Mr.. J. N. Tschudi has been at work
In the opera house all week and hal
made quite a change there. In addi.
ton to the business cards which adorn
the front of the stage, Mr.. Tschudi has
been painting new and elegant drop
curtain which he expects to have ready
by Saturday night. He has also made
new and larger wings, to correspond
with each scene, and before he leaves,
will paint the woodwork on the front
of the stage. He expects to finish his
work sometime next week, and the
opera house will certainly be much
. hasdsomer for his having been here.
y The following is the cast of charac-
tiers for "Among the Breakers" to be
presented at the Opera House next
Tuesday night by the Dramatic Club.

Some writer who understands the
matter remarks: "Standing adver-
tisements i'm paper command conf
dence. The man who for years resides
i'm community and lives reputable
life, even though he be of modest abil-
ity, will grow into the confidence and
esteem of his fellows. On the same
principle newspaper advertisements
become familiar i'm the eyes of the
reader. 1t may seldom be carefully
read, still it makes the name and bus
mess of a man familiar, and its con-
tinued presence in the columns of a
paper inspires confidence i'm the sta
bility of the advertiser"
We learn from various sources, that
reports are being industriOusly circula-
ted that the REGISTER lost great ma
ny subscribers by the position it took
on county politics last week. In order
that such reports may be stopped by
the exact truth, We will say that we
have lost just TWO subscribers. Two
gentlemen, whom we thoroughly re-
spect, took umbrage at our remarks |
and ordered their paper stopped. We
are very sorry to have offended them.
but we are more sorry to think that |
they cannot allow us to have and ex-
press an opinion contrary to their own.
THE REGISTER took the stand it did,
only after mature deliberatiOn and |
with the honest conviction that the |
it recommended was for the |
best interests of the county and fol the |
party. If we are wrong it
is the fault of judgment and not ofin-
We are sorry as we said, to
have offended any of our friends. but as
the usual number of new subscribers
have come in this week to take the
place of the two old ones. the REGIS
FER will still be published at the old
stand.

who explained to the magistrate that
he had used them as bible was very
good one, but the incident that recent

CduT IaHCisCo. Oo West, SouuS HAL .
A social gathering in honor of Mis-
Mary Hamer was held at the residence
of DIR. w. D. Scott last night. The
young folks of the town were well rep
resented. and with music, converse
ton and refreshments the evening
was a most pleasant one. Miss Ha-
mer's admirable playing was particu-
larly enjoyed.
We publish this week another shot
at the personal liberty argument. 1t
covers to some extent the same ground
suggested in our own comments, but
is put i'm q pungent style characteristic
of the author. We are not at liberty
to use the writer's name, but it is writ
ten by one Of the most able lawyers in
the state, aud his style will reveal him
TO many Of our readers.
We understand that some of our cit
izens contemplate going to the west
ern part of the state, to pre-empt some
of the government land recently re-
stored to the market, as noted on our
first page. We hope no one will part
with a good home here, to take up his
abode there. For general farming pur-
poses, one acre of Allen county land, is
worth more on a general average, than
l6S acres of the land referred to. Go
aud see it, before you sell out here. -

themselves of this opportunity, will be
fully repaid. He will be in the city

Press and Dakotaian: Bismarck IS
capitol building, over which SO much
noise has been made, is moreof news
paper structure than a reality. Parties
direct from the scene of operations
state that the corner stone is about all
there is of the building and that since
the conclusion of the hevain-gloriousc cere-
monies attendant upon giving it a rest
ing place no work has been done upon
the alleged edifice. 1t is said that three
hundred dollars wonld pay the con-
struction expenses thus far incurred.
Yet the newspapers of Bismarck assert
that five hundred men are employed
night and day on the superstructure Of
the building, that an electric light is
to be furnished to aid the night gang in
their labors, and much other similar
nonsense. There is, according to the
account of our informant, just enough
of the foundation laid to hold up the
corner stone and just enough all togeth-
er to make fitting monument to the
fraud, corruption and misrepresenta-
tion OF a speculative ring which has
been dissolved by the edict of the court.

The Dakota Huronite, of the 18th, un-
der the caption of "An Important
Event" says: "Few people realize the
Importance of the opening of the new
southeastern line which occurred on
Monday last. 1t means not only new
line to Chicago and the almost certain
avoidance of snow blockades in the
winter, but the opening of a large tract
of country which can with little eff
fort be made tributary to Huron to
great extent. Twelve new towns
Villas. Esmond, Carthage, Canova Cant
stota, Salem, Parker, Hurley, Center
vile, Beresford, Alcester and Hawar-
den-are all brought within few
hours ride. Goods can be ordered by
mail one day, with ample time to re-
turn them by freight the next. With
only one or two exceptions, these towns
are all new and have, as yet, formed no
business connections. Now is the time
for our people to form their acquain-
tance and secure their patronage. The
line also has connections with the coal
fields of Iowa, a fact which our coal
dealers should not be slow in recogni-
zing and giving us an early benefit.
This line not only gives us the opportu-
nifty to reach large section of terrific
ry, but it enables a new tide of emigra-
tion to reach us. a great portion of
the emigrants who have settled along
the line of the c., M. ST. z. south would
have at least visited this section, had it
not required a tedious stage ride to
reach us. The rail route to Sioux Falls,
Yankton, and other points in the south
ern portion of the territory, has been
shortened several hundred miles. Had
this line of road been secured by great
effort, there would have been great
demonstrations at its opening; but it
has come to us so quietly that we fail
to realize its great Importance"
