OAKES, NORTH DAKOTA, DECEMBER 2, 1898.
What Did Dr. Boyd Do?
Nick Cruden met with a peculiar
accident last Friday night. While
eating big oysters at the Methodist
social he swallowed a piece of an
oj'ster shell. After a time his stom
ach got sick of trying to digest the
oyster shell still, it didn't seem to
want to give it up, and Fick hardly
knew what to do. So he called in
Dr. Boyd and the next morning he
was all right.—LaMoure Chronicle.
What Makes a Good Town.
A first class town is one iu which
the farmer spends his money with
home merchants, the laborer spends
the money h« earns with local trades
men, where the good will of every
citizen is with home industries. This
is the true spirit of reciprocity be
tween business men, tradesmen and
laborers, and it makes business lively,
the town prosperous and above all a
pleasant place to live in.—Larimore
Pioneer,
Devils Lake Going Dry.
The Jamestown Alert says that it
is said Devils Lake has fallen nine
feet in eight years. The old dock at
Devils Lake shows where the boat
once landed and water is now three
miles away. The farmers iu the Red
River Valley who have had artesian
wells dug say the wells are losing
force and assign the cause of decrease
to the lake. The lake never began
falling until the artesian wells were
bored in the James and Red River
Valleys.
The Immoral Moral Issue.
In referring to the election pf Hon.
J. G. Halland the following opinion
was expressed by a gentleman, in
which we heartily concur: "In the
name of morality it is my humble
opinion that they (the W. C. T. U.)
have done more to demoralize this
state than they can make good in
twenty years of positive work. They
have thrust a foul discussion into al
most every home in he state of North
Dakota they have not hesitated to
put foul, suggestive literature in the
hands of Sunday school and commou
school pupils. The thoughtlessness
of the methods adopted, to say the
least, is deplorable."—Lakota Herald.
Minnesota rionkey Work.
There is a well founded suspicion
that North Dakota wheat does not
meet with fair play at Duluth and
Minneapolis under the present meth
ods tmployed in inspecting, grading,
storing or shipping. It is believed,
as has been frequently stated, that
our wheat is mixed with the inferior
proiuet of southern Minnesota, South
Dakota and Iowa by the speculators
at theee points and sold to eastern
consumers after having been thus
reduced in grade. A plan by which
our wheat can be offered for sale on
all markets of the world and sold on
it8 merits, without mixing or adulter
ation is what should be evolved and
adopted."—Milton Globe.

Where "Ben Hur" Was Written.
An interesting page of pictures in
the Christmas Ladies' Home Journal
shows the author of "Ben Hur" at
home. Several glimpses of the inter
ior of (general Wallace's house are
given, besides views of his studio and
lawn. A feature of interest in the
latter is the picture of the tree under place the Catholic church
which, the author says, "I wrote all
but the last book of 'Ben Hur.' A
photograph also shows General Wall
ace at work under the spreading
branches of the "Ben Hur" tree, en
gaged in some literary work that
may soon be given to the public.
Cevera Is a Gentlemaa.
Admiral Cervera has become a can
didate for a seat in the Spanish sen
ate and has issued an addrese to the
people whom he seeks to represent
declaring that Spain's best interests
demand a prompt resumption of
friendly relations with America and
the adoption of some of America's
methods in trade and in the adminis
tration of government. In this ad
dress he tells his people that the
United States has no feeling of ani
mosity towards Spain, and he is just
at home as he was iu this
in expressing his apprecia
tion of the kiadly treatment which he
received while he was a prisoner of
war on this side of the Atlantic.—
Buttineau Couraut.
Endorsed in the Northwest.
The vote of the people of the north
west was in the nature of an indorse
ment of the administration of Presi
dent McKinley, who was really on
trial. The result showed that the
brilliant conduct of the war and the
improved business conditions of the
country are not overlooked by the
people. The world at large now
knows that the countrjr sustains the
president, and approves his conduct
of the war with Spain. A reversal of
the popular verdict would
have
been
something humiliating under the cir
cumstances. The result is gratifying.
Business ought to gain confidence
now that there is to be no interference
with the economic policies of the
country in the near future, and plans
may be made accordingly.—Edgeley
Mail.
Just The Kind of Stuff Needed.
Later returns from North Dakota
give the Republicans still greater ma
jorities for their state ticket aud sho*v
that the legislature is republican be
yond a doubt. The victory for re
publicanism will be complete when
this legislature chooses Hon. T. F.
Marshall for United States senator.
He is a republican in every fiber of
his nature and if he is elected will
support republican policies and
have their welfare in view rather thap
personal aggrandizment. He would
make a record in the senate that
would attract luster to his state and

Good Advice for Dickey.
The change in the rote in this
county from a 200 fusion majority in
1896 to 500 republican majority is not
all a change to republicanism. We
claim about half of it as straight
change and the other half from mea
who are
still independents and demo
crats but who are not fusionists, and
this is true of other counties as well
as Pembina.
Fusiou has disgusted many into
becoming permanently republican
but it will depend very much ou the
future of both parties as to where the
remainder of independent votere will
affiliate.
Here comes food for thought for
the members of the republican party.
Victory and a majority are invariably
demoralizing. With a sure majority,
factious arise within the party, or less
attention is paid to the character of
cauiidates. Might is right is often
the motto and as we said, the results
are demoralizing. On the contrary a
minority party can only hope 10 win
by staudiug together and putting up
good candidates. From a party
numbering but barely one-third of
the total vote iu 1890 we have grown
to a majority party by good manage
mont and hard fighting on our part
and partly by the mistakes and dis
organization of our opponents. The
tables are reversed aud now comes
the question whether as victors we
can keep our organization in position
to remain victorious.—Pembina Ex
press.
A Business Parable.
Once a farmer had 1,800 bushels
of wheat, which he sold not, to a
single grain merchant, but to 1,800
different dealers a bushel each. A
few of them paid him in cash, but
far the greater number said it was
not convenient theu they would pay
later. A few months passed, and
the man's bank account ran low.
"How is this?" he said- "My 1,800
bushels of grain should have kept
me in affluence until another crop is
raised, but I have parted with the
grain aud have instead only a vast
number of accounts, so small and
scattered that I cannot get around
and collect fast enough to pay ex
penses."
