NOT A MONOPOLY PRESIDENT

The Grand Forks Herald says that Presi-
dent CLEVELAND will earn the lasting
gratitude of Dakota if he declines to foist
upon her the agents and attorneys of the
railroad monopoly which is doing all it can
to crush the life out of that territory. Judg-
ing from present indications there is not
much probability of this administration
foiSting the agents of any sort of monopoly
upon the people of any section. The
prOmpmess with which the administration
has grappled with the land monopoly and
in uncovering its rascalities gives encourag-
ing hope that so far as the administration
has the power to protect the people from the
expressions of monopoly it will be done.
The president ought to, and no doubt will,
in making territorial appointments have an
eye to the promotion of the material inter-
ests of the territories, and appoint only such
persons to position as have thorough lmowl-
edge of the needs of the territory where they
will be assigned to duty, and who have the
honesty and capacity to give prosperous
administration. We hope that the day has
passed by when political offices in the terri
tories are to be filled by the agents of rings
and syndicateS who have no interest in the
country further than it promotes the inter-
estS of the corrupt gangs they represent.

words of President CLEVELAND the other
day, when, in reply to an address from a
delegation of colored men from Virginia, he
said:
1 have listened with much interest to the
words in which you have addressed me, and
l am satisfied that you are determined to
claim only the rights and privileges of citi-
zens by the proper performance of your du-
ties as such citizens. 1t has been said that
''eternal vigilance is the price of liberty" L
desire to remind you of this and to say that
the vigilance to which refer is based upon
that intelligence and thoughtful consideration
which induce you to see and apprehend
things that pertain to your interests as citi-
zens. and to gain a knowledge of these things
in your own way and without being blindly
led or cunningly deceived, and when this is
fully accomplished the day will come which
/, for one, will be glad to see-when some
thing better than race or color will divide the
political action OF those who are citizens OF
the United States.

lowed by his son Ulysses and his wife and
Mrs. Jessie Grant. Harrison mounted the

yesterday, and business was well distributed
and prices generally were higher, though the
gains in most cases were only fractional. I'm
favorable reports about an unpleasant fight
among the lines of roads west of Chicago
produced an attack on the Changers, espec-

become very weak for the Changers and
steady for the Gould stock. 1t rallied little
toward the last part Of the day, but closed
irregular with the heaviest decline in Omaha.
The Chicago wheat market kept along pretty
steady till afternoon, when it fell off. In st.

Northern Pacific Cattle Shipments.

1t is the intention of the following cattle
and stock growers to ship between 80, OOC
and 10000 head of cattle into Montana via
the Northern Pacific road, from Washing.
ton territory: Rosenbound & Blair, Chi,
cago; George Wells, Iowa; Hereford Live
Stock company, Boston: Henry Tustly.
Miles City; Conrad Hohns, Deer Lodge;
Hopson & Power Chicago: Charles Anci.
ney, Montana; Gallivan, Hopkins & Ma.
grill, Musselshell; Henry Steven. Fort
Benton, and Wyatt & Ross, Miles CITY.
These cattle will begin to be shipped by the
list OF May, and in the fall will be agaiu
shipped to market, mostly to Chicago.
1t will be remembered that an experiment
was made of shipping cattle from Washing
ton territory direct to Chicago. Some of
the stock growers We're asked their opinion
concerning so long haul. They said than
the experiment trip proved that it was too
great distance and too tedious one and
it is not likely that another attempt of the
kind will be tried. On that trip the shrink
age was $50 pounds to the steer.
Washington territory offered SIS gross,
Portland delivery, but the offer was not ac.
cepted On arrival at Chicago, the ship
per received S4.2O gross. The loss was sc
cents per 100 pounds, and adding the ex
pense of freightage, feed along the line, be-
sides the large risk assumed, the loss
amounted to $35 per head against Portland
prices.
Another herd is now ready at Montana,
and the cattlemen who were in the city yes
terday recommended that the owners open
negotiations with the Marquis de Mores for
their purchase. 1t was stated that the
marquis has plan on foot to make Me-
dora the general cattle market for Wash
imgton and Oregon production. The Situa-
ton is half way between Walla Walla and
Chicago and giving price nearly equal to
that paid by the Chicago market, western
shippers will receive benefit amounting to
not less than $40 per head. Such a plan
wauld allow Montana cattle to be shipped
to Chicago, which are now killed al

WHEN rrIsTs HAVE CLEARED.

When the mists have rolled in splendor
From the beauty of the hills,
And the sunshine, warm and tender,
Falls in splendOr on the rills,
We may read loves shining letter
In the rainbow of the spray;
We shall know each other better
When the mists have cleared away.
If we err in human blindness,
And forget that we are dust,
If we miss the law of kindness
When we struggle to be just,
Snowy wings of peace shall cover
All the pain that clouds our way,
When the weary watch is over
And the mists have cleared away.
When the silvery mists have yelled us
From the faces of our own,
Oft we deem their love has failed us,
And we tread our path alone;
We should see them near and truly,
We should trust them day by day,
Neither love nor blame unduly,
If the mists were cleared away.
When the mists have risen above us,
As our Father knows his own,
Face to face with those that love US,
We shall know as we are known.
Low beyond the orient meadows
Floats the golden fringe of day;
Heart TO heart we hide the shadows,
Till the mists have cleared away.

Wheeling nailers from the Amalgamated

Mrs. GarfieId's Yearly Income.


WASHINGTON, April Oh The recent
reports concerning Mrs. Garfed's endow-
ment of the Garfield hospital, and othe
gossip about the widow of the martyr pres
ident have created some curiosity about the
lady's financial condition. An intimate
friend Of Mrs. Garfield residing in this city
gives the following description of her estate:
The subscription raised through the in
strumenfality of Cyrus w. Field aggre-
gated when invested i'll government bonds
about 1912, 900. Gen. Garfield's life was
insured for $4,000, the payment
of which the company, for the
sake of the extended advertisement 1t
would give them, If for no other
purpose prsmptly made. Congress also
voten her the remnant of salary which
would have been due Gen. Garfield for the
first year of service as president, which
amounted to $40, 900. The little estate
which Garfield left aggregates some $50, 900.
This was all that he had been able to ac
cumulate after life of unusual activity.
This makes her total estate. In round
numbers it is about $3.50, 900 in money well
invested. From this an income of S16, 900
is derived. In addition to that she has from
congress an annual pension Of S., 900 which
is now voted TO the widows of all eX-presi-
dents

THE uncertainty of the fate OF the Fort
Pitt people who have failed to reach Battle
ford adds to the horror of the situation in the
Northwest. The killing of two of the Fort
Pitt crowd, and the probability that all who
left that point in an attempt to reach Battle
ford have been followed, overtaken and
butchered by RIEL'S savage rebels, VIII be
apt to act rs inspiration to the troops under
Gen. MIDDLETON when they succeed in bring
ing RIEL and his followers TO bay.
