Cider Saloons.

Editor EHrEwneI;
Since prohibition was adopted by the
village and township Of Wellington two
cider saloons have been run 10 full blast
ps.ronized by the same class Of tipplers

whisky shops, with the additisn Of large
number Of boys between the ages Of Is
and q. This being an undisputed fact
temperance people and all believers in
local option may we'll stop and inquirei
What has been gained by local prohibi.
ton In Wellingtoni" II is we'll known
that fermented or hard cider Is more in
toxica,ing than lager beer or even ale, and
these saloons yend but little cider that is
not fermented. Old tipplers stand up be
fore their bsrs ard swill down half dozen
glasses OF time, or during an evening,
and "old tipplers' are not In the habit of
drinking sweet cider" II does not, as
they express it, reach the spot" An ex-
clusiyely sweet cider or soft drink" sa.
loon could not sustain itselfin Wellington.
In connection with the so.called sweet
cider there is yended as a sort Of substi-
tute for whisky, beverage called Cali
foTnia Tonic" manufactured In Cleveland.
Il Is not a patent medicine, but a bever-
age with an alcoholic base. II Is designed
for local option towns and the mAnufac-
iurers are said 70 guarantee the retailer

is proof Of an Indian encampment not
many years ago. While returning from
LsMoure the other day, l was saddenly
startled BY the appearance of fave "stal
wart braves" who confronted US, but
little farther along on the river bank,
could be seen their 'tepee" and they
proved to bc merely trappers who delight
in the CONSERVATION they read on the faces
Of the "pale faced women" they frighten
by sudden appearances. Had they given
"whoopn ! am sure should have
collapsed" for their faces were hideous
enough to give me the impression they
we're on the "war- path"
Buffalo trails can be seen in every di-
rection and they must have abounded in
great numbers. Tons and tons of their
bones have been collected here and sold.
A neighbor lone Of the pioneers having
come here in 's1) collected ton in day
and drew to Glendale, which was the
nearest s,ailroad town at that time, 30
miles south Of here and received $12 for
the ton of bones. All this will soon be
entirely Of the past Very few bones are
seen now, and instead Of herds Of bufalos,
can be seen herds of cattle and horses
quietly grazing on the nutritious grasses,
The trails spoken Of always lead to the
river or some slough where water could
be had there, and as they always went
single file, one behind the other, 1t is no
wonder they left trail which is SO easily
traced for miles, but they are fast being
obliterated by the plow, and the whistle
of the locomotive in the distance, proves
beyond doubt that indians and Buffa-
loes" belong TO the past era OF North
Dakota, while the present embraces all
the progression oi modern civilization.
The abundant grass OF last year and dry
spring has given splendid material for
prairie frss and the terrible destruction
| they nave made in South Dakota is ap-
palling. As a whole, we have escaped,
but there have been several individual
lossea in the county where the settlers
"all" have vanished in an hour. The
fierce winds We have experienced this
spring have swept the fires back and
forth until very little old grass remains
The green grass is shooting upward rap
idly and the black path Of the fre'fend
will soon be entirely covered. Later
