"A Liberal Offer.
Bismarck, N. D.

. =a.E EaaE.e
The Northwestern newspaper which is
conceded the largest circulation is the
Minneapolis Tribune. As an all round
purveyor of information and entertaining
reading its popularity is the best proof of
its ascendency.
What the Daily Tribune is to the city
people the Twice-a-Week edition of the
same publication, the Farmers Tribune,
is to that great majority of the people of
the state who are too busy to read a
daily paper.
The Twice-a-Week Farmers Tribune,
is, to all intents and purposes. the farm
er's daily. It is a condensation of the
news for the three days preceding the
date of publication and it contains the
very latest news up to the hour of going
to press.
The Farmers Tribune does not pre-
sumo to take the place of the home
weekly, but it supplies the place Just
outside of the sphere of the home paper,
and in this capacity it is OF the highest
value to a large majority of the people Of
the northwest.
The Bismarck Tribune has made ar
rangements with the publishers of The
Farmers Weekly whereby it is enabled
to make the most liberal and astonishing
offer we ever made.
If you are now a subscriber for the
Tribune we will send you The Farmers
Tribune (twice-a-week) with your paid,
in-advance renewal of subscription to
the paper. You thus get the two papers
for S1.25. No stronger inducement
could be offered.
The same offer is also extended to new
subscribers.
Do not delay taking advantage of thi.
offer. Tt will not be continued long
You cannot afford to let this splendit
opportunity slip by. Send in your sub
: scription to the Bismarck Tribune ans
get with it The Farmers Twice-a-Weel
Tribune free.

SOME PRAIRIE
THE VILLAGE CHURCH.

off for the village church today
Mother an Moll an me,
Come firm tn city, a hundred miles to
go, especially.
Been goin' to brownstone gospel shops,
imposin' an grand an swell,
But I don't feel that hankerin' there for
Heaven or that proper fear O Hell,
That I allus did in tn little church in
tn village we used to tend,
Where the green woodbine an tn ivy
Irvine, an the song birds voices blend
With the village choir an the gospel
hymns rang out on tn summer air,
An tn Lord sort O. seemed to come right
down an sit among US there.
..Of for tn village church today-there's
a tear in Mothers eye,
An another one in my own, 1 guess, but
I couldn't tell ye why;
Mebbe it's cause we was married there,
SO many years ago.
An our boy lies there in his grave,
asleep, an tn music seems to flow
Out through the vine-clad window in a
sort O lullaby
AS tn breath o. God might kiss the sod
where the souls all sleeping lie.
TIL airs SO still an the sweet hymns fill
our hearts with peace today,
An tn Lord sort o. seems to come right
down an kiss our tears away.
There's a somethin' grand bout tn
village church, can't jes' tell We why
But ye seem to get right close to God
an we stand there silently,
Breathin' a prayer 80 earnest like, ye'1
eyes all blurred an dim,
AS though He was standin' there an "
was whisperin' to Him.
An tn little organs mellow tones, an
tn music seems SO grand,
Because it tells a tale of love that ye'
heart can understand,
An yer heart feels warm with love tina
We want the world to know an share
An tn Lord sort O. seems to come rlgh
down and sit among US there.
ST got to live in tn city, cause I got m
int'rests there,
But Mother an me-, when we come t
die, are both a goin' to share
a lot in tn village churchyard, whel
cur lost boy lies asleep,
An though our lives is happy, sometime
, we, sit an weep,
, An sort O yearn for tn time to con
), when tn Lords own lullaby
, Floats through tn vine-clad windo
above us as we lie,
. When our boy shall wake and we shs
' take his hand at tn Judgment da
!. Rise from tn sod in tn steps o. God
we three, an go away

The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1900-03-28

The Senate has a bill before 1t which
Bppropriates three million dollars for a
cable to Honolulu and which also fore
shadows a cable across the Pacific at
some future time. This cable is to be
under Government control. The oppo-
sitiOn to a cable to Honolulu is not so
strong in the East as the opposition to
the through cable. Indeed the cable
direct to Honolulu would never have
met with the same opposition that it
has. if there had not been the fear of
that future cable from Hawaii to the
coast Of Asia. However, as things
stand now there seems to be no reason
why our cable should not be common
ced in 1901. There have been many
slips over this cable and it does not do
to feel too sure, but things look hope
full.

