General Grants death seems to he
question of but few hours.
Since the summer of 1881. when
President Garfield was lying between
life and death, the American people
have passed no such anxious period
as the present time. 1t is proper
that the American people should be
anxious about the health Of General
Grant; their anxiety is but his just
due. Not only the people of his own
country but also the people of the
world are interested in the bulletins
which issue from the generals resi-
dence in New York City.
For. the knowledge of the name
of Grant is not confined within
the limits of the United
States: no soldier ever re-
ceived more convincing proof of
universal esteem than did the COM
mander of army of the Poto-
mac. when he made his famous tour
of the world.
His fame is confined only by the
limits of the earth, and throughout
civilization and standardization. the
news Of his suffering causes sorrow,
and his restoration to health is de-
voutly wished.

THE Sun. last week, in an article

man who felt con.il lent of being able

ing. There is still room left in this
neighborhood for settlers, but,
strange AS it may appear, everybody
in the world doesn't know it. 1t is
possible that there are, at least, one
or two families on various portions
of the earth who are not SO happy ut
home but that their condition might
be improved by Il residence in
Stevens County, Granting the pos
sibility of the existence of even one
such family, it MAY be that that fam
lily has never heard of Stevens Coun.
ty; it would not be very surprising
if they had not. They will in all
probability discover our existence
when they settle in some neighbor-
ing county which has had the enter
prise to make its own existence
known. Wake up, gentlemen This
county and this village have by no
means yet reached perfect develop
ment We have not yet arrived at Il
stage of prosperity beyond which it
would lie dangerous to advance for
fear Of becoming too luxurious. Nor
is either the county or the village so
crowded that there is any immediate
danger of suffocation.

Sill Safe.

Some four and half weeks have
elapsed since the introduction of u
Democratic administration and still
wonderful to relate the country is
quiet and peaceful and business is
pounding along just the same as form
erly, with a slight degree of i'm
provement. In fact, every body
seems to be IN a peaceful frame of
mind, and HONEST men generally
commend the new president. What
thoes false prophets will do, when
another election comes around, who
prophesied last fall to the people that
if Il democratic president was elected
all manner of Ills would overtake us
rs a nation, is hard to tell. The
fact is .sthe world do move" and the
day for that kind of assumption has
passed. If the Republican party
ever again Is restored to power 1t
must work some other racket and
seek out some other issue besides the
ones it has SO industriously used for
the past twenty years. The Public
faith in the oracles of the g-o-p is
fast being crushed out by the honest,
wise and liberal policy Of the present
administration. Even its most bit
ter enemies are compelled to respect
it, and instead Of the disaster the
people were told would come, moth
ing but peace. prosperity and honest
administration Of affairs of the gov
ernment has as yet been seen. The
lies Of the campaign cliques are be.

and "what the Democratic party will
do if they gain power will never be

We call upon every citizen TO aid

scour the village. We believe the

sincere desire to do it's duty. The

pleasant one, and it is incumbent
upon every member of the CON-
munity who has due regard for
the public health. to- render to the
board whatever assistance it lies in
his power to render. The ch,ler,s
appears to have a desire to come west
and grow up with the country. anu
If the people OF Morris are anxioas
for that kind Of an immigrant they
can possibly secure it by interfering
with the methods which the bvlrd Of

allowing the village to remain in its
