RAISING SUGAR BETS IN
MONTANA.

The Salt Lake Tribune has the follow
ing in its Ogden correspondence:
About IS. 600 tons of beets We're sliced
al the Ogden sugar factory during the
season of 1SS9-1900. More than 1.30o tons
of these came from Box Elder and cache
counties the balance being raised IN
Weber county. With the exception of a
few from Davis. The price PAID was
$4.25 per ton. or a total of about Si2e,ooo.
A total of SIS. 900 was paid for labor dur
ing the three months. The slielng of
beets closed Saturday night. and by
Wednesday the factory will close. BY
that time it will have produced about
5S coo sacks of sugar. AS the output is
the same as last year, with 1000 tons less
in beet reeespts. the run is considered a
remarkably good one. the beets averag-
ing higher percentage of saccharine
matter than last year.
Those figures should open the eyes of
the men who own land in the Gala tin
Yellowstone. Deer Lodge, PiiclAy Pear
and Bitter Root valleys of Montana.
They should lead TO experiments for
demonstrating the value of Montana
land for beet culture Within five years
we believe the Montana demand for
sugar could b. supplied without sending
a dollar out Of the state. That would
save to the people more than million
dollars per annum. give increased value
to many thousands of acres of agrlcul-
tural land. and furnish employment to
several hundred men winter and sum-
mer The agricultural station at Roze-
man has already taken some interest IN
the matter. but what is needed besides
proof that good sugar beets can be
raised in Montana is an assurance that
| we have the men possessing the capital
| and the state pride to start the bushes:
! going The man who shall produce the
first pound of sugar in Montana will live
in the states history as one of its great
est benefactors Besides, he will di;

to his heirs even if it does not completed,

srarEpREss COMMENT

Billings Gazette: The announcement
that for the first time since its admission
the state of Montana is out of debt ana
on a cash basis prompts the Omaha Bee
to remark that that should persuade 1t
to finish the job of discarding democracy
and embracing republican prosperity.
The Bee is requested to contain itself in
patience and keep its eye in this direc-
ton from now on. 1t is hard to overcome
old and fixed habits but the advance
made in the direction of reclaiming tthe
state last month is such as to give
abundant cause of hope for the future.
BoZeman Chronicle: The time seems to
be ripe for the realization of the time of
those public spirited. far sighted and
progressive men, who year after year
have met in national convention and
sought by all manner of means to
arouse public sentiment to the utility

that she was with the lth cavalry that

Great Falls Leader: There can be no
question i'm the world that the road law
Of Montana needs fixing and needs 1t
badly. 1t is in such a chaotic shape to-
day that the services of a lawyer have to
be called in every time road is laid out
and then the trained minds agree that
there are very few legal roads. 1t is very
lucky, indeed, that in nine cases out OF
ten the people interested are so glad to
get any roads at all that they do not
look to see if they are properly laid out,
but this should not be used as an excuse
for neglecting to pass plain road law,
easy to understand and easy to carry
out
The whole trouble seems to be that the
system of working the road is not such
as to get the best possible results out Of
the money expended The same old ruts
are filed up year after year and each
spring the rains come and wash the dirt
out of these ruts, while reasonable
amount expended in a proper manner
would have fixed that Old rut in the hrst
place so that it would stay fixed for
years. y

RADWAY'S PILLS IN AG0NIZING
 STOMACH TROUBLES.

Messrs Radway & Co.
 Dear Sirs-I know a business man on the east side of town who has for years been ailing and suffering agonizng pains in the stomach. The doctors, from Prof. Jacoby down to others by the dozens could neither effect cure nor could they even tell what the malady was. He, few years ago, crossed the Atlantic to consult German doctors, without result. l used to cal lat his store every few nonths and heard his tale of woe. He said while i'll he was never hble to retain his food and at certain times of day he was attacked with an agonzins pain which lasted an hour or so, when he acted as a madman, breaking chairs, etc., and having to give up business for the time being. Food never staid in his stomach longer than half an hour. Yesterday, after . lapse of eighteen months, called again, and to my surprise he was still alive and looking well. asked after bis health He said he has been wS1l for over e year and has gained 70 pounds in weight. wanted ko know what doctor had cured him. This Is what he told me: About "a year ago or Uver man came to his store telling him he had been sick very much the same as he was for some time, and tried Railways Pills, which quickly cured him. He at once decided to use the pills. The druggist did not have any and tried to give him another kind, but as he insisted on Railways, they were procured for him the next day. He only took one at night and he immedaat tely felt better He kept up for time to take the pills, and from the first day to this day t,ds malady never returned.
 s. H. G. ULRICH, 326 E. 61st St., New York City, October T, 1898.

