WILL STICK TO FARMING.
Bncee'MM of Some of Hie \orlli Da
kota Settlers.
General Passenger Agent F. 1. Whit
ney, nf the Greal Northern, has the
following to say regarding" the settling
up of some of the country on and near
his railroad:
••| have been reading and find much
of interest in letters received from
settlers sent to North Dakota during
i\i< last two or three years. Here are
letters from men who took up home
fcteado three years ago, who raised* from
52,000 '" $3,000 worth of grain this year,
besides a season's supply of garden
truck. Some of them raised more grain
this v ar than in all their lives on rent
id farms back East.
"During the year ending Nov. 1, tho
Devil's Lake land office had a record of
Dyer 2,000 homestead entries, which
leads by far any of the hundred or more
government land offices in the United
Staves. Indeed for two years that
office has been leading in the number of
entries, a fact due to the immigration
\v<-rk of this company. Our excursion
train of 1.700 new settlers last April was
the largest ever moved by a railroad in
Am rica, but that was true of the train
of 1,000 persons the year before. Next
spring we expect to do as well as wo
did this, and perhaps a little better.

er on a farm, meanwhile taking a
hum. stead, lie put his wages into a

some breaking on his land tho first

crop of wheat, oats, potatoes and flax,

for his sod house, his horses being well
f cared for in a sod barn. This year he
had over 1,000 bushels of grain, and I
venture there was no happier boy in
North Dakota. Next year he will have
a frame house and a wife, and let us
: hope his happiness and prosperity may
go hand in hand and increase each suc
ceeding year. Two years more and the
government will give him a title to 160
acres of soil more productive than any
$100 an acre land in the East. At
twenty-five years of age he will be com
fcrtably fixed. The city has its ad
vantages, but it has more pitfalls, and
when I look over these letters, and
there are hundreds of them, I cannot
help but compare the difference be
tween the success attending our set
tlers, many of whom were Eastern
renters possessing little except teams,
machinery and household goods, with
the struggles of the hosts of hand-to
mouth people in the cities, not to speak
</f the scores and hundreds of unem
ployed who live by charity and beg
gary.
".Men who went to North Dakota
during the last few years with a few
hundred dollars, have doubled their
savings. Here is a letter from an eld
erly man who is making his second
start. He worked for many years on
an Indiana farm bought at high prices,
but never got enough ahead to pay out.
For two years he and his good old wife
lived in a sod house, but they were
happy, because what little they had
v.us their own. He was able this year
to pay for n neat frame house from
j the season's crops. He firmly adheres
to bis new rule not to buy anything un
less the wherewithal] is in sight to pay
for it. He says that no more notices
j come to him through the postoffice that
his interest or his note is due. In an
! other year he will get title from the
government for his homestead, which
in its improved condition will be worth
| al least $2,000. This earned and a living
1 in live years with little to begin with
except a it am and wagon. It requires
hard work and close economy to build
up a home on the bare prairies with
small means to start with, but there
is something in prospect as compared
With the man who is suffering relent
less privation and wretchedness in the
tenements of the great cities'."
THREE-) EAR EXTENSION.
It Will Probably Xt- Gran.te.fi. by (li«-
Commerce Commission.
WASHINGTON^ Dec. 3.— The hear
ing giv.en by the interstate commerce
commission on the question of extend
ing the time within which the railroads
of the country may comply with the
provisions of the car coupler and train
brake act was concluded at noon. The
commission intends to take some sup
pi, mental testimony under oath before
coming to a decision. There seems to
be no doubt whatever that an exten
sion will be granted and that the ex
tension will be general in its character,
the hearing having demonstrated that ]
any discrimination would fall as heav- j
lly on roads which have complied with j
the law as on Whose which have thus i
far disregarded it* The general im- ]
pression among both the railroad men I
and the labor leaders who were in at- j
j tendance on the hearing Is that the ex- j
tension granted by the commission
will be a complete compromise. The
railroad representatives asked for five
j years, with the condition that one-fifth j
of the unequipped rolling stock of each i
company should be equipped each year i
and lite representatives of the railroad
organizations protested against, an ex
tension in excess of one near. Three
years is generally believed to be the i
maximum extension which the com- j
mission will grant. The commission is |
evidently in great doubt as to its abil- I
ity To impose conditions on an exten- j
sion and it may be that they will grant I
but a year's extension at a time with j
the understanding that against those i
reads who do not complete the yearly
portion of their equipment during that
period the law shall become operative.
