to secure proper re-
Enumeration for pOstmasters and in
crease of rent for buildings used for
postofice use has been brought into
the postofice investigation at Wash
ington and the dispatches say that
the names of Senator Hansbrough and
Representative Spalding have been
connected Herewith. It is not charg-
ed that these gentlemen have person
ally profted by their efforts to secure
adequate pay for clerks, postmasters
and postoffice quarters and the fact
that our representatives in Washing
ton have urged proper recognition in
this line rebounds to their credit.
North Dakota is developing rapidly.
In hundreds of towns the postofiice
business is doubling up every few
months and in the very nature Of
things the government at Washing
ton can hardly keep pace with the
growth. Rents are increasing and
suitable postofice quarters will cost
more from year to year. And then
again the pernicious system Of the
department in accepting unsuitable
quarters simply because the low rent
as a result OF local strife among real
estate brokers, is responsible for
much trouble and certainly justifies
congressional interference to prevent
injustice to. the public No personal
gain has accrued to either Senator
Hansbrough or Representative spald-
ing in their efforts to secure proper
compensation from the government

patrons In this state and the gather

,. e. JONES' CONFIDENCE IN
HYOMEl. .~.. =,

Not a Penny Need be Paid Unless It
Cures You Of catarrh. 80 +
"Use Hyomei and be cured of ca
tarrh;' says B. e. Jones. When re-
sponsible business house like this
comes out and advertises that Hyomei
will not cost penny unless it does all
that is claimed for it, it shows what
remarkable confidence they have in
this scientific medical treatment. =.
A complete Hyomei outfit consists
Of neat inhaler, that can be carried
in the pocket or purse, medicine
dropper and bottle Of Hyomei, and
costs but 81. &..,.s.,
The inhaler lasts a lifetime and
when extra bottles of Hyomei are
needed, they can be obtained for 50c.
This treatment does away with all
disagreeable and dangerous stomach
dosing. Breathed through the Hy-
omei inhaler for a few minutes four
times day, it impregnates every par
ticle Of air taken into the air passages
and lungs with germ-hlling and
health giving balsams. In this way Il
cures the most chronic and deep
seated catarrhal diseases Of the ali
passages and respiratory organs. s i
The user is the sole judge whether
Hyomei is to be paid for or not. 4
it does not help, B. E. Jones will
cheerfully return the money and Il
will not cost q penny. VA,

Committee, member of the Committee
ON Ways and Means, and chairman Of
the Republican Congressional Com
mittee, his services have been Of a.
national, rather than district char.
acter, and his constituents have ''hon-
ored themselves ins honoring him." as
Gov. La Toilette expressed it on one
occasion.
1T would be a reflection on Mr.. Bah.
cock to say that the contest made by
the state administration to compass
his defeat contributed to the result of
the campaign. 1t Is possible-even
probable had not Gov. La Fol
lette so ordered, there would have
been no opposition to his renomina-
ton. But the result, even after the
most bitter, indicative, and unscru-
pulous campaign ever waged against
a candidate for Office, was a practical
ly unanimous nomination, only one
county of the seven having chosen
delegates who were out of harmony
with the Overwhelming sentiment of
the district.
"But it is fair to presume that the
contest will have another consequence
that was not considered by the state
administration when it entered the
field. For more than two years men
of respectable standing in the state
and newspapers that had no Interior
ends to serve have objected to Gov.
La Follette's arbitrary, dictatorial
policy. They have asserted that he
resented as personal insult any sug-
gestions thst his views we're not al
ways correct; that to differ with him
in his oponion was a mortal sin; that
to refuse to be guided by his will was
equivalent to a declaration of war;
and that when he threatened Ito
wipe from the political map of the
state any man who opposed" the poll
tical schemes he fathered it was his
intention to carry out that programme
in letter and spirit.
Probably no man in the state. had
more to do with making R. M. La Fol-
lette the nominee of the republican
party for governor of Wisconsin in
1900 than Representative Babcock, and
yet, when Mr.. Babcock could no long
er agree with him the governor de-
creed the political death Of the Third
district member At the first sign of
opposition years of friendship and
personal obligations vanished and
word went out to the faithful La Fol
lette following that it must kill Bah
cock politically. Those who were not
quick to respond to the command
| were denounced as traitors; those
who voted in the caucuses for Bah.
cock delegates were accused of selling
their votes for money. A more dis
graceful assumption of authority was
never witnessed in this country. A
more insolent Indictment of the peo-
pie of a district-heretofore solidly
! supporting the governor-can not be
found in the history of America
IF there was any doubt about the
justice of the charge laid at the doc,
of the governor that he aspired to BIZ
a dictator it was removed by his &C
ton in the Third district campaign
He has himself proved that all tina
has been said about him in this re
spect was true, and that, even then

