Still More C0unterfeiting.

The secret service has unearthed
another band Of counterfeiters and
secured a large quantity of bogus
bills, which are so cleverly exc
cuted that the average persoe
would never suspect them of benin
spurious. Things of great valug
are always selected by counter
feiters for imitation, notably the
celebrated Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, which has many imitators
but no equals for indigestion,
dyspepsia, constipation, nervous
ness and general debility. The
Bitters sets things right in the
stomach, and when the stomach is
in good order it makes good blood
and plenty of it. In this manner
the Bitters get at the seat of
strength and vitality, and restore
vigor to the weak and debilitated.

A
WoMAN'S
MISTAKE

It is a well-known fact that Lydia
e. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
has cured more women than any other
remedy. It therefore must be tho
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 n persuade you to try some
thing which they say is just as good.
1t cannot be just as good. Mrs. Pink
hams Compound is the best. and there
can be 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 know is
good, and is backed by such letters a.
these to Mrs. Pinkham:

Keep the flag flying.

The Republicans of the state
are willing to admit that Wiper
man is a good'fellow in the sense
in which that term is generally
employed. No one denies it.
But then good fellows are very
common in North Dakota. Every
neighborhood has several such,
but no one thinks Of making gov
errors of them because of their
personally attractive qualities. If
every good fellow was to be elected
to Office there wouldn't be Offices
enough to go around, and the
people know it. They also know
that as a rule the good fellow is
not the best man in whom to con-
fde a great public trust.

Backache and Womb
Troubles SucCumb to
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege.
table Compound.

II have been for ten years an in.
valid with female weakness, and the
torture and pain I suffered no tongue
can tell. l never spent one week in
the ten years that I was free from
pain. My trouble was Inflammation
and congestion of womb. When I
commenced to take your remedy 1 had
been belfast for some time under the
treatment of two of the best physi.
clans in Illinois without receiving anv
benefit. You can imagine the benefit
derived from Lydia E. Pinkham's Vepe-
table Compound when I tell you thatI
have gained forty pounds and am well
"a thing l never dared to expect,"-
MRS. c. E. POLAND, Monet, Mo.
"For a number of years I was
troubled with backache and leucor-
rhea. I became so weak and miser-
able that 1 could not attend to nv
work or studies. The least effort
would completely exhaust me. Phvsi-
clans failed to help me. Ifelt that nv
youth was blighted, and the life before
me would be one of suffering and
misery. Then a friend insisted on me
taking your medicine. Before I had
used one bottle I was greatly relieved.
l had not known a well day for four
years, butnow I feel better than Ihave
since a child, and it is all due to Lydia
y. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound."-

about so serious a complication as
that involved in this great labor
uprising? It is a menace to law

such things is not to be trusted

treated by physicians, 1 could not gain
strength nor do my work, and was so
low-spirited and tired of life. A friend

would have to have an operation and
have the ovary removed. 1 became
discouraged and gave up all hopes Of

for their assistance already aggre-
gate a large sum. The need, how
ever, is great and urgent and too
much cannot be raised for the
purpose. Every dollar helps and
every person who can ought to
contribute something. As some
one has said, the silver lining to
every cloud of disaster that hovers
over any part of the land, is the
generosity with which the Ameri-
can people respond to the cry of
distress.

THE STRIKE.

There is more than a just sus-
picion that the great strike Of
anthracite coal miners in Pennsyl-
vania was secretly encouraged by
the Democratic leaders for politi-
cal purposes. They undoubtedly
conspired to bring it about in the
hope that the consequences would
prove disastrous to the Republican
party. It may not turn out that
way, but that the strike will i'm
prove Bryan's prospects is unques-
tionably the anticipation of his
campaign managers.
Al a rule a strike is detrimental
to the party in power, although in
this instance there is no reason
why it should be, since the Re-
publicans are in no wise respon-
sible for it's precipitation, nor for
the grievances Of the miners. The
stigma for bringing this disaster
upon the country appears to rest
largely with the Democratic party
while the wrongs of the men are
solely due to the Indifference and
greed Of the coal barons. The
Republican party is not to blame
in the least and should not suffer
for the sins of others.
1t has long been evident that
the Democratic politicians would
regard some great public misfor-
tune as a godsend because it would
furnish them an opportunity to
raise the calamity howl which has
always proved more serviceable
than argument for Democratic
campaign purposes. They parti-
cularly felt the need of a calamity
this year out of which to make
political capital, since they could
devise no issue that would promise
them hope of success. This is
one reason why suspicion is SO
strong that they did all in their
power to encourage the Pennsyl-
vania strike.
But what must be thought of a
party whose leaders with a view
to securing a political advantage
will deliberately plan to bring

GOVERNOR R"OOSEVELT,s
VISIT.

