On the first page will be found an
article on the frauds perpetrated in
the recent Virginia elections. The
fact is, where one party controls the
whole election machinery, no honest
and fair voice OF the people can be
had. 1t has been alleged on several
occasions in this county, that every
Democrat from other States claim
ing this county as his voting place,
was allowed to cast his ballot, while
Republicans with similar claims we're
denied that privilege. Be that as it
may, justice to the people requires
that no bitter partisans of either
party be appointed as judges of cleo
ton. In the extreme political pre-,
JUDGE of such men, it is simply i'm
possible for them to deal fairly, oath
or no oath. When one party is in
the majority and has the appointing
power, it is no more than right to
exercise it accordingly, but fair
minded and liberal men should be
selected. In this county there has
been reason of such complaint; aud
in this town there is an exceptional
case of mental influence from ex.
IRENE party feeling, that is stand
ing menace to the fairest and freest
performance of sworn duty. AS a
rule, we must say, the election judges
are generally men against whom
there can be no objection on the
ground Of being too bitter, politi
cally.

William A. j. Sparks, commissioner of
the general land office, has made re-
ply to the protest of Delegate Clifford
against the suspension of the surveying
contract of II. @. Green in the Turtle
Mountain region, the. protest accom-.
panying an appeal to the secretary of
the interior from the ruling of Mr..
Sparks. The land commissioner bases
his reply upon statute which pro.
hibits member of congress from APP
pearing in the capacity of an attorney
in such case and there ends his argu-
ment. MIR. Clifford, however, does not
rest the case upon this violent assump-
tion, but proceeds to elucidate
to Mr.. Sparks that his interest in the
case is that Of private individual, seek
ing redress for q wrong, and not that Of
an attorney. Mr., Gifford's presen tation
Of his status in the matter is convincing
and conclusive and it may induce Mr..
Sparks to say something upon the point
at issue, which he studiously avoids in
his pursuit of an untenable theory. MIR.
Clifford is endeeyorng to prevail upon
Mr.. Sparks to explain by what process
OF law or authority he overrules an order
of the secretary of the interior and the
president of the United States. He
finds thst the land commissioner is q
good dodger.

Harrison's Dakota bill. This bill pro.
vides for the division of Dakota on the
forty sixth parallel and the admission OF
the southern half under the second
Sioux Falls constitution and the official
organization selected at last falls cleo.
tion. 1t had passed the senate by vote
which included all the republican sena-
tors and ono democratic senator. It ia a
measure to which Dakota as whole is
justly entitled and in accomplishing it's
defeat the democratic party places itself
on the record in opposition 10 the con.
stitutional rights OF American citizens,
because those citizens possess repu-
tation fer fealty to the republican party.
It-was hardly expected that a tottering
democracy would possess the brutal
courage to inaict another grievous wrong
for politics sake, but that party seems
profoundly oblivious to the lessons of its
paat, and 1t openly proclalms that under
its code justice must remain subservient
to party dictation. This is declaration
which the republican party can take
before the people and invite them to
pass upon it at the November polls,
where a new house OF representatives. is
to be elected. South Dakota has proven
its right to self government, under con-
stitntion, law and precedent, but con-
tinued vassalage is enforced because
south Dakota gives a majority senti-
ment in favor of republican principles.
Democracy was twenty-five years re.
covering from It's disfranchisement Of
Kansas. Dakota may give to it another
quarter Of century Of well-earned
oblivion.

Republican senators have reached the
conclusion, after long contest over the
point, that federal judges in territories
may be removed during senatorial re-
ceeses, the. same as common officials. The
issue was made upon the theory that
territorial judges were judges of
the United States court, but sew
eral precedents have been discovered
wherein republican administrations have
violated that theory and repub-
llcan senators are compelled to weaken
or prove themselves inconsistent. This
conclusion harmonizes with the opinion
expressed by ex.Chlef Justice Edger-
ton, OF Dakota, early last winter.

Home Made Curtains.