THE WAR.

The condition of affairs in the Free
State is very peaceful. The burghers
are focking in and giving up their
arms, and are only too content to get
back to their farms. President Steyn
on the other hand is threatening with
death anybody who surrenders to the
British, which makes it apparent that
the President is in a considerable
minority.
The peaceful condition of affairs in
the Free State will have its influence
upon considerable section of the
Transvaal population. 1t is the oligar
chy that has desired the war, and deny
1t as much as they please now, that
oligarchy meant to break British power
in South Africa and establish a united
Dutch Oligarchical Republic, a very
different thing from a Republic of the
American type.
In spite of President Steyn's threats
and President Krugers defiant speech
es, 1t begins to look as if the war would
come to a speedy conclusion. OF course
events may alter. 1t is never wise to be
too sure of the success of military oper-
atoms, but Lord Roberts is working q
statesman as well as a general. and
there seems every chance for his states
manship to have as great an influence
IN bringing about peace as his general
ship.

PLAGUE,

The medical officers of the Board OF
Health in San Francisco have some
difficulty in deciding whether three
deaths that have occurred in that city
are caused ythe plague or not. The San
Franciscans are not disposed to believe
in their Board of Health and say that
it is purely raid upon the city treas
ury which is at the bottom of the
plague scare. The result is some very
sharp criticism of the authorities,
nevertheless evidence seems to point to
the cases as being plague. San Fran
cisco will have a job on her hands e
plague has taken hold in its Chinatown.
In other parts of the world the plague
is spreading. Sydney continues to re-
port deaths from plague and it has ap-
peared at Adelaide, South Australia.
In Calcutta the disease has made great
Roadway, the number of deaths reach
ing into the hundreds a day. The au-
thorities there can make no such hero
&c fight as we have done here. Prob
ably no community upon the face of
the earth has fought plague so persist
emily and with such success as we have.

RIGHT AND WRONG.

The rights and the wrongs of such a
question as has brought on the situation
and war in South Africa, are almost
hopeless to unravel. There have been
writings on both sides, as 1t is certain
that there are arguments on both sides.
Many Of these are of long standing. a
legacy handed down from a forgotten
past. The Dutch Of Cape Colony have
a grudge against the English on ac-
count of the wars and Napoleon's ambi-
ton. That is the root of some Of it.
Then there have very naturally been
local causes Of disagreement. In the
past the sovereign power has been
harsh, but the Dutch themselves, have
been harsh to those they had in their
control. However, times have changed
and the harshness of half a century
ago is no reason for retaliation at the
present day; that is the brooding mind
of the savage.
An article written by Canon Wrigman
of Grahamstown, gives very fair re-
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1900-03-28

view Of the condition in South Africa,
and is the more valuable because the
Dutch papers of the Colony, and even
those of the Free State and the Trans
vaal speak of him, or rather, spoke OF
him in exceptionally good terms.
Now the Archdeacon asserts that the
Beers, when they invaded Natal treated
the inhabitants very badly. The Brit
ish had to fly. If they stayed on their
farms they were compelled (comman-
deered is the world to join the Boer
forces. There was no other thing to do
except to go to prison, and according
to their views, they took the alterna-
tive.
Another statement that Canon
Wrigman makes is that the farms Of
northern Natal, where the Beers got
possession, were actually parcelled out
among the conquerors. A modern, CIV
ilized army hestitates to pick a rose Off
bush, though it does that and more at
times, but certainly before people pass
any opinion on the present Boer war
they should familiarize themselves on
what the Beers have done in Nothern
Natal.

There is an important phase OF the
war loan of $4,000, 900 which is being
issued by the British Government It
is the first time on record Of the pres
entation of a European Government
loan for subscription in New York.
The Bank of England. which acts as
agent for the British Government, has
authorized the house of j. P. Morgan
& Co, of New York, to receive sub
scriptions to the new consols. The gem
eral feeling in great financial circles is
that the action taken is to be regarded
as a recognition of the Importance of
American markets, and the command
ing position they now hold in the finan-
cial world.

The reply Of President Steyn to Lord
Roberts protest about the misuse of
the white flag is fiippant in tone, and
bears the impress of a narrow rather
than a broad mind. The President
wants to "get back" at the General
who is occupying his official residence.
