DR. S. H. MOORE

Is Much Pleased With the Country About Hamilton, No. Dak. Hamilton, X. Dak., Oct. 3. Editor Democrat:—l left Rensselaer in -the evening of Sept. 21; reached this place at noon the 23d. Had a very pleasant trip. Registered at the Biggs House, an elegant hotel, where I find all the conveniences and comforts of a real home. The w'eather, the largest portion of the time since I arrived here, has been damp and chilly, with now and then a brisk shower. The country is very pretty with an excellent soil. Threshing of grain has been materially delayed on account of bad weather. But little more than half the grain has been threshed. I have 180 acres yet to thresh; too wet to do any now 1 and for several days. lam much pleased with my recent purchase here. I have one of the prettiest farms that I ever saw’. Hope to finish harvesting and repairing farm buildings within a week. There are Jots of Indianaians who have invested here—King Davis, Harvey Davisson, Uncle William Baker, Rev. Clarke and many others. I am fully persuaded that there is a bright future for this part of Dakota. f Numerous enquiries about Jasper county people by friends here. The rain and chilly condition of the atmosphere emphasizes the fact that we Hoosiers should stay close to the stove today. Best wishes to all, Respectfully, S. H. Moore.
