The newspapers of Grand Forks

interest in the election. There
were the Republican, Democratic

and the fight, like everywhere else,
was warm.
The dance given by the fire de-
partm ent Thursday evening of last
week. was a grand uccess, socially
and financially. Much credit must
be given the ladies for the fine sup
per furnished on the occasion. Tie
firemen are wise in getting at this
matter of early raisi ng funds for
the tournament.
This depot matter involving the
reputation of Il young man, is to
have a thorough investigation.
Mrs. johnson of Minor, is to be
brought back here and the affair set
tied. This is Il course which not
only seems to be wanted by all con-
cerned, but the proper course. The
truth and justice is what is wanted
VIM. Northey, the buther. has
purchased some fifty head Of
sheep for his market, and pastures
them just north of the city, end is
sorry to say that three of these
have been killed by dogs within the
past week, aud that he proposes to
shoot all dogs in the future caught
chasing his animals. And we think
he is right about the matter. He
knows one man. s dogs implicated in
the matter. But then no mercy
will be shown any dog caught in the
act after this. 1t seems the killing
has been done while the boys who
herd the sheep have been at dinner.
We paid visit this week to the
round house now in course of
construction at Breckenridge. This

there are large force of men
putting on the roof and building
the stalls. Foreman Slichter points
out that the house is we'll arranged
as to drainage, ETC., and that when
the yard is somewhat rem odelled, the
new workshop finished and the old
place torn away, there will be 4
vast improvement in the appear
ance Of things about the Brecken-
ridge yard, to SAY nothing. of the
great convenience such improve
ments will be to the company's
employees at that point. Brecken-
ridge has Il very material acquisi-
tion to her commercial interests in
this valuable Improvement, and no
mistake.

They were old friends, and had
been sweethearts, in their younger
days. There was silver in her hair
and snow on his, and they sat and
talked of old times when they were
young. They did not say how
many years ago the adventure hap
pened. They did not speak of
dates. 1t was ''when we were
young" Their first meeting, their
first kiss. their first quarrel, their
last meeting. their last kiss, their
last quarrel, were all gone over.
Perhaps they both warmed little
over the recollections. At last he
said: SAY, Jennie, an 1 hae nd

Boarded by q Bird.

When the steamship Polaria, of
the Union Direct Hamburg line,
was eight days ont and nearly in
midocean, First Mate Trau:sen was
hit on the head by something and
knocked nearly off the bridge, on
which he stood smoking his pipe.
He thought at first that some part
of the rigging had been blown loose,
but Il big bird came fluttering down
on the deck, exhausted. He ran
dow n and seized the bird, which
proved to be large eagle, of kind
seldom caught. The bird was so
exhausted that it was easily captur-
ed. Trauisen tied the bird to the
deck and gave it piece of raw meat
This the bird devoured us though it
had had nothing to eat for several
days. The voraeity of tho bird in
dicated that 1t would be an expen=
sive boarder, but the Paloria, like
other merchant vessels, carries Il
great many rats, and the sailors
were set to catching them. A big
fellow was thrown down in front of
the eagle, which caught it and broke
it's neck before it had time to sniff
The eagle stripped off the flesh. and
in five minutes not bone was left.
The bird ate all the rats the sailors
could catch that day. The ship car:
penter soon rugged up . neat and
comfortable cage and the eagle was
put into it. The eagle is a 'beauti-
f4l bird deligately speckled with
brown and white feathers, It's
head is spal!, b4t its eyes are Large
and in the dark they glow like balls
of FIRE. When the mate puts his
band in it stands Up straight, opens

Freedom and Obedience.

It is not a good sign of the times that obedience has become an of fensive word. There has always been rebellious spirits that resist authority and refuse to accept re- SpousibilitieS not oi their own choosing. But that the people of no very remote period consider ed obedience one of the chef vir tues we all know. There is no one of the ten commandments that q generation or two ago seemed to commend itself to the general judgment of intelligent '1inds as that which imposed honor to parents. But even this appears to have lost it's hold upon the con science, and children take occas- sion to make 1t appear that the> are not under the domiui.iou oi such old fashioned notions But have we gained anything by these new liberties on which men pride themselves as if they were the most valuable of all poSseSsionss How are we to nam tain the ami ly and civil relations if personal in- dependence is to he accounted the first virtue? The 'nilucnce ofthcs" ideas are felt, in the reiiglous world and even those who profess faith in Christ have lost the ul, time delerence tor authority. M" shall yet have to retrdcc our steps, and learn that obedience, such as the highest interest of society and the service of Christ demand, is dh ennObling quality which lifts men into the highest experiences of trae freedom.

