The inhabitants OF the blizzard
swept prairies OF the eastern states are
tuning their eyes with yearning
gaze toward the delightful climate of
Washington territory, and these long
suffering people are preparing to pack
their household goods and move to

land of peace and plenty. They are
not coming singly but in battaiions,

send back to their friends will be an
inducement for others to follow. The

Gen. Sherman on Harrison.

Gen. w. T. Sherman made a speech
recently at the New York Chamber
of Commerce banquet, in which he
was glad of Gen. Harrison's election
because it meant that the American
people would be represented in the
cabinet and in foreign countries by
those who fought for the country and
not against it. The next day the
general was interviewed in relation to
his speech, and asked if he really
meant what he said the night before,
The old veteran replied:
II meant every word of. If you
were a young man in Vienna, and a
man should come over there to repre-
sent this government who had once
borne arms against it, you would

The electors of each State meet,
usually at the capital of the State, and
give their votes on the first Wednes-
day in December after the election.
The electors make out and sign three
certificates Of all the votes given by
them, each of which certificates shall
contain two distinct lists; one, of tlie
votes for President, and the other of
the votes for Vice-President. The
electors shall then seal up the certifi-
Gates and certify upon each that the
lists of all the votes given are contain
ed therein. The certificates are dis
posed of as follows: The electors in
each State appoint person to take
charge of and deliver to the president
ofthe Senate at Washington before
the first Wednesday in January next
ensuing, one of the certificates. They
shall forthwith cause the other of the
certificates to be delivered to the Judge
of that district In which the electors
shall assemble. Congress shall be in

A Lesson Worth Rowing.

The New York Sun Democratic
says: Those who were so greatly SUPP
rised by the result of the election in
Brooklyn may gain light by examing
the neigl.borhoods where the Demo
cratic losses were greatest.
These neighborhoods are peopled by
skilled mechanics, who earn from SIS
to $2l week working in factories of
various sorts. These are an intelligent
lot of men. Many of them read the
technical papers devoted to the busl-
ness of thier trades as we'll az the pol
itical journals OF the day. They do not
need the advice Of campaign orators
when deciding how they shall vote.
The educational campaign excited
their contempt, and they voted for
what they believed to lie the interests
Of their guilds.
In the brown-stone districts Cleve-
land held his own. In the tenements
he made gains; but III the districts of
small homes those gains were knocked
higher than Gilderoy's kite.
Morris tribune., 1888-11-28

Just so. Says the Minneapolis
Journal: The Northwest begs to ex-
tend its heartfelt sympathy to the
blizsard-stricken East. Yesterday,
while Minnesotans were admirlng an
Italian sky, walking without overcoats
and opening their windows to admit
the soft balmy air that tasted like
sweet wine, violent snow storm was
raging in the East. Telegraphic COM
munication is suspended to-day, old
ocean is in the widest delirium of q
protracted spree, fears are entertained
for shipping, and people are kept IN
doors piling wood and coal upon their
fires in order to keep them warm.
That blizzard did not come via Dako-
ia, either.

Thanksgiving Day

"Come, uncles and cousins; come,
nieces and aunts;
Come, nephews and brothers - no
wont's, no can'ts;
Put business and shopping and school
books away,
The year has rolled round; it Is
Thanksgiving Day."
Thanksgiving Day here in the
''rowdy West" is, not what Thanks
giving Day was down in New Eng
land thirty and forty yearsago. Then
1t was THE day of all the year. Christ
mas and New Years were but little
celebrated when we were away down
IN Yankee land. We have here in
Stevens county quite a number of
genuine Yankees, who remember all
about Thanksgiving Day down in
Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine,
Massachusetts, Connecticut and
Rhode Island; how the soEs and their
wives and their children. the sisters,
cousins, nephews, aunts and uncles
used to assemble at the old family
homestead, to enjoy Thanksgiving
Day. And such O dinner! And such
q jolly good time afterdinner! Little
thinking how much hard work for
days and nights had been done by
loving hands to prepare that dinner
for the dear ones who were expected
to be present and partake Of it. At
last. the dinner is prepared and all
gather around the festive board, and
then the gray-haired sire, bowling
down to Heavens Eternal Kiag, offers
up an earnest prayer Of thanks for the
great blessings received. Away back
forty and fifty years ago Thanksgiving
Day In New England was considered
as sort OF holy day, and the amuse-
ments INDUCED in on that day were
OF the most innocent character. Such
a thing as ball or q dancing party
was not SO much as dreamed of; but
in later years moro liberal ideas pre-
vailed. and balls and all kinds of
were enjoyed. until, at
the present time it has become an
acknowledged holiday. Quite differ
emit indeed from the Yankee Thanks
giving Day Of fifty years ago. But
still the remembrance of those old |
Thanksgiving Days are stored away |
in our memory among the most cher
Lshed OF our recollections. We most
hope that all Of the readers
81 the TRIBUNE have good cause to be
thankful on Thanksgiving Day, 1883.

