In debate on the floor of the House Repre-

he handles the toy pistol of wit very neatly In
speaking of the probable action of the confer

most of the amendments which it made with
such a flourish, cutting down the duties on a

probably yield something, too. IL will yield

sible, a few sections.

A PrOspectiYe IYnching Bee.

GRAND FORKS, N. D., Aug. 26.-The
village of Fisher, twelve miles east of
Grand Forks, was startled this morning
by brutal murder upon the arrival of
the west bound Great Northern passen-
ger train there. DR.. Bahrsen of Crooks
ton, passenger thereon, alighted upon
the platform, when fellow named
Horace Russell stepped up to him and
fired two shots in rapid succession. The
second shot penetrated the doctors head,
entering behind and passing out over
the left eye. The doctor staggered and
fell. After firing Russell pulled his coat
and made for the woods, which are dense
in that vicinity, still holding the smok-
ing revolver in his hand, and closely
pursued by Marshall Riley and the
crowd, the latter intent on lynching.
Russell and his wife had quarrel sever
al weeks ago, and the woman left him
and returned to her home at Lisbon.
Russell attributes his wife's separation
to the influence of DR.. Bahrsen, though
it is generally believed the doctor is per-
fectly innocent. It is believed Russell
cannot possibly escape, as the whole
country is alarmed and citizens from
Crookston as we'll as Fisher have joined
in the pursuit. He is likely to be lynch
ed when caught.

Chicago Switchmen Still Out.

CHICAGO, Aug. 26.-The rumor that
the striking stock yards switchmen had
repented their haste and asked to be
taken back by the Switching association
at the old rate of wages is groundless.
The switchmen are still out tonight and
the packing town is idle once more. The
roads have dissolved their switching as
sociation, declared the strikers dis
charged and say that each road will here
after do its own switching. The great
problem now is, will employees of the va
rious roads consent to do work formerly
done by strikers, or will they declare
that they are taking the places of strikers
in doing this switching and refuse to
enter the yards? If the latter position is
assumed by employees of the various
lines, every road entering Chicago may
be tied up before 48 hours, as there is no
doubt that tomorrow will see every road
attempting to do it's own switching. The
company's ground for hope that a gen.
eral strike may not take place is the fact
that the switchmen last night struck in
altogether an irregular and, according to
their bylaws, illegal manner. No seri-
GUS attempt was made by the roads to
clear the yards to-day, but tomorrow
will witness herculean effort to resume
Onerations

vator people and the general grain ship
ping interests of our state. we deem it eX-
pedient and proper to adopt such line of
business policy as will enable the present
crop of grain to be placed on the market to
the best possible advantage and to prevent
general disaster which would result from
a grain blockade, we recommend that the
elevator companies take OUT a state license
as provided in chapter 1SS, and issue re-
ceipts for the storage and handling of
grain under the same rules and regula-
tions heretofore in force, with the addi-
tional provision that one fourth cent per
bushel for each fifteen days shall be paid
in case said receipt be presented by other
parties than the original owners OF grain.
From such investigation as we have been
able to make we believe the rates named
in section %, chapter 1877, are so much less
than the charges at Minneapolis and Du-
luth that to attempt to do a storage busi
ness would result in filling up all our
warehouses by foreign holders to the ex-
clusion of our shippers; and that section 10.
chapter 1877, requiring the naming of the
price of difference for future market on
the lower grades is practically prohibitory,
and to endeavOr to enforce these prOvi
sions would result in a general obstruction
to grain shipping and serious loss.
Our powers of general supervisors re-
naming in force, we believe we can so di-
rect and control the; distribution of cars
and correct and adjust any errors and If
Irregularities as to protect the best interests
of all, and should this, our recommended
tions, be adopted by the elevator people
we feel confident our people will heartily
endorse and uphold our efforts to protect
their interests until the next legislature
may relieve us from the conflicting and un-
reasonable provisions of the existing ele-
vator laws Of our state. By the board,

The X. of L. Will Keep Up the Fight.

