of the week.
M. G. Kobe of Leigh was in town
Monday. He came here to get his
pair of mares that strayed away last
week and were taken up at the o. T.
livery barn.
John o. johnson of Rainy Butte was
%transacting business in town Tuesday.
He will have go acres in crop in a few
days. which is a pretty good showing for
the second year at homesteading. MIR.
johnson is laboring under difficulties
on account of the loss of his wife.
Mrs. johnson died last fall, leaving
five small children. the oldest being
thirteen years old and the youngest. a
baby t hree weeks old. The baby is
being cared for by relatives in Mime
sofa but the other chilrden live with the
father on the homestead.
N. N. Fuller of Larlmore. N. D.,
passed through town Tuesday en- route
to Reeder from Dickinson in an automo-
bile. Mr.. Fuller only stopped in town
for a. few minutes but he kept his eyes
wide open and saw lots of things that
looked coed to him. This was his first
trip through this part of the country.
The main object of the visit was to look
at land, and the chances are that he
will own some HettinRer county dirt
before many moons. Mr.. Fuller has
been a grain buyer at Larimore for Is
years and is rated as one of the best
business men in Grand Forks county.

SAVES AN IOWA MANS LIFE.

The very grave seemed to yawn be-
fore Robert Madsen of West Burlington,
Iowa, when, after seven weeks in the
hospital, four of the best physicians
gave him up. Then was shown tbs
marvellous curative power of Electric
Bitters. For, after eight months of
frightful suffering from liver trouble and
yellow jaundice, getting no help from
other remedies or doctors, five bottles of
this matchless medicine completely
cured him. It's positively guaranteed
for Stomach, Liver or Kidney troubles
and never disappoints. Only soc at F.

Attorney Thomas r., Mockler of Bis
marck was in the city the past week on
some legal matters and took. the
occasion to %acquaint himself with a
large number of our citizens. he being
a republican candidate for congress.
He is making his canvas alone and
without the especial aid of the stalwart
or progressive wing of the party, and. is
caring for his own private law practice
as he goes along. It will be remem-
bered that the western part of North
Dakota has never had representation
in Congress and it seems but fair that
one of the four members at the seat of
national government should be selected
from the Slope country. Mr.. Mockler
has resided at Bismarck for eight years !:
has served in the state legislature and
is a man recognized as an able at
torney.
One of the sensible things which
Attorney Mockler advocates is an appro-
priation by congress for the purpose of
perfecting the briquetting experiments
that are now so deeply interesting the
people of the state. He advocates that
this should be done before all of the
valuable coal lands have passed into
the hands of syndicates. He also be
lieves that congress should make the
Missouri river navigable 70 as to give
cheap water transportation for our coal
and grain.

CAN NOW COME and
60 AS THEY PLEASE
Full Privileges Given to the
Senior Class.
Another Forward Step at the AgriCul-
turaI College That Puts 1t Abreast
Of OtOeF High Grade Schools
Development Of SeIf-ReSpeCt.

In accordance with the custom in
the best managed colleges of the lanl,
Supt Ccllum, of the Third District
Agricultural College, this week insti-
tuted the system of full privileges for
the senior class of that institution.
Under this system the senior class is
not hampered in the actions of its
members after class room hours
The ten boys and the three girls
comprising this class are now priv
ileged to come into the city and other
wise utilize their spare time as they
may see fit They are entirely On
their good behavior, with all restrict
ions removed.
This plan, expressive of entire con-
fidence in the seniors, has been
found to work very effectively in
other colleges and there is no doubt
that the results will be similar in the
Third District Agricultural College.
Its effect is to inspire the older
personal responsibility, to bring home
to them the fact that they are now
young men and young women, in
whom confidence can be properly
placed and that the good name of TIE
college rests in their hands.
Supt Collum in this step as in oth ar
progressive methods adopted by him
is simply pursuing tie policy he otig
iually adopted of putting the Third
Instrict College to the front and keep
ing it there.
1t is recognized throughout the state
that the Third District school leads
all the rest in initiative, in the man,
agement of it's affairs, and in the geu-
eral results that are being accom-
plished. This is, in a large measure
due to the efficiency of the superin-
tendent and the able corps of teach
ers gathered together under his ad-
ministration.

No ANALYSIS HAS
BEEN RECEIVED.
State Chemist Seems to Over
look AmGFiCuS.
Keep on Sending Samples Of Water
But No Reply Ever COmeS.--In the
Meantime City Keeps DiStreSSlRgIy
Healthy, the Doctors Say.

What is the matter with the sta .e
chemist and the water supply Of
Americus? That is the question that
is ruffling the usually placid soul Of
City Engineer Ansley. Several times
samples of the artesian we'll wator
have been forwarded to Atlanta for
analysis, for statement as to what
the ingredients are that are muddying
its former purity ana rendering it mn
palatable to the sensitive throats OF
some citizens.
But mary" a reply has come back
from the capitol
In the meantime the water seems
to be curing itself to some extent
The muddiness has largely disappear
ed, and inasmuch as there has been
no illness in the slightest degree
traceable to the water the conclu-
sion las been reached that the muddy
sediment that comes up from the bow
els OF the earth, somewhere Betwea an
here and the Flowery Kingdom, is not
at all inimical to the public health.
Indeed, it may be distinctly nutli-
tious, since the New Jersey doctor
has discovered that sand taken in reg
ular doses will cure indigestion and
other ailments of the interior de
partment.
But that doesn't explain why the
state chemist has so woefully ignored
the desire of Americus to have the
water anaiyzed and the nature of the
muddiness set forth in precise scien-
tific phrases that no one would real y
understand. The human mind just re-
fuses to be kept in a state of sus-
pense like this and another barrel or
two of the liquid will doubtless soon
be shipped to the state capitol.
