Capital is the one truly international

rREATMENr

II one is ever seized with a sudden
hemorrhage from the lungs the first
thing to be done. before the doctor gets
there. is to take dry salt as quickly
as possible. This often prevents further
bleeding entirely. A %teaspoonful of salt
is not too much to take, provided it is
done gradually, so as not to choke. The
patient should, moreover, keep perfect
ly quiet and free from excitement and
stay in a room not too hot.

Marrl1arth

Mail, March 20. Postmistress Woods
has received notice from the Postmaster
General at Washington to move the post
office to the west side of the river by the
first of April. If the river keeps up as it
has begun this feat will have to be accom-
plished by an airship route.
The breakup of the river has caused a
blockade of ice at the bridge and force
of men has been busy dynamiting the ice
in order to allow the passage of water.
The detonations sound like roar Of artil-
lery echoing among the hills,
Judging from the accounts appearing in
the outside papers, one would imagine that
the recent shooting was veritable battle.
1t was, in fact, merely an endeavor on the
part of the officials to enforce the law on
couple of toughs. A report loses nothing
by circulation, and this one apparently had
travelled several times around this mundane
sphere before it reached the vehicles of
public information.
Twelve miles north of town the banks of
the Missouri recently caved down and ex-
posed enough Ignite coal to keep this ter
ritory going for years. There are hun
dreds of tons exposed to view and the vein
extends far back underground.
A short time ago the track between Ter
ry and Miles City was blocked up. A cut
forty-6v feet deep which had been made
too perpendicular was worn away at the
base by running water and as result over
10000 yards of dirt fell across the rails,
necessitating the use of steam shovel.
Ii is now asserted up and down the line,
and as matter of fact, fact mind you, that
all the citizens of Marmarth shake hands
with their left hand, the right being firmly
clasped on piece of artillery in their
pistol pocket. Of all the damphool things
we ever heard this takes the cake. We
are confidently expecting that the next re-
port will be to the effect that no passenger
will be allowed to alight here unless he
has full grown pair of horns and spiked
tail. On with the battle!
The propriety of having reliable night
Waterman appointed is a subject of much
discussion at the present time. 1t seems
that under existing conditions theI move
would be good one. It is difficult mat
ter, if not an impossibility, to obtain insur-
ance on any of the buildings on account of
their indefinite location, and should con-
aagration occur everything would 60 up in
smoke. This is by no means a pleasant
anticipation, and reliable night watch
might have ample opportunity to reimburse
the business men for the expense of his
hire.

note that Hon. A. L. Martin, Of Sentinel
Butte. has announced his candidacy for the
Office Of State Senator. Altho he is not q
citizen Of old Montana yet he is a taxpayer.
and is we'll and favorbly known thruout this
section. Mr.. Martin is an old resident Of
western North Dakota; thoroly acquainted
with the present Is well as the past condi-
.tions that existed there. He has already
served two very successful terms in the
lower house, and has always been the chief
booster" in the way Of progress and in
looking after the interests and wants of the
people. Thus. it is superAuous to say that

Forman News: Of the various candidates.
none will rank higher in the estimation of
the people of North Dakota than E. c..
Cooper of Grand Forks. Mr.. Cooper de-
sires to succeed himselfas commissioner of
insurance and as he has shown unusual
ability in the management of that import
ant Office during his proceeding term, it is
highly probable that he will be granted
another term. He is stalwart republican.
but singularly has but few enemies-even
in his own town, Grand Forks. which is an
insurgent stronghold. Mr.. Cooper is not
exactly politician. He is better than
that, he is man who has succeeded in
politics because of honesty, integrity and
business acumen. Not breath ofscandal
in connection with the insurance commiss-
toner's Office has been possible since E. C..
Cooper was elected commissioner. Let
him succeed himself by all means!
