SUMMARY OF PIERRE's CASE.

SUMMARY OF PIERRE'S CASE.
Two very prominent German
farmers of Long Lake, Mcpherson
county, have united in a letter to
their fellow citizens, of which the
following is a translation, and it is
an excellent summers of Pierre's
argument in this contest.
"To the German farmers Of McPer-
son county:
Fellow citizens and tax payers, as
loyal citizens and tax payers, it is
our duty to vote for u own inter
ests and the best interests of the
state.
The following are the reasons
why we will again vote for Pierre:
First: Because Pierre is the cen
ter Of the state, and has fulfilled all
the promises she made fourteen
years ago.
Second: The states indebted
ness is large enough, and our state
tax is as large as the law allows it to
be. We are not foolish enough to
cucumber ourselves with a heavy
burden to help out the city of Mitch
ell. The southern part of the state,
in which Mitchell is located, has all
the state schools, with the exception
Of the Northern Normal at Aberdeen
and We had to pay our share of the
taxed all these years.
Third; The state capitol building
at Pierre is good enough for twenty
years: but If Mitchell should win
out, you viii see that the farmers
viii have to pay half a million dol
lars for a new capitol building. The
elaborate promises that Mitchell
makes about donating a building to
the state is nothing but humbug,
because there is no municipality that
has the right to give away buildings
that we're put up out of the tax-pay-
ers money.
Fourth: Mitchell may now have
a little advantage owe Pierre in
accessibility, but bow long before
the country west of Pierre will be
settled up, and then there will also
be plenty Of railroads, and the peo-
pie that want TO 60 to the seat of
government for business can easily
get there. How many of us farmers
want TO 90 to Pierre or Mitchell on
business
Fifth: The Milwaukee railroad
company and Mitchell boomers are
at the bottom of this capital removal
scheme. Ii was not started because
the people were dissatisfied with
Pierre. Do not believe for a moment
that the Mitchell boomers are work
ing for our best interests. They
work for their own pocket books,
and not for us farmers and tax p
ers.
We hope that you will consider
the above facts, and that you will
see on election day that the cross is
put before the word mo" in voting
ON the capital removal question.

PERIL IN THE HAND-SHAKE.

Not long ago DR.. ]. n. Hirsch, of Chicago,
said: "The most delicate perfume upon the
hands is not a sign of freedom from germs,
and the most refined are not free from dis
ease of lungs or throat, and the germs are
rapidly spread by touching the hand that
has handled the handkerchief of one affiict-
ed with a cold, catarrh or consumption.
The breath one inhales from the lungs OF
another may contain germs of disease" You
will not only be able to resist the germs OF
consumption but many thousands OF cases
have been known where persons who were
suffering from incipient phthisis, or the
early stages of consumption were absolutely
cured by DR. Pierce Golden Medical Dis
covery. 1t maintains PERSONS nutrition
by enabling him TO eat, retain, digest and
assirnilate food. 1t overconles the gastric
irritability and symptoms of indigestion,
and thus the person Is saved from those
symptoms of fever, night sweats, headache,
etc., which are so common.
An Alternative extract like DIR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, made OF roots
and herbs, without the use of alcohol VIII
assist the stomach in assiinilating or taking
UP from the food such elements as are
required for the blood, will assist the liver
in throwing off the poisons in the system.
Do not permit some designing druggist
to insult your intelligence by offering you
a remedy which he claims IS just as good
because lie HlaQS ~ up nlniSSllr W eSh
chances to ore you will get a medicine
made up largely of alcohol, which will
only weaken the system.
DR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
is heartily recommended by every person
who has ever used it and it has stood the
test of thirty light years Of approval from
people all over the United States.
