Whatever we say OF Linen
we can never say a better word
than that Linen here is really
Linen. How many stores can
you make sure OF that in !?
We were never in better
shape with Fine Linen. In
Tablecloths or Table Linen by
the yard the three best makes
now are Irish, German, Scotch.
Irish for extreme fneness and
extra weight; German for fine
ness, softness, and good de-
signs Scotch for pattern, quail
ity, and wear. Scotch design
ers have been brushing up a
bit. Any one of these makes
Is good enough Linen for any
body.
Take Irish. Tablecloths, with
Napkins to match, tea, lunch or
dinner sizes. Cloth big enough
to spread a table IS or 20 feet
long and yard and a-half wide.
Whatever the design--rose or
daisy or leaf perhaps-it lies in
relief on the snowy ground as

the goods OF one maker; the
best OF half a dozen makers.
Patterns culled here and there
wherever the choicest could be
had.

A press teIeeram from Aberdeep date

A press telegram from Aberdeen, dated
the 1lth. contains this information rela.
tive to the project OF Yanktonian:
Gen. Hugh j. Campbell is now en-
gagged in o plan of developing the idea
of great system of canals traversine
the plains of Dakota and linking together
its natural water courses, the Missouri,
the Red River OF the north, the Sioux,
James snd other streams which, by
more or less improvement, can be made
to do service as feeders OF the great
natural channel OF commerce, the
Mississippi river. Gen. Campbell states,
as the result OF his inquiries, that nearly
every person with whom he has talked
confirms his opinion that system OF in
ternal canals would be entirely prac-
ticable, and that in region SO general.
iy level and aboupding in natural
channels such system could be dug
and equipped at rnininum expense.
The plan would, of conrse, necessitate
the deepening of river beds, measures
to prevent the formation OF bars and
short canals at points where the course
of the stream diEerges widely, OF whore
permanent channel is impracticable
from any cause.
In the st. Paul Pioneer Press OF Satur.
day is q long article from an Aberdeen
correspondents upon the same subjvct
giving the plan in detail and fully en-
dorsing II. General Uampbell's PROPOSE
ton is to secure government appsopria-
tions for the work, as ii is too vast to be
undertaken by private capital.

The Baptists of central Dakota have
decided to hold ministerial institute
at Huron next June.
The Queen Weakened.


London, Aug. l0-The North German
Gazette stated In small, unobtrustive
paragraph the other day, thst the papers
OF the late Emperor Frederick, which
had been taken to England, had been
returned. An upinformed reader OF the
paragraph would scarcely have believed
that it was the announcement of the
termination of an international difficulty
which might easily have culminated IN
war between England and Germany.
The papers which Queen Victoria took
from Oharlottenburg, when she visited
her daughter and dying sonin-law, we're
state papers, and belonged to Germany.
Prince Bismarck informed Queen Vic
torIa OF this fact and asked that the
documents be returned to their owners
The queen. however, did not look at the
matter in the same manner that the Ger.
man chancellor did, and refused TO SUR
render che papers, of which she had
possessed herself OF large trunk full.
The second summons for the delivery OF
the documents was not so gentle, and
were addressed to Lord Salisbury, and
set forth that the papers were the pro-
perty OF Germany and that the
queen had no more right to take them
out of the country. OF in any way touch
them, than she had to walk in and csrry
off the crown Jewels. The iron chan
cellor accompanied this demand for the
papers with q grim threat, that unless
they were restored he would send an
army to London, which wonld accom-.
plish their return. Lord Salisbury's
efforts to make the stubborn queen see
that she had no right to do as she had
done and to convince her that the doon.
ments must be given up, caused the
worthy premier to have Q. relapse OF his
old enemy, tie gout, end 70 be really i'll
over the acoumuiating troubles.
Pending the queens decision 60 sur.
render the papers, the English govern
ment was cut off from official news from
the German court, and Lord Salisbury
Has not permitted to know anything
regarding the arrangements between
Germany and Russia for the disposition
of Bulgaria. The queen held out for
some time, but finally gave in, although
in her heart, there is new born hatred
OF Bismarck and the Germans. Now that
Bismarck has accomplished what he sat
ont to do, the Immediate friction is re-
moved and the wheels OF state move
essier between Germeny and England
though the queens unwise aot will long
prevent q perfect exchange of reciprocal
atste courtesy.

