Tie REGISTER has repeatedly made
more or less complimentary reference to
one Mr.. Mshlon Chance, He is remen-
bared by the psople of Wheeling as paid
scent of the Republ' can National Com
mlttse, WHO came to this community as
high tariff missionary. Mr.. Chance soon
discovered that his high tx, Low wages
go.pel wasn't what the workingmen OF
whssling were seeking for snl hNtily be-
took himst If 20 whence he came.
But before his deFa ture Re made come
IemsrSs pertinent to, the tar.ff gu s.iln,
that have since brought him into IN n
viab' rrcmineres. The REGISTER pab-
lished those s'atensnts ct tEat time. Mr.,
Chance immsdiat IL and emphstically de

fatal admissions, that sum wss to 90 to

The chs lleDge was nevsr accepted.
After mature reflection We ere con-
WINGED that the snm of $1G0 YVES zoo small

this challenge and increase tbs forfeit.

THE NATIONS ACT.

The election OF Benjamin Harrison to
the Presidency shows that four years Of
rule by the Democratic Party has been
enough for the American People. The
Republican Party took the sdministra.
ton Of public affairs when it was most
embarrassed, stood At the helm Ct the
ship of state and guided it through the
most trying ordeals in the history of our
own or Of any land, and after Is years Of
judicious government gave up the offices.
without any contest save the silent,
bloodless ore Of ballots. The country
was prosperous, the financial credit of
the government had besa raised from the
standard Of q weak rebellion torn coun.
try to one higher than that Of any other
nation. Yet for twenty years the PEG.
pie had heard the clamors Of the Demo-
cratic Party for Reinstatement in the
position it had SO unwoithily filed. on
the ground that the Republicans were
raycals, At last, yielding to these i'm.
portunities the people gave the old party
a new trial. It was soon found that the
Republican administration had been, 50
far as honesty and integrity went. prac-
tically perfect. Four years of examina.
ton by thousands Of experts have failed
to End . flaw in the books that had been
turned over, and every department Of the
government has been proved to have
been better administered than it ever
had been under Democratic rule. In
addition to these things the Democratic
Party has broken every pledge it made
when asking to be rut in power. 1t is
no wonder, therefore that the people 80
quickly gave it its final discharge. 1t is
perhaps well for the country that the
change Of administration for four years
was made; because any party con.
tinuously in power too long would be.
come corrupt and tyrannical. 1t is Ger.
tainly well that the Democratic admins.
tration will be ended before their party
will have had an opportunity to place
the country in as bad plight as it had
done 10 1850.
With regard to Benjamin Harrison, be

enough public experience to fit him for

Az to Grover Cleveland We will hear
no more Of him except in connection
with what blunders and wrongs he may
be able to crowd into the few months re-

True Source of the Mississippi.

Parties from Minneapolis while on a
hunting expedition near Lake Itasca,
discovered that neither the Lake Itasca
nor Lake Glazier (properly Elk Lake)w was
the source of the Mississippi River. The
true source is number of large springs
that pour out from the mountain about
three miles southeast of Itasca. The
springs burst out from the foot of the
mountain and form small, round lake
about forty yards in diameter. This
lake has an outlet-a creek about q
rod wide-which flows northwest for o
mile and half and forms another lake
In a ravine. This creek is from six
inches to ten inches deep at this season
of the year, and in wet season much
larger and deeper, and is fed by numerous
other small streams, as is also the second
lake. The creek runs on through the
second lake, which is about sixty yards
vide by eighty or ninety long. After
leaving this lake the stream flows on to-
ward Itasca, rapidly increasing in width
and depth till it is from one to two feet
deep and in the neighDorhood Of thirty
feet wide. There is no doubt that this
is the true source of the Father of
Waters, as the volume of water that
flows in by this channel is vastly more
than that which comes from Lake Gla-
zier. From the latter there is only a
small stream, three or four feet wide
and two or three inches deep. There are
other streams emptying in the principal
one described and which aid in increas-
ing the volume of water which flows
into the itasca. On the west anoth or
creek empties into axe Itasca which also
helps to feed the Mississippi. This creek
is somewhat smaller than the one first
described, but still carries a considerable
volume of water with it. The informa-
ton concerning the new discovery is yet
incomplete and is being he'd back by
those who know the most about it until
they can get the most minute details. -
