The Cleveland Herald suggests Gen. w. T.
Sherman for 1880. All right, and give us
Secretary Sherman on the same ticket. This

Officers OF L. F. g. D. Il. r. Co.

At the recent meeting of the dlrec~
tors of the Little Falls & Dakota Rail-
road Company at Sank Centre, Hon.
N. Richardson was chosen Vice Pres
ident Of the Company E. P. Bar
mum, Secretary; and Il. W. Stone,
Treasurer. Hon. Geo. L. Becker was
chosen President, but it was not
known whether he would accept the
position or not. In reference to this
the Stevens County Tribune says:
s:Hon. Geo. L. Becker informed one Of
our citizens recently, that he would ac-
cept the office of the President Of the Lit
tie Falls 6, Dakota r. r. Co., on condi>
ton that there was to be no salary at
tached to the position He further stlp-
ulated that he would not accept the po-
sition unless the other officers also donat-
ed their services until such time as the
road was in active operation.' This kind
of talk has the true clear ring in it, and
We doubt not but the other officers will
also generously respond. Gen. Becker's
name heading the list of officers, would
be a pillar Of strength to the young cor
poratlon."
That has the right sound. Let the
officers work Tor nothing until the
road is in active operation, and it will
be easier to sell stock and get the re-
4auea tsa PEI esut paid down.

A New Offer,

We desire to IN crease circulation of
the Transcript to the extent Of several
hundred copies the present season, and
for that purpose we will send it to any
resident of Morrison or adjoining coun-
ties who will agree to pay the subscrip-
ton price on or before the LIST day Of
next December. There are very
many new settlers in this part
the State who have not yet raised
their first CROP, and we believe that
a large portion of them will glad
ly avail themselves Of this oppor~
tunity to subscribe for a first class
county paper without paying cash
down for it. Attention is invited to
the fact that the price Of the Trans
cript is only 81 so per annum. Our
readers in this part of the State are
requested to make this offer known to
such of their eighbors as are not al
ready subscribers; and persons desir~
ing to accept this offer will only have
to send us a line saying so, with the
name and postofh,e address plainly
written. We will state, also, that the
Transcript will be considerably im>
proved, that more reading matter set
in smaller type than heretofore will
appear each week, and that foreign
| advertisements of every description
| will be excluded from our local pages
as soon as the time expires on
those now running. In two or three
months all the old reading matter
type in our Office will be replaced
by new BREWER, which will increase
the beauty and usefulness Of our
sheet, and cause it to represent
better the progressive spirit that per-
vades the business circles of Little
Falls. And now we desire to express
our profoundcst thanks to the business
men Of this town, without whose lib>
and generous patronage these improves
ments would be impossible. We be-
lieve that 10 no other town in the
State, Of the size of Little Falls. have
the business men advertised 80 liberal
ly in their local paper, and we are
confident that no publisher has more
earnestly desired and worked to
render such advertising profitable to
his patrons and to his town. And
what makes US specially thankful to
our patrons is the fact that we have
not had to urge or "drum" to secure
their patronage, and all favors that
we have received have come wholly
from their own free will

We are glad to learn that Leon
Houde, in company with partner, in~
tends to build steam Touring mill at
Little Falls this season. He has not yet
secured partner, but leading business
men in St. Paul and Minneapolis adj
wise him to build the proposed mill,
and they offer to give him the use of
their names as references in case he
desires to secure a partner, and to
give him all the encouragement they
consistently can. AS he can secure the
hearty recommendation of some of the
best business men and leading public
officers in the State, there is no doubt
that he can readily obtain a reliable
business partner with sufficient means.
The proposed mill will be Of great benz
eft to this town and county ; and in
connection with his large store, will
give him very extensive and lucra
tive business.

Somebody's child is dyiDg-dying with
the flush of hope on his young
face and an indescribable yearning
to live and take an honored place 10 the
world beside the companions of his youth.
And somebody's mother is thinking Of
of the time when that dear face will be
hidden where no ray OF hope can brighten
it-when her heart and home will be left
desOlate-because there was no cure fol-
consumption. Reader. if the child be your
neighbours take this comforting word tc
the mothers heart before 1t is TOO late
Tell her that consumption is durable, that
men are living to-day, aged, robust men
whom the physicians pronounced incurable
at the age of twenty because one lung
had been almost destroyed By the disease.

a most efficient alternative for separating
