The Spanish Mission.

Mr.. Bayard attaches no weight tt
the foolish attempt to raise stil
about Minister Curry's religious
views. His only reply to the ques
ton as to the propriety of Hending 8
leader representative of the BaptIs'
faith to q country where the Catholic
faith prevails is this: "We have nc
religious tests in this country, and
certainly not in the State Depart'
rnent Of the government"
The people who ara quoting tbs
Kelley case as evidence that Mr..
Curry cannot hope for a cordial re
ception at idadrid are but poorly in-
formed. The objections to Mr.
Kelley ut Rome were not based
upon his religious views, but upon
the fact that he had been betrayed III
the heat of them into the severest
condemnation Of the means by which
the pl esent Italian government was
organized. He had likewise, public
", roundly denounced the leader OF
the movement, the father of the
present King. Now if Mr. Curry
had publicly denounced King Alfonso
and the msAns by which he ascend
ed the chrome, then there would be
some likeness betweenihis case and
o. 3ir. keiley, and some reason to be
aoD~ehensive IS to his reception at

AFFAIRS OF THE TRACK.
The Advance on Flour and Provis-

Cause OF the Advance.

The advance in Northern Pacific preferred
shares last week was largely due TO the an
nOuncement that the road was about to Sc
cure portion of the carrying trade between
of the belief is found in the fact that large
bark, the Isabella. has been loaded with
silks, teas. etc., at Yokohama. consigned
to the Northern Pacific at Tacoma. As the
vessel is of !. 200 tons burden it follows that
the cargo alone will provide a reasonable
return for freight charges, as it will pay
first-clasS rates and be transported over the
entire length of the road. If this traffic
can be extended so as 10 include a similar
cargo every week it will prove to be a sort
of bonanza. Speaking of bOnanzaS, it is
rumored that some miners who remained at
the Ceur d'Alene mines have been re-
Warded with rich finds. .........

BFainerd.

The members of the commission to locate
the third asylum for the insane, which
visited Brainerd last week. found them
selves very agreeably disappointed in the
place. Instead of lying in a swamp, as
they had been led to believe, they found
the city surrounded by fine farms and
splendid market gardens. Edward Gray,
Saloonkeeper who absconded some weeks
since, and returned few days ago a Ia the
prodlgal son, was arTaigned before the
police court on a charge of obtaining goods
from the Kentucky Liquor company under
false pretenses. He bought large bill of
goods from this company the day before he
left, which he did not pay for. The judge
held him in $500 to appear before the grand
jury. The Knights Templar melted
about Sl20 by their excursion to Duluth.
July A.. The promenade concerts given at
the rink by the Brainerd City band every
wednesday evening are the popular soci-
ETY. freak just now. The bonds for the
new st. Paul, Brainerd d Northwestern
railroad have arrived. They were made
by the National Bank Note company, and
are beauties. Chief of Police ShOntell
was arranged before the police court to
answer charge Of false Imprisonment pre-
ferred by Mary Jerome. Shontell arrested
plaintiff and locked her up on a charge of
disorderly conduct, and she was released
by order of the mayor. The case was
taken under advisement by the court.

The Advance To-Day.

This morning the Western trunk lines
will receive notice from Chicago Eastern
trunk lines that they must have their rates
on the new 20-cent tariff from Chicago to
New York. 1t is very improbable that the
20-cent rate will be maintained. as east
bound freight affairs are getting into worse
condition daily and but few lines adhere to
the agreed 15-cent rate. 1t is charged that
the Pennsylvania lines are taking all the
provisions they can get at rate of TX
cents from Chicago TO New York,
which is a cut of 81 cents per 100 pounds.
The Erie u Pacific Dispatch, il is claimed,
is taking grain at Is cents and provisions at
from Is TO 171E cents. The HOOSac Tm-
mel line which runs over the Wabash and
West Shore IN connection with the Fitch
burg road, is freely taking business to New
England points at cut of from cents 10
5 cents per 100 pounds. The Peoria roads
have never Yet advanced their rates above
13-cent basis. and more or less cutting is
reported to be going on from other points in
the vicinity of Chicago. In spite of these
facts the representatives of the Chicago
roads are going TO advance the
rates to the 20-eent basis to-day.
No one expects that under the existing cir
cumstances 20-cent rate can be maintained.
but by prOmugating such rate it is believed
that a better rate on interior business. as
well rs on business coming TO the trunk
lines at Eastern lake ports, can be obtained
hereafter. As far as through and export
business is concerned, large shippers will
no doubt continue to get the same low rates
as heretofore. for some time to come, but
small shippers will have 10 pay higher
rate All the business going forward for a
month or more after to-day will be ac-
counted for as having been i'm transit at the
old rates, at the time the new tariff went
into effect

MINNESOTA.
A Brutal ARRAY.

