FEARFUL CASE
OF PILES CURED
Suffered intensely, ResinoI Brought
Instant Relief.

The same soothing, healing, antisep-
tic medication that makes Resinol SO
remarkably successful for skin trou-
bles, affords Immediate relief In the
most distressing cases of itching, PAIN
full and bleeding piles, Miss Maize
Russell, 1854 N. Gay ST., Baltimore,
writes:
April "a, 1s13. had a most
severe case Of piles. I suffered day
and night. | could not sleep or even
lie down, and everyone told me the
only relief for me would be an opera
ton, and that / dreaded. I vas almost
wild with pain. / read Of Resinol Soap
and Resinol Ointment and sent for
samples. The first application gave
me instant relief. After using only
two Jars of Resinol Ointment and
Resinol Soap, / can truthfully say that
Resinol completely cured me.
IL hope all other poor sufferers Will
read of Resinol as I know it will help
them as 1t did me, for / can never say
enough in praise of 1T - for 1t does
more than Is even claimed for it,

FEES FOR OFFICIALS,

There are many officials who get in
addition to their salaries extra COM
pensation in fees or commissions.
Where the salary is stipulated and no
fees or commissions are provided nv
law. public officials are not justified in
accepting more than the salary desie-
mated in the law. However, there are
officials who supplement their salaries
with extra compensation for what they
ssrm extra service to the public. This
question has been brought up in Con-
necticut, where it has been the custom
for the state comptroller to collect for
himself fees on certain work over and
above his stipulated salary.
Comptroller Daniel p. Dunn Of that
state, believing the practice to be
wrong and without warrant in law,
asked the attorney general for an
opinion on the. matter, and in response
Judge Light. the official appealed to-.
gave an opinion which sustains the
suspicious of the comptroller. A sec
ton OF the law quoted by Judge Light,
sustaining his position that no official
whose salary or compensation is fixed
by law. Is as follows:
Every officer OF the state, or of any
district, city, county, town or borough,
whose salary or compensation is fixed
by law, who shall charge and receive.
or shall retain, receive or collect, to
his w use, any sum or sums in ex-
Cess OF the legal salary or compensa-
tion shall be fined not more than 81
or imprisoned not more than one war
1t seems that the comptrollers In
that state had been collecting for their
own 8 fees for the registration and
cancellation of bonds; that the custom
had the approval Of Years, but when
the question presented itself to Comp
troIIer Dunn he suspected the practice
To be irregular and lnWarranted, and
an Investigation has demonstrated
that he has been right in his view.

THE CROP OUTLOOK.

North Dakota people are inclined
to be conservative this year when
talking Of crop prospects. The lessons
of the past few years, when excel
lent crops slumped off before they
were harvested because Of adverse
weather conditions, lave had their eff
feet, and there is a disposition to quail
ify all predictions.
Nevertheless, for the time Of the
year, North Dakota has seldom nae
brighter prospects for a splendid har-
vest, Opening early, the spring has
been unusually favorable. The grain
gained a fine root during the cool
weather in May and the warm days of
the latter part of May caused the
growing things to shoot up with as
'tonishing rapidity.
There is not such a large acreage
as there was last year, but his may
prove to be a good thing for the state
as a whole. 1t will give a chance to
rest a lot of land, and more attention
will be paid to late crops.
! Reports from every part of the state
are encouraging and there seems to
be every reason for North Dakota peo-
jple to feel optimistic about the i'm
mediate future.

MAY STOP STOCK GAMBLING.

Though the New York Stock En-
change and the Cotton Exchange man.
aged to block hostile legislation at AL
bany, it seems that these large gam
bling Institutions have an excellent
chance Of coming to grief at the
hands of congress. 1t is reported that
the income tax law will be amended
in the senate so as to place a tax of
10 per cent on speculative sales of
stock and cotton. This added to the
brokers' fees would render speculation
improbable.
Without the speculation feature the
two big exchanges could not be con-
Quoted as at present. An idea of the
volume of this gambling can be gath
cred when it is stated that frequently
the entire capitol stock Of a great
corporation is bought" and ".sold' in
n day with scarcely any change In
the stock ownership on the books Of
the company. BY manipulating prices
1t is easily possible to run the value
OF a stock up down, depending how
many lambs are in reach. This rig
ging Of the market Is not frequently
disastrous to legitimate owners Of
stock and securities.
From the gambling in cotton the
producers are the direct and heaviest
sufferers. 1t is true that at
times the possibility of delivering
spot cotton on future contracts gives
some support, and that the mills are
able to protect themselves in a way bv
buying futures, yet the latter could
be provided for in other ways, and as
for the former. a financing system
could be devised to prevent the break
ing Of the market by a rush to sell the
staples as soon as possible after being
: picked. But where once there Is some
benefit to the farmer a thousand times
there is loss from the spectators med
, ding.
Except for a small portion of their
business, the exchanges are at best
mere parasites on the industry of the
country. And the nerviest part of
the whole business is that the New
York banks drain the interior banks
OF the peoples money to be used
Ito hammer down the peoples products.
The country at large would be greatly
benefited by the adjustment of the
gambling features of the EXCHANGES,

GRADUATION AT
DEAF SCHOOL

Devils Lake, N. D., Tune 4.-Of all
the commencement exercises held In
Devils Lake those of the school for
the deaf were probably the most inter
esting Of the graduating season, which
were held in the school auditorium last
Saturday evening.
The remarkable training which the
young people who are impaired show
ed in the rendition of a splendid pro-
gramme Is indeed a credit to the insti-
tuition and to Superintendent Blattner.
The school was also fortunate in
having former superintendent Bangs
present from Lin A,ln, Ncb., to make
the commencement address, which
was an eloquent plea for better things
for the school which he still cherishes
as the best institution on the map.

Rain HAS
Helped GRAIN

Minot, n. D., June 4.-The rain
which has fallen during the last few
days in this part of the state has been
of great benefit to the farmers, and it
Is believed that the chances Of good
crops have been greatly increased.
The moisture came at just the right
time to aid the growing grain, and
unless the weather during the balance
Of the summer is unusually bad, it is
thought that a banner crop will be
harvested during the fall.
1t is believed that the present sum
mer will be a warm one. 1t is gener-
ally thought that the cool weather last
summer was due to volcanic activity
in Alaska, and since there has been
none of this so far this year it is felt
that there should not be so much cool
weather.
The rainfall so far has been fully up
to the average, and it is hoped that
this will continue to be the case during
the remainder of the summer.

The law in that state forbids the pay
ment of fees or commissions to public
officials whose compensation or sala-
ries are fixed by law, at a stipulated
sum. ~.: '.......
The fee system which is very attract

seeking business for revenue only, re-
fuses to down, though in nearly all the
states strenuous efforts have been
made to uproot it. Fees and commits
sions as supplemental compensation
make public office much more attrac-

nothing but the bare fixed salary, but
such attractions have cost the people
millions, which ought never I'd have

The lesson taught in Connecticut is
one that should be learned In all the
states. Not only should the lesson be
learned, but avs consistent with the
lesson be passed eliminating the fee
system and placing all public officials
on fixed salaries.
