E d ITOK G la YTOH IjNmCl'RNDKNT;—1 wonhl like to in.sert in your paper a few remarks in regard to Dakota. '’I’lmes are beginning to get lively; the busy son will .soon lie hoic, and it is enconr- ngeing to see every one making jircpaia- buildinp lion.s lo meet it. Some arc Iniilding ad- ilitiims lo Hieir houses, and others .are raising granaries, ft is rather odd many of us who came from abu.sb country like Canada or (he frozen bound himl of Norway, before wc are eiglitceii inoiiHis in Hie Bed Bivei Valley lo be obliged to put up a building of from 2,000 to 4,000 bushels capacity lo .store our crops in. Yes sir, a man can raise more grain here ott of forty acres of our prairie land than he could olf of many farms of 100 to 200 acres in Ontario. It seems strange but -Ivuo, that so many men chop and log and pick-stone in n. bush country and h,y g e t s h is farm c lita icd u p bo I. o ^i-rtainly Ihinoiv to put lliiillld t.ako ofT la l!io that .s)ie did take it, r or accidenlallY? l to show that iiaymie gave it to her, .stiil (be iirevailing opinion in ler Airs. Iloov- ey or Stokes ndininistcied Ibe poison to her, althoiigli there is b u t .slight evidence to form such an opinion on. T'lc lirst witaes.s sworn .Saturday before the. coroner’s .jury was Prol. Hill of the high school of tlii.s city. lie had made an aiiidjTsis of the stoin.ach, using stand ard tests, ail'd had found large qnnnlitics of mercury suflicieiit to produce death, and had no he.sitation in snying that lh.at was the cause of her death. Fr(>m what the professor found in her .stomach it was very Vleii’r -Hint ‘Ueillier nrsenie. or strychnine had been ii.scd to cnn.se the death of Airs. .Sl.okes. ft will he reiiK'inbcred Hi.'it fUoke.stold a Times representative that iherc was iied bug poksoii in the lioiisc, it Iiaving been procured Inst summer for the pur- ])o.sc of killing the bugs that infesied Hie bouse.. TIic yoiuig' nmn Stokes when being swoiii last Tuc.sday, although in n dniii.kcn coildilion, told about the bed- Inig poison, \iTiicii'lie said was in n small vial, in wiiich his mother u.scd to put Slick and then' put -the poison in tlie holes wlicro Hic beg.s Aveib. It is Hionght by some that a portion of tind .same (loi- soii was either taken liy or given Ic Airs. Blokes, ns no trace can be found where any of the family lias bought any ]Kiison at a reeoiit date. Floin tlii.s ver sion of the-ca.sa it would seem that the poison was not pniclmsed for the jnir- ])osc of heing given to hni, Imt foraiioHi- cr ])iirposo Tlic next witnc.ss called was om. the. jury, who had visited the Stokes sidenee. after the session of Tuesday and found several hottle.s, among wliicli a iniit bottle whloh.«W!is about a quarter full of .some kiiui of fluid, which, might be taken for whiskey or which iniglil; be given to a person on purpose, and at the saiVie time the one taking it would not discover the dilference until he liad tasted or d iank it. . The next wililc.ss culled was William .Stokes .Ir., who was perfectly .sober, well dressed and presented a miicli Iiel- tcr ap]iearnnce tlian on bis previous amimiHon. Notbiiig of .any iinjioi lance was sworn to Iiy him except lie was quite po.si’iive Hmt bis faSber or Alls. Hoovey hud given lii.s muHicv nothing c.\cei>t wbi.sky, H ic 11 .ilk-punch and castor oil, which his fatiirr admits he ii.ad given licr. Youug Stokes ,seems to have thought great deal of his nmthcr; he says .she was the be.st friend he ever had, and seems to feel her los.s more Hiat his fath er. Considering hiis mental comlition and the f e y ho lias, l/eon_ brought up, he i.l»j'ict of pity, BU.l wlial- u.se ma<U.i.u.iy to ]>iit iiiiimd take ofT ever is the result of Uni nre.sciU iiivesli- laKi Ins ciop he is nil old man and so lacke.l with Iiard work that wlieu he. is over tak en with old age hi.s pleasure is past.

'I’aUing Hie.se things into coiisideraiiou i.s it. not strange Hiat every acac of tlii.s fertile valley is not in croji an outlay of .$5 wiHi a dead ecitaiiity of Hiirly bu.shcl.s of Hu; liiiesl wheat ill Hie West in return, aiul probab ly forty which lie can readily sell at bis door at; $1.00 to $1.35 per bu.sliei; why writes a farmer friciul of mine from Hie Ea.steru .state.':, if Ou,' Iialf of wlmt your papera sny .atjout the advamiiges llcy alTords were Iriie, tlie enlirc llnitcd i$tates would soon bo there; you c.imiot make me believe that the govern ment would give 480 acres of laud wbieh will yiehl 30 (o 40 Ini.sliels of wheat lo Hie acre.
