THE GRANDEST REMEDY.

Mr.. r. B. Greeve, merchant Of Chilho-
vie, Va, certifes that he had consump-
ton, was given up to die, sought all medi-
cal treatment that money could procure,
tried all cough remedies he could hear of,

sitting up in chair; was induced to try
DR.. Kings New Discovery, and was
cured by use of two bottles. For past
three years has been attending to bust
less, and says DR.. Kings New Discovery
is the grandest remedy ever made, as it
has done SO much for him and also for
others in his community. DR.. Kings

Whatever made this universe did its
best work when it made man. There are
in him characteristics and aspirations
and high scale of operation that God
has not worked at in anything else.
There is enough in a man to strike him
dumb in admiration of himself. He
made man on high scale and He is
eternallly pledged to give him everlasting
life. He cannot now desert him. All the
universe contributes to his life, his pleas
ure, to satisfy his longings and aspira-
ton"

Many of us seem to think that so long
as we keep out of hell we are getting
about all we have right to expect out
of religion. A lost soul is worse than
hell itself. There are souls walking these
streets every day who are lost-lost.
They have no faith in God, no confidence
in their fellow man. The mothers idol
has been crushed, the wife's love has
been betrayed, forfeited, lost"

Say They Are Mining Gold.

General Passenger Agent Buchanan
of the Elkhorn emphatically denies the
reports of inactivity in gold mining
among the Black Hills sent out by the
miners there. There is considerable
work going on there. A recent engi.
neering report shows 5000 square miles
of gold bearing rock among the Hills.
Not to exceed twenty-five square miles
have been prospected. 1t is estimated
that that there are 100000 acres of pla>
Ger ground in Pennington and Custer
counties. There are large number of
mines now shipping ore from Potsdam.

A Surprise Farewell Reception.

The Center Point, Iowa. Herald gives
the following account of surprise fare
we'll reception that was given Mr.. and
Mrs. Nj. Mclaughlin on the Monday
evening prior to their departure for this
city:
A surprise farewell reception was
given Comrade Mont. Mclaughlin and
his good wife Monday evening at the
residence of Mr.. and Mrs Joseph kubias
by the members of Denison Post, Corps,
Camp, and friends.
Everything had been arranged to have
grand social time, but it was generally
understood that no refreshments were
to be served. At eight o'clock sharp
(,he time desighated) Macks fortress
was charged on and in less time than it
takes to tell it we had full possession of
the works, and, as usual after such
bloodless victories, everybody cut loose
for high old time, and didn't We have
it? Well, | guess so, and had it not
been for tine restraint placed upon our
hilarious inclinations by the presence OF
"our chaplain" no doubt the surgeon
would have been obliged to make a
special requisition for supplies in the
way of half rations and double duty.
But listen: The long roll beats A
surprise The former occupants have
full possession of the works and have
turned their guns on us, and bang
whish whish! whish! napkins! Boom!
bang! pop! pop! whiz angel food,
pound cake and cookies, cream cake,
fruit cake and coffee, were fred at us
without stint or warning and il seemed
but a moment until all were down.
Hit? Yes, right in the mouth.
ut Is swate to die for ones country,
But bedad, can't help but abhor
Thin battles where people get hurted.
Since Mickey got kilt in the war;"
The most serious casualty was caused
by the top button of John Ads picnic
suit flying off and striking both our
commander and adjutant in their ab
sence, though We are glad to learn that
their wounds are not liable to prove
serious, as both are able to sit in an
easy chair.
Comrade Mclaughlin, our good
wishes 60 with you. We have fully for
given you on that divy up in the fish
deal. and we only wish that you may
choose a partner in the Hills who
knows whose fish is this?" from whose
fish it that ?"-wherever you drive your
stake. And SO Sister Mclaughlin: We
hope you may find that which is far
more precious than gold-health. ay
home to Center Point with you next
fall, and again enjoy many such even
ings an that Of last Monday.

