June 30 this year" Treasurer A J.
Campbell said yesterday. up to this
date all but twenty-four holders of IL
censes have applied for renewals.
Also, as another fact, there have
been no protests of any kind filed
against the renewal of any of these
licenses.
..There are about three hundred Ii
censes in the Territory. though not so
many places, as good number have
two classes of licenses.

law may not be all that is desired, they |
are all that is avaiIab BILE for restriction |
of the traffic until a better law be

GREAT BARGAIN IN STATIONS.
"A New Importation Just Arrived
March 9TH.

My new Importation Of Percheron
and Belgian Stations consists of a
fine lot of big-boned, heavy stations
that are the type required to breed
big, heavy mares. The Percherons are
black. The Belgians are all blacks,
bays, roans, and dark rich chestnuts
in color.
My desire is to sell all these horses
within the next thirty days, and l will
sell them all at prices ranging from
$500 to $110O each. l am Offering the
farmers the greatest opportunity that
they have ever had to secure big, fine,
first-class horses at so low prices.
They are coming threes, tours
and tives in ages, and every horse is
sound, and all will be guaranteed IS
per cent breeders. Any farmer who
has some good mares can afford to come
and get one of these big colts and do
outside breeding enough to pay for him
in one season.
Every horse that l have ever sold to
this date has been satisfactory, re-
cord that no other importer can show.
Parties needing stations, please come
and see me.

LIES victory won,
Now comes rest.
No stream from it's source flows seward
however lonely it's course,
But what some lands are gladdened. No
star ever rose
And set without influence somewhere.
Who knows
What earth needs; of earths lowest

Can be pure in it's purpose and strong
in it's strife
And all life not be purer and stronger
thereby.
The spirits Of just men made perfect on
high,
The army of martys who stand by the
throne
And gaze into the face that makes
glorious their own
Know then at last honest love, honest
sorrow,
Honest work for the day, honest hope
for the morrow.
Are these worth nothing more than the
hands they make weary?
Hush! the sevenfold heavens to the
voice of the spirit
Echo--He that DER cometh shall all
things inherit.
We wish to extend our heartfelt
thanks to our many friends and neigh
bors, who have so kindly assisted us in
our great bereavement, the death of our
father and grandfather, Thomas Ward.
