THE N. p. LAND GRANT.

N. Y. Times.
Two questions were submitted to
Mr.. Schurz 1. Had the grant to
the [ Northern Pacific company lapsed
by reason of the company's failure to
perform certain acts within the time
specified ? 2. If it has so lapsed, can
the department recognize any acts by
the company looking to the initiation
of new rights or to the enlargement of
old ones Mr.. Schurz was disposed
to decide both questions against the
company, but on the submission to
Attorney General Devens that officer
decided that the time specified for the
completion of the road would not
expire till July 4, 1879 that till con-
gress takes steps to declare forfeiture
of the land grant, it remains in full
force and effect ; and that the grant
must be held to be the same as it
existed on the day when it was made
and accepted by the company.

SMALLPOX CURE.-Many of the
papers are republishing an old remedy
for the smallpox, which it is claimed
has been very successfully used for the
cure Of that loathsome disease. 1t is
also said to be equally good in cases of
scarlet fever. The following is the
prescription
"Sulphate of zinc, one grain fox
glove (digitalis), one grain half a
teaspoonful of sugar when thoroughly
mixed add four ounces of water. Take
a spoonful every hour. Either disease
will disappear in II hours For a
child, smaller doses, according to age"
A great many well-attested cases of
cure with this remedy are given, and
it is certainly worth the while of
physicians to try its effect.

ALMOST A MURDER.

Among the drunken crowd Of men
that thronged our streets last Monday,
was one named Murphy and another
named Sullivan. Sullivan was quite
quarrelsome all the afternoon, and
about Il o'clock that evening the
two men got into a fight while on
their way to camp on the Nemadji,
and Murphy was terribly cut up with
a knife. One thrust was aimed at the
heart, and it is thought that only the
four shirts he wore saved his life.
Another stab took effect between the
last two ribs, and another ugly flesh
wound scored across the abdoman At
first it was thought the man must die,
but further examination showed the
wounds less dangerous than supposed,
and he is to-day, in fair way to re-
cover. The crowd seized Sullivan and
pulled him off his victim, and threw a
rope around his neck and would 40
doubt have hung him but for the cool
er heads of two or three of the party,
who finally succeeded in getting him
delivered over to the proper officers
and he was confined in the Jail. His
face presented a horrible appearance
the next morning, for it must not be
supposed that he had the fight all his
own way.
Sullivan will have his examination
to-day, Friday, and what the result
will be of course we do not know, and
while we have no sympathy nor re-
spect for either it would not be the
proper thing to do, to advise the court
rs to its duties, before hearing is had.
But LET Justice be done.

4 HORNETS NEST.

Congressman Caswell has poked his
stick into and stirred up the iveliest
hornets nest he ever saw, down at
Madison. After it was decided that
Col. Reyes could not be re-appointed
post master at that city, Congressman
Caswell asked the people to name by
petition their next choice. Two
petitions were circulated, one for a
Mr.. Frank, theeother for Mr.. Helm,
the latter receiving by far the largest
petition ever sent in for similar pur-
pose from that city. After all this,
Mr.. Congressman shoves the petitions
down into his hip pocket, takes walk
out into the country, as it were, and
picks up granger in the person of
Gen. Geo. +. Bryant, and has made
him PM. at the Madison X Roads,
and now the Madisonites are crashing
their teeth and weeping crocodile
tears, and just WON'T be comforted,
and swear they will make it warm for
Caswell when he gets home.

ORDER OUT OF CHAOS.

