The attempt of Sioux Uisy to secure
the removal of the signal service station
from YanktoG is strongly condemned all
over the territory. If Sioux Oi.y wants
station let her get it il she can without
robbing Dakota. The people of the
states must remember that the day of
robbing Dakota and then calmly asking
her "what are you gong to do about
it?" is over. Dakota will be represented
in the next congress and then she will
be in position TO remember her friends
as we'll as her enemies.-Hnron Huqostste.
1t is about time for the outlying
bloodsuckers TO take this lesson to
themselves. Dakota cities will soon be
IN condition to take care OF the business
of Dakota and Dakota's senators and
congressman will sse that the hen roost
practices OF the past are abandoned. An
intimstion Of coming assertion of rights
is given in the lively manner in which
Delegate Mathews put his foot on the
Sioux CITY scheme to steal the Yankton
signal station.

These, if existent in natural quantity, and
unvitiated by bile, play their part in the func-

artificial acid resulting from the inability OF
the stomach to convert food received by it into
susteuance, is the producer of hatulence and
heartburn, which are the most harrassing
symptoms of dyspepsia. The best cerminatiye
effective is IL than car Donate or soda, magnesia

Keep Your Word.

Whatever else you do never violate your
word. In this respect we are degeneratiDg-
as people. for years ago when men said
they would do anything Oh their word Of
honor, it was done. Nowadays men make
promises never intending to keep Them,
and hence want of confidence in each
other marks the human race. A fully
truthful man is a pearl in the days in
which he lives, but he is not
appreciated by the masses. because the,
masses are given to eQuivOcatiOn, so edu-
Gated and forced to lie i'm self defense.
hence we have broken promises. misplaced
confidence, wounded hearts and general
chickering's. Mems cupidity leads them to.
prevaricate; mems love of money leads.
them to lie; mems desire for gain leads
them to cheat; mems hope of advantage
leads them to hold in cheap repute their
word of honor. The audaciOus and un-,
principled are pressing down the timid..
modest, honest. truthful men of the age.
and hence there is a want of confidence III
each other and an unstable condition. Let
every man adopt the motto: My word is as
good as my bond" and maintain it in his.
personal integrity. and confidence would
soon be restored and happier state
would soon exist. Again. society
should ignore the man who habit
ually lies instead of petting him; should
frOwn down the prevaricatOr instead of
laughing at his vilainouS attempt to de-
ceive; should boycott the man who cheats
instead of he who gives honest measure,
and on the other hand. society should up
hold and maintain men of truth, of honor.
of virtue. of manhood. and who are honest
in their dealings with the public. But will
society do this? We are afraid not. Ind-
viduals can do it and thus would society.
and if each one would start ont with de-
termination to maintain his word of honor.
much could be accomplished toward great
and very necessary reform. Nj. New,
