THENoRTH DAKOTA EXHIBIT: The Mandan
Pioneer complains that North Dakota is not

people is their extreme modesty which keeps
the attractive advantages of our state in the

full of Dakota Territory, and they had the best

had to import 1t from China. The editor Of
the Fargo Common wealth relates the incident
OF his visit ineognito to the North Dakota build

Manager Dickey is not hiding the light Of our

while sauntering around in the building he
overheard man remark to Mr.. Dickey that he
had no idea that such tall grass as that on ex-

''Of course you have heard Of people getting
lost in the billiards. Of North Dakota, but I
want to tell you 1t is the tall grass they get ost

The Russian thistle, and the danger it threat
ems in the Dakotas and Minnesota, more i'm
mediately, are the topics presented in one OF
the most recent bulletins issued by the depart
ment OF agriculture. 1t isnot too soon to make
this weed the subject of special inquiry if it is
true as stated, that a conservative estimate of
the damage caused by it in 1892. in the two
Dakotas alone, exceeded s., 600. O0O The wheat
was The chief sufferer. This is serious, as the
pest is new conner comparatively, and spreads
with wonderful 1apidity. It has not been in
Dakota, the bulletin states, more than fifteen
years. and only In the last half dozen has its
dangerous character become apparent. The
spring of '92 was unfavorable to it and it was
not 80 bad as the year before. But it is not to
be expected that natural causes alone will ex-
terminate it. So far 1t has not been able to

The advance statement of the business done
la this state during the year 1892 by fire in
surance companies, just issued by Fire Insur-

that this isa very profitable region for the

have received S4S9, 1870 as premiums and
Incurred losses amounting to $1SS, ,0S2. .3S.
There is no state in the union that can make a

the showing 10 not as good for companies. but
1t rarely falls far below 1t. or course 1t Is a
fact, undoubtedly, that the expense Of doing
business Is greater in this state than In some
more thIckly populated states. The travelling
expenses Of travelling agents arc greater. But
at the same time, II would seem that rates are

France, England, Germany, Hungary and
Southern Russia come reports of drawback to

to be doing damage in Kansas, threatening to
finish the remnant Of a crop in that state. The
most trustworthy reports leave little room for
doubt that Oh the whole the winter wheat crop
wilLfall short Of that of last year. It is clear
that the market during the next two or three

The obstacle to the general substitution of
aluminium for iron and steel in the arts has
been the high cost Of extracting it from tho
native clay. This has been partially overcome
by progressive improvements in the process of
manufacture, but still aluminium remains too
costly to be thought of as substitute for the
baser metals. Notwithstanding its advantages
in other respects. The reported discovery Of
extraordinarily rich deposits Of aluminium in
Alabama and Georgia indicates long step
forward for the white metal. Six counties in
these two states are said to be underlaid with
bauxite ore, some Of which has yielded rs
high as As per cent. Of pure aluminium. II

SHEEP NOTES.


A Few Choice Clippings From EA,
changes ON This subject.
Sheep are the poor mans best friend.
All farmers should keep some sheep to their
gain.
We consider sheep one Of the best paying
branches Of farm economy.
Sheep are at the front as revenue producers
on the ordinary farm.
There is proitin raising sheep for mutton
| alone. The wool is all additional profit.
The demand for nice lamb and good mutton
is increasing faster than the supply.
The sheep never dies in debt. The wool on
| his hide is worth enough to pay funeral. ex-
penses.
We believe that about the best thing the ag.
ricultural press Of the country can do for the
farmer is to enter upon persistent campaign
of education upon the subject of sheep grow
ing.
The beginner in farming, who must make
his living off the farm and has but few out
side expenses, will End the sheep a valuable
aid. 1t furnishes income for seed used in the
spring. and for taxes and other fall and early
winter expenses. And while it lifts the
mortgage it does not denlete the farm but en-
riches it.
The editors are loud In their belief in the
Importance of the sheep industry, and its value
to farmers. We feel that many could add to
their profits and improve their farms by keep
ing flock of sheep. Many pastures will grow
better all the time if some sheep are kept in
them.
Sheep husbandry is destined to assume very
great Importance in this country. It appears
to be the industry Which cannot produce
supply equal to the demand. The wants Of
our population in clothing will even more than
keep pace with our wool production. II sheep
may be fed to a profit in England on land
worth $400 an acre, we should not be deferred
from sheep feeding on lands worth from SIS to
SIS per acre.