Curtains made of alternate strips Of turkey
red and cheese cloth are Esetty trimmed with
antique lace. BeaUsifal curtains can be
made OF the best ehaese cloth by stenciling
them, or, u ecoremy is not consideration, a
soft nuns yelling, partly silk, is still better.
Ii the material is wide enough to be in one
piece, it is better than to have seam. but if
not, mako the seam as invisible as possible.
In tho first place, measure the window,
allowing little fulness, and allow three
eighths Of yard extra in the length to turn
over for q heading. Next stretch 10 tightly
and smoothly on a table, and fasten with
small tacEs. Select some simple design
which will look we'll IN outline such as a
daisy or sunhower or star. Draw the out
line neatly on piece of cardboard, then cut
out carefully with sharp penknife Now
there are two ways of managing. One way
is to use the perfectly cut opening IN the
cardboard that remains after tue design is,
cut out as a stencil, lay it ON the cloth, and,
with fine camel's hair or sable brush, paint
over the open space with gold paint or tho.
beautiful netallic "lustre" paints. Be caro-
full to fill out all the points in the pattern.
Repeat tho design ut intervals till within
three-eighths of yard of the top. Turn
that piece over and paint the pattern on the
other side. Turn the pieeS over and sew
small brass rings on % hang it OH brass
rod. Finish both top and bottom with gold
fringe, and make several rows Of feather
stitching with gold floss above the fringe.
Another pretty way Of making cheap cur
tains Is to take unbleacbed muslin and with
diamond dyes make spatter work design Of
ferns.
Lovely vestibule curtains may be made by
taking white tarlatan and cutting enough
larger than tho glass to admit Of an inch
wide hem all around, Cut from large-fgured
satin-fmished erctonne, flowers, leaves and
buttelditcs IL possible. Make thin starch
paste and paste thcm OH the tsrlatan in
sprays or wrcaths. Turn on the wrong side
and press until dry with a warm fiatiron.
Tho light shines through them and they have
tho effect of being painted. They will keep
clean long time.-Ms. c. s. Fox in Good

Fashioplets.

Small details rather than decided changes
distinguish new winter gowns.
Carriage costumes for afternoon visits are
made Of two or three fabrics combined.
Plush and velvet turbans, as well as those
of cloth, are much worn by young ladies, to
60 with tailor gowns.
Felt hats and bonnets are not so fashion
able as they have been, They are stiff and
uncomfortable. Plush, velvet and cloth have
taken the place Of felt somewhat. -
The French modistes seem to have gone
crazy In their search for new combinations of
color. Bright red, half covered with blue
braiding, is very fashionable for young ladies'
gowns, and dark green with brown for older
ones Another favorite combination Is sage
green and gray white.

Tomatoes and nIaccaroni.

Not everybody is aware what q delicious
dish can be made in simple manner from
these two constituents. Maccaroni, imported
or homo made, is sold done up in pound pack
nges OF boxes. 1t is very nutritious, contains
ing egg and flour among its constitute. ats:
Our American housekeepers do not NAL, o half
the use of it they might.
Now for tho recipe: Take SOHO long. thin
sticks of maccaroni and br.ak them into d
saucepan, in bits ore to two inches long.
They swell about nale In sizo in process of
cooking. Cover them amply with water,
and boil til bsy SIC quite sof., twenty min
utica 70 half an hour. Stir occasionally, to
kee., the broken bits from settling to the bot
tom and sticking.
While the maccaroni boils, scald half a
dozen ripe tomatoes, more or less. according
to tho quantity desired, and slice them. When
the maccaroni is soft enough to run fuis
through easily, pour the water nearly all Off
and slide the tomotoes in with the maccaroni,
Cook gently for ten minutes more and season
with salt, pepper and butter. A little milk
or cream makes q pleasant addition. Serve
hot .. .

Artistic Stoves,

We are rejoiced to soc an attempt to i'm.
prove the appearance Of stoves, there is no
other piece &C manufactured furniture that
is 50 unnecessarily homely and forbidfGig,
excepting pianos. The stove men c.and piano
men have been artistically slec,py ever since
the first of each was made thousands Of years
ago. The sheet irch euormities that are
brought into orr roosns and set down for our
physical cGIarbrt, presumably, are such de-
Gberaee and vicious horrors that the warm-
ing public has finally got up justifiabie and
widespread strike, since strikes are in FASH
Ion, and have actually driven the manufac-
turers to q contemplation Of something less
dclirious and rightn1areish in tendency. IL
there are such people in existence rs stove
designers they have lived a sinccmish life
heretofore, for the strain on their brain has
been at minimum, but the tax on cneir
nerves must have been excessive. At any
rate the manufacturers are cut, ,.rs loose from
these old time forms and Eilking use of the
healthier ideas of artists and as a consequences
producing something worthy Of COMMENT
