A stranger wandering around town
might think the Inhabitants were in
fear of an attack from some dreaded
enemy, and had thrown up tortif1ca-
tions of earth. Such is not the case,
however, and those piles of what ap-
pear to be dirt are intermingled with
snow, and as the snow disappears the
mother earth more boldly shows Its
color.

It is said that the sheriff found in
Taylors cellar enough bottles of every

bottles nuke up in numbers what they
lack in beauty. Verify our first citi-
zen was a fellow of good spiritsI-ked-

The editor of the Herald had an idea
that the hard times were all in 'drouth
cursed Dakota" and so he recently
made out subscription bills amounting
to over 800, against subscribers out
side of the state, and sent them out for
the purpose of bringing in foreign
capital and relieving the financial con-
dition of the manager of the Herald.
Up to the present writing not a single
dollar had been received from these
bills, and we have come to the conclu-
sion that Dakota is not the only place
where people are hard up.