TREEPLANTlNG IN NORTH DA-
~ koTA.
Bulletin No. So of the state expert
ment station by Prof. c. B. Waldron
deals with tree and fruit culture in
the state and should be in the hands
Of every farmer in tie state. Prof.
Woldron explains what trees give the
best results, how they should be
planted and cared for, and summar-
ICES the utility and value Of growing
trees in these words:
The day of exploitation in North
Dakota is rapidly passing and that of
home building has taken it's place.
1T is probable that no equal popula-
Hon has a larger proportion Of home
owners than has North Dakota. This
fact coupled with the important one
that there is greater wealth per capita
in North Dakota than in any other
state gives such conditions as should
make possible class of homes
characterized by their: comfort and at
tractiveness. esr
Since the earliest days of man trees
have been considered natural and
fitting adornment and shelter for his
home. In forests primative man found
his first shelter and protection. Trees
were his necessity then and the race
can never rid itself of the instincts
developed through the long ages of
Its evolution. We may admire the
great expanse of prairie stretching
away to the horizon, as we do the
boundless ocean, but that does not
Imply that it includes the conditions
making the most desirable homes.
With the home are naturally associated
the ideas Of individuality, of snug
ness and, to certain extent, seclu-
sion, none of which can be attained If
the place seems a part of the public
domain.
In a region, too, like that of North
Dakota, where the winds have fairly
earned a reputation for strength and
persistence. trees have use as well
as beauty. Passing from the shelter
OF the forest to open country on a
cold windy day one is made aware OF
all the difference between comfort
and misery. W. ~
0 These facts are admitted by every
one, even by those that can offer no
excuse for the bare dreariness and
desolation that characterize the places
where their lives are spent. To spend
q lifetime without the presence of q
4 single natural object about which the
4 affections and memories can center
should not be an alluring prospect to
civilized man. To busy men with
their great amount of necessary work
to be done these things are often over
I looked, but for all that their impof.
lance is not less real.
Attractive homes constitute an &C.
& tive and potent force in shaping and
} determining the character OF society
and its members and after all there
IS nothing important but that. rs 4
There are certain elements IN PEG
pie that are accepted as evidences o.
I civilization. These are established
Tor the most part during the period d
childhood and youth. Nothing OF
4 earth can take the place Of a higl
h state Of civilization and they max.
but q poor bargain who sacrifice til,
possibility Of It for wealth or acres"

Colonel Isaac Washington Brown.
the .Hoosier bird and bee man." un-
doubtedly has considerable fame and
fortune.
MIR. Brown was a soldier in the civil
war. After il was over he went home
and finished his education, becoming q
lawyer. Next. a very rich grain dealer
In Chicago hired Mr.. Brown TO travel
through the great grain region OF the
land and investigate the condition OF
wheat and other crops growing In the
fields. Mr.. Brown is a man who q
always kept his eyes open, and not only
that, but he has also thought about
what he has seen
An insect called the Hessian fly was
very destructive TO the wheat crop in
those days. Being a student OF nature,
Mr.. Brown investigated the Hessian
fly. The egg OF the insects matches out
q tiny worm or larva. Mr.. Brown found
that this larva was devoured by the
million by quails. He began, therefore,
TO urge farmers not to shoot quails or
to capture their nests. but TO let them
live and encourage their increase as
much as possible. The farmers We're
sensible and look Mr.. Browns advice,
so that In time quails became very nu-
merous and even tame, and as they in
creased the destructive fly diminished
rapidly. IT In now nothing like so In
furious to the grain crop as It was.
After a while Mr.. Browns employer
died. and the bird and bee man had no
employment for some years. But he did
not waste time. He went into the
woods and fields studying birds and in-
sects. Before long he had I'm his head
more real knowledge OF them--live,
working knowledge, that is-than he
could have got from years Of book
study,
that as fast az hunters killed off
the birds, just In that proportion in-
creased the insects that ruin u fruit
and vegetable crops. Mr.. Brown talked

Brown only a few years before his
death. They had separated. and Brown
was living at the home of Nettie Nc
Lean, his stenographer. 1t was thought
that a.. reconciliation was being eff
fected between Joseph O. Brown and
his Wife. The brother thinks that the
mayor was infatuated with the stenog-

Death oran Old Citizen.

Mr.. Patrick Dryer, a well known and
highly esteemed citizen, died shortly
before 10 O'Clock last night at his home,
COS south Washington street, after a
comparatively brief illness. Death was
due to paralysis. The deceased was
stricken Sunday night, September 4, and
had been confued to his bed since. He
apparently rallied from the attack and
up to a few days ago hopes were enter
tanned tor his recovery. A change, how
ever, set in on Monday last and since
that time everything known to medical
science was resOrted to without avail,
and an hour before the end came his
family gathered around his bedside aud
awaited the fleeting of the vital spark.
Mr.. Dryer was boru in Limerick county,
Ireland, in lS43, and was therefore in
the sixty-secOnd year of his age. He
came to this country when in his teens,
and at the close of the civil war engaged
in the grocery business with his brother,
the late Anthony Dryer. Upon the
latter's death, in 1899, he relinquished
the business and retired to private life.
The deceased is survived by three child
ren-Miss Mary Dwyer and Messrs.
NJ. T. and f. j. Dryer The funeral
will take place from st. Mary's Church
Saturday morning at $3.50 O'Clock and
the interment will be made in the family
lot in st. Mary's cemetery.
