The cool weather of the last few
weeks has been of treat benefit to
the trow ing crops, and everything
indicates a fair crop in Sherman
county. Haying has started and
the .yield is up to the usual stan­
dard.
A man and his family going
home late in Portland last week
found a burglar ransacting his
home; he secured a shotgun and
then called the police while he
guarded the premises and kept the
burglar corraled. W hen arrested
the man was found to have con­
siderable jewelry and 8 watches
on him. Possibly it can be said
of this burglar that he has lots of
time on his hand/.
Sherman county has a lively
sheriff in J. C. McKean; when he
can't get in action himself he pro­
ceeds to start things. The latest
was a horse near the head of
Shearer grade, it scared at his auto,
ran through barb wire fences three
times, by count, and got off with
only twenty-five tiny skin cuts.
T h e rig was not damaged, the
single tree iron being pulled loose
and freeing the horse.
Colonel Harvey, of Harper's
Weekly, who several weeks ago
printed editorial predictions that
Senator Borah would be the re­
publican presidential nominee in
1916 is of that opinion still, not
withstanding it runs counter to
many who believe otherwise. It
may be interesting to observe that
Col. Harvey was the first editor
of rational repute to advocate the
election of W oodrow Wilson as
president.

President W oodrow W . is going
to force his new currency plan
upon the attention of congress and
undoubtedly something will come
of it. But the main engrossing
thought for the Sherman county
farmer, when talking of the latest
currency plans, is whether it will
make it any easier to get real
money from the other fellow for
fits wheat.
Joe Hendricks has two miles of
woven wire fencing in place on file
Goffin ranch, recently purchased
by Archie Mason from the D . S.
Cameron Realty Co., and ex­
pects to have four miles more
completed before harvest and will
put op* three miles more after
harvest, making nine miles in all
that will put the farm entirely un­
der hog tight fencing. Joe recent­
ly made a deal by which M r.
Mason became owner o f ten head
of brood bows , purchased from
