How Men Die.

II we know all the methods Of approach
adopted by an enemy We are the better en-
abled 10 ward off the danger and postpone
the moment when surrender becomes in
cvitable. In many instances the inherent
strength of the body sufticcs TO enable il To
oppose the tendency toward death. Many,
however, have lost these forces to such an
extent that there is little or no help. In
other cases a little aid to the weakened
Lungs will make all the difference between
sudden death and many years of useful lie
Upon the first symptoms of a Cough, Cold,
or any trouble of the Throat or Lungs, give
that old and well know remedy-Boschec's

OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES was
brought out as the central figure at the
laying of the corner stone of the new
public library building in Boston. His
seventy years have not greatly impaired
his vigor. The library there is said to
contain 100000 volumes, and is the
largest free library in the world. An
exhibition of pride over it is quite par
,donable.

NEW MEXICO.

An exchange thinks it is a grave
question whether New Mexico is quail
flied for admission. That impression is
easily acquiesced in when it is noted
that it is the only one of the territories
asking admission that elected Demo-
crat as delegate last month. Some may
not be aware that New Mexico has
population equal to that of Washington
or Montana. being put at $4,000; it has
increased from ten to twelve thousand
the past year. Its taxable property,
aside from realty, is S22,000,0O0. 1t has
1,130 miles of railroad, and will soon
more than double those figures. 1t has
nearly 100000 head of cattle and
sheep. The Anglo-Saxon element in
population will soon be overwhelming,
as there is large emigration of the
best class of settlers siuce ELKINs, DOR
SEY and the star-routerS have departed.
1t is shown by its criminal statistics
that it is as orderly as Maine or Massa-
chusetts. The people want the adj
,vantages of statehood, and the only
obstacle in the way is likely to be their
blunder in not voting the Republican
ticket more largely.

RESTORED RATES.
An Agreement Which Will Save
Roads Many Millions.

CHICAGO, Dec. 2.-The general man.
ayers of the roads between Chicago and
st. Louis, and the Atlantic seaboard.
after two days session, finally agreed
late lastnight to restore all rates to full
winter tariff, including dressed beef and
live stock rates. Great interest
was felt all over the country in the
outcome of the negotiations, for
the reason that it was believed that il
the managers could fix up rates on
east-bound business the trunk lines
would speedily reach a settlement on
weSt-bOund traffic from the seaboard.
The managers were flooded with tele-
grams from the East and cablegrams
from London making inquiries as to
what was being done. Over forty i'm
portant roads were represented, and the
proposed advance in rates will, it is eSti-
mated, save to the lines interested
many million dollars during the COM
ing winter.

THE MOST POPULAR MAN.

There is no disposition to aggravate
anybody or his friends in New York,
but the belated figures show that the
man who polIed the most votes and had
the largest majority on the Democratic
ticket was not named HILL at all. 1t
was JoNEs-just plain JONES, of Bing-
hamton. He was elected by about $4,000
more votes than his opponent. and will
be governor of the state should any un-
fortunate fatality overtake the head of
the state ticket before the next election.
No reason appears why his vote should
not be taken as the real Democratic
strength. He had 434 more votes than
HARRISON and nearly 11,000 more than
CLEVELAND. If the ballot box shows
that New York has favorite son, why
should it not be JONES? The fame of
this particular JONES has fingered in
the East. but if there are demands in
the future it may expand.

A. County Named Norman.


Norman County Index
The st. Paul GLOBE we are glad to state. is
agitating the reapportionment question, and
we hope it will keep on agitating it until
justice is done this corner of the state. In
doing SO that paper publishes series of ia
bles and estimates of the number of senators
and representatives the several counties are
really entitled to, but by some mistake has
LETT out Norman county altogether. The
GLOBE will please make note of the fact
that there is a Norman county, with popu-
lation in 1885 of 1885. and 10000 in 1883.
Norman county is in the Forty fifth sena-
torial district, with Polk, Marshall, Kittson
and Beltramf, ana this district has a popula-
ton of Al ,O13 in 1885 instead of SO, Cos, as
quoted in the GLOBE. To represent this H.
VI we have one senator and one representa-
tive. instead of three senators and four repre-
sentatives we are entitled to, according to
the GLOBES method of redistricting. The
GLOBE should also remember that our repre-
sentation is much more out of proportion
now than the above figures show. The Al, :
OILS population in 1885 is certainly nearly
1000 now. and we are growing faster than
any other portion of the state. This fact
should be taken into consideration in redis-
tricting.
