The Gila Monsters Breath.

The "Gila monster" mention of which
was made in the Salesman last week. has
peculiar method OF killing its prey or de-
Tending itself from an enemy. A large
sized young chicken was inserted into its
cage last evening and as soon az it touched
the monster. which was lying in a semi
dormant state, the hideous reptile sud-
denly began to swell and puff its breath
in the direction of the bird. Only three or
four pulls were blown from the wide
opened mouth when the chicken toppled
over and died in just two minutes after it
was placed in the cage. The monster"
then proceeded to scratch the sand in the
bottom of the cage over its prey, after
which il rolled over and went to sleep.

THE SALVADOR REVOLUTION.


EuCbuFdgeu the IsisiHE.
San FRANCISCO, July I.-General Fabio
Moran, formerly commander of division
in the army of San Salvador, and who was
forced to leave his country at the time of
the election OF the late president Menendez
and take refuge in San Francisco where he
has been living since, will sail from here
Thursday for San Salvador. General Moran
held number of positions of trust in his
native country, among them that of minis
ter of war. In 1886 he was Republican
candidate for president of the republic, but
was defeated by General Menendez. Just
after the latter's election he issued an order
for Moran to leave the country at once I'M
der pain of death. General Moran's return
TO San Salvador is due to the recent dea, h of
President Menendez, and also to cable
gram said to have been received from a
leading government official at San Saliva
dor, urging Moran to return at once, and
intimating that he would find an oppor-
tunity to succeed Menendez as president.

and pointing out the great fertile
belt of Eastern Washington. Oregon
and Idaho which had been Withdrawn,
he asked Powell if he did not know that
that was great wheat producing country,
that there never had been failure of crops
and that only about per cent. of the land
he had Withdrawn did need irrigation.
Ali these questions Powell was obliged to
answer in the affirmative and could give
no reason for Withdrawing them from set
tlement.
Senator Allen showed conclusiyely that
any practical man could go through the
country and select sites for reserves which
could be withheld, while the settlement on
adjoining and surrounding lands could go
on uninterrupted. Powell acknowledged
every assertion made by the Washington
senator or evaded the questions entirely.

Not that we think Mr.. Wizard needs
any other defense than his own high
gcharacter and wide deacqnaintsncein in the
gBtate afford him, but because the more
light and the wider discussion which
the Mellette policy receives, the more

Stermine how much is politics and how
much philanthropy. So far as Mr.. Wizard
is concerned he is sbuAdantly able tc

We gather from che returns of the
local spring elections in this state that
prohibition was an issue In several
instances. We had supposed that this
question was settled for while at
least last fall, and we are at q loss to
understand what possible figure it
could cut in municipal elections at
this time. There could be but one
construction of such an attempted
issue, and that is, that In some towns
there was an element which desired q
wide-open policy on the part of the
city governments policy which
would countenance "blind pigs"
Ssspeak easys," and other like enter
prises In the face of the prohibitory
law. In other words, whatever issue
there was, was the enforcement of the
law against open violation of the
samoan issue into which the merits
( of prohibition do not enter at all; and
4 any town which has taken or does
take the negative side of this PROPOSE
tion Is sowing wind from which it
/ will reap an unlock editor whirlwlnd
of general Generalization. From q
financial point of view, the taxpayers
can not afford this sort of policy.
The loss of the license revenue is price
enough to pay for the experiment,
! without saddling upon any communi-
ty the cost of the prosecutions which
! must invariably follow repeated VIOLA
tions of the law; to say nothing of
the moral effect Of disregard of any
law on the part of any considerable
element in town. The prohibition
law is on trial In South Dakota, backed
by a constitutional provision adopted
by a decided popular majority. and il
is the duty of every good citizen tc
see that it Is enforced. If it will &C
compllsh all the good results which its
ardent advocates promise, then it viii

Rev. Wizard on Gov. Mellette.

Dawson County Gazette: In behalf
of the people of Mitchell, where Mr.
Wizard has made his home for several
years, and in behalf of the thousands
of people through South Dakota who
have learned to know and respect him
as an able, fearless and conscientious
preacher, true, helpful and generous
friend, and a cultured, broad-minded
and patriotic Christian citizen. the
Gazette desires to enter its vigorous
protest against the Redfield Journals
attack. There are many beside MIR.
Wizard who are willing to characterize
the course of Governor Mellette in
this matter as contemptible.' The
Journal says that the governors action
since these stories were first pub
lished will bear the light of the most
rigid examination. Has the Journal
forgotten that only few days before
the Governor swung around the circle
looking for destitution, that he en-
dorsed in his official capacity, the
statement of Commissioner Hsgerty
that each county in South Dakota was
abundsntly able to take care of all the
needy within Its borders, and depre-
eating, as of great damage to the state,
the reports of destitution that were
then being freely circulated? * x
Take the most charitable view posi-
BILE of the Governors conrse and 1t is
still contemplate. The Gazette has
already expressed its own opinion of
this entire business. This appeal to
the older states for their old cast off
clothing, etc. has done South Dakota
direct financial damage of more than
ten dollars to every one dollar which
1t has received, and besides the direct
| financial loss resulting, 1t has fastened
q stigma of pauperism upon our fair,
strong, young state, that it would take
more than one prosperous season to
remove.
| But to return to first principles.
Who is it that the journal character
izes as narrow-minded for thus criti-
cising Governor Mellette? II. d.
Wizard is known all over South Dako-
ta as one Of the brightest and best
posted men in the state. Active, alert.
and vitality interested In his work as
superintendent of the Congregational
churches, has of necessity put him in
position to become thoroughly &C.
quainted with the condition and needs
of the people. HI Wizard knows
more of the exact condition today of
the people, of what is called the destl-
tute sections of South Dakota, than

membership of the Holp, Mccoy and
