GAMBIA, O., February 13, 1883.

BISMARCK, OAK, Feb. 3.-An at
tempt was made here few days ago
by saloon keeper named Griffin, tt
assassinate Mr.. W. P. Mofitt, one OF
the stanch Prohibitionists of the Ter
ritory and editor of The Dakota Set
tier.
The Commissioners Of this county
| (Burleigh) refused to allow the people
to vote on Prohibition under the Lo-
cal Option law, fraudulently throwing
out petitions Two Of the Commits
sioners protested, and Mr.. Moffitt, de-
Tended them IN his paper, although
not using severe language. The sa-
| loon-keepers attorney warned Mnffitt
some weeks ago that unless mis- arti-
cles defending the temperance Com
missioners were stopped, he wonld be
stopped. Mr. Moffitt paid no atten-
tion to the threat.
While Mr.. Mofitt was seated in his
editorial office few days ago, saloon
keeper Griffin suddenly pounced upon
h in. He dragged him to the floor,
jumped upon him, and pounded him
over the head with the butt of
heavy pistol until he was senseless.
Then he left him for dead.
Mr.. Mofitt has been lying in
critical condition. but with good care
he will probably recover. He is a
Young man, scarcely out of his teens.
His father Is Superintendent of Mis-
sions Of the United Presby
Church in Dakota.
There is just one way to meet a
bullying doggery-keeper, and that
way we adopted many years ago.
When one of these imp of Satan at
tempts to put down by FORGET he man
who dares to tell the truth about their
terrible traffic, they should by in
formed, firmly and promptly, that
they attacked at their own peril. We
have had many dire threats made
against US, and have been followed
about the streets by paid bullies-but
hey always religiously kept their
lands off. The spirit of the liquor
business is the spirit of murder, rob-
'ery, outlawry. 1t should be treated
IS such.

Ancient Before Modern.

There Is n Japanese proverb which
says Ito learn the new. search tho
old.' and In many instances thore Is
more truth than poetry in tho asser-
ton. The telephone has been looked
upon as strictly modern invention.
but statement has recently been
made by traveller In India that the
instrument has been used by tho
priests OF that country for over 1000
years. The telephone OF India lacks
the improvements and perfection of
the telephone of America. neither have
they any system Of general COM
munication. II is confined entirely to
the temples and employed only by tho
high caste people. Its very existence
Is kept a secret TO general travellers in
that country, as 1t has been for the
1000 years IL has lived. In some Of
the temples arc the remains OF worm
eaten transmitters and wooden con-
duIts. which AFRO at least several
hundred years old. The priests claim
that tho system has been In existence
since the creation. and laugh at the
idea Of It's being applied In America
only within the last few years II these
statements arc true. who then was tho
real inventor of tho tclcphoncP II II
began with tho creation. II must either
have been given to the world by the
Divine power. or we owe its existence
to tho inventive genius Of father Adam.

alton which should have bestowed
upon the dear dead will be forbidden

right 10 pray nor to weep. To the de-

an eternal separation. What might

Lord Melliyan did not appear to un-
derstand Stenio. Infiexibly he went
on toward the end that he had fixed
upon. only through Maud's death
was Marackzy to be struck. Who
knows what his reply would have been
had he been offered the choice between
the recovery of his daughter and the
accomplishment of his vengeance
What frightful debate might have
occurred between his rancor and his
tenderness.
But Maud was lost. There remained
nothing but to punish, The Marquis
turned sharply toward Stenio and APP
peared to demand if he had anything
more to say. The musician was mo-
tionless, overwhelmed. Then, going
to the door, the Marquis opened II and
said:
III think that you may go. In an
hour will be with my daughter. But
as do not desire to live in the same
city with you inform you that this
evening | shall start for England"
Marackzy bowed without word and
departed.
The Marquis heard the noise of his
steps on the staircase, then on the
deck. When the sound had ceased he
drew deep sigh, and seeing Kitty,
who had run In anxious to hear the re-
suit of this terrible interview. he held
out his arms. pressed her 10 his bosom
and burst into tears.

