Whooping Cough.

I had a little boy who was nearly
dead from an attack of whooping
cough, Ny neighbors recon-
mended Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. I did not think that any

giving him a few doses of that
remedy I noticed an improvement,
and one bottle cured him entirely.

W. 6. I. U.

It is with deep regret and no
little surprise that we note the
action of the city council in licens-
ing blind pigs. There are men,
beers of the council who are good,
law-abiding citizens few of
them pay out a goodly sum yearly
in taxes and by what system Of
casuistry or process of ratiocina-
ton they succeeded in convincing
themselves that they we're doing a
right or a business-lik thing
must remain an enigma.
The council, by this act has.
caused the city to enter into a
partnership with the blind pigs
not a profitable partnership for
the city, as it must bear not only
the burden of disgrace, but must
foot the bills, in return for which
it receives an infinitesimal fraction
of 1 per cent of the profits.
For the present we will waive
consideration Of the ignominy at
tached to the proceeding. We
will say nothing about the dis
honor of entering into a compact
with men who have no regard for
law. and no care for the good name
and prosperity of our town, SO long
as they can make money out Of
"trafic in the souls of men," We
will make no mention of our shame
and humiliation at beholding our
selves engaging in this unholy
traffic for the sole privilege Of
licking the crumbs that fall from
the blind pigger's table. We will
waive all this and consider only
the business side of the question.
Does it pay? The taxpayers of
this city and county know to their
cost that blind pigs are a most
costly institution. By their law
lessness they have not only sullied
the good name Of our town but
have piled. up costs for the county
in legal trials and prosecutions.
The blind pigger land his abettors)
are responsible for all the vicious
acts and crimes which have trailed
our reputation in the mire, and
"kited'' our taxesskyhigh, Through
the blind pigger land his abettors)
our town has acquired such an ILL
name that heads of families, who
would otherwise be attracted here,
fear the result of attempting to
rear their children in such an an
vironment. Men of means who
would like to locate here, scan our
tax rate and conclude to locate
elsewhere. These are facts as
every rejecting person knows. A
former Devils Lake editor, visiting
our town after several years alb
sence, notes that it has not kept
pace with the growth of the
country. He says. fractional
strifes have kept the town from
advancing with the country"
Yes, strife between the respectable,
law-abiding, tax-paying element
and the rum element in which the
latter are invariably victorious,
has kept the town from advancing,
has kept away desirable citizens,
has kept away capital! Does
fostering blind pigs pay? If your
business men and better class of
citizens, who are so ready not only
to 60 down deep in their pockets,
but to give time and study and
labor to the advancement Of our
town, would only take this matter
in hand they could speedily effect
a Transformation.
