OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE COUNTY AN
THE CITY OF DEVILS LAKE.
FRIDAY, IL, 1859.
COMING OUR WAY.

Within the last four years this
country has been transferred from
the debtor to the creditor side in
the worlds great ledger. Trea-
sury returns, bringing the figures
down to the last of September,
show that the tide of trade in our
favor is sweeping on in undim-
inished volume. During the month
Of September Jul exports exceeded
our imports by about $40, 900.
For the year ending that month
the excess was $543, 975,O31. It is
true that the prevailing prosperity
Of the country has led to a great
increase of imports during the
year, and last month we bought
from foreigners goods to the
amount Of $70,461, 1886, yet we sold
abroad $ll0, ,685 worth, which
was more than we ever exported
before in any September in our
history. In that single month we
exported more than we did in a
whole year as late as 1916.
In the four years ending Sep
TENDER 30, 1899, our exports OF
merchandise exceeded our imports
by no less than 81, 1856, 1921 As
part payment for our goods we
have had net imports of about
500, 100000 in coin and bullion,
our tourists abroad have probably
spent $500, 600, 900. and we have
paid a good deal to foreigners fol
freight charges on u products
But after making all deductions
we must have at least 100000,
600 more to our credit in the
worlds ledger now than we hac
tour years ago.
The only two ways in which this
balance could be liquidated was by
the return of American securities
from abroad and by the creation o.
new obligations from foreigners tt
us. Both have been adopted. w
have been gettiug out of debt our
selves and lending money to Eu
rope.
The New York journal in a lat,
article on this subject says:
at is said that owing to the troubles in Sout
Africa there may be gold shipments from Ne,
York to England. If so, the money will be len
not drawn from us against our will, as in tn
dark days of 1898 and the succeeding years. ]
will help still further to strengthen our positio
as a creditor nation.
"The return of our securities within the pas
four years has been doubly beneficial. 1t ha
helped to make us the proprietors of our ow
resources, and it has checked to some extent tn
extravaganza speculation that has been DANCE
GUS enough at the best. But if the currents {
trade continue to run in the present direction
Europe will soon have no more American secul
ties to send, and then we shall have to hun
like the British capitalist: for safe investment
for our superluous wealth."

What Physicians Have to Say
Regarding the Merits of
RUSAD0

After a Careful Investigation,
Close examination into the
practical results which have
been had from the use of this
has caused us to en-
dorse it as being an undoubted
cure. Effectual in removing
the exciting cause in a number
of attacks which had been of
! the severest and most tedious
character, Crusade Internal Pile
cure permanently restored to
health; and in cases which were
of a milder description, its use
Immediately afforded relief and
cure.
Submitting the whole ques-
ton of the intrinsic value of
this remedy to medical men of
acknowledged competence, we
obtained from them further
pro + of its merit. While UNI
willing to give their approval
to proprietary remedies as a
whole, they admitted that facts
were at hand in regard to Cru
sado which left no question in
their minds of its right to a
place among those proprietary
medicines which, cOmparatively
small in number==really receive
the endorsement of the profess
sion. Read the following testi-
m0nial from a Peoria citizen:
DR.. Donald Wallace Co.

Dear Sirs:-Crusado will do all you
claim for it as I car testify: I have
been a sufferer for more than 20 years
with bleeding and protruding. 1 have
had operations both by ligature and
the knife, but with no permanent re-
suit. Have also used every known
remedy in the shape of ointments and
suppositories, and secured only tenn
porary relief. July 10, 1899, I began
using your Crusade Internal Pile Cure
with little faith, but today, August %,
1899, I am rejoicing in the fact that 1
am absolutely cured, and I can not too
highly recommend it to all sufferers.
Wishing Crusade the success it de-
serves, l am, Yours truly,

years of Cleveland's administra-
ton. Can the American people be
buncoed again?

