IOWA / MINNESOTA NORTHERN.
The ADVANCE spoke of this road
last week as projected from the State
line im Jackson northward. The VIM
dom papers throw some light on the
proposed road. The Citizen says:
The gentleman, Mr.. IIubbell, son Of
one of the directors of the road, said
the road would surely be built tins sea-
son through Cottonwood county from
Wilmar to Spirit Lake, and that some
Of the officials would visit Window
during the coming week and give their
plans.
The -r1',.te. Ms u 9l;.,see-at the map
shows, is 4 straight north and south
ber line, passing through Redwood
Falls, Samborn and Window. through
Jackson county to connect with Fort
Dodge road ut Spirit Lake. Mr.. Hubl@l
gave assurance that this is no ''paper"
railroad l.ut an actual fact, and grad
ing will commence as soon as the line
is lncated to Spirit Lake, and the cars
will run before snow flies next fall.
The Reporter says:
Since the above was in type the party
has returned. Mr.. Louis 8. Huhbell, a
>r of J B. Hubbell, formerly Of Man
katn. and in ;.nu interview with Mr..
Huhb-il W. fi,rl that the proposed road
is the Iowa & Minnesota Northern, in.
corp,rat-d under lie laws of Iowa and
Minnesota, and to run from Spirit Lake

gun about three weeks agn. It is ex-
prct-t! to btgin grazing at Spirit Lake
within the next three weeks. The en-
gim-ers are now in this county, and

POETRY AND fENT

The fact that Alfred Tennyson, the
poet, had been made Il Baron was an
nounced in the ADVANCE at the time.
Below is an item from the London
Standard telling what the poet had to
endure before taking his seat in the
House Of Lords. Tennyson, by sheer
force of his genius, has made a million
dollars III property and been raised to
the peerage. Young poets make a
note OF it and send In your spring po-
etry:
In the House of Lords yesterday Ba.
ron TennysOn took the oath and his
seat with the customary fOrmalities.
The noble Lord was introduced by the
Duke of Argyll and the Earl of Ken

Gle, tl- Earl Of Midtown, Lord Lyttle-
ton and Lord Balfour, of Burlejgh.
Lord Tennyson was attired in his
peers robes, AS were also his introducers
in their robes. and together they slowly

turned to the bar, and thence was COLI

GENERAL RU7'LER.

Some of our friends laughed at US for
making the following prediction four
months ago, in our issue of January
10th:
II the Democrats nominate Ben But.
Ter and the "Tiger' JOINS with them,
Ben will be the next President.
The term "Tiger' was used simply
as the name applied 20 years ago to
certain striking and protesting labor
elements, and not in any disrespectful
sense. Now nearly the whole work
ingmen element of the country is Or
ganized and shO wing an activity and a
power never manifested before as sep
arate organizations.
Recent conventions and expressions
from these bodies show that Butler is
their choice for President, and thus far
the Greenback conventions held have
declared for Butler.
But will the Democrats nominate
him and can all the elements be united
upon one man? The indications are
that they cannot. The Democrats,
judging from present Outgivings, will
not take Butler. The elements oppos-
I'd to the Republicans will be divided
and the success Of the Republican CAN
didate will he assured.

PRESIDENTlAL FORECASTS.

PRESIDENTIAL FORECASTS.
The forecasts of the ADVANCE con-
corning the political situation, have
been very generally justified by the
State, District and County conventions
which have been held throughout the
country. These were:
l. That Blaine was the popular choice
Of the Republicans and that if a nomi-
mating or primary election could be
held, Blaine would undoubtedly he the
nominee.
2. That Lincoln was the almost uni
vorsal choice for the second place on the
ticket. (rhis very general desire to
give Lincoln the second place may re-.
suit in his securing the first place, if
Blaine cannot be nominated on the first
two or three ballots.)
The Lincoln and HI. wiley ticket urg-
ed by some is strong one, being im AL
most every respect available and un"b-
jectionable, and stands III excellent
chance Of being nominated III the
event of Blaiue's failure.
8. That LOgan Was il. 40 considerable.
degree the choice Of the Republicans.
and chat he could not be elected. His
boom fell even fatter than We ex.
pected.)
4. That Arthur WAS preferred by the
more conservative. n"n-partizah ele-
ment, and that Edmunds had 10 large
following in the west. I'VE confess,
however, that Edmunds has shown
more strength in securing delegates
than we anticipated.)

How Watch Cases are Made.

This process Of ofmanufacture was invented
by James Boss, who started in business in
1854, and the methods and tools used in
making these watch cases are covered by
patents. This is tie only vasek case made
under this process. For many years the in
PRODUCTION of these goods was slow, owing
topopular prejudice against "plated" goods,
but gradually the public learned that. the
James Boss Gold Watch Cdse was not =
cheap gold-rashed or electro1plated article,
but was made Of gena;.e gold plates Of
standard quality and thickness. Conscientious
adherence to the determination to make
the best watch case ever put on the market,
and the adoption of every improvement
suggested, has made the James Boss Gold
Watch Case the STANDARD. ,..r ~ x.,x
In this watch case the parts q q
most subject to wear-the boz, crors, hinges,

cess. They held their meetings, ma

yonngster was afraid his mother would
suffer too much, and the captain to
satisfy him. agreed to try to poison the
girl first. If she died easily, then the
mother must follow. The servant girl
happened to hear the agreement and in.

was that each particular member of
