AN SENATOR.


The correspondent Of the Washing

praise for North Dakota's junior SEN
ator:
There is one senator who has not
yet spoken a word, but whose PERSONAL
ity has become of much interest to fire.
quenters of the galleries. Porter James
McCumber sits in the rear row on the
republican side. He is the most reg
ular attendant upon sessions that his
side Of the chamber has. No speech
is so dreary that McCumber does not
sit it out. More than that, his face
assumes a most serious and attentive
aspect. From time to time the North
Dakota man bends over the writing
pad on his desk, and. makes a few
notes. Then he raises his face and
watches the speaker ~intently. The
first time Senator ,McCumber took
notes those who saw him were sure
he was going to make some reply. But
he didn't. He has taken notes every
day, and he has not yet spoken. When
the chamber is full and business is of
general interest Senator McCumber's
devotion to debate does not attract at
tention. But when some senator is
simply killing time, and fve-sixths OF
the seats are empty and nobody but
Senator McCumber, is listening, the
action Of the North Dakota statesman
lis impressive.

SOME PRAIRIE BREEzEs.
THE. A OF CHILD.

THE, HEART OF CHILD.
Give me thine spotless. heart, Oh little
child!
Where love springs like the sweetest
flower, wild,
From all its virgin soil, and radiantly
Reflects it fresh, unsullied purity.
Give me thine heart, that knows MOI
heat nor hate,
Nor passion thrills, nor grief makes
desolate,
When love, lone, reigned, and Life but
smiled and smiled,
Give me thine spotless heart, oh little
child!
Give me thine artless tongue that to
deceive
Knows not; but lisps to laugh and
wakes to cav
In whispered words diviner melody
Or love than speaks in grandest SYM
phony.
Give me thine eyes, that see but hap
piness
Nor aught of else in all the hours that
bless
Thy childhood time, nor any graver
ray
Than the glad sunshine of an endless
day.
Would we could cleanse our hearts and
make them young,
AS when were sweeter chimes of child
hood rung
From them, and when were flowers
s%pringing wild
From the untrampled soil, Oh little
child!

GOPHER SWINDLES.

A couple Of years ago the county
commissioners of Sargent county au-
thorized a bounty of . cents for the
tails of the ordinary gopher, which
were to be presented to the clerk in the
township in which the gophers were
killed, who was authorized to issue
certificates to the party presenting
them. This certificate was taken to
the county auditor and redeemed in
cash, , cents being allowed for each
tail. In a very short time the county
had paid out over $1,000. The mum
Der of gophers did not seem to be dim
inished and an investigation was
started. The Investigation disclosed
all kinds o. schemes to defraud the
county. In some cases the township
clerks conspired with ten OF twelve
fellows, one of whom would present a
number Of tails and get his certificate.
The clerks would then pass the tails
over to another, who would again pre-
sent them and get a certificate, and so
the Il lis would be passed along until
0 out.
Another plan was to procure a book
Of certificates and forge the clerks
name. AS the clerks made no ac-
>outcAnSo " LIZ SClL lllCdISS 1SSussu
there was not much danger of detec-
ton, and the forging of these certifi-
Gates became common. The certiti-
Gates were made payable to bearer,
and frequently passed through a num-
Der OF hands before being redeemed.
The matter was brought before a
grand jury last December and a large
number Of indictments We're returned.
A n1ln,1o1s nf, tho ofror3on~ Lea H..
state before they could be arrested.
Others forfeited their bonds and only
a few could be brought to trial.
When the cases were called for trial
a demurrer was entered on the
grounds tnat the action of the COM
missioners was illegal, hence there
could be no forgery. The demurrer
was not sustained by the court. An
drew Ryan was first tried on the
grounds OF uttering forged instrl-
ments, he having cashed some of the
forged certificates. He was con-
vlcted and sentenced to one year in
the penitentiary. Robert Stewart
was convicted of obtaining money un-
der false pretenses and given a like
sentence. He had a certificate made
out for his hired man for 2.4OO gopher
tails, n the man swore that he had
never presented any tails and had been
threatened with bodily harm if he ap-
peared at the trial.
Robert Morrow. a town clerk, Jack
and Fred Stewart and a fellow called
Timmons, pleaded guilty to conspiracy
to defraud the county and were fined
$500 each, with the exception of Fred
Stewart, who was a boy of Is, and who
was let off with a fine of $50.

