Nice-president c. w. Fairbanks
wants to be President and has been
trim ming his sails for the nomina-
ton in 1908. Now that the Vexious
railroad rate bill is up in the Senate it
will be well to watch the gyTatiOns OF
Un IL Charles. Thebill has been plac-
ed in the hands of Senator Tillman and
so far he really represents the admins
tratiOn.
If Mr.. Fairbanksssits in his seat like
war; on a log and .dodges all re-
sponsibility, the Hepburn bill will
likely become law andIFairbanks will
sometime, in some way, feel the heavy
hand of the corporation interest, of
which he is, by nature and business
association, member in good stand
~
If he opposes the bill and and in his
position Of speaker, makes difficult its
passage, be affrJnts the administration
What wonderful chance to commit
political suicide! We may eXect to hear
the crash any day and people ssk"Did
he fall or was he pushed"

The row raised among the Republi-
cans of the United States has aroused
thu bitterest antagonism to the plans
and olicies of the administration.
Numbers of the old liners, are in open
revolt and the war promises to lee in
teresting. The Statehood bill will like
ly die in committee or be amended by
Foraker, an insurgent leader so as to
thwart the plans of Roosevelt. The
Philippine Tariff bill, measure lying
close to the hearts of Roosevelt and
Taft it is said will probably never
az ain see the light of day.

White EARTH'S LITTLE
GERMAN BAND

White Earth has a brass band.
The boys have met once or
twice, as the farmers all know,
from Tioga to Ross, and have
rehearsed. Those White Earth
fellows have good lungs. Bill
Stone, the famous alto artist, is
perhaps the star performer. Bill
is an air artist, second to none,
and with the aid OF a horn, will
convert his surplus stock into
music. Ole Ellingston, the man
with the strong right arm,
pounds the bass drum. After
a good summers practice, it is
hoped that Ole will develop a
muscle into proportion to Bill
Stones blowing capacity. Han
son, the lumberman, with his
bass horn is right there with the
goods. Hanson was once men,
Der OF that famous Little Ger
man Band" Duffy Thoen plays
the tuba. The boys are afraid
Duffy will confuse the Irish airs
with those OF Norway. Then
there is Fred Hermanson, the
prominent pill juggler. If Fred
plays as we'll as he compounds
drugs, he Will soon be sought by
the famous Sousa. Fred's little
brother Chris, whose only fault
seems to be that he once con-
Quoted a newspaper, is the lead
err. Both Fred and Chris play
comets. The two Smerud boys,
Jim and Adolph, have consent
ed to stop making money at
their bank long enough to spend
a reasonable amount Of time
practicing and will be valuable
members. They play the cornet
and the trombone. TO lay all
Jokes aside. White Earth has a
real live band, one which in
short time will be able to fur
nish some excellent music. The
members are among the most
enterprising Of White Earth's
citizens.

" Grew Corn Many Years.

On the famous Dalrymple farm
in the Red River Valley, 1000
acres OF corn are raised every
year while 400 hogs are raised
each year. Four hundred horses
are kept the year round, the
raising OF horses being very pro-
fitable. By acclimation, a very
good variety Of corn has been
procured. Corn has matured
each year since 1888. Wheat
has been a staple crop OF that
farm, but Of late years the owner
has diversified with good results.
He has never had a failure and
has been farming since 1875. At
that time the owner in company
with some other men obtained
possession Of $4,000 acres at
from forty to sixty cents an
acre. At the present time the
land is worth $40 an acre.

There vas a sensational killing at
Clifton last week Thursday. 1t seems
that Reese Webster, who has a con.
tract for teaming, had a dispute with
A.. M. Gillespie, who drove one OF his
teams, which resulted in a fight. They
were separated without doing much
damage. Gillespie was hot, and swore
he would kill Webster, news OF which
was carried to Webster. Gillespie
armed himself, and came down town,
found Webster, and took a shot at
him. Webster proved to be the best
man with a gun, and killed Gillespie,
without being harmed. The justice Of
the peace, after a hearing, pronunced
it a case of self defense. Gillespie left
a wife aud a large family of children.
Webster left town Sunday, to let the
matter quiet down. Both men were
members of the Norman church.

symptoms are likely to be present in any
case at one time.
Neglected or badly trented and such
eases often run into maladics which de-

result fatally.
No medicine extant has such a long
and numerous record Of cures in such
cases as DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-

In any condition of the female system,
DIR. Pierce's FavOrlte Prescription can do
only good-nevor harm. Its whole effect
Is 10 strengthen, %invigorate and regulate
the whole female system and especially
the pelvic organs. When these are de-
ranged in function or affected by disease,
the stomach and other organs Of digestion
become sympathetically dcranged, the
nerves are weakened, and a long list Of

It showed the ability Of both clubs
with the stick. Acres went into the
box for the Lordsburg club, and bis
arm gave out in the third innings,
when Captain McGrath pitched five
innings, and Cannon finished the
game. The beauties Of the game were
a running catch by Harris, hitting by

Deming team. The star player on the
