Those who attempted last winter to

Those who attempted last winter to
effect the repeal of the pre.emption
law are not dead, neither are they
sleeping. They are doing all in their
power to work up hostility to the pre-
emption law and will renew their at
tack next winter. This opposition to
the law comes from a conscienceless
set of land grabbers, who hope to
have the agricultural lands that are
being taken up under the pre-emption
act. sold at auction to spectators.
The delegate to congress from Dakota
should be prepared to meet these
enemies of the country's prosperity
next winter.-Fargo Republication.

IN FULL UNIFORM.
A Handsome Drill Last Night BY the
Knfxhts Of ST. George.

A Handsome Drill Last Might by the
knights Of ST. George.
The knights of st. George had a dress
drill last evening at their quarters in st.
Alphonsus Hall in the presence of large
number of invited guests, including many
ladies. The society has lately received
its uniform, I'm which the members ap-
peared last night. 1t Is natty costume
and the boys look we'll in 1t. A frock coat,
buttoned to the chin, is belted in with .
handsome red belt, with broad silver
buckle. The sword, handsomely mounted
and plated, hangs by the usual guard
chains OF ornsmented links. The hat is
the cooked" article, bearing white ostrich
plumes, and the buff leather cuffs and
white gloves complete the costume. A
squsre-top fatigue cap is, OF course, a neces'
ssry conconitsnt.
For the drill, las. night, a squad Of 30
turned out and when drawn up IN com
psny front or marching in column OF
tours, they certainly looked we'll. uptsn 5
infantry tactics are employed and are best
adapted for such cases. Upton basis MS
manual on column of fours and his ma
nGuyres were we'll executed. Capt. Dan
Fitzpatrick was in command, assisted by
Lieutenants Andy Stauver and Albert
Hadlich, and the timely orders by them
were executed with promptness and preci'
sion.
The company present greatly enjoyed
the drill and many compliments were
showered upon the Knights, especially by
the ladies, who thought the uniforms too
sweet for any use. Not all of the members
were in uniform, as the remainder Of the
dress suits have not arrived. When the
entire society turns out, it will make as
fine appearance and do as good marching
as the best the city can turn out.

out a Cause.

Late last night information reached this
Office of the suicide at Bellaire OF Joseph
Butler, a young man residing in the Eighth

meagre and arrived too late for the receipt
Of fuller details. The melancholy affair
took place in the saloon of Smith Butler,

last evening. Butler went INTO the saloon
and drawing a revolver shot himself in the
left breast, the ball passing just under the
heart and lodging in the left lung, near
The ribs. Three physicians were sent for
and an examination found the young mans
condition almost If not absolutely helpless.
He was placed in bed and a telephone mes
sage sent his father AMI brother, who I'M
medately went to the place. The last in
formation is to the effect that the would
vas fatal but his morning may bring
revival OF hopes.
Joe Butler, as he is always known, is a
son of Charles Butler, is ABOUT IL years OF
age, and has been employed at the South
Wheeling glass works He has always born
a splendid reputation, and his friends are
at a loss to account for his attempt at sell
destruction He is a brother OF George
Eutler, OF the Eighth ward hose house
WHO is also very popular in the Eighth
ward. No cause. at this writing has been
assigned for the suicide.