HOLIDAY RATES.

CHICAGO, Dec. 3.— The. Western j
roads have agreed upon rates for the |
holidays. They will be one and one- i
third fare where the rate is three cents
per mile, and where it is over three ■
cents per mile the rates will be one
and one-fifth. The tickets will have a
final return limit of Jan. 4. Estimated j
gross earnings of the Rock Island for j
November wore $1,644,731. an increase
over the estimated earnings: of the
same month last year of J443-.095; Calls
have been issued for meetings of the
Central passenger committee on Tues
day, Wednesday and Thursday of next
week. On the first of those days the
interchangeable mileage ticket will be |
brought up, the chief matter to be con- j
sidered being the points between which j
the tickets may be issued. Wednes- j
day the regular monthly meeting of
the committee will be held and on
Thursday the mileage board will con
sider a number of questions bearing
upon the success of the interchange
able ticket.

ADVERTISING AGENTS' ANNUAL
Railroad Representatives to* Mnke
( l> Their List.
The regular yearly meetings of the
advertising agents of the Twin City
railroad lines has been called at the
Ryan this morning at 10 o'clock, by
Secretary A. B. Cutts, of the Minne
apolis & St. Louis road. Among the
more important matters taken up for
consideration will be the subject of
reaching an agreement as to the list
of mediums through which the railroad
companies wish to reach their patrons
the coming year. The agreement is
if on-clad, and securing space from
roads for publications not on the "list"
is as difficult as pulling teeth. Other
matters of interest will be taken up
and considered at this meeting.
CHICAGO-ST. PAUL RATES.
Meeting Next Tuesday to Complete
(lie Settlement.
CHICAGO, Dec. 3.— A meeting of the
Western roads has been called for next
Tuesday for the purpose of completing
the settlement of the Chicago-St. Paul
rates accomplished at the meeting of
this week. It was the Intention of the j

executive officers of the roads to meet
but they have changed their minds and
have instructed the general passenger
agents to hold another meeting and to
devise some method by which the rates,
which will be restored on the 12th, can
be maintained after they have been
restored. This will be found a much
more difficult task than the restora
tion. It is thought by many of the
general passenger agents that the situ
ation will never become settled until
some basis for the division of the traf
fic has been agreed upon. Unless this
is done it is not thought that the pres
ent agreement will hold any better
than the numerous agreements that
have preceded it.
SEXT VIA JAMESTOWN".
Why Fewer Curloadtt of Cattle Were
Received This Season.
Capt. Wheeler, commercial agent of
the. Omaha, at Helena, is in St. Paul.
In speaking of the stock movement
from the Montana plains to the market
at Chicago, the captain says that al
though not as many head of cattle
were carried between the two places,
the "Western ranchmen made as much
money as last year, owing to the im
proved prices which held during the
shipping season. There were shipped
by the Omaha company, received from
the Northern Pacific and Great North
ern in about equal shares, some 7,600
cars of cattle, not Including a large
number of sheep. The slight decrease
in the number of cars shipped as
against the movement last year, Capt.
Wheeler explains, is due to the fact
that many carloads of feeders were
sent via Jamestown to Sioux City and
Omaha and did not as a result pass
through here to market. Capt. Wheel
er starts West tomorrow night.
DECISION IS NOT FINAL.
