COMING ELECTIONS,

Four weeks from to-day the voting for
the year will be concluded. New Jer-
sey, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Ohio.
Iowa and Virginia will elect governors
and other state officers, with legisla-
lures; while New York, Pennsylvania,
Maryland and Nebraska have an Off
year election, with minor state officers.
Considerable interest attaches to the
New York vote, as that state elected
HARRISON, and some inference may be
drawn from its voting next month as to
how it likes its work so far. The other
three states that do not elect governors
will be without interest to the poll
tician. Ohio and Virginia are the most
strongly contested, and the Democrats
are confident of the last and hopeful of
the first. New Jersey is not seriously
questioned, but Iowa and Massachusetts
are good fighting ground for the DEM
ocrats this year. If they lose both of
them it will not be due TO candidates or
platform, as they have the best of both
tnat the political market affords.

INoPERATlyE PROHIBITION.

The adoption of prohibition in the
constitutions of the Dakotas does not
inaugurate prohibition. 1t is entirely
ineffective until the legislatures of the
states provide the necessary statutes.
If those bodies are unfriendly to the
cause, they will not be likely to formu-
late statutes that will make the provis-
ION operative. At the earliest, the new
laws will not go in force in the North
until next July. and probably not much
earlier in the South, as ninety days are
requisite after the legislature adjourns,
except in case of emergency, when a
two-thirds vote is had. No doubt in the
South the candidates for the legislature
were selected with view to this legis-
latiOn, as it was expected that the
amendment would be adopted. This
is possibly not the case in North Da-
kota, as it was the general expectation
that prohibition would be voted down.
The representatives from all the cities,
if they reflect local sentiment, will
work for very moderate sort of a
statute.

"Around the world" at Harris.

If the audience at play can be taken
as any criterion, Around the World in
Eighty Days." may at once be put down
as the hit of the season, as the audience
which greeted it crowded Harris thea.
ter in Minneapolis from pit to dome last
night, and standing room" was in
demand. ''Around the World i'm
Eighty Days" possesses the elements
necessary for as grand spectacular pro-
duction. but the audience was not dis
appointed last night. The scenery.
good deal of which the company brought
with it, is quite good and effective. and
the three principal characters received
a good deal of applause. In the second
act large corps or corypheeS. dressed
as amaZons, went through an excellent
drill, which was warmly re-
ceived, as it deserved. W. J.
Fleming, the creator in this country OF
the character of Phineas FOgg gave an
excellent portrayal of the eccentric
EngliShman, Arnold WOlfred. as PaSSe
Paitout was good. j. T. Fleming mad
a typical American and won much APP
plause, and Miss Edith Potter looked
charming and acted we'll as Aouda. In
fact the cast throughout was excellent.
The same bill will be repeated through
out the week with Thursday and Satur-
day matineeS.

RoULANGisM sQUEECHED.

If BoULANGER were not BoULANGEg
his political obituary might be written.
But when a man has already passed
through more political eXlstences than
are additionally allotted to cat, it is
unsafe to predict his everlasting demise.
To all human appearances Boulangism
is effectually crushed out in France;
yet there is no telling what an
other election may bring forth among
a people noted for their fickleness
and with a mushroom popular hero of
such elastic quality as BoULANGER.
Still it looks now as if the conservative
Republicans had succeeded in Screwing
down the coffin lid on BoULANGER'S
remains. They have at least demon
strated their capability to manipulate
the election machinery TO his disad-
vantage, and so long as they continue
to possess this power the republic is
safe. 1t doesn't make much difference
how many votes BOULANGER gets at
each succeeding election so long as
they are not counted.

SECTION3LISM.

Taking its cue fro m the New York
World, our Third street neighbor utters
a protest against tie issue of sectional
ism which has been raised between Chi
cago and New York in their fight for
the worlds fair. We would like to
know how the issue can be avoided
when the fight for location is strictly a
sectional one. After the site for the
fair has been selected then the institu-
ton will assume national character
and the East and the West will unite in
making it grand success. But in the
fight for location the East and the West
are fairly pitted against each other, with
every assurance of victory for the latter
unless betrayed by its own representa-
tives. There is nothing petty or illiberal
in this sectional fight. 1t is fair, open
competition between two sections claim
ing supremacy in national affairs. The
East has always asserted the right to
dictate our national policy. and usually
exercised that right as long as it held
the power. The West now denies to
the East either the right or the power
to longer dominate the nation, and it is
the most natural thing in the world
for this issue to be made an incident in
the fight between New York and Chi
cago. Chicago will not get any East
ern votes for the same reason that New
York is not entitled to any Western
votes-that it would be reasonable in
a representative to vote against the in
terest of his section. If New York wins
in a fair fight the Western people will
give an enthusiastic support to the
great exposition, and will contribute as
much as their friends in the East to
make it a grand achievement for the
nation. If Chicago wins, as ii will win
unless there is treachery among West
ern congressman, then we expect the
people of the East TO do likewise. After
| the location is made it will be an Ameri-
can affair. Until the location is made
it is a sectional issue, aud the Western
people are going to stand up for their
! caofi0n

