An Incendlary.

A dastardly attempt was made on
Monday evening of this week to burn
w. Wunseh's saloon building. The
wood-be fire.bug piled boxes against
the building, filled them with hay
and shavings and set fire to them.
The fire was discovered almost inn
mediately and extinguished, else with
the hard wind blowing at the time
the whole business portion Of the
village and probably a number of resis
denees would soon have been In ashes.
Daniel McCrory had been thrust out
of the saloon short time before, be-
cause of his ugliness, and is suspected
as being the guilty party: He was
arrested few minutes after the set
ting of the fire AID is now in custody,
If he is shown to be guilty, he should
be punished to the full extent of the
law. There are places in the world,
where man guilty Of such an act
would be strung up to the nearest
lamp post we are not quite sure
but what such depraved nets deserve
Just such heroic treatment.
Laters McCrory had a preliminary
examination before Justice Hutchins
this morning, and upon evidence
given was held to appear before tie
grand jury at the next term ofdistrict
! court. He was given until 2 o'clock
this afternoon to obtain 100000 bail
and unless he obtains it will be COM
mitted.

Never do business ION the sly" If
you are ashamed Of your business,
get out of it as soon as possible, and
if you are proud oft, let it be known.
You may have big bargains in store
for the people, but it will do them
little good until they find it out. The
people read the papers and are looking
them over carefully every week, to
see whether you have anything
to offer or not. They have no reason
to infer that you have, unless you say
80 and the place to "say so" is in the
advertising columns of the paper they
read. There Is where they are look
ing for an invitation to come and see
you. They recognize the fact that no
honest man will advertise that which
he cannot perform, and if you do not
advertise at all, they very naturally
infer that you are not prepared to per,
form very much and will be very apt
to give their attention and patronage
to those enterprising tradesmen who
| have inducements to offer and who
| solicit their patronage through the
papers they read. Montevideo Leader

The Fair passes into the history OF
the county as u success. AS Is well
known the Agricultural Society had
no funds to work with and has been
compelled to depend entirely upon
money raised by private parties suo-
scriptions. With the meagre amounts
thus placed at its disposal, the Socie-
ty accomplished a great deal, much
more than was expected. This coun-
~ has now re-instated itself in the
favor of the state and will be entitled
to it's full share of next years appro-
priations and the Fairs Of the future
will be much better than any ever
held here in the past.
Charles Wintcrmute's driving horse
was judged to be y, No. l. Here we
rise to remark, also, that Mr.. Winter
mute did most of the work of solicit
ing and collecting subscriptions and
to his efforts much of the success of
the Fair is due.
The TRIBUNE is informed that a
number of gentlemen who subscribed
to the Fair fund, when called upon to
pay, offered to give more than the
amount subscribed by them. Such
generosity is not often seen. AL
though these additional amounts are
not needed and were refused, the lib
erality of the men who offered them
is appreciated and commended.
All premiums are or soon will be
paid in full. Owing to the embarras-
sing lack of funds, no very great pre-
mlums were offered, but such as were
offered will be paid without discount
or delay.

much has been said. But, while the

in the future. The state should APP
propriate another hundred thousand

improvements and additions to the
buildings ana then the management
should plan and carry on thirty day

is an enterprise in which the whole
Northwest is interested and should be
made to reflect all of its greatness. In
fine, it should eclipse all similar ex-
nibitions upon the continent.
In thinly populated districts where
there is little cultivation OF the land,
prairie fires are always an almost una
voidable source of danger to life and
property, but in country like Mime
sofa and parts of Dakota, where every
section of land, at least, has farm
house upon it, destruction by prairie
fire is generally the result of careless
ness and negligence. These fires
nearly always originate from careless
ness and the failure to take the sinlp-
lest measures of precaution. A few
burrows turned by the pillow around a
grain field or farm house is no pro-
lection when q fire is travelling under
the fierce impetus of high wind. The
strip of plowed ground should he wide
enough to make it impossible for the
flames to leap across. Many farmers
have seen the results ofseveral years
of hard pioneer toll swept away in a
few moments, simply because the
safeguards against prairie fires were
totally lacking or Insufficient i'll extent
In districts liable to fires of this
nature the Importance of ample pre-
cautions for safety should be univer-
sally recognized, when undoubted
authority shows that out of every
eight losses from prairie fires IN the
state of Minnesota seven have been
the result of gross negligence, and
could have been easily provided
against.-Evening Journal.

wAsutNoroN, DC, Jan. 14.-Thean-
nouncement that two wills, purporting
to be those Of Mrs. Afyra Gaines,
had been filed with the courts at New
Orleans, it is believed will complicate
some of the suits now being presented in
her name. It is said by the friends in
Washington OF Mrs. Gaines, that the will
dated January 5 is tho genuine over that
purporting to be dated January Sth, in
asmuch as It was known that the distin-
guished lady was very i'll during the last
day or two Of her life, and unable to sign
such document. Again, Mr.. Christmas,
her son.in.law, who is named as one Of
the executors OF the first will, has been for
years her adviser in matters OF business,
and has been her constant companion
whenever she went out OF the house. The
quarrel among the heirs will, tits thought,
cause almost as much litigation as the
original suits OF Mrs. Gaines herself.
