M. & St. P. rail road company, which will proba bly result in a big immigration next season. P^ecently H. F.Hun err^eok-sr-eaoi-pany of newspaper men, several of them from '•Chica go, through tbe state in his pri vate car, and the accounts of what they saw are certainly very com plimentary to the 'Jtaters*TBT6r'' six consecutive years South Dakota has produced the greatest per cap ita wealth of any state in the un ion, and the prospects are bright for retaining that prestige for many years to come. Some of the esti mates made by this company of newspaper men, as they appeared in tbe Chicago Inter Ocean, togeth er with facts submitted, are inter esting. The damage done to the corn crop by the frosts in Septem ber is estimated at three per 'cent. The corn crop this year is placed at 18,500,000 bushels over that of last year. The total increase of new wealth produced in the state over that of last year is nearly $^7,000,000. The bank deposits, which are an index to the prosper ity of the state, are asjfollows: July 1901 -t §11,000,000 1902 30,000,000 1903 32,000,000 For two years past not a dollar of eastern capital has been required to move the large crops, showing that the state is entirely self sup porting. The following table is presented by the pencil pushers as a conservative estimate of the wealth produced in 1903: Value $35,000,000 21,000,000 11,000,000 4 000.000 2,000,000 650,000 32,000,000 7.000,000 5,000,000 12,000,000 1:800,000 4.000,000 13,000,000 Total $140,450,000 He Iicarned a Groat Truth. It is said of John Wesley that he once said to Mistress Wesley: "Why do you tell that child the same thing over and over again John Wesley, because once tell ing is not enough." It is for this, same reason that you are told again and again that Chamber lam's Cough Remedy cures colds and grip that it counteracts any tendency of these diseases to result in pneumonia, and that it is pleas ant and B&Ie to take.

For sale by V. B. Dichl. For genuine subterfuge and eva sion we yield tbe palm to iB.ro. Killion of the Lesterville Ledger. In reply to his charge three weeks ago that Lesterville grain dealers pay from four to five cents per bushel above those of Scotland we published the price list from his own paper, showing that on that week our dealers paid 1 cent per bushel for No. 3 wheat more than the Lesterville dealers. The fol lowing week he failed to correct.his. market report, although the Chica go markets showed falling off. of about five cents per bushel. Tf|en last week he attempted to justify his statement by a comparison- of his price list then.a week 'old,'-$nd ours corrected up to date. Just to show that the Ledger's market re ports are not to be relied upenifwe quote from actual purchases', mfede on October 1st, the date oritur price list which ne quotes. Wljile our dealers were paying 61 c&ts for No. 2 wheat, the records ofl J. H.'Dickson, who runs a house|ih Lesterville as well as at this: phfee, show that his house in Lester^lle paid only 60 cents for that gr|de, or one cent below Scotland prices, while the Ledge.r was quoting.- 67 •cents/ ",^The Ledger of thc*|feth shows that the Lesterville fi^ars and the Scotland dealers were pay ing identically the same price for No. 3 wheat and for corn. We quoted the Scotland market on hard coal at $10 per ton. He re plies by saying that Lesterville dealers sold coal for $10 a ton labt snmmer. A column and a half of space is devoted to just such sub terfuge. In fact Bro. Killion re minds us of Mark Twain's mule— he is an "amoosin cuss." It is coming to be expected that a real change in the climate has taken place since settlement, and more particularly during the past five years. The rainfall is not ma terially increased nor is the mean temperature different. These mat ters are things of long record and can be determined with exactness. The change appears to be in an absence of the high Jwinds of for mer years and particularly of the hot summer winds, which in pe riods of drouth used to wither veg etation. The protracted drouth of June last was accompanied by cold weather which, alone, saved tlie crops from great damage. Through out the whole period there was a degree of humidity in the air 111 marked contrast to the crackling dry weather of the old days. It is popularly believed that the chang ed condition is due to the vast quantities of water brought to the surface by the artesian wells, as sisted, no doubt, by the amount of storm water retained in the plowed fields, which formerly ran away in the streams.—South Dakotan. John Alexander Dowie, "Elijah II," started from his Zion near Chicago yesterday with nine tram loads of his followers to make a crusade in New York City. One of the rules of the expedition is that none of his company shall make goo goo eyes while on the trip. Any one caught in this of fense is to be sent back to Zion un der gnard. Whether there are enough of the faithful to Bupply the demand for such guards is yet to be determined.

LeQninn of Cavendish, Vt., was robbed of his customary health by invasion of chronic con stipation. When Dr. King's New Life Pills broke into his house, his trouble was arrested and now he's entirely cured: They're "guaran teed to cure.' 25c at V. B. Diehl's corner drug store. On Saturday lastSheriff M'utsch elknaus and J. A. Ivleinsasser, town marshal of Freeman, arrived in town with three young men from that place, viz Dick Paint er, Jake Smith and J. J. Wollman, held to answer to the charge of burglary at the October term of court. They are now occupants of the county jail.—Olivet Leader. John Parmenter sends the fol lowing amusing account of (he at tempted robbery at Olivet last week which he clipped from a daily pa per published in Spokane, Wash.: "Three burglars blew up the safe in the county treasury at noon to day and then lied. A posse was quickly organized and hot pursuit was given. One of the trio was killed and another was captured. Neither the dead bandit nor the captured one lias as yet been iden tified. The third has not been taken. The crime of the three men was bold and desperate. At the noon hour, during a lull in busi ness, they entered the office, cov ered the men therein with revolv ers, and demanded the money in the safe. Being refused, they ap plied dynamite. A crowd was im mediately attracted and then the flight and fight began." There is one truth in the above article,—three men attempted to rob the treasurer's office at Olivet. Saves Two From Deatli, "Our little daughter had an al-j most fatal attack of whooping cough and bronchitis," writes Mrs. W. K. Haviland, of Armonk, N. Y., "but, when all other remedies failed, we saved her life with Dr. King's New Discovery. Our niece, who had consumption iu an ad vanced stage, also used this won derful medicine and today Bhe is perfectly well.'
