LONDON, May 2O-The house of COM
mons sat until 4 a. m. to-day in committee
on the budget bill. All the clauses We're
carried by free application of closure. The
peremptory shutting off of debate angered
the Liberals and Nationalist and occa-
stoned number of scenes. 1t is believed
that the present week will be critical one
in parliament. The government intends
to force business through as rapidly
| as possible, by the aid of liberal use of
the power of closure. The Nationalists
will make as strong an opposition to the
governments whisky tax measure as they
are allowed to under the rules The
ground of their objection is that Ireland

largest tax in the kingdom, while deriv-

JUDGE NOT.

Let us not too hastily condemn the
people of the East for their seeming in
difference on the silver question. 1t
takes long time to make any given fact
known to large number Of people who
do not see IAN immediate and direct in
terest of their own at stake therein.
The people of Nevada, for instance, have
pretty good idea about the silver ques-
ton, because it has been naturally in
tie direct line of our business to study
that question. Thus we have become
we'll acquainted with it, in most of its
relations; while the eastern farmers, who
raise wheat and corn, and suffer, indi-
rectly, with us, and from the same
cause, do not so readily recognize that
cause, as do we who suffer directly from
it. But they are giving the matter at.
tention now,-they are studying it,
and our congressional representatives are
giving them uncontradicted facts and
incontrovertible arguments which are
forming for them the basis Of an educa.
tion that will, sooner or later-the time
now seems close at hand-force their
agents in the national legislature to right
the financial wrong committed in 1873.
We must remember that we for time
complained of eastern obtuseness
on the Chinese question. Yet in
less than ten years the nineteen.twenti-
eths of the nation, which had previously
known nothing about the Chinese, learned
what 1.-THE one.twentieth who had been
in actual contact with the Chinese took
thirty years to learn, So it was not un.
til several years after the crime of 1873
that it was discovered by us, who were
the direct victims of that crime, that it
was crime. Yet we expect the eastern
people, who only feel its influence in an
indirect way, and who are hampered by
long established prejudices, to imme.
diately see the truth as soon as we, who
have been directly forced to its study.
Patience. They will see it all shortly.
Let us continue to exhort them, but not
to complain.

THE LOUISVILLE COURIER JOURNAL, an
avowed enemy of western interests, has
recently INDUCED in poor sneer Nevada
1t asks the question, "When a Montana
Senator meets nevada Senator, what
does each think of the other?' Perhaps
each congratulates the other that he was
not made a senator by legislators who
obtained their seats by methods peculiar
to the "Solid South" We know that
both the senators from Nevada were cleo
ted without either force or fraud. As
to Montana's senators we have no per.
sonal knowledge but presume they were
elected properly, the Senate of the
United States having SO decided. But if
the Republicans of Montana were truly
guilty of all that is charged against them
they would still be far less stepped in
crime than the Democrats of the South
now practically admit themselves to be.
Neither in Montana nor in Nevada are
the weak restrained from voting by fear
of the strong. In both states there ex.
lists in fact, as well as in name, republi-
can form Of governments true democ-
racy. Neither Nevada nor Montana re.
pudiates the Constitution of the United
States, nor de6es the just authority OF
the Federal Government.

Cal. There is no record of his birth
but when the Franciscan missionaries
came to California, more than a century
ago, ''Old Gabriel" was then grand

l740, and had reached the age OF $50
years at the time of his death. Gabriel
never used liquor or tobacco, and led a

A Haunted House.

In times more or less remote and
even in times more or less modern,
there have been places where children
would have been less easily frighten-
ed and where even the older portions
of the community would have rested
more easily, if the belief in ghosts
could have been taken away and the
ghosts themselves annihilated.
During recent years, however, it has
not been considered safe, by enlight-
ened people, to uphold the theory that
objects, preternaturally visible, have
O place in the fears, superstitions and
calculations of men, because Of the
significant smiles liable to be pro-
voked from the skeptical people of
this skepticai age. Sometimes, though,
these apparitions do appear in such
tangible form and under such impress
sive circumstances that they can not
be Ignored Or cast aside. Ghosts do
exist, no matter how we try to argue
them away and lift ourselves above
the Authorizations Of the past. An
instance of proof occurred very near
this village only few days ago.
A farmer, so we are told, living in
the town Of Scott, having remained
in town q few hours longer than busi-
ness necessities required, started for
home late on d story evening. When
he had gone as far as the vacant house
short distance west of the village,
he was suddenly startled by sound
that seemed like the moaning Of wild
beasts In the distance, so intensified
that it could be distinctly heard above
the roar of the blizzard. His blood
run cold. CHANGING in the direction
indicated by his qu;ckened hearing,
the now thoroughly frightened man
saw fiery mist which seemed to fill
the dilapidated building just men-
toned. Soon the fiery vestments
changed for those whose dazzling
whiteness outshone even the white
ness Ol TIC bHOV. AS Hc lOOhcut Tie

as though 1t would cleave the head OF
an invisible foe, turned back into the

this? Is it n warming, or has this

ling been the scene Of some foul wrong
which ought to be discovered and
avenged? Our readers must deter
mine.
The farmer who saw and has rela.
ted this incident admits that he was
never so thoroughly alarmed before
and adds that hereafter lie will be al
home before dark SO long as this house
stands beside the road which lie must
travel.

