confidence and pride in it is the river
traffic and navigation on the Upper Mis-
sissippi. For more than quarter of a
century he has struggled to build up the
steamboat interest of these upper waters
Much of this long period he struggled
against adversely, and part of the time
against very formidable opposition. AT
last his indomitable pluck, good judgment
and great energy enabled him TO show
himself successful at all points. His final
victory over adverse circumstances,
wealthy combinations and unprincipled
adversares is matter of rejoicing, not
only to the Commodore himself, but to
all his old neighbors and life long friends
ia this solid old city of St. Paul"

A COMING STRIKE

There is good foundation for a rumor
that there is a contemplated general strike
of the coal miners throughout the entire
state, in the near future There is no
doubt, however but that there will be a
strike unless there is a different state of
affairs brought about than now exists be-
tween the operators and the miners. The
main cause for the belief that the strike
will be inaugurated is the fact that the
operators throughout the state seem to
have determined, with unanimity that
looks like o combination, to ignore the
law recently passed by the legislature re-
gasding a check weighman, etc, and also
general disposition to reduce the price
of mining a half-cent bushel On these
two points the miners are firm, and if the
operators refuse to obey the law as passed
at the last session, or attempt to reduce
the price of mining, the strike will GER
.tainly take place. As all the miners
throughout the state have lately organized
themselves into a mutual protective asso-
citation, strike in one particular locality
means strike in all as they claim they
can only hope TO get their rights, from
their standpoint, by concentrated and
united action throughout the state.

No FUNERAL RITES.

The local clergy of Keithsburg refused
to accord to Blair, the man who seriously
wounded his wife and then killed himself,
any of the accustomed funeral rites. The
Aledo Democrat is of the opinion that lit
matters nothing with the poor, wronged,
maddened, distracted man, whether these
priests pow-wowed over him or not That
is matter of style and public opinion.
The pleading thief on the cross would
have got but little out of them, unless he
had in his day been good big successful
thief, and had since repented and built
colleges and meeting houses and was able
to die royalty with the govt"
A correspondent at Keithsburg writes
of the affair:
Thursday afternoon Blair was taken to
Green Mound Cemetery and laid beneath
the cold sod. Not tear was shed, nor
prayer offered as the coffin was lowered
into the cold, cold grave In behalf of the
clergy of Keithburg, we will say they re-
fused to attend the funeral or offer a
short benediction over the remains of
this man Blair Is this Christianity? Or
does it show Christitn spirit? What
was the mission of the meek and lowly
Jesus while on earth? Was it not to pray
for the sinner We know that Blair did
not bear good reputation, and com
United suicide: but according to the
teachings of the Bible, the sinner as well
as the saint has soul to save, and for Il
minister to refuse to attend the funeral
of man who has sinned, and use tie
language a Christian gentleman used
in this case, has a tendency to weaken
the faith of the Christian, as we'll as the
SINNER, in the good the Church is per-
forming, and the noble mission Of its
ministers. Blair was soldier in the late
war; carried Southern lead in his body,
and at the end a patriotic Republican
clergy refused to say short bedediction
as his remains were laid in their last rest
ing place. Since everything connected
with the tragedy has come to light, it seems
that Blair has been opposing the low de-
grading acts of his wsfe, Newcomb and
others, and tried to stop it, and failing,
was driven to distraction, and in a mad
dened fit attempted to kill his wife, and
to end his miserable existence, shot him
self.

A SWINDLE

The refusal of the banks to take the
trade dollar for more than IS or so cents
is swindle on the working men. The
trade do llar should be received for 100
cents, or banished- The government
authorized its coinage, and therefore
should see that it is redeemed, and mol
have it disgraced, and be the means of
swindling every one who dares TO touch
it. This war being waged against it al
present is a scheme of the banks to buy
them up for IS or 50 cents, keep them a
while, and the first thing we all know
they will be put in circulation again at 81
cents or at par. They were coined for
the purpose of swinding, and will always
be used for that, unless the government
puts a stop TO it.

land, named Bond, set his cap for her and
won her affectians. Last winter he was
arrested on suspicion of having burglar
lied her house while she was gliding in
the may waltz at dizzy dance at the
Academy of Music. He was released,
however without prosecution, bis guilt
appearing rather shady, and he was re-
instated as favorite in the affections of his
mistress. At length suspicion dawned
upon her that he was working her
for all he could get. Having gone to Chi
cago, he wrote that lie had been appoint
ed policeman and wanted $40 to by a
uniform. She sent it to him Then he
wrote for $50 more, and she wrote to the
chief of police asking if Bond was on the
force" He replied that he was not.
Tuesday night they were to have been
welded, Bond was on hand with a
groomsman, marriage license and a
justice of the peace. The idol of his
heart, the apple of his eye, Just as the
squire was about to tie the nuptial knot,
demanded an explanation. He was I'M
able to satisfy her. Thereupon she made
him dsgorge her gold watch and chain,
toothpick and scarf pin which he was
wearing, and fired him bodily from the
house. Bond thus missed good thing

knew it was hot, and sought cool place,

were all the rage, but, thanks to kind
Providence, it is cooler to-day. But we
mustn't brag. 1t may be as hot as an
