Some of the underlying factors | behind this advance have been de-| creased supplies coupled with an unusual demand from all sources, due probably to the prospect of de- creased receipts for the coming fall market.

Grassers eased off about the same extent, the decline extend- | ing to practically all of the stocker and feeder type as well, Dull and practically lifeless market for | dressed lambs were reflected in the| live trade, values on beef dropping virtually every day with ene prices averaging fully $1.08 to $1.3 below a week ago. eae Best cattle at the close was 66 head of 833 pound yearlings “at Grassers mostly $5.50 to Grassers mostly $5.50 to She-stock closed, $3.50 to Canners and cutters $2.25 to} Bologna bulls $3.75 to $4.25. | calves steady, practical top| | $8.00.

MacMillan's “Bowdoin” in the artic from the east coast to the west. It is a surprising feature of the amateur radio tests that have been famous schooner sailed northward for further arctic exploration. While the vessel sailed up the coast of Greenland, Donald Mix, its radio operator, was in good two-way ‘contact with amateurs in the eastern part of the United States. At a aratt farther north, however, the signals began to be picked up on coast and the eastern amateurs lost contact with Mix. This condition existed through all last winter, although at times ar teurs at other points succeeded in picking up short messages from Mix. For nearly seven months reliable contact was maintained, while, in- termittent signals were received dur- ing the rest of the time. With the approach of daylight in the arctic signals from Mix have) continued to fall off, except for an occasional “‘all’s well.” Contact is expected to be renewed soon when MacMillan starts for home, GREEK HAIR STYLES Paris, July 26.—Parisian. women are replacing shingled hair with a sort of Greek headdress, which con- sits of a band around the head, forc- ing all the hair back.

W. Pusch, of the tax department of the Northern Pacific, who is visit- ing these counties as the represen- tative of taxpayers. The decreases are :being made, however, by the county boards gen- crally without’ any requests ex- pressed at the budget hearings, or assistance, from business men, farm- ers or other taxpayers, according to Mr. Pusch, who has been the sole representative of a taxpayer in most counties. The saving that may be made from suggestions advanced by his long study of the tax siv- uation, however, are greater to the general public than the Northern | Pacific Railway, which he represents. Mr. ally made this year, Pusch believes it is especi- important to have low levies With good crops many farmers who are back in taxes will pay them. If the levies are increased there may be just enough. difference to make it im= possible for him to do so, he said. The railroad, he declared, is more interested in having farmers on the land than the cut in taxes to bene- fit it. West of River High Many counties west of the river are still high in their levies, Mr. Pusch has found. Of 10 counties ex- amintd west of the tot Missouri, the annual charge for interest and s eight counties east of the river the total charge is but $87,000. Yet, his examination showed, levies west of the river for general expenses gen- erally are higher in proportion to counties east of the river, some of which have no bond issues, There are many ways to cut ex- penses without impairing the county. government, he believes. Roads is one. In some counties graded roads have been built where they are sel- dom used. One commissioner in- formed him of a graded road in this county on which he said a whee had not turned for six months. De- mands of people of one district for roads, believing some other district has been getting an advantage, has ‘caused useless expense, he said. He urges that’ road expense be segre- gated by commissioners’ district so any such argument may be answered. Some Net Levies’ _ Some of the net levies, as pub- lished in budgets or finally approv- ed, in this territory follow; Emmons county $70,000, excluding unorgan- ized road districts; Grant $115,000 Me- Lean $94,966; Wells $131,813; Bur- leigh $153,348, Mr, Pusch expected to ask the Morton county board today the Wells county board. The North- ern Pacific operates in 32 counties Last year, Mr. Pusch said, he ap- peared before five boards and got cuts in levies totalling $191,000, and in those five counties he was the only taxpayer present to ask for economy. Others wanted some spec- ial appropriation, The Northern Pacific benefited by about one-fifth of this amount, and general tax- payers about four-fifths, he said. Pair Held To District Court For Manslaughter Jamestown, N. D., July 26.—Frank and Cora Funk were ordered held to the district court to answer to the charge of manslaughter by Jus- tice J. A, Murphy on ‘their prelim- inary im his court Friday. Mrs. Funk was released on her own rec- ognizance but bonds in the amount of $3,000 were demanded of Mr. Funk who was unable to furnish satisfactory bonds to that amount. The principal witness for the state, Mel Crow, was also remanded to jail being unable to furnish’ bonds in the amount of $1,000 asked to guarantee his. appearance for the trial in rict court. The testimony upon which the de- fendants were held was to the effect gaged in making a “batch of moonsine” in the farm house occupied by the wit- ness Mel Crow ,and that in taking the boiler still from the stove while Mrs. Funk and Mel Crow were both in the room, Funk dropped it. In striking the floor the contents of the boiler were spashed out thru the hole in the top, where the coil had been attached, and flooded a- cross the floor to where the Funk baby was sitting thereby. scalding it to such an extent that it died during the night from the effects. The evi- dence shows that the child was brot into Jamestown and to the Funk home hefe before dical attention was given it. Neither of:.the defendants. took the stand in the preliminary hear- ing.

To the farmers especially, it assures lower prices for farm im- plements, and to all consumers it assures lower costs of steel and gteel products, and lessens public expense, because steel plays an im- portant*part in public building and roadway construction. The decision also gives to every community in the country its in- dustrial rights which should accrue to it from geographical location, and this means that there will be a broadening of industry and great- er prosperity for all parts of the country, instead of the restriction of prosperity in the steel industry to the city of Pittsburgh and indus- trial towns in its vicinity. Unless this decision is appealed by the stecl mills, it will be final, and “Pittsburgh Plus” will be defi- nitely a thing of the past. We do not believe the mills will ask the U. S. courts to overturn the decis- ion for the newspapers of the coun- try have been almost a unit against the practice, and a continued fight for it by the steel mills would, in all probability, alienate public good will and. invite drastic regulation of the industiy by the government. To this result you have contributed in an important way, and for this we again wish to thank you earnestly. Very truly yours, W. E. McCullum Secretary. No. Dak.