A row at New Market, says the Scott
Argus, eliminated in an assault which. to
say the least, was most brutal and cowardly
and which may yet prove fatal. The as
saulted party, Joseph PAUL., as near as we
could learn, had been drinking through the
day and was offensive and quarrelsome, as
according to reputation he always is when
under the influence of liquor. but this of
course does not excuse the apparently pre-
arranged plan Of the assaulting parties,
John and Matthias Hoff, to do him up. The
assault occurred only short distance from
Cassellius Bros store, the Hotf eboys
following up PAUL. as he started for home.
PAUL. was knocked down and cut and
bruised in dozens of places on his head,
neck and body, and left lying insensible in
the road. Upon statement of the attend
ing physician that the wounds might prove
serious the county attorney went to New
Market and took the victims ante-mortem
deposition. John Hoff was arrested, al
though he loudly proclaimed his innocence
or any knowledge of the affair. The
statement of PAUL., however, is that John
was the one who took the most active part
in the assault. Matthias Hoff left the
county Sunday night and up to our going
to press has not been captured.

special 10 the GLOBE.
FARGO, Oak, July 11.-Mat Edwards,
supervisor of the census of North Dakota,
was to-day interviewed by the GLOBE cor
respondent and said: The returns for North
Dakota indicate that in this portion OF the
territory the population will exceed $50, 900,
while in 1880 the entire territory contained
but 1875, TT, and North Dakota had SO, 465
of these, showing an increase of $50 per cent.
i'll five years, while fifteen years ago the
entire population Of North Dakota was
only 1,213. The schedules from enumer-
ators already received foot up to l23, $50
population, and the rest of North Dakota,
from weekly reports, show population OF
%, $50, making total for North Dakota OF
152. 696. This summary is liable to vary
1000 or 5000 either way. The SIX coun-
ties of Red river valley show over one
half of the total population, the amount
being so, 962. These counties embrace about
7.725 square miles. or one-eighth of North
Dakota. while the fifty other counties have
a population of about II, 764. The follow
ing is the population of some of the cities
reported: Fargo 1894, Grand Forks 6,555,

La Moure 35S. thus lar
about 1.123 old soldiers have been
reported, and about fifty who served
in the Confederate army. One feature
which is especially important in sanitary
view is the small number of deaths. Every
where the per cent is very small, but the
following counties report no deaths: Fos-
ter, Eddy, Wells, Sumner, Mcintosh,
Stark, Willard and Kidder. In many entries
not even case of sickness is reported. The
number of farms reported thus far are 81

will probably show about 80, $50 in North
Dakota, against II, 435 in the entire terri

AT the last meeting of the common council
the subject of water works was discussed at
some length. The plan seems to be TO pur-
chase the lots in East Rochester contiguous

Crops i'm Dakota.

From every source of Dakota, SAYS the
Sioux Falls Argus, come reports OF great
promise for the growing crop. Hardly,
within the past decade, has there been such
promise of magnificent harvest. For sew
eral years something has come to discour-
age our farmers and cause a partial failure
OF the crop. And never before has there
been such an acreage as at present We
nave heretofore depended TO a considerable
extent on Eastern capital and the growth
OF our country has depended little on the
local crop. But this era in our history is
past and now Dakota is becoming self-sus-
tanning. This year more than ever before
VIII our crop determine the condition of
trade during the coming autumn. With a
good crop, as Is now promised. every
branch of business will be wonderfully
stimulated and the stagnation of the past
few months will soon be forgotten. and the
chances now are about a hundred to one
that present promises will be realized. The
middle of July pretty definitely marks the
close of the cyclone and hail period and
every day now adds 10 the chances of a
complete escape from any of these natural
disasters. Another week will settle every
doubt arising from this source and we NAV
even now predict with almost absolute GER
tainty that our land is to be bountifully
blessed in the coming harvest. And never
was our country more in need of such a
harvest. just placed on its own resources
this crop will determine its prosperity for
years to come. 1t is a magnet that will
attract enterprise and capital and greatly
stimulate the development of our territory.
Even the prospect is having noticeable eff
feet. Let the days take their course and
the harvest come.
