IN MENORIAM.

CHARLES ", BRANTLEY, son of G.. d.
and E. c, Brantley, was born IN Lafayette,
Chambers Co.., Ala, and died at the resi-
dence Of W. Is. Augustus, near Macon,
Miss, Sept. 30, 1856, aged So years. | met
him about two months ago, and from my
intercourse with him, found him to be an
intelligent, sincere and refined young man.
A college friend said she was the very soul
Of honor" At first acquaintance he would
impress one as rather reserved, possibly
cold, but afterwards you found that he had
4 great heart, full of tenderness and deep
affection. His illness was long and suffer
ings great, yet he bore them, not stoically,
but with christian resignation. Young and
full Of hope, he naturally chung to life, yet
he prayed to his heavenly Father "Thy
will not mine be done During his last
days the grand old songs his mother used to
sing, came back to him, and were sources
of Joy and comfort to his heart. His love
Tor God and faith in Christ gave him tri-
umph when death came.
1--WE ask for life and mean thereby
\ few uncertain years,
The sunshine of u changeful sky
over II vale Of tears.
But Thou art better than our prayers
And giyeth, in Thy love,
A shorter path through earthly cares,
A longer rest above.
From sin and strife, with sorrow rife,
Thine early call doth sever.
Thou giyest us Il long, long life,
Forever and forever!

What the Government Is Paying
Ito 9oId,oro on6 W,dowo

ACo SSAoASAo q 1AAN w AAS"os
Commissioner Blacks report for the
past year shows that Ramsey county has
80 pensioners, to whom tho government
pays the sum of $3.50 monthly. OF these
25 are invalid pensioners, four are wild
ows Of tho late war and ono is a widow

The pension business Of tho Union is

minor children and dependent relatives;
1858 navy invalind; 1873 navy widows,
minor children and dependent relatives:
1889 survivors of the war of 1872, and
1897 widows of those who served in that

School Fund vs.. General Fund.

On lnursuay Attorneys MCGe0 u Nor
gan and Jas. V. Brook Q argued tho qucs-
ton before Judge Mcconnell ut I.akota
as to what fund had tho right to tho Mum
ger and Whittemore forfeited bail mon-
ey. Tho question arose on an applica-
tion of Mr.. Brooke, as superintendent
of schools, to tho board of county COM
missioners to turn tho money into tho
school fund. At the time Of tho forfeit
ure, under tho act of 1883, the money be-
longed to tho school fund. At tho time
of tho forfeiture this county was attached
to Grand Forks county for judicial pur-
poses. The money WAS paid to tho clerk
of the court, who turned 1t over to the
treasurer Of Grand Forks county. He,
on application, refused to deliver it to
the treasurer of Ramsey county, and suit
was commenced which resulted in turn
ing tho money over in August, 1886, to
Ramsey county. In 1895, after tho for
feiture and before the money came into
Ramsey county, tho legislature changed
the law, giving such forfeltures to the
general fund. Messrs. McGce Il Morgan
argued the case in behalf Of the general
fund and Mr.. Brooke for the schools.
Judge Mcconnell hold that tho money
could not be considered collected until It
got into tho hands of tho treasurer of
Ramsey county, and was therefore sub
ject to tho provisions of the act of 1885,
went into the general fund. Tho case
was fully and exhaustively argued by
both sides. This decision will disap-
point many expectations, but it is gen
orally conceded to be sound law. The
case was submitted on stipulations, thus
saying tho expense OF litigation.

ger.
An unofficial count, says the siftines,
gives Campbell majority Of seven over
Rolfe, which, however, the official count
may change. The result is 70 close % to
create feeling not averse to contest a.
to the legality of the Fort Totten vote, tho
ballot box having been brought from tho
regular polling place to the fort. It il
thought by some that this is an irregular
proceeding, and contrary to the spirit Of
the election laws. So far as the Siftings
is concernted, it would like to see this
point settled once for all by the proper
authorities, so that there may be no room
for doubt or confusion from this source
in future contests. No polling place can
be established on the reservation, but
whether it is unlawful to remove . ballot
box there on election day from an adjoin-
ing precinct, as a matter Of convenience
for those who are entitled to vote at tho
Fort, let the powers that be decide, and
decide now.
