There has been good deal of agitation in
the postofiice department with regard to re.
ducinS the rate ofletter postage to one cent an

decided not to make any change at present,

guile. though postage is as cheap at the present
pate ~ that of'any country on earth, but the
condition of the service and of the public

A May Day Snow Storm.

Early on Tuesday before most people
were out of bed the clouds began drop
ping heavy snow fakes and as the day
advanced the flakes became thicker and
finer until at five o'clock this evening
the air was filed with the beau
tiful, but unusual moisture. The
sight presented was cheerful one to
everybody. The snow had fallen four
inches on the level, and every drop OF
the water it was making will soak into
the ground. The trees in full leaf had
their branches bending heavily with the
unusual load. The streets contained
ample snow for sleighlng. Enough snow
has fallen to insure the sproutlng OF
wheat and good start for growing grain
in this vicinity.
In 1888 there was similar storm. 1t
was IN May, but less than the snow OF
today. From May until July Is of that
year there was no other moisture on the
grain, yet good crop was harvested that
wear.

renouncing tue world. Her position at
the present time is simply that Of one
who has retired to mediate upon a great
and long cherished project, namely that
of the institution of a new slsterhood
whose field of work shall be among the
Indian and Negro races.
Miss Drexel's object" said friend OF
the Drexel family yesterday, sin taking
the step which has attracted such wide
spread attention is simply to secure re-
tirement from the world for several
months, in order to know whether what
she has had in her mind for some years
past is Gods will in her regard, and if So
to become thoroughly acquainted with
the interior life of a religious community.
AS almost every one knows Miss Kate
Drexel has been for number of years
interested in the Indian and colored mis-.
sion. She has given most freely and
most generously Of her large income fol
the founding OF schools for the education
of Indian and colored children. Not
satisfied with giving her money, she
wishes now to give herself to this work
Miss Drexel feels that il community
of Sisters could be established who
would devote themselves exclusively tc
the education of Indian and colored girls
a grand work would be accomplished for
the civilization and moral and religious
improvement of these people. She is al
so satisfied that it can only be done by
Sisters who would VOW themselves ex.
clusively to this work. In retirement
therefore, and alone with God she wishes
to find out whether He will make known
to her that such is His will.
miss Drexel has already devoted
much of her personal attention to this
work to which she now seeks to devote
her entire time and fortune. With hel
two sisters she has already made two
visits to the Indian tribes Of the west
and northwest. She knows their condl
tion thoroughly and, therefore, realizes
the necessity of the work she now wishes
to undertake."
When she actively enters onthe new
undertaking she will probably grouE
arounda number Of young ladies
who are similarly impressed with the
possibilities of the field. Their influence
will be thrown out all through the south
ern states and western states and terri
tories. Schoolhouses and missions vii
be built, and the cause of the Catholic
church will be given a great impetu!
among the races toward which Miss
Drexel's endeavors will be directed.

The election yesterday proves that the
people still rule and that the efforts of
newspapers and boilers to override the
DEGREES of their caucuses and conyen-
tions shall no longer prevail. It was a
contest between regular nominees and
bolters and the emphatic manner in
which the people pronounced in favor OF
the regular nominees IS an unmistake-
able declaration that the day Of the
bolter in Stutsman county politics has
passed.
The nos. .inees of the Peoples conyen-
tion were two republicans and demo-
crat and The Alert IS pleased to see that
republicans generally followed it's advice
and voted for two republicans thereby
increasing their election by a fattering
vote. Stutsman county by this election
again takes its place among the counties
of North Dakota as republican strong
hold. The victory is a distinctively
republican one and presages future re-
publican rule in this county.
The democrats had two men in the
feld-Mr. Blewett the regular nominee
and Mr.. McGinnis, the self imposed can
didate who derived his support from the
disaffected and disappointed element Of
both parties The compromising politi-
cal attitude of Mr.. McGinnis was so
evident that his supposed personal popu-
larity, which has hitherto made him a
strong candidate, was of little avail
against the regular nominee, notwith-
standing the violent newspaper opposi-
ton to the latter. Mr.. Blewett's vote is
very gratifying to his friends, his country
vote looming up in surprising manner
A number of country precincts have
not been reported. The vote as far as
received is as follows:

so far as culture is concerned and it is to

SO far as culture is concerned and it is to
be hoped that farmers in different parts
of the territory will undertake to raise
small quantities (say one-fourth to one
half acre. Of these varieties OF beets that
give the greatest yields of sugar. OF
course such work can not be undertaken
with the expectation OF making direct
ly profitable Investment IN sugar, since
that can only be accomplished after
large and expensive sugar factories have
been established. But if it can be demon
strated that sugar beets may be grown
successfully in different sections Of this
territory the factories will be quick and
sure to follow.
! 1t has been and is the aim of this
station to aid the farmer in adding to tho
number Of crops that may be grown ataE
| profit; and in furtherance OF this line OK
policy the station offers to analyze free
| OF charge any samples OF sugar beets
that may be grown in the territory. 1t
is desirable that the data Of the treat
ment of crops and soil shall accompany
each sample, for thus may it be determln-
ed just what treatment yields the best
returns. Moreover it must be remember
ed that the beets so grown are valuable
for feeding purposes. This fact makes it
easier for the station to ask for the CO.
operation of farmers in this line of inves-
tigation, since under no possible circum-
stances would they incur any risk of loss
greater than in raising any other root
crops. All correspondence in reference
to methods of cultivation should be adj
dressed to Professor Foster, while corre-
spondence in reference to analysis should
be addressed to the chemist of the
station. ~