The reception accorded to Gov.
ernor Roosevelt at Fargo must
have been most gratifying to him
It was royalty enthusiastic and
demonstrated that the people Of
this state not only have great res.
pect for the coming vice president
but that they are still loyal to the
Republican party.
The elements were most unfav.
orable to a political rally on the
day of the Fargo demonstration.
the rain coming down in torrents
a part Of the time, but the bad
weather did not deter the people
from turning out. While the
crowd was not as large as it would
have been under more favorable
conditions, still the assemblage
was a vast one and the enthusiasm
that prevailed could not have been
surpassed.
A significant feature of the oc-
casion was the address Of Cover
nor Roosevelt. It was a strong,
logical and convincing political
Grafton, and those who heard it
felt that they were listening to the
plea Of q thoughtful statesman and
not to the plea of a self-seeking
political demagogue.
Governor Roosevelt's visit to
the state will do the Republican
party good. It was not necessary
that he should come to North Da-
kota to secure it's electoral vote for
Mckinley and himself, for that was
already assured, but the effect of
his visit will be to increase the
Republican majority, a result in
itself desirable because the greater
the majority the greater the moral
effect.
A staff correspondent of the
Minneapolis Times has been writ
ing up the campaign methods of
the two parties. With this end
in view he visited the headquarters
of both in Chicago. AT the Re-
publican headquarters he says he

They knew what they were doing
and had an accurate knowledge
of the existing political conditions
everywhere. They made no false
claims and did not seek to conceal
anything, but appeared perfectly
willing that the worst as we'll as
the best should be known. Al
Democratic headquarters it was
different. Those in charge there,

Prof. L.. B. Fancher's announce
ment Of his candidacy for superin-
tendent of schools can be found
in this issue. Mr.. Fancher is one
of the leading educators of North
Dakota. He has held his present
position since 1894 and has per-
formed the duties of the Office in
an enimently satisfactory manner.
Ramsey county is indeed fortunate
in having so able a man at the
head Of the schools and he should
by all means be kept there.
Capt. Thomas Lonnevik comes
out this week for the Republican
nomination for county treasurer.
Mr.. Lonnevik has resided in
Devils Lake since '92, coming to
accept a position as teacher in
Aaberg college. After a four
years term there he taught a term
each in Minnewaukan and Norway
townships and two terms in the
city schools of Devils Lake. He
was holding the latter position
when the war with Spain called
the militia into service, and he re-
signed to 60 to the front. He
entered the service as second lieu
tenant of Go. D., and was with the
company during all of it's hard
fighting in the Philippine cam
paign, returning with the boys as
their first lieutenant. Upon the
reorganization Of the company MI.
Lonnevik was unanimously elected
captain, an evidence of the high
esteem in which he is held by the
members of fighting Go. D. Mr..
Lonnevik is fully competent to fill
the office of county treasurer and
will have a strong following in the
convention.

prer, subject to the decision of the
Republican county convention.
Mr.. Lee has been a resident of
Devils Lake for seventeen years
and is we'll known to most of the
voters of the county. He held the
Office of treasurer from 81 to '94
and is therefore familiar with the
duties of the Office.

Bryan is coming into the state.
He will be at Grand Forks on the
29th, just long enough to make
one of his characteristic speeches.
He will proceed as far northwest
as Grafton, but it is to be a flying
trip. He has no time to waste in
a state that is certain to throw it's
electoral vote to his opponent.
The wonder is that he should come
at all.
The wall paper trust, which has
controlled over Is per cent of the
wall paper output in this country
for several years, has gone the way
that all gigantic trusts will go in
time. The individual concerns
are again in the open market COM
peting for business, but the Bryan
ties are keeping very still about
it.
It has already become evident
that the opposition to Thomas F.
Marshall is weakening. The
candidacy Of Hildreth is creating
enthusiasm nowhere, a fact that is
discouraging to the fusion cam
paign leaders who now realize that
the election of Marshall by a large
majority is a foregone conclusion.
