Mrs. Fred Selle, living in the southwest

Pacific track, created a sensation yesterday
afternoon by jumping into the well near
her house. The neighbors saw her going
into the we'll and rushed to the rescue.
Much to their surprise they found that
Mrs. SeIle had sustained no injuries but
was in the bottom of the well informing
those who came to help her out that she
did not thank them for their trouble. She
refused their help and climbed to the top

All fur Hughes.

Yesterdays republican primaries in Bis
marck were revelation to several we'll
meaning and worthy citizens of Bismarck.
The fight was between General Hughes
and Judge G. B. Little, both of whom have
Legislative ambitions, and both of whom
are being supported by their friends for
the council. At the recent meeting of the
county committee the city vas redistricted
SO that there should be four precincts in
stead of two. AS the county committee
was controlled by the Little forces this
arrangement was looked upon as victory
for that gentleman.
The primaries resulted in a victoryffor
the Hughes delegates in each ward.
OUTSIDE PRECINCTS.
Up to late hour last evening but little
had been heard from the country precincts.
1t looks, however, as if Captain Hughes
has clean majority. Those heard from
We're Sterling, two delegates, Monoken,
Apple Creek, Fields and Pollock, each one
delegate-all for Hughes. Stewartdale,
Falconur's, Painted Woods and other pre-
cincts will likely fall in line.
Bismarck weekly tribune., 1888-09-28

Now that it has been pretty definitely
settled that General Hughes will be nom
mated for the council, itlmay be well TO
turn attention to the house and get view
OF the candidates for that branch OF the
Legislative body. Messrs. Parkins and
Luck are enterta aiming the voters OF Morton

KANSAS democracy has met res,

KANSAS democracy has met, reso-
luted, selected yictems and gone
home to get sobered up. Democ-
racy is IAN amusin' cuss." How in
the name Of all that's good, they
can rave against prohibition,
sumptuary laws, and metropolitan
police bills and then nominate q
man for governor who endorses all
these things, puzzles the uninitiated.
But to those who are used to the
cntter, it's easily explained. Void
of any clearly defined policy or po
lltical honesty, they hope to hood
wink the people into supporting the
ticket. But when we come to think
Of it, they would have no fun if
they were prohibited from playing
the fool. The usual republican
majority will be rolled up, unless
the enthusiasm for Ben. Harrison
leads us to cali for an increase of
fifty per cent, and we won't need to
stuff ballot boxes either.

been driven back to the republican

ministration they helped to create,
while the others have gone over bag
and baggage to the free traders,
where they properly belonged.

THE INTER OCEAN OF O. recent dat

THE INTER OCEAN OF q recent date
contains letter written by Judge
Tourgee and others urging upon
the republican managers the FEAST
bility of sending prominent speakers
to the south to discuss the political
questions of the day. Tt seems
strange that any argument should
be advanced or advice needed on
this subject, for, will not southern
speakers be found every where in
the doubtful states pleading the
cause of democracy? But any one
acquainted with southern methods
will not doubt the reception northen
speakers would receive. On one hand
they would meet the frowns and
insults of al ignorant rabblc, and
on the other hand northern sympa-
thizers will lift their hands in holy
horror at the invasion. No
discussion, to their minds is
| free from shaking the bloody shirt.
| 50 long as this state OF aIairs exists
eyry question Of labor, tariff and
temperance sink into Insignifcance,
for without an untrammeled, intel
igent voice Of the people, how can
these great questions be settled2
Tie c0vardly silence and utter
abandonment Of this question are q
sad commentary on the party Of
human rights. The GOODNESS with
which Cleveland and his party reap
the benefits OF fraud, intimidation,
and wholesale theft would make the
bricands Of southern Europe blush
for shame. Tariff refoT1nsrs may
rant; advocates Of tariff may crate;
temperance people may pray; re-
unions on Gettysburg and 4 tLous-
and Other bloody fields may meet,
and give each other taITy, but So
long Is crime goes unpublished,
citizens are openly deprived Of their
God given rights, no abiding peace
may be expected.
