nominated.

THE formal opening of the Northern
Pacific road for traffic and travel marks
the completion of an important enter
prise that effects the entire country,
and especially the northwest. There
are now FIVE lines that connect the Pa
cifc states with the east, at suitable
distances from each other These will
make the competition much sharper
than heretofore. The Northern Pacific
will undoubtedly take much of the
travel and trade, and force the others to
reduce their rates to honest figures.
But the greatest benefit will be the
building mp of the country. Thousands
of homes will be brought near to market
and the settlers will flock into the coun-
try it traverses by the thousands. Thus
empires Of wealth VIII be erected out of
what now are but empires of wastes.
Mr.. Willard. Who is the head center of
the Northern Pacific, is just now the
central railroad figure. He is almost
lionized in fact His recent trip over
the road was continuous grand ova-
ton, of which he may well feel proud.
The people are right in duly honoring
the man who brings to thoir country
such blessing as railroad.-Ex.

SOME few days since, war between
China and France seemed imminent, but
late dispatches indicate that the casus
belli will be amicably settled, and a
great deal OF unnecessary blood shed
obviated Imagine battle ground with
the French drawn up in battle array on
one side, and the Chinese on the other,
and you will readily see that war be-
tween these nations would be ridiculous
in the extreme.

LET the electors of this county re-
member when they attend the prima-
ries, and convention, that what the coun-
ty wants and requires is honest, reliable,
efficient officers; officers that not only
have the qualifications necessary for
their several positions, but who also
will conduct the affairs and look after
the interests of the county economically
and justly. Men are prone to be iniiu-
enced by partisan zeal, or personal pref
udice, or preference, but under present
circumstances, they should consider the
crude state of politics in this county,
and cast their influence, not for the
partisan or friend, but for the candidate
who is the best qualified to perform the
functions of the Office to which he as
pires. We believe that merit should
always be recognized and rewarded, and
if among the candidates for the several
Offices, there are men who have served
the county honestly and well, it would
be but justice that they should receive
the appreciation of the people by the
further endorsement of their services.
If there are those who lack the ability,
CIR whose characters are such as to ere
ate suspicious as to their probity, they
should be cast aside and better men
nominated.

THE acquittal of Frank James at
Kansas City, last Thursday, is another
instance in which the free use of money
defeats justice. There can be no ques-
ton but that Frank James is desper-
ado of the deepest dye, and deserves all
the punishment the law allows, yet, in
his first trial, he is by some hocus pocus
acquitted.

THE town of Marion, Alabama, has
a colored Republican postmaster. y
few days ago, some of his white breth-
rem who wanted his office for one of
their own color, withdrew from his bond
with view of having him removed. But
as he had made good postmaster, some
prominent Democrats, unwilling to see
him treated in that way, made bond
for him amounting to sos, 900, and he
retains the Office.

Miss FIELDS Cooperative Dress
Association in New York having
come to gIIef or rather, having
brought grief to stockholders and
creditors, another female enter
prise has been inaugurated in this
city. This latter is cooperative
life association for women only.
The regular insurance companies
are reluctant to take risks on fe-
males, because as they claim, wo-
men are extra-hazardous, the losses
on them being 20 per cent greater
than on men. 1t is not explained
why the ladies are more liable than
msn to beat the insurance compa-
MES. Women think they have as
good right to be insured as their
fathers, brothers and husbands
hence the cooperative association
The risks are TO be divided in classes
and death losses to be made up by
assessments on the living. 1t is
hoped the enterprise wiz not prove
a failure, and above sll, that it will
NOT run into a sWindling concern as
the Boston WOmen's bank of a year
or two age did.

PERHAPS AFTER all Professor
Virgins storm prediction failed
only through a miscalculation in
time. The snow storm that visited
this valley on Wednesday evening
would have filed the bill COM
pletely, so far as we are concerned.
The storm seems to have been
general west of the Missouri River.
The value of a weather prophets
predictions must be found in their
literal fulfllment at the appointed
time. It will never do to predict a
storm in July, and then delay the
business into August. at the same
time, if Virgins can come within
three days Of guessing the hour Of
such a storm as that Of Wednesday
night, he will not be without use
falness in the world.

AS ILLUSTRATING the reckless
manner in which the public money
Is squandered lawfully, member
of Congress, the other day, in the
course of some remarks on the
naval appropriation bill, stated there
were 125 officers in the navy pay de-
partmenJ, Of whom twenty-five re-
ceive $4,000 as salary, fifty receive
$4,000 and afty get $4,000. These
officers pay an average Of eighty
eight persons each, and the disburse-
ments Of each amount to only
$5s,4O0 a year. The cost of paying
officers and sailors of the navy is
equal to FIVE per cent. of the total
SUM disbursed. The large majority
Of the officers in the pay department
are sinecures, filed by society pets
and relatives and friends of those
in authority.