was draped over a handsome hat in such a way that it hung in graceful folds not too over the face, and upon this netting Madame was fashioning the veil.
 Upon the little marble slab in front of tho mirror lay a tray filled with small black velvet moons; upon the other corner were tiny velvet dots. And from these the veil was being dotted
 Taking large moon, Madame applied 1t to the veil, holding it on with one finger, while the fair customer noted it's effect. The moon was too high. "A little lower," commanded she; 'and nearer the corner of my mouth"
 The spot being finally adjusted in its proper place, Madame secured it with a tiny black thread and proceeded to place another. When the veil had been mooned and speckled in such a way as to best dis play the beauties of the fair dames face, it was removed and given over to finishing touches to Felicitie, who had emerged from the curtain.
 That" said Madame, lis the way all the veils are made this season"
 Some of the newest veils exhibit wild vagaries in design, yet vagaries that are pretty withal. The smallest, flattest velvet pansies are appliqued upon the netting, be- ing set underneath, and not on top of the mesh. Then there are other veils that show a border of forget-me-nots, appliqued and

A POPULAR MISTAKE
Regarding Remedies for Dy yspepsia and In-
 digestion

digestion
 phe national disease of Americans Is in- digestion or in it's chronic form, dyspepsia, and for the very reason that it is so com mon many people neglect taking proper treatment for what they consider trining stomach trouble, when as a matter of fact, indigestion. lays the foundation for many incurable diseases. No person with a vigorous, healthy stomach will fall vic tim to consumption. Many kidney diseases and heart troubles date their beginning from poor digestion; thin nervous people are really so because their stomachs are out of gear; weary, languid, faded out women owe their condition to imperfect digestion.
 When nearly every person you meet is afflicted with weak digestion it is not sur prising that nearly every secret patent medicine on the market claims to be a cure for dyspepsia, as well as a score of other troubles, when in fact, as Dr. Wer- thier says, there is but one genuine dys- pepsia cure which is perfectly safe and re- liable and moreover, this remedy is not a patent medicine, but it is scientific com bination of pure pepsin (frec from animal matter), vegetable essences, fruit salts and bismuth. It is sold by druggists under name of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets No extravagant claims are made for them, but for indigestion or any stomach trouble, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are far ahead of any remedy yet discovered. They act on the food eaten, no dieting is necessary, simply eat all the wholesome food you want and these tablets will digest it. A cure results, because all the stomach needs is rest which Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets give by doing the work of diges- tion.

rorakerand Antl-saloonists
Washington Post.

From the Washington Post.
 Senator Foraker has replied to letter recently received from Rev. F A Baker, of Columbus, Ohio, state superintendent or the Ohio Anti-Saloon league, in which the writer inclosed a circular which, he said, that in the spirit of fairness, he submit ted for the reply of Senator Foraker before distributing it throughout the state or Ohio.
 The circular is the same as was sent to Senator Hanna, and charges Senator For aker with having used his influence to defeat the Harris local option bill, and to interfere with the Clarke local option Dill, before the Ohio legislature It says that, before his election to the United States senate Senator Foraker was professional lobbyist and that he had slapped the Christian and temperance people of the state in the face.
 In his reply, Senator Foraker handles MT. Baker without gloves and takes occasion to say that he did state that he was op- posed to local option by wards in the large cities as being a menace to the republican party, and that he retains the right to be still of that opinion in regard to the Clark bill. The Harris bill. Senator Foraker says, he never heard of. The rest of the letter Is devoted to an arraignment of MT. Baker personally, and the methods he employs. He accuses the anti-saloon leader in very plain language of making statements not consistent with the facts. Among other things, Senator Foraker says:
 "Is it not possible that you are one of the men of whom Bishop Fowler spoke whel he told of what he called the private wire class and defined what he meant by saying they are class who get inspiration for their mouths by private wire reaching down from the summit of their egotism, which extends so far into the clouds that they imagine they are in communication with the Almighty, instead of their own ab-
