We Have Many Friends Here In Town
Who Are Subject 10 Such Trouble.

Colds if neglected lead to serious and
often fatal consequences.
Do not go on living with the continual
dread of catching cold. There Is no need
Of it. People who take cold easily do SO
because their system is In just the con-
dition TO contract them.
We know Of something that will
quickly drive colds out of the system by
invigorating the entire body. 1t is Vi
MOL, the great tonic reconstructor, that
contains all the active curative principles
found in cod liver oil.
Here is one letter that we nave had
presented TO us that we would like our
friends 10 read:
Il have been suffering from a severe
cold for number Of weeks, and having
heard so much about VINOL as being a
cure for such troubles, / decided 10 try
it. Two bottles entirely cured me and l
now feel In better health than ever be-
fore in my life. J. NJ. Brown, 319 w.

Remember that if you do not find that
VINOL is all that we claim for it we are
always glad TO refund TO our customers
the money that they pay US for it, which

A KICK COMING.

Very properly the newspapers
of this state are raising objections
to the way in which the Twin. City
papers have lately lent their col
ums to the booming of the chesp
government and railroad lands OF
the Canadian Northwest to the
detriment of the settling up of
large sections of the cheapest and
best farming lands right here in
North Dakota, Papers, such as
the Minneapolis Journal for an in
stance, show a near sightedness to
say the least, in lending their
efforts to turn the tide Of immigra-
ton away from this and other
western states to Manitoba, Sas-
katchewan and Assiniboa in the
Northwest Territories when equal
ly as good opportunities present
themselves to the new settler of
obtaining lands at low prices on
this side of the boundary line.
There are thousands of acres in
western North Dakota which will
beat that Manitoba country all to
pieces for stock raising, dairying
and mixed farming II these big
dailies of the Twin Cities would
take as much pains to boom some
parts of the United States as they
do that Canadian country, it would
take better with the people. They
might just as wall encourage the
raising of wheat, fax and other
grain in India, Russia and other
foreign countries so as TO make
more competition with our farm
products. North Dakota offers
better inducements to the farmer
to the stock ra;se and to the in
weston than doe any Of that Cana
dian country. We have room
enough here fof two million more
people NORTH Dakota is bound
to become the greatest and bes
agricultural and stock raising dis
trict in the jEite} States inside o.
a few years.

use in marking up majorities at

UP TO THE FARMERS.

The leaders Of the opposition
feel that they have named ticket
satisfactory to them, the bosses,
and they are quietly resting, con-
tent with the idea that the $4,000
majority Of the party will elect
shelr candidates. 1t is a large
majority to overcome, to be sure,
but in these days Of Independent
thought and action it is not ALWAYS
safe to depend on even so large a
majority. The farmers of this
state have with them the say as to
whether they will continue to elect
the ticket that stands for tariff and
trusts, twin evils that work hand
in hand to despoil them, making
their products of less value and
increasing the price of everything
which they purchase; or by defeat
ing that ticket administer just
rebuke. It is the farmer who is
interested; it is the farmer. who
bears the burden. If he feels chat
he can afford to pay literally from
the proceeds Of his grains and pro-
duce to keep in power the party
that imposes the burden, then he
should by all means vote the ticket.
1t was not of his making to be
sure, nor did the farmer delegates
at the nominating convention have
anything to say about who should
be nominated. If he is given rep.
resentation at all on the ticket it

THE COST OF LIVING.

During the campaign OF l9oo no
publication in the United States
contributed more to the republl-
car cause than Harper's Weekly.
Inis pu bllcation had much to say
concerning the full dinner pail, .
and il made frequent appeals to
the workingmen that they cast
their vote SO that there would be
10 interference with their lunch
bucket. In recent issue that
paper offers q half hearted apol-
oyv for existing contlons: it says:
1t seems to cost good deal to live
nowadays. Most persons notice 1t, es-
pecially persons who are hard put to 1t
to fnd the money to pay their bills. The
statis.icians report that commodities IN
general use cost 90 an average about 10
per cent more than they did year ago.
The rise in the price OF meat contributes
a good deal to this advance though bread
stuffs nave been high too. Articles OF
luxury, like good clothes and country
houses have grown dearer IN proportion
than most articles OF necessity, because
OF the Influx o. money that the country
has sustained has made brisk market
for luxuries. Rents are higher; houses
houses cost more; servants get high.

living expenses Of any given family are
very much affected by the expenses OF
other families OF their acquaintance, and

veniently liberal. There is nothing We

1t is easier to economic when it is the

This republican authorityis very

corning the increase in the cost OF
commodities in general. Instead
of being about 10 per cent more
than they were a year ago, these
commodities may be said to be
about % per cent higher. Wages
