Death Of Hon. W. s. Dickinson.

n telegram to relatives here Wed.
nesday morning announced the death
of w. S. Dickinson ut his home in
Malone, N. Y. on Tuesday last, ut
$3.50 pm.
In the death of w. s. Dickinson,
one is taken from earth who,for thirty
years was prominent in affairs of
magnitude, exerting a power in the
world, and that for good. His in
lluence reached beyond the confines
of his own state. and from his associ-
alton with the Northern Pacific COM
pany as general manager of their
landed interests throughout this
country, was instrumental in getting
many privileges for the town of Dick
inson, which we now enjoy. He was
q man of sterling worth and was emil
nently successful III every business
with which he allied himself. Soon
after his last visit to Dickinson 1.-THE
town named for him, and one in which
he was always especially interested)
his health failed and his life since has
been spent in retirement.
Wells S. Dickinson was born in
Bangor, N. Y, Aug. l0, 1928. At All
early age he entered the mercantile
business, and the discipline and ex.
perience then gained eminently fitted
him for large and varied un
dertakings i'll after years. In 1857
he commenced IL banking business at
Red Wing, Minn., which he continued
for several years, also engaging il
large numbering and manufacturing
enterprises in his native state.
His political career commenced
about 1860, when, after being ap
pointed commissioner by the legis
lature to adjust important differences
was elected to the legislature OF
the republican ticket from his dis
trict, in the state of New York, I;
position which he filled with
credit and, owing to business de
mands, declined unanimous renom
ination which was rendered him. He
was delegate to the national con
vention which convened at Baltimor
in 1864. and nominated Abraham Lin
coin for his second term. In 1871 ht
was sent to the state senate, and re
elected in 1878. In 1875 he was a del
egate to the national convention
which nominated William A
Wheeler, a personal friend, for vice
president.
Mr.. Dickinson was cousin of H
,, !, l.. and L. j. Dickinson of this town
, He was married in 1851 to Miss Thus
Fish, of Bangor, N. Y, who survive
him. E. E. Dickinson. son and onl,
; child, is now in business in New
York City.

which never fail to vastly increase
the personal intelligence. industry
and wage. earnings of the people.
Second-It adds prodigiously to the
power of increasing, by machinery
and steam and water power, the neces'
saries of life and of advanced civiliza'
tion, and also greatly cheapens the
cost of subsistence.
Third-It furnishes an opportunity
for every person to find the employ
ment best adapted to his or her geniu:
and capacity, that will secure th'
largest income or the greatest happi
ness.
Fourth-It creates a home market
without which the cultivators of lant

better off than our Aborigines.
Fifth-1t is the bulwark of nationa
independence in peace or war.

A Warning-Don't Use Big Words.

In promulgating esoteric cogita-
tions OF artlculating superficial senti-
mentalities and philosophical OF psy-
Geological observations. beware of
platitudinous ponderosity. Let your
statements possess a clarified COR
ciseness, compact comprehensive
ness, coalescent consistency and a
concentrated cogency. Eschew all
conglomerations of tlatulent garrulity,
jejune babblement and asinine affcc-
tations. In trying to impress upon
others the superiority of the Wiscon-
sin Central Lines, and why you and
so many others use this thoroughfare
from st. Paul and Minneapolis and
Duluth and Ashland to Milwaukee,
Chicago and points east and south, it
is not necessary to use jawbreakers.
Let your eXtemporaneous descantings
and unprecedented expatiations have
intelligibility and veracious vivacity,

ers of the Worlds Fair, for South Da'
kota has devised and adopted a
scheme for raising funds whereby
their state may be creditably repre-.
sented at the exposition, that for in

patriotic exercises. pertaining to the
great fair that is now in progress, in
which teachers and pupils, county
superintendent, and all interested in
the cause of education, are invited to
take part, and not unimportant part
of the programme is for each to con-

Dakota representation worthy of
her name and standing as state.
May the project prosper.

Frightful Sllipwrecks.

Staunch ships strike and founder,
the fierce winds and mountainous
waves sweep noble mariners "hearts
of oak'' to shipwreck and to death,
yet that does not prevent the lubber-
liest landsman from risklng his life
on the stormy Atlantic in the role of
tourist or commercial traveller. But
if he shall reach his destination safely
he will scarcely have escaped some of
the qualms of seasickness, unless he
takes with him Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, that inimitable specific for
nausea. Bad water on long trips are
threat to the voyager, but this may
be deprived in great measure of its
disordering upon the stomach, bowels
and liver by the Bitters. Against the
prejudicial effects of malaria, bad
diet, fatigue and exposure it is also
efficacious. 1t averts, moreover, rheu-
matism and kidney complaints. Don't
travel on sea or land without it.

The petition signed by numerous
stockmen and presented to the board
of commissioners at their regular
meeting, asking that bounty be paid
for the capture of wolves, is matter
that all sheepmen are interested in.
The maximum amount allowed by
law is small, and it is believed that
at their next meeting, when the mat
ter will again come efore the board
they will allow a fair bounty for
every wolf scalp. These sheep de.
stroyers are reported about in unusual
numbers this winter and sheepmen
have to be constantly on the watch to
protect their flocks. Cases are re.

by curiosity, came within the corral