CHICAGO. Oct. 7.-DiSpatches from
several points report a terrific storm on
Lake Huron yesterday 1t is feared
that several vessels have gone down.
At Sand Beach, Mich, several vessels
put in Saturday night. Yesterday a
huge sea struck the propeller diego,
smashed in the port rail, and instantly.
killed Mate Thomas Nj. Fisher. Wheels
man Thomas Rowland, of the propeller
Rosedale. was killed during the storm.
While the vessel was in Saginaw bay.
laboring in heavy sea. the wheel got
away from the mate and wheelsman,
and the latter was instantly killed.
Every spike in the wheel was broken
when in its rapid revolutions it struck
his head. The schooner Magruder,
laden with lumber. was driven ashore in
Sand Beach harDOr. A dispatch from
Detroit reports the steamer Viking
aground on st. Clair flats, and the
steam barge Glasgow on Pelee island.
The barge Wend the Wave, one of the
Glasgow'S cons0rts, was run down and
|, sunk by the schooner j. ID. Sawyer.
The cook, woman, was drowned. A
dispatch from Port Huron says many
vessels put in badly damaged. and sew
eral are reported ashore at Inherent
points. The big steamer Chemung ar
rived in Port Huron last evening. Her
captain reports that the Chemune's air
pump burst in the morning. The
steamer drifted in the trough of the sea
and shifted her cargo. She arrived at
Port Huron almost on her beam ends.
Two vessels report black three-masted
steam barge with one large smoke Stack
ashore at White Rock. Both think it is
the Rhoda Emily or the Escanaba of
the Owen line. No fatalities have so Jar
been reported except those mentioned

a la Willard.
The Illinois Central Gives
Sioux Citizens a Special
Commodity Tariff.

Henry d. Minot, president of the
Eastern Railway of Minnesota, and one
of the directors of the Manitoba, was
asked yesterday what was the zeal
meaning Of the Great Northern Railway
company. He replied in effect as fol-
lows: ''It is not such a portent0uS birth
as has been imagined by many. 1t
simply amounts to thiS--that it was
found advisable to increase the capital
stock of the Manitob road. 1t would
be inconyenient to make this increase
of Manitoba stock as such. 1t was also
deemed advisable, as matter of econ
omy, to place all the different COM
panieS which are controlled by the Man.
itoba under one management. The
present name of the road is mis-
homer and among many is misunder-
stood, being taken as the name of a
Canadian road by more well-pOSted cap
italists than you would imagine. For
these rensons it was decided to ANAL
gamate all the roads into new COM
pany. with the name of the Great
Northern railway. The Manitoba, East
ern Minnesota, Montana Central and
Northern line of steamships will all
come into the new company. l do not
see that it will make any difference to
the public at large. being simply a
measure of convenience"
In response to question whether the
800" Burlington d Northern, Duluth,
South Shore & Atlantic. or any other
road weuld be included in the amalga-
nation, Mr.. Minot laughed and said:
mo. decidedly not. Some people i'm
agine that we are going to absorb every
thing within thousand miles. This is
utter absurdity, as the new company
only includes the Manitoba system and
its branches. foresaw that the re-en-
trance of the Canadian members to the
Manitoba directorate would be miScon-
strued. and that people would talk
about coalition with the Canadian Pa
eific There is nothing in this at all;
the election of Sir George Stephen and
Sir Donald A. Smith as directors of the
road was nothing but most natural
thing. They have been for long time
heavily interested in the road, and their
presence on the board gave an addi-
tional strength. That is really all there
was in it, and this talk about utilization
with the Canadian Pacific is the sheer
est nonsense. So is the talk about the
Manitoba road obtaining control of all
sorts of other roads,"
