THE TOWN UNITED
During the past two weeks the
Chronicle man interviewed practi
cally every business house in the
city with a view of securing co
operation in the coming county
seat fight, and we were more
than pleased with the result.
The town stands united likes
and dislikes are going to be cast
aside and a generl engagement
started all along the line for
Beach for the county seat."
During the next ten issues this
paper intends to put forth its
besf efforts along that line and
we are pleased to have the solid
support of the business men back
of us- Our enemies may contin
ue their fight against us if they
choose, but if they do they are
going to be entirely ignored for
the next ten weeks, at least, un
til the county seat battle is over.
We would like to have them join
us, and forget their troubles,
during the campaign—and boost
fcr Beach. We extend them the
invitation here-
During our canvass on
ly three Beach firms, Lovell
Bros., Wm. Rosenberg and Nic
Weinacht, refused to assist or co
operate with the farmers paper
in the campaign, but we believe
it will be their los3 rather than
ours.
Because Beach has a few un
desirable citizens is no reason
why anyone should work against
the town because the Chronicle
is published in Beach is no reason
why our enemies should work
for Sentinel Butte, and because
the county seat at Beach is going
to benefit some of your compet
itors more than it will you, is no
reason for you to be a knocker.
It is a time when we all should
join hands, just as we did in the
county,1 division campaign—and
let the town traitor do his worst
as he did to no avail.

DOLLAR WHEAT
According the press dis
patches this week wheat is the
highest it has been for four years
and has advnced 33 cents per
bushel since Europe went to war.
Yesterday wheat was $1.25 in
Chicgo and was $1.05 in Beach
During the afternoon it drop
ped 1 cent and today it dropped
4 cents bringing it an even dollar
today in the local market.
In the wheat pit at Chicago
the prices jumped from 7 to 8
cents from one day to the next
and the excitement on the board
of trade, the dispatch says, ex
ceeded anything described in
Frank Norris' "The Pit" If a
man wants to gamble there is
plenty of opportunity now on the
wheat market and he won't have
to be in the game taiany days to
win or lose. It was generally
considered that flax was the most
dangerous grain to gamble
against, but since the war broke
out in Europe wheat has put flax
in the background and no one
knows what it will do next.
To sell wheat at a dollar has
always been considered good
business but in spite of this local
men have bought large quanti
ties this week with' the local mar
ket over a dollar.
The present action of the wheat
market only goes to prove
that the price i9 controlled by
the grain manipulators and not
by supply and demand- Of course
everyone says the war causes the
high price, and indirectly it does,
but the rise and fall of eight cents
in a single day is caused by the
gamblers buying and selling on
the various boards of trade and
not by the war—or the number
of men killed in Europe in the
present crisis.
fapan declared war on Ger
many, Austria declared war on
Japan while Turkey, Greece and
Italy are mobilizing their armies
and getting ready to join in the
world war. These are some of
the happening of the past week.
If Mexico will only get agoin,
again a few revolutions start in
South America, the trusts in the
United States would probably
find excuse to raise the price
again on sugar.
Think well of your town and
your town will think well of you.

CORN THE SAFEST CROP
Th.'s year has demonstrated be
yond a reasonable doubt that
corn is not only a safe crop but a
profitable cne- Corn this year
spells financial salvation for more
than one North Dakota farmer.
1 he perfection of the corn
crop is a prelude to divers lied
and intensified farming. This
state is gravitating slowly toward
both. A year like this, when on
ail sides the beautiful stand of
grain seemed to spell a bumper
crop, has its lessons, which in the
long run means real progress. It
is the corn crop that has come to
the rescue in "many parts of the
state.
Although the Slope country is
fortunate in yields of all forms of
crop, this year is demonstrating
more potently than ever what
can be done with corn.
The next important question
in the selection of seed. Thomas
Cooper, director of the North
Dakota Agricultural station, is
taking special precautions this
fall fcr the curing of seed corn.
A great deal of attention will be
given by the department during
the first part of September to
seed corn- Last year through the
efforts of the field agents, 25,000
bushels of seed corn were select
ed and cured in the state. It is
hoped that this year will double
the aount.
Good corn should be seleoted
early and with special
Through the various seed
weeks and other agencies of pub
licity, the farmers have been
awakened to the necessity in this
line.

The success of the corn crop in
this state depends upon the se
lection of early varieties and vari
eties adapted to local conditions.
—Bismarck Tribune.
OUR DUTY PLAN
The duty of the United States
is plain in the unfortunate crisis
that i3 embroiling all Europe.
Neutrality in all things is now and
probably will continue the watch
word. Our money should not
go across the seas to help finance
or prolong the carnage.
If American banking houses
extend credit to France, they can
not deny a German, English or
Russian loan. Loaning one na
tion only would be a breach of
neutrality, and to loan all indis
criminately would lower our
sense of duty in this great con
troversy-
Inability to finance large war
loans will have a decided effect
in shortening the war and that is
a consummation devoutely to be
wished.
On the other hand, it is self
evident that the United States
needs all her cash reserves to fi
nance her own commerce and to
move the crops which are now
ready to be put into the various
markets of the world.—Ex
hange.
Should Sugar Prices Go Up
The Sugar Trust is already out
with an advance sheet explaining
that, because of the outbreak of
war in Europe, prices (must go up.
Immediately prices began to soar
even higher than they usually do
in fruit canning time. The circular
does not explain, however, that,
although the greater part of the
world's sugar is produced by the
warring countries, only about one
per cent of what our country uses
comes from them. Don't you
really think the argument pretty
far feched? Dealers, warehouse
men, all who had a supply of
stock, certainly were not effect
ed by the rise which is to come
by and by, and may have a
chance now to explain to the
United States district attorneys,
and possibly to some grand jur
ies, just how it calme about.
It seems to us a better plan not
to raise the prices of necessties
until they come up naturally.—
Fargo, (N. D-.) Courier News.
They should have no chance to
explain. There is no explana
tion necessary, their act is noth
ing short of criminal and should
be dealt with as such.—Baker
Press.

fused to admit Ben Whitehead's
publication, "The State," to the

where he is said to be getting
out a periodical on the lines of
Jim Jam Jems. "Col." Ben
Whitehead had a great career in
North Dakota. He was able to
fool part of the people much of
the tilme.—Dickinson Press-
