learned that one of the banks there has
been named as a depository of state

Several candidates for county Office
are beginning to show up in the field
and petitions are in circulation, as re-
quired by the primary election law.
Cavalier county was pronouncedly in
favor of primary election, but if you
today show US people concerned who
like it as far as they got, we shall be
surprised.
Governor Sarles went up to Cavalier
county's new end town on the Ct. North
ern seed special last week, and it is
claimed by the Advocate that the re-
marks addressed by North Dakota
gubernatorial head to the people OF
Sarles-his namesakes,-were not con
fined entirely to good seed, and other
agricultural topics. Political campaign
ing OF late years has truly become a
science.

Friday.

Washington. April I'm making an
effort yesterday to get the senate to
agree upon a date for taking a vote on
the railway rate bill, Mr.. Tillman
made the important statement that
n week more probably will exhaust
the general debate. He failed, how
ever, to secure the consent of Mr..
Aldrich, who said that he would not
agree to vote on the bill until it is
more nearly perfected. During the
day there were three speeches on the
measure. The first was made by Mr..
Elklns, who, while saying that the sit
uation demands legislation, indicated
many defects in the bill.
Tariff, railway mail subsidy. de-
natured alcohol and enlarged postal
facilities for Western cities were the
features in the debate in the house
yesterday.

Washington, April Elm the senate
yesterday there was a re-echo OF the
White House conference owe railroad
rate legislation, and, while the discus
sion ended in good nature, for a time
the feeling was somewhat intense.
The incident occurred at the close OF
a speech by Mr.. Stone, which was de-
voted largely to a discussion of that
conference.
Mr.. Dolliver charged that other SEN
ators had been in consultation with
the presidents of railway companies.
The intimation was resented by both
Mr.. Bailey and Mr.. Foraker, and they
demanded the m of senators re-
ferred to. These Mr.. Dolliver declined
to give.
The p~ostoffice appropriation bill,
following an ~immemorial custom,
was made the vehicle for a number of
speeches yesterday having no bearing
on the subject but of general interest
to the country. The rights of labor
were discussed by Mr.. Towne On. W

mail pay by Mr.. STEVENSON (Minn.),

a dump car ran off a siXty-foot trestle

operating the motor and car from the

stead of turning off the power. as he
thought, he turned it on at full speed
and the engine, dragging the car on
which Dinko was riding, plunged over
the end of the trestle.

The Best Guaranty of Merit
Is Open Publicity.

Every bottle of DR.. Pierce's world
famed medicines leaving the great labo-
catory at Buffalo, N. Y, has printed
upon its wrapper all the ingredients
entering into its composition. This fact
alone places DR.. Pierce's Family Medi-
cines IN a class all by themselves. They
cannot be classed with patent or secret
medicines because they are neither. This
Is why so many unprecedented physicians
prescribe them and recommend them to
their patients. They know what they
are composed of, and that the ingredients
are those endorsed by the most eminent
medical authorities.

Many years ago, DR.. Pierce discovered
that chemically pure glycerine, of proper
strength, is a better solvent and preserv-
alive of the medicinal principles resid-
ing in our indigenous, or native. medi.
cinal plants than is alcohol and, further
more, that it possesses valuable medicinal
properties of its own, being ~demulcent,
nutritive. antiseptic, and a most efficient
antiferment.
Neither of the above medicines con-
tains alcohol, or any harmful, habit
forming drug, as will be seen from a
glance at the formula printed on each
bottle wrapper. They are safe to use and
potent to cure.
Not only do physicians prescribe the
above, non-secret medicines largely, but
the most intelligent people employ them
people who would not think of using
the ordinary patent, or secret medicines.
Every ingredient entering into the COM

any such professional endorsement.