A Notable Change.

s. M. Clark, in the Keokuk, Iowa,
Gate City, submits the following in re-
lation to the change noted at the White
House, while upon a recent visit. He
says: Mckinley starts off well. He
has made his relation to Washington
city and the people that of Lincoln, and
you can feel everywhere that an atmos-
phere of good will is pervsding all about
him. The people know as if by instinct
when president loves and trusts them,
and they are quick to respond to it. His
sending away the police and detectives
and soldiers, his free admittance of
every body, his daily walks among the
people on the avenues and streets, has
swept the heart Of Washington on his
side Under Cleveland the official
austerity Of Washington has not been
very different from St. Petersburg and
the rule Of the czar. Mckinley has
brought back in day the free rule Of
the people, and one can feel the differ
ence. 1t may not be wise from the
standpoint of personal safety, and yet it
is the highest wisdom. A man can die
but once. Cleveland, who sent a SUBJ
stitute to the war, guarded himself from
danger like the most timid OF the sui
tans. Mckinley marched in the ranks
as a soldier, and that cured the fear Of
physical death. Now the people have
made him president, and he is going to
show that he trusts them, and he drops
the fear Of physical death at the hands
of q crank out of the case because he is
the chiefofseyenty millions free people
who are not cranks. That is wisdom
and craftsmanship. If as an enlisted
soldier he was willing to take the risk
at any hour Of four years to be killed
for the government of the people, why
as the four years Of the presidential
head Of all those people should he be
more cowardly? There are no murder
Gus passions Of any sort now left in our
politics There would be no limit to
the rage of the seventy millions of
Americans now if anyone should harm
Mckinley because he has dismissed
police and detectives and soldiers and
trusted his countrymen."

Rich Finds in Old Districts.

Now again is coming the season when
the prospector takes his flight north
ward. A few months ago he was driven
out Of Alaska and from the mountains Of
British Columbia, Washington, Idaho
and northern Oregon, when the snow
fell, and made his way to the more
congenial winter climates from southern
Oregon to Mexico. AS much as all the
west, from the Black Hills to Vancouver
Island, Colorado and New Mexico to
California, and from Alaska to Mexico,
has been gone over by prospectors these
many years, there are being made more
discoveries than ever before of mines
that will be of lasting value and of new
districts that will attract the worlds at
tentior. The prospector today in spirit
and character is much unlike the pros
pector of years ago, but he knows more
and the results of his better work is
shown in the continuous reports Of
strikes being made all over the western
side Of the continent. What is more
significant is the fact that very large
proportion Of these are made in the dis
tricts that have been gone oyer by the
prospector time and again for the past
quarter of century. The Frazer river
excitement took thousands from Cali
fornia in the SOS only to be disappoint-
ed. Now with modern methods the
mines promise to yield large returns
and are attracting the attention Of capi-
tai. In the Black Hills rich mines are
being found in rock that was passed
over because 1t was not like that of the
first discoveries. In Wyoming thou
sands of acres of placer are being ex-
plotted. Yet Wyoming has never been
known as a gold mining state. In Ne
vada the same story is being told. In
New Mexico and Arizona the demand
for copper has been the cause of pros
pecting for ore bodies carrying that
metal, with the result that enough
promising discoveries have been made
to greatly add to the wealth of these
territories. So in Montana, Idaho, Colo
RADIO, Alaska and parts of British Colum-
bia, new districts, new mines and un-
expected formations carrying valuable
minerals are being constantly discovered
by the prospector. Yet, for all he is
doing, he receives little credit. Capital
tai comes in, helps him out with grub
stake" and enables him to go on again
like the Wandering Jew and the capital
ist goes to the Senate or Europe. Min

Comrade William Mckinley proposes
to trust the American people as they
should be trusted, says the National
Tribune. Twenty of the twenty-four
policemen who have been protecting
the sacred person of Grover /, at the
White House will be ordered back to
their beats. Only four will be retained
for duty, two by day and two by night,
rs during the Harrison administration.
Fort Thurber will also be evacuated and
abandoned. Fort Thurber is the sentry
box which the late private secretary to
the president erected outside the portico
Of the White House for the accommoda
tion of his police guard. All the other
unusual precautions which he made for
the protection cf President Cleyeland
against enemies from without will be
abandoned. President Mckinley has
no fear for his safety. Said Thurber
one day: Nobody will ever know the
extent of my efforts to protect President
Cleveland, unless he should be assassin
ated." Most of the precautions were
ridiculous, but President Cleveland al
ways seemed to have an apprehension
that he might die by violence.