Through the failure of the Air Line,
the tempests raised by the workmen,
the exaggerated stories of the re-
porters, and the fixing of the blame
for the failure, and visits of COM
mites, to Madison, the air and the St.
Paul papers have been full of rumors
for the past two weeks, and most of
them of the most absurd character.
The men were justly indignant, and
contractors felt blue, and neither could
be blamed A few drunken hoodlums
talked loud of demolishing everybody
and everything this side of China, as
revenge for the loss of few dollars,
and the men who had lost the least as
a general thing howled the most-in
fact one of the loudest takers of the
whole lot had not seen the Air Line
road for three months and did not
have cent due him, but he hung
around here and lived off the people
Just the same as an honest laborer did.
One party of the rum-crazed lunatics
burned camp on that road eight
miles from here, and another lot near
Fiezie attempted to burn the bridge
on the Omaha line but failed. 1t was
but reasonable to expect some excite
ment under the circumstances, and
we have had it the wind has blown
the clouds away some of the men
have gone here and there and some
remain in camp and will go to work
on the Omaha road next week The
Omaha company, which now expects
to get the land grant, as by rights
they should, have generously come to
the front and out of sympathy for the
contractors and men have offered to
pay them Is cents on the dollar of the
Indebtedness of the old company. If
this offer is accepted, this sum, with
what has been saved by other means,
will nearly or quite clear the books on
a par basis, and everything will once
more be serene.
Mr.. Erickson, one of the heaviest
loosing contractors has A No. l credit
and will get his papers extended, and
has been given eight miles of road to
build on the Omaha, and has gone to
work, his old crew staying with him.
All things considered we think order
has come out of chaos in a remarkably
short space of time. A good many
claim that new company is to be
organized and the Air Line is vet to
be pushed through to an early compile
ton. While we have no disposition
to say there is no truth in these rumors,
we will say that we have as yet seen
or heard of nothing that has any
weight with us. That a road will be
built at no distant day to supply the
demands in that direction, no one for
moment doubts, but we do not think
it will be on the line as laid out by
the Air Line Company Still we may
be mistaken in this, and the road as
now projected may be completed, and
of course we would all like to see it
built.

The unanimity with which the
creditors of Campbell & Smith, of
Duluth, accord the broken firm their
sympathy and aid is worthy of
credit. There is such thing as an
honest man failing once in awhile, and
the Duluth firm seems to have fallen
under the list Argonaut.
One Of the above firm, Mr.. Smith,
also does business in this city, and our
acquaintance with him substantiates
the above estimate Of him, and we
trust he may yet come out all right.
Surely his creditors will loose nothing
by extending his time and giving him
a chance to recover his lost fortune.

We return thanks to the State
Fish Commissioners for a copy of their
annual report for 1881. 1t is quite
an interesting document and shows
that the Commissioners have by no
means been idle during the past year.
The report shows that they have plant
ed young trout in % counties, to the
number of 1,0S3,000 and carpin eight
counties to the number Of 1853. Now
If the Commissioners can succeed in
protecting their young fish, it will not
be long until we can all have fine
sport angling for them.

Is THERE WATER on THE Moon Pin n
recent communication, Mr.. Helmuth Due
berg, Of Berlin, presents a new theory of the
moon, and argues the possibility Of its being
inhabited OH the further side
1t is we'll known that the moon always
presents the same face TO the earth Be-
cause this side Of the moon is an airless and
waterless desert, we are not justified Mr..
Dueberg thinks, in assuming that the other
side is like it.
Since the moon does not revove so as to
change the side presented to the earth, and
since the attraction of the earth for the
moon is very great, the heavier side. if there
is any, must be turned this way. Surprising
the moon to possess air and water, these light
err and more fluent elements, other compo-
sition would Of necessity lie OH the further
side
In the absence of any centrifugal force
due to relation on her own axis, the only
centrifugal force acting upon the moon
must be that resulting from the moons mo-
tiOn round the earth. This would tend still
more to throw the moons dir and water to the
"out" side with respect to the earth. For
practical illustration Of this view, Mr.. Due
berg suggests ball swinging in circle by
means ola cord. The ball like the moon,
will always turn the same side to the centre
of revolution; and if it be dipped in any
liquid, the liquid will be rapidly accumulated
on the opposite or outer side. Hence the pos.
sibility, Of water, air and life on the moon,
around the shores Of central lunar sea.
