repudiate some of McKenZie's political

Casselton Republican: 1t is quite the
fashion among some Of the "rigidly

to abuse and traduce Alex. Mckenzie.

the appointment cannot hold. The name

Farmer Wallace for War.

Farmer Wallace in Casselton Republi-
can: The trouble with this country is that
too long a time has elapsed since we had
wal. We have been producing a quarter
Of a century. What we want is a wal to
consume our products-to destroy in order
that we may build up. Wal in Europe
would help us-war between this country
and some other would be better. War is a
great regulator. 1t is needed every once
in ten or fifteen years. Give us a war and
high prices for farm products-an imitation
of currency, times would be good. People
would get out of debt. Ny voice is for
war.

Let the New Broom Sweep Clean.

EDITOR, TRIBUNE: "New brooms
sweep clean" is an adage believed in by
taxpayers, and although a survey of the
makeup of our new city council may
arouse the suspicion that it is the same
old broom, there is hope for the tax
payer in the fact that it has got a brand
new handle. Therefore, the attention of
the new mayor is called to the fact that
there are a few quiet citizens in the sub
urbs who annually plant gardens and
find pleasure in the growth OF shrubs
and trees, but whose enjoyment of the
ann is precluded by the fact that the
town herdsis under, no specific ,regula-
tions, but has heretofore been allowed
by the small boys who guarded the same
to prey unmolested on the cabbages and
corn of the industrious but misguided
citizens aforesaid.
To regulate the town herd and require
it to be driven out of town at a reason
ably early hour, and to require it to be pas
tured outside of the city limits, and not
to be left in the care of small boys, who
naturally gravitate back to the base ball
grounds, leaving their savage herds to
devastate the suburban gardens, will be
a long, wide sweep in the right direction,
>s2a will bring peace and happiness to
many long suffering ruralists.
Again, a number Of our citizens who
own houses in town, remove temporarily
to their farms in the summer, closing
their town houses for the summer
They invariably return to find their win
dows smashed, doors broken open and

the shrubs and vines from the lawns. A
house cannot be left for even a few weeks
without being invaded and partially de-
stroyed, and the town is full of window
less and dismantled houses, that bear
CHASTITY witness to the destructiveness of
the Bismarck boys, and the inadequacy
of the city government to protect the
property Of the people who pay taxes for
its support. Let us pray that the pres
emit spring may see a reform in these re-
spects. A TAXPAYER.

Insane on Religion.

Mrs. Louisa Anderson, a former resident
of Burleigh county, who has been in this
country less than a year and who has but
q scant knowledge of the English Ian
guage, arrived fir ,m the west on Satur-
days train. She was chanting monoto-
nously and reading from a testament. In
broken English she talked about somebody
robbing and killing her. One of the brake
men stated that it took two strong men to
hold the woman during most OF the trip to
Bismarck, as she was continually jumping
from her seat and ~endeavoring to leap out
Of the window. A number of her country
men we're aboard who attempted to pae1fy
her, but she would listen to nothing and
seemed intent on ending her existence.
The unfortunate woman was taken to the
ladies' waiting room, and afterwards taken
by Policeman Marsh to the Pacific hotel.
1t being considered unsafe to leave her in
the hotel she was taken to the county jail,
where she remained over night. Justice
the in a rational condition and
ordered her release. From there she went
to the Pacific hotel aud secured accommo-
datiOns,
Mrs. Anderson, who is a we'll dressed,
ladylike appearing person of about IS or
40 years Of age, left Burleigh county last
fall and went to Oregon. 1t seems she did
not like the country and while returning
home her mind became temporarily de-
ranged. Mr.. Semlinge,. the clerk at the
Pacific hotel, recognized her as the woman
who formerly lived near Painted Woods
and who went to Oregon last fall. Her
brother. John Arnstrom lives, at Painted
Woods, to which point his unfortunate sis
ter was conveyed yesterday. When seen
in the afternoon Mrs. Anderson failed to
show any indications of insanity. She
talked nationally for a time with friends
and knew them all, but like all cases
mania comes on when least expected. 1t
is a sad case.

Politics of To-day.

MR. EDITOR Allow me space ill your paper to give some of my thoughts in regard to politics, l was Democrat and voted Democratic until lSS0 When began to notice the platform of the Democratic party of that day day and found it withou, promise of a better future, but only boasting of its long standing and what it had done, and not willing to risk the past without any promise or hope of better times, began to con slider my ways, and after examining the Greenback platform l found it suited my taste. It had promise of many good things, and as it is com mon for all people to turn to that which suits their taste, so over l went, and l did everything in my power to build up that party, be- lieving that through such party and on such principles as was set forth in the platform of said party, that our nation would become free nation and our people a free people. This was the wishes of the people, without political leaders, and the Democrats began to cry out, nothing but Republican trick, to scatter the votes of Democrats, to put the Re puhlicans in power, and the Repub- hcans seeing the fight made against the new party by the Democrats thought it a good time to get control of the same, and where they were not able to elect their own they would vote for the Greenback ticket, and endorse their works, until the Greenbackers thought that every man who was not a Democrat was a Grecnbacker, and they let in new leaders. The new leaders told the old leaders they would change the name of the party and cause others to join this great work, and they called it the Union Labor party, claiming that every laborer should join the new party. To make it plain, they adopted the demands of some secret organizations which were never intended for a political plat
 form; but they forgot to take the Greenbabk platform. So now con sidcr the party without foundation, and the leaders have discovered their mistake and are reaching out for help. The Republicans are ready and willing to help them, for the Re
 pubicans worked in the l.. l.. coun- ty convention, and L, l.. leaders in ! the Republican county convention, and also in the State convention, and indorse each others works. l have
 not been able to find the State plat form of the mixed party, but l know i it IS changed from what it was eight
 years ago, thus giving the Democrats n chance to slide in on the old Green
 back platform, for some fixed pnr'
