A FINE RESIDENCE.
A Handsome Addition to the Homes o
 Phpnix.


 Ph9nix.
 Among the beautiful homes that have risen above the verdure of embowered Phoenix, none are superior to the resi- dence of w. J. Horner, lately completed on Van Buren street, in the northeastern part of the city.
 It is a twO-story structure, built of brick, with hooks, many corners and gables, and while in no particular style, yet has a symmetrical and most pleasing appearance, viewed from the outside. Light colored porches encircle the red painted brick walls and, iauntily set at one corner of the building, is a tiny steeple that seems to give just the finish ing touch to the artistic effect.
 The promise given by the exterior is fully kept inside. The house within is a marvel of arrangement for comfort and for cOmpactness. On the ground 4loor, on one side of the hall, are the parlor and two bedrooms, on the other side a small dining room and tiny kitchen, with buttery and china closets between. Below the kitchen, and con venient to reach, is an airy cellar. On Che second story are two large rooms, which will be used for a billiard room and library.
 The interior finishing was nearly all the work of the Phoenix Flaming Mill and is of redwood, polished and oiled. The doors are beautiful in design and would compare iavorably in workman ship with any imported. The latest ideas in plumbing are appropriated in the connections with the bath tub and sink, sliding shutters are upon the windows, automatic bells upon the doors and everything has been constructed solely with view to comfort and convenience. The building was erected by Frank Smith, who was also the architect, though Mrs. Horner's own ideas were followed in the arrangement of the in- teriOr. The structure Tn size is 32x48 feet. The walls are from twelve to eighteen inches in thickness. The total cost was fully s6,500.
 Though Mir. Horner has been in this city but about eighteen months, he has in that time secured the six lots facing the grounds of AttOrney-General Churchill, and has erected upon each lot brick residence, five of them being rented. He is man of considerable capital and believes that he has here found, in local real estate, the safest investment and the one most likely to return large profits. Of such citizens Phoenix can not have too many.

THE COUNTY COURT HOUSE.
Improvements that Are Needed-The Jail
 should Be Moved.

Improvements that Are Needed-The Jail
 should Be Moved.
 There is no doubt whatever of the fact that the County Court House is quite inadequate in size for the necessities of the various offices and of the court and prison. It must be enlarged in some manner, or quite an amount of altera- tiOn be done upon it. The Board of Supervisors and the Assessor occupy one room and for their valuable records have nothing safer to keep them in than their wooden cases. A pretty pickle the county would be in if an the books of the Board were burned up.
 The most important improvement would be the removal of the Jail. This disagreeable though necessary part of the system of county government should be moved across on the lots owned by the county on Jefferson street and be placed in a new and secure building. Back stairs would give ready communication from the Court House to the Jail. The large room now occu- pied by the Jail would then make seve- ral fine offices and rid the Court House of nuisance that should have been long ago removed.
 New offices could be allotted to the Assessor and Board of Supervisors and vaults put in for the preservation of the books and business papers of the county. Another jury room could he thus added up stairs, and the facilities for the dis patch of all legal and county business could be much improved.
 After the Supervisors fund the county indebtedness, they should turn their attention to Court House improvement.

PLENTY OF REASONS.

To the Editor of the ST. Paul Globe
VIII YOU, as the editor of the leading DEM
ocratic paper of the Northwest, please, i'll
your next Issue, enumerate five reasons why
/. young man, for the first time voting this
fall, should vote the Democratic Tickets By
GEORGE F. DANIELS,
Sept. 90, 1890. Minneapolis.
Most assuredly we can. We could
give you five times five good reasons why
every young man should vote the DEM
ocratic ticket.
First-Because you are young man
and want to start right.
Second-BecauSe when you grow old
you want to have record that you will
not be ashamed of. BY voting the DEM
ocratic ticket all your life you will be
free from political sins.
Third-The principles of Democracy
are the foundation stones of popular
government. Democracy means gov
eminent of the people, by the people
and for the people.
Fourth-There is no incentive to a
young man to support party like the
Republican party, which is VIGOROUSLY
the agent of monopoly. and which,
when i'll power, compels every hard
working American citizen to yield up a
certain portion OF his earnings to a
privileged class. The Democratic party
is opposed to both the shadow and the
substance OF monopoly.
Fifth-Every young man with lofty
ambition and patriotic impulse must
| ally himself with the Democratic party
because wealth is the only avenue to
distinction in the Republican party.
The Democratic party is the only party
in which manhood counts for some
| thing,

THE WAY TO DEFEAT 1T.

