We must either believe that a
large percentage af the population
lie deliberately, and premeditatedly
and without any motive other than
q love of mendacity, or else we
must believe in the many and re-
markable cures effected by the
use of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medi-
cal Discovery and "Favorite Pres
cription."
For these cures are testified to
by hundreds Of thousands of men
and women, scattered over every
state in the union. These are the
men and women who are the back
bone of the country Their word

whom they trade, with the neigh-
bors and friends who are Of the

Think of the matter in thi light.
Here are hundreds of thousands
of credible witnesses who without
conference or collusion testify in
dependently to common series of
facts. Such testi mony as this
from only two or three persons
would be adequate to determine a
matter of life or death in any court
of law in the land. What can be
said when instead of two or three
witnesses, hundreds of thousands
testify that Dr. Pierce's medicines
do cure, the disc eases for which
they are prescribed and recon-
mended? We come back to our
starting point. We must either

believe this multitude of witnesses
or we must believe that men and
women who are as we are morally
and socially, will go out of their
way to write monstrous false
hood, damaging to themselves and
perilous to the public which it is
designed to deceive and delude.
Such an opinion would be q dis
grace to the lowest class of human
intelligence.

Chautauqua.

The board of directors of the
Chautauqua association held a
meeting Friday evening to discuss
plans and prospects and for the
election of officers of the board for
the ensuing year. The busy times
prevented some of the directors
from attending and President N.
G.. Larimore wrote that on account
of his wife's recent injury, he
would not be able to attend. The
directors present were: Ole Ser
umgard, Edgar A. LaRue, John
w. Maher, Judge Cowan, James
E, Watt, of this city and E. H.
Kent, of Grand Forks. It was de-
cided to engage the services of the
secretary hereafter for the entire
year SO that no small feature of
the annual meeting might be over
looked. Already the association
is in communication with persons
to take part in the program next
year, believing that it is none too
soon to secure the best the country
affords. A number of improve
ments will be made. The hotel
is the first thing that needs i'm
provement and while no definite
action was taken by the board, in
all probability the hotel will either
4t@be-greatly enlarged next year, or a
new one built. It was decided to
compel all the stores and stands of
every nature and kind, to remove
their buildings into one block.
| This is very good move and will
add much to the appearance, fo1
the better, in the grounds. Sail
boats will be purchased next year
and more attention than usual
paid to outside amusements. Mr.
Kent was more than enthusiastic
and his good work last year ably
assisted in making the Chautauqua
the greatest success ever. Friday
evening the treasurer submitted
his report which was turned over
to the auditing committee. The
years business proved highly
satisfactoryin every way. Another
improvement that will meet with
general approval is the resurvey-
ing Of the grounds. This will be
done early and the streets will be
properly laid out and defined.
The old officers were reelected
which speaks approval of the eff
cient work done by them in the
past. They are: President, N.
G.. Larimore: vice president, Ole
Serumgard; secretary, E. A. La
Rue; treasurer, John W. Maher.
| The prospects are that next year
will be better one than ever for
Chautauqua and the good crops
this year will be boon to the in
| stitution.

| j. T. Smith,. of Heron, Lake,
Minnesota, was in the city Mon
day in the interest of Minnesota
people with whom he is associated
for the purpose of ascertaining
the prospects of locating fax
fibre mill in Devils Lake. Mr..
Smith was more than pleased with
the outlook and prospects. He
stated that the artesian we'll would
be a great benefit to the mill in
furnishing the desired water; that
There was fax straw enough with
in a radius of five miles Of the
city to supply the mill for several
months. Monday evening a meet
ing of the business men who be-
long to the navils Lake club was
held at the club rooms for the pur-
pose of meeting Mr.. Smith and
learning what he expected from
Devils Lake people as an induce
ment for his people to construct
the mill at once. Mr.. Smith
stated that if the people here
would purchase $4,000 worth of
stock, which might be paid by
flax to the amount of the shares or
stock purchased, he would, when a
proper site was furnished him,
commence the construction of the
plant. He stated this manufactur-
ing establishment would cost at
least $4,000 of which $50, 900
would be furnished by his party; /;
that the mill would employ 20
men and would have a capacity of
60 tons of flax day. He also
told that the fax would command
a price of from $1.5O to $2.25 pei
acre according to the quality Of the
same. He had samples of the
manufactured fibre, which is used
to make certain kinds of twine
also to make cushions and uphols.