Mr.. Gompers is a leader of Or
ganized labor. He has shown con-
siderable ability in leadership, and
is no doubt an intelligent man.
He is in the forefront of the fight
against trusts. He is among those
who demand drastic legislation
against them. Now it would be
we'll for MI. Gompers and laboring
men generally to stop and do a
little thinking before they push
things too far. A law against
trusts must be made general in it's
operations. It must strike at all
trusts great and small. The object
Of legitimate business trusts is to
lessen the cost Of production and
cheaper the product to the con-
sumner. But there is a trust, and a
perfectly legitimate one, as mat
tiers stand at present, the object Of
which is to maintain a high wage
rate for the worker. This certain
ly must enhance the price Of the
product to the consumer. A re-
lentless warfare on all trusts, car
ried to a successful issue, must
initiate against organized labor,
for a trade union however lofty
and praiseworthy its purpose, is
neither more nor less than a labor
trust. A general law against trusts
would certainly cover labor com.
binations as we'll as business COM
binations. All classes must be
treated alike by the law. The
toilers of the land have the right
to bombine for the control of the
labor market, just the same as
capitalists have a right to poo.
their issues. The law cannot
make fish of one and fowl of the
other. It is we'll to think ovel
these things carefully and not ac'
rashly. The effect Of our protec.
tive tariff system has been to give
the American workers the highes'
wage rate in the world. This has
enabled labor unions here to be
come strong enough to maintain
the rights of labor. In no othe:
land on earth is labor so constant
ly employed at good pay as in thi
country. Nowhere else on earth i

SO we'll fed, clothed and housed a

ditions have not been brough
about by Democratic or Populis
tic legislation. If there is any

to 'view with alarm" it is tn

listic kicker.

when all other cotton was of a low
grade, that picked by the monkeys OF
my plantation was all middling. And
that cotton sold for more than one
half a cent more than that which was
picked by the negroes. In fact, l be-
lieve that the discovery that monkeys
can be taught to pick cotton is the
greatest that has been made for the
cotton planter since Whitney discov-
cred the cotton gin.
People around here laughed at me
when l first tried to teach monkeys
to pick cotton, as they always do when
man tries anything new. But now
that my experiment has proved to be
success, my neighbors are wild
about 1t. The negroes around the
plantation have sworn that they
would kill the monkeys. They haven't
done so yet, however, and I appre-
bend no great danger in that direc-
ton"

would not have picked, and always a
cleaner grade of cotton. The cost of
picking was, of course, infinitely less.
This first experiment proved to Mr..
Mangum that monkeys could be used
with great success as cotton pickers.
So, in June, 1898, he gave an order for
500 monkeys of the same breed to an
exporter Of monkeys from Africa, with
the understanding that the greater
part OF them were to be females.
About the first Of September OF this
| year the new batch of monkeys ar
rived, and the services of the old train
er were again engaged to train the
new lot. But this was not such an
easy task as was at first imagined, for
many of the monkeys were wild and
untamable at first. Finally, with the
aid of the twenty old monkeys, who
were Of great assistance, and a great
deal Of harsh punishment and of re-
ward, the new gang of monkeys was
trained by the middle of last October.
Cotton planters throughout the
South have watched the experiment
have visited the plantation near
Smedes, to see the monkeys at their
work. On the big plantation the rows
were filled with monkeys, each with
her little cotton sack about her neck,
picking away quietly and orderly and
without any rush or confusion.
AS fast as the monkeys got their
sacks full they would run to the end
of the row, where a man was stationed
to empty the contents of the sacks
into baskets. Then the monkeys would
scamper back along the row and would
Immediately resume their work. The
monkeys seemed actually to enjoy
picking. Each monkey was protected
from the rays of the sun while picking
by a cotton cap, which was tied under
it's chin with a piece of string.
Mr.. Magnum is enthusiastic over
the success of his experiment. "The
introduction of monkeys as cotton
pickers means more to the South"
said he, not long ago, than a cotton
picking machine; for the monkeys are
a success as pickers. while the ma
chimes, so far, have been failures. The
monkeys are in every way superior
to negroes as pickers. In the first
place, the cost of picking is about one
third. Then they are far more care
full than negroes and pick finer grade

EVOLUTION OF CAvENDISH.
His DIatribes at the People Who Mis-

Henry Jones, one of the old authori-
ties in the world of card-playing, died
recently, says the Washington Post.
Cavendish, his pen name, will go down
in history, because he wrote that IA
nous book on whist. Jones received
a medical education in his youth, and
was at one time a dresser or assistant
to the celebrated surgeon, Lawrence.
But he early made a scientific study
of cards. Jones took the name Of Cav
endish from the club of which he was
a member His book had an immedi-
ate success. There have been no few
err than twenty-three editions of it,
and over $4,000 copies have been is
sued of it since its publication. Jones
was exceedingly severe on bad and
careless players. He had no patience
with those who could not count their
trumps, and on one occasion he eX
pressed himself thus: travellers tell
us that saVages cannot count beyond
ten. Long experience at whist has
convinced me that it is far more diff
cult than is commonly supposed for
civilized people to count thirteen, for
how often it happens that even good
players excuse a mistake by saying
they thought there was another trump
in or they had misCOunted spades"
