Counterfeit $50 bills of the Broad
way National bank, New York, are in
circulation. They were made in Ger
many, and are good ones.
Professor and Harriet Beecher
Stowe yesterday expressed the hope
that Blaine would be elected as they
had known him personally for thirty
years and had entire confidence in
his personal and political honesty.
In the early part of the century
the Jeffersonian democracy was put in
power by the people because they sus-
pected the federalists of pandering to
British interests. Now every British
journal favors democratic success. and
the people will treat that party as they
did the federalists.
John Ferguson, late cashier of
the Brunswick hotel, Denver, Col,
has been keeping company with a Mrs
{. A. Gould several months. A week
ago he married another lady. Yester-
day he meJ Mrs Gould, who drew a
bulldog revolved and shot him three
times. Ferguson will die.
The cholera is spreading rapidly,
and it Is not at all improbable that it
may reach our shores within a short
time. A Paris dispatch says that the
disease in that city is assuming amost
violent character, nearly all the vic
tins dying suddenly. In Marselles
S14 deaths have already occuerred.
"A California wheat field got afre
last Monday, and before the fire could
be subdued six thousand acres of grain
and several fine farm houses were des-
troYed. Two thousand men were call
ed out by telegraph and telephone
and all fought fire with a will, and fl
nally conquered.
"A terrible storm of wind, rain and
hail swept over Southern Dakota last
Monday afternoon, and great damage
was done to the crops while many
houses were more or less damaged and
few small ones entirely DESTROYED.
The storm extended into Southern
Minnesota where it was no less des-
tructive.
The Minnesota editors are going
TO visit the head of the lake next
Wednesday, and the Duluth Tribune
proposes TO stuff them so full of "South
Duluth lies" that they will never re-
coyer. Don't be afraid to show your
visitors around the bay, and let them
see, rather than depend upon what
they hear from Duluth tongues.
-Murat Halstead beautifully says:
senator Henry 3. Payne, coal oil
monopolist, telegraphed ex-Sheritf
Cleveland that he was joyful. That
was right. Two souls with but a sim
gle thought, two hearts that are oiled
rs one. The common touch of the
same lubricator makes a bond of I'M
ion through which the electricity of
politics flows.
Theodore Roosevelt, the young
retormer in New York, has declared
most emphatically for Blaine and
Logan, and claims that no man who
took part in the convention that
nominated those men has a right to
oppose them This is hard lick AT
Curtis. He was distinguished leader
of the independents. The number of
this class who will oppose Blaine will
be very small.
An official statement which Wis
conSin people ought to have great
pride III remembering, is going the
rounds in form Us follows: During
the civil war, Wisconsin furnished
II, 3l9 men, an excess of 1858 over
the number apportioned to her under
various calls for troops
With such a record as that star
ing them in the face, how silly it
sounds to hear Democrats talk about
carrying the state of Wisconsin for
Cleveland and Hendricks.
