FREE SILVER S
North Dakota Boy Writes that Philip
pines Furnish Free Silver OBJ
ject Lesson.

Private John r. Stem of Company
Il, 18th U. S. infantry, wrote January
1 to his parents in Trail county from
Gambling, LuZon: 81 am awful glad
that the elections went as they did.
1t shows that the majority of the peo-
pie is ON the right side yet. Nothing
would have pleased these niggers bet
ter than to see the U. S. go democratic.
That is their last and only hope. l
think if the free silver people of the
United States could only be here for
one month and see what free silver is.
they would always stay by the sound
money issue. The Mexican, Spanish
or Filipino dollar is just the size of the
u. S. dollar, but has more pure silver
in it thar ours, and yet it is only worth
so cents of Il money. Their money
is in dimes. twenty cents, half and one
half dollar pieces In changing for
U. S. coin we get two for one. You
ought to see them go for our gold.
We get all our pay in gold, as paper
money will not keep here-the ants eat
it. The natives come around and beg
us to give them gold for their silver.
l don't believe there is a man in the
@'oASH 'iA WV 20 SAhhS WYNN SSSA
vote for free silver.
Before we left Angeles a letter-car-
rier of %Aguinaldo's was caught with
letters on his person from insurgelit
officers in Manila sending clippings of
w. j. Bryan's latest speeches to the
rebel officers at Tarlac. Now if that
isn't enough to turn any true American
against the democratic party, l don't
know what is. They encourage the
insurgents in every a possible. l
wish they would have to face a shower
of bullets for about three hours once
and then, maybe, they would want the
war to close. ] believe, too, that Il
good dose of the chills and fever would
do them some good. A fellow cannot
escape from or get out of the malaria
here, if he stays for fifty years. 1t
got me when l first got to Angeles and
shows up about twice a month. 1t
never kills anyone, but it is awful UNI
pleasant to have"

GOES INTO CATTLE BUSINESS,

Fargo Forum: Chairman Brown
of the board of county commissioners
has sold his big farm in Gill township
to August Ditmer. The purchase
price is said to be $3G per acre. Mr..
Brown will continue to live on the
farm this year, and will devote consid-
cradle time to his mining interests,
which are proving very profitable.
He intends to secure a stock ranch
on either the Missouri or the Mouse
rivers, and put a bunch of cattle on
1.-The range under some competent man.
While he may leave Cass county after
a year or so, he does not intend to get

sale of its remaining land grant lands
in Minnesota and that a Minneapolis
syndicate is very likely to be the pur-
chaser. The lands comprise about
10000 acres scattered through the
northern part of that state. This pro-
posea deal, taken with the recent sale
of large areas of timber lands in Wash
ington would seem to indicate a policy
upon the part of the Northern Pacific
of closing out its holdings as rapidly
as it can make favorable terms. The
present deal is said to be about at the
point of contamination.