Students Protest.

Twenty four students of the State
School of Mines have signed q remons-
trance against the contemplated change
in the administration ofthat institution,
in which they express the belief that "a
change in the faculty Of the school
would largely overthrow the results of
the progress which the school has lately
made, it would SO disarrange the work
of the students (many of whom have no
time to waste) as to render their return
to the school unadvisable, and that it
would render void all of the uncom-
pleted arrangements for the welfare OF
the students by necessitating the educa-
tion Of q new faculty to knowledge of
the functions of the school,"

DR.. McGillicudy Talks.

A Pioneer reporter gathers the follow
ing from an interview with DR.. McGilli-
cuddy of the State School of Mines,
located at Rapid City, regarding the
attempt being made to break up the
present management and faculty:
"It is the same old story, an attempt
to get control Of the institution by u
small faction of mining spectators and
schemers. to prostitute state institution
10 their own selfish ends.
1T was this same element that forced
the resignation of DR. Carpenter in old
days when he was dean, because he
would not lend the credit of the institu.
tion to the floating of mining schemes Of
doubtful merit.
ut was the persistent interference
and partial control Of this same element
that later on resulted in the temporary
closing Of the school and the dismissal
Of the faculty.
ITO the credit Of Rapid City in can be
stated the above referred to individuals
are vastly in the minority, but at the
same time they remain possessed of the
idea that the school is q local affair
established for their special benefit ana
use, and not an institution that, sup
ported by the state, should be a credit
to the whole state, and above suspicion
or honest criticism.
"As to DR.. Flick's candidacy, which
has been on from the time of the No.
vember election, il is an honest personal
effort on his part from the standpoint of
the political spokesman. while as physi-
clan and surgeon, in professional ability
he has not his superior in this region,
his peculiar fitness for the position Of
president of the school is a matter to
be passed upon by the appointive power.
The parties originating the present mess
do not expect, however, to have him
apppointed-he is not their man.
AS regards the present incumbent he
has not resigned, and does not propose
to. He is, however, thoroughly in
sympathy with the long suffering west.
ern miner who prayed that the Grim
Reaper would for the good of the coun-
try, transfer his attention for the 'shln-
ing mark to the mining shark
THE only fear is that the continued
interference of these parties will sooner
or later force the closing of the school,
or its removal to more healthy and
congenial atmosphere. Pioneer.

Bidding for the Senatorship.

The writer was personally informed
by three Of the five members of the
republican steering committee of the
late legislature while at Pierre Just
after the election of Senator Kyle, that
everyone of the pupuist candidates for
United States senator appeared before
the committee and promised to act with
the republican party in the organiza-
tion of the U. S. senate and to vote
for all administration measures, pro-
vided the republican members of the
legislature would throw them enough
votes to elect them to the coveted posi-
ton. Loucks went further than any
other candidate. He promised to not
only act with the republicans in the
United States senate, but also agreed to
fight Pettigrew at every turn, to convert
the Ruralist, his paper, into a republi-
can paper inside of year, and to stump
the state for the republican ticket in the
next two campaigns. Loucks promised
too much. The steering committee
were suspicious of him and declined his
offer with thanks.-Henry Independent.

AS the smoke Of tho great senatorial
battle clears away, the true situation
develops, and Senator Kyle shines
forth az an honest patriot. Republicans
saw that it was impossible for them to
elect republican and that a populist
was bound to win and they determined
the choice should be clean. able man.
They sounded the leading candidates
and found that all except Kyle were
willing to sacrifice every principle.
Kyle maintained his position on the
money question but was willing to give
the republicans an opportunity to prove
the correctness Of their theory and
would not be an obstructionist. Be.
lieving him to be an honest man they
decided to throw their votes to him
The populists have demonstrated them
selves to be incompetent and incapable
of meeting the emergency and have
only themselves to blame. The re-
ports that Kyle held out are untrue.
He can be depended on to represent
the best interests Of the state.-Milbank
