The Capital.


The Journal visited the capital with Hon. G..
A. Van Wormer, of Barnes county, on Tuesday.
The building was inspected from dome to base
ment. Mr.. Van WOrmer said: ut is easy
enough to see what became of Bismarck's one
hundred thousand dollars. No one who has
sense enough to realize it, or integrity suffi-
cient to lead him to admit the TRUTH will ever
question the good faith of Bismarck in this
capital matter. 1t is very different building
from what the people of this territory have
been led to expect, judging from the newspa-
per reports. 1t is far more creditable in every
respect" The main building will be fully
completed and ready for the territorial officers
inside of ten days. The secretary and treasnr-
er of the territory, now at Yankton, will then
move to Bismarck, and Bismarck will then be
the capital in every sense of the word.-Bis-

Remarkable Intelligence and Hero
ism of n DOr


The large Newfoundland dog, Heck, belong
ing to the st. Elmo Hotel in the oil town of
Eldred, Pa, was known throughout the north
ern oil field for its great strength and almost
human intelligence. The porter Of the hotel,
kind hearted but Incorporate person, was an
especial favorite with the dog. The porter, a
small man, slept in little room back Of the
office. The dog slept in the office. On the
night Of September 18th last, the porter was
drunk when he went to bed, and soon fell into
heavy sleep. Some time in the night lie was
awakened by the loud barking of Heck, who
was jumping frantically on the porter's bed
and seizing the pillow with his teeth. The
still druken and drowsy porter tried to drive
the dog away, but the animal persisted in his
efforts, and it finally dawned on the befuddIed
mind Of the porter that the house was Oh fire.
His room was full Of smoke, and he could
hear the cracking OF the flames. He sprang
from the bed, but was still SO drunk that he
fell to the floor. The faithful dog at once
seized him by the coat collar, the porter not
having removed his clothing on going to bed,
and dragged him out Of the room and half way
to the outer door of the Office, when the man
succeeded in getting to his feet, and, unlocking
the door, staggered into the street. The fire
was rapidly spreading over the building, and
the hotel was filled with guests, not one Of
whom had been aroused. The dog no sooner
saw that his helpless friend was safe than he
dashed back into the house and ran barking
loudly upstairs.
He first stopped at the door of his master 8
room, where he howled and scratched at the
door until the inmate was made aware of the
danger and hurried out Of the house, as there
was no time to lose. The dog gave the alarm
at every door, and in some instances conducted
guests down stairs to the outer door, each one
Of these, however, being stranger in the
house, which fact the dog seemed to under.
stand In looking out for their safety. All about
the house seemed to have lost their heads in
the excitement, and it is said that the hotel dog
alone preserved complete control over himself,
and alone took active measures to save the in
mates Of the house. In and out of the burn
ing building he kept continually dashing, pilot
ing some half dressed man or woman down
stairs only to at once return in search of Others
Once lady with a child in her arms tripped on
the stairs while hurrying out, and fell to the
bottom. The child was thrown on the floor
Of the hall some distance away. The woman
regained her feet, and staggered in dazed
way out Of the door, leaving the child in the
midst Of the smoke that was pouring from the

Opening OF Great Grain Regions.

Opening OF Great Grain Regions.
Russia has resolved to develop her system of
railway communication on an enormous scale,
and for this purpose has just contracted loan
of $50, 100000, to be expended during the next
few years. India has built lines of railway
penetrating the furthest provinces. Australia
has also made long strides in the same direc-
ton. Next in order is the Argentine Confede-
ration, in South America, which is building
four additional trunk lines of railroad at cost
Of $2S,0O0,000, to connect Buenos Ayres her
principal seaport, with the vast grainaries
opening up in the pampas of the interior. In
every case the ultimate purpose is to overcome
all inpediments in reaching the central grain
markets Of Europe. And in spite Of all this,
says the British Trade Journal, American grain
spectators continue their efforts to artifcially
maintain the price Of wheat, as though there
were great deficiency in the supply of the
world, and the nations would eventually have
to come to them begging the privilege of being
allowed to purchase some of their surplus.

