"ln March last. our t.aby when six

the physicians called bronchitis ian
ordinary cold) and was very sick for
two weeks; she seemed to be filled deep
in the chest with phlegm which We were
unable to loosed; she could not liz. down
at all, but had to be held uprigh, else it
caused her to cough severely; the phys.
icians did not give her any relief. al
though the prescriptions were changed
every day and sometimes twice \ day:
this treatment was continued about ien
days and We finally determined TO try a
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
We obtained . bottle an after giving =
few doses she was relieved. breathing

the use of Chamberlain Cough Remedy.

too far from the business part Of the

These denominations hinder the wide dis
tribution of the securities among the peO-
purchasers among persons Of moderate
means. Only the itch can afford $500 or
$1,000 investments; many people of less
means would gladly invest in safe railway
securities of $50 or 500 denomin-
ations. To reduce the denominations of
railway bonds would enlarge materially
the home market for them. 1t would
give the railways larger constituency of
interested inventors in the territories they
serve, constituency competent to restrain
in marked degree the eXcesses of ill-c0n-
sidered hostile railway legislation, and to
contribute in many ways to railway, sta
bility and prosperity. 1t is pertinent to in
qNire who is likely to he able most intell-

Bismarck weekly tribune., 1888-10-12

THERE is great deal of cheap clap
trap in all this talk about "usury," and
the "great outrage perpetrated on the
farmers by its repeal in the last legisla-
ture." The bill for the repeal of the us
ury law was introduced in the last legis-
lature by farmer, was passed as farm
er's measure, was supported by Speaker
Crosse, the especial champion of the
granger sentiment, and to Mr.. Loucks,
president of the Farmers Alliance, who
was almost constantly on the floor of the
house lobbying among the farmer men,
bers, may be given large share of the
credit for the repeal of the usury law.
Every member of the last legislature
knows the above 10 be true, bnt they do
not dare to peep now because they are
facing new campaign. One has but to
examine the official journal of the last
house to be convinced Of the fact that
the repeal of the usury law was effected
wholly by granger influence.
