Moooy,sa,s.

Moody County Enterprise: Despite his
assertions to the contrary, some of our es.
teemcd contemporaries insist upon consider.
ing Col. G. G. Moody, of Yankton, candi-
date for the delegateship. We do not know
that he could be induced to allow the use Of
his name in this Connection, but with his
marked ability and long experience in ter
ritorial affairs he could doubtless render
signal service to Dakota interests at the
national capital. Moody county was named
in honor of this gentleman-a circumstance
that at once reflects credit upon both the
colonel and our infant commonwealth.
Elk Point Courier: We understand thai
it is the intention Of the people o. Yankto n
county to trot Col. G. c. Moody out upon
the congressional race course. The gallant
Col. can number his friends by the thous-
and thr oughout the territory and will make
a good fight, and if nominated by this repub-
lican convention would be elected by good
round majority. We are informrd that
Judge Brookings, who opposed him six years
ago, and number Of his friends are in favor
with the movement and will give the Col. a
hearty support.
Vermillion Republican,: Col. G. c. Moody
is squarely on the track, or so We are inform
ed, for delegate to congress. We understood
he has perfectly strong backing In Yankton
and expects to use Benefits strength in the
convention for himself, as it is concluded by
many that Bennett has no chance of a f,omi-
nation.

Speedily leaves the surface of teeth upon
which the cleansing and prcservative in
tluence of sOZODONT is daily cxcrted.
No form of decay can infest a set Of
"ivorics" upon which it is used. 1t has,
moreover, a most refreshing effect upon
the mouth, in which it leaves a very
agreeable taste, besides rendering the
breath fragrant. If the mouth be rinscd
with it after smoking, the taste of the
tobacco is entirely dissipated. AS an

not too highly be cxtolled. Sold by

and gave an entertainment which was wit
messed by over thousand people. The ring
entertainment was good, notwithstanding
the drawback of an intensely hot night.

troupe acquitted themselves credi,ably. The
performance was repeated this afternoon
and this evening another entertainment
will be given, the last night in Yankton.

ANSWERING FooL.--Let me, tell a
Dutch story right here, because 1t comes
from Dutchman in the eastern part Of
Pennsylvania, and must De IL "
The Dutchman was never ashamea 81 bis
religion. In his neighborhood there was
a skeptic who said, "You can't believe
anything you cant understand" and so
some Of the better class Of people asked
the Dutchman If he would not have a
conversation with him. He said, "Yes,
If you tink best"
"Have you any objections 10 the
neighbors coming Ia l'
''No, shust Is you tink best"
So they made the appointment, and
everybody was there. One old gentle
man came in and laid by his bat and
was introduced to the skeptic. and he
began suddenly by saying "Veli, now
you look here. ] pleefs the Bible
what you pleefs ~
Said he 81 don't believe anything ]
can't understand"
/ was mighty glad meet you. | ask
you some questions. The odder day i
was riding along the road and meet
von dog. and that dog he had von Of his

der one he stand down, so. Now, Wy
wss dat :"
snow, that was very unlucky just
then, very unhandy. He either had to
prove that the dog did not have one ear
standing DIP and The other down, or else
say he did not believe il. So be said,
"I don't know"
40 then you are not so very smart
after all. / ask you anoder question.

yer patch vas his sheep, and dere came

Now that was as bad as the other,
because the same perplexisx- arose.
He had TO prove there was wool on
the backs of the pigs or hair on the
backs of the sheep, and he couldn't tell
why, and therefore he had no business
to believe it. Finally. he said, Il don't
know"
"fsll," he said, "you are not halt 50
smart as you tink you are. Now, ask
you anoder question. Do you vleeve
dere is q God !"
"No. don't believe any such non
