The large room of the high school build
ing has just been furnished with the Yer
mont School Seat Company's desks and
seats. The seats are made on new prin-
ciple of construction for folding, and are
without doubt, the best seat on the
market. This particular lot is made of
selected birds eye maple and finished in
white shellac, making probably the most
elegantly furnished school room in New
England. The seats are manufactured in
large quantities at the Champlain shops
by Charles H. Emerson g. Co. and are sent
all over the country.

WHAT HAVE WE TO FEAR7

Speaking with ali candor; nationally
considering our situation knowing what
unbounded success we have enjoyed in
years passed, and what success for the
future, not only what We entertain nor
hope for, but that We ate really entitled
to through our advantages, gifted to us
by Natures impartial mercy: ".What
have We to fear7" Dear readers think,
reason, thoroughly digest each thought,
both on the sunny and cloudy side OF
this argument, and then render true,
and impartial verdict. "Name the town
Of our population 10 the Pacific north
west that is more promising than our
own little spot-Lewiston." Nature has
endowed her with every advantage. She
is approachable at every sido by facilities
that ourselves and produce to the outer
world can be conveyed. She is blessed
with advantages. At every point Of the
compass lies an agricultural country that
cannot be excelled on the face Of the
known world. Not only in agriculture
can she maintain her position in promin-
ence, but at the east and north Of her,
she contains drawers to the treasury
vaults of the United States, and through
proper diligence and industry, Lewiston
may well become one Of the important
factors Of utilizsrs Of this great treasury
box of our country.
To accomplish this end, our moneyed
men must necessarily be our leaders
money talks and literally invested il
invariably winner; bear allegiance
against your own conscience when tn
twig is 90 bent. Lewiston has q mos
bright and prosperous future, and re
member in the words of the prophet, 81
dollar invested in your own dear hom
that is well cared for, will yield you al
income ten fold"

Nh. EDITOR: It does beat all, how
ready the merchants Of this town are to
jump in and build up competitive points
Of trade. Just put side track up any
little gulch and the first train takes out
a colony Of the monied men, with their
shell buildings aud stock In trade to
establish q branch store and town; 90
mighty concerned are they that they
won't gat every mans custom, they'll
almost take their packs on their backs
and 60 to his door. This policy has
been almost fatal to the commercial
progress of Lewiston. How would it
have been had they concentrated their
business right here, and then compete
with Portland and other centres? Only
the difference in freight would have to
be added when We should have had a
market 30 favorable that trade would
have been drawn in here like water to a
whirlpool. But no! the haste 10 get
rich has nurtured the policy of maintain
ing the highest price the traffic would
bear, sending out their packs when trade
was dull and setting up a branch when
they happen to strike q paper town with
boom on the end Of it. Suppose our
grist miller down here, with his fine mill
and machinery, should turn bis water
over to Genesee, or to the new town
across the river, We would call him a
cranss, for without "water on his Wheel
he couldn't nm. Well our merchants
do Just this same sort Of business they
build costly store houses fine dwellings,
houses, making an incentive for other
kinds of business to start here and then
with sort Of "I'm going to get ahead
of that other fellow" air, start out with
their packs to keep people from coming
here to turn our wheel for us. Twas
just the other day, only, when rumor
came that the N. p, was coming over
and going to Camas Prairie ono Of our
more enterprising if not 50 intelligent
traders sent scouts out South Of
here to watch whether it was going
up Critics gulch or Tammauy, go as to
be the FIRST ready with his "pack" to
start branch on the new road. Now,
this is encouraging. isn't it? for our
blacksmiths, wheelwrishts, painters, car
penters and other industrial pursuits, to
try to do anything to make good town.
Why. if l had my way I'd send least
for everything had to buy, unless they
pursued a more reciprocal policy. But
mol my wife says, patronize home
industry, if you bust, We mustn't do
wrong because others do. Nevertheless,
between you and me, much Of the
"easteIn trade" is carried on because
Of the evils above mentioned.

Drifting Clouds is based upon the
maudlin weakness Of gambler and

might pay his debts, betrays his daughters
affection for Robert Trucman, her be-
trothed, and compels her 10 marry Sir
Charles Melville, libertine and roue.
lie soon tires of her, and after striking her
and informing her that their marriage is
illegal ON account OF his former wife being
still alive, she returns 10 England and
seeks protection at the house of her former
lover, Trueman. Sir Charles comes TO q
secluded spot on the Woolwich road at
her bidding for a final interview. Here he
meets his former valet, Francois, who
seeks revenge for his wronged sister, and
Melville is killed in the struggle that en-
sues. Philinc, crazed by sorrow and by
shame, wandering on the road, finds his
body, and is discovered with the weapon
in her hand by Trueman, who had come
10 fight Melville. This furnishes a subject
for strong climax. lie is still faithful "a
her, cares for her, and the denouement
finds Francois acknowledging his crime
aud establishing the fact that Philine wa'
Sir Charles Melville's legitimate wife. The
drifting clouds OF sorrow having vanished
happiness is restored 10 all.

A KIND ROBBER.
He Proposes TO Give $500, 900 for the
Sum OF 5000.


APPLETON, Wis, Jan. l0.-About eight
years ago the man named X. A. Krona,
mentioned rs the probable robber OF the
Stockholm bank, came TO tins town from
Milwaukee, and introduced himself TO
tailor Of this city named J. f. Peterson,
who came from Stockholm. He told Pet
erson that he would like 10 have private
interview with him, and insisted on going
down to the river bank. Once there, and
satisfying himself that no one was within
hearing distance, he told Peterson that he
and confederate robbed bank in Stock
holm OF nearly 81 100000; that the con-
federate was arrested on suspicion, and
that he (krona), becoming alarmed, had
hidden the greater part oft there and come
20 America; that nearly two years had
passed and he thought he could return
with safety and get the money; that he
lacked about $500 Of having enough money
TO return and get IL, and II Peterson
would loan IL 10 him he would give him
$4,000. Peterson questioned him and he
unfoldcd TO him just how the robbery was
planned and carried ont and where the
money was hid, but sud nothing about
killing the janitor Of the bank. Peterson
told him he did not care 20 have anything
10 do with him, and lac told Peterson lac
was "no good, and that he would be
sorry before long. krona acted 30 ncryously
and suspiciously OF everybody, and related
the story In such an excited manner, that
Peterson thought he was trying TO dupe
him, or that he was n crank. While he
was here he refused to go TO hoiel be-
cause he would have 10 register, and al
though he was finely dressed and had
money, he walked from here TO Neonah 10
take the night train back to Milwaukee.
Those who remember seeing Krona here
with Peterson say that the description Of
the X. A. krona tallics exactly with the
man who was here. Peterson says there
Is no doubt but that the two men are
identical.
