thereof, Or having the same stamped
%thereupon, and in default thereof shall
incur a penalty of SO.
The commissioner holds, therefore,
that the sender of the message should
stamp it.
In the case of the stamp required to
be affixed to an express receipt or bill of
lading given by an express or railroad
company or other common carrier, the
law specifically states that "it shall be
the duty of every railroad or steamboat
company, express company or corpora
ton, or person whose occupation it is to
act as such, to issue to the ship
per or consignor, or his agent, or pelson
from whom any goods are accepted for
transportation, a bill of lading, manifest
or other evidence of receipt and for
warding for each shipment received for
carriage and transportation, whether in
bulk, OF in boxes, bales, packages, bund-
les or not so inclosed or included; and
there shall be duly attached and can
celled as in this act provided, to each of
said bills of lading, m%anifests, or other
memorandum and to each duplicate
thereof, a stamp of the value of / cent?
1t is held. therefore, to be clearly evil
dent that if an express company or
other carrier accepts goods for trans.
%portation it must issue the consignor
a bill of lading or receipt duly stamped
and cancelled.
If such company or carrier refuses to
accept goods offered for transportation
except consignor shall pay the cost of
the stamp in addition to the regular
charge for the service performed or pro-
posed to be performed, the internal
revenue laws afford no remedy. AS to
whether the laws imposing obligations
upon common carriers if appealed to,
would supply a remedy, the commits
sioner holds that the courts must de.
eide.
Oswald g. Co. of Minneapolis, are
suing a jamestown man on a chatteI
mortgage for $1,000 for liquors sold and
the defense puts up as a counterclaim the
money paid out by them to the firm for
liquors since the prohibition law went
into effect, holding that they can re.
cover this amount in an action. The
decision in the case has not been filed

Little Breezes.
A travelling representative of the
Fargo Forum was in the city the other
day aud passes out these little notes:
The Grand Pacific hotel, Henry Tat.
ley, proprietor, is gaining trade. There
are forty-tive rooms in the house neatly
furnished.
The Sheridan House, under the pro.
prietorship of E. G. Patterson, the
mayor of the city Of Bismarck, is being
repaired, renovated and refurnished
The dining room has been newly papered
and painted, enameled and brass mould.
ed bedsteads are being put in the bed
rooms, also hair mattresses and feather
pillows. The culinary department has
had added to it a $500 cooking refriger.
ator for the preservation of meats, etc.
MI. j. w. Mansfield, late of the Mime.
apolis Club House, is the manager of
the Sheridan.
A prominent travelling carpet sales
man was here day before yesterday and
he was SO favorablyiimpressed with the
location and natural advantages of Bis
marck, that he intends to interest his
firm in purchasing lots there.
Some hoboes effected an entrance into
the store of Thos. O'Shaughnessy, from
the rear, yesterday evening at 5 O'Clock
and stole some shirts, knives, epectacles,
; cheap jewelry, etc. Some little girls,

McCue, the chief Of police, soon had
fourteen hoboes rounded up and he
claims the principals are among the
number arrested. The fact that the
stolen booty was found near the railroad
tracks and eleven arrests made in less
than al hour, after the robbery, proves
that the police of Bismarck are not
| slow.

How to Send Mail,

Friends and relatives of the North Da-
kota volunteers who have gone to Manila
are having some trouble in finding out
from the %postoffice officials just what
facilities there are for sending mail to
Manila. AS rule the mail has been
sent on the Oriental line steamers to
Hong Kong, after which it would be
forwarded in dispatch boats to the
American feet.
Now that the government is sending
expeditions to the Philippine islands
every three or four weeks the facilities
are a little better, though somewhat
uncertain as to time. Mail for men who
have sailed on previous expeditions is
forwarded on the boats of the other ex-
petitions as soon as they sail. For in
stance mail that reached San Francisco
the Tuesday after the North Dakota
regiment was put on board the Valencia
and the men will get it at Hawaii.
Another expedition will leave in a few
days, and letters mailed TO San Fran
cisco right away will probably reach
there in time to be sent on with this ex-
petition. If not they will go with the
next fleet, about July 25th.
Letters for soldiers at the front should
be plainly marked. The name, rank,
company and regiment should be
stated. The name of the state from
which the regiment starts should always
be given. Letters for soldiers at Manila
should be addressed as follows:
JOHN DOE,
Compay A,

With Gen. Merritt's Army at Manila.

company has recently ordered 1000 new
freight cars and a few engines. The
Great Northern this spring ordered
1000 new freight cars and last fall or
dered about as many more. The reasons
why these companies are ordering so
much lev equipment are these, as
stated by al operating official: "Big
business is anticipated, old equipment
is naturally wearing out and the latest

Anxious to Get Away.

