formed by reading and observa

men know more, have a
broader knowledge and in
telligence, and are, conse-
quenlly, sltrewder and more enter
prising. Compared with the bus
iaess men OF any former period,
the merchants OF TO day are far
from ordinary men in their field Of
effort in life. And each day is
making the field wider, and in,
creaslng the number Of the 2leces-
sary qualifications for success in
it. Why. the salesman of the
present d;sY, no matter in what
line or where you find him, is a
man of. bright, quick understand
ing, such AS entities him to rank
with the energetic and successful
men of any class. Then when you
come to the MACS who has large
capital invested, and who must
foresee, plain and direct in regard
to the interests Of great house
from season to season, you behold
an individual who, IN this day
must be brave, calm and farsight-
ed to succeed at all. A business
man in the present vortex of trade
IS not a mere seeker for a living
or a fortune, but lie is necessarily
a man OF intelligence, self-reliancc
and experience which eleyave him
to the rank Of those who succeed
by both mind and energy.

WILLIAM or HOLLAND DEAD.

Holland died at a. m. His illness took
O sudden turn for the verse IN tEs esen-

Queen Emma was Mt once summoned,
and remained with her husband until
his death. The kings last hours were
peaceful, life sbbing quietly away. Inn.

the sad event the palaces and other pub
lie buildings were closed, and at all

With William III dies the male repre-

He was the son of William /, but only

was born in 1877. He ascended the
throne in 1849. His only issue is by his
second wife, Emma, being daughter,
Wilhelme, now 10 years of age. The
kings death sewers from Holland the
duchy Of Luxembourg, which will
probably become attached, under the

succession to the throne of Holland in

One of the earliest and bravest
champions Of the anti-slavery cause
died last month at Boise, Idaho. His
name was John r. French, and he
edited, with his father-in-la Nath-
aniel P. Rogers, the first paper in New
Hampshire which favored emancipa-
ton, at the time when George Thomp-
son, the English orator, was mobbed
in Concord for speaking against the
crime of holding human beings as
slaves. French's paper, the Herald
Of Freedom, was contemporary with
Garrison's Liberator. Later he was
prominent in Republican politics Ia
Ohio, a Treasury official in Washing
ton, member Of Congress from North
Carolina and for nine years Sergeant
alarms of the United States Senate.
At the time Of his death he was the
editor of the Boise Sun. I learned
the printers trade in his Office, in
gainesville, Ohio, and he was my first
partner in the newspaper business.
When / was brought into Washington
from a Virginia battlefield, badly
wounded, his friendly and unweary-
ing ministrations brought me comfort
and hope. He was man of fine,
heroic temper, always ready to serve
a good cause and to help friend, but
he was lacking in.the practical, selfish
qualities which make what the world
calls successful man. He left no
fortune but he is sincerely mourned by
all who knew him well. Northwest

1t strikes us, as it must everyone
who has anyIegard for justice and
right, that it would be more in keep
ing with humane government to give
little more attention to the suffering
condition of white settlers in some
portions of our country and not ex-
pend all of its sympathy and aid for
the worthless Indians who are ready
on the slightest provocation to murder
these same white settlers who are do
ing so much to develope the resources
of the country. 1t has been the
policy of the government, for these
many years, to spend vast sums of
money ON these worthless vagabonds,
who, with very rare exceptions, are
only Indians, no matter how thor
oughly they may become civilized
and s.chsffiisstt tanned. Indians in the
Dakotas have been fed, clothed and
given money, while in those same
states white settlers have been suffer
ing for food. And now these blood
thirsty redskins are showing their
gratitude for these acts of kindness
by threatening to destroy the homes
and murder the white settlers. Yes,
it is high time to stop feeding these
savages and furnishing them with
arms and ammunition with which to
murder 'pale faces" They viii
neither work nor show any decent ap-
preciation of the kindness extended
to them by the government, and the
great majority of them deserve to be
treated ON the principle that ''the only
good Indians are dead Indians"

A New York free trade paper, the
Commercial Bulletin, is prompt, now
that the election is over, to admit that
a lower tariff VIII mean lower wages,
by declaring that the elections mean a
reversal of the past action of congress,
a repeal of the Mckinley bill, and
hence "a basis of reduced cost OF raw
material, labor and plant This is
precisely what all protectionists urge,
that the cheaper raw material and

to denounce the tariff bill adopted by

something to take the place of it, they

these factories were driven to the wall

When the Minnesota Farmer
Will be Prosperous.

Pioneer Press: When Eli Perkins
(Mellville D. Landon) was passing
through St. Paul, he was asked when
he thought the Minnesota farmer
would be prosperous.
"He will be prosperous" said Mr..
Perkins, ''when he can get dollar a
bushel for wheat"
"And when will that Gomez"
1T will never come from Europe.
England will never take dollar wheat
from this country, because she can
always buy wheat for IS cents in
Sweden and Norway and so cent
wheat in India. When wheat is worth
ST. bushel in Minnesota it can not
go to England. But dollar wheat
will very soon come in this country,
through home consumption and de-
crease in it's production. The surplus
wheat which now goes out and which
drags down the farmer is about co.
100000 bushels"
"But how can this be stopped or
lessened?"
-Four things will accomplish this
decrease of wheat in less than two
years, and the farmer will be on top
again and the consuming manufac-
turer.w will be UNDER
