WHAT SETTLERS IN SAS-

HAVE TO SAY.
Formerly from the United States.


Roshern, July sth, 1900.
Frank Pedley, Esq,
superintendent of immigration.
Strive the undersigned settlers in
Saskatchewan, Township 43, Range 6,
Deg to submit the following letter. We
came from Springfield, Bonhomme
County, S. Dakota, in the spring Of 1899.
and settled where We now reside. We
had considerable crop last year We
put in on breaking, and it was very
good, and this year 1900 our crop is
excellent. Our wheat will yield about
twenty bushels to the acre. the oats
and barley are also very good, and
our potat toes and root crop all that
could be desired. We consider this a
ine country, and are glad we came, as
our prospects could not be better. A
poor man will get start in this coun'
try much quicker than in Dakota.
We are yours respectfully,

SHIP SUBSIDY FIGHT ON.
Republican Members of the Senate Com
mittee on Commerce Authorize
Bill to Be Reported.

Washington, Jan. 1S.-The senate
committee on commerce Friday au-
thorized Senator Frye, its chairman,
to make a favorable report on his
ship subsidy bill. Senator Frye's re-
port accompanying the bill places the
cost of the mail subsidy at $4,70O, 900.
He says the receipts from ocean mail
postage will provide 100000 of this
amount, leaving a deficit under the
system proposed of nearly 100000.
The democratic members of the
committee voted against reporting
the bill. They also voted solidly for
motion offered by Senator Mallory
to strike out the general subsidy pro-
vision of the bill.

MEANS MUCH To.IHDIA.
sew Railroad from the Bosphorus to Per-
sian Gulf Brings Benighted Country
Within Eight Days of London.

Constantinople, Jan. 1s.-An trade
las been promulgated approving of
he construction of the Bagdad rail
.oad by the German Anatolio rail-
.oad. The line will be carried to the
Persian gulf. The concession for a
inc of railroad connecting the Bos-
ohorus with the Persian gulf is re-
garded as extremely important, po-
litically and commercially. When
completed it will bring India within
approximately eight days of Lon
don and it will open a new interna-
tional granary and bring consider
able part of Asia Minor under Ger
man influences. The German conces-
sion conflicts seriously with the Rus
sian plans for the extenson of the ST.
berian railroad towards India.

WORLDS FAIR POSTPONED.
Ex-Gov. Francis Admits That St. Louis
Cannot Be Ready for the Expo
sition Until 1904.

Washington, Jan. 1s.-The Louisiana
Purchase exposition, which was to
have been held at ST. Louis in 1908,
will not take place until 1904. This
fact was practically conceded by ex-
Gov. Francis, president of the expo
sition company, and Adolph Busch,
the financial agent of the company, at
the white house Friday. Since arriv-
ing here and comforting with the for
eign representatives Francis and
Busch have come to the conclusion
that unless the exposition is post
poned for year the exposition will
not be able to secure the elaborate
foreign exhibits which are desired.

TO SHIELD A FRIEND.
Southern Indiana Postmaster Pleaded
Guilty to Horse Stealing When It Was
Known He Was Innocent.

Laporte, Ind, Jan. 18.-Albert Gil
more, until recently postmaster in
southern Indiana, will be received at
the Michigan City prison in a few
days to serve an Understandable SEN
tence for horse stealing. Gilmore
made no defense. He feigned guilty
in order to save the real criminal,
who was his friend. Influence
brought to bear on Gilmore could not
shake him in his decision to go to
prison to save a man who had once
befriended him. With the develop
ment of facts which will clearly prove
Gilmore's innocence Gov. Durbin will
be asked to pardon him.

Women suffer untold misery because
the nature of their disease Is not al
ways correctly understood; in many
cases when doctoring, they are led to
believe that womb trouble or female
weakness of some sort is responsible
for their ills, when IN fact diSordered
kidneys are the chief cause of their
distressing troubles.
Nervousness, headache, puffy or
dark circles under the eyes, dragging
pain or dull ache in the back, weak
ness or bearing down sensation, pro-
fuse or scanty supply of urine, fire.
quent desire to pass it night or day,
with sca1ding or burning sensation
these are all unmistakab1e signs of
kidney and bladder trouble.
DIR. Ki1rner's Swamp-Root, the great
kidney, liver and bladder remedy,
stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.
A trial will convince anyone.
If there is any doubt in your mind as
to your condition, take from your urine
on rising about four ounces, place it in
aglass or bottle and let it stand twenty
four hours. If on examination it is
milky or cloudy, if there is a brick
dust settling, or if small particles float
about in it, your kidneys are in need
