WOMAN'S INFLUENCE on SOCIETY

A Lecture on Social Customs, and a Plea
for an American Salon.
New York Letter.
Mr.. Maurice Minton, well known
society literary man, gave lecture on
Society" at Chickenng Hall last even
ing. The lecturer began by saying
thst woman has the greatest influence
on society, and then gave a long his
torlcal and critical review of society,
and especially of the salon, and lastly
turned his attention to American socl-
ETY.. He made strong plea for the
establishment of the salon in America,
saying: "When l speak of the salon,
do not mean those gatherings where a
paper is read to edify the few and bore
the many. | mean democracy-a
confederation of intellectual States,
whose representatives arethe lawyer,
the doctor, the scientist, the sculptor,
the painter, the novellst, the banker,
tho merchant, and last, but first, the
cultivated woman . of society. 1t
would be surprising how many clever
men and women would come forward
it would be more surprising to note
how the popular currents of tloug hit
would set out all over the land and
carry new, elevating and refining ideas
into little obscure country towns.
Our society nowadays is aimless.
1t demands nothing of its members ex-
cept that they shall prove themselves
amiab|e adjuncts, well versed in the
subtle mysterie Of German figures,
Boston dips, and the polka. A new
figure in the German makes a dude a
hero. There are many cultivated and
charming people in this city who,
through the appreciation of this fact,
have altogether fallen out of the race.
American society, where this class is
withdrawn, is composed of three sets,
one of which goes to be seen, one which
goes for fear of being fcr-otetn,
and one which goes because it is new
sensation. This third has generally
paid high price for admission. Serl-
ously, the grave question of this coun-
try's future rests mainly with its wo-
men. In every direction where wo-
mans influence in society has been
rightly felt the community has been
benefited. Hospitals, institutions for
the relief of the poor, old and ri ipencd
industries created to assist the needy,
are the direct results Of woman's 5 atfec
ton, which has given her a broad and
generous consideration for the woes of
all mankind. We may feel proud of
our American women, and we NAV
trust contidingly to them the future Of
this country

SWcet.Minded Women.

So great is the influence of sweet
minded woman on those around her
that it is almost boundless. 1t is to
her that friends come in seasons G.
sickness and sorrow for help and COM
fort. One soothing touch of her
kindly hands works wonders in the
feversh child; few words let fall
from her lips in the ear of a sorrowluI
sister do much to raise the load of
grief that is bowing its victim down
to the dust in anguish. The husband
comes home worn out vith the pres,
sure of business and feeling irritable
with the world in general; but when
he enters the cosy sitting room and
sees the blaze Of the bright fire and
meets his wife's smiling face, he sue
cumbs IN a moment to the soothing
influences, which act as the balm of
Gilead to his wounded spirit. We
all are wearicd with combating with
the stern realities of life. The rough
schoolhoy flies in "a rage from the
taunts Of his companions to find SOL
ace in the mothers smile; the little
one, full of grief with its OWN large
trouble, finds Il haven of rest on its
mothers breast; and SO one might 90
on with instances of the influence a
sweet minded woman has in the So
cial life with which she is connected.
Beauty is an insignificant power W hen
compared with hers.

The Dakota Legislature.

The coming session of the Dakota
legislature promises to be an interest,
ing one, and lawyers, county officials,
business men and others throughout the
Territory will be especially interested in
the daily proceedings. The daily Tri.
bune will publish the full proceedings
Of both branches daily, having assigned
experienced reporters for this service,
The daily will be sent to any address
during the entire session for 81. All
who remit before January l will re.
ceive the daily from that date to the
close of the session. The weekly will
cost so cents.
The Tribune is a morning paper, and
is therefore prepared to give the pro,
ceedlngs in a much more complete
form than it has been possible to give
them heretofore. Money should be
sent by postal note or check to the

something for Dakota. The small vote
cast for the Democracy in Dakota last
November might be largely increased if
the Democratic house would show itself
worthy of Endorsement by rising above
the partizanship which excludes Dakota
from the sisterhood of states. We have
no idea, however, that the Democratic
house is sufficiently broad-gaged to be-
come equal to the emergency.

