Low Freight Rates.

The Northwestern railway companies are
now preparing their spring tariff on emf
grant moyables. The Manitoba road has
made reductions which make its rates very
low. 1t is the policy Of the Manitoba and
Northern Pacific roads to make their rates
so low that people will be induced to settle
In the country along their lines. thus popu-
lating and developing the districts on which
they depend for support from local traffic.
The Northern Pacihc freight department is
now actively engaged getting out an emf
grant tariff to all points on the line. The
rate TO Bismarck will be S35 per car for a
haul of All miles. This is the lowest rate
made by any line IN the West. and the re-
auctions made between Fargo and Bis
marck. and Bismarck and Glendive are cor
respondingly low.

bare-faced lie. The Baptist society are very
well satisfied with their present efficient pas

interests of that organization. His year does

An Absent Minded Lawyer.
Nippaopolia Trih,Ypa

Truthful James," writing in the Tri-
bune tells this story: A gentleman ap-
piled to a young lawyer here for di-
vorce for friend whose husband had
deserted her. The facts were such that
divorce could easily be procured, and the
lady's friend was so informed. The case
was placed upon the docket for hearing,
and the young legal light assured the par
ties that the knot would be united on
certain date without difficulty. The gen
tleman interested was going to marry the
lady, and they made all the necessary
preparations for the happy event the day
following that upon which the divorce
had been promised, issuing printed in
vitations, securing the minister, and at
tending to other preliminaries. But the
young lawyer, in fit of absent-minded
ness. failed to file his note of issue, and
the hearing of the case was postponed
one week. To say that there was music
in the air does not fairly express the state
of affairs when the Prospectively happy
couple discovered the situation. But the
wedding was postpoEed, all the same.