The North Dakota troops who are
with Grigsby at Chickamauga are
anxious to get away and take part in
the struggle in progress in Cuba and it
seems now their anxiety will soon be
gratified. A letter from one of the boys
says: All of the North Dakota boys
are standing the heat we'll and are COM
ing to the front in efficiency in drill.
One brigade. composed of the LIST Ohio,
the LIST Illinois and the Sd U. S. Vol.
cavalry will be the first to leave Chick
amagua, and we are expecting to move
most any time. Our equipments are
being issued to us now, we have received
three uniforms, "Dress," of the grass
colored Korkoie cloth, "a swell affairO
'Undress," of blue, and a fatigue suit
of brown ducking, a very cool uniform
to drill and work in. Our arms consist
of the new army rifle, (Krag. J%orgenson)
two forty-ive Colt revolvers, and a sabre.
We are armed to the teeth, and most the
men in our regiment know how to use
them. do not like to comment on the
rations furnished forthe first two weeks,
really there was hardly enough to fur
nish food for "thought" but there is
a vast improvement now. We have
potatoes and fresh beef once a day now
and all the bread we can eat. There is
very little kicking done, for we did not
come here to kick, but let anyone who
thinks army life a lot of fun, just stay
at home and continue those thoughts,
for if they ever enlist, they will be very
much disappointed. Snakes and tarant-
ulas flourish here, the other morning
a rattler was found under my pillow,
a very nice bed fellow,-I don't think.

Settled the Taxes,

Emmons county has made a settle.
ment of its delinquent taxes with the
Northern Pacific, and under all the cir
cumstances, Editor Streeter, although
bitterly opposed to railroads in general
and the Northern Pacific in particular,
appears to realize the cogency of the
arguments which have appeared to the
other counties that have settled. The
Record says: The basis of the settle
ment was so per cent for the years 1889,
1884, 1885 and 1896, and 80 per cent for
1897. AS the taxes for 1889 were of an
extremely "shaky" character, and the
legal fight was to be made entirely on
the other years, the actual cash to be
received is about 80 per cent of what it
was believed could be obtained through
the suit. The total payment, we under
stand, will be about $4,000, which is as
much, or more, than would have been
obtained through the suit, after paying
% per cent to the attorney. Since last
December the county commissioners
have been a%nXiously awaiting the ar
rival of Attorney Baker at Williamsport,
but he has not arrived. His last letter
stated that he would be here in June,
but he did not come. After waiting
about ten months for the case to be
commenced, the commissioners decided
to accept the offer of the railroad, which,
as will be seen, is nearly three times as
much as Emmons county was listed for
before the state tax commission.

Cast His Bread On the Waters.

When the North Dakota regiment ar
rived at the ferry Tuesday they were,
like the soldiers who preceded them,
shown into the spacious dining-room
presided over by the ladies of the Red
Cross, says the San Francisco Examiner.
The bill of fare was ample.

come by the long trip, but the majority
of them were blessed with a good appe-
tite-the soldiers best friend.
One of the privates in particular en-
joyed the repast immensely, and when
he finished he sat back in his chair and
said:
'.Gee!"
"Did you get enough to eat?" asked a
beautiful society girl at his side, her
face beaming with kindness.
II should say So" said the soldier
rising. "That's the finest meal I've had
since we started"

fumbled in his pocket. Finally he found
what he was looking for and extended
his hand with 10 cents in it.
"What is that?" asked the society
bud, a smile dimpling her pretty face
''That's for the meal" said the private
somewhat embarrassed at her manner
"Oh, we don't charge for this" she
said. This lunch is given by the Red
Cross"
"Oh," he stammered, and his embar-
rassment deepened. "We.ell, you take
this anyhow, and buy SOM gum, or
something for yourself"
Ten cents!
Her father is worth a millionl
And the soldiers income is only about
SIS per month!
The pretty bud thought for awhile.
She knew it would do the young fellows
heart good if she took the money. She
would take it.
"But you must let me give you some
flowers. she said. And as she pinned a
b%outonniere in his lapel she dropped a
SIS gold piece in his pocket.

