When Lawler Returns.'

Bismarck Tribune: District Attor-
ney Owens, of Kingsbury county takes
Treasurer Lawler to task for not re-
mitting certain taxes due the county
paid by the railroads on their gross
earnings. Owens writes to the gov
ernor about it-requesting that the
public examiner look into the mat
ter and find out the cause of the delay.
Owens intimates in his letter that
perhaps the money is being held by the
treasurer for private speculative pur-
poses. Mr.. Owens is the first man
who has charged anything wrong
against the territorial treasurer thus
far and Mr.. Lawler can doubtless ex-
plain matters satisfactorily when he
returns.

controlled us in our work. Words can
not express the deep feeling of graft
tude which we feel towards you, for
all you have done for us. We shall
miss your influence and kind words of
encouragement. We fully realize that
we have caused you unnecessary anxi-
ETY., but we beg that you will cherish
only those remembrances of us which
we could wish you to carry into the
future. AS the western miner washes
away the earth to obtain the gold, so
pass our imperfections by and retain
only the golden thoughts, if any such
there be. Farewell, may you each re-
ceive rich reward for your noble
efforts in our behalf. And now dear
classmates: Here we are at the place
for which we have worked and longed
and yet it is not altogether with feel
ings OF gladness, that we bid farewell
to school-days. Today we separate;
today we launch ourboats on the great
wide sea Of life, to sail we know not
whittier. For some of us school-days
are ended, and we must enter on an
entirely different line of work. Some
will go into the higher walks of learn
ing, for this is only one milestone to a
complete education. But whatever our
callings may be, we shall think with
pleasure of our work together.
Oh! high have we planted our standard,
Bravely our banner llnfurled,
And we know that the glad time coming
Will find lis place i'll the world.
In the unavoidable absence of Presi-
dent Dundas of the aboard of education,
Judge Edgerton conferred the di.
plomas on the graduates, in a few we'll
chosen remarks, in which he compIi-
mented the members of the graduating
class most highly. And, indeed, they
deserved the good words that he spoke,
as we'll as the hearty applause with
which their several efforts were re-
ceived, and the generous profusion of
floral compliments, which their admir-
ing friends showered upon them, The
subjects were all we'll chosen, and were
a departure from the conventional line
of commencement exercises, while
the style Of treatment and manner of
presentation were creditable in each
instance.
After a closing number by the or
chestra, Rev.S. ]. Vinegar pronounced
the benediction, and the third annual
commencement Of the Mitchell high
school was at an end.
The members of the class and their
teacher are under especial obligations
to the ladies who so kindly contributed
the flowers for decorating the stage, to
those who arranged the decorations so
tastefully, and to all who in any way
lent assistance in preparation.

TIE VALUE OF CHARACTER.

Nothing, said she, should be more
valued in an intelligent community
| than good character, Yet how little
attention is paid, by some, to character
nowadays. Some think if person
has wealth, it does not make much diff
ference what his character is. 1t is
true that wealth may command respect
| in some cases, but 1T is so much easier
| to acquire wealth than character, that
they never can be placed on the same
llevel. While man lives, we count him
greatest who possesses most, but when
he dies we count him greatest who has
been most. 1t is only necessary to
know of Edgar Allen Poe, that he was
a man of weak will, without the mas
terry of himself; a dissipated man; a
man Of morbid feeling, to realize thathe
could never write poem that possessed
any intrinsic value. His character was
without value, and we find his poems
| one continued selfish wall over lost life
and love. No human soul ever quotes
his words for comfort or inspiration.
| Byron Is an even more conspicuous
example than Poe of the effect of
bad character upon literature. He
was much greater than Poe in genius;
broader in culture and bolder in his
vice. He embodies his character in
his verse with great ingenuity. Our
own LongfelloW and Bryant were men
of character as are Whittier, Lowell
and Holmes; knowing the lives of any
of these men is to know that their
works are good. Washington, whose
name is dear to every American, was
distinguished, not only for bravery
and intelligence, but for the pureSt
virtues which can adorn the human
heart. Emerson says: "Character
teaches above our wills. Men imagine
that they communicate their virtue or
vice only by overt actions and do not
see that virtue or vice emit a breath
every moment" So we should live in
the best company whether it be OF
books or men. "Reputation is the
shadow cast by character" The desire
of an honored name exists in all; who
can endure the thought that when he
is committed to the earth, no tear will
ever fall on his grave; no thought of a
friend eyer be directed to his tomb?
Then turning to those about her.