Chtcagro Great Western Grons Eam
in!i Tax Case.
A closer Reading of the opinion of the
railroad and warehouse commissioner
in the Chicago Great Western gross
earnings tax case, shows that the deci
sion of the commission is not final. In
the opinion, Mr. Kingsley writes:
The present company objects to an increase
in the rate of taxation to 3 per cent, and
bases its objection upon the grounds that
the charter provisions above referred to con
stitute a contract between the .Minnesota
Northwestern Railway company and its suc
cessors on the one part and the terrltroy
and state of Minnesota on the other part,
which contract, it is claimed, is equally bind
ing on both parties, and which neither can
change or modify without the consent of the
other, and that such contract has not, in fact,
i been changed ot modified by existing legisla-
I tion.
To the first of these propositions we can
not yield our assent. It is true that there
have been cases determined In the federal
courts and in the courts of last resort in
some of the stales which seem to support the
contention of tli.- company, but the proi>osi
tion that the legislature can enter into a
contract with an individual or a corporation
by which the state is obliged forever to
commute upon a fixed basis its right of taxa
tion without reference to the needs aud ne
cessities (if the government or to quality or
uniformity of taxation, is one which the
courts of this state must affirm before we,
as public officers, possessing only quasi ju
dicial functions, can assent to it.
There have been some cases in the su
preme court of this state which are along that
line, but in the comparatively recent case of
State vs. Luther. 56 Minn., 156, on an appli
cation for a reargument, the court distinctly
stated that the question is not before the
court in that case, and that it did not intend
to express or intimate any opinion upon the
question of whether an act providing for a
commuted system of taxation of railroad
property constitutes a contract between the
state and a railroad company which cannot
bo repealed or amended.
In our view this leaves the question open
in this stae, and if the objection is based
upon that proposition alone, we would deem
it our duty to certify a rate of 3 per cent
instead of a rate of 2 per cent in order that
Mic question might be directly and authorita
tively determined if the company should re
fuse to pay the increased rate.
But the legislation to which wo have re
ferrr-d, we are clearly of the opinion, has not
had the effect to amend or modify the act
of ISot;, and until that act is amended or
modified the company cannot be required to
pay a higher rate than 2 per cent as a gross
earnings tax.
The attention of the next legislature should
bo called to this question in order, if so ad
\ jsiml. that it may pass an act which, when
approved by the people, as provided in the
constitution, will require this railroad com
pany to pay a tax upon its gross earnings
of H per cent, which is the rate paid by all
the other railroads in this state, and which
presumably would be its fair share of public
burden.
Until such a law is passed and becomes
operative the rate of taxation on the gross
earnings of the Chicago Great Western Rail
way company will have to be certified at 2
per cent.

A RELIC OF THE PAST.
SURGICAL OPERATION FOB THE
CURE OP PILES AND RECTAL
DISEASES M> LONGER
NECESSARY.
.V Medical Discovery Wliicli Will
Change th<- Treatment of All
Such Diseases.
Tt has long 1 been thought not only
by some physicians but by people in
general that the common, painful and
exceedingly annoying trouble, piles,
was practically incurable by any oth
er means than a surgical operation
and this belief has been the cause of
years of needless suffering, because
of the natural dread of surgical opera
tions.
There are many salves, ointments
and similar remedies on the market
which afford some relief in cases of j
piles, put the Pyramid Pile Cure is j
the only preparation so far intro
duced that can be reliably depended
upon to cure to stay cured, every
form of itching, bleeding or protrud
ing piles.
Mrs. M. C. Hinkley, of 601 Missis
sippit St.. Indianapolis, was told by
her physicians that nothing but a
surgical operation costing- between
seven and eight hundred dollars, could
cure her, as she had suffered for 15
years; yet even in such a case as
hers the Pyramid Pile Cure accom
plished a complete cure. She says:
"I knew an operation would be death
to me and tried the Pyramid with very
little hope and it is not to be won
dered at that I am so enthusiastic in
its praise."
