feeling, and did not care for anything.
I have taken three bottles of Lydia E.

Pills, and to-day I am a well person. 1
would like to have those who suffer
know that I am one of the many who
have been cured of female complaints
byyour wonderful medicine and advice.

ACCORDING to a recently published re-
port giving the criminal record of each
state in the union, the fact develops
that Arizona is the wickedest state in
the union, from a criminal standpoint.
Nevada comes next and Massachusetts
follows. The report credits North Da-
kota with being the banner state for
goodness. In the summary North Da
kota is referred to in this way: Way
out in North Dakota, where the wheat
and the corr climb skyward and the
SNOWFALL sits up nights flirting with the
diffidcnt iciclc, man is not so vile as he
is elsewhere. Here is the state with the
smallest percentage of criminals claiming
it as a residence. If it had a million OF
inhabitants, which it hasn't, the ratio
would be only 531. Happy North Da.

The house wisely concluded to pass
the fidelity bond bill-after amending it
so that county treasurers receiving $500
a year or over will be compelled to pay
the cost of the bond-instead of the
county. This satisfies those counties
where the sentiment favors low salaries
to county officers. The poorest economy
a community a adopt, however. is low
salaries. 1t invariably leads to lower
order of talent in official position and
less regard for the community's welfare

The sentiment expressed in the Creel

American vessels engaged in trade with
the Orient-is a good one-tho' to in

nent of property shall be at its true

ment of property shall be at its true
value, and the bill of the Cass county
senator is aimed to provide the machiu.
cry for carrying that provision into
effect. The present assessment of per.
sonal property through the state is ex.
tremely low-in many cases assessments
are made at ridiculously low percentages
of the true value of property, aud under
the proposed law the assessments will be
increased. In this same connection, if
property through the state both real and
personal were equalized at it's true value,
the total of assessed valuation of prop
erty in the state would be largely in
creased and the tax rate lowered-the
reputation of the state in a financial way
would be benefited, and the condition
of values all around would be juster and
have better effect.
