The Sewerage question, like "Ban-
nos ghost" viii not down. 1t is be-
ing constantly agltated and discussed
by our best citizens. A civil engineer
who has just completed sewerage
system at Arkadelphia is here, and
will look the ground over and make
estimates of cost, ETC. 1t will not be
near as expensive as it was once esti-
mated. BY all means let us have
sewerage, and as quickly as possible.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY IS, 1893.
VOLUME VIII.

With this issue we commence
the eighth year of the existence of
the Messenger. Seven years ago
we launched our little sheet on the
world as an infantile experiment,
vet with the firm conviction that
it would become a permanent IN
stitution, and the determination to
face all opposition and drawbacks,
and with the generous aid of the
good people of our neighborhoOd,
give a paper that would meet the
desires Of the reading public as a
thoroughly home and local paper,
which we have tried TO do, and at
the same time keep within the Ii
mits of our means. The latter we
have done, and trust we have sa-
tisfied our readers by our efforts
to give them from week to week
the news of our towns and sur
rounding country. We could have
given a larger and probably better
paper, but this would have neccs-
STATED increased expense: conse-
0uently we chose to conduct our
business on as moderate and eco
nomical principle until able to in
crease our capacity, and then we
can do So with the knowledge that
our BUSINESS is our own, and no
one can come in and claim it.
Our motto has been "Slow, but
Sure" and we still proposed to
keep this in view. Yet, VIC fur
ther propose to keep up with the
times as near as possible, by ere
long adding new machinery, and
new type. increase the size of the
paper and otherwise add to our
business that will be benefit to
our patrons rs well as ourselves.
During the past seven years we
have opposed various measures,
but always acted conscientiously
and advocated that which we
thought would he the most advan-
tageous and beneficial to the town
and the people. We have never
yet expressed. ourselves through
any personal feeling toward any
man or set OF men, and when we
oppose any measure. it is strictly
on the principles of right OF wrong.
and we Go not carry our opposi-
tion beyond the point at issue.
Outside of that, our aim is to treat
all alike; fairly and squarely, in a
business-l'ke and friendly manner.
In the future. as in the past. we
shall continue to speak our mind,
freely and fearlessly on matters
pertaining to public interest and
the advancement of our town.

in the treasury department for near

in the city for years, and knew of

the near neighbors among whom he
has the right and privilege of resid-

said to be in dread, but he was
cornered up SO to speak, and this
much was gathered from him on the
crop and polical situation. Asked
as to the crop prospects, he said
that he had learned the situation to
be very backward, and the Red
river and its tributaries very high,
which he feared at this late period

and Hail Storms With Spells of Bright
Sunshine and Summer Weather.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1893-05-11

and Hail Storms With Spells of Bright
Sunshine ana Summer Weather.
Rev. Irl R. Hicks. in Words and
Works: Indications are that May will
open with frosts in Northern direction
n warm wave will pass eastward over
the country, giving rise to reactionary
storm, central on and next to the 3rd.
after few days of cooler clear weather
about the 7th it will grow warmer in
the west, and during the Sth to 11th the
warmth will increase as it advances
eastward over the continent, resulting
in many storms about the Sth, 9th and
10th. There is a marked tendency to
frost, as a rule, from about the 10th to
18th of May, especially when frost oc-
ours on OF about those dates. But the
indications for this month are that this
frost period will reach Its crisis at the
close of the reactionary storms central
about the 18th. The new moon on
that day, and the equinox of Mercury
on the 18th, will increase and prolong
storm conditions and add to the proba-
bilities Of frost after the storms in
northerly regions.
From the 18th to 22nd falls a marked
storm period, the crisis of which will
be reached by about the 22nd. A very
warm wave will pass over the entire
country during the period, and danger
Gus storms are likely to result. Clouds
formations and other storm indications
should be prudently watched. Easter
ly and southerly winds, sultry air, with
low and falling barometer, are GER
tain habingers of coming disturbances.
After storms pass, if winds continue
from southerly points, or the barometer
sullenly refuses to rise, look for a re-
petition of rain, wind and thunder, in
cycles of twelve and twenty-four hours
until wind shifts permanently to west
erly, and the barometer moves decided
ly upward. About the 25th and 26th
there will be another rise in tempera-
ture, resulting in reactionary storms,
beginning of course, first in the west,
and appearing later and later at points
along their march to the east. Elk this
fact well in your minds. You will
soon learn by the plain indications
when the storms are liable to be retard-

holder, would not be received in
