ANOTHER NEW INDUSTRY.
The seIf-Pitchers to be Manufactured
III In Aberdeen. 4

Incorporation lSssoon to be organ
lzed to Start still another new indus
try in Aberdeen. August Zastro
comes up from Kansas with an inyen-
tlon that is scertain to cuta big figure
in threshing operations in all cxten-
siye wheat growing countries. Itisa a
holsting derrick and hoisting. mechan-
ism to be attached to separators in
the form of self. pitchers. 1t requires
live men &c operate it but the work
is Very easy, SO much so that there
will be no trouble to secure men will
ing to work With it. rs it is now,
pitching is socXtremely laboriuus That
it is very difficult to secure and keep
afull crew. In fact, the thresheris
now largely at themercy of the tramp
pitcher and is more than half the
time short handed. This invention
will be a money saver in various ways.
1t insures a steady feed up to the
limit OF the machines capacity, and
grain is not shelled out by the tread
OF pitchers on the stack, to be largely
| lost
The pitcher has been tested in Kan
sas, in Brown county and in North
Dakota, and in each instance to the
utmost satisfaction of the operators.
It,can be manufactured and placed on
the market at a price that will make
it indispensable to every thresher.
Two stacks on each side Of the ma
chine are easily in reach of it, so a
igreat saving of time can be made by
less frequent moving.
| A number of citizens of this county
who have seen this self pitcher work
and who have been convinced that ii
is certain to be "a great success, have
agreed to- organize a stock company
with s25,00O capital to have them
manufactured in this city and have
an ample supply on hand in time fol
next seasons operations, The names
of the gentlemen composing this com.
pany will be announced later.

COST OF LIVING.

Exchanges are noting the fact that
the cost of living in our cities has in
creased fully 25 per cent in recent
years, while wages have advanced but
about ten, and in many instances
particularly with railroads and other
large corporations they remain the
same. Does it ever occur to the
farmer that most of this rise in the
cost of living is coming to him more
much more than to any other class
and it may be we'll to remember
too, that our living has not increased
in cost materially. The eggs, butter
cream, milk, meat, and potatoes. gar
den truck included, keep coming
about as cheapiy as ever and when
the family have all they can handle of
these things, what the balance costs
need not greatly worry most of us.
Oh, there are some advantages to
offset the many things our city friends
have which we do not. Dakota

V & y
la the kitchen, the department in
which the Sherman House always ex-i
celled, the appointments are the very
finest. The new range, Majestic,
furnished by the Witte Hardware
company, is undoubtedly the finest in
the state. The steam tai le and other
kitchen furniture are fully in keeping
with other most excellent arrange
ments. The dining room is floored
with maple, the steel ceiling a most
elaborate pattern and the walls dec
grated and papered in most elegant
manner.
The tile Office floor, costing SO cents
a square foot, 1850 square feet, is a
costly floor but none too good for the
new Sherman. A very ornamental
feature OF the office is the stairway
with ascent from rear and front, with
steps, bannisters and wainscot of the
finest red oak.
The lavatories, closets and toilet
arrangements are in the basement di-
-rectly under the Office. The work
here is done in Italian marble and the
finest cast iron enamel, by the Sim
mons Powers Co. of Sioux Falls under
the immediate charge of Mr.. Dressel-
huys. This company has the contract
for the entire plumbing and heating
outfit. Nearly all the rooms on the
second and third floors have bath
rooms accessible and all are furnished
withup-to-date telayatories. The furni-
ture and carpets are elegant. The
most fastidious high-roller could
find no good reason to complain Of
these rooms, but they are likely to
come trifle high for the common
Democrat.

PLEAD FOR PAssloNlsTs
American and British Ambassadors
Unite I'm Asking France to
Keep Fathers. "a

PARIS, Dec. THE American and Brit
ish ambassadors have made friendly rep
reservations to the French government
with a view to reconsideration Of the
Passionst Fathers, who are, included among
the religious orders to be expelled from
France. The representations we're sub
mtted on behalf Of the. English and Amer
leans attending St. Joseph's church, which
is conducted by the Passlonists.
AS the order Is an English one, II was
recognized that representations concerning
its rights must come solely from the Brit
ish officials. Mr.. Porter's representation
was, therefore, mainly verbal and pointed
out the convenience of the church to Amer
leans. II was In no sense a protest or an
assertion of international right. as 1t was
fully recognized that the governments ac-
tion toward the congregations is ques-
tion Of domestic policy.
The representations have led to per-
sonal desire on the part Of the government
officials to yield, but 1t is felt that II Is
difficult for the government to act, inas-
much as the entire question has been sub
mitted to the Chamber of Deputies. 1t is
also pointed out that an exception in this
case would give foreign religious orders
privileges which are not allowed to the
Frencn orders 1t is believed that the final
determination of the question rests with
the Chamber of Deputies.

meeting concluding with a vote Of thanks
to the speakers, proposed by T. v. Pow
derby.
Senator Patterson declared the struggle
going ON was a bloodless one and that home
rule for ireland, with landed proprietor
ship. must come ultimately.
Mr.. Blake was optimistic as to Ireland s
future. The only complete remedy, he de-
clared, to all of it's ills was to leave the
regulation of Irish affairs to the people OF
that country.
Mr.. Davitt said the land league started
twenty-one years ago to do its work. The
fight had been fierce and constant. but VIC

Week.

WASHINGTON, Dec. THE house this
week has not mapped out any program
beyond the London dock charge bill tomor-
row and the report of the election COM
mittee on the contested election from the
Twelfth Missouri district on Wednesday.
The London dock bill has been pressed
by exporting interests, especially the mill
ing interests of the northwest. and is op-
posed by the Atlantic shipping interests,
and its passage is considered doubtful.
The Missouri election case is somewhat
OF an anomaly. Mr.. Butler was unseated
at the last session. He was reelected In
November by about 5000 majority.
His opponent now contests, but in order
to secure action before March the rules
relating to the prelilnlnaries of contest.
which may be strung out for months, must
be shortened The committee recommends
that the period for preparing the case and
taking testimony be limited to forty days.

completed In time 1t will probably be
taken up about the end of the week. but

without having uttered a word.
Her breathing is deep and regular and
her heart action is pronounced good. The
physician states that he believes her condi-
tion is due to cerebral hemorrhage, and
thinks she should awaken OF her own ac-
cord about next Thursday.
"The alternative is" he said, that II
blood instead Of serum has congested in
the brain, she may pass away while asleep.
The principal symptom is a swelling of the
