Graniteville, Edwin w. Robertson OF
Columbia, Emslie Nicholson and T. Z.
Duncan Of Union.
A somewhat sensational action TAX
en- BY the directors was the offering
of a $500 reward for the return OF
several important books belonging to
the Union cotton mills, with evidence
to convict the person making away
with them. These books, it is under

page journal, canvass-bound leather
back and corners, which have been
missing since October 18. after the ex
pert accountants had made partial
exa 1,inaticn of them.
One thousand dollars was offered
for their return unmutilated to Pres
ident Robertson and $500 simply for
information leading to their recovery.

OUR CHANGING CLIMATE.

A Bismarck correspond dent
writes an eastern paper that the
change in the climatic conditions
in this state are such that peo-
pile who have been absent from
the state for ten years can hard
iX believe the conditions at the
present time possible. The cor:
respondent rightly thinks that
the period Of drouths is over.
There may be occasional ones,
for no country fit for the habi-
tation of white men, is perfectly
safe from them. But, there
Y. I'LL be none such as the early
settlers experienced. The rea-
sens are palpable. The changed
conditions of the northwest are
responsible for the change in the
climate. Before the country was
broken, the sod was impervious
to water, and the raj fall ran
from the surface into the coulees
to be carried to the lakes and
rivers, leaving no moisture for
evaporation. Each season this
condition grew worse, the
amount of available precipitation
gradually becoming less. To
make matters worse, the Indians
We're in the habit of burning the
prairies in order to drive the
game to the rivers and lakes,
and this, left the surface of the
prairies parched and barren.
With the breaking Of the land
more moisture was absorbed, and
consequently more was retained
for evaporation, and more rain
fall resulted. Each year more
land has been broken, thus en-
larging the water absorbing
area and the reverse Of the early
conditions is making the rainfall
each successive year larger. The
breaking Of the lands in western
Canada, and the prevailing winds
from that region, moisture la
dened, which meeting the warm
er currents from the south in
this reg ion causing heavy pre-
cipitation, is another strong fac
tor in taking North Dakota out
of the arid belt.

COLD FACTS ABOUT HOME
BUYING.

Why do the people send their
money away from home, out of
the city, out of the county and
out of the state, for groceries
and other merchandise without
giving their home merchants an
opportunity to figure with them
on their bills? This week a
farmer was showing US a bill of
about SITS which he bought for
the threshing season from a
grocery pedler, man that does
not pay one cent of taxes in the
city, county or state, or help to
build up or increase the value of
your property in any way. On
this bill the farmer saved 35cents
per 100 pounds on 500 pounds of
sugar, and S1.75 on one can of
coffee, which looks like a big
saving. Buthe paid $l.76 each
for a l6 ounce bottle Of vanilla
and lemon extract that he could
have bought from his home mer-
chant for 65 cents each paying
just $2.22 too much for two
.16 ounce bottles Of extract. On
a S cent can of baking powder
he paid so cents more than his
home merchant asked for it.
Taken on the whole bill the
nome merchant could have saved
the farmer a few dollars and
made a dollar or two himself
besides keeping the money at
home, helping to build up the
city and county, and in encour-
aging the merchants to build
larger stores and to carry better
stocks. Better give your HON e
merchants an opportunity to
figure with you. It will pay
YOU. ~E

Accustomed to the forms of

people have chosen, and they
have chosen in a manner that
sets a brilliant example to the
world in the settlement of great
questions by brains rather than
by Drawn. Probably no other
people could have passed through

thrown off their guard and made
mistakes. But her statesmen
have been patriots of the highest
intellects and most fervent zeal,
her people have been thought
full and intelligent, and the ques'
tions submitted to them by the
ministry have been decided with
calmness and intelligence. and

sacred as human liberty. The
