Seven Years Asleep.

Minnesota furnishes IN instance Of a
seven year sleeper in the person of a
man named Herman Harms, residing at
Utica, in that state. Referring to this
wonderful sleeper the st. Paul Globe
says:
Unlike the Ephesian ~sleepers, the
Minnesota sleeper aWakens every dav,
but only long enough to take nourish
ment, and then is off IN dreamland
again. Day after day, month after
month, year after year, for seven long
years. Herman Harms has been sleeping
his life away. 1t is "A peculiar affection
to be sent upon IA person, that of being
dead and yet alive. So far as the pur-
poses of mans creation are concerned.
of filling a sphere of usefulness and
activity, ofproyiding for himselfand fam
lily, and of contributing a part, however
small and humble, to the sum total of
human e~Xlstance, it seems that it would
have been better if Herman Harms had
been laid In his grave seven years ago.
He is practically dead to himself. to his
friends and to the world. And vet he
lives to be a charge upon those who
have the duty of looking after him.
There Is something pathetically sad i'm
the story of the faithful wife who has
been the constant watcher over the
sleeper's bedside. Hers has been a
seven years vigil by an open tomb"

Referring to the recent tariff dis
cussion at Buffalo Gap, the News SAYS:
''The discussion last evening was to a
good audience. Many complimentary
words may be spoken for each debater.
They spared without gloves and elected
many well earned applauses. The final
vote by the audience upon the merits of
the argument was a tie. Some hard
nuts were landed by each side for the
other to crack. On the final speech.
however, Mr.. Reno left the floor with
the challange to any one to PROFOUND
any questions, while Mr.. Reynolds
wound up by refusing to answer his OPP
ponents queries. 1t was a good evening
well spent, and will serve to start many
minds to thinking. This is a question
that every one should study thoroughly.
1t is bound to be u campaign issue, and
no man is fit to vote until he can vote
intelligently. We hope the future will
bring us more of these friendly de-
bates"

Mr.. Springer. chairman OF the COM
mittee on territories, speaking in rela-
ton to the admission Of new states, SAYS:
The admission of a new state is a very
important matter and cannot be done
on a mere application or on any mere
arithmetical basis. Somehow an i'm
preston has got abroad that a territory
must have a certain population to
qualify it for admission. Some put 1t at
10000; some at $4,000; some at 100000
and have seen it placed as high as
100000. Then | have seen it laid down
that the population required to qualify
a territory for statehood was just the
population which in the apportionment
of representation gets one member in
the house Of representatives but all
these theories are entirely fanciful and
are arbitrary. There is no law, no rule
and no custom about it. The admission
of a new state is entirely a matter of
Legislative discretion. 1t Is within the
power Of congress to erect mo Mans
Land into q state and admit it to the
Union. There is no census qualification
prescribed. The state of Illinois was
admitted when she had less than 10000
population. Dakota has over GOO, 600
now; the congress-, in its discretion,
may exclude Dakota and admit No
Mans Land"

The United States exceeds the British
Islands in population by little more
than one-third and yet u periodical
Press enormously exceeds theirs by no
less than 1894 daily and periodical
publications appearing, or abont one to
every 1000 inhabitants. London, with
its nearly 100000 Inhabitants, is con
tent with seven morning and seven even
ing papers, the former having, beside. a
large provincial circulation. New York,
with only 100000 inhabitants, main
tains thirty-nine daily papers. Philadel-
phia, with u population of 100000, has
nineteen daily papers, two Of which
have a circulation of over 100000 a day.
Boston. with u populotion Of 10000 has
eleven daily papers, with an aggregate
circulation Of 100000 copies a day.
Chicago, with a population of 100000,
has seventeen daily papers. Any town
of 10000 inhabitants maintains its daily
paper, and "A village of even 200 or 800
souls finds it necessary to its dignity to
maintain a weekly sheet.-EX.