A Mattar of Importance.

EDITOR TRIBUNE:-I desire to call
the attention Of our business men to
u matter which seems to me OF inn
pOrtance to our village. There are
five lots in block two which were
purchased about twenty years ago by
Il nonresident speculator. When the
town WAS young the owner would
contract leases for Il term of years.
When, however, The lots had been all
leased and built upon, the owner at
expiration OF the existing leases re-
fused to release except from year to
year, making every lessor feel uneasy
about his tenure.
By the late fire three Of these lots
have been cleared of buildings, and
refuse to release under the present
exaoting demands of the owner, their
lots VIII be put upon the market for
what they are worth, and q class of
buildings erected that would be
credit to the town. No one will have
the imprudence to erect a building of
value upon a lot leased for term Of
one year only.
On the other hand if our business
men release these lots a class of
cheap, unsubstantia! wooden build
ings will again be erected as the re-
suit and another holocaust in due
time will be the outcome. The aver
age business man cannot afford to
pay over 3 per cent. for substantial
insurance. This block was worth at
least per cent. to insure at the time
Of the fire, and respoL sible insurance
companies were ordering risks in this
block to be discontinued at eXpira-
ton. These lots will not remain I'M
occupied long, in my opinion, before
they will be offered for sale at rea-
sonable figure. GEO. E. DARLING.

Stevens County Alliance.-An Interesting
Meeting.

There was a very interesting meet
! ing of the Stevens County Alliance
at the court house last Saturday after
noon. We dropped in shortly after
the meeting was called to order 10y
President r. J. Hall, and found as
sembled there fully one hundred OF
the representative farmers of the
county, and we can truly say, without
any disposition to flatter, that II more
intelligent, bright-looking set of men
we have rarely seen together.
After disposing of the unfinished
business, aud authorizing the secre-
tary to purchase u record book, and
appointing the president, secretary
and treasurer committee TO revise
the constitution of the Alliance of
this county, Mr.. s. B. Smith read n
well-prepared and interesting paper
on "Fertllizers and the best way to
fertilize our lands" he taking the
ground that barn-yard manure, when
properly taken care of, Is the best fer
tilizer to be obtained. At the close Of
the reading Of this paper there was q
good share of applause.
Hon. II. w. Stone, Sr., being called
tor, said that he had not prepared a
paper, and in place of it made IL most
excellent speech, giving his experience
-, IF foe nj N u
ing with Mr.. Smith rs TO the best fer
tilizer, but did not agree with him in
regard to top dressing. Mr.. Stone
was opposed to burning straw; said
that not load ought to be burned in
Stevens county; after using il liber-
ally as bedding for stock and spread
ing 1t literally in the barn-yard, he
had obtained good results by spread
ing it over the pasture. Told how he
had increased the yield of wheat on
sandy soil from three bushels to the
acre to twenty-seven bushels on the
same ground, 10y the use of barn-yard
manure. He said he was strongly In
favor Of sowing clover and blowing IN
o crop of it occasionally rs green dres-
sing. In Goodhue county, he said,
the farmers always SOW clover with
their wheat. In fact Mr.. Stone gave
much valuable information, and when
he closed WAS loudly applauded.
Then came IL general discussion and
the relating Of experiences by u large
number present. We would be glad
to give a synopsis of all that was said,
but space forbids. 1t was, in fact, an
"experience meeting,n which all, we
think, greatly enjoyed. At any rate,
we did, it being the first Alliance
meeting we ever attended in Minne-
sofa.
After the close Of the above discus
sion, Mr.. Erick Olson, of Labor Echo
fame, who was present, was called on
by the president for II speech. Mr..
Olson rallied himself and charged on
and warehouse commissioners, the
elevator men, and corporations gem
orally, in manner quite as chiValric
and reckless as that exhibited by the
renowned Don Quixote, when he
charged on the windmill, and just
about as effectively. Wedid not wait
to hear MIR. Eri-|; OEaan, o. Labor
Echo fame. through, neither did a
good many Of the farmers. 1t seemed
to be the opinion OF Il majority Of those
present that Mr.. Erick Olson, of Labor
Echo fame, as an Alliance worker, is
not bowling success.