Mr. D. E. Reed, of South Lyons,
i Mich., says: I would not take $500 and
be placed back where I was before I
used the Pyramid Pile Cure, I suffered
for years and it is now eighteen
months since I used it and not the
slightest trace of the trouble has re
turned.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by
nearly all druggists at 50 cents and $1
per package, and, as It contains no
opium, concaine or other poisonous
drug, can be used with perfect safety.
No one need suffer from piles in any
! form who will give this excellent rem
edy a trial. Send for book on cause
and cure of piles, sent free by ad

THE WAY TO WIN A WOMAN
A man must fight to win a woman.
It is not always a duel with rapiers
that he must engage in. Sometimes it
Is a struggle which on the surface ap
pears to be far more peaceful than any
battle at arms. It isn't the soldier only
who must be brave: Men need courage
to succeed anywhere in life. A me
chanic or a farmer needs "grit" in his
soul as well as on his hands. In what
ever line of work a man is called upon
to make his way in the world he must
show pluck and steady, persevering de
termination If he expects to win and
hold a worthy woman's affection.
A woman judges a man from appear
ances. If he is energetic and forcible
she doesn't always stop to reason why.
She looks like the Spanish senorita at
her window and applauds the man who
fights bravely. He may win, he may
lose; but he must never flag; he must
fight.
A man doesn't always do himself
justice. He may make a bad showing
when he reallj# isn't to blame. It is
common to say of a man who is timid
and incapable that he is "white liver
ed." Sometimes this is literally true,
3 r et not any reproach to a man either.
Many a man with a brave willing heart
for his work acts at times like a lazy
"quitter," just because his liver is out
of order. It is the commonest kind of
a disease. The liver is the great Com
missioner of Street Cleaning for the
human system. When the liver is in
capable of doing its work all the vile
poisons which ought to be filtered out
of the body find their way into the
blood and corrupt it in every vein.
A man doesn't know what is the mat
ter with him; he feels all the strength
and energy oozing out of him; he can't
work; he can't eat; he can't sleep; he
yg^iS^vy, \ i V ' \I a _*f+.
can't even think clearly. He loses
heart and courage and .flesh; pretty
soon he feels it in his lungs. The doc
tors call It consumption and prescribe
lung specifics. But what the man needs
is a medicine to go deep down into the
foundations of the trouble; clear the
poison out of his blood; wake up his
liver, purify, revitalize and build ■ up
his system from the foundation-stone.
He needs Dr. Pierces Golden Medical
Discovery which has cured innumerable
cases of obstinate liver complaint
which the ddctors diagnosed as hope
less connsumption.
The work of this masterful "Discov
ery" begins at the very corner-stone of
life in the stomach and nutritive or
ganism. It gives appetite, nourish
ment, rich blood, healthy solid flesh.
A cough is only a symptom; there are
other things that make the cough;
they must be got rid of first, the cough
may be the last thing to go away. Dr.
Pierces marvelous "Discovery" isn't
a lung specific; but It does more than
any such specific can ever do. It
sweeps out of the blood all the foul
disease-germs that lodge in the lungs
and originate consumption; it heals
and builds up the delicate tissues and
imbues the entire . system With
strength and active energy.
When Dr. Pierce says a case is cur
able, he says it in the knowledge that
those words have been New Life to a
host, doomed by fear and friends and
ignorance and physicians to a consump
tive's grave.
Does Dr. Pierce claim to cure con
sumption?
lhat question isn't worth arguing.
Look at the record. Take a case in
point. Here is a man (or woman)
with a hacking cough, a hectic flush,
night-sweats, great emaciation or
wasting of flesh, spitting of blood,
shcrtness of breath and all the other
symptoms. After every remedy and
every local physician has failed, he. as
a last resort, takes "Gulden Medical
Discovery," and the cough vanishes,
the cheek gets back its natural color,
sleep becomes sound and refreshing,
the spitting of blood stops, flesh and
muscles become firm, weight increases,
and life goes along in quiet and com
fort to the full limit of the three score
years and ten.