. Washington telegram to the Sioua

A Washington telegram to the Sioux
City Journal, dated January 9th, says
The senate judiciary committee further
considered, this morning, the nomina-
ton of Lamar TO be associate Justice Of
the supreme court, but reached no ac-
ton. The time was chiefly consumed
by Senator Evarts, in opposition to the
confirmation. He was rather sharply
questioned by the democratic. senator's,
and retorted in kind. All the members
of the committee were present except
Senators Wilson, of Iowa, and Vest, who
are paired. 1t is in contemplation,
since the resignation of Secretary La
mar, to proceed with the cases of Villas
and Dickinson without respect to that
of Lamar, and, though this course has
not been determined upon, all the mem
bers of the committee having expressed
themselves on the Lamar case in COM
mittee, no doubt it is entertained.
There will be C majority and minority

The st. Paul Press thus closes a very
sensible article upon the opening of the
Sioux reservation: "The present status
OF the Sioux reservation is not only an
industrial wrong but a palpable absur-
dity. To hold this area, larger than
many of our fio%urishing states, as a pri
vate preserve until the savages who
roam over it shall consent to the opera
ion ola policy which they do not under.
stand and whose benefits they are not
able to appreciate, would be the height
of stupidity. 1t is easy now TO prepare
a bill for opening of the Sioux reserva-
ton which shall do justice to all the In.
dian not excepted. Such a bill ought to
find its way through congress at the
earliest opportunity.

One of the queer things in business
is the propensity Of people to seek the
irregular medium of advertising. 1t Is
~unaccountable the prices some men pay
for sticking their advertisement in irreg-
ular places. Especially is this SO when
there is unwillngness to pay for adver-
Using in the regular channels. Adver-
tisements thrust into irregular and on
business-like places impress the general
mind that the concern is of a similar
character, observes the Cincinnati Gaz-
cite. But an advertisement in a gen
eral newspaper of tirst-Ciass standing
carries the impression that the adver-
tiser has a standing in his own commu-
nifty which he is not afraid to show to
his neighbors, and that he does not
shrink from competition with the best of
them. If any one is going to n place to
buy, whether he be a trader or buying
for his own use, and has to seek dealers
through advertisements, where will lie
look for them? He looks to the most
reputable paper in the place, and he
thinks that advertising in these gives as
suiance Of the good standing of the adj
y~ertiser and his business enterprise, and
of the .sutiicicncy of his stock.-Ex.

Washington special to the Pioneer
Press says: Judge G.. c. Moody. of
Deadwood. senator-elect for the state
of Dakota, has been in the city with his
wife for several days. He has framed
a bill for the division of Dakota and its
admission into the Union. The bill
divides the territory on an east and west
line at about the same points that the
HARRISON bill doea. but. overcomes some
Of the objections raised by the old
measure, which divided a few of the
Uneven counties and ran through the
heart OF a good sized city. In all prob
ability the bill will be reported as a sub
stitute for the Harrison bill.

The great Sioux reservation in Oak

The great Sioux reservation in Dako-
tn, which the Dawes bill proposes to
open to sttlement, has about 81 900, 900
acres. The northwest corner of the
reservation is at MILESTONE Butte, where
the south fork ofthe Cannon Ball river
crosses longitude 1913 degrees west
from Greenwich. The northern bound
airy follows closely the bend of this
river till it empties into the Missouri
at Clayton, below Bismarck. The Mis-
souri, makes the eastern boundary down
to the Nebraska line at Nlobrara, except
that between Chamberlin and Rous-
seau the Crow, Creeks and Winneba-
goes spread east Of the river. The state
line furnishes the southern boundary
west to longitude 1913 degrees. The west.
ern boundary runs along longitude l05
degrees till it strikes the Black Hills
county at the South Fork ofthe Cheven-
ne. 1t then follows the South Fork till
its junction with North Fork. with
which it forms the Big Cheyenne. Out
of this bend were formed the counties
Lawrence. Pennington and Custer, out
side Of the reservation. From the North
Fork the boundary line continues
straight along longitude lO2 deg, to the
south fork of the Cannon Ball river at
Milestone Butte. The Dawes bill is to
divide a portion Of the reservation into
separate reservations and to secure the
REIMBURSEMENT Of the Indian title to the
remainder. Aberdeen Dem.

tana and Dakota owe their lives to Old
Proteau's kindness. He acted as guide
for Generals Custer, Harvey, Sibley and
Sully, and carried over twenty arrow
points in his body. He made several
trips into the Black Hills with Indians
fifty years ago, and on n occasion
returned with over SIS, 600 worth Of gold
nuggets, which he traded for several
barrels Of pork and sugar to Chatran
Brothers. He was wealthy several
times, but his money went like the
WIND. 1t is supposed that Proteau was
endeavoring to make his way TO the
post, when he was caught in a blizzard
and persisted. The remains were taken
in charge by Indians and buried with
Indian ceremonies. Chief Hump made
a few remarks and the squaws gave a
chant.
