Senator Hansbrough: Permanent
prosperity cannot come to any country
whose financial system is framed in the

equity IN a system which prescribes So
per human head (the amount Of the
worlds gold) as the money measurement
of all other wealth.
State Senator E. G. Kennedy, of Eure.
ka, s. D., was IN Wllllamsport Wedncs-

1t seems to be impossible to make trees
in large areas live on the upland prairie
in this region. Ry long odds, George
Whalen, of the south half of this county,
has given his timber-claim the most hard
work. For years he had the finest grove
that has been raised by any of our
settlers. But we are Informed that a
great many of the trees died last winter.
An exchange says that Walter Parkin
has wagered $500 with Fort Yates
bicyclist that he can drive to Mandan

to leave Yates for Mandan at the same
time, and to make the trip in six hours
or better, and the one arriving first wins
the stakes.