But may be it wasn't consumption
after all? May be it wasn't. You
know it was something that was at
tacking the very citadel of life, and it
was something that was cured by the
use of Dr. Pierces Golden Medical Dis
covery. And Dr. Pierce is curing such
"somethings" right along with a record
of over a quarter of a million cases,
and not more than three per cent, of
failures.
One fact, at least, is well established.
That the "Golden Medical Discovery"
does cure weak lungs, bleeding from
lungs, obstinate, lingering coughs,
laryngitis, bronchitis, throat disease,
and kindred affections of the air pas
sages, which, if neglected or badly
treated, lead up to consumption, can
no longer be doubted in view of the
many thousands of Well- established
cures of such cases reported by the
most trustworthy citizens. Many of
these cases have been pronounced con
sumption — and incurable — by the best
lecal physicians before the sufferers
commenced the use of i Dr. Pierces
Golden Medical Discovery.
Whether the doctors have erred in
their judgment in these numerous cases
or not is not for us to decide.
Suppose we put some of these so
called "Incurables" in the. witness box.
Let us call Mr. John Brooks, of Boyl
ston, Worcester Co., Ma«s. (Sawyers
Mills), who says: "I feel it my duty
r.ow to write to you to tell you of the
great benefit I have received. About
a year ago I was taken; with a bad
cold which settled on my lungs. The
doctors said I was in consumption and
could not get well. I took Emulsion of
Cod Liver Oil and it did me no good.
After taking it four months I heard of
your 'Golden Medical Discovery' and
wrote to you for advice. I have taken
your medicine and it saved my life. I
felt so sick when 1 wrote to you that I
thought I would not live the winter
through. In the morning I raised an
awful lot, and would spit all the time,
and had pains in my chest. My bowels
would not move more than once or twice
a week; my strength was nearly gone;
I could not do a whole day's work.
New, my bowels are regular every clay,
and I feel no more pain in my chest.
Feel a great deal stronger. lam work
ing hard every day, driving a team in
the woods, and I owe my thanks to
Dr. Pierces Golden Medical Discovery.
I know it saved my life. I cannot
praise it enough. I am proud to tell
my friends what cured me."
Still another witness writes: "I had
a bad cough and got so low with it that
I could not sit up." Thus writes Mrs.
Kittle Gray, of New London, Union
Co., Ark. She continues, "Our family
physician told my husband that I had
consumption. I had pains through my
chest and spit up blood. I took your
'Golden Medical Discovery' and it cur
ed me. It saved my life. I don't think
any one would die of consumption who
would take Dr. Pierces Golden Medical
Discovery."
It is hard to draw the line where con
sumption begins, but the important
thing to remember is that all these
wasting, debilitating diseases caused by
imperfect liver-action and mal-nutri
tion almost invariably lead on to con
sumption, and this class of obscure and
obstinate diseases are what this great
"Discovery" cures.
Miss Amanda M. Hillegass, of New
Buena Vista, Bedford Co., Pa., writes/
"I am cured. Have no symptoms (ft
that deadful diseas.?, 'liver complaint.
of which Dr. Pierces Golden MedicaJ
Discovery cured me. I often think how
low and how far gone I was when first
I began to take your medicine. I had
'liver complaint' in its worst form.
Complexion was yellow, eyes bloodshot,
and I was nothing but skin and bones.
Indeed my whole system was a com
plete wreck. I suffered greatly from
headaches, and the thought of food
would sicken me. I thought sometimes
that I was going into consumption. Had
such severe pain in right lung and
often would spit blood. Now the pain
is all gone and my health has come
back once more. I am fleshy now and
have a full face. Now I can eat any-
thing an<l at any time. I have used
ten bottles of "Gulden Medical Dis
ci very' and five vials of 'Pellets,' and
strictly followed the hygienic advice
given by Dr. Pierce. Am happy to say
it was indeed a cure."
