thirty days with pay before leaving for his post. A room in the department has been equipped as a complete working American consulate, suitable to transact the business of an American consul in any part of the world, civilized or uncivilized. Appointees are no longer permitted to spend that thirty days’ period in their own way, but are required to re- port every day at the state department for duty and to spend a certain num- ber of hours in this model consular office, recelving instructions and ac- quainting themselves with every prac- tlcal detall of a consul’s daily work The best of instruction is provided. LOGS WILL BE RELEASED Noted Cameron Dam: Dispute Sald to Have Been Settled. ‘Winter, Wis., Sept. 20.—The famous Dietz dam dispute has been settled.

Both the Chippewa Log and Boom company and John Dietz claimed the title to the land and Dietz defended the property against all com- ers, Three different sheriffs failed to arrest Dietz, who has gained national fame for his bold act in defying offi- cers sent against him. Democrats and Republicans Di- vide Oklahoma Offices, FORMER GET THE BEST OF IT Capture the Governorship and Legis- lature, Which Elects Two United States Senators, and Also Elect Two of the Five Congressmen. Oklahoma City, Okla., Sept. i)—Up to noon but few additional returns from Tuesday’s election had come in and neither Republican nor Demo- cratic party managers were in a posi- tion to make fresh estimates on the result. The reports so far received indicate that the constitution was adopted by a large majority, but the result of the vote on statewide prohibition is in doubt and may not be known for some time. It is claimed here that Thomas B. Ferguson, Republican ex-governor, had been elected to congress in the Second district over E. L. Fulton, Democrat. Other candidates for con- gress appear to have been elected as follows: Bird 8. McGuire, Republican, First district; Frank Hubbard, Repub- lican, Third district; C. D. Carter, Democrat, Fourth district; Scott Fer- ris, Democrat, Fifth district. Both sides claim the election of gov- WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO. Their Unceasing Work Keaps Us Strong and Healthy. All the blood in the body passes through the kidneys once every three minutes. The kidneys filter the blood. They work night and day. When healthy they remove about 500 grains of impure matter daily, wnen unhealthy some part of this impure matter is lett in the blood. This brings on many diseases and symptoms—pain in the back, headache, nervousness, hot, dry skin, rheumatism, gout, gravel, disorders of the eyesight and hearing, dizziness, irregular heart, debility,drowsiness, dropsy, deposits in the urine, etc. But’if you keep the filters right you will have no trouble with your kidneys, James Bridges, living on Third St., Bemidji, Minn,, says: ¢I am so glad to have the opportunity of recommending Doan’s Kidney Pills to others, as I know them to be a reliable remedy. At the time I began their use, I “was feeling very miserable, There was a severe pain in the small of my back, the kidney secreticns were dark and unnatural in appearance, and I had great pain while passing them. 1 saw Doan’s Kidney Pills highly recommended for such com- plaints and procored a box at the Owl Drug Store. They helped me so much that 1 procured a second supply and the reélief I received was wonderfull. Iam now entirely free from pain and my kidneys are more normal in action.” For sale by all dealers.

These men had hardly heard of the smash- Ing defeat given the measure before they began to figure on what can be done in the near future for Chicago. That this clty cannot be governed satisfactorily under present laws was the general sentiment. In the camp of those Who helped to tread the meas- ure in the dust there was a disposi- tion to lend a hand to the framing of a better one. The charter was defeated at Tues- day’s speial election by a majority of over 62,000. Little more than half of the registered vote was cast, final fig ures showing 59,446 ballots for the charter and 122,054 against it. The total vote polled was 181,500 out of a registered vote of 361,063, Ends Life Like Companion, ‘Webster City, Ia, Sept. “—Ross Hendricks, aged twenty-six years, a well known circus man and actor of this city and a companion of Carl Pressley, who committed suicide so spectacularly in the park here two weeks ago after burning a roll of bills amounting to $2,500, shot and killed himself at Estherville.