New YORK, Aug. 27.-Late tonight
Powderly put forth statement. 1t re-
views the ground traversed by him in
his previous manifesto. He intimates
that the dividends from the New York
Central interests are not equally divided,
and says: "The New York Central owns
the Wagner palace car concern, but the
dividends of that institution are not
shared in by the stockholders of the
New York Central-they go to the man.
ayers of the Wagner company. The
Blue Line of freight cars is owned by
the New York Central, and it is ques-
ton whether the stockholders know
what the earnings are. The bridge at
Albany is owned by the New York Cen
tral, but am told it is held as a sepa-
rate piece of property" Appropos of
this, Powderly demands government con-
troll of railroads; he rehearses the Sixth
National bank scandal in the same con-
nection, and he says he thinks Barry of
unsound mind and his utterances un-
worthy of attention. The, fight will be
kept up, says Powderly, until Chauncey
Depew comes here to rebuke or to range
himself beside Vice President Webo.

house was jammed full of republicans
when the big Mckinley convention
opened at Massillon at o'clock this af-
ternoon. A telegram from Sec

introduced Judge Munson of Medina,
who made the speech nominating Nc
Kinley. He reserved McKinley's name
to the last, and as it. was pronounced
the cheers and shouts that arose fairly
shook the house. When the vote was
called for by Smyser, the walls qrivered
with the mighty "aye" which went up
and the crowd cheered. Major McKin-
ley then followed with his speech of ac-
ceptance, which was mastery effort.
A number of other speeches were made,
and the convention ended amid great en-
thusiasm.

1t is reported that the Mohammedan
Mahdists are about to compel liquor
dealers to take their departure from
Africa. If they succeed it will be a
fine lesson to civilized nations gener-
ally. But it is to be feared they will
not succeed Christian Standard.
Prof. David Swing is reported to
have said recently, while discussing
the causes of poverty: "People talk
about the single tax system remedy
ing the evil Of poverty. Drinking is
the most prevalent vice of our age,
and increased pay with less hours of
work will not work out the reform.
Whisky would rejoice in double pay
and eight hours of work. It would
give it better opportunity" This is
absolutely true. At least three-fourths
of the poverty among the laboring
classes can be traced directly to the sa-
loon.
1t is said that 'sSan Francisco spends
$4,000 a day in her dram shops, yet
her laboring population complain of
hard times" IL it possible that our
laboring population is so blind as to
be unable to discover that the Ameri-
can saloon is of all things the greatest
breeder of poverty It is not only
vice, crime, insanity and every other
evil, but the abject poverty of our cities
is bred in the saloon. -Christian Evan
gelist.

The following from. the Chicago
Champion, the liquor dealers organ,
indicates that neither men nor money
will ne spared to defeat the will of the
people, and fasten this Ubiquitous traf-
fic and tyrart upon them: mo mat
ter how many Inen it takes, no matter
how much it costs; if it costs the liquor
trade one hundred thousand, nay, two
hundred thousand dollars to fight this
battle successfully, the victory will be
worth to Nebraska, it will be worth to
the liquor trade of the whole United
States, ten times more than it will
cost

Randall's Platform.

A personal friend of the late S. J.
Randall publishes some of the cardin-
al points of the great Democrats po-
litical creed which commend them
selves to men of all parties:
"In the great and wealthy counties
of Pennsylvania, farmers and mechan-
les alike-Democratic and Republic
an-beieve with the great statesman
leader of the Democratic party in that
state-Hon. Samuel j. Randall:
LIST. That no man can buy another
mans labor until he can sell his own.
I'd. If be buys the labor of the Eng
lish or German workman he cannot be
certain they will buy his in return.
Sd. That the nearer the farmer and
the skilled workman are to each other
the more of each others labor will
they get, and the easier and cheaper
they exchange it.
4th. That there is q law of compens-
alton in all things; the more wages the
mechanic engaged in skilled diversi-
fed labor receives the more he buys
of the farmer, and the more he pays
and is able to pay for it.
And that. is why the artisan and
farmer, working together, get profit
from their labor, and find it easy to
bear the burden of every public and
private debt, principal and interest,
which, if ever paid, must be paid out
of the profits created by the labor Of
the farmer and the mechanic"