But love of country implies some
thing more than being willing to flight
for her.
IT we wish to enjoy freedom we
must project the purity of the ballot.
A man who claims to be citizen,
should perform all the duties such
citizenship imposes.
In Washingtons farewell address to
his army he urged them, as they knew
the value OF liberty, and wished for the
success of the confederation, not to
ayoW themselves as citizens of the
north, south, east, or west, but to unite
and by brotherly love to secure the
welfare Of the common Countrywide
United States of America. In this
manner can we make practical the
words of the great statesman, Daniel
Webster, Liberty and union now and
forever ono and inseperable''.
Miss Edna M. Wright expatiated in
an interesting manner upon the true
extent and significance of
WONIAN'S SPHERE,
as follows:
Eighteen hundred years ago st. Paul
declared that woman's place was that
OF keeper Of the house. and ever
since this has been the popular theory
Since the world began, woman has
occupied every conceivable position
from that of a serf who carries the
water, to that of a queen, ruler over
many people.

is physically weaker; she may be, vet in
many cases she will endure a much

that she is not.
You say that woman should never
endeavor to take upon herself the bur.
dens of business because she is not
equal to the strain.
Let us slook at a few examples. Where
is there man who shows more bus

Nightingale?
Has England ever had a more pros.
porous reign than the present one, and
that with a woman on the throne !:
Queen Victoria has shown one charac.

the fact that she is as we'll able to rule
a kingdom as to manage her domestic
| affairs.
Where is there book which has
greater influence, than has Uncle
Toms Cabin? BY this Harriet Beech
er Stowe aroused the north to a reali.
zation of the horrors of slavery, and
thus hastened the day of freedom.
AS long as woman allows herself tc
be inferior, she will be considered as
such. Butifshe strives to make herself
mans equal, she will without doubt be
so considered.
Speaking of woman's choice OF
work, Susan Hayes Ward says: sI1
deciding what to undertake, it is safe
to lay down the rule The thing tc
make money by, is the one thing you
can do best.
So if we would help woman and hel

must do what we can do best, in the
best way.

IN SIGHT.

After a desperate h~and-to-hand con-
test with forces intrenched behind the
almost imprcgnahle rampant OF federal,
state and municipal patronage in the
great Empire state, the republican
party is in sight OF glorious victory. All
our advices up to two o'clock
this morning indicate that Har-
rison and Morton have carried
New York. The plurality cannot be
definitely given, but estimates Of we'll
informed men Of both parties vary from
ten to fifteen thousand.
Indiana is also reported as carried by
General Harrison, although that state
is uncomfortably close, as far as heard
from. Republicans everywhere are jubi-
liant, and await with intense anxiety the
completion Of the count and announce
ment of the full returns.
Our W state. Nebraska, still remains
near the head Of the republican column,
with at least twenty-five thousand ma
iority for the national ticket. The des-
perate onslaught on Governor Thayer
has somewhat reduced his majority,
but left his competitor still way
behind in the race. The plot of the
railroad managers to defeat Attorney
General Leese has, we feel confident.
miscarried, although no pains and no
means were spared to beat him. This
much, at least, we feel safe to assert
with the incomplete returns that have
reached us up to the hour of going to

A MI DEFEATS HEWITT.

Hugh j. Grant, the Tammany candl-
date for mayor of New York. is elected
by II majority OF from twenty to twenty
five thousand, u most decisive victory
that will restore to Tammany the full
control of affairs in that city, which
means patronage amounting to fifty mil
lion dollars a year. At this writing we
are not in possession OF the vote re-
ceived by the other candidates, Hewitt,
nominated by the county democracy and
independent citizens, Erhardt, the re-
publican candidate, and Coogan, the
candidate of the union labor party,
but it is evident that none
of these polled the vote he
was expected to do. and that Hewitt
especially fell far short of what he and
his supporters had counted upon. 1t will
probably transpire that more or less
trading was done to the advantage OF
Grant, for the interest of Tammany was
more largely concerned in his election
than in the success of either the state or
national tickets, but a moro plausible
explanation is doubtless to be found in
tilc ldCl IudJ 81 luf as IlcWllJ 10 CoL-
cerned the foreign element was gener-
ally arrayed against him. He has I'M
~qucstionably made an efficient mayor,
giving New York city a cleaner and more
business-like administration than it
has had before in a number of years,
but his course in certain respects has
been offensive to the foreign elements,
and in nearly all respects ~displeasing to
the democratic politicians of the Tam
many class.
Grant is the present sheriff Of New
York county, and it is claimed for him
that he has made an efficient and honest
Official. But his capabilities for the
much more important duties of the
mayOralty have been questioned. AT
all events ne is a thorough Tammany
partisan and his administration will be
conducted on lines agreeable to the
wishes of that political faction. This
means a complete change in the per-
sonel of the city government and the
transfer of the vast patronage into the
hands OF Tammany, which, in view of
past experience, cannot be regarded as
a cheerful outlook for the metropolis of
the nation.

Nor only Nebraska but Minnesota
among other western states is cursed by
railroad interference in its elections.
The Pioneer-Pres a conservative news
paper, states that it has trustworthy ad-
vices from authentic sources that the
railroad companies of Minnesota re-
quested their employees to vote for GER
tain candidates. Of course such a re-
quest was to all intent and purpose a
command. There are twenty thousand
railroad employees in Minnesota. If the
railroads can pull the strings and throw
the votes of this army of men for their
candidates, the railroads can control
the elections in that state. 1t is to be
hoped that the railroad employees repu-
dated this dictation of corporations as
one man. The sentiment of the people
of Minnesota has too often expressed
itself to tolerate any candidate elected
by such questionable means in the in
terest Of monOpolies.
