CROSSES OF DONOR.
Latin Inscription that Is Puzzliug Some
Penpe,
TColumbia Record, 26th

The crosses of honor which thf
Daughters of the Confederacy have
given to veterans has a little Lat
in inscription on one side that
is puzzling great many people
The inscription is ''Deo vinces." The
Anderson Mail says:
Every one has seen the crosses
of honor that were recently given
them by the Daughters of the Con
federacy to the Confederate vetraDs
of the county. The crosses are very
pretty, though modest in design
and are greatly appreciated b, The
heroes who have received them.
On one side is the Latin inscrip
tion, "Deo vinces" When Col J. c.
Stribling, of Pedleton, got his cross
a few days ago he didn't know
what on earth that inscription meant
so he went to a Latin scholar il
the city.and asked for an Euglist
translation. The gentleman told
him it meant "God beng the jndge.'
Col. Stribliug wasn't altogether
satisfied and asked another man
who told him it meant, "God
avengeth."
Then Col. StribliDg hunted an
other man and without telling him
what the other had said, saked
what was the English for Dec
vinces." This man told him it
meant "God vlndicates."
By this time Col. Stribling was
hopelessly mystifed. He went to
Clemson college few days later and
made the rounds of the professors
there. He propounded the question
to each one and from each got new
answer.
He wrote the answers down on a
piece of paper and yesterday turned
them over to the Daily Mail. Here
they are:
by God we conquer" "God be-
ing my Judge" 'God is our refuge" :"
''God viDdicates." "Approved by
God" God is with u.s." Thou
hast been conquered by God."
Col. Stribling has given up in de-
spair. He is very proud of his cross
of honor, but it has an inscription
the meaning of which he doesn't
know and can't find out. He thinks
it means something nice, but he
would like to be certain about it.
He says that perhaps the ladies
who gave the cross can tell what they
meant by "Deo Vinces." If so, be
would like to hear from them.

GOLD.

Few persons know that the gold used
in color printing and on picture frames
is made from a composition powder of
bronze and spelter and not from pure
gold leaf, but which, however, gives the
same effect. There is another article
that is very much initiated, and that is
Hostetter's Stomach bitters. Spurious
dealers often refill the bottles, and thus
give them the same appearance as the
original, but unless they have our
Private Stamp unbroken owe the neck
they are not genuine. Refuse all such
limitations. The genuine Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters has an ~unequalled rec
ord of cures of stomach complaints back
of it, such as dyspepsia, indigestion,
constipation, billiousness, nervousness,
insomnia and malaria, fever and ague.

A News Service without Parallel.

There is ample justification for the
claim made by the Chicago Record-Her-
aid that its readers enjoy every day in
the week, Sundays included, a news SER
vice that is without parallel in range and
completeness. In addition to the indie
pendent news facilities of the Record
Herald, that paper receives the COM
plete news service of the New York
Herald and the Associated Press, and
when it is considered that its news col
umns are supplemented by all the spe-
cial features SO popular with its thou
sands of readers, it will be seen that the
Record Herald holds a unique place
among the great newspapers OF the
United States.

1t will be an important meeting.
The great victory-the passing of
the national irrigation act-will
be celebrated and the new re-
sponsibility placed upon the west
by its passage will be discussed.
The Importance of this great act
of constructive legislation-se-
cured by the united action of the
friends of national irrigation re-
CARELESS of politics-is not yet
fully appreciated, even in the
states most directly concerned.
An entire day ofthe congress will
be devoted to the national irriga-

bilities. and leading irrigation ex-
perts and business men OF the
country will be in attic ndance and
take part in the discussions.
Governors of states, mayors of
cities and officers of the organiza-

RE-OPENED.
The n. P. This Week Opens
the Shops at Dickinson
with a Larger Force Than
Ever,
Nineteen New Engines.

Some weeks ago the PRESS ventured
the assertion that the N. P. shops at
Dickinson would soon be re-opened, and
this week the official order was issued,
much to the qualification of every one.
Foreman w. J. Littlehales received
the order on Monday, which provided
for a night foreman, l machinist and two
helpers, l boilermaker and helpers, as
a starter. This place never had a night
foreman before and the machinist and
boilermaker never had but one helper
each.
This means that a large amount OF
machinery is to be brought to Dickinson
at once and that many Improvements
are to be made in the N. p. shops which
have been practically closed for several
years, while the company was trying the
costly experiment of washing out and re-
pairing engines only at Mandan and
Glendive. Under this arrangement the
locomotives soon broke down and, as ev-
| cry one knows, the N. P. has been un-
| able to handle the business, especially
this season.
The engineers are being assigned en-
| gines, which means that when theycome
in from Mandan their engines are wash
ed out and repaired and turned back
with the same crew instead Of being
pushed on to Glendive in other hands,
as has been the practice for some time
back.
The engineers, who run west of Dick
inson, will work in the same way, every
man having an engine thar is in good re-
pair and capable of making the required
run in a reasonable length of time.
Nineteen new engines have just been
received here, and everything goes to
show that things will be very busy in
Foreman Littlehales' department.
The pay of the coal-dock force has
been advanced from SI.5o to sl.75 pei
day, and it seems to be the policy Of the
company to pay good wages. put new
equipments where needed and to get in
to position at once to take care of thu
immense business now in sight.
Travelling Engineer c. E. Allen wa
in the city several days this week help
ing to get the new shop force started.

WINTER is almost here and the
coal strike apparently as far from
settlement as ever Hard coal is
worth almost its weight in gold
and intense suffering among the
poor of large cities must result,
even should the strike be settled
at once, as prices for all kinds of
fuel will be high. The residents
of western North Dakota are es-
pecially favored in having a good
quality of soft coal and plenty of
it at their very door.

THE PATCHED TICKET.

Week before last a few gentle
men got together in Dickinson
and-without the aid of a conven-
tion-named a ticket to run in
opposition to the straight repub-
lican ticket. They boosted that
they would name the ticket and
elect it too. This ticket appeared
in the Bismarck Tribune on Sept.
II; but as two Dickinson men re.
fused to have their names. used.
considerable turning about and
patching had to be done before
the new ticket was thrown to the
breeze at the masthead of last
weeks Recorder.
From the announcements IN
this weeks PRESS from Miss
Crowley and Mr.. Killer, it aP-
pears that more patching will
have to be done, and that people
are not very anxious to run in
what cannot fail to be a losing
game.
The talk about an illegal Dick
inson primary is all bosh and
trumped up to make a little
capital tor the new ticket.
The central committee unani-
mously decided upon a mass Prl-
mary, inasmuch as there was no
basis of representation for the
new ward. Had they decided
some other way, somebody would
have kicked.
The great body of intelligent
voters of Stark county is not in
terested in this quarrel which is {
personal one between Messrs
McGillivray and Simpson. Eacl
wished to head the delegation te
the Fargo convention and Incl
. dentally do some business TO
himself. The Gladstone conven
ton seemed to be quite unani
nous in feeling that MI. McGil
livrav had had that honor severa
times and it was Mr.. Simpson
turn. The vote was conclusive.
The Fargo convention has bee
held, the state and Stark count
republican tickets are good one
and Stark county republicans
most of them friendly to bot
Mr.. Simpson and Mr.. McGi
livray-do not wish to have any
thing further to do with the
personal differences-for that an
not different party principles he
brought out the second ticket.
