Some young women have the
mistaken idea that they can reform
young mel Of vicious habits after
marriage. Thisi is u terrible mistake.
1t is a thankless task, and in nine
ty-nine cases out of one hundred
will end in defeat and despair. A
young man who has not respect
enough for his friends, his parents,
his lover, nor himself to keep sober
before marriage, certainly cannot be
expected to remain sober aftereard.
If young ladies can be made to be-
lieve such a fallacy, after the exper-
fence of the past, we must say they
are exceedingly incredulous.

Well we have had the original
package joint among lis for several
weeks, long enough, in fact, to see
the workings Of the monster Of hid
cous mein, whom to be despised is
but to be seen. Who are the parties
who viii stoop to such q villainous
and shameful business? Great big,
lazy, double listed young fellows
from the outside. Non residents.
BY their very looks they tacitly adj
nit that the business is not honor
able nor legitimate. What are the
results Of the advent of these hell
holes, as our Honorable Fourth Of
July orator called them, filing our
people up with this satanic stuff,
making them crazy? | tell you.
says he, it is ZIMMERMAN, and by
the help Of God, we'U fod a remedy.
One young man who has not been
intoxicated for over a year has fall
en- before tie wiles of the temptcr.
says he cant pass q saloon without
entering. These places should be
kept out of here for his benefit alone.
Another man of family has been
halt seas over and more every Sat-
urday night since tl.eir advent, and
as a result his grocery bill is gradu-
ally running behind, as the grocer
tells us, where heretofore he paid
up promptly and regularly. These
joints help legitimate trade you see.
We remember how some prophesied
that grass would grow in the streets
should the saloon disappear, Poor
foolish fellows, the grass is growing
over them long since. Aud just here
we remember that some people
said that there was as much drunk
eness, Or even more, when liquor
could be procured at q drug store,
as when there was saloons. How
alphabetically this fallacious argu-
ment has been ~disproven. We have
see more drunken men in Elk
Poin, within the last four weeks,
than we had seen in the previous
five years. Persons making such an
argument were misrepresenting the
truth for a purpose. We understand
from the Marshal that tables and
glasses and corkscrews are furnish
ed in some Of the places for the use
of parties buying these packages.
If this is SO, and we don't doubt it,
tits in direct opposition to the intent
of the law, which says, the contents
must not be drank on the premises
where sold. Then again these
places are a fearful pitfall for the
| young. IL the fathers and mothers
could see the boys who are seen
shying out Of the back doors Of
these places into the back doors Of
other rooms and Offices in. the late
hours Of the night. we feel sure tina,

We spent a delightful day last
Sabbath at Howard Mosier's resi-.
dence South Of town. Howard has
the finest farm residence in the
county. It is situated in the edge
Of the timber, and the yard, or lawn
contains four or five acres dotted all
over with fine large shade trees, with
the grass moved short and well
kept, which gives it the appearance
of fine park. Mr.. Mosicr
came to Dakota 20 years ago and ali
he had was span of horses and
wagon which he traded for this farm.
He worked three years in the saw
mill, near by, to get money enough
to buy a team and the necessary
implements to commence farming
with. He has added 100 acres to
the farm since, has, as we said be.
fore, the finest house in the county
and is just completing the finest and
best barn in the county. Howard
and Mrs. Mosier enjoy their beauti.
full home and like to have their
friends come and see them and en-
joy their hospitality. Mr.. and Mrs.
Ira Nichols and children, Mr.. and
Mrs. W. NJ. Ninson and the writer
were the fortunate ones who enjoy
ed their company and hospitality,

What is the general tendency Of tho hour
in other countriesf Is it not toward the
dissolution OF empires and the disruption
of dynasties? Most assuredly it Is. More
over, the m0uarchs themselves are not ct
all feeling well. The king Of Holland 10
quite i'll. His victuals. instead Of doing
MIN good. seem TO be productive Of boil in
the stomach. He 10 often heard to wish
that he was dead, and his staff have prom
ised, so far Is possible, TO crafty his every
wish.
The king OF Spain Is brunette glutton
from quite distance up the creek. He
founders himself almost every Gay, and
then murmurs because he can contain no
more. His doctors bills, they say. would
buy q good COW every year. He hates
books and enjoys nothing bat feeding. He
takes no interest in his nice new clot.es,
but constantly his ear is strained to catch
the sound OF The 10 O'Clock whistle, which
announces that the hands 1T the castle
have knocked of for dinner. He then
blows of the royal digester TO square
meal. to use crude Americanism.
The king Of Dahomey has had both his
own and his wires relations strained oy
France, and war 10 almost inevitable. He
knows also that il will be one of those dis
agreeable wars IN which he will have the
excitement Of getting some of his most
indispensable brains shot out, without the
elorv OF . victory. Though be may think
ne Il right. and that IL il better to be right
than to be . relative of the executive, he is
almost certain to get done up by France.
