James u. Blaine, Jr., famous for being
the son Of his father and figuring as de-
PENDANT IN q recent divorce suit, was q
visitor in Pembins Sunday and Monday
of this week, says the st. Thomas Times.
He came in from Helena, Mont. His
business at the county seat was to look
after a certain %thirty.seven and a half
acre piece of land to which the Blaine
estate has an imperfect title. The land
is part Of the old Enos Stutsman farm
just outside Of the city limits Of Penn

Of ex-Auditor John Kabernsgle. The
appearance of young Blaine at the
county seat caused quite a ripple Of -

The report from Dickinson is emf

1t is estimated by the best judges that
the average yield of the fields cut will
not be greater than eight bushels.
There Is, however, another reason
why Dickinson and every other county
should refuse TO contribute wheat
under this plan IL has been currently
reported that this wheat to be contrib.

STORIES ABOUT CLEVELAND.


The President said to Have Been Operated
On for Cancer of the Mouth.
WAsHINGToS, Aug, 2g-The report
that the president was recently oper-
ated upon for the removal of a cancer
in the mouth is discredited by all the
officials approached upon the subject
President Cleveland is extremely adj
verse to public discussion of his
health, and his friends are naturally
governed by his wishes
One of them, who is in n position to
know, says the best refutation of the
reports about the serious illness of the
president lies in the fact he is making
preparations for a return to Washing
ton, and will probably be here before
the week closes
A member of the cabinet told a re-
porter that he had seen the president
frequently since the date of the alleged
operation and never noticed the slight
est indication of such thing, nor had
he heard of it. Consequently he was
confident the report was erroneous.
