GREAT GoBs OF PROSPERITY.

can press telling Of the wonderful era
OF prosperity that has fallen upon the
country since McKinley's admins ra-
ton began. Some Of these kilograms
found their way to the Omaha World
Herald and were published in a re-
cent issue Of that paper. In order
that our readers may have some idea
Of the tremendous wave OF prosperity
now sweeping over the country as
seen through Mark Hanna's literary
bureau we reproduce some Of these
: special kilograms with the comments
Of the WOrid-Herald thereon.
The special kilograms sent out un-
der direction of the bureau are pnnt-
ed ON little slips of paper and are in
serted in an envelope that also CON-
tains little note marked @private, to
the editor" The little note informs
Us that
This (meaning the kilograms sent
by maiD should appear as your own
matter with the date blanks filled in
according to time Of publication. 1t
should not be used as coming from
this committee, though it's accuracy
is vouched for"
especial kilograms" from rumber
Of towns are offered by the committee.
Without filling in the date blank, and
without using it as "our own matter"
we give place to the following special:
Dunseith, n. D.. July, 1897
There are no man ufacturers in this
town or vicinity, but the evidences of
improved conditions are nnmistaken.
Considerable building is in progress
among the farmers, and they are re-
ceiving good prices for
their crops. There is no lack
Of employment for men, al
though there we're many unemployed
year ago. In this vicinity there is
a marked activity in the erection of
business and residence structures.
BY reference to the American news
paper directory for 1897 we learn that
Dunseith is a thriving city of 162 pop
ulation. and we are happy to be able to
chronicle it's wave of prosperity.
The Dunseith Herald is doubtless fill
ed with scare heads and double head
ed references to the great wave.
Another of these special tele-
grams" the accuracy of which is
vouched for by parties unknown, reads
as follows:
"South Bend, Wash, July 1897
The evidences of increased activity
are clearly apparent, both III manu-
featuring and in the oyster industry,
which brings large sums OF money to
this vicinity. The prices of oysters
have advanced SO per cent. reaching
the highest figure paid in years. A
new single mill to man ufacture &C.
dar shingles ia to be established
shortly, and the Harris Goeppert box
factory has resumed running on full
time. The Pacific Lumber company,
which had been closed down for near
ly two years, has begun operations
with the full number Of hands and
the Northwestern Lumber company
which had been running on half time,
has now all the orders which it can
fill. and is employing as many hands
as can be utilized"
South Bend. Wash, is thriving
metropolis Of 69 inhabitants. and we
are glad that the whole SO are enjoy
ing season Of great prosperity and
oysters. If there is any one industry
that needs boom it is the
July oyster industry. We would be
glad to receive a copy OF the South
Bend Journal, for it doubtless will
give full particulars of the un prece.
