Through special arrangements We are
prepared to offer the LEADER, the North
western A~griculturist and a Due Bill for
one dollars worth of John A. Salzer' seeds
bulbs or plants, all for the low price of
$1.7O. If taken separately they would cost
50. This is certainly q very liberal offer.
The Northwestern %Agriculturist is one of
the very best periodicals for farmers use
published in the west. Salzer's seeds are
northern grown, and are acknowledged to
be equal to the best on the market. Re-
member. $1.7O cash in advance takes the
three. Don't lose this chance.
Call on OF address. LEADER. Washburn.

Minot journal: The journal very sell
dom fails to catch all the news, but last
week it failed to "catch d." to the fact that
our gallant, dark-eyed Peter Funk wal ap-
pointed purchasing agent for the county.
To ssyt that he Is the right man in the right
plsce;. is only correct. In ancient days,
when, Minot wal yet in her swaddling
clothes;,Peter, the Funkite, was one of her
progressive citizens-andhas been through
al hsrvtroubles-political and financial
sndtoday he Is among the county's most
valieble officials.

tB-The Chicago News pays this tribute
TO ex-senatorial dignity and illustriousness.
Speaking of Governor Tabor, who shed
lustre upon the name of Colorado in the
United States senate, 1t mildly remarks:
Mr.. Tabor is not only disreputable, he is
indecent, and he has been so for many
years. His career has been plentifully
streaked with brutal and unfeeling, if not
criminal, vulgarity. He has constantly
violated every instinct of manly decorum.
From Maine to Kansas, thence to Clear
Creek, thence to California Gulch, thence
to Denver, thence to Washington, thence
to Oshkosh-everywhere and back again
his txsil has exhaled tho miasma of gross
indsnoscy and blatant ribaldry.

The Kootenai Courier says that an Ida
no editor is in hiding while his foreman is
trying to arrange matters so that he can
come home without fear of being pulver-
lied. In describing the house plants owned
by the wife of a prominent citizen he used
the phrased "Mrs. Blank has the prettiest
plants in town." but in making up the
form the 81" in plants dropped out and
tho. paper was printed and distributed be-
fore the error was discovered. The editor
saw the irate husband hustling along the
street with q huge blacksnake and at once
dropped from q back window, whence he
took to the woods. The foreman made a
beautiful apology the week following, but
the editor is still at large.
