Fargo Forum: The farmers who get
rich farming are the fellows who get hold
of new speciality before it is run to
earth by competition. Such were the
early cranberry growers, the early pear
orchardists, the early strawberry men;
and more recently, the early southern
truck growers and peach raisers. The
men who first find out where and how to
grow what the people want, make money.

UNITED MINE WORKERS

GETTING DOWN TO BUSINESS IN THEIR CON-
 vENTloN--wHo' ILL BE PREsIDENT?
 COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 12.--The United Mine Workers convention was called to order this morning at 10.o'clock by Presi- dent Phil H. Penna. He made no opening remarks, but at once proceeded to business by calling for the roll committee on cre- dentials.
 There were no contests. Richard Staun- ton of Bartonville, Ill.,, was given seat in the convention. He reports a local union nearly all the members of which have been in jail since the Debs strike, and who had been unable to pay their dues.
 President Penna then announced the committee on distributions, rules and order of business, grievances, resolutions and legislation. The most important of these is the committee on resolutions, which is composed of T. A. Bradley of Pennsylva- mia, William Richards of Ohio, John Cairns of Pennsylvania, George Purcell oi Indiana and Jerry Meade of West Virginia. At noon the convention adjourned until 1:30 to give the committee on rules and order of business time to prepare their re- ports. The reports of committees occu- pied the afternoon session.
 There is great deal of speculation as to who will be elected president, but the con- sensus of opinion seems to be that Pen na will be successful after hard fight.

4 NEE DISCOVERY BY THE SHAKERS.

For more than hundred years the Mount Lebanoa Shakers have studied the cultiva- ton of medicinal plants and sought to ex- tract from them their healing essences. Their labor has not been spent in vain. They have made discovery that will prove a blessing to mankind. It consists of cordial that causes immediate relief in cases of indigestion. The importance of this discovery will be apparent when we realize that nearly nineteenth hs of all our suffer- ings are caused by dyspepsia or indiges- tion. Nearly every person you meet nas this digestive trouble in some of it's varied forms-Sick headache, distress after eating, pain and fullness In the chest after eating, palpitation of the heart, etc., are but symptoms of indigestion. To relieve these sufferings has been the study of the Sha- kers, aud they have succeeded. The req son the Shaker Digestive Cordial has such an immediate and salutary effect is that 1t causes the food eaten to be digested, for 1t is undigested food that causes the distress. The Cordial causes the food to be digested before there is time for it to ferment and sour on the stomach. When tbe food IS so dgested it gives strength and vigor to the feeble body, makes one feel bright and cheerful aud makes one gain in flesh.
 The Digestive Cordial is so prompt in its action that the very first dose will have perceptibly favorable result. It gives im- mediate relief
 In order to prove this statement small trial botlles have been placed In the drug gsts' hands, which can be obtained for 10 cents each. This trial bottle will have decidedly beneficial effect, and will satisfy any one that the Cordial is adapted to hls case. After a trial give praise to the Sha- kers of Mount Lebanon, N. Y.

 ARE DOING GOOD WORK.
 LONDON, Feb. 12.-A dispatch to the Central News from Tokio says General Oyama reports under date of February 8 that on that morning the fleet bombarded the Liu- Kung- Tao and William forts at Wei-Hai- Wei and blew up the magazine of the latter. The Chinese warship Chen Yuen was again badly damaged and slowly steamed about the harbor, using her small guns only. The torpedo wires at the west- ern entrance to the harbor were cut.
 The admiral of the fleet reports that on February the eastern forts were shelling the enemy's ships, and 8 portion of the Japanese squadron was sLelling the east ern forts on Liu- Kung Tao for the purpose of diverting the attention of the enemy. The Chinese ships which had returned to the inner harbor again made their appear. ance and opened fire. Two shells from the eastern forts struck the Chen uen, which immediately sank head first, showing her propellers as she went down.
 The army motors at the western entrance to the harbor were bombarding Liu-Kung- Tao yesterday evening and the squadron destroyed 8 portion of the boom obstruc. tion. It is expected that the opening of the western entrance will be completed to- night. The William fort has been silent since the blowing up of it's magazine, and 1t has probably been evacuated. The Jap anese having captured the euemy's torpedo boat, the enemy's ships are firing machine guns nightly in order to avert g torpedo attack upon them.

k. A. Gum, M. D., of New York city, is known to the medical profession and to the public throughout the entire land. He has had an opportunity of seeing peoples needs, both as professor of surgery in the United States Medical College and in his extensive practice. In speaking about one of his patients who was afflicted with the most terrible of all, modern maladies, Bright's disease of the kidneys, he said
 "A chemical and microscopical examina- tion of the patients urine revealed quanti- ties of albumen and granular tube casts, confirming Brights disease. After trying all of the other remedies in vain, directed him to use Warner's Safe Cure. was greatly surprised to observe decided im- provement within a month. Within four months no tube casts could be found, and only a trace of albumen, and, as he ex, pressed it, be felt perfectly well."
 Dr. Gunn's experience only confirms what other physicians and millions of peo- pie have known for many years-tbat for all female troubles, all kidney difficulties, and eveu Bright's disease itself, there is but one standard, one well known remedy in the world, and that is Warner's Safe Cure. If you are suffering from any symp- toms, such as pain in the back /occasionaI nausea, pains in the muscles, bearing down sensations, or any of those unmis- takable signs which indicate the coming on of this great trouble, you should not delay moment, but be warned in time.

THE DEBS JURY
DISCHARGED BY JUDGE GRossCUP AND THE
 CASE CONTINUED.

DISCHARGED BY JUDGE GRoSSCUP AND THH
 CASE CONTINUED.
 CHICAGO, Feb. 12.--The Debs jury was discharged tbis morning and the case was set for a new trial on the first Monday in May. The physician attending Juror James c. Coe, whose illness has caused the hitch in the proceedings, this morning declared that the sick man would not be able to re- sume his duties as juror for at least thirty days.
 Judge Grosscup then held conference with the counsel of both sides, and it was agreed to leave the matter to the courts discretion. When court finally convened at Il o'clock Attorney Gregory for the de- fense moved that the jury be discharged |, again empaneled and twelfth juror se- cured. To this the government objected and the motion was denied. MT. Gregory then made motion that the present trial continue, but that the taking of testimony be adjourned from time to time until Juror Coe was ready for duty. Meanwhile the court was to dispose of the jury as he thought proper.
 Judge Grosscup said that such course men in custody for Airty days, he said would be an infiction unnecessary pun ishment. On the othe{ hand it would be decidedly improper on} his part to allow Nthe men to mingle with the people and then resume the hearing. He therefore denied the motion.
 The trial was set for May to suit the con- venience of the couH. The Debs habeas corpus proceedings will occupy the greater Grosscup will hold court at Peoria.
