by old fashioned moralists that no

the Trusty has been unfortunate in

in being caught Many a man is
out who ought to be id, if justice
was evenly dealt to all. But, be that
as it may, the prison TRUSTEES have
at least the natural right to espouse
the cause of the political party
which they prefer, and any dirty
fling because they are conViets is
contemptible.

KANSAS WOMEN.

Oh men heroic, noble, grand
Who first reared homes on Kansas land,
Who dared the field, the food, the fell
That Freedom in our land might dwell,
Who braved the red mans hostile knife
And grded for constant strife,
Who turned the furrow, titled the sod,
While treacherous foemen near thee trod,
And oft thy life currents ebb and gush
Hath stained the corn with crimson blush.
We neer can pay thy holy debt,
Nor shall our country soon forget
That through thy blood and tears and toll
Thou hast bequeathed us Freedoms soil.
The school-boy at mis- lessons reads
The Inspiring record of thy deeds.
The artists brush-the historians pen
Repeat thy victories Ger again.
And many marble shaft is reared
To keep thy names for aye revered.
Oh honor we'll those heroes grand
Who first built homes on Kansas land.
But there were hearts of purest mold
Whose tale of courage ne'er was told
True heroes who armOr wore
Yet shared the trials that ye bore,
Braving with courage none the less
The savage and the wilderness,
Guarding the cabin rough and rude
While strong hands toed in search of food.
And waiting oft with tears that burned
For loved ones steps that ne'er returned
No pen inscribed, no rage hath seen
The record of thy tOrtures been,
As heroic mother, toilng wife,
Braving the ills of frontier life, ..a
Clothed with no power in church or state,
No word in worship or debate,
With faith-lit brow, and helping hand :"
Asking but by your side to stand.
Thew. too, reared homes on Kansas land.
Around their path no dangers grew
So great they could not share with you
They made their sad selfsacrifice
Before no worlds admiring eyes.
Of mans remembrance thinking not,
Content to toll and be forgot,
They had no hope later day
Its tribute of renown would pay ..
No prairie city broad and free,
No rivers as they run
Bear these heroic women's names, '''''

Is a common exclamation at this sea-
son. There is a certain bracing effect
in cold air which is lost when the
weather grows warmer; and when
Nature is renewing her youth, her
admirers feel dull, sluggish and tired.
This condition is owing mainly to the
impure condition of the blood, and its
failure to supply healthy tissue to the
various organs of the body. 1t is re-
markable how susceptible the system
is to the help to be derived from a
good medicine at this season. Poss-
essing just those purifying, building
up qualities which the body Graves.

The Missouri Stone.

l. NJ. Adams: l have just returned
from II trip to the western part of the
state. Farmers are pretty well along
with seeding out there, although only
IA portion of the country west of the
Missouri river is engaged in wheat
raising. Live stock and grain make
that section one of the most desirable
in the state to do business in. j. M.
Tracey at Taylor station, in Stark
county, raises from LOCO to 1000 acres
of wheat every year, and raises no
cattle, and that part of Stark county
is also largely engaged in wheat rails
ing, while the western part of the
county is in live stock.
This section of North Dakota has
been too little thought of, yet 1T is
bound to come to the front. There
are no counties in the state safer to
do business in than Stark, Morton OF
Billings, the Red River valley is not
all of North Dakota. and when the
great stretch of country reaching from
the Missouri river to the Montana
line-lS0 miles-shall be covered with
tlocks of sheep and herds of cattle, we
will be prouder than ever Of our
great common wealth.
The larger part of this vast en-
panse of country is tributary to Dick
insom, which makes tins town one of
the best in the state. 1t is surprising
what IL fine town Dickinson has be.

court house, school buildings and

ces, show the thrift of the people and
what can be accomplished in Il new
country in ten years.

The Dakota Land and Coloni-
cation Co. has paid, under protest,
taxes levied on that part of their
land through which the Northern
Pacific has the right of way. The
company claims that this land is
taxed under the special act by
which the Northern Pacific is
taxed and that for them to pay is
equivalent to giving the county a
double revenue on the same prop
erty. For example, the Dakota
Land and Colonization Co. owns
section four, adjoining the town
of Dickinson, through which the
Northern Pacific has the right of
way from east to west-four rods
wide-amounting to forty-eight and
forty-eight one-hundredths acres;
this land is assessed at the highest
rate per acre of any land in Stark
county. 1t affects this company
in alike manner on their real estate
in other parts of the county, anc
it also affects every land owner ii
the county to a greater or less ex-
tent through whose land the
Northern Pacific has the right o:
way. 1t involves an interesting
point, and the Attorney Genera
has been asked for an opinion.

The supreme court has unani-
mously decided the state peniten-
tiary controversy in favor of the
old board, which sustains Judge
Winchester in the lower courts and
makes N. F. Boucher warden.
This decision practically settles
the agricultural college case, as it
is parallel with this one. On the
constitutionality of the law author
izing the senate to confirm certain
appointments, the court holds to
the principle that the legislature
is all powerful except as restricted
by the constitution, while the cN-
ecutive has only such powers as
are expressly delegated to him by
the constitution and by legislation

now residing in this country, went
into effect. Under its provisions
every Chinaman who has not al
ready registered and filed his pho
tograph with the United States
authorities in the town which he
resides is liable to arrest and i'm
prisonment. Orders have been
issued, however, that no arrests be
made until the constitutionality
of the law is settled. The proper
authorities have never appeared in
Dickinson, so our Cinnamon are
innocent even though they are not

Sunday morning, May I, Mrs. Henry

The circumstances connected with

a quiet and exemplary lady, and was
highly esteemed by everyone who
had made her acquaintance.
Services were held at the Presbyte-

was filled to its utmost capacity.by

UNDER the editorial manage
ment of Finley A. Grant, it would
seem that the Fargo Common
wealth was to be the official expo
nent of the state democratic party.
Editor Grant is a clear and frank
writer; and being in the office of
the~ state railroad commission at
Bismarck, it is quite natural to eN-
pect that his editorials will be
close to the present state admins
tration.