the Sth inst, say: For the period Of fourteen
weeks Of this crop year ending on Saturday,
the exports Of wheat from Atlantic ports and
California were 100000 bushels. The
amount consumed is estimaed as having been
$4,000, 900 bushels by 55,00O,OO Of people, or
at the rate Of about i, 800 900 buohels per week.
Since July the visible supply has increased

Of the crop of 5O4, ,OOO, 900 bushels consumed or
otherwise disposed Of, 126, 500, 900 bushels, or
at rate that will dispose of 46S, ,OOO 900 bushels
by the end Of the crop year without regard to
the probable increase in consumption and
shipments during the winter months. Added
to this total, there will be $4,000, 600 bushels
required for seed, which would indicate that
$40, ,00l 900 bushels will he necessary to fill tho
requirements. This is the indication upon the
showing at this time, which of course Is sub
ject to considerable modification in the future.
The stocks Of the country are moderate; the

Mr.. E. N. Curl has solved the problem of
raising flax this far north. He has furnished
us with a sample Of forty acres which he has
raised this season on sod. The flax was sown
in June, and was harvested just after his wheat
thus not interfering in any way with that crop.
The yield was about ten bushels to the acre,
the amount Of seed sown being half bushel
to the acre. 1t was treated in all respects the
same as wheat. 1t was threshed by Mills Il
Logan, and is, just as it came from the ma
chine, as clean as seed usually purchased from
the store. Mr.. Curl propose to hold his flax
seed till next spring, when he will sell it in
small Quantities to such farmers as may desire
to try flax as an experiment. Mr.. Curl also
raised forty bushels of buckwheat from an
acre and half OF land sown,

The Danville Investigation.

WASHINGTON, March 5.-This morning
the Danville committee called j. G. Fowler,
(white,) late Of Bristol, Va, was chairman in
his county of the readiuster committee, and
is now clerk of the United States court at
Abingdon, Va. He identified the letter cir
cular, current in his neighboreood previous
to the election. 1t declared that race con-
flict had been wrought about at Danville, and
Malone was responsible for it. a telegram
from Danville was appended to the circular
saying, we are standing in our doors with
guns, protecting our families. Post this up
at the court house door, (signed) ?. n. Rob
inson. The witness said there was no effort
on the part Of the Democratic party to reduce
the issue to the question, are you Niger or
are YOU white man? The witness had
never seen such intensity of feeling,
since the firing on Fort Sumpter, as was ere
ated by the circulars and reports were put
out by the Democrats.
Senator Vance protested against the admis-
sion of evidence of this character, the circu-
lation of fly circulars and political reports.
The witness was stationed at the polls dur
ing the day of election, and considered his
life in danger. 1t was his duty to challenge
votes. The Democrats had taken possession
of the windows through which the challeng
ing must be done Witness was forced to
stand behind the Democrats and challenge
over their shoulders. Every challenge gave
rise to much abuse on the part of the Demo
Gratis. Witness was publicly included and
two or three times assaulted on election days.
On one occasion he was rescued by the Dem
ocratic officials.

Burlington Gazette: PROHIBITION is with US.
The first effect will be largely diminished
municipal treasures and something like fifty
per cent increase of court expenses for the
people of the counties, if the Republican
party makes serious attempt to enforce the
law. In all probability until the people re-
bel and overthrow the Republican party the
prin ipal blessings from prohibition will be
found to consist in untaxed liquors and in
creased, taxation to pay court expenses.
At present there are sixty-nine saloons in
Burlington, which yield revenue from Ii
censes of 1900. These licenses expire
May LIST, and with them the license, so far as
they relates TO this business. 1t now be-
comes the duty of the council to adopt some
measure to extend the licenses until July 4,
when the prohibitory law goes into effect.
What the saloon keepers will do after that
time remains to be seen, but it is generally
believed by those who regard the law as a
farce that the number of saloons will not be
diminished
