J. G. MCMAN1MA, who is publishing a
monthly magazine at Pierre, called
Northwestern Progress, has this to say
of North Dakota:
eff any New Workers are inveigled in
to letting go of their North Dakota
mortgages for Is per cent. of their face
value, they will repent it to the extent
of just rs per cent. Crops are good, and
North Dakota is as solvent as a pile of
gold dollars"

The Hard Part of Growing Bald.

II don't mind SO much growing bald"
said the submissive man, "as I mind hav-
ing every friend and acquaintance giving
me carloads of advice free of charge. Who
was it that said that what one could get
for nothing wasn't worth much? Every
man 1 know has a remedy for my badness,
different from every n else's remedy.
Every one is a sure cure, of course. Mean
while I q IN calmly sitting down and grow
ing balder. It's a pity that a man can't
ven grow baldin peace."-New York Trib-

The hot weather reports sent out from
South Dakota is having a bad effect in
the east on the great wheat raising belt
in North Dakota. The east cannot
understand that North and South Da-
kota are separate and distinct states,
either of which is as large as several
New England states. The weather in
South Dakota has little effect on the
crops Of North Dakota. It is possible
for the thermometer to go several de-
grees higher than it has been this year
without danger to crops. The following
from the New York Tribune is another
proof Of the benefits to be gained by the
North Dakota weather report being made
up and sent out from Bismarck, instead
Of depending on the incorrect report sent
out from Huron. In commenting on
our hot weather the Tribune says:
After a merciful July the ''hot wave''
often predicted, long expected, is having
it's own way with these August days.
Happily, so far the nights have been
fairly of the "sleepable, one-blanket''
class. In the Dakotas, whence this hot
weather comes to us, not only is the
temperature far ~fiercer, but, sad to say,
the wheat crop seems to be in danger of
being parched in the husk, just on the
W of the harvest. This would be a
hard blow for the farmers of that section
after their losses of 1889 and 1890"

THE LITTLE LASS IN PINK.
A peerless pearl of beauty,
A Jewel of romancei

A peerless pearl OF beauty,
A jewel of romancel
Who would not ride In tourney
To gain her winsome glancep
Who would not be q minstrel,
The golden rhymes to link,
And sing her praise in merry lays
The little lass in pink2
So tiny are her ~glovelets,
So dainty are her shoon,
I trow the pixies wrought them
Beneath the midnight moon:
And DER the elfin stitches
They sang, with many q wink,
I'VE Irvine a twist that none resist
The little lass In pink"
She hath q witching dimple:
Now was it not O sin
That when the fairies crowned her
They put the dimple inl
The heartaches it hath given
1t grieves my soul to think;
She hath no care how lovers fare
The little lass in pink.
Her smile is like dewdrop
That glistens in the morn.
Her frown-no eye hath seen it;
She looks in scorn.
Her footsteps fall like rose leaves
Beside the fountains brink.
The gallants sigh as she goes by
The little lass in pink.
After the revel's over,
When stars grow dim above,
And slumber's drowsy fingers
Have kissed the eyes we love,
Ho! gallant cavaliers,
Your parting beakers clink:
MAY time tread light and never blight
The little lass in pink"
Samuel Minturn Peck in Harper's Bazar

IT is now asserted by Hon. John
Clark, a noted Montana democratic pol

and if Blaine was the republican nomi-

carry the state against any democrat.

better than gold"

In the boiling teakettle the space not
occupied by water is filled with invisible
and transparent water vapor. When this
comes into contact with the cool outer air
some of the vapor is condensed to liquid
water and a cloud of steam is formed. This
white and Opaque steam is not seen very
near the spout, because the vapor there has
not yet been sufficiently cooled to condense.

The TRIBUNE is glad to see that Rev.
Ryan and other prohibition1sts are com
ing to the defense of Hon. G. A. Pollock,
whose only sin has been that he believes
in enforcement of the laws. Rev. Ryan
evidently has followed this conflict from
the beginning as he has discovered that
"the prohibitionists" are trying to sit
down on Pollock because he does not
favor a third party movement" Has
Rev. Ryan read the open letter signed
by prohibition Committee" whoever
that may be, and %eminating from James,
town. The TRIBUNE doesn't know how
far into this mire Hon. I. G. Wade Of
jamestown has got himself but it notices
that he is taking much interest in this
national prohibition party" scheme. It
is hoped Rev. Ryan and other republi-
can prohibitionists will not lose any
time from now on in setting down on the
prohibition cranks who would wreck
their cause entirely if given an oppor-
tunity. The TRIBUNE has always favored
high license and still believes in that
system of regulating the liquor cause,
but it also believes in sustaining the law
and does not approve of opposition to
men who have the honesty and indepen-
dence to come out squarely on this plat
form. The TRIBUNE fears that the rank
and file of prohibitionists lack reason.
The attack on Pollock by the prohibition

WHITE EARTH. MINI, Nov. 2.-William
Carson, hunter, brings to town strange
tale from the country northwest OF this
city. He had been hunting among the hills
about twenty miles from here, and one
night camped at the foot of rocky bluff
near stream. He had with him young
dog, which was constantly running around,
and during its ram bles it came to an open
ing in the rocks, where it stood and parked
and whined until Carson'S attention was at
tracted, and he went to the place to see
what so excited the animal. The dog was
standing at the mouth of cave with its
hair on end, and was evidently afraid TO go
in. AS it was dark Carson waited until
morning. as he did not care to investigate
without good light Next morning he ex-
amined the opening and from its appear
ance he was satisfied that no wild animal
used the cave. He started in to explore
the place.
The cave was small one and when he
got ten feet inside he came to room which
was evidently made by human hands. On
all sides, running clear around the chamber,
was bench cut from the earth. and on this
bench, sitting in CHASTITY row, were great
number of skeletons which had evidently
been there for many years. In one cor
ner was an elevated place and on this was
the skeleton of one who had evidently been
a chief. There were no weapons or inStru-
nents of any kind in the cave, and the room
had the appearance of a council chamber
from the way in which the skeletons were
arranged. There was not sign or mark of
any kind to indicate who had used the place
and Carson is of the opinion tbxer the re-
Indians.