Bro. Hunt seems to have been hard hit by
our thrust accusing him of desire to gain
notoriety. 'The CALLED jade always winces."
He says ''the PIONEER is too insignifcantly
blind to deserve notice." and then goes on and
gives it a half column in bourgeois Of that
snotice" of which, according to the Tribune,
1t is not deserving.
However, on one point in the said ''notice''
we agree with Bro Hunt-that he was soon
sistent' in his defence Of s'Mr. Ayres," though
just why it should be called ''decently consist
ent' we cannot quite understand.
OF course we do not claim to be SO good q
s'reader' as Bro. Hunt-he used to teach

school how to read before he BECAME the high
and exaulted editor of that great reform news.

do claim to know how to read print, even
though we do not claim to equal him in book
larnin'. and if the reckless arraign,nent by
Ayres of the judges who condemned the Chi
cago anarchists to death is not defence Of
the anarchists who threw the bombs and who
melted them to do so, then we would like
Bro. Hunt to inform US what it is. There are
only two editors (?) in the whole state who
have the unlimited gall necessary for de-
fence of Ayres-the one is known all OYER the
state as rattle brain-the other one is known
over about half OF Steele county as-well the
people who read his great reform newspaper

P. H. E. SLOAN,
Sec. and Trear,

We see that Golf, the scallawag-
Republican, behind whom Judge
simonton hid while delivering
that parricidal stab at the
sovereignty of his native State,
has broken out in & new place,
and this time he has declared war
on petticoats instead of COM
monwealths. At Parkersburg,
West Va, this fellow Golf sent a
comely young woman to the peni-
tentiary, besides imposing a fine,
for operating a moonshine still.
Her husband was in jail for killing
a man, and the wife took up this
business to make a support for her
little children.
And while ON this subject We
would remark that Judge Simon
ton has been doing some tall
crawfishing of late, and is going
square back On his past record.
In. the first place, be sustained

:sary issue, and has made the

spung. Their reliance was on
Simonton's onesided court; and
since he has decided to make
scape-goat of his old <chums, they
realize the fact that they are
leaning on a broken staff. Then
again, Judge Simonton has taken
a double e-back-sommersaulto on the
railroad question, and refused to
interfere in a case from Fairfield
county that seems to "a man up
the thee" an exact counterpart of
the one for which he has now the
gallant Riser Eeld in contempt.
But Judge Simonton managed to
split a legal hair and slip through
the crack. He is now roundly
abused by both the people and
the railroads, Sheriff Riser is
having good time. Judge
simonton did not dare to send
him to jail, as the anti-organs
threatened, and he is boarded in
Charleston at the expense of Uncle
Sam. Poor Fance now fully
realizes the fact that he tumbled
on his knees too soon and it is
said that he has crawled into a
hole: near Due West and pulled
the hole in after him.-Piedmont'

HITS HIM HARD.
Gov. Tillman Expresses His Opin-
ion of Judge Simonton's Deci-
sion.

Columbia, S. G. March. TO-
Governor Tlllman expressed his
opinion to-day on Judge Simon
toms decision in reference to the
dispensary act. He said that as
he was away at the time the deci-
sion was rendered, he took the, first
opportunity Of expressing himself.
He said:
81 consider it a more outrage
GUS invasion of State rights than
anything yet coming from the
source and it bears all the marks
of ajob gotten ZIP between Simon
ton and those two lawyers to give
him an opportunity to hedge by
a seeming decision in favor of the
state to obliterate the unfavorable
decision in the railroad cases. If
this is not so, how did he get up
such an elaborate opinion in 30
short:a time? He knew he had no
jurisdiction in this case and say
50 but he could have said itin
three words and dismissed the
request for an injunction without
goinginto such long and labored
opinion over it.
Il expect him to propose a
receiver for the Governors Office
before 1 go out, but ne will have
happy time getting possession Of
it for: he has to maintain an in
junction against the execution.
The part to which I object is that
he should claim in the slightest
degree that he has anything to do
with the states dispensary law.
He had no right to pass upon it in
any form whatever or take
cognizance of it under any cir:
cumstance,. until it, went into
operation"
