A woman's Reflections.

Philadelphia Ledger.
II there is anything a woman envies a
man 1t is his power of sublime and perfect
inconsistencies that he can ever bore any
woman.
Statistics show that ten men desert their
families to one woman. and yet women
are blamed for race suicide.
The new woman has got so she carries q
latchkey, but she hasn't yet reached the
point where Ii Is necessary to take the key
hole along with her in order to find IL when
she gets home.
Man thinks home is the dearest spot on
earth-for a woman. II he has to stay In
1t himself for three days running he re-
sembles a bear with a sore paw.
Man has idealized the domestic woman In
song and story; yet she can't talk to him
about the children for an hour without bor-
ing him.
No one ever hears about scrubwomen or
charwomen losing their womanliness; but
it's different If she's lawyer or doctor.

Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1903-10-08

In these times of trust prosperity let
the man with fixed income, such as
clerks and wage-earners, whose incomes
do not increase with the increase
in the cost of living, ask them
selves how much of the prosperity
they are getting out of the times. If
the answer is satisfactory then let them
continue to vote the republican ticket
and "stand pat with the trusts who are
shouting that as their battle cry in the
campaign that is approaching. Let
them "stand pat and continue to .'let
we'll enough alone," and they will con-
tinue to pay high prices for their living
and their salaries and wages will con-
tinue to stay in the same place. A vote
for the democratic ticket means that
much nearer the time when the tariff
wall will be reduced with it. A vote for
the republican ticket means that the
trusts and cormorants will continue to
rule and that prices will be showed up

chase of new 125 kilowat dynamo for
the electric light plant. The older of
the two dynamos now owned by the city

ing capacity will be increased from 1900

nish light to a number of patrons who
have been for some time awaiting the
change.
The council also took under considera
tion the advlsability of having work
started this fall on boring an artesian
we'll. The matter was not given definite

of putting up new city hail next year
the council are pushing ahead the arte-
sian we'll project so as to get the work
