must be the chief attribute of the divine
ruler of the universe. Viewing the sub.
ject in this light, Tom Callan has earned
for himself home in the highest sphere
that he is capable of enjoying.
We would say to those who loved him.
and who are left behind to mourn over
their bereavement, in the loss of an af-
fectionate and faithful husband, father
and friend, be We comforted. The grave
holds nothing that ia Of the least value
or concern to him and should not be to
you. Rather should we cultivate feel
ing Of congratulation for him who has
risen. that he has come into his inheri-
tance. and is enjoying the reward earned
by good and honorable life. Our days
on earth are short at best, it's but little
while and we who mourn him now will
be privileged to grasp his hand again,
and experience the JOYS OF a higher and
better existence, and enjoy with him all
the blessings that eternity holds in store
for the worthy and the good.

Mother Always Keeps it Handy.

"My mother suffered a long time from
distressing pains and general ill health
due primarily to indigestion" says L. w.
Spalding, Verona, Mo. 1.-TWO years ago
l got her to try Kodol. She grew better
at once and now at the age of seventy
six, eats anything she wants, remarking
that she fears no bad effects as she has
her bottle of Kodol handy" Don't
waste time doctoring symptoms. Go
after the cause. Ifyour stomach is sound
your health will be good. Kodol rests
the stomach and strengthens the body
by digesting your food. 1t is natures
own tonic. Alb. J. Jones.

Cream vermifuge, and it brought up 1l9
worms from the child. It's the boss
worm medicine in the world" Whites
Cream Vermifuge Is also the childrens'

Poisoning the System.

1t is through the bowels that the body
is cleansed of impurities. Constipation
keeps these poisons in the system, caus-
ing headache, dullness and melancholia
at first, then unsightly eruptions and
finally serious illness unless a remedy is
applied. DeWitt's Little Early Risers
prevent this trouble by stimulating the
liver and promote easy, healthy action
of the bowels. These little pills do not
act violently but by strengthening the
bowels enable them to perform their
own work. Never gripe or distress.

Senator Klttredge.

That South Dakota has no reason to be
ashamed of her junior senator is shown
by the following from Walter Wellman,
Washington correspondent Of the Chic
ago Record Herald:
A new man has come out Of the west,
Mr.. Kittredge of South Dakota. This
new senator made his maiden speech,
and it was a success. He spoke on the
canal question, and had an audience Of
fellow senators which was a great COM
pliment to him. He was closely follow
ed by thirty or forty senators, and they
followed him closely because he had
something to say. AS a member OF the
interoceanic committee Mr.. Kittredge
investigated the whole subject. Like
the good lawyer be is, he went deep in
to the question of title, and wrote for the
minority OF the committee that remark
able report which completely upset the
absurd claims Mr.. Morgan and his
friends had been making. Yesterday
Mr.. Kittredge not ouly convinced his
iCdiCio tudb thO titiO W thO 4
route is perfect, but called attention to
another important matter already re
ferred to by Senator Collum to wit, that
Costa Rica has not offered any terms
whatever to the United States, and until
it does so there is no concession and no
agreement for concession covering the
Nicaragua route.
The Costa Ricans are playing shrewd
game. They want the United States to
commit itself to that route and then they
are ready to come forward and make an
agreement. They don't want to do busi-
ness till they get the whip hand. Sena-
tor Kittredge warned the senate against
this blunder, and his warning attracted
much attention.
At the close of his speech the modest,
studious and thorough senator from
South Dakota was warmly congratulated
by score of his colleagues.

Mining Items.

Harry Francis is taking out some good
copper ore from the Dick Palmer prop
erty on Spring Greek, IL miles northwest
from Custer. The ledge is eight feet
wide.
The electro-cyanide plant at Mystic is
said to continue in operation with good
results, making satisfactory returns on
all of the ore treated, the most of which
had heretofore been regarded as a pure
ly smelling proposition. The plant is
only of fifty tons daily capacity al is
having all it can do.
THE NORTH STAR MINE
is still working full force of men in
the various drifts on the 800 foot level.
The main work is being done on the
large vein encountered 280 feet east
from the shaft The quantity and quail
ity of the ore is still maintained, and
the company now after three years
steady development are prepared to
supply their ten stamp mill and keep it
running continuously. The mill build
ing in now complete and the machinery
nearly all in place. A few days more
and il you listen you will hear the
whistle blow.
MICA OUTPUT SOLD.
Chas. E. Mason of Custer, superintend-
ent of the Black Hills Porcelain Clay
and Marble company, visited Deadwood
this week on business for the company.
He says his company has recently sold
its entire mica output, and all the mica
that can be taken out is accordingly mar
keted at good price, The deal was
closed short time ago, after having
been authorized by the directors of the
company. At the time there was at
least 200 tons of mica on the dump at the
property, and this went in with the sale.
Mr.. Mason says the company has lately
opened its chic. mica ledge up for dis.
tance of 800 feet. The mica is of an ex-
cellent quality for electrical purposes.
Mr.. Mason returned to Custer We6nes-

INCREASE IN GOLD PRODUCTION.

The increase in gold production may
be largely accounted for by the following
reasons, viz: The improved methods in
mining machinery and milling processes
for the recovery of gold in the large low
grade deposits, and the increased popu.
larity of gold mining sincs the fall in the
price of silver owing to its dsmonetiza-

Now, Notwithstanding much outdoor

Commissioners Instead of rreeholders.

Commissioners Instead of Freeholders.
The county Republican delegate
meeting held at Pennington the day OF
the Republican Congressional Conven-
ton, ordered the Republican County
Executive Committee to prepare petit
tions and have them circulated TO OBJ
tain signatures, asking for submits
sion Of the question of changing the
system Of freeholders to that of com
misioners, in this county as provided
by law. 1t was believed that large
number both Of Democrats and Repub.
licans desired the change, and it was
thought proper that the people be al
lowed to vote upon it.
Something can be said in favor Of
both systems, but it is believed by many
that these commissioners could be helt
TO stricter accounting for their act
than can large number of freeholders
accountable only to their own town
ships
Hudson County, although Demo
cratic, has the new system in opera
ton, and it is there believed to be al
improvement over the old, and it il
said that the law was passed mainly Il
permit that county to take advantage
OF II, as there was great dissatisfaction
with the conduct of the freeholders.
We should be glad to open our col
umns to discussion of the question
so that when our voters come to acI
upon it, they may do so intelligently.
1t should be looked at, not from 0
partizan standpoint, but as to its bene
fit to the taxpayer and the advance,
ment of the best interests of the
county.

short time ago that steel rails were
selling in England at $22. 80 ton after
paying $5ll per ton for freight and
showed that rails were sold here for

land. It's object was to show that the
tariff enabled the steel trust to sell
cheaper in England than here Every

Fourth district, comprising Mercer,
Somerset and Hunterdon counties, at

s. G. Childs, the millionaire restaur.

preferring the state senatorship from

will narrow down between Colone
Perrine and Mr.. Queen.
