A raid was made early yesterday morn

Something less than a mlllfoh other' pris

but for tha flrat time tha question 1 wa
brought out yesterday what kind of
criminal charge can ba legaly iustained
by the accusation of "disorderly." A care
ful review of all the city ordinance ex
tant and state statute failed to 'disclose
anything daflnlng and punishing uoh an
offense. It wu therefor no misdemeanor
under either city or state law. It wh de
cided however, to hold Mr.! Metcalf upon
a charge of keeping a disorderly house and
an Information to that effect wa prepared
by City Attorney Klmbal.
It was further agreed that tha city solici
tor should prepare an ordinance covering
the term disorderly,' and submit it for
approval of the city council at the next
meeting. Mr. Metcalf had put up a bond
of $50 and the other $10 for their appear
ance in police court yesterday morning.

Still
Gilbert C. Taylor, many year a resident
of Council Bluff and once city street kuMt
visor, has returned from Canada,- thankful
that he did not find a buyer last spring for
hi comfortable home at 708 East Pierce
street In February Mr.- Taylor purchased
160 acre of land in the Alberta province for
$20 an acre. He left here in the early part
of March to Improve hi land. . On the lit
of April he sold it for $30 an acre, making
a profit of 11,600 In lea than two months.
He immediately invested hi profit and
original capital in two quarter sections, and
then took a conspicuous part In the work
of building up the country. lie 1 car
penter and easily made $6 or more a day
at hi trade and had sufficient work - In
sight to last a year. Throughout April the
country continued to boom in the most
remarkable manner, with thousands of
houses being erected, by the new American
settler, and mechanic In1 the building
trade receiving almost any price asked
for their work.
But the boom suddenly collapsed about
the last ot June. Not a drop of rain had
fallen since April. The government and
private irrigating ditches ceased to irrigate
and by the 1st of July there wa not a
green thing, Taylor say, In a territory of
hundred of mile extent. All the crop
wera a complete failure. People of limited
resources began leaving the country In
June, and when Taylor left, about July 1,
he said the exodus was becoming almost a
panic.
'If they have a hard winter those who
could not get away except by walking or
wagon will have a serious time," said Mr,
Taylor. "I kept enough ot my wages out
of my land Investment to pay my way
home, but there were thousands who did
not and many were in a pitiable condition
when I left. They say they have had the
worst drouth there that hts been known and
it is feared that much of the farm stock
will perish by starvation. But I still have
faith In the country and I believe fortunes
will be made by taking over tha holdings
of settlers who are forced to leave the
country to escape starvation. The flight
from Canada this summer, and which has
Just now commenced, will be one of the
historic phenomena of the year.'

Two Hours' Rain
Feeds Thirsty
Fields in Iowa
Steady . Poor Does Immense Good to
Farms, and Corn Crop Prom
ises Well.
Council Bluff and Pottawattamie county
were Visited by a rain early yesterday
morning that wa so generous and so
evenly distributed that farmer and garden
er estimate It value to be quite close to
$1,000,000. The rain fell In a teady pour for
nearly two hour with no atmospheric dis
turbances whatever. In only one place In
the county wa the rush of water greater
than could be Instantly' absorbed by the
thirsty earth.
In the vicinity of Galllatt. twelve miles
east of Council Bluff the storm waa almost
of the nature of a cloudburst, and many of
the smaller stream were forced out of
their banks, but In all other parta of the
county, according to report received yes
terday afternoon, the excess waa not suf
ficient to caui more than a little ripple
in the bottom of long-dry water courses.
Although It rained quite hard In Council
Bluffs, but little water flowed over the
paved streets, In few places' In sufficient
quantities to . wash the dust from the
gutters. I
The rain will be of great benefit to the
corn crop, and the indication are that
Pottawattamie 1910 yield will make a new
record. The acreage planted Is the largest
In the history of the county. The progress
of the crop has not been retarded to any
appreciable extent by the dry weather,
owing to the perfect cultivation It haa re
ceived and the extraordinarily fine condi
tion of the soil at planting time. According
to Prof. Crossley. the Ame Agricultural
college expert, the condition of the crop
In a large part of the county la close to
the 100 per cent mark for the period of the
eeaon. The root of the plant have pene
trated to an' unusual depth In the soft soil,
enabling the growing stalks to withstand a
degree of drouth that would have destroyed
the crop at this stage last year.
The. berry and garden product around
town have not fared so well. The black
berry and raspberry crop will be almost a
total .' failure.- - The berries have dried on
the plant and but little revival can be
expected from the rain. The grape crop,
which wa limited to the third output of
blossoms, a part of which only escaped the
April and May freezes, will be greatly cur
tailed by the drouth. The blackrot, birds
eye rot and several other kind of harmful
fungi that inflicted thousand of dollar'
worth of damage on the vineyard here
last season, ha been almost entirely elim
inated by the long dry spell.

