Railroad commissioners Meet,

The board of railroad commissioners
met at their office in the Sheridan house
Saturday. The full board and and Sec
Rotary was present.
The first business considered was the
adoption of rules and regulations gov
erning warehouses, elevators and rail-
roads, which rules and regulations were
ordered printed in pamphlet form for
free distribution throughout the state
and to be posted up on warehouses and
elevators. Conductors are instructed
to open cars containing grain for inspec-
ton at terminal points and in case of
refusal the inspector is given power to
break seal and inspect the grain there
in.
The secretary was instructed to COM
municate with the railroad companies
and ask them to put in track scales at
Grand Forks, Fargo, Wanpeton and
Paramount. The secre tarywas also in
structed to prepare necessary printing
and blanks for inspection of grain.
The salary of the chief inspector was
fixed at the sum of $500 per annum,
and of chief deputies at $1,000 per an
nun each, and assistant inspector at
$1,000 per annum.
The secretary was instructed to re-
quest the attorney general to draw
forms of bonds for elevators and grain
warehouses, also for the different inspec-
tors.
The secretary was also instructed to
inquire what authority or power the
commissioners of railroads have to in
force the provisions Of chapter 1913 of
the session laws of 1890.
Jacob B. Wineman of Grand Forks
was appointed chief inspector of grain
for North Dakota.
The headquarters of the chief in
spector of grain shall be at Fargo, Cass
county, N. D.

What they are Good for.

LAG tAOy are OOOu IOTs
Brandreth's Pills are the best medi-
cine known.
First-They are purely vegetable, in
fact a medicated food.
Second-The same dose always pro.
duces the same effect-other purgatives
require increased doses and finally cease
acting.
Third-They purify the blood.
Fourth-They invigorate the digestion
and cleanse the stomach and bowels.
Fifth-They stimulate the liver and
carry off vitiated bile and other ~depraved
~secretions.
The first two OF three doses tell the
story. The skin becomes clear, the eye
bright, the mind active, digestion is re.
stored, ~costiveness cured, the animal
vigor is recruited and all decay arrested
Brandreth's Pills are sold in every
drug and medicine store, either plain OF
sugar coated.

tile and fresh-laundried shirt front; then
an honest granger, with careless mien
and a multitude Of mosquito bites, would
appear. But all carried with them the
same mysterious air and look of expect
ancy. And the strangest part of it was
that each would disappear as suddenly as
though the earth had opened and swal-
lowed him up. Gin a short time the man
would again be seen retracing his steps;
but a smile of satisfaction had succeeded
the air of mystery, and in his hand he
frequently carried a vessel such as Is
sometimes used as a candlestick in from
tier camps and country hotels. Ever and
anon would be borne to the ears of the
scribe the sound of voices in song, and
parts of a hymn, in which the words ego
home till morning. and daylight does
appear could be distinguished, smote
his tympanum. Much astonished, the
scribe straightway approached a citizen
who was leaning against a backyard fence
and said: "Kind sir, pray tell me, if you
know, whence proceed these weird, mys-
FERROUS npises?" And the citizen an
swered: "Old man, you are within the
feeding-grounds of the blind pig, and the
sounds you hear are his grunts." Then
the rural scribe passed on, much wonder
ing at the mysterious deeds that we're
done within the gates of a great city.
And he left town 30 quickly that he came
near forgetting his hotel bill, and before
set of SUI he was many miles from the
haunts of the ferocious wild boar.

An Important Ruling.

During the last few dry years
settlers in North Dakota have crowded
into old dry lake beds that have been
meandered only and demands were made
on the department to have these lake
beds surveyed and opened to settlement.
Last spring Surveyor General Williams
was authorized to receive applications
from such settlers, but later in the sea-
son the department learns that water is
returning to these lake beds again and
Saturday Surveyor General Williams
received the following telegram from
Commissioner Carter:
"Enter into no contract Tor issue no
special instructions for the survey of dry
lake beds under the Popple decision IL,
L.. D., 1885," etc.
This is a matter Of very general i'm
portance to the settlers of North Dako-
ia and withal a very good advertisement
for the state.

Father Graft Talks.

Washburn Leader: Father Craft, of
the Berthold Catholic Mission, passed
through Washburn this week en- route
to his field Of labors. Father Craft is the
priest who was reported killed by the In
dams in that short but terrible conflict
at Wounded Knee last fall. 1t is true
that he was almost literally shot to
pieces, and for a time his life was des-
paired of, but through the miraculous in
tervention of Divine Providence his life
was prolonged for future good and USE
fulness. He neither the Indians
nor the troops for the calamity that be-
fell him on that unfortunate occasion,
and says it was one of the unhappy &C.
currences brought about unpremedita-
ted through the force of circumstances
controlled by the impulse Of the
moment. He emphatically contradicts
the vile i%mputation put upon the
troops on that occasion in bringing about
the conflict, and especially the false as
sertion published abroad that the SOL
diers wantonly shot down women and
children. On the contrary, he says the
troops acted most nobly and brave in
their endeavor to protect woman and
children from the dangers of the hour,
and that more than one brave soldier bit
the dust while performing the humane
act of conveying Indian children beyond
the reach of harm. Father Graft was
an eye witness to all that transpired
during that brief and terrible siege, and
his relation of the many incidents &C.
curing during the time is a story more
%truthfully illustrating the humane con-
duct of the soldiery than any of the re-
ports of the battle sent out distorted and
fixed up to suit the Indian bureau.

The "Feedine Ground of tho Blind Pig"
Emmons County Record: Bismarck is
rapidly becoming a city of trees, and,
with the addition of shrubbery and lawns
OF tame grass, many of the homes are as
comfortable and cosy as are to be found
in older cities much farther south. A
promenade in summer along the side

markable, therefore, was the fact that
many citizens, of the Capital City-and