1t is the policy of the Republican pa
pers, in districts where the character OF
the force bill is understood, to acQuieSce
in the view that 1t was killed in the re-
tirement given it when the trusts de-
manded the tariff first. In his speech
at st. Louis. the other day, Senator
VEST stated the condition on which it
was deferred by its friends. Senator
HoAH was the guardian of the measure
in the senate. and his acquiescence in
the postponement was secured by a
written agreement signed by forty-four
Republican senators that the force bill
should be taken up on the first day of
the next session and pressed for passage
at the expense of all other measures.
The forty-four comprise one-halt the
membership of the senate, and can
easily pass any measure when vote is
had. 1t may be true that the minority
in the senate could delay its passage,
but it would be at the expense of needed
legislation and result in ultimate de-
feat, as the majority would not hesitate
to change the rule sufficiently to secure
the passage of the measure, if they are
in earnest and signed the pledge in rood
faith to Mr.. HOAE. The only certain
way to defeat the dangerous and revolu-
tionary policy is for the people to speak
through the ballot box in tones that the
conspirators will not dare disregard.
The Republican Schemers want this ma
chinery to operate with in 1892. 1t is de-
signed to put the control of the presi-
Dental election in the hands of the
tools of syndicate at Washington COM
posed of the QUAYs. REEDS and CLARK
SONS of the party. There would be no
other guarantee of honest elections and
free ballots than the interests of such
| devoted partiSans.

SEALS HIGHER

The New York Evening Post very
rightly warns the trade and the
Iublic to hurry their laying in of
Sealskins and Sealskin Garments
for 1890-9l.
Under the headline, "Sealskins
Are Scarce" the Post says:
THE very limited catch Of seals
this year has caused a feeling of
CONSERVATION amongst furriers,
and many of them predict a famine
in the Sealskin market in 1891. The
demand for garments and trim
mings made of this material is
steadily on the increase, but it is
difficult to see how it is to be met
next year by the available SUPPLY
interviewed upon this subject, the
head of Ransom & Horizons Fur De-
partment states: 'We are doubt
less the largest holders of Seal
skins in bale, and Sealskin Gar
ments and articles made up, of any
retail fur store in this country.
We detected the upward movement
in fur goods, especially Sealskins, a.
long time back, and therefore
stocked up heavily before the real
squeeze in these goods happened;
and ladies are evidently ferreting
our good luck out. because our
orders are already twice what they
were this time last year."

NORTH DAKOTA POLITICS.

The Dangdon Democrat, after going
over the whole political situation and
the candidacy of Hon. NJ. n. johnson.
winds up with the following swee ping
declaration: ''The only satisfied men
in the party are MAZE Edwards, Jud

gineered the deal. "-Bismarck Tribune.

'Free binding twinew Glory to

CAMPAIGN STATE NOTES.

The Republican press has discovered
that A. j. WhIteman is deficient in in
teIlectual power. 1t is wonderful what
a difference politics makes. II he were
in favor of taxing the West through a
high tariff for the benefit of Eastern
manufacturers who are already rolling
in wealth, they would regard him as a
statesman of great intelligence
erd Journal.
We are not supporter Of Judge Will
son for governor of Minnesota, but we
do say that Mr.. Wilson is in every way
a more capable man for that high office
than the present man whomwe have to
tolerate, all because he has lots of
money. Democrats who do the stump
speaking this fall can go before the
people and tell them that Mr.. Wilson is
self-made man. By industry and hard
work he has made a record for himself
that any American citizen can be proud
of. Quite contrast between him and
Merriam.--Sleepy Eye Herald.
Col. Plummer evidently mistook the
nature OF his audience. The farmers
of this county are not of those who pur-
sue the monster tariff with loaded shot
guns. This Western country is settled
by people who have as rule, received
common school education. More
ignorance is found in older settlements
in the southern part of the state, where
there is also an Older class of people
who grew up when educational adj
vantageS were not so abundant.
Speeches like that of Col Plummer
might take we'll i'll such communities,
but in this county we prefer more logic
and fewer empty assertions. more truth
and less poetry.-Norman Herald.