The discoverer of this remarkable
remedy, Dr. R. V. Pierce, is chief con
sulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel
and Surgical Institute of Buffalo, N.
Y. During his thirty years occupancy
of this eminent position, he has had
probably the widest practical experi
ence in treating severe chronic distas^s
of any physician in this country. His
prescriptions are famous the world over
for their wonderful effectiveness. His
"Favorite Prescription" is recognized
everywhere as the greatest of nerve
builders for weak and ailing women.
His "Pleasant Pellets" are acknowledg
ed as the .most perfect natural laxative
ever prescribed.
Mr. Val Burkard, of 6. r > Mohr Avenue,
Buffalo, N. V., writes: "Five weeks
ago I followed your advice and took
twe bottles of Dr. Pierces Golden Med
ical Discovery, and also" two vials of
'Pellets.' I am sorry that I am out of
employment and consequently have
had to discontinue the medicines, never
theless, I consider myself entirely cur
ed.as there have been no eruptions situ- •
I finished the last bottle. I think it is
the greatest remedy on the globe for
blood and digestive disorders. My ap
petite increased wonderfully; I have
also gained flesh. I would like every
body to know the true value of Dr.
Pierces medicines, as I am confident
that by persistent use they will cure
all ailments for which they are recom
mended. I have recommended the
medicines to some of my friends, who
have troubles similar to mine."
But why can't other doctors effect
cures like the foregoing? Well, for
many reasons. One reason is that Dr.
Pierce, in his wx>i*ld-wide practice, -with
his eighteen assistants, treats a thuu
sand cases of any given form of dis
ease to the one case treated by the
country doctor. He knows the regular
forms of the disease and the variations.
He puts his finger on the real issue at
once. Somebody or a dozen somebod
ies may have given you up, but if Dr.
Pierce says he can cure you, you're
safe. But there's another reason, be
yond study, knowledge, experience, and
observation, and that's natural facul
ty. Dr. Pierce is a successful special
ist by birth, by choice, by training.
That is why Dr. Pierce has cured BO
many thousands of cases. It's faculty.
It's the know how. It's the never fail—
the never give up. He treats the
so-called hopeless cases, and he
succeeds to the amazement
of the physicians who have
plenty of learning and medical equip
ment but lack the special qualification
of faculty— the know how. Ninety
seven people in every hundred who are
suffering from disease for which Dr.
Pierces Golden Medical Discovery is
recommended can be cured. Are you
one of the 3or one of the 97? Which is
the more likely? But remember that
you are daily drifting farther from the
land of health. If this message reaches
you, act on it. Begin today.
Don't accept any substitutes for Dr.
Pierces Golden Medical Discovery.
The shadow of success is imitation.
Imitation remedies don't cure, any
more than the imitation banquets of
the stage feed the hungry. You want
a cure. Don't accept the shadow for
the substance and "spend your money
for that which is not bread."
Out of his lifetime experience as a
practicing physician and professor of
physiology, Dr. Pierce has complied a
wonderful thousand-page book, illus
trated with over 700 drawings and
several colored plates^ It Is entitled
the People's Common Sense Medical
Adviser, and is a complete family
medical library in one volume. Nearly
seven hundred thousand copies were
sold at $1.50 each. The profit on this
sale Dr. Pierce considered warranted
him in issuing a free edition, and a
paper-bound copy will now be sent
absolutely free for the bare cost of
mailing, 21 one-cent stamps, or Jn
heavier French-cloth covers for 31
stamps. Address World's Dispensary
Medical Association, 663 Main Street,
Buffalo, N. Y. Only one copy will be
sent to one family. It should be in
every family in the land.
