PERTINENT AND IMPERTINENT

To the Taxpayers Of San Antonio:
Why did Bryan Callaghan pay
$500 for a steam roller that had
been offered to him by another
agent for $500?
Why did Bryan Callaghan pay
himself 5000, out Of tho garbage
fund, for a lot he did not own?
And why did he pay Mrs. Mary
Callaghan $4,000, out Of the street
improvement fund, for lot the
city did not need?
Why did Bryan Callaghan pay
Sl9S,OOO for the City hall, when the
contract was let for $4,000? Why
did Bryan Callaghan pay from
twelve to sixteen thousands for
several bridges in this city, when
better bridges could have been
built for seven thousand dollars
each? Why did Bryan Callaghan
pay four million dollars for city
improvements, when the same inn
prOvements could have been
made for half that amount?
Truly Bryan's was a bust
ness administration, with a
vengeance; but who got the benefit
OF his business arrangements?
Did the honest tax payers who
footed his bills get the benefit Of
these lavish expenditures? or did
Bryan Callae han and his minions,
who pay no taxes get it?
Business Business !! Bust
ness 80! Oh! what a "business"
head Bryan has! Wonderful
head
Bryan knows how to spend the
taxpayers money, he does. Bryan
knows how to keep from paying
his own taxes, he does. Bryan

all his friends, at the expense
Of the taxpayers, he does.
Bryan knows how to feather his
own nest, he does. Yes, Bryan is up
to ears in business, he is. Bryan
knows business" when he meets
it in the road, he really does. And
what great head Bryan has got
Big as bushel measure Too big

so big that Bryan must needs get

Little Falls showed forty-two bushels
The average results Of other grains
are not yet known authenticity. Har-
vesting is general between Aldrich and
Perham, where crops are immense. At
the former point some grain has been
threshed, yielding as follows: Rye
4312, barley, 10; and oats as high as 100
bushels an acre. 1t is estimated wheat
will average twenty-five bushels.
Little Falls & Dakota Branch-Har-
Eesting is in full sway along this
branch; Nest grain is found to be
IN much better condition and will yield
heavier than was expected. No thresh-
ing has been done yet, except some rye
at Sauk Center, which gave from
twenty-five to thirty bushels an acre
Northern Pacific, Fergus & Black
Hills Rranch-Fully half of the grain
is cut and in shock. Weather has been

A PRINCES COLONY.
Austrians to Be Placed on Farms


Austrians to Be Placed on Farms
in the West.
NEW YORK, Aug. 10.-Austrian
residents in New York are interested
in the movements of Prince Johann
Sapieha, one of the foremost men of
the Austrian empire. He has been
in Chicago, and is expected here late
this month. He came over several
weeks ago. His arrival was not
known until he bought big tract Of
land in the West, on which he is to
found a colony for his countrymen,
similar to that established by Baron
De Hirsch several years ago.
Prince Sapieha is heir to one of
the oldest and wealthiest principal
tiles in Austria. He is twenty-seven
years old and is unmarried. His
principal object in establishing a
colony is to give relief to his coun-
trymen who emigrated to Brazil
them, and the treatment they re-
ceive at the hands of the Brazilian
government is a source of hardship
to them.
Emigrants direct from Austria will
also be invited to go to the colony
1t is said the terms offered by the
prince will be even more generous
than those given by Baron De
Hirsch. The location of the tract
purchased it not known. The prince
was assisted in the search by Count
Lubienski, now a resident of Chi
cago.

READ WHAT AN EXPERT
On Water Says After ThOrOughIy
Testing Kinks New Discov-
cry, and No Longer Be in
Doubt as to Its Mer-

Paul Meyen, residing at 1452 South
Sixteenth street, Omaha, Neb., an ex-
pert on water, having experimental
on all kinds of water, especially the
waters found in the West, says: .sMy
wife and 1 have made some thorough
tests of Kinks Eos and find it to be
an article of great merit. We followed
the directions carefully and obtained
the most astonishing results. We have
hau a wide experience in washing del
icate fabrics with delicate colors, and
could never find anything to prevent
the colors from running before without
using expensive chemical preparation
Kinks Eos is a grand invention. 1t
makes the water as soft as the softest
rain water, and the clothes washed in
water prepared with this preparation
came out perfectly white and clean
without using any soap whatever, and
in my estimation, and according to the
thorough tests we have given it will
do just what is claimed for it. The
people are fortunate to have such a
meritorious preparation placed upon
the market within the range of the
poorest families. I could not consist
emily do otherwise than recommend it
to everybody. 1 shall not use anything
else as long as l can purchase this
preparation

Dakota Division-Cutting of all
grains has commenced in earnest.

cellent quality, and will grade high.
Sanborn, Cooperstown &. Turtle
Mountain Branch-Harvest will be gen

section.