Bluffs-Omaha Grape Growers' association.
ys the crop of fruit of all kind w)ll be
the shortest this year that the association
has' handled during Its more than twenty
years' experience. There will not be 1
peach in the , county, and not enough ap
pies to supply one-thousandth part of the
home demand. Tha strawberry- crop waa
only about one-tenth the normal yield,
while gooseberries and currant will b a
total failure. . The association last year
handled more than $130,000 worth of fruit
but the receipts, this year will be only a
small fraction ot that amount.

congress and the National Conservation
association. The announcement was the out
come of a conference between the warring

was a concession made by the executive
council to a committee headed by Governor

senting the business Interest ot St. Paul
and Minneapolis, which demanded that the
administration be accorded more place on
the program than wa contemplated by the
followers of former Forester Glfford Pln
ehot. who : 1' president of the National

The conference resulted from . the an
nouncement of ' a tentative program ot

fornia, Senator Dolllver of Iowa, Congress
man Madison of Kansas, former Secretary
of the Interior Garfield and Attorney

controversy, would be the peakera.
The name of President Taft wa conplo
uously absent. In return,, the Plnehot fac
tion charged that the Minnesota men were
trying to Inject politic Into the congree
to secure antl-conservatlon speaker and In
general were trying to run the congress
along the lines of Interest of Jame J.
Hill and the western governor who hold
to the "Ute' . right policy" In the con-

Postal Savings
Helps Foreigners,
Says De Gravy
Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
Declares Deposit System Will Be
Great Benefit
1. V. De Grew, fourth assistant post
master general, while in Omaha tor a few
mlniUe yesterday afternoon, made several
observations regarding the recent postal
savings bank legislation, Mr. De Graw de
clares the" adoption of this system will
provs of incalculable worth to people who
have only , small amount to deposit, and
will especially Induce children to lay aside
tbalr nickel and dime where before they
spent them foolishly.
Mr. D Graw stated that another way
In which th postal bank will be helpful
wa In th money matter of th thousands
of foreigner who each year send money
through th mall or have small amounts
to deposit. Uader present condition for
eigner are aa a rule afraid to trust their
meager savings to th banks. Every large
postofflce In the country haa hundreds ot
application for postal money ordera drawn
by foreigner payable to themselves. They
believe they are safe in trusting the gov
ernment with their funds and lgnorantly
pay th larg - percentage which money
order necessitate rather than deposit their
money In the bank.
Under the postal savings system It Is
estimated that a large majority ot these
people will be brought to depositing their
money on th same principle that they now
buy money orders because they believe
their saving are most secure in th keep
ing ot Uncle Sam.
Mr. De Graw went slightly Into detail on
the method to be used, although every
thing la not yet definitely settled. A com
mission on ways and means, appointed by
the postmaster general, is now working out
final plans. The idea to be followed, as
explained by Mr. De Graw, Is In substance
follow:
Upon payment of 10 cent a person re
ceives a card upon which Is a special 10
cent stamp. Upon each small payment
thereafter stamps are placed on the card
tor the amount deposited, up to $1. When
$1 haa been so deposited th card la turned
in and a deposit book, similar to those used
in banks todity, 1 Issued to the depositor,
with an initial deposit of the $1.
When the deposit book is Issued the card
ia no longer used. From then on deposits
are made In the same manner as In banks,
any amount being accepted. A limit of
deposit 1 placed at $500. However, when
tne depositor ha saved $500 he may with
draw It and make a new start No one
person may have more than $500 on deposit
at on time. Interest will bs paid at the
rate of I per cent. "
