North Dakota's Future.

Speaking Of present and prospective
land values in North Dakota. the Min.
neapolis Journal observes: THE average
number Of persons to the square mile in
North Dakota is only As; in Minnesota,
22,1. When North Dakota is - tbickly
settled - 10 Minnesota to day, it will
have approximately Eve times as many
peopIexas it has today say 250. 900 or l..
10000. In 1870 Minnesota had about az
many people as North Dakota has today.
It has taken Minnesota, then, only
thirty years to grow az much as North
Dakota will have to grow, T.. be as popu.
lous 40 Minnesota is today. But the field
for settlement is 60 much smaller than
It was that. North Dakota will undoubted.
~ grow much faster than Minnesota has.
As matter Of fact, the percentages
show that North Dakota is growing much
faster proportionstely. From 1880 to 1880
North Dakota gained 391.1 per cent
population. In the next decade it gained
"A. 7 per cent For the same periods MINI.
esota gained 66.7 and 34.5 per cent
respectively. 1t il quite possible that
within twenty years North Dakota
will have more than 100000. What
that means for North Dakota lands, any
Minnesota man can tell who remembers
when southern Minnesota lands that are
now going at $50 and 500 an acre, were
given away BY the government or sold at
S to SO an acre. We suppose that SIS
and so represent top land prices in NJ
Dakota to day. with immense areas
- that can be bought from those figures
down to 81 and s. an acre. 1t is certain
that land values in North Dakota will in
. decade increase At least 100 per cent
through the state 10 \ whole, while it is
taking on . million people,"

Attractive Women.

All women sensibly desire to be at
tractive. Beauty is the stamp OF
health because it is the outward
manifestation of inner purity. A
healthy woman is always attractive,
bright and happy. When every drop
of blood in the veins is pure a beau
teous flush is on the cheek. But
when the blood is impure, morose-
ness, bad temper and sallow COM
plexion tells the tale of sickness, all
too plainly. And women today know
there is no beauty without health.
Wine of Cardui crowns women with
beaut and attractiveness by maxi
ing strong and healthy those organs
which make her a woman. Try
Wine of Cardui, and in a month your
friends will hardly know you.

Ne Learned a Great Truth.

1t is said of John Wesley that he

that you are told again and again
that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy

acts any tendency of these diseases
to result in pneumonia, and that it is
pleasant and safe to take. For sale

Do GOOdlt Pays.

A Chicago man has observed that,
"Good deeds are better than real es-
tate deeds-some of the latter are
worthless. Act kindly and gently,
show sympathy and lend helping
hand. You cannot possibly lose by
it." Most men appreciate kind
word and encouragement more than
substantial help. There are persons
in this community who might truth
fully say: MY good friend, cheer
up. A few doses of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy will rid you of your
cold, and there is no danger what
ever from pneumonia when you use
that medicine. 1t always cures. l

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.


The Board of County Commission
ers held its regular quarterly meet
ing on Monday of this week, present a
full Board and District Attorney
Lothrop and County Clerk Melarkey.
The minutes of previous meeting
were read and approved.
The list of bills examined and al
lowed will be found elsewhere in
this issue.
The quarterly reports of the sew
eral county and township officers,
also the jailor's monthly report,
were read and ordered filed.
The board counted the money in
the hands of the Treasurer and
found the amount to agree with the
report of the Auditor and Treasurer.
The bonds of the several county
and township officers were over
hauled and found to be good and suf-
ficient.
The consideration of petitions for
upening public roads in Mason Val
ley was again postponed.
The petition of certain taxpayers
of Mason Valley to open up public
road through the lands of Angus
Mcleod leading to the town of Yer
ington, was laid over, and the Dis
trict Attorney was instructed to
forward to forward to Angus Nc
Leod and wife for execution a con-
veyance of right of way, and re-
lease from J. B. Gallagher for exc
cution.
The Board appointed election
boards in the several precincts.
The order heretofore made estab-
fishing an election precinct at Como
was rescinded and the precinct abol-
ished.
1t was ordered that the sum of
S2I7.77 be transferred from the Cen
eral Fund to the Officers Salary
Fund.
The Board adjourned to meet Nov.

Another Fxample.

A few days ago farmer of this
valley was in the store of one of our
local merchants and asked the mer-
chant what he could fill certain
bill OF goods for, at the same time
handing him a list of the articles
wanted, and stating that the pay
would be spot cash. The merchant,
after allowing for small profit.
found that he could fill the bill for
Just 65 cents more than the farmer
could get the goods for in Sacrament
to. This is another example of what
you can do by taking your cash to
the home merchant instead of send
ing it to Sacramento.

for District Judge.

Judge NJ. A. Murphy, the Repub-
lican nominee for Judge of the First
Judicial District, which takes in
Lyon county, has a card in this
issue. NJ. a. Murphy is particularly
counties, having been a resident of
Aurora in early days. We believe
he was first District Attorney of
Esmeralda county, then District
Judge some years ago. For the past
ten years he has resided in Carson
law business. He has had a great
deal of experience with the law, is a
just and upright man, deserving of
the position to which he aspires. He
is certainly the choice of Lyon coun-
ty voters for the position.
