CORN FOR FUEL.
The Terrible Straits OF SNOW
D0unI Communities IA the
Northwest.
Cheyenne ". IT, Leader

A gentlman who left Sioux City,
Iowa., last Saturday reports that two
thirds of the people in Sioux City are
burning corn at thirty cents per BUSH
Ell, while the railroads are blockaded
to Yankton, Sioux Falls, St. Paul,
and Chicago direct. A party who
had Just arrived from Sioux Falls on
the first train down in four weeks
(the track being now blocked AGAIN.
brought tiding of an even more des-
perate state of affairs. The people
had burned everything from the lum-
Der yards, and, that source OF fuel be-
ing exhausted, they were tearing
down and consuming sheds and barns.
Further up, and especially on the
prairies, the suffering was terrible.
Tie hay gathered for stock was all
used up for fuel, and much stock had
been killed to keep it from freezing
and starving. Railroad ties were
torn up, and even telegraph poles cut
down in places, and families were
clubbing together to spare a house Or
two for fuel, in neighborhood, after
their coal and wood had been used up
and all their available furniture was
gone.
A train that started out with shov-
elers from Pierre had to be abandon
ed, and the men walked few miles
distant east and left for Huron to es~
cape being showed In. Just to give
you an idea of the drifts that are
: blockading the road, will give you
an illustration The mail carrier who
brought the mail through from Sleepy
Eye to Huron, making the trip on
snowshoes, measured one drift. Il
was five hundred feet long and ayers
aged fortyrseven feet deep. At
Pierre there is plenty Of food and fu-
81 to last until the sun raises the
snow blockade, but from Huron to
Sleepy Eye, distance Of 260 miles,
there is a famine both of fuel and
food, and the suffering and loss Of
life to the unfortunate settlers who
have taken up homesteads will be
simply awful. There is no way to
reach them with aid, and heaven only
knows what the result will be. Many
Of these people located between
these points moved in last fall, built
a small house and did not lay IN a
winters supply of provisions, thinks
ing that they could get all the sup
plies they needed by going to. the
railroad. Everything that will burn
is being made use ofby these wretch
ed people to keep from freezing
clothing not absolutely necessary,
lumber yards, railroad ties, joists and
partitions in houses, hay and grain,
everything that will burn is seized
upon by those wretched people
The mail-carrier before spoken of
said that on his trip be heard of eight
people frozen to death, and in his
opinion there must be many more
that have already persisted. 1t is im-
possible to form any idea of the num-
Der that must perish of starvation and
cold if the blockade continues much
longer.

Character In Newspapers.

Every newspaper in America, or in the
world, has a charac ter exclusively its own.
1t is as different from all other. papers as
one man is different fron another. Some
newspapers, like some individuals, have
stronger characteristics than others, but
esch has distln entity of its own. Even
an attempt to make two newspapers alike
fails, and this is ons Of the mysterious of
the business, which even the oldest crafts
man is unable to solve. Passing by the
type and make up-the dress of news,
paper-there is q certain tone about each
individual formal which no other poss ess-
es. This tone is rot the expression of one
individual, but the voices Of many nodded
into one.

Historical Reflections.

Chinese historians tell us that 1858 before
the time of Christ some strangers from the
South Seas came to China, bringing with
them turtle on whose back was written the
history of the world. This is the first terrapn
story. There have never been found in the
woods of America turtles so old as this one,
but the lies told about them have been more
startling, interesting and bald-faced. This
is owing to the ingenuity and industry of
the local press. The press is a great power
See how it brings out the cider and bales
the cotton. Many scholars believe that the
Chinese discovered America centuries be-
fore Columbus was invented. They did not
find Denis kearney when they came here in
that early age. Oh, no the world wasn't
old enough to produce such mean man
then. 1t required more centuries of dirt to
make Denis Kearney. And then it was a
long, long time before there could be found
one state that would submit to hold both
kearney and Kalloch. And it had been
fenced out from the rest of the world with
great mountains and wide alkali deserts for
this purpose. Other scholars think the
aboriginal Chinese themselves came from
Peru. But it is not easy to Peruve antique
Chinese joke; discovered 1913 years after the

consider the marvellous antiquity of this
wonderful people, when we remember that
man has inhabited this earth nearly 1000
years, not counting the Fourth of July and
the Queens birthday, when we contem-
plate, through all these centuries and ages,
the ceaseless application of human thought
and ingenuity to the industrial and mechani-
cal arts, we are lost in wonder that all of
human science and wisdom and inventive
ingenuity and mechanical skill has utterly
failed to evolve satisfactory husking peg
or practical freight car coupler.
ooh, why should the spirit of mortal be proud?"