CAUSED BY VACCINATION.

From the Journal, Detroit, Mich.
Every one in the vicinity of Meldrum
avenue and Champlain street, Detroit,
knows Mrs. Mcdonald, and many a
neighbor has reason to feel grateful to
her for the kind and friendly interest
she has manifested in cases of illness.
She is a kind-hearted friend, a ma
tural nurse, and an intelligent and re-
fined lady.
To a reporter she recently talked at
some length about DR.. Williams Pink
Pills, giving some very interesting in
stances in her own immediate knowl-
edge of marvellous cures, and the uni
versal benefcence of the remedy to
those who had used it.
'I have reason to know" said Mrs.
Mcdonald, something of the worth
of this medicine, for it has been DEM
onstrated in my own immediate fam
lily. My daughter Kittie is attending
high school, and has never been very
strong since she began. I suppose she
studies hard, and she has quite a dis
tance to go every day. When the small
pox broke out all of the school children
had to be vaccinated. I took her over
to DR.. Jameson and he vaccinated her
/ never saw such an arm in my life
and the doctor said he never did She
was broken out on her shoulders and
back and was just as sick as she could
be. To add to it all neuralgia set in,
and the poor child was in misery She
is naturally of a nervous temperament
and she suffered most awfully. Even
after she recovered the neuralgia did
not leave her. Stormy days or days
that were damp or preceded a storm,
she could not go out at ALL She was
pale and thin, and had no appetite.
81 have forgotten just who told me
about the Pink Pills, but I got some
for her and they cured her right up.
She has a nice color in her face, eats
and sleeps we'll, goes to school every
day, and is well and strong in every
particular. I have never heard of
anything to build up the blood to COM
pare with Pink Pills. I shall always
keep them in the house and recon-
mend them to my neighbors."
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People are considered an unfailing spe-
cific in such diseases as locomotor
ataXia, partial paralysis. St Vitus'
dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism
nervous headache, the after-effects OF
la grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale
and sallow complexions, that tired feel
ing resulting from nervous prostra-
ton; all diseases resulting from
vitiated humors in the blood, such as
scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc. They
are also a specific for troubles peculiar
to females, such as suppressions, ir-
regularities, and all forms of weak
ness In men they effect a radical cure
in all cases arising from mental worry,
overwork, or excuses of whatever
nature. Dr. Williams Pink Pills are
sold by all dealers, or will be sent post
paid on receipt Of price go cents a
box or six boxes for S2.50-they are
never sold in bulk or by the 1000 by ad-

KIRK'S EOS Elixir of Soap)

The many purposes for which it
was designed:
Eos was designed to be a perfect soap
powder, a powder that would do the
family washing better than it had ever
been done before, with less labor and
without the use of a particle of soap.
To accomplish such wonderful results
the best equipped laboratory in the
United States has been bending every
effort for years past.
We believe the public of st. Paul are
fully aware that when a piece of
goods passes the crucial test of the
chemist in charge of this extensive
laboratory and the preparation
energies from the factory bearing the
name and trade mark of Jas. S. Kirk
& Co. that it must be as near perfect
as modern science can make it.
Among thu other advantages Eos
has over any other washing powder on
the worlds market today are: That a
little Eos in the water makes it soft
and velvety. Any one putting their
hands in water prepared with Eos will
almost Immediately exclaim: my,
this water feels like satin!'
In washing printed goods prepara
ton should be used that will prevent
colors from running. We guarantee
Eos, if used according to directions,
will accomplish this.
We also guarantee that Eos will pre-
vent fanneis and woolens from shrink
ing a particle and that If you wash
your f1annels in water in which LOS
is. used that they will come. out of the
wash soft, teecy and white. For ali
