A Happy land.

The New York World says truly

Providence and the Continental
Congress for the many advantages

and everywhere the terrors Of Nj

Yet here we are in the United

crazy for roller skating, settling
our strikes by conccding better pay

business revival, reforming our
Government, di:cardiug some Of
our follies, and dreading nothing

DeIlghlruI Dakota.

Dakota is the newest, worst
treated and grandest Of the Terri.
tories of the Union, the garden
spot Of the.continent, the imperial
wheat belt Of the globe. 1t is a
more than royal realm, which ten
years ago was unexplored aud al
most unknown, which but five
years ago was almost wholly a re,
gion of romance and of fable. 1t
is u peerless but modest land, that
never sounds the fishhorn Of its
own fame. 1t is the worlds true

tempestS ever blow, and where all
the breezes are trained to sing
psalms in tunes in pianissimo
style and in even better time and
rhyme than the rendering Of "The
Order Of the Full Moons" heard
just now.
Our widest billiards., as unen.
ightened down.Easters sometimes
term them, are used by gentle
mothers to lull their babes to sleep.
The sun shines over with a mellow
splendor that calls to mind the
far.famed Happy Valley of "Rasse.
las" and there is just frost enough
in our winters to turn the elm
leaves golden, No summer drouths
or winter aoods spread devastation
over the fields and hopes Of our
husbandmen. No army worms or
grusshoppers sweep those fertile
plains aud valleys with nibbling
desolation. No hail.storms rattle
their destroying musketry upon
the grains and fruits aud plate

except, now and then, just enough
to furnish business to our ambi
tious young home hail insurance
