Olaf O. Searle, the manager of the

Land renters from Iowa, grown-up
sons of farmers in Southern Mime
sofa and other states, and workingmen
from the cities, mines and factories
are going out to Central Minnesota to
found new homes and secure lands
while they can be found near stations
and at low prices. Now is probably
the last chance to get a home at hard
time prices, and next spring will prob
ably bring a material increase in land
prices all over the Northwest, and be-
sides this, the best and most conVen-
iently located tracts will be disposed

find land now will in a very few years
have an independent home, free from
debt, and enough money to join the

excursion to the old world.

NEW SEBASTIAN MILEAGE
Will Re Given n Trial Here This
Month.

Western roads will have the hearty
cooperation of travelling men when the
Sebastian form of interchangea BILE
mileage ticket is placed on the market,
about the middle of the coming month.
In this respect it will be in much
better shape than the Central Passen-
ger association. judging from the views
held by several Chicago general pas
senger agents, who have been in st.
Paul the past week. The travelling
men in the territory of the Central as
sociation have been 'roundly criticsing
their form of interchangeable ticket
ever since it has been in operation.
On the other hand the Western Pas
senger association will be obliged to
meet with the antagonism of the men
who are the principal purchasers of
the new ticket. The Sebastian ticket
is to be put in as an experiment. The
individual mileage books now in use on
Western roads will not be Withdrawn,
and for a time both forms will be sold
and used side by side. The mileage
books now in vogue are issued by the
various roads, and while not generally
interchangeable are good upon certain
roads marked on the cover.
Considerable doubt is expressed as
to whether the Sebastian form will be
found satisfactory substitute for the
present arrangement.

practical points in the details OF
chronic catarrh, very instructive and

Catarrh, including catarrh OF the nose

These lectures are calculated to bring
before the reading public the latest and
most helpful things known to medical
science concerning chronic catarrh. DR..
Hartman's great remedy, Pe-ru-na, has
probably cured more cases of chronic
catarrh than all other remedies put to-

of this disease and has cured many
thousands of cases. Most people buy
the remedy at the drugstore, taking
it according to directions on the bottle

prefer, however, to correspond with the
doctor during treatment. Letters are
held strictly confidential and are

Judge Sanborn, in the United States
circuit court for the district of Kan
sas, listened yesterday to arguments
of counsel on three motions for fore
closure DEGREES in the suits to fore
close the mortgages on the Central
Branch, Union Pacific; the Atchison,
Colorado & Pacific, and the Atchison
Jewell County & Western railway.
J. H. Benton Jr., of Boston, appeared
for the plaintiffs, who are the trustees
under the mortgages. Col A. G. Coch-
ran, of ST. LOuts, represented the Mis-
souri, Pacific; w. R. Kelly, of Omaha,
looked after the interests of the other
defendants, and Hoffman Miller, of
New York, appeared in behalf of the
bondholders of the Central Branch.
At the close of the argument Judge
D. Cornish, master, to report the facts
and the form of the decree on or be
fore Dec. 6.
When a reporter for the G o b e
called the attention of Judge Kelly, of
Omaha, to the Associated Press dis
patch announcing that Judge Sanborn
would probably grant an order re-
straining the sale of the Union Pacific
railway, and that Judge Kelly, in con-
sequence, had hurriedly left Omaha
for st. Paul, Judge Kelly said:
There is absolutely no foundation
for the statements contained in that
dispatch This matter has nothing
whatever to do with the sale of the
Union Pacific main line
AT st. Louis it was rumored that
an order restraining the sale of the
Union Pacific railway would probably
be granted. 1t was said there that the
interference came from the Sage syn
dicate, and the petition would be based
on the declaration that if the sale was
postponed the government could re-
cover a premium on it's claim.
AT New York there was af1oat a
story that the application for an in
junction would be made at Omaha.
But so far as is known no such in
junction has yet been granted. 1t
would be necessary to serve such an
injunction in the United States court,
as the state courts would have no jur-
isdiction over the case. Judge Munger,
of the federal court, will spend today
at his home in Fremont. The court
might, however, grant an injunction
at Lincoln, Fremont, or any other place
upon application being made to him, if
he saw fit. Whether he will grant

CUT THROAT TACTICS.
Western Roads Will Try to Bring
Them TO an End.


CHICAGO, Oct. 30-Freight rates
into and out of Chicago in all directions
are in a condition of the utmost de-
moralization. At no time in the last
five years have things been so badly
mixed up as they are today. Eastern
and Western roads appear to be vieinG
with each other in their efforts to see
which can cut things deepest and cause
the most widespread disturbance. EX-
listing conditions are all the more mex
plicable when it is remembered that
there is more traffic moving and in
sight to move than the roads know how
they are going to handle. They are
pushed to find rolling stock and to pre-
vent freight blockades along their lines,
and yet they keep on slashing rates
with the utmost abandon
Executive officers of the Western
reads have arranged to hold meeting
here next Tuesday to see if they can
not find a way of bringing order out of
the existing chaos. Their meeting will
be followed by one of the traffic officials
Wednesday. Between them it is hoped
some way will be found of putting an
end to cut throat tactics and of having
tariff rates reasonably maintained. AS
for the east-bound roads they have
abandoned themselves to diSpalr until
the close of navigation.
Tourists at Colorado points have
found themselves in a fix. The return
limits of their tickets practically ex-
pired yesterday but they found it i'm
possible to leave for their homes on
account of the snow blockade. Arrange
ments have been made today by all
roads to extend the limits of the tickets
to Oct 81.
An agreement has been reached by
the Western roads to make a reduced
rate of a fare and third from Colora-
do common points, and all points east
thereof to Chicago and return, for a

Travellers association, to be held here

FARGO, n. D, Oct. 9O.-At meet

kota, recently held in Fargo for the
purpose of examining candidates for
admission to the bar, there were many
applicants present, eight of whom were
successful. One of the latter was Mrs.
Ida NJ. Crum. wife of Attorney Crum
of Fargo. She was the first lady who
ever applied for admission to the bar
in this state, and stood her examina-
ton on the same plane as the other
candidates. That she was entitled to
admission is demonstrated by the ex-
cellent percentage she secured, and
the compliments paid her by the mem
bers of the supreme bench on the thor
ough knowledge of the law she dis
played.
Since her admission to the bar she
has been granted permission to prac-