The sight of her father seemed to
revive Maud. She regained some OF
her lost strength, surmounted the hor-
rible gloom that beset her and became
cheerful. She could rise and take the
few steps TO the window. There she
passed delicious hours warmed by the
balmy light of the sun, caressed by the
yivifying breeze Of the sea, and divert
ed by the joyous movement on the
shore.
Any one but Stenio might have be-
lieved that the doctors were mistaken,
and that Maud still had enough vigor
to conquer her disease. But with q
singular penetration the great artist
realized the condition of his wife ex-
actly.
He saw her, momentarily exalted by
an unhoped- for Joy, battling against
the feebleness of her body. But he knew
that the contest would not be yictori-
GUS. and this fictitious energy ceasing
that poor Maud would fall again like a
wounded bird.
He watched with stricken heart
this revolt Of youth 80 strongly at
tached TO life, and believing still that
Il was only slender thread that re-
tanned her, he cursed the days that
flowed away so rapidly, full OF anguish
at thoughts of tomorrow that might
bring misfortune.
As he had said, Lord Mellivan had
left for England, but Daisy and Har-
riet had remained behind.
The constant presence of these two
women contributed 10 maintain Maud
in this moral we'll being, SO new fol

Every morning the young girl came

Frightened with her presence. She
went and came, sang, interrupted her

Maud, silent, looked at her, and i
seemed as IL all that she had suffered
was only painful dream. Nothing
of all that troubled her life was true

HIS TWO SIDES.

Mr.. Edward Fl. Ammidorm, of
Passsic, N. j., is president of the
American Protective Tariff League, an
organization which is sending out
much literature which has for its object
the convincing of the people that a high
protective tariff is good thing for
American workingmen. AS president
of the Leag1e Mr.. Ammidorm is very
active and earnest, and contributes
freely of his money to the advance
ment of the cause of protection.
It SO happens that the gentleman is
also the owner of large wooden mills in
Passaic. in which capacity he seems to
be an entirely different man to what he
is as president of 1.-The League. 1t was
recently shown that as owner of the
wooden mills he rad almost entirely
displaced his American and English
speaking operatives with cheap Hun
garians. all the time posing as the

hypocrisy, whereupon he attempted to
explain and defend his pharisacial con-
duct through a letter, to the journal
named. He did not help matters much.
He admitted that he employed the
Huugarians, but thought he ought not
to be blamed for it inasmuch as he did
not import them, but hired them from
the mining regions of Pennsylvania.
He continues: 81 am glad to have this
opportunity to say in their behalf that
there is no more faithful, sober, thrifty,
intelligent and selfrespecting class of
operatives in the country than these
same Hungarians."
Nobody questions Mr.. Ammidorm's
legal right to employ Hungarians, and
nobody denies that they do his work
we'll. The point is. that while profess
sing love and consideration for the
American laborer, and unfolding
the tariff on the ground that it is
necessary for the protection of native
workingmen, he is driving out and
starving that labor, by employing for
eigners who will work for lower wages
because they require less than the
American for their support.
Mr.. Ammidorm is fair example of
your high protectionist manufacturer.
If he is not humbug, what is he2 He
goes into thelabor market of the world.
and buys his labor as cheaply as he
can get it, but he insists upon high
tariff that the prices of his goods may
be kept up. He keeps the price of labor
down to the lowest possible point, in
order that the tariff may put more
money into his pocket.

THE IDAHO TEST OATH.


THE HERALD has held that the Idaho
election Law was statute to be inter
preted and applied literally; that it was
not law which could be made to cover
more or less than was set tout in its text,
according as different officials might de.
sire. 1t is plain statute, leaving moth
ing for private Interpretation. 1t says
that in order to vote, the in
diVidual must possess certain quail
fcations, which are enumerated.
The naming of these qualifications
bars all others. 1t says that the voter
must have resided in the Territory
four months, and the registrar and
election judge cannot change this and
make the period of residence three or
five months. The applicant for regis
tration must subscribe to an oath which
is set out in the statute, and that oath
cannot be added to or diminished. The
duty of the registrar is simply and
solely minis ;erial, The officer has no
judicial functions. When an individual
presents himself for registration, the
officer must require him to
take the electors oath. and that
being complied with the registrars
business with that particular citizen
has ended. If the applicant swears
falsely as to any of the specifications
in the oath if he commits perjury, that
is a matter for the courts.
The registration is now proceeding
in the Territory, the books having been
opened last Saturday. Inasmuch ss
there has been some question as to
whether or not Mormons would be per-
mitted TO register and vote, we are
pleased to note that the attorney
general of the Territory has officially
taken the position that the matter
is not one for the decision
or determination of the registrars
who have only plain duty to perform
The following correspondence is plain
and satisfactory. Judge Johnson reads
the law as it was written and as it was
intended to be applied:

as to the extent, scope and limit of my
powers under the first su o-division of sec.
504 of the Revised Statutes, in the matter OF
putting or permitting questions to be pnt 10
applicants for registration. Have 1 the
right under the law to ask or permita quail