IOWA IMMIGRANTS.
Special Train Arrives in the City with
Iowa Immigrants Saturday
Night.
Bring Stock and Farm Ap%purtenances
and. Will Locate on Land
North.

The advance guard of the Iowa i'm
migrants who are being located on the
Washburn lands north of the city ar
rived here Saturday evening. There
was a special train of twenty-seven
cars, with several coaches for the ac-
commodation of the persons with the
party. The train was loaded with
stock, farm belongings, poultry and
everything necessary to start anew in
farm life. The members of the party
are for n most part renters, who
have become tired of paying rents on
high priced lands in Iowa and will own
their w lands here.
All of the members of the party are
practical, hard working farmers who
will be valuable additions to the farm
ing population of the Missouri slope.
Many of them have already purchased
land in the Washburn belt and some
have filed on government land. In
leaving their old homes they brought
along everything that will be Of use
on the farm. Turkeys, chickens, poul-
try of all kinds, cattle, horses and the
various domestic animals to be found
On the farm. All was business with
them upon their arrival here in getting
their stock unloaded and cared for.
All were in good spirits and satisfied
that they had made a wise move. Their
stock was in good condition. The
horses are American bred, and valu-
abe farm animals. Agent Macomber
of the Washburn company had made
arrangements for the housing of their
stock and they were busy yesterday
getting their horses into shelter and
their cattle out to feed.
The members of the party who have
already bought land will go north at
once n erect shelters and
for the opening of the farming season.
There will be altogether with the
present party. Of which this is. the adj
vance. about $50 people, quite an ad-
dition to the population of the slope.

RESERVOIR FILINGS
Special Agent Lounsberry Ordered t,
Investigate and Report on Reservoir
Filings.
Ovea Nine Hundred of Them in the
Bismarck District to be Re-
ported Upon.

Col. c. A. Lounsberry, special agent
of the land department. has been or
dered to investigate and report upon
the filings that have been made in the
Bismarck land district under the res
ervoir law.
The provisions of the law are fam
iliar to all residents of the western part
of the state where the law has been
literally taken advantage of. 1t
gives settlers the right to file a de-
claratory statement and file upon
land, with the intention of building
reservoirs for the storage of water;
Up to the present time there have
been over 900 filings made in the Bis
marck land district. The govern
ment is led to believe that the inten-
ton of many Of the persons who have
filed on land is not bona fide in the
matter of building a reservoir. ; It
will be the duty of the inspector to
examine the filings and report upon
those of them not believed under all
the conditions to be bona flde. Such
of them will be cancelled.
In the Devils Lake land office and
district all filings have been rejected.

When hand clasped hand in fullness of
content,
Those other, days, when hearts songs,
tho unsung,
Yet in a sweet and glad attune were
blent.
Those other days, when out among the
flowers
Like little children, innocent, at play
Plucking from Time the petals of the
hours
And then, like children, tossing them
away.

And gather to our hearts those scat
tered flowers,
Restore the petals to the rose today
All, me! How jealousy we'd guard

Wo,,,an,s
Mistake

It is a well-known, fact that Lydia
e. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
has cured more women than any other
remedy. 1t therefore must be the
best possible medicine for female ills.
But some women make the. mistake
of thinking that they will try some
thing else, simply because it is new.
That mistake is often a fatal one
fatal to the health and happiness of
the experimenter.
Is it not foolish to risk the possible
results Of such experiments? is it not
better to depend upon a medicine
which has been tried successfully for
thirty years, and which has never
been found wanting? Do not therefore
let any one persuade you to try some-
thing which they say is just as good.
It cannot be just as good. Mrs. Pink
hams Compound is the best, and there
can I've only one best. This is not a
mere assertion, but is a positive fact,
admitted by hundreds of regular
physicians.
Rely on your own common sense,
and Mrs. Pinkham's lifelong expert
ence, and you will make no mistake.
Don't experiment with your health,
but take a medicine that YOU kuow is
good, and is backed by such letters as
these to Mrs. Pinkham:

That every day

Bring me content.
That naught of anger, pride,

Tho bread or stone
Thou givest me, tits good
