the other day regarding the care
Of stock. he stated that the farmer
was taking better care Of stock and
instead of letting them run out on
the prairie and hustle for them
selves and facing the cold wintry
blasts. good warm shelter have been
provided with plenty Of good feed.
Heretofore, the loss Of stock dur
ing a blizzard and the intense cold
which generally followed, was very
heavy, but now this is changed and
the loss is very small indeed, due
to the better care and attention
paid to the animals during the win

The Anoka (Minn.) Union feels
sorry for those newspapers which
buy their paper already printed on
one side, and all look alike on the
inside" and expresses itself thus:
Hope to die, cross my heart, but
| actually pity those newspapers in
Minnesota which have their four
inside pages printed by the ready
print houses Of St. Paul and Min
neapolis. Never month goes by
but what stuff appears that causes
the hair to stand on end, and gives
the publishers a jar and makes them
mad, and sad and weary. Many
time this same stuff hasa suspicion
that filthy lucre is received for its
publication, which goes to fatten
the receipts Of the readyprint house
while the publisher gets nothing.
Lucky is the publisher who issues
an all at home printed paper, and
CONTROLS every column; and is not
made a monkey Of by the patent

successful farmer comes to town
these cold days, the first thing he

1t is not often a man is called
upon to swear that his land is no
good, and that another fellow as
strenuously swears that it is the
best ever, but such case was heard
in the land Office at Bismarck. w.
Ruyman some time ago made en-
try;on the mort Invest quarter Sec
tion l4-l4S-S6. Later he contest
ed the northwest quarter section
9-l4s-s6 and was given prior right
to make entry on this land. In or
der to do this he made application
to be permitted to relinquish his
first entry on the ground. that the
land was unfit for cultivation.
Meanwhile L. Lee contested the
northwest quarter Of section nine
and protested against Ruyman be-
ing allowed to change his entry
and a hearing was ordered on this
point by the land commissioner.
This hearing was held last We'd
nesday, Lee maintaining that Ruy-
mans original entry was good land

enacted last winter, is found to be

 Mr. Ramsay is good mixer and although he is up here simply on buSj- ness he has formed as extensive a per- ,onaI acquaintance in Seward and in the railroad camp, as a candidate for office.

N. J. McNei of the Nome-Ear Mountain Tin Mining Company has arrived in Nome from the north. He has been prospecting in the tin coun- try for three years with considerable success. He says he has discovered a large body of ore there. The tin is contained in quartz lodges which run along the mountain side and can be easily traced. Three tunnels have been driven into the mountain, and assays of the ore brought into Nome show 54.94 per cent tin, or $5Sl ton. A crew of men have been working since April. Stream tin has been found in considerable quantities in the Ear mountain region, and there are placer tin mines in the creeks, but the Nome-Ear Mountain Company is con fning its attention to the quartz tin. The ledge or which the company is working is 1,6OO feet in length.

What they saw on the excursion frip was a revelation ,o them and they came back with a Grmer belief in the destiny of Seward and in the reality Of the Alaska Central.

 IN NEW YORK Hughes and Hearst Each Makes Declaration of Issues From

New York, Oct. 4-CharleS E. Hughes delivered an address last night accepting the republican nomination for governor, in which he said the issue in the present state campaign Is not partisan bat that of decent govern ment The question, he said, IS whether the unholy alliance made at Buffalo which gave the democratic nomination to the candidate of the h. dependence League shall capture the state. Heasserted that the democratic management is depending for success mainly upon noisy demonstrations.
 Hearst's letter to the Independence League accepting the Leagues nomi- nation for governor was given out to- day. It says the question of the hour is to eradicate corporation control of government. which is now practically absolute. He promises to war for the exterminatiou of bosses and to put in operation direct primaries for the nomination of candidates for office. He also favorS making the term of all public offices So short that the occu- pants will not have time to become corrupt.

DR. BURNS TO LEAVE
Railroad Surgeon Gives Up His Post
 and Will Travel in Europe

Dr.. Arthur k. Burns, surgeon of the Alaska Central Railway Company since construction began, has given up the position he has held for three years and will sail with his family for the outside late this month, probably on the Portland. After visiting at sever- al places in the states he and Mrs. Burns will sail for Europe, where they will travel during the winter and probably for year.
 Dr.. Burns k one of the original band of pioneers who landed on the beach of what is now Seward from the steamer Santa Ana August' 2S, l9O3' He has remained here ever since except for a few months during the first winter. In March, 1904, he came back and organized the medical and surgical department of the railroad, remaining at its head ever since. He has had as many as 1900 men on the rolls at one time and the department has required several physicians on the staff besides attendants.
 Both Dr.. Burns and Mrs. Burns will be missed in local society, in which they have been important factors. Dr.. Burns is also one of the boys and his speeches and stories have helped to enIiNen nll stag parties.
