We haye long wondered if the
Duluth system OF government was
original with Mayor Sutphin and
Chief Doran, but we picked UP an old
paper the other day in which we
found the following item among the
foreign dispatches, it being dated at
Cork, Ireland, in which we find
either PRECEDENT for or an imitation
of the Duluth plan, to-wit:
''The man who is accused of cor
rupting young girls, and against
whom the charges Of the three young
girls who are 1emates of the Good
Shepherd convent are made, is learn
ed to be Major Bishop, Governor of
the county Jail. The police authori-
ties refuse to prosecute him. !"
1T is stated that Hon. John
Lind of Minnesota, is serving on the
same committee, occupying the
same seat assigned to Abraham
Lincoln during his first term in Con
gress. 1t is not likely that the coin
cident will in any way effect Mr..
Lind's efficiency which wholly comes
from his own energetic spirit and
plain common sense "-Mankato

Bcsieged by Friends.

The friends and neighbors of Mr.. and
Mrs. James Gray, of Douglas township,
met at their home last Friday evening
to show their love and respect for them
as neighbors and citizens. The COM
pany went laden with oysters, and bas-
kets of good things, and the manage
ment of the house was taken in hands
by the company, and soon shaped to
their own convenience. The table was
spread at II p. M, and jolly feast of
eatables and fun was enjoyed. After
supper Mr.. Slayton, with his violin and
Mrs. Ochiltree at the organ furnished
music appropriate to the occasion. The
social was also in honor of Mrs. w. G.
Bottentield and family, who have lived
long among us, and who occupy warm
places in the hearts of their neighbOrs.
Mrs. BOttenlield and family will soon
move to Des Moines, where two sons
already reside and hold important posi-
tons. Mr.. Gray has sold his farm, and
will soon move to southwestern Ne
braska. We hope that both families
may find happiness and plenty in their
new homes. The company consisted
of tifty-four of the immediate friends
and neighbOrs of the families.

III WAS recently stated in these col,
nmns, and the opinion has obtained
that a pharmacists permit from the
board Of supervisors TO sell intoxicating
liquors must be renewed each year. An
old statute was to this effect, but a
later enactment, which is silent on that
point ana does not contain clause re-
pealing the former act. has been accept,
ed as a criterion by the supreme court
The case was brought from Dallas
county, and the fact that the druggist
had sold liquors after his permit had
been in existence one year was one of
the points in question, but the court,
Judge Beck dissenting, decided that the
permit was valid. The law is at least
ambiguous and demonstrates the neces.
1ity of revision.

Protection Against Swindlers.
from fte UdrsR her.I.

from tse tdr6N Her-Id.
The fellows who can get more read
ing matter for half the money in east
ern weeklies than they get in their
home papers have been heard from
agalu, They have asked the Legisla
ture to enact law against bohemian
oats" swindlers and sharpers Of that
character. As we'll might they ask our
representatives at Des MOines to inject
a quantity of anti-gullibility and native
GautiousneSs into their pachydermous
scalps.
Why don't those fellows read the
newspapers of their county and state
and learn what is going on around
them? Every swindle that has been
perpeirated in Iowa for the last ten
years is an old one and has been time
and again exposed and laid bare by the
newspapers of the state, which are con
stantly Gau;ioning the people against
the wiley schemes OF transient vendors
and travelling agents. Notwithstand
ing all this. men continue to be taken
i'll and their hard earned dollars go to
swell the pocket books Of the slick
tongued rascal who laughs at their guilt
bility and wonders why they are duped
so easily.
But it is not surprising that men can
he found who fall ready prey to in
genious SWindlers. They read eastern
papers. filled with accounts Of smuggling
matches. interviews Of politicians, col
umnS of base ball news and narratives
of murdererS and robbers, fashion notes
and foreign correspondence. The con-
tents of those papers are of such gen
eral character that they apply to 10 To-
cality and the man who reads no other
has no knowledge of home affairs vixen
he gets through his weekly perusal. lie
knows nothing of the affairs of his own
state; nothing of the appropriation of
taxes, nothing of the business tran
sacted at his own county seat. lie
is ignorant of the frauds perpetrated
throughout the country and falls an
easy victim on the first opportunity. He
is indeed helpless creature. Law
can't protect him.
The man who reads a state and
county paper is too well informed to be
duped by sharper. If our legislators
would pass law making it necessary
for man to take and pay for one good
weekly, such as the Register, Leader,
Homestead, Ha,Okeye, NOnpdreH, Stour
city Journal, etc, and home county
paper. before he could have recourse to
law for protection, we predict that
swindlers would find Iowa pastures
poor picking. IT is the old principle Of
educating the masses rather than legis-
latipg them into intelligent action that
leads us to this conclusion.

A Remarkable Record.

Notwithstanding the adversely of the
elnments, and in spite of the storms and
billiards which have been reported as
impeding travel in the great northwest,
we have from the Chicago & North
Western railway the official statement
that its Overland Express" between
Chicago and Council Bluffs during the
80 days of its operation, from December
Goth to Feb. 18th, has suffered no serious
interruption to its movement. During
only four days Of this time-in the
midst OF the great Japuafy storm as
this train as much as one hour behind
its schedule. Eight times its arrival
was within one hour of schedule, and i'm
every other instance its arrivals have
been accurately on time.
II is confidently asserted that no fast
train upon any other road on this CONT.
nent can during the same period show
n better record.