The Indianapolis Journal, whose
managing editor has been selected by
Mr.. Harrison as his private secretly,
says:
The tenure of Office law and the
civil service law must be observed in
spirit as well as in letter. Officials
commissioned for four years from the
date of their appointment, who are
competent and efficient and who have
given no cause for their removal, Will
probably be permitted to serve out
their terms. The new President can
not be expected to make sweeping re-
movals in such cases. At all events,
those who do expect it will likely be
disappointed.
This is, no doubt, authoritative and
will be unwelcome news to many
place hunters.

A New Apportlonment Needed.

The newspapers are discussing the
matter of n nav legislative apportion-
ment, and il is quite prahal,.e that the
next session OF our i4egislalur will
reapportion Tie State. TIL, Minne-
apolis Journal, in referring to this
matter, says: The Last apportionnent
was made seven years ago, when the
population of the State sas not half
as large as 1t Is now, and when the total
vote cast for Governor was only 1O2,-
1893, whereas in 1SS6it was 900, 484, and
ut the last election about 245, 900. This
doubling of population aud of voting
strength has not gone on regularly
and evenly all over the State. On the
contrary, some localities have actual
ly lost population, while others have
gained six or eight times as much as
they had In 1881.
A few examples will illustrate q
condition of things that is growing
worse every year. The first district,
consisting of Houston county, is en-
titled to one senator and two repre-
sentatives, ar three members of the
Legislature. The vote of Houston
county in 1885 was ., 1886. or an average
of 945 votes to a representative.
Fillmore county constitutes the
second district and is entitled to one
senator and Ave representatives, or
six members. The vote Of Fillmore
county in 1886 was j, 022, or an average
of S37 votes to a representative. Blue
Earth county. or the tenth district,
has one senator and four representa-
tives to $3.50 votes, and Winona
county, the fifteenth district, has six
members to 6,262 votes. All these
districts are in the southern part of
the State.
Hennepin county contains the
twenty-ninth, thirtiet.l and part of
the twenty eighth districts - Anoka
and Isanti counties being included in
the Twenty-eighth. The total vote of
all three counties in 1855 was SO, lib,
while the total representation in the
Legislature wac only II, or an average
of $50 votes to each member. That
is more than twice rs large q constiu-
eHcy to each member than is credited
in the first or second districts. Tie
for:y-sixth or Duluth district is placed
at the greatest disadvantage. It in.
cludes the counties of Hubbard, Carl
ton, st. Louis, Wadena, Cook, Lake,
Itasca, Cass and Aitkin. The total
vote in 1886 was 7,472 and the delega-
ton. in tho Legislature consists OF
only one senator and one representa-
tives, all average of 3.7s4 votes to a
member. The vote for 1888, although
not official, makes still worse show
ing than that of 1856, but that the
figures of 1856 are sufficient to show
that the Legislature of 1887 had no
right to shirk the duty of readjust-
ment of the representation to cores
pond with the changes in population. "
At the late election the total vote
of this Legislative district was 4,779,
and we have one representative and
one senator, or 2, $50 to each represen-
tative. Stevens county cast 1,l97
votes, and should have a representa-
tive of her own, that is, If she was al
lowed fair representation with some
of the other Counties of the State.
