1t is mistake to allow anyone to
suffer from rheumatism, as the pain
can always be relieved, and in most
cases a cure effected by applying
Chamberlain's Liniment. The relief
from pain which it affords is alone
worth many times its cost. 1t makes
sleep and rest possible. Even in cases
of long standing this liniment should
be used on account of the relief which
it affords. Do not be discouraged. un.

QUIET BEFORE STORM
This Is the Way Grafton Republican
Sizes Up the Present Political
Calm.

Grafton Republican: Since the close
Of the extra session of congress and
the speeches of President Taft through
the west the political armies have
been apparently Inactive. But the
stiffness that now prevades the air is
only seeming, and is the stiffness that
precedes the storm.
Faint rumblings can be heard now
and again, but nothing sensational has
occurred to break the peaceful quiet.
Now and again some favorite son is
mentioned as governor, but that is all.
But rest assured, good people, that the
armies are being prepared for one Of
the greatest struggles that has oc-
cured for years.
In the west McCumber is fitting
from one town to another and laying
plans, making friends, and becoming
more solid than the majority OF people
can imagine. or in the east in some
obscure place Hansbrough is putting
the finishing touches on his book Of
economy that doubtless contains some
startling revelations. We have heard
That Marshall will be in the fight.
These little things show which way
the winds blow.
1t will not be long before the call to
political arms will be heard in every
city, town, village hamlet in the state.
The thunder of the orator will be
heard above the rumbling Of the mills
of industry. The boom OF some man
for governor will echo through the air.
The candidates will pass around the
cigars, and now and again will be
heard the wheeze OF some empty beer
keg.
Take a long breath and wait, be
ready for the fray and enjoy your
share of the fun. It's coming pretty
soon. The Republican viii be there
with every page, and the great family
journal will give its battle cry and
deservedly enjoy fits name as the rag
Of freedom, where every candidate will
be roasted or praised as his merits
deserve.

HORSE SWINDLE GAME
Citizens Of Penbina County Attempt.
ing to Bring Gang of SwindIers
TO Book.

Pembina Pioneer Express: Charles
Atkinson returned from the twin cities
Monday. He in company with F. c.
Morris wero looking after MIR. Morris
interests in the matter OF the arrest
OF two of the gang of swindlers who
Wctimized Mr.. Morris in horse deal
some months ago. The two men we're
arrested at Neilsville, Wis, and have
been identified by Mr.. Morris and sew
eral other victims, who number among
prominent business men Of the north
west.
They nave been making a regular
business of selling horses, getting the
cash and then getting away with both
the horses and cash.
The principal features Of the conf
dence game were for the principal fell
low to advertise lot OF cheap horses.
He is not a dealer but is extensively
engaged in other business, with a fine
office. With Mr.. Morris the crook re-
ported himself as a dealer in patent
roofing He was selling the horses for
a deceased relatives widow, and
wanted to get rid of them as soon as
possible so as to attend to his own
business, hence sells for low figures
and wants cash.
When tn sale is made and the cash
turned over, confederate makes IT
his business to inform the purchaser
that the horses are not sound, ETC., that
he mas been taken in, or anything else
to make him think he. has been fooled.
II turns out that the horses have &C
nipulation the buyer is shown by the
confederate that the horses are not
sound. The buyer is naturally sick of
his bargain and goes back to the first
party to get back his money and re-
turn the horses. He is perfectly willing.
but Of course in the meantime has
used the cash. He has a note against
a big man up town for considerable
more than the sum. The man up town
on being interviewed, unfortunately is
out of cash also but will give his own
note for the amount, and also give
the first note to the buyer as collateral,
and will send the amount due within
few days to the buyer at his home
town. OF course lot of con talk is
made to let the buyer see what large
ing. The money is never sent and the
men and horses disappear.
AS we said, these men with other
confederates have been doing this con-
fidence business for a long time, and
all over the country, and have victi-
mized large number of people. One
Of their victims, however, who gave
up $500, got onto the trail and stayed
with 1t until two of them were caught.
Another was in custody but got away
before the regular officers arrived.
The two men in custody have served
time in Illinois penitentiary as shown
by photographs. They have plenty of
money and a mother and wife are as
sisting them, with the best attorneys
money can hire. They are fighting ex-
tradition, and every step possible. If
not taken to st. Paul they will be held
for Chicago authorities who also want
them. Among other possessions they
have a $4,000 automobr which Mr.
Morris attached for his claim.

TURNS ANDY down
uPHoLDs LOWER COURT IN RE.
FusINe TO TRANSFER M'eiL-
LIS CASE TO 5uRLEioH
COUNTY.

Bismarck, N. D.. Nov. 6.--In q deci-
sion rendered late yesterday after
noon and by a split vote, the supreme
court OF the state turned Atty Gen.
| Andy Miller down in his application
| for a writ OF certiorari in the famous
McGillis case
This case was brought against the
sheriff of Burleigh county, charging
him with renting a building to party
who maintained place where intoxi-
eating LIQUORS were sold and with be-
Ing cognizant OF the fact. The action
was started by Attorney General Mil
Ter several months ago, after warning
had been sent to the sherifrs office
that blindpigging must be stopped in
the state and naming McGillis as one
of the sheriffs who was derlict in his
Guides. The action was brought vast
June, and McGiIIis pleaded not guilty.
The attorney general asked Judge
winchester for a change of venue
against both judges and county stat
ing that in his opinion a fair and i'm
partial trial in Burieigh county was
ipmossible as the people were preju-
ciced against convictions of blindpig..
gers, and that the law had been no
toriously and openly violated by a
number of persons with the knowledge
and approval of the people and peace
officers.
Judge winchester denied the
change Of venue as to the county on
the ground that in his opinion q fair
trial could be had In Burleigh county,
but called in Judge Crawford of Dick
inson to try the case, whereupon the
attorney general applied to the gu
preme court for an order to sho +"
cause why a writ Of oertiorari should
not be issued to bring UP the court

view.
