How a French Prince Was Ordered About In
the West.

Cnfcago Ilmes-
The Prince Of the House Of Orleans. Of France
of course-M. do Boissy. is in the city. he is
facing the sun IN his travels, having arrived
here from the Occident A story on the Prince:
He was coming east when be arrived at the
gates OF the Yosemite. Here he concluded to
turn aside, like Rasselas, the Prince of Abys-
sinia. but for o different reason. When the
traveller enters the Yosemite valley be leaves
the railroad and takes mp with the staee-coach.
Over a winding way be sees how fantasncal nat
at a country inn under the shadow of some
strangely-fashioned mountain: Dinner, or
whatever the meal may be, Is waiting. In thus
valley there are no coronets. except those which
the Creator has placed upon the peaks that
glisten in the sun. There are no titles except
those which explorers have bestowed upon the
chasms and canyons that open with . silence
which is awe-inspiring. 8
The Prince of Orleans found this out. He
had to cram for a plate just the same as did
our own D. Harry Hammer when he rushed for
his chair. 1t 10 related. to the Prince's credit,
that be conformed to the custom Of American
haste. and SCOT there" In the midst OF his re.
past the Prince Dethoueht him of a message
which he desired to give bis valet, and left his
chair and plate for that purpose. There was .
long, lank and hungry Ohioen by the same Of
Harrison, who was waiting for a chair, end
when the Prince Quit his, Mr.. Harrison s~quattsd
where royalty had been, showed the unfinished
meal aside. and turning to the waiter said In Q
high key: Here, bring me some meat, and
corn, and potatoes, and bread. and some Dailk
and butter, ard be quick as you can"
At this moment the Prince returned and
found his seat taken by the gentleman from
Ohio. The Prince demonstrated with tho waiter
for his negligence In allowing another to take
his place in . manner that dazed M. dc Garcon
so that his tongue Glove to the roof OF his mouth.
During the imperial demonstrates the Prince
shifted his position SO that he was between the
back Of Mr.. Harrison and garcon. Mr.. Harrison

Prince, whom he did not know. said:
Here, why in the blank and blanknation
don't you bring me that meat and them potatoes
and quit standing around there like a mile
stonel Now hump yourself"
By this time the Prince saw that Mr. Har-
risou had mistaken him for the waiter, and
changed his position. The Prince, however,
whom hs was made acquainted with the situa-
ton. laughed at il. and said he would have to
tell it when he got back to his own county.

stitutions and State governments and he ad-
mitted into the Union. Pending the prepare
ton for statehood, all officers thereof should
be selected from the bona fde residents and
citizens of the Territory wherein they are to
serve. South Dakota should of right be i'm
mediately admitted as a State in the Union,
under the Constitution framed and adopted
by the people, and we heartily indorse the
action of the Republican Senate in twice
passing bills for her admission. The refusal
of the Democratic House of Representatives,
for partisan purposes, to favorably consider
these bills, is a willful violation of the sacred
American principle of local self-government,
and merits the condemnation Of all just men.
The pending bills in the Senate for acts to en-
able the people of Washington, North Dakota
and Montana Territories to form constitutions
and establish State governments should be
passed without unnecessary de ay. The Re
publican party pledges itself to do all in its
power to facilitate the admission of the Terri
tories of New Mexico, Wyoming. Idaho and
Arizona to the enjoyment Of seif-government
as States, such of them as are now qualified,
as soon as possible, and the others as soon as
they may become so.
The political power of the Mormon Church
IN the Territories, as experienced IN tue pdst,
is q menace to free institutions, too dangerous
to be long suffered. Therefore, we pledge the
Republican party to appropriate legislation
asserting the sovereignty of the Nation in all
Territories where the same is questioned, and
in furtherance of sthat end to place upon the
statute books legislation stringent enough to
divorce the political from the ecclesiastical

Since the advent of the Chicago, Bur-
lington & Northern Railroad into the
Northwest, employing as its trade
marx the words 1.-The Burlington, as
indicating the .'system" to which it
belongs, considerable curiosity has
been manifested to know what is
1.-The Burlington system" 1t is "a
family of railroads, SO to speak, and
here they are:
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Rail
road, the only and original 'Bullig-
ton, and father OF all, covering a
good portion of Illinois and Iowa

To Cream Prodncers.

The time for making plans for 1855 is
upon us and we who are interested in the
creamery will do well to have in mind
the coming seasons business. We can
reasonably expect a much larger make of
butter in 1883 than we had in 1887, and
let each patron of the Crystal Spring
Creamery use his full influence to make
the business a more perfect success even
than it was last year. This may be done
by inducing those to sell cream who did
not prepare for it last season, by putting
up ice and preparing to furnish cream of
the best quality only, by planting fodder
corn and being ready with something to
keep up the flow of milk when the pas
lures get short and by unity of effort in
all things.
By increasing the amount of business,
you viii make the expense of operating
proportionally less and the price of cream
higher. Thus the creamery business is
sort of partnership of which every
farmer is a member, and the highest pos
sible prices can only be secured by the
hearty cooperation of every partner.
Last summer was dry season, the
business was new to you and yet proved
very successful. The coming season will
be more profitable, and as | thank You
all for past patronage and solicit your CO.
operation for the future, / promise that
will not neglect to do my share, and thus
working together for the building up of
the dairy and creamery business, the
highest possible success is assured.
Very truly yours,

The dwelling of Charles Stevenson
on Cascade Avenue near the Normal,
caught lire between twelve and one
O'Clock last Saturday from an over
heated stove in an upper room, while
the family were at dinner, and the
two-story main part was leveled to
the ground. The fire caught in the
partition behind the stove and ran
into the attic where it was dis.
covered by neighbOr who gave the
alarm. The bells brought out the fire
company and citizens promptly, and
the house was quickly emptied of its
contents. while bucket lines to the
wells near by were making an ineffeet-
ual effort to stay the progress of the
flames. 1t finally occurred to some
one that at the Normal were two 500
barrel cisterns. aud that the engine
might be made serviceable. The ma
chine was dragged through the deep
snow to one of the cisterns, five hun.
bred feet of hose unrolled and a pow
erful stream turned into the flames,
which soon proved its supremacy over
the tirery element and prevented the
destruction of the L part. The loss
on the building was about $1,000. In
surance $500. Too much praise cannot
be bestowed upon the members of the
fire company for their interchangeable
and effective efforts, and the citizens
generally lent their aid with CON-
mendable zeal. 1t was the unanimous
