North Dakota's Legislature will try tn
iegalize the lottery business in that state
for the purpose of obtaining revenue. Th,
scheme has been quietly worked by the
Louisiana lottery company people, be-
cause they wanted new field, II is said
the Governor will veto any such law, and
II is probable the legislature could no,

The Yankton Press has struck the right
idea upon the question Of immigration
Commissioner. That paper says practi-
cally what the PRESS has for three years.
viz Do away with the Office of state
immigration commissioner, aud permit
each county to select one of its own citi-
zens as county immigration commission
er. the state fund TO furnish an equal
amount.to each county. More and better
WORK could be obtained in this way at no
greater expense, and far more beneficial
results realized.

speedy cure for diphthera. Stir a
teaspoonful of the -four into cup Of
