Isabella 8. Carnagy to step up aud in.
Mr.. Carnagy was the postmaster before
Mr.. Benson was appointed. Now lei

Mrs. Benson succeed her and honors

WE hope the Managers of the Ferris
Reform School will be as expeditions
as possible and get the school in opera
ton by the time the November court
meets. There will be boys tried at that
court who ought not to be sent to jail,
where they will only become worse and
are not fit TO be turned loose upon socie-
ty. A reform school OF some kind to
which they should be sent is the only
hope OF their redemption.

From the Bismarck journal.
One of the great industries of North
Dakota is the cattle interest. Six years
ago it was in its infancy. Nine years ago
Custer fought over the ground now oc-
cnpied by our cattle ranges. The value
of the cattle shipment from Northern Da-
kota and Eastern Montana last year was
over $4,000, 900. The wheat crop of the
territory is alone greater than this inter
est. From all accounts the stock passed
through the winter with an unusually
light percentage of loss. William G..
Badger and II. 5. Parkin were in the city
yesterday. Both are largely engaged in
stOckgrowing. Mr.. Badger, who feeds
his stock during the severcst weather.
says he fed for scyenty-iivc days, using
one ton and n quarter of hay per head.
The hay cost him 81 per ton, but can be
put up for less money. Therefore the
cost of wintering stock in this region, even
where stock is fed, is less than So per
head. In many instances the stock shit
for themselves during the entire winter.
This is true ofnearly all Of the great stock
interests. The interest is growing every
year, and the bad lands OF Dakota are
likely to become the most valuable por-
ton of the territory when the magnitude
ofthe interest occupying them is consid-
cred.

Sham Work.

Eight tenement buildings lie in ruins in
New York because the brick walls were laid
in sand and not In mortar. The contractor
who built them has been notorious for years
for doing sham work, yet he has managed
until now to escape prosecution, either be-
cause the officers of the bureau whose duty
1t is TO Inspect buildings were negligent, or
because he had influence which rendered
them purposely blind to what he was doing.
1t is PROBABLY fortunate for people who in
habit New York tenement houses that the
crash came when 1t did, for he was doing a
brisk business, and in a few years hun
dreds OF people would have been confined in
his death traps, to wake Up some windy
night to find themselves crushed and mutila-
ted beneath pile Of bricks and timbers.
His career is probably ended, and the exper-
iment of laying bricks in sand is not likely
to be repeated.
But what this builder was doing hundreds
of other builders, and artisans of various
kinds, are doing all over the country year
after year, though not usually in 80 pro-
nounced fashion. 1t is rare that one is
found 80 reckless as TO construct walls that
cannot sustain the weight of the floor tim
beFs, but plenty of houses burn down every
year from chimneys rendered defective by
the carelessness of workmen, and many
deaths occur annually that are traceable to
drainage made defective by the sham work
of the men employed and paid to see that
1t is perfecr. Paint and putty and plaster
cover up vast amount of slip-shod work in
the modern dwelling house, and the worst
OF it is that the defects thus concealed are
generally not discoverable until it is too late.
When the house burns down it is found that
there was hole in the chimney, and when
a malignant disease breaks out among the
inmates it is ascertained that some pipe
which should have carried off the exh4la-
lions Of the sewer into the open air was not
tight. aud the poisonous gases have been
pervading the house and gradually under
mining the health of the occupants.

Sir Peter Lumsden's report of the recent
battle at Pendjeh is not expected to reach
London for week yet. Meanwhile the
ministry will remain in doubt in regard to
the correctness of Gen. Komaroff's assertion
that the battle was brought on by the AT
ghans and not by the Russians. Until that
point is settled it is not likely that England
will declare war, not at any rate unless the
Russians make further hostile demonstra-
tioLs on the disputed frontier. The delay,
should war be the final outcome, will be
largely to the advantage of the Russians.
The Russian troops already within striking
distance OF Herat are undoubtedly considera-
BILE in number aud in weeks time they will
probably be largely augmented. If war
comes, therefore, Russia is likely to have
troops enough to capture that town before
the English can possibly relieve it. HeTat
is very important strategic point and with
the Russians Ia possession the task before
the British will be greatly enhanced. The
English people recognizing the danger and
firmly believing that the Russians are prac-
ticing deceit and that the recent movement
on Pendieh was secretly ordered from st.
Petersburg are, naturally enough, impatient
of the governments delay and inclined to
criticise Gladstone's course. 1t is difficult
to see, however, how the government could
justify itself in declaring war for an act
which Russia disclaims responsibility for I'm
til it has it in its power to show that Rus
sia's disclaimer is false.

Mr.. Kelley Of Richmond, who has been
appointed minister to Italy, is not likely to
meet with very cordial reception when he
sets foot in the Eternal City. Some years ago
be denounced Victor Emanuel as a usurper
and pronounced the union of the country un-
der him an outrage and calamity. The
Italian minister in Washington is already
making fuss over Mr.. Keiley's appoint
ment, and iniimatiug that the Italian minis-
ter of foreign affairs will not receive him.
The recent trouble between Minister Sar-
gent and Bismarck showed pretty conclu-
sively that an American minister unless on
good terms with the government to which he
is accredited is not likely to be very
useful official, no matter whether he is in
the right or not. Mr.. Kelley may be good
man, and under different circumstances
might be an efficient minister, but his rela-
lions with court which he has publicly de-
nouoced in violent language are likely to be
altogether too much strained.

Mayor Deering told the merchants yester-
day that if they wanted taxation reduced
some way could be found to do it. 1t goes
without saying, we think, that every mer-
chant in Portland wants taxation reduced,
and every other person who owns property
in Portland as well. Mayor Deering, there
fore, should Immediately set himself to
work to discover some way by which to re-
duce it. Perhaps it is the tax rate, how
ever, and not the amount of money to be
raised, that Mayor Deering is SO certain
that can be reduced. His plan of raising the
valuation would do that. We are inclined to
think that there will be some lively kicking
on the part of real estate owners if that
plan is attempted.