entitled an act explanatory of an act
passed in 1857, which granted TO several
states an amount equal to per cent on
ell land in lndian reservations In such
states. estimating the land at $l.25 an
acre. For number of Years after the
passage OF the aet OF 1857, the states of
Minnesota, Oregon, Kansas, Nebraska q
and Nevada, which had been admitted
after the passage of the bill. were paid
i've per cent on Indian lands and per-
manent reservations therein, but on the
50th of June, 1885, the department OF
the interior suspended sll payments 50
the states named, on the ground
shat the act OF 1857 was not
perfect in its character and could
not be made to apply to states
which were admitted after It's passage.
This decision, which was promulgated
by Secretary Lamar. was based on an
opinion of the attorney general, and was
in direct opposition to the decision of
former commissioners OF the general land
office and first comptrollers OF the
treasury: Governor Thayer, early in
the aession, called attention to this in.
Justice. Senators Paddock and Teller
at once set to work to remedy the wrong
The report which accompanies the bill
states that, in view OF the conflicting
opinions and decisions, and the manifest
injustice occasioned thereby TO states
admitted into the union since March
1857, legislative action ia necessary in
order to place the states on an equal
footing as guaranteed by congress in
the several acts OF admission. II con
sideretion can be obtained in the house
there is no doubt that the passage OF the
measure will be secured in that body.

Chairman Republican County Committee.

The address OF James G. Blaine at
Nsw York, in response to the address of
welcome rendered him at the great re-
ception, did not omit the expected re-
ference to the tariff issue, given from
the standpoint OF an observsnt Ameri-
can Citizen fresh from the labor fields OF
Europe. He presented the case in prac-
tical language. He said he found all
England united upon the opinion that
"Oleveland embodies in his person the
regular form of revenue and free trade
for the United States which they like"
Continuing, Mr. Blaine said:
Now I have no objection to their right
of opinion, nor do intend to speak dis
respectfully Of the English, for I have
received at their hands very graceful
and cordial hospitality which would be
churl not to acknowledge before an
American audience. But chat does not
affect pending eonditions-that the
American people find their interest In
one policy, and that the English want to
change that policy &c as better to con-
form to their interests. And that, gen.

II am glad this meeting is called in
the name of the lsboring people, because
this question is from first to last, from

eat as poor food and receive as low wages

cratic administration wants to see. But

he vetoed the bill making 10 hours

8 He vetoed the bill abolishiug con-
vict labor in prisons, although this pro-
position, when submitted to che popn.
lar vote Of the people, was carried by q

He vetoed the child labor bill pro-
viding for the inspection of factories

which bill benefited only the iereign

Senator Dawes denies emphatically
the statement that he has expressed
himself in favor of congressional en-
actment opening the Sioux reservation
in Dakota without the consent OF the In
dians. he says the treaty stipulations
OF 1868 require the assent OF three.
fourths of the Indians to o surrender OF
any portion of their reservation and,
in the face of this provision, it ls an alb
surdity to quote him as favorlng con-
gressional act in violation thereof.
Senator Dawes deprecstes the conclu-
sions OF the Indians in the council al
Standing Rock and is of the opinion
that they are antagonizing an excellent
business arrangement in their own be-
half.
Senator Dawes may progress suffi
oiently to conclude that, as the Indians
have given cersain evidence OF their in
competency to provide for their own fu-
ture, it will be better for the Indians
for the government to assume full
guardianship and manage their business
for them. The proposition which finds
favor is that the government, through
congress, shall abolish the practice oi
making treaties with its Indians and il
this is accomplished it carries with it
the sbrogation OF all former treaties
The treaty of 1868 was lost sight OF in
1876, when the Black Hills and theis
surroundings were oedsd. Upon that
OCCASION the chiefs and head men signed
the agreement for the surrender of the
Black Hills. There are hopes that
Senator Dawes and ell other senators
will be converted to improved methods
OF the Indian management.
