Mandan.-Silver ore has been
found near Mandan. A blacksmith
who is working at the Ryan camp

Piles OF the ore are on display at the

says that he used TO be member OF

one who first discovered the vein. AT
the Custer battle this man lost his

his secret was the blacksmith who
found the ore this week.

IFFERENT In every way Il
the status Of the Ameri-

Of the European million
aire; and this difference
has impressed me perhaps
more than any other one thing during
my ten weeks stay in America"
Guglielmo Ferrero was the speaker.
Few foreigners who ever visited
America have had such opportunities
to Judge Of the conditions OF million
airedom here and abroad as he has
Ind. He has talked in America with
such representative members OF their
class a. ]. Pierpont Morgan. Andrew
Carnegie and Jacob H. Schiff. and In
Europe with such men as the Barons
Rothschild of England and France.
With them he has discussed the pow
ers that millions give to man. the
dangers to which his millions expose
him, the duties and the responsible
ties which millions impose upon their
possessors. Upon this subject he has
also obtained the views of the pro-
fessors Of almost all the principal uni
versities In America and in Europe, OF
the leading journalists, statesmen, au-
thors, philosophers and plain. unmil.
lioned business men. Here he has
stretched his long legs under the ma.
hogany of millionaires' dinner tables;
he has lectNred In universities that
owe their existence to millionaires: he
has studied the comments Of the press
upon the deeds and the words OF mil
lionaires. and he has brought to bear
upon the subject one Of the most
keenly analytical minds Of modern
days. Thus he has come to see how
and why the American differs from
the European millionaire.
