SALTWATER GLOBULES.

Engine No. 210 was partly off the track
yesterday in the lower part of the Omaha
yard.
The steamer G. B. Knapp, with large
and commodious barge, has been secured
for the trip down Lake st. Croix on next

The freight now awaiting shipment on
the steamer War Eagle consists of several
Minnesota Chief threshers, with their
engines, 100 barrels of flour for New Or
leans.
The board of equalization was in session
yesterday. But three members beside the
county auditor were present. Not much
business of public Importance was trans
acted.
Next Sunday will be a day of some note
among the Catholic people of this city,
that day having been set for the christen-
ing of the bells by which the good people
of st. Michaels will hereafter be sum-
moned to worship. A number of priests
from distance are expected to be present
on the occasion,
The Saltwater Brass band will furnish
the music this evening at the Wigwam, on
the occasion of the festival given by the
ladies of the Baptist church. Ice cream
and other refreshments will be served. Let
all who can be present and enjoy them
selves, for one evening at laast. An admis-
sion fee of ten cents will be charged
Another heavy wind and rain storm, ac-
companied by thunder and lightning,
passed over this city between II and y
O'Clock Sunday evening. For an hour or
so before the bursting of the storm, the
heavens were one lurid glow of light, as
flash after flash of lightning followed each
other in rapid succession. So far as could
be learned no damage of account was
done.
John Goff, seventeen years of age, had

There is no doubt of the fact that William
Noonan, blacksmith in this city, received
pretty severe rap on the top of his head
from revolver in the hands of Deputy
Sheriff Clewet, Ramsey comfy officer.
It is stated that Noonan and his two
friends had obtained beer at different
places and after drinking it had refused
payment. This statement is denied by
the accused party, who say that they only
refused to pay for beer that was called for
by other persons. One of the Saltwater
parties was arrested and gave security for
his appearance at court.

Fargo Argus. July 13.

Fargo Argus, July 13.
1t is noticeable fact that the st. Paul
papers have been for long time past
barren of news from the Red river valley,
and especially from Fargo. They have
taken pains, as many believe, to ignore
the metropolis, unless something could be
said detrimental to this section. 1t is
pleasant, therefore, to know that the ever
enterprising and energetic H. P. Hall, pro-
prietor of the DAILY GLOBE, has establish
ed department for Dakota and Montana,
with headquarters at Fargo. Mr.. Foote,
for long time night editor of the Argus,
has been placed in charge, and his person
al knowledge of men and things in this
section makes him eminently fitted for the
position. Judging from the tenor of the
following, taken from yesterdays GLOBE,
it would seem to be the duty of the Red
river valley, and especially Fargo, to pat
ronize the paper.

1 Sttspiciolts Look.


The failure of Jewett, which occurred
Saturday, is developing some very peculiar
features. The inventory of the stock and
statement of liabilities the first of January
showed that Jewett was worth $4,000 to
$4,000 at low valuation. Jewett knows
nothing at all of book keeping, and left
that branch of the work entirely to T. D.
Lee, who has been with him since he came
to the Northwest The latter furnished a
statement, and the books were examined
by MacLeon, of Dun & Cos mercantile
agency, who so reported it It now
occurs that the stock footings in
the inventory book were raised
from $4,000 to $4,000 in carrying for
ward from one page to another, and more
similar discrepancies are looked fer when
the books are examined. Trade has been
good, and there is no reason Cor the pres
ent condition of affairs, except that the
bookkeeper's misrepresentation, both to
Jewetttand the creditors, and the fact that
there must have been an immense leakage
somewhere. G. j. Kissner, of Fargo, has
a mortgage of $500 on the stock, and
week ago Singer & Benedict, of Milwaukee.
took an inventory and chattel mortgage
for $4,000 on the grounds that they would

After figuring the inventory they declined
to do so, and now hold the mortgage.
Campbell & Burbank, of st. Paul, have an
attachment for $4,000, and the stock is in
the hands of the sheriff. Jewett is regarded
by all as thoroughly honest, and an ex-

E1emDting Railroad Lands.
Yankton Pr ess & Dakotaian.

startling discovery has been made
which will certainly not rebound to the
credit of the last Dakota legislature. 1t is
found that within the carefully guarded"
railroad law known as chapter ninety nine,
laws of 1888, is a positive specification in
favor of railroads-one which, perhaps, the
railroad companies themselves will not ap-
prove of, as it is almost certain to stimu-
late granger warfare against corporations
and in the end prove disastrous to the
companies operating in Dakota. The
effect of the act is to exempt all rail-
road lands in Dakota from taxation,
so long as they remain the property
of a railroad corporation, whether
it is necessary to operate the road or not.
Under this law the immens epossessions of
the Northern Pacific and the land which
belongs to the Chicago & Northwestern in
the counties of Deuel., Grant, CodingtOn,
and Hamlin are relieved from taxation,
even to the townsites which are their prop
erty. The Northern Pacific land grant in
Dakota is 100 miles wide and 450 miles
long, and under this secret act of legis-
lature which had already committed enough
open infamy to consign most of its mem
bers to everlasting ignominy, this immense
tract is removed from the responsible ty
of sharing the public burden. The
act as it is drawn is an apparent improve
ment on the old law for en- orcing the col
lection of taxes against railroads, being
skillfully made to catch the granger vote.
The old law levied per cent. upon the
gross earnings of railroad companies and
carefully specified the exemptions to be the
road bed, the necessary grounds for depot
purposes, and rolling stock and buildings,
and subjected all railroad lands to taxation.
The new law levies per cent. upon gross
earnings and includes among the exemp.
tions the land owned by railroad COM
panies. The bill was rushed through the
legislature during the last days of the ses-
sion in the midst of the excitement fol-
lowing the passage of the capital bill
when the most of the members seemed to
have lost thei- heads and were ready to
/ vote 'aYe" on any proposition. 1t was
not printed and if it was read in full very
few listened to it or gave it attention. 1t
was an opportune time for just such a
piece of work. Governor OrdWay had not
time to sign the constitutional convention
act, but this fraud upon the people bears
the endorsement, approved March 9th,

enced the railroads to suddenly withdraw
their opposition to the capital commits

II the Democrats, at their approaching state
convention, will nominate good man for lieu
tenant governor-say Barnum, even Wilson or
McNalre-and good man for state treasurer,
like either of the Rices-and recommend the
Democracy to vote for the remainder of the Re
publican state ticket, they can elect their lieu
tenant governor and treasurer.
There are thousands of Republicans who
would vote that ticket sure. They do not want
to vote for either Gilman or Kittelson. This is
from straight REPUBLICAN,.

The hearing of Otto Johuk, arrested last
Thursday for rape, took place before
Judge Gould at Moorhead this morning.
The woman, Mrs. Sarah Butler, swore to
the facts as previously stated, but the
facts developed in the cross examination
naturally indicated that she did not fight
very hard, as she stated under oath that
while the rape was being committed her
hands were lying beside her while the
prisoner held her mouth with one hand.
She also stated that he offered her SO be-
fore assaulting her, and she made no reply.
He gave bail in the sum of $4,000.
