Senator Pettigrew has introduced
a bill for a commission Of the powers
of Great Britain, Russia, Japan and the
United States to settle the Behring Sea
sealing question, failing in which the bill
further provides that In case the com
mission fails to reach an agreement OF a
satisfactory character. the secretary of
the treasury Is to be authorized to kill all
the seals in American waters and dispose
OF their skins. The theory of the meas
ure is that without absolute protection
under International arrangements the
seals will eventually be exterminated,
by poachers and others operating under
shadow Of authority, aud that this
government might as we'll reap a harvest
OF profit by anticipating their destruc-
ton. 1t is a project to secure the val ue
Of the seals to the treasury Of the United
State, instead Of giving the property
over to individuals. Men Of practical
experience among the seal herds OF
Alaska deem it impossible to prevent the
annual slaughter of seals that is rapidly
reducing their number.

ALL, Proprietor,

In an extended write up for the
Minneapolis journal of about a dozen
candidates in South Dakota for the
United States Senate, Doane Robinson
has this to say of the most deserving
and worthy man of the lot: Thomas
Sterling, of Redtield, lives in Maj. Pick
ler's front ward, politically speaking,
which is not intended to infer that
Picker lives in anybody's back yard;
but SPHINX county the gateway to the
Faulkton country, has always been loyal
to it's Western neighbor, ard, indeed, this
home strength has peel the primary
force IN his potency. This year Splnk
county is not likely to send a Plckler
delegation to Pierre. Thomas Sterling
was q senator in the first legislature. and
IN 1891 received the republican caucus
nomination for the United States senator
after Moody had been abandoned. In
the next Joint session OF the Legislature
he received 60 votes. On that day -
votes would have been a majority of all
cast. After this the influence of w. w.
Taylor became dominant in Sphinx
county and Tom Sterling wisely attend
ed his farm and his law business and
bided his time. The Taylor party has
lost its grip Il think | can s~ubstantiate
this statement) and Tom Sterling's
friends are again In the Saddle. and, |
am told, will MAKE an effort to land the
senatorship next year. MIR. Sterling rs
about 10. lie is of good form and dig
nitied carriage, studious in habit and
serious and conservative in temperament.
He resides on a fine farm neal North
vile and practices law in Redield. He
is a man of pure life, sterling integrity
and marked ability.

The provisions in the New York ballot
Law requiring the voter to mark his ballot

cross. At the last election they used
and they were thrown out and not

The ANTI Cigarette League has been
established in all OF the ninety five
grammar schools Of New York City.
The league now numbers forty thou
sand public school boys.
The noble little school boys Of New
York City are entering heartily into the
crusade against cigarette smoking ard
are organizing branches OF the School
boys Anti Cigarette League in about all
the schools there. Their example
should be emulated by all the schools Of
our cities, because there is no vice TAX
ing hold Of our young nowadays that
begins to compare with that of cigarette
smoking. Boys begin to smoke these
pernicious Little rolls because they think
it manly, but when they begin to under
stand the dwarfing and facilitating ef-
fects of inhaling a compound Of nico.
tine, the acr,d oil of tobacco, and the
volatile oil Of paper into their lungs it is
believed they will readily enter into a
combination for mutual strength to
| fight such an insiduous foe to humanity.
The Anti Cigarette League has a con.
stitutlon and is a regular organization.
The following is the pledge:
We, the. undersigned, do hereby
pledge ourselves upon honor:
First-From this date to abstain from
smoking cigarettes in any form until
we reach the age of 81 years.
Second-To use all the influence that
we possess to induce all public school

auce 10 abstain from smoking cigarettes
until such boys shall attain the age OF
81 years.

TROUBLED WITH HIS TEETH.
Charles Gordon Had His Baby
Teeth Until Two Years Ago.

Charles Gordon, janitor in the
Arkansas Pass general offices, is
having trouble with his teeth. He
is twenty-six years old and did not
lose his baby teeth until two years
ago, when they had to be pulled
out to allow his second teeth to
grow. He still has three baby
teeth left, which are now as sound
as ever. But his second teeth are
trying to come out, and unless the
first teeth are removed, they will
grow out at the side. Beside this
he has only one upper front tooth,
instead of two. There ought to be
two upper front teeth, with the di-
viding line in the middle. The
tooth is where the division ought
to be, and will also very likely
have to be removed. Gordon says
he has never had toothache in his
life, and he has yet to suffer his
first pain in the teeth, all of which
are sound.
