-Emigrant freight rates to North
Dakota points have always been higher
than to points in South Dakota of equal
distance from Chicago. In a measure
this has been modified by reduction on
the part Of the Northern Pacific and the
Manitoba roads Of Sl2 per car from Chi

will be an acquisition to the towns

we may be considered lucky in obtaining.

Grandma Brown, for whose comfort
and happiness everyone seems SO solicit
Gus, suffered with neuralgia a couple
days this week, but is again her peaceful
self. "Grandma" is a genuine Dakota
boomer, and says she knows she would
have suffered more had she passed the
winter in Michigan OF Ohio, and we be-
lieve her. Meadow Brook Farm without
Grandma Brown would lose half it's power
of attraction.
In and about Cooperstown dwell in
happy prosperity some sixty people from
the town OF st. Clair. Mich. and they all

loss it would seem that Griggs county

more citizens from that locality this
spring.
E. S. Seymour, who until last week
has been one OF Hopes prominent young
real estate men, has taken quarters with
Capt. Robinson at Mmdell. Not possess
ing the required amount OF rascally radj-
calism, OF what the outfit over there are
pleased TO call ''loyalty,' he became All

bearing rich fruit, and right here we
might remark that he struck the key
note Wednesday evening, when he urged
upon protesting the importance
Of their conduct in bringing people to
Christ. There are many who cannot be-
lieve the bible. or do not even read it's
pages, who can be convinced of the real
ty of christianity by the lives of their
