I am sixty.six years old. In August, 1889, was
troubled with the peculiar skin disease to which
people of my age are subject, known among medi-
cal men as eczema. Its first appearance was near
the ankles. It rapidly, extended over the lower
extremities until my legs were nearly one raw sore;
from legs the trouble extended across the hips,
legs and arms greatly swollen with an Itching,
burning pain, without cessation. Although the
best medical advice attainable was employed, no
less than five physicians Of the place being con.

parently checked, would recur in q few days as
bad as ever; during It's progress my weight fell

Crumbs from Conger,

Everyone is busy seeding.
The ground never was in better shape
for producing a big crop than it is this
spring.
Last week all hands were busy thresh-
ing, several of the neighborlng farmers
not having gotten their grain threshed
last fall on account of the scarcity of
threshing machines and crews. The
grain has stood the winter we'll, some of
it, when threshed, being as sound and
nice as the best of that threshed in the
fall. Richards & Danielson did the
threshing, doing excellent work. The
yield was astonishing.
Olaf Peterson raised thirty-seven
bushels of wheat to the acre on part of
his land, having gotten 225 bushels from
six acres; and when the farmer threshes
that amount in the spring after birds,
mice and gophers have fed from the
stacks all winter, it is a surprising
yield. Note this, ye enterprising, in
dustrious people, who are seeking loca-
tions, and note further, that there Is an
abundance of good farming land in this
neighborhood, Crofte township contain
ing some the finest as yet untaken, laud
in Burleigh county.
It is strikingly queer that in Ecklund
township almost every acre of govern
ment land has been taken, while in
CroFte township, six miles nearer Bis
marck and the wheat market, some of
the finest and most fertile lands in the
county are. us yet, ~unoccupied.

THE CONVENTION.

Nothing has yet happened at Minneapolis
TO indicate with anything like accuracy
the final result. The present indications
are that there Will be no choice on the first
ballot There will be a scattering vote in
favor Of favorite sons, which Will render
the first ballot in certain sense an infOT-
mai expression Of opinion. The alleged
fact. if true, that the Blaine men have ar
ranged 20 bring out favorite sons Indicates
a lack Of confidence. Delegates who on
test vote would vote for Harrison may
give a complimentary vote TO a local states
man they do not expect to hear Of after
ward during the sessions of the convention.
There is still an undeTtOne of feeling that
Mr. Blaine may retire voluntarily from the
contest when he Derceiyes that he is not
clearly the choice Of a majority OF the con-
venti0n. II is we'll to bear IN mind that he
las not said a word to the public in regard
10 the nomination since the Clarks0n let
ter. If at any time he has contemplated an
acceptance Of the nomination it must have
been on assurance that he Lad only TO let
his name 20 before the convention 70 be-
come its almost unanimous choice. The
feeling that M Blaine may voluntarily re-
tire finds some support in the impossibiiity
Of reconciiing the ClaTkson letter with a
purpose OF desire to make a contest for the
nomination. 1t is generally admitted that
if Instead Of writing the ClarkS0n letter,
Mr. Blaine had resigned and placed him
self in tie hands Of his friends, he would
have been nominated almost without oppO-
sitiGn. The opposition lie has encountered

THEY WANT MORE CASH.

Ten years ago San Francisco had popu-
lation Of about 90, 900, and its annual ex-
pendiiures were about S3.500,0O0. The in
crease of $4,000 IN population has added an
increase Of 81, 600 to our expenditures.
There would be no great complaint made
over this uDIroportioDate increase If cur
people cuuld see where it had done good.
But there is no department in our city gov
eminent in which there is any marked i'm
pToYement in consequence of the more lib
eral expenditure. There is undoubtedly
more waste. There are more people feed
ing atathe public crib, who have little or
nothing to do but to draw their salaries.
The dark side Of this picture is the demand
Of the heads Of departments for little more
than a million more than the Auditor pro-
poses to allow them. These demands are
made with singular disregard of the fact
that no good is shown TO have come Of the
increase in the expenditures the last year.
Without showing in what way the $500 900
excess of last year benefited the public they
ask for considerably more than a million in
excess of last years appropriations. There
would be no disposition TO complain OF the
present rate Of expenditure If the money
was well expended. But the taxpayers
have right to object to an increase Of
waste. Unless the Supervisors cut into the
Auditors estimate the Street Department
viii get larger sum than it had last year.
But the increase of last year has been frlt-
tered away. 1t should be a condition of an
increase in expenditures in any department
that the money it has had should have been
fairly well expended.
