DO 1T TODAY"

The time-worn injunction, Never put
off till tomorrow what YOU can do to-
day." is now generally presented in this
form: "Do it to-dayl" That is the terse
advise we want TO give you about that
hacking cough or demoralizing cold with
which you have been struggling for sew
eral days. perhaps weeks. Take some
reliable remedy for it To-DAY-aud let
that remedy be DIR. Boschee's German
Syrup, which has been in use for over
thirty-fve years. A few doses of it will
undoubtedly relieve your cough or cold,
and it's continued use for few DAYS will
cure you completely. No matter how
deep-seated your cough, even If dread
consumption has attacked your lungs,
German Syrup will surely effect a cure
as it has done before in thousands of ap-
parently hopeless cases of lurg trouble

Blind Locations.

A locator by the name OF Mel
son from Minotcame up last week
with a crowd Of about 25 Sean
dinavian farmers, to locate them
here. On account Of the blizzard
they had to return without look
ing the country over and we un-
derstand were induced to file
blind on Mr.. Nelson's word as to
the quality of land they got.
The sections they are reported
to have filed on, we know per-
sonally, are practically worth
less and if Nelson reported it fit
for anything but grazing for a
hardy breed of goats, he ought
to be lynched. He probably
knows as much about this vicin-
ity SO the Minot locator who got
lost 10 miles from town in day.

s.lty.'' Up their hands went like
a fash for they knew that he
meant business and he did. He
had only one shell in the gun but
he would have done business with
that at least. The men were ta-
ken to Bowbells where not an
officer could be found. One Of
them went out of town and Sc
cured the services of a constable,
VIM. Shockley, who took the
men in charge and the following
day took them to Minot. He
was assisted by Hendrickson.
Larson feels sore because the
man who fixed the warrant in
Bowbells charged him S., but
said he would have paid twice
the amount before he would let
the man get away.
One OF the Rock boys was to
have been married the following
day and he would have had en-
ough money to pay the preacher,
for there were just 64 bushels of
wheat on the sleighs. Over 1900
bushels of wheat have been stolen
about Bowbells from time to
time, and circumstantial evidence
now points towards the Rock
boys.
Mr.. Larson and his witnesses
were in Minot Saturday to at
tend the trial but the boys plead
guilty and Saturday afternoon
received their sentences.

Stealing his Wheat and Rounds Them

Lawrence Larson, who formerly

Bowbells because he brought to
Justice three bold bad fellows,
the Rock brothers, who for four
years have been stealing grain in
the vicinity OF Bowbells. Mr..
Larson is now engaged in farm
ing a section Of land three miles
south OF Bowbells, and as he is a

his granary well filed with seed

3o'clock, he was awakened by

horses and started'for the gran

Ordered the Road Opened.
The road about the Nels Selfors
farm north of Minot was ordered
opened by Commissioners Swan
son and Torbenson. Sefors wants
5000 damages. Commissioners
Swanson and Torbenson went to
the Nels Selfors farm eight miles
north Of town Saturday morning
and viewed the road. Mr.. Selfors
refused to allow anyone to drive
around the slough on his farm
and the result was that traffic
on that road was delayed. The
water in the slough in the spring
OF the year is always very deep
and Mr.. Selfors placed a fen e
around the slough SO no one
could pass on his farm. The
Commissioners ordered the road
opened, but Mr.. Selfors will carry
the case to othe district court. He
wants the county to pay him
5000 damages. Commissioner
Swanson believes that he will not
be damaged if the road extends
around the slough, because when
the slough is full OF water, it is
useless anyway, and when the
road is moved, he can cut the
hay in the slough all in one
piece.

Backers of Land Law Repeal

1t is a common trick.of polit-
icians, when they want to de-
feat a measure ofpublic interest
for the benefit Of private inter-
ests to which they are devoted,
to raise the cry that the rail-
road wants it. The mistaken
impression that every thing
the rail road wants is opposed
the public interests is sufficient
ly general to make this a good
card to play. The congression- .
al attorneys Of the land grab
bing corporations that are re-
sisting the repeal OF the desert
land act and the homeste ad
communication law can muster
only one argument that they
venture to bring to ligh Of day.
This argument is that the land
grant rail roads want public
land withdrawn from entry, so
that they can sell their rail
road lands.
The fact is that the land-grab
rail roads have an advantage
over the government in dispos-
ing Of lands already, because they
can sell them in any quantity. If
the rail roads were willing to sell
their lands in large tracts, prob
ably they could close them out
in a month to the very corpor-
ations that are trying to mon
opolize the public lands in ad-
vance OF irrigation. But the
rail roads are strongly opposed
to land monopoly, for a purely
selfish reason. Their first inter-
est is to divide the Land as
much as possible and sell them
to the largest number ofholders.
The money they get for land
sold is trifling in comparison
with the annual freight earnings
from a we'll settled farming COM
munity.
The rail roads are backing the
repeal movement: as they backed
the Irrigation movement, for the
same reason that mercantile
and manufac turing associations
individual iobbing houses and
manufactures all over the
country are backing it They
all want the west filled with
thriving farmers, who will raise
grain and stock and buy goods
so as to increase the trade and
traffic OF the country. Their
selfish interests is common with
that of the landless people, who
want an opportunity to get
farms. That common interest
is opposed to that Of the land
grabbing monopoly corpora
tions, whose attorneys in con-
gress are denouncing land law
repeal as rail road job.
This is SO plain that we should
like to see the rail road CON-
panies use for the public interest
that large influence with the
senators and representatives
they are said to maintain for
their own interests -Minneapo-
lis Tribune.
