1t would take but dollar or so from
our business men to raise cash enough
to pay the expense of making display
of our products at the Bismarck and
State fairs. County pride ought to do
it without urging, andfor the amount it
would cost there is no advertisement
which would pay SO well. In fruit
alone a display could be made that
would pay. Other counties are doing
this, and if nothing is done here we
lose grand opportunity of advertis-
ing which will not be regained this
year. Let Us take hold of the matter,
and get for ONCE proper display of
our splendid blooded stock, our prolific
wheat and corn fields, our choice fruit
and vegetables. ft would be worth
thousands of dollars as an advertising
medium, and would give US big boom
for emigration next sumReg.

lieving suffering, and often saving life.
The protection it affords, by its timely

makes it an invaluable remedy to be
kept always on hand in every home.

will. From their knowledge Of its

The Kansas Republicans, true to
their record, have come out with a
strong positive platform which is a
model of conciseness and definiteness.
They declare themselves unqualifi ed
ly Gin favor of the prohibition of the
manufacture or sale of intOXica ting
liquors as beverage, and pledge"
themselves "to such addi tional legiS-
lation as shall secure the rigid enforce
ment of the constitutional provision
upon this subject i'm all parts of the
State;" they request the next legisla-
ture to submit an amendment to the
constitution of the State securing to
wofneI the right of suffrage; they de-
mand the enactment of laws prevent
ing unjust discrimination by railroad
companies, and providing for freight
and passenger tariffs that will protect
the interests of the public and the inn
mediate and strict enforcement of all
State laws for the regulation of rail-
ways; they endorse President Arthur's
veto of the River and Harbor bill, and
they nominate upon this platform
Governor st. John; thus fulfilling the
prediction of Mr.. Neal Dow contained
in letter which we publish in anoth-
er column. This platform is the most
hopeful and refreshing statement that
has come from any political conven-
ton for a long time past. 1t makes no
evasions, iudulges in no generaliza-
tons; it does not attempt to resuscitate
dead issues; it meets present issues
fairly and squarely. 1t is not per-
feet platform for national party, but
it is hopeful as an indication of the re-
entrance of conviction into political
Union.

During July the public debt was re-

for capita has been reduced from S7S.25
to $50 per capita, and the interest from
81, 80 to 81 Go per capita. The annual
interest chargein 1865 was nearly Sl51-
900, 900, while now it is about S56, OOO,-
600. Yet, demagogues and blather-
sixties like Sam Wood go about telling
the people that the Republican party
do not intend to pay the debt but to
perpetuate it.-Girard Press.
The Greenbackers themselves are
opposed to paying the debt. They
want to perpetuate it. Their plan is
to put the debt in the shape of Treas
ury notes, so that the government may
cheat the holder out of interest on the
loan,
