I have from 6,000 to 10,000 acres at from $6.50 to $18.00 per acre. It must be sold inside of from thirty to sixty days. Iowa has no better land. 1 lived in that state forty years. 1 lived at Corydon, Wayne county, thirty years. I served in the 14th Iowa Infantry three years, one month and five days, and was counted a good soldier. I have been here twenty three years. I picked out this land while wolf-hunting. I have killed more than seventeen hundred wolves. GET A HOME OF YOUR OWN How CM I Do TteU? Simply by calling on the undersigned or by writing (inclosing stamp). What I don't know about land can't be told by the other fellow. I can save you from one to two dollars per acre. I have lived on the Missouri Slope since its earliest settlement, and am thor oughly familiar with every section of it. If you want the best then is in a Farm, Rssch or Homestead. call on or write to the undersigned. ••HOME! SWEET HOME! THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME." HOMESTEADERS LOCATED 1 will locate settlers on homesteads as long as the homesteads last. 1 know of several homesteads, but they are fit only for grazing pur poses. Call on Ben, himself. Take no substitute. Offii-e in Hotel, Hazelton, North Dakota. Some Land Men Are Wolves But I am not. I do just what I say. Neither one of the animals in the picture is intended to represent yourllncle Ben. They are photo-engravings of a certain class of land dealers who show you a good piece of land that isn't for sale and then sell you a poorer tract you never saw. Some say the pictures represent Emmons County politicians pulling fur tbe offices. But that isn't so. These wolves were caught by me thirteen years ago on the wolves' play-ground at Coal Butte, in the western part of Emmons County. The hooks shown in the picture were baited with fresh gophers. References As To Fair Dealing To show that I'm all right refer to the following-named old-timers, who know me well. Most of 'em are running for office this year, and will be pleased to say a good word for an elderly party who votes early and often. But, any way, they will tell you that they have known me more than twenty years that I am honest and a good wolf-hunter that I am recognized as one of the enterprising citizens of this county that I have done my full share for the advancement of the county, and that for integ rity and fair dealing I stand among the foremost of the county. These are the people that I refer to: William L. Yeater, hotel man Darwin R. Streeter, Editor of the Emmons County Record Henry A. Armstrong, attorney Gustave A. Herolz, County Treasurer James C. Pitts, County Auditor Alexander Macdonald, state senator and bank president. BEN CORBIN, IIA/.KI/ION. N. D. The Drummer'* Prayer. Our landlord who is at the head of affairs We praise aloud thy name Let my meals come, Let them be well done. But not as it was in the neighbor ing town. Give us this day some better hash, And forgive us as we do the inde pendent and kicking merchant. Lead us not into uncleati and buggy beds, And deliver us from dirty towels, roach legs and wings in our biscuits, And thine shall be our house and two dollars a day your reward for ever and ever.—[Ex. Just Like Baldy Sour. An exchange says that Corporal Tanner, national commander of the G. A. It., was recently talking in Washington about a certain politician and said: "He thinks all men are grafters, because he is one himself. So does the coward think all men share his cowardice. "There Is a story about a young re cruit who, in ills ttrst engagement, lost heart. The ping-g-g of the bullets terrilied him. Spying a hole in the ground, he broke from the ranks, rushed to it, and threw himself with in, cowering against the earth. "An officer, disgusted, ran to the terrified recruit, clapped him on the shoulder, and said 'Kejoin your company at mice, sir.' "The lad looked up at the officer and answered: Xo, you don't. You want this hole for yourself.'" An Open Letter to Spalding. Cleveland. N. D., Feb. 28, iitOtt.—To Hon. B. F. Spalding, leader of "The Republican Good Government League," Fargo N. I).: I»ear Sir—I have just received the unclosed circu lar X". 5130 fro in your league, and in reply beg to say that 1 am heartily in accord with any movement that will better the conditions of our state and country. I am a Roosevelt re publican and, I hope, a Roosevelt American. I do not take much of an interest in politics and am not a seeker after office, but I do want things right. I believe in Roosevelt reform, but I be lieve in making that reform within the grand old republican party, when reform is needed, not out of it, and when 1 received the enclosed circular I began to look back over the history of the G. O. P., and when I tind back nf your movement such men as Mur phy of Minot, Lauder of Wahpeton, White of Valley City, Winship of Grand Forks, Johnson of Petersburg, Glaspell of Jamestown and pretending Jeiders of the Scandinavian league S'eater's over the state, I am forcibly reminded that the leaders of your movement are not without fault. For did not several of your leaders run on the democratic ticket as soon as the ic publicans refused to feed t.hein with more nominations, and were they not tlrst whipped in the republican and then In thedemocracic ranks? A re they not of the "anything for an office'1 class? And have they not time and again tried to break into the state or national capitol buildings? Take your own case. Were you not turned down by the party at Grand Forks and your place tilled by another? Then, loo, 1 am reminded that all of your leaders have been members of the regular republican party of Hie state when its management has not been different or one whit worse than it is now and seemed glad to seek and sometimes hold office thereunder. If there is to liea reform movement, let us make it in the party—not out side. Even under your "sys tem" I don't see how your friends in Stutsman county could win, any how, as they have been the "old gang" for a quarter of a century, and of late years have been turned down by a popular vote from 2* to 4 to 1 in the choice of delegates. Of course I'm no politician, but I like to keep posted on the current political events, and, if am not right in my surmises and conclusions, let me know. 1 want to do that which is right, but am unable to be lieve in these (juick reformers who are disgruntled office-seekers or poli ticians. It seems to me that the gov ernment of the slate is first-class, and our representatives in congress have gained in importance and legislative ability until they stand in the front ranks of our national government for integrity and sagacity, with no one as good trying to calumniate them. 1 am so well satisfied with the present government in slate and national affairs that 1 must refuse to join your new organization.
