NO SOxIoUs DOSES. NO WEAKENING
OF THE NERVES. A PLEASANT
AND POSITIVE CURE FOR
TILE LIQUOR HABIT.

Il is now generally known and under
stood that Drunkenness is a disease and
not weakness. A BODY filed with poison,
and nerves completely shattered by
periodical or constant use of iutOxicat-
ing liquors, requires an antidote capable
of neutralizing and eradicating this
poison. aud destroying the craving for
intoxicants. Sufferers may now cure
themselves at home without publicity
or loss of time from business by this
wonderful "HOME GOLD CURE"
which has been perfected after many
years of close study and treatment of
inebriates. The faithful use according
to directions of this wonderful discovery
is positively guaranteed to cure the
most obstinate case, no matter how
hard a drinker. Our records show the
marvellous transformation of thousands
of Drunkards into sober, Industrious
and upright men.

Indians Score a "Coup."

Indians Score q "Coup."
The Indians arrested last week had
their trial on Saturday before Justice
Fisk and o jury Of six of our citizens.
Game Warden Fravert had LAWYER
Gentry assist in the prosecution, while
Judge Ryan defended the Utes. q
The case was called ct 8 O'Clock. aud
an after supper session was necessary
before it was given to the Jury. A large
crowd was in attendance. and from
some it was evident that the game war
den had proved a violation OF the law,
while others claimed that he had made
no case at all. Be this rs it may, the
jury brought in verdict Of not guilty,
and the redskins were accordingly
turned loose.
On Sunday Frayert. with two depu-
ties, gathered the Indians and their
ponies and effects, with the ostensible
intention OF escorting the outfit to the
Utah line. and then make them ''sit."

the "devil broke loose" Briefly, three

with most OF their ponies and blankets,
peremptorily refused to SO any further
and got away. Old EggeIston wanted
to leave too. but the three white men
were too much for him, and with the
packs containing the arms and ammr
nition, they succeeded in getting him to
Rifle. The deputies returned to Meeker,
while Game Warden Fravert took his
man to GieDwood where be will be tried
again for violating the game laws.

satisfactory to the blood-dyed warrior
Of the Bismarck Settler, although he's
been contending these many years for
just such state of affairs. Each week
the Settler has Il growing paragraph
or two regarding what has been, and
few references are given as to what
is. For years Br'er -Moffet has made
his living from the exploitation Of a
Theory; and, now that the venerable
Theory has developed into youthful
and vigorous Condition, the personal
outlook for the future is not so assur-
ing. To be sure, it is bad when daily
jumps over the fence into a reform
field that has long been monopolized
by a weekly; for the daily can roar
six times to the weekly's once. But
such untoward happenings, as they
can't be cured, must be endured with
all the philosophy that one is able to
summon; and we trust that the young
editor will bear with proper humility
and meekness the substitution in the
Slope metropolis of Condition for 4
Theory-a Reform for an Issue.

A >at..ractory Winter.

There Ia nothing new in the weather
report. The winter has now entered
the home-stretch, and still the mild
ness continues. Stockmen have been
agreeably surprised. Last November
all the ''signs" pointed to hard VIM
ter, and the weather sharps were al
most unanimous with their predic-
tions in that direction. Stock-owners
made lively rustic ior hay, believing
that they would have to feed their
stock for several months. Instead,
they have fed less hay than usual. In
the southern part Of the county there
has been nothing more than sprink-
ling Of snow, which soon disappeared,
and cattle and sheep have gotten the
major part of their living from the
uncut prairie grass. In the central
and northern portions of the county
more snow fell and more remains than
farther south; but on the hillsides,
where the best grass grows, the
ground is bare, and has been that way
for weeks. Horses not needed for
work have, as usual, been out in the
hills all winter, although the depth of
the snow makes little difference to
this class of stock in any winter. A
popularity of the present winter is
the good quality Of the uncut grass.
Last fall the heavy rains produced a
new crop of grass that was green when
| winter came on. 1t was the general
opinion that this grass would have
little value, and that horses on the
range, even if they should pull through
the winter, would be more valuab ble
as anatomical specimens than for 9th
er purposes. On the contrary, how
ever, the stalks Of much Of the grass,
for two inches or so above the surface
of the ground, are as green and succu-
lentas they were While growing, and
range horses are in fine condition.
Truly, the present winter has given
even. the old-timers many agreeable
surprises.

jerusalem! whizz! but it's a hard
propositon-this getting up country
newspaper in the winter time, when
everybody's blood is cool and nobody
makes any news. Why, there hasn't

One farmer kicked another farmers
dog in front ct Petrie's store, yester-

for trouble and an item. But the other
man said the pup ''jes follered" him,
and he didn't care a colonial dun
what happened to him. The man did
say that, il twas his own dog, no feller
ID kick him more'n once. But the
other let on he didn't hear the. re-
mark; and so, alas! there was no item.
Why, nowadays, even when any one
of our leading village-sports loses 3
cents delving into the mysteries of
penny-uncle, he doesn'twax exceeding
wroth, smite the furniture, and seek
desperate conflict, but just scowls a
bit, then digs up 2 pennies more, and
goes peacefully and harmlessly after
