Gordon was we'll known and liked by
a great number of Emmons county peo-
pie, who had made the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Gordon their stopping place going
and coming from Bismarck. and their
sympathies will 20 out to the bereaved
family in their great affliction.
There is no line of goods sold In which
the public is SO little posted regarding
values as that Of Drugs. For this reason
the buyer should always deal where be
knows he will get the worth of his money.
And we have never heard citizen of
Emmons County complain Of Ills treat
ment by Dunn s. Co.. Bismarck.
Bismarck Settler The home of Mr..
and Mrs. o. r. Barnes was filled to over
flowing last evening "wednesday, Feb.
2O by friends who witnessed the marriage
Of Miss Cora Barnes and Mr.. T. P. Her.
ron. Many were the costly and useful
presents received, and the happy couple
left on the midnight train, carrying with
them the best wishes of all. Rev. Dayton,
of Mandan, performed the ceremony.
ksMr. and Mrs. John Kurtz returned Sat-
urday from their wanderings amid the
billiards and bottomless mud-pits of the
cid Buckeye State. The younger mem.
bers Of the family, pitying them for their
winters sufferings while exposed to the
| wretched Ohio climate, concluded to well
come them back to Gods country with a
''housewarming." So they took posses.
sion of the Kurtz residence, and when
the cid folks reached home they found
their children and grandchildren Assem-.
bled, and banquet prepared for them,
to the wredking of which it is said they
did their full share, and proved that the
Dakota appetite surviveth all travels.
&'Superintendent Worst Is one of the
many men m this part of the country
who have become impressed with the fact
that there Is money in sheep. and the
coming season he will start in with q
couple of hundred. There is one thing
to be said regarding che raising of sheep
on the rich grasses of the Missouri Slope
i--somethlng that ought to prove very
| encouraging to beginners-which is, that
every one in this county engaged in the
business is satisfied with 1t. There has
been no disease of any kind, so for. and
with free pasturage, hay for the cutting
and no sickness, the profit from sheep ii
as sure az that two and two make four.

In the Matter oH wheat.

In the Matter oR Wheat.
Territorial Statisticlan Sheridan says:
There Is not now in Dakota enough
wheat for seed and bread. There is now
but about 5000, 900 bushels of wheat in
the territory, IN the farmers hands and
In elevators, and it will require II. .00o, 900
bushels to seed and bread the territory.
This will, In round numbers. make .
shortage OF about 3, ,000, 600 bushels of the
amount necessary to tide over the farm
ers until the new crop. While central
and southern Dakota havs from 50 to 60
per cent of the 1883 wheat crop on hand,
the northern and northwestern counties
have but froma to 10 per cent Of the
CROP"
The Dakota farmer who keeps himself
we'll informed, says the Sioux Fails
Press, will put in large acreage Of wheat
this year. The crop Of 1883 was short
throughout the world, and the price in
the Northwest increased from about 60
cents to ii. and even to $1.16. and per-
haps for day or two few cents higher.
There will be very little wheat in the
country by the close of the next harvest,
and 1t seems slmost absolutely certain,
no matter how bountiful the crop, that
this cereal will command q good price.
This view is strengthened by the news
that the Australian wheat crop, which
has just bsen harvested. has fallen below
the average, and the quantity which that
great continent will offer for export will
be only 5000, 600 BUSHELS which is less
than the yield Of some single counties in
Dakota. 1t 10 therefore reasonably cer-
tain that the farmers OF the Northwest
will ind arst-elass market for all the
wheat which they can grow, though Of
course no man, even with this promising
outlook, should pin his entire faith On
one crop.

RECOGNITION OF THE NEGRO
VOTE

In this time of cabinet making, when the
ingenuity of men is being racked to help
Gen. Harrison out OF his difficulties, we
notice that no very great stress is being
laid upon the colored voter as a possible
member in the new administration.
The vote that controls several of the North
ern States and gave Gen. Harrison his cleo
ton is certainly entitled to be represented
in the executive of the government.
Take the negro vote away from the Re-
publican ticket in Indiana, Ohio and New
York and it would be defeated. Take it
away from the same ticket in PeDnsylva-
mia and give it to the Democratic ticket,
and Pennsylvania would be Democratic.
Such an important factor demands suitable
recognition, not by the appointment of some
Southern negro, Lynch, or Bruce, or Pinch
back, to high Office, but by the appointment
of some representative Northern negro. The
Northern negro vote is known to be Repub-
lican, and easily holds the balance of power
between the parties at the North. The
Southern negro vote may or may not be
Republican, but it has no potency
After nearly one hundred years of free
dom in the North there must be many
negroes quite competent to fill even the
position of a cabinet officer. Let the new
President show his friendship and appre-
citation for the colored brother by making
him one of his chosen counselors.
