GENERAL GRANTS BON MOT.
Witty Rcjoinder That Is Credited to
the SILENT Han"

A portrait of Jay Cooke, by VIM. M.
Chase, is one Of the best pictures at
this years exhibition of the Philadel-
phia academy Of fine arts. Mr.. Chase
standing beneath the portrait the
other afternoon. said:
when Mr.. Jay Cooke posed for me
he told me of a bon-mot OF Gen
Grants. Grant was entertaining a
clergyman one evening, and the
clergyman had to make a certain
train on a certain railroad or he
would not get home that night
Therefore his host kept reminding
him of the hour, but he would put tho
matter off and begin to talk in his
fluent, clerical way again.
Now, doctor, remember your
train goes at 1920 Grant for the
tenth time said
That is all right about the train,
General returned the clergyman;
the Lord controls the trains
"'Yes,' Grant chuckled, but If you
want to get this A. & B. line train,
you had better start now The Lord
has had nothing TO do with the A. &
B. this many a year "-Pittsburg

can heartily recommend Peruna as a
catarrh remedy Mrs. Elmer Fleming.
Treat Catarrh In Spring.
The spring is the time to treat catarrh.
Cold, wet winter weather often retards a
cure of catarrh- If course of Peruna is
taken during the early spring months the
cure will be prompt and permanent. There
can be no failures if Peruna is taken intel
ligently during the favorable weather of
spring
AS systemic catarrh remedy Peruna
eradicates catarrh from the system wher
ever it may be located 1t cures catarrh
of the stomach or bowels with the same
certainty as catarrh of the head.
If you do not derive prompt and salts
factory results from the use of Peruna. write
at once to DR.. Hartman, giving full state
ment of your case and he will be pleased
to give you his valuable advice gratis.

c. w. Houston, trainmaster OF the
Yellowstone division of the Northern
Pacific, with headquarters at Dickinson,
has been given a similar position by
the company between Winnipeg June
ton and Pembina, with headquarters in
Grand Forks. Mr.. Houston came to the
Yellowstone division in June of 1890 as
chief dispatcher, previous to which time
he had been with the company eight
years at Staples. Mr.. Houston is a Yer
monter and got his early railroad train
ing on the Central Vermont. He is a
thorough railroad man who gains the
confidence and respect Of his fellow as
sociates and it is a safe prediction tina,
it will not be a great while until Mr..
Houston is advanced to superintendent,
OF some good division on the Northern
Pacific. Supt. Gibson is in St. Paul this
week, but it is likely that John Rapeljc
who has been acting as assistant train
master under Mr.. Houston will be given
charge of the four divisions, from Man
dan to Billings, until the work picks up
a little in the spring.

North Dakota Gaining.

The 1000 census OF the two Dakotas
present some interesting figures. North
Dakota gained in population between
1890 and 1000, 13o,427 or 74.7 per cent.
South Dakota during the same time
gained 72,762 or 22.1 per cent. 1t will
be seen that North Dakota gained al
most two in population where South
Dakota has gained one. Fourteen u
Ties in South Dakota lost in population
between 1890 and 1000, while every
county in North Dakota showed a gain
in population all the way from o,ol2 in
Cass to $50 in Oliver. The counties in
North Dakota that show the greatest
gains are Cass, o,o12; Well, 1908; Ward,
$3.50; Richland. $685.; Barnes, 6,l15;
Cavalier, o,1oo; Grand Forks, 6,Io2;

kilograms in Brief
POLITICAL.

Friends of Roosevelt assert that
he can give the democrats New York
Indiana and Illinois and still win In
1904.
President Roosevelt spoke in Min
neapolis on subject OF tariff and reel
procity. He said the policy of pro
lection should be adhered to, and
that much could be gained by re
ciprocity.
Secretary Shaw was reLuked by
President Roosevelt for his conduct
OF the treasury department. The
threatened overhauling of the Cnl
cago customs service and lismissale
at New York and Washington are the
supposed reason.
President Roosevelt In an address
at Sioux Falls, declared that disputes
between capital and labor can be
solved II each desires to act fairly.
President Roosevelt spent Sunday al
Sioux Falls attended church and
went horseback riding.
President Roosevelt, in an address
at Milwaukee, declared trust evils
the inevitable result OF social
changes which the law cannot en-.
tirely cure Exposure Of unlawful
practices and supervision by the new
department of commerce are certain
to do much good.
Generally republican victories re.
suited from the municipal elections
Monday. Elections Of mayor and
other city officials were held in Ohio,
Michigan, North Dakota. Montana,
and in some towns in Iowa. One of
the hottest contests Of the day was
the ono ut Cincinnati, where Julius
Flelschmann, republican, and many
times a millionaire, was elected by n
majority Of at least 1900 over M. Il.
Ingalls,, president Of the Big -Four
railroad. All other candidates on the
republican ticket also won. In
Toledo, Sam Jones, running on non
partisan ticket, was reelected mayor,
but all other republican candidates
won. Mayor Tom Johnson. democrat,
was reelected. In Michigan the 70.

plurauies ranging from $4,000 to
10000, the officers elected being
Frank A. Hooker Justice OF the
