News comes from Boston that, under
the auspices OF the Erial Exhibition
Association, u steel air-ship is about to
be constructed upon the vacuum prin-
ciple. The ship is to be constructed
entirely of thin plates Of the greatest
possible tensile strength, and thor
oughly braced inside by new devel-
opment In science mechanics" to resist
the pressure OF the atmosphere when a
partial vacuum is obtained. The pro-
moters OF tho enterprise expect their
machine TO lift two hundred passen-
gers and fifty tons Of mail or other
matter, to say nothing OF all the ma
chinery and apparatus. with electrical
power sufficient to give speed to tho
ship OF at least seventy miles an hour.
During the earlier trips no interme-
date or Storage passengers will be
taken. The cost is estimated at two
hundred and fifty thousand dollars,
and National subscription Is TO be
opened for the purpose OF secur-
ing the necessary funds DIR. Do
Bossuet, the inventor. is said
TO claim that his plans havo
had tho approval OF ''the most emf
nent scientific and engineering experts
In the country" There is no doubt
that aerial navigation will sooner or
later become an accomplished fact, but
1t Is very much open to question
whether either the automobile balloon
or the vacuum she'll will be tho sue
cessful air-ship OF the future, but
rather, 30 far us we can judge at pres

motor driven by electricity, derived
from the surface or the earth. 1t
seems as II inventors never would DO
convinced Of the futility OF the dirigible
balloon, OF which the unfortunate
termination OF the Campbell venture
has Just afforded another example.

which the machine can be handled In

enacted that fixes the date when primary

manner of voting. the qualification of vot-
ers and fixing the hours during which the
polls shall be open. The place should be
the usual place of holding elections. The
time should be fixed number of days be-
fore the election. The democratic and re-
publican committeeman, or the committee
OF any party intending to place ticket
in the field, should act as judges for
their respective parties and receive and de-
pOsit the ballots as they are offered, in
separate boxes provided for their respect

their own party vote. The several parties
should meet at the same time and place
and in the same room, as many ballot
boxes being provided as there are parties
claiming recognition. The day, like the
day for all general elections, shall be made
q legal holiday. Delegates to the state,
congressional, judicial, legislative and
county conventions could be elected at the
same time. The usual oath required of q
voter challenged at the polls should be re-
quired, and in addition that the person

Let Us Help One Another.

'There are no poor people in Dakota" is
a favorlte remark of our political leaders,
and it is pleasant to reflect that. the boast
is so far founded in truth,that the majority
of our people are we'll to do. and able to
care for the few who by reason of sickness
or misfortune, are entitled to the help and
sympathy of their more fortunate neigh
bors.
In our own county there are a number
of this class, especially among the new
settlers, who are seeking to establish homes
upon the prairie without the means ade-
qnate to maintain their families IN comfort.
These may be quietly helped to many
comforts, which they can accept without
forfeiture OF either independence or self
respect Warm clothing is necessity for
the coming winter. But this want can be
supplied if the charitable disposed ladies
of Bismarck will contribute the clothing
which their families have outgrown, or
discarded for the purpose, and thus with
little expense to themselves, they can
make others happy and comfortable.
ALI having articles to donate for this
purpose. are requested to leave them at
Dunn's drug store for Mrs. DR.. Slaughter,
who will attend to this proposed distri-
button.

The saloonkeeper's of Bismarck, who
are now looking about for new worlds to
conquer, are invited to locate in northern
Burleigh. In township 14S, north of here,
there are an infinite number of fine claims

crop should chance to fail, the crop of
Ignite Is exhaustless and unfailing.
The crying need Of the farmers Of this
county Is an open market, where farm
products can be sold direct to the con-
sumer. During the past summer the farm
ers received but 10, IL and 15 cents per
pound and dozen for butter and eggs, in
trade, which were resOld for cash over the
same counters for 15, 20 and Is cents. AS
remedy for this injustice the question Of
cooperative stores in the country is being
discussed all over the county. But city
market In which each farmer can rent
space is what Is needed, and will both
greatly benefit the farmer and repay the
owners. Cannot the city utilize some of
the sOOn.tO- -be-vacant saloon buildings for
this purpose?

New States and the Tarifr.


Minneapolis Times: The result Of
the elections in the new states is,
on the whole, very satisfactory to
the republicans. In the latest returns,
which gave the Montana legislature to the
democrats, are correct, the republicans can
count with certainty on gain of six sena.
tors and five members of the lower house.
They have already elected 1855 members of
the latter body, and the additions from the
new states give them III members. while
the democrats will have 159. The influx
Of new members will. however, increase :he
number necessary for 9 majority to 1856
margin of five. In the senate the republi-
can gain is more decisive. 1t amounts to
dumping eight new and untried statesmen
into that dignifed body, six of whom will
be republicans. The latter already have
thirty-nine members of the senate, and the
new influx will give them forty five. while
the democrats will get forty nine, provided
Montana proves loyal to Maginnis.
What the new members think about
certain features of national legislation is
largely matter of conjecture. 1t is GER
tain, however, that the farmers of the
Dak0tas and Washington have not sent
tarifites Of the Reed and Mckinley school
to congress. There may not be any Knute
Nelson's among the new members, but 1t
may be predicted that the new states will
make themselves felt in favor of tariff re-
form when the question comes up. At any

The steamer missouri sunk

Bad luck has once more overtaken the
Power line of steamers, this time sinking
the steamer Little Missouri, which was en-
route to Fort Bennett with cargo of coal
The boat struck rocks below Yates
and went down in five feet of water. The
shallow water proves good fortune for it
leaves the machinery, cargo and all the
frame work OF the boat above danger and
all except the hull will be saved.
The point where the boat went down is
known as Rock Reef, and has always been
considered dangerous. For several years
the boats have taken the other side Of the
river, but the channel has changed to the
rocks and it was necessary to make the
attempt to pass between them.
Captain Voolfolk, one of the most experi-
enced rivermen on the Missouri, was in
command, and Charles Blunt, another of
the oid-time reliable navigators was in the
pilot house. 1t was an almost unavoidable
accident and all concerned are to be CON
graduated that the loss is so small.

Want bismarck Real Estate.


Inquiries regarding the prices Of Bis

all parts of the country. Prohibition has
not lessened the interest in the capital city
OF North DAKOTA. and sensible men who
know that these vast prairies must be set

for a wealthy agricultural district. are still
keeping their business eye on the city with
a view to purchasing property. Among
the many interesting communications is
