Indigestion, there is nothing SO effective

organs, and restore health and strength to
the entire system. T. P. Bonner, Chester,

Dakota the Great.

Whenever in outside circles the sub
ject of the division of the territory is
broached, there is always some one ready
with new name sfor The portion" which
IS to ''get left," but the true Dakotian is
satisfied with nothing less than Dakota,
although prefix qualifying the sense
relative to the points of the compass has
not been considered undesirable. The
love for the name is easily explained to
those who found Dakota wilderness de.
void of interest to the world at large, and
have made it the center of an enormous
wheat trade, the home of hundreds of
thousands of prosperous farmers and busi-
ness men the hope of the emigrant, the
polar stal of the tourist. This great COM
monwealtb, this ''empire statc," which
will soon merit that distinction, being
more powerful than the state which at
present claims that title, this loadstone
which has drawn across the plains
mighty population, is the result of indi-
vidual effort. No subsidy but that which
the most rigid frugallty has permitted the
government to grant the settler has raised
the monument to the cereal greatness CT
the territory and has made her first among
grain producing sections of the country.

THIS IS A BIG COUNTRY.

However familiar people generally are
of the boundaries and extent of the do
.nain of the United States 1t almost as,
tonishts one to think that, exclusive Of
Alaska, not ha.f Of the national domain
has been admitted into the union as
states. The thirty eight states embrace
an area of abyut two milli2n square miles
and the eight territories, leaving out
Alaska which now has a territorial gov
ernncnt. embraces nearly three millions
of square miles. Including Alaska Ind
the Indian territory not more than one
fourth of the territory belonging to the
United States and under fedora! govern
meut has been admitted iato the Union
as states. Without thinking or making
calculation people in the middle and eas;-
ern states look upon the Mississippi river
as almost the western side of the national
domain, but all the states east of the Mis-
siss,ppi river, from the Gulf OF Mexico to
the Manitoba line, including the whole
OF Minnesota, only aggregates an area of
about one million square miles, while
west of that river, exclusive Of Alaska
and Indian territory, Is an area of over
four million square miles. SO that when
all tins western country Incomes thlck!y
settled people will have to come west of
the Mississippi river to be fairly into the
United States The twenty-eight states
east of the Mississippi river are only an
eastern suburb of the national domain,

THE FARMERS, MOVEMENT.

The freight and wheat grading agita-
tion has finally reached this county and
the meeting held in this city yesterday
was the first organized movement of that
kind il this county. For the most part
The farmers present manifested very fair
and candid spirit, and exhibited dispo-
sltion to regard with equitable justice the
rights of all other Industries while dc.
manting their own. Meu of mature age
and extensive experience arc taking the
lead and will we believe direct and con
troll the action Of the organization. Ex-
,remists, while they may be useful as ag-
itators, arc not safe counse)lors anh
guides. 1t is the solid level headed, dc.
Lucrative man who is the safest guide
though he may not be an effective agta
tor. The subject is one that engrosscd the
attention and exhausted the ingenuity OF
the ablest men, particularly OF the states
OF Wisconsin, Iowa and Illinois, and af-
ter years of arduous study and expell-
mcnt the question IS still unsettled. The
farmers of this county and of all parts of
the territory shoulG be reasonable in their
demands upon the Legislature for laws
upon the subject for an undue pressure
upon that body may stimulate them to
enact laws which their better judgment
will tell them cannot be sustained by the
courts, the result of which would be
damaging if not disastrous to the very
interests intended to be subserved.