more to injure the Republican party

COMING PRICES.

The task before the congressman of
this state, to persuade the people that
they are benefited by the advance in
prices of the needs of life caused by the
tariff act they voted for, is not an easy
one. Attempts 10 evade the facts will
not do. They are too plain. Yet in Ne
braska, the other day, a tariff speaker,
driven to the wall. had the cheek to
say:
when people tell you that the
tariff has increased the price of any
article which the farmer buys, ask the
orator to stand in his place and tell you
what that article is"
The statements of dealers showing
the advances to be made in many lines
Of goods have been given. The adj
vances are likely to be found too small
rather than exaggerated, as the law
comes into full operation and the con-
ditions of trade are adapted to the
law. The Dry Goods Economist of
New York says of the effect already
! felt: Prices are now about 10 per cent
higher than in August on all spot goods
in which wool plays prominent part
as raw material; linens and knit fab
| rics have improved in the same ratio"
| They will go higher, of course, as goods
are taken from first hands. Axes have
| gone up 81 per dozen, saws 10 to 40 per
cent, window glass 20 per cent. A Cir
cular from leading dealer in guns says
the tariff will advance the prices from
% to $50 per cent. In opposing the bill
| in the senate, MIR. PLUME read letter
from dealerin common crockery ware,
in which, after showing some of the adj
| vances to be made by the new tariff, he
| said:
1.-The American manufacturers in our
lines have all grown immensely rich
within fifteen or twenty years. An ill
vestigation by you will prove it. They
require reasonable, decent amount of
protection, and have had it; and having
prospered under it. what occasion is
there for giving them more?"
The senator added: 81 know, if eX-
ternal indications mean anything, that
the pottery manufacturers are wealthy.
| know that they are rich far beyond
the people l represent. They have had
enough. They ought to be satisfied"
1t is reported they are showing their
gratitude by contributing literally to
the fund to be used for the election of
MCKINLEY and the congressman who
voted with him.

A PoHrTICAL BUNCo GAME.

The great achievement claimed for
the Republican delegation in congress
from this state is the reduction of the
duty on binding twine TO Seven-tenths
of cent a pound. This is to be special
ly paraded for local use and to divert at
tention from the increase in the cost of
other articles used by the farmers.
They must swallow the entire enormity
because the protection workers have
graciOuSly thrown them 4 sop at the eX-
pense of consistency. But even in this
the confiding twine users in the West
are likely to find themselves the vic
tins of bunc0 game. The Eastern
manufacturers who operate the Irvine
trust have assurances that after the
emergency in the West is past, and the
farmers have again been beguiled to
sacrifice their interests for the party,
the seven-tenths of cent duty on Irvine
will take on new proportions. Before con-
gress adjourned Massachusetts con-
gresham. in the interest of the trust,
introduced in the house bill to raise
the duty Oh twine to = cents per pound.
This was not made conspicuous, but
was referred to the committee On ways
and means, which is to bring it in for
passage when congress meets after cleo
ton. Chairman MCKINLEY assured the
mover of the measure that it would
have a good chance for passage at the
December session. This will depend
very much upon what sort of voting is
done in November. Should the protec-
tiOnists conclude that the farmers of the
West don't NEAR very much by their
movements, and will come up to the
party trough in 1892, fodder or no fod-
der, there will be no hesitation i'll Civ
ing the trusts any little additions, where
they are not quite satisfied. They pay
for what they get to the party treasury,
and their recompense must be had.
