Every excess causes defect; every
defect an excess. Every sweet hath it's
sour; every evil its good. Every faculty
which is receiver of pleasure has an
equal penalty put on its abuse. For
every thing you have missed you have
gained something else. The ingenuity
of man has been dedicated to the solu-
ton of one problem how to detach the
sensual sweet, the sensual strong, the
sensual bright, from the moral sweet, the
moral deep, the moral fair-to get one
end without the other end. We can no
more halve things and get the sensual
good by itself than we can get an inside
that shall have no outside, or light
without shadow.
"You cannot do wrong without suffer
ing wrong. The borrower runs in his
own debt. Commit crime and the
earth is made of glass. There is no
such thing as concealment. Commit a
crime and it seems coat of snow fell
on the ground such as reveals in the
woods the track of every partridge and
fox and squirrel. You cannot recall the
spoken word, you cannot wipe out the
foot track, you cannot draw up the lad
der so as to leave no inlet or clew.
Always some damning circumstance

Will Test Organization

Actions have been brought before the
supreme court to test the legality of the
organization of Mckenzie county and
the legislative enactment by which the
mine townships"-I41, 142 and l43 in
SO, 50 and oo-were added to Mercer
county.
In the Mckenzie action John Frish,
the relater, claims the organization is
repugnant to sections II, 10 and l67 'f
the state constitution and that at the
time Of the Legislative organization there
we're not 10 o bona fide settlers in said
territory.
F. !helan brings the Mercer county
action in view of his ownership of some
1000 acres in the disputed tract, and on
account of the continual disputes arising
over the jurisdiction of Mercer county
officers over said territory
The intention of the plaintiffs is to
establish once and for all the status of
the unorganized portion of the trans
Missouri section of the state and the
right of the legislature to organize such
territory by special act. The hearing is
set for January 90 and the result will be
watched with great interest.

the existing order of things would be up.
set and all the transactions of past years
annulled, resulting in untold confusion
and working great hardship upon many
The question of the organization Of
Hettinger, Bowman and Dunn counties
by the legislature is a vital one, and
along this line the decision of the
supreme court in the Mckenzie case will
be Of especial interest, inasmuch as the
said county was organized by special ac,
of the legislature two years ago.
The unorganized counties referred tc
are rapidly settling up with permanent
settlers from the eastern states, an intel
ligent, energetic class of people, who, al
present, have no vote or part in state
and county affairs and consequently there
is no law under which school districts car
be organized. Thus it will be seen tina,
organization is imperative to these set
tiers.

Were young person to write down a
list of his duties, health should be among
the first items in the catalogue. This is
no exaggeration of its value, for health
is indispensable to almost every form of
human enjoyment. Should man love
the Lord his God with all his heart and
soul and mind and strength, he would
have ten times more soul and mind and
strength to love him with in the vigor of
health than in the weakness of disease.
Not only the amount of labor, but the
quality of labor which a man can per-
form, depends on his health. The work
savors oi the workman. If the poet

blood flows to an authors brain, it be-
clouds his pages; the labers of a con.

Knife River Route.

1t is given out on what seems to be
reliable authority that the Northern Pa
cifc surveying party north have received
instructions to run line early in the
spring from Mercer county west along
the Knife river passing into the Bad
Lands south of Kildeer mountains, per-
haps near Fayette, and into the fine
country beyond the Little Missouri river.
Such route would open up splendid
country and many of the old settlers
north look upon the Knife river route as
very feasible. The grade is said to be
fine.
It seems to be conceded that the
Northern Pacific has settled upon its
line north from Mandan into Mercer
county.

The Dickinson Commercial Club
rooms, located over the Merchants Ma
tional bank, on the corner of Barnes and
Oakes streets, are now open at all times
to the members of the club.
The club, which has membership of
about seventy, was organized in April,
1906.
The object of the corporation is to en-
courage and promote the commercial
and manufacturing interests of the city
of Dickinson; to foster and encourage
through social intercourse public spirit
and feeling of loyalty to the city; to pre-
mote the growth, development and
beauty of the city; to work in every way
possible for good roads; to assist in max
ing Dickinson city of homes; to de-
velop the jobbing and wholesale interests
of the city; to encourage manufacturing
within its limits; to advise and assist in
municipal Improvements looking to the
accomplishment of the aims heretofore
set forth; to own real estate on which a
home may be built for the club, and to
establish such social features as will
assist in carrying out the aims of the cor
poration.
If the object of the organization can
be materialized according to the hopes of
the members, not only Dickinson, but
also good share of Stark and counties
tributary, will be benefited.

WHAT is PE-RU-NA?.
Is It a catarrh Remedy, or a
Tonic, or IS it Both?

Some people call Peruua grea,
tonic. Others refer to Peruna as a
great catarrh remedy.
Which Of these people are right?
Is it more proper to call Peruna a ca
tarrh remedy than to call it a tonic?
Our reply is, that Peruna is both q
tonic and q catarrh remedy. Indeed,
there can be no effectual catarrh rem
edy that is not also a tonic.
In order to thoroughly relieve any
case Of catarrh, a remedy must not
only have a specific action on the mu-
cous membranes affected by the ca.
tarrh, but it must have a general tonic
action on the nervous system.
Catarrh, even in persons who are
otherwise strong, is weakened con-
dltlon of some mucous membrane.
There must be something to strength
en- the circulation, to give tone to the
arteries, and to raise the vital forces
Perhaps no vegetable remedy in the
world has attracted so much attention
from medical writers as HYDRASTIS
CANADENS1S. The wonderful eff
cacy Of this herb has been recognized
many years, and is growing in its hold
upon the medical profession. When
joined with CUBEBS and COPAIBA a
trio of medical agents is formed in Pc.
runa which constitutes a specific rem.
edy for catarrh that in the present
state of medical progress cannot be
improved upon. This action, rein
forced by such renowned tonics as
COLL1NS0NIA CANADENSIs. COR.
YDALIS FORMOsA and CEDRON
SEED, ought to make this compound
an ideal remedy for catarrh in all its
stages and locations in the body.
From a theoretical standpoint, thee
fore, Peruna is beyond criticism. 1ne
use Of Peruna, confirms this opinion
Numberless testimonials from every
quarter Of the earth furnish ample
evidence that this Judgment is not
over enthusiastic. When practical ex
perience confirms well-grounded the.
