Miller Is a Star.


At the start. Miller is one OF the best
Jockeys ever seen on the American turf.
He gives the starter little trouble. but he
Is always away ia the first flight. He
seems to have the faculty of anticipating
the starters releasing of the barrier and
he takes advantage of it. With all his

Use latter held the inside position, and
Miller. on the outside. forced Billie Hibbs
into Ben Cole and rode his rival so close
to the fence that Radtke's boot was
scraped. Radtke narrowly missed a
broken ankle.
This rough-and-tumble finish was the
elimination of the jealousy Miller has

THE FARMERS UNION
From the Equitable Union:

From the Equitable Union:
Scarcely farmer can now be found
in all the United States who does not
believe that controlled marketing can
and will secure equitable prices for
farm products, and that the farmers
themselves, acting in an organized
and re presentatives capacity, can de-
termine what those prices must be:
and Othe" industries, trades md pro-
fessions concede the fact, while specu-
lative trusts and combin ations have,
in many cases, been compelled to
acknowledge it. With these facts be-
fore us and this record of accomplish
ment, we enter 1907 better equipped
than ever before, and, if possible,
more determined to keep these truths
before the people-to impress them
with stronger argument, fortified by
more untiring research, and prOmul-
gated with still greater persistence.
The farmer is blamed for high prices
when he really receives but small
part of the price paid by the consumer.
The price of wheat cuts little figure in
the price of -four. In order to get
something that can compete with rice
as food material in China and
Japan, that millers try to keep the
price of wheat as low as possible, and
in order to raise the price of flour to
home consumers they form trust.
They are always bears on the wheat
market and bulls on the flour market.
As the farmers furnish all the wheat
and use large part of the flour, they
get it "a comm an goin'."
Mr.. Sherman, after his sweeping
victory in Kentucky, has gone to
Kansas, where he expects to conduct a
similar campaign among the wheat
growers. If the tobacco grove OF
thirty counties can, in campaign OF
forty two days, absolutely take their
product out of speculation, make q
price upon it, and see unlimited capi-
tai come to their aid to sustain the
price, wheat growers ought to be
| ashamed if they can't control
their great staple product-a food
necessity.

The editor of the Douglas Herald in
his issue OF Jan. 25, said of the con-
ditiOns North Dakota as follows:
IN A NUTSHELL
Last train-January 10.
Last mall anuary IA.
Next train-(?).
Next mail (?).

Sugar-(-).
Oil-tO burn.
Print paper-!-!-(?).
What most of the people think? ?

We could say more but what's the
use.
Perhaps the editor was working un-
der the impression that everything
was tied up but-the phone wires and
they were out of reach, in some other
locality. But then it will be warmer
in July.
This of itself is certainly a
good sermon, and was taken
from the Mankato, (Minn.) Jour
nal.

sold them for liquor which he drank

DEMOCRATIC STATE TICKET.

The democrats have nominated
their State ticket and from press COM
ments it seems to be well accepted by
the party.
The people of Frederick county, If
respective of party, desired the nomi-
nation of Mr.. Jos. D. Baker who
would have made an ideal candidate,
and would have seceived a most fiat
tering vote in this and adjoining
counties.
That portion Of the Resolution
which declares for the nomination OF
the U. S. Senator by popular vote,
is to be especially commended, as it
will have the effect of having every
candidate come out in the open SO
that the people can have voice in
the choice of this most important
office. Hereto the legislators were
ofttimes selected so that their votes
could be controlled by the politicians.
We trust the coming legislature
will enact law legalizing the prima-
RIGS for all political parties, so thSt
the people will know in advance OF
the legislature converting, just who
their Senator will be.

The Kiss.

A kiss is peculiar proposition-of no
use to one, yet absolutely bliss to two.
The small boy gets it for nothing, the
young man has to steal it and the old
man has to buy it. The baby's right, the
lovers privilege, the hypocrite's mask.
To young girl, faith; to married wom-
an, hope; and to an old maid charity.
The bliss of the kiss however, is frequent
ly lessened, or lost entirely on account OF
offensive breath, of one or both of the
participants caused by indigestion or dys-
pepsia. There is no occasion for this con-
dition though for the reason that Rydale's
Stomach Tablets will soon correct the
stomach trouble and do away with the
bad breath. They 1.-THE Stomach Tablets
mot the kiss] are guaranteed by DR..
James X. Waters. Directions: Take two
boxes Rydale's Stomach Tablets and fol-
low up with the kiss as often as conven-
lent.

Old Home Week.

How often do we stop to think OF what
changes have taken place in this locality
since we were boys and girls, and OF
what changes have occurred in the past
ten, five, or even two years? Friends Of
other days have moved from our midst,
and new faces have taken their places.
The mind cannot revert to acquaintance
ships of past years without being deeply
impressed with the tender memories that
Immediately spring up.
Sometimes we must long to again see
some one or another of the chums OF our
boyhood and girlhood; to have them come
back to the old home and talk over old
times and see how different everything
is.
And those who have wandered from US
must sometimes yearn to return and re-
new old friendships and discuss the de-
lightful joys of the past and its sorrows
hallowed through their association with
by gone days.
Is there one person in this community
who cannot give list of from one to a
dozen or score of former residents who
have moved to other states?
Governor Warfield wants to send an in
vitation to each of the wanderers to come
back to their old homes in Maryland dur
ing OLD HOME WEEK, October 18th to
18th, and he wishes everyone to help him
to make the list of invitations as complete
as possible.
You can help by sending at once to W.
Dwight Burroughs, Secretary of the
Maryland Home Coming Association, 602
Fidelity Building, Baltimore, a list of the
names and present addresses of all per-
sons whom you know have removed from
this state to others. Send in your list at
once.