Buddhist Principles,

An important part of the Budd- hist creed Is the belief in the al. teralions of periods of repose with the periods of activity. As man sleeps a part of every twenty-tour hours, and vegetation subsidies and reviveS with the seasons, so rest periods follow each incarnation. The tide wave of humanity flows OH to each of the seven planets seven times, passes through its seven races, aud ebbS away again; but the great rest period of our planetary chain does not begin uutil the seventh round ot human | ity is perfected At an incalcuIa. ble remote period the whole ot seven planetary chains of our so- lar system will pass into a period of rest, and finally the whole uni verse itself will have it's great eos mic night. After the long night of the planetary chair the animal and vegetable world reSume their arrested activity; but when the time arrives for all the planetary chains of oar system 10 pass into their night, each planet, as :hc IeVenround man quits II, k ami hll ited instead of merely becoming invisible, and there is an outflow from every kil gdom of It's entities. These will rest in lethargic sleep i'll space until bright into life again at the neX; solar period, and will then form the soul of the future globe. We have every indication that at this very moment such a solar night Is taking place, while there are two minor ones ending somewhere now. At the begin ing of the next solar day period the hitherto subjective clements of the material worlds, now scat tered in cosm1c dust, will form in- 10 primordial ripples Of life, and separating into diifereutiating cen .ers of activity, combine in a grad
 uated scale of seven stages of cN- olution. Every orb will pass through seven stages of destiny until its qualification and apsiccn- ton at least reach a point when it becomes relaxed conglomcrHlc, and the constituent masses cease to obey the lawS of cohesion which hold them together. - Nature.

MILLIONS IN GOLD TYPE.
The Establishment Over Which
 the Public Printer Presides.

Within three weeks new pub lie printer will be installed - Mir. Benedict, of New York. The president has indicated all along when pressed, that he Was reserv- ing the place for some personal friend in the empire state. It will he a pretty big undertaking for q fresh man to assume, but the meth cd and system of the institution are such that one acquainted with the craft can soon master the details and keep the great ball i'll motion,
 There are about 2500 people now at work in tie building, half of whom are females The building is 3G0 feet long by 300 wide, aud was built for printing purposes. It cost the government SlO0,OOO originally and has been hnlarged and improved to a like amount.
 The machinery, building, type, paper in stock, etc, are valued at round ni4llion of dollars. There are several thousand eleetric lights in the different departments and many 0i them art kept burning day and night. NatUhmea patrol each floor at all hours and they must wind up three clocks placed al stated distances eveiy half an hour, The clocks show at what time they were wound and in this way indicate that the watch is do- ing his duty.
 There are a dozen female type settlers in the establishment and several of them are among the swittest workers in the country. One of them has made as high as Sl50 in a month.
 There are d half dozen colored conpoSitors, pretty good work men. There are over two hundred people in the building, but most of them are laborcrS. The best print CTS average about &l00 per month. Nearly all of the employees are paid by the honr and overtime lost is not lost as 1t were.
 The public printer Is paid Si,500 per annum and is allowed q pri- Nate secretary at $500 and |, car riage and team. His subordinate officers, deputy clerks, time-keep- CTS and so on get salaries ranging from S2JO0 to ;3l200.
 Tie working hours are from s in the morning until , o'clock in the atternOon-an hour earlier and an hour later than the other de partmentS. There is also a large night force always at work,
 One of the tOremen said to a Journal correspondent tot day that the work from this last seSSiou was double that of any long seS- sion before. Four hundred thouS' and agricultural reports, weighing a pound each, were printed, bound and delivered at the last session, 310,O00 this session, with 100000 70 get out at the next.
 There are 400 men in the bind cry and they are kept busy from one end of the year to the other. None of the officers or employees in this department come under the civil service.

Don't snub a boy because he wears shabby clothes. When Ed ison, the inventor of the telephone first entered Boston, he wore a pair of yellow linen bree ches in the depth of winter.
 Don't snub a boy because his home is plain and unpreteuding. Abraham Lincoln'S early home was l0g-cabin.
 Don't Snub boy because of the ignorance Of his parents. Shake spearc, tine worlds poet, was the son of a man who was unable to write his own name,
 Don't snub boy because he chooses an humble trade. The author of Pilgrims Progress was d tinker.
 Don't snub a boy because of physical disability, Milton was bhnd.
 Don't snub a boy because of dullucSS in his lessons. H0garth, the celebrated painter and en- graver was a stupid boy at his books
 Don't snub a boy because he stuttcrS. DemosthcneS, the great est orator of Greece, oNeracamc a harsh and stammcrlng voice.
