tor of Dawson Church.

A congregation that filled almost to
capacity the large auditorium Of the
Methodist church Sunday morning
gave the closest attention to strong
and inspiring message by Rev. T. H.
Thomson, which was based on the
scripture promises of God to Abraham
in the 18th chapter of Genesis, the
speaker placing special emphasis on
the third verse, Il will bless them that
bless thee and curse him that curseth
thee, and in thee shall all the families
of the earth be blessed" Another
large congregation greeted the pastor
at the evening hour, the sermon which
carried such earnest appeal and such
an optimistic note making a deep i'm
preston. The theme was The hope
of the gospel" The text used was the
twenty-third verse of the first chap
ter OF COLLISIONS.
Mr.. Thomson and family will leave
Thursday for their new home in Bruins
wick, much to the regret of every one
here.

DR.. LeGear's Stock Powders give
to milk cows just what is needed to
keep the digestive organs in proper
condition, so that they get the most
possible good from their feed. Give
equally wonderful results when used
for horses, hogs, and sheep, because
they are tonic, appetizer and worm
expeller.

many TOURISTS ARE
PASSING THROUGH
ONE FAMILY HAS FIRST IN
PRODUCTION TO DELIGHTS
OF SUGAR CANE.

During the past few weeks hundreds
of northerners have been passing
through Dawson over the Florida
Short Route highway en- route to
points in Florida to spend the winter
months. Some are equipped with the
convenences of life and travel in
the best makes of cars, while most OF
them are battling along i'll ''iliVvers. "
Some have Travelled from the shores
of Lake Michigan, others from points
in Illinois, Indiana, New Jersey and
New Hampshire. AS a general thing
they stop just long enough 10 buy a
supply of gas, and occasionally few
crackers and some cheese.
The Richland News says that one
family passing through there with sew
eraI small children were given some
sugar cane by one of the Richland
ladies, and so far as the kids and par
ents were concerned it might have
been just as well that many sticks, as
none of them knew the pleasures OF
chewing the cane until demonstra-
ton had been made to them, after
which the little fellows showed quite
a bit of keen interest in the southern
product and wanted more OF it.
The tourists are we'll pleased with
the roads over the Florida Short Route
and the hospitality of the people along
the way

CONGRESSMAN AGAIN
KEEN TO RAISE PAY
$4,000 TO S12,500 is FIGURE Be
ING AGITATED. CABINET,
TOO. WANT INCREASE.

WASHINGTON, D. CA move
ment is on foot to increase the con
gressional salary, now $1,000, to $lO,-
900 or $12,500 per annum. The latter
figure naturally is the most attractive.
When the matter was under discus
sion in the cloak room last session, one
member said the people might object
to such big jump. He was told they
would not "cuss" any more for that
sum than for $4,000. Some members
would like an increase to $4,000.
For the 55l members of the house
and senate combined an increase oil
$4,000 in salary would reach the total
in one year of S2,655,000 The total an
nual salary would be approximately
81. 900, 000-or S1,000000 more than the
appropriations for enforcement OF pro
hibition.
Members have complained invaria-
bly, about the high cost of living i'll
Washington and the failure. of the
present salary to keep pace. The du-
ties of members have been increasing
constantly, and they think woman suf-
frage will make their work harder. The
present salary was fixed about twenty
years ago.
Cabinet members, too, have found it
difficult to get along on $4,000 year
Several employees in the government
some of them experts
have found their salaries too small.
There is at least one member who
does not want an increase in his salary
He is Representative Thomas L. Blan-
ton, democrat, of Texas. He said to-
day he would fight the movement.

LIVE BEEF Is CHEAP

ped from Wolf Point last week ac-
ompanied by N. P. Ogden, Jim Perry

inal intention to ship the cattle to
Chicago, but while stopping to feed
in st. Paul, the shippers were advised
not to come to Chicago because mar
ket conditions were worse than in
So. St. Paul. Mr. Ogden arrived
home today and tells of the demoral-
lied conditions of the live stock mar
ket. Thin COWS, he says sold as low
as two cents per pound. Fat cows
brought 5 or 512 and the best fat
steers brought 81a. Right across the
street at the Hook-um Cow Hotel,
MIR. Ogden said that double porter
house steak cost $1.75. Veal and
baby beef brings better prices also
than older animals. Among the car
shipped by Mr.. Ogden was a Z
months old calf, its mother and its
grandmother. The calf brought more
money than either of the cows. Some
sheep that were being held at the
yards were held to be practically
value, the best offer receiv-
ed being 1c per pound.