Jubilant,
MinnewaukAn Sifdnns,

This morning about 9 o'clock, the in
spring spectacle was presented to the
denizens of this community of a huge
column of black smoke rolling heaven
ward in the southern horizon from the
construction engine, on which their eyes
Toasted with keen enthusiasm. Here
was occular proof to all that the Gears
were coming!' 1t was certainly a splen-
did scene to witness after such a pro-
tracted and tedious waiting. 1t was a
proud moment for Minnewaukan, and
a. the black mass of smoke rose and fell
beyond the gentle undulating knobs that
melt away in the distance to the south
ward of this bouyant young capital city,
it awakened the most respondent mind
into a newness of life and overwhelmed
all with a fresh and irresistible baptism
of faith as to the future probabilities in
store for both town and county. The
smoke of the engine is now daily seen
from our business houses and dwellings,
and it is highly probable that when the
road gets in next week, the town will be
painted q significant and vigorous car.

Ia INQUIRIES ANSWER.

judi q Moure's answer TO Mr.. will
sons contest complaint is just about
what might have been expected. After
reciting numerous frauds in Walsh
and, Pembina counties, the answer closes
with this gross libel and deliberate in
suit to thevoters of Ramsey counI ty
That included among the maiiorities
and apparent majorities received by you
rWillson] at divers of the election pre-
cincts in said district at said election was
and is an apparent majority in yol IF favor
of tweny-one votes at the precin| ct of De
Groat, in the county Of Ramsey in said
district. That said last named apparent
majority was not and Is not q real, .true
and correct majority, nor can ! he same
be counted for you for the re- ason that
no true or just canvass has ever been
made of the votes cast at said election
in said precinct by the precinc t board OF
canvassers, M has any returIl thereof,
nor of any pretended canvass thereof
been made to the proper omcei'or board,
nor to any one; nor is it know n, nor can
it be known, from any true arid authori-
tative source what was the actual vote'of
said precinct.
This part of LaMoure's answer is
based upon the fact that there was a
trivial informality in the return from
DeGroat precinct. The vote from that
precinct, however, was received and
'canvassed by the board of ~canvassers Of
this county, according to law, which
provides that canvassing board shall
not refuse the vote of any precinct for
any informAlity. Had the district can
wasting board obeyed the law, and re-
fused to exclude the vote of Pembina
county because there was alleged infor'
mality in regard to the returns from
two precincts in that county, Mr.. Will.
SON, who received a majority o fthe votes
in the district, would now hold the COR.
ti6cate that was. given La Moure by
means the result of the most shameful
fraud.
No honest man familiar with the facts
can or will question the legality of the
vote of De Groat precinct. The In
Moure gang, however, claim fraud be.
cause Wilson received 80 majority in
that precinct out of q total vote of IS.

and that record is now on file in the

claims that no return of the vote of that
precinct vas made, he simply ~sustains
his reputation for falsehood and chi
canery, and the men who are backing
him up in his claim display their ability
as shyster politicians and unworthy cit
liens.

DISCLAIMER.

Hansbrough, of the@Devils Lake IN
TER-OCEAN, with characteristic malice,
attempts to show that the success Of the
Hon Jud La Moure in the Twelfth dis
trict is intensely desired by the Bis
marck ring and corrupt politicians. Bis
marck has not the least interest in the
case. In fact, on the face of the affair, 1t
seems to those who have looked into the
matter that La Moure has a hard case.
The justice of throwing out the vote of
the largest county in the district on q
mere technicality is tosay theleast ques-
tionable, and while Nj. La Moure may
take his seat on the certificate issued to
him it does not follow that he will hold
it any considerable length of time If his
contestant brings the matter in proper
shape before the legislature, Bismarck
Tribune.
We gladly give space to the Tribune's
disclaimer. 1t is the first thing we have
seen in that journal condemning the
gross outrage, and the Tribune being
constrained to denounce it, there is
shine hope that the bismarck ring and
corrupt politicians" whose organ the
Tribune is reported to be, may finally
conclude to see that Wilson gets the
seat. Bro. Jewell cannot deny, how.
ever, that the personal and political re
lations hitherto existing between Lis
Moure, Mckenzie, Walsh, Ordway
Hughes and others who compose the
Bismarck ring" and the disposition o.
certain "ring" papers 1.-THE Tribune nou
excepted) to defend the canvassine
boards and compliment La Moure
would seem to fully justify the charge
that there is a feeling of satisfaction
among the political bandits over Ii
Moure's success. The INTER- OCEAN pro
poses to closely watch the progress anc
final outcome of the contest. If the
bismarck ring and corrupt politicians
refuse to aid La Moure in his efforts
to steal Wilson's seat, we shall give
them credit for the first honest politica.
act in their lives. We are prepared t.
be surprised.