but let us say to Spain that we will

ment to our dead of the Maine. If Spain
will not accede to this, let us make good

Mr.. Butler regretted that the President
did not tell Congress what he meant or

the President concerning the recognition
of the Cuban republic, maintaining that
to stop the war on the island without
granting independence of the Cuban re-
public simply meant the crushing of the

NAVAL MILITIA COMING.
tiles Are Now Interesting Themselves
in the Matter.

Messrs, Clifford and Camp of this city
who have been instrumental in interest
ing the navy department. and the state
authorities in the organization of naval
militia in Portland went to Augusta
yesterday morning at the request of Ad-
jutant General Richards to confer with
him in regard to the matter If war is
declared Gov. Powers will undoubtedly
call a special session of the legislature and
at this session it is not improbable that a
bill will be presented authorizing the
formation of naval militia here in
Portland and also in Bath, Rockland and
Eastport. Messrs. Clifford and Camp of
Portland, Gen. Hyde and others OF Bath
and Adjutant General Richards are all
working together now to make q naval
militia here and IN other places in the
state possibility. General Richards and
Gov. Powers are said to favor the i'd ca
and are prepared to recommend such an
organization TO the legislature either at
it's special session or the regular session
the coming winter. There has been a
great deal of misunderstanding in regard
to this matter and for a time the organi-
cation of a naval militia here seemed far
away indeed, but all parties are now
working together and following the ad
vice of the navy department in the matter
and Portland will undoubtedly soon be
represented in the naval militia brigade
which will be authorized by law when
the proper times arrives.

NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY.
A Positive Cure for Dyspepsia.

This may read as though we were put
ting it little strong because it is gener-
ally thought by the majority of people
that Dyspepsia in its chronic form is in
durable, or practically SO. But we have
long since shown that Dyspepsia is cura-
BILE, nor is it such difficult matter as it
first appears
The trouble with Dyspeptics is that
they are continually dieting, starving
themselves OR going to opposite extremes,
or else deluging the already over bur-
dened stomach with "bitters, after
dinner pills, etc., which invariably in
crease the difficulty even it in some cases
Such treatment of the stomach simply
make matters worse. What the stomach
wants is a rest. Now how can the stom-
ach become rested, recuperated and at
the same time the body nourished and
sustained.
This is the great secret, and this is also
the secret Of the uniform success of Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets. This is a COM
paratively new remedy, but It's success and
popularity leave no doubt as to its mer-
Its.
The tablets will digest the food anyway,
regardless of condition of stomach
The sufferer from dyspepsia according
10 directions is to eat an abundance OF
good, wholesome food and use the tablets
before and after each meal. and the result
will be that the food will be digeSted, no
matter how bad your dyspepsia may be,
because as before stated, the tablets will
digest the food even if the stomach is
wholly inactive. To illustrate our mean
ing plainly, if you take 800 grains of
meat eggs or ordinary food and place it
In temperature of 96 degrees, and put
with it one of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
it will digest the meat or eggs almost as
perfectly as if the meat was enclosed
within the stomach.
The stomach may be ever SO weak yet
these tablets will perform the work of di-
eestion and the Loiy and brain will be
properly nourished and at the same time
. radical, lasting cure OF dyspepsia will
be made because tie much abused ston-
ach will be given, to some extent, a
much needed rest. Your druggist will
tell you that of the many remedies adyer-
tised to cure dyspepsia none OF them mas
given 50 complete and general sstisfac,,
ton as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and
not least in Importance in these nara
times is the fact that they are also the
cheapest and give tho most good for the
least money. A little book on cause ana
