a three line item in last weeks issue
Of the UNION to the effect that the
Democrats talked of running q county
ticket Of their own has created consider
abe comment. The Democrats in
Princeton deny that they have any such
intention. Probate Judge Freer had
talked with some Foreston Democrats a
short time ago, and he informed US that
they seemed to want q straight county
ticket this fall. Mr.. John McCool, Of
Greenbush, also whispered in our ear that
prominent Democrat IN his town
advocated a straight Democratic county
ticket. There may be half q dozen
straight" tickets in the field, but the
people will vote for whoever they please
regardless OF politics. Politics do not
cut much OF a figure in local affairs,
and that is the way it should be.

Ten Nights in a Bar Room.

The drama of Ten Nights in Bar
Room has now been before the public
over thirty years, and, during that long
period of time, thousands upon thous-
ands Of people have witnessed its per-
formances, which alone is a sufficient
guarantee of its merits and popularity.
The story is a simple one; but its
strength, and from which one of the
finest of realistic dramas has been
woven-inasmuch that its whole ten
.dency is to portray the besettingi social
evil which, also, has been and is too
prevalent among class of people who
are either: drawn into its vortex from a
mere love of sociability, or a desire for.
drink, but both leading to one result
destruction to themselves or their fami-
lies, or both. The life of the temperate
and sober man and that of the inebriate
are admirably and truthfully portrayed
IN this his thrilling play exemplifyi the
happiness enjoyed by the one, and the
debaslng and degrading existence Of the
other. Ten Nights in a Bar Room, in
fact is an elaborate and hig lily illustrated
temperance lecture, five parts, with
magnificent scenic effects and stage APP
pointments, and finely rendered. Neso

Many good people in town will not at

thing is done that merits approval, and
such a course is also pleasing to the per-
former, but beyond that, it becomes a
veritable nuisance and bore. "a com

SPENCER BROOK ITEMS.

Sheriff Howard and Mike Mahoney
were callers at the Brook last Sunday.
They are jolly fellows.
DR.. Tarbox was called to Stanford,
Monday, to assist Dr.. Whiting in COM
plicated case of obstetrics.
Sunday morning last we had the hard
est shower of the season. The rain fell
in torrents for about one hour.
Frank Mead's letters in the UNION are
interesting reading. Frank is good
writer and we'll posted in politics. /
we'll recollect when he was editor and
proprietor of a. Democratic paper at
Hastings, Mimi 1t was during the war.
You were correct in reference to the
pension law, but the word 'sincapacita-
ted" is somewhat of an unknown guam
tity, and will take them all in. Soldiers
are very much like other people and
when there is money in sight they go for
it.
Robert, you say that the census count
shows a population of less than 5000 in
Mile Laos county, and that the vote next
fall will show that there are over 5000
souls. We are not going to dispute it..
We should not not be surprised if the
Republican vote next fall showed a
population of 10000. 1t has become
chronic with them to vote early and
often, and it appears that Enumerator
Briggs had no orders to count the Chip
pewa Indians residing in that county.
Another old soldier has answer his last
roll call. Geo. P. Wentworth died last
Friday after an illness Of about four
months. A complication of diseases re-
sulting in general consumption was the
cause. Mr.. Wentworth was born at
Vassolborough, Maine, in 1924. In 1852
he enlisted in a Maine regiment and
served during the war. In 1869 he came
Z q
to Minnesota and direct to Spencer
Brook where he had acquaintance who
preceded him, A. G. Nicholas and w.
A. Smith. He has been a resident of
Bradford during the past twenty -one
years. About two years ago lie succeeded
in getting back pension of $3.50 and
four dollars per month. He applied for
an increase and at the time Of his death
was drawing six dollars per month. He
was once married and his wife died
about the close of the war. He had two
sons, Albert and Charles. Albert died
a few years ago, Chas resides on the old
homestead IN Bradford. The funeral
services were held in the school house,
district Mo-, Alexander Martin otticiat-
ing. A large concourse Of friends and
neighbors followed the remains to their
last resting place in the Cemetery near

Removal of the Mile Laos.

WASHINGTON, Special Telegram, July
Is. The decision in the Mile Laos In
dians removal case has not yet been pro.
mulgated in the interior department,
although it may be expected almost any
time now. Different members Of the
Minnesota delegation have represented
to the secretary that the removal Of
these Indians to White Earth where they
can be under the supervision of the
agent, is a necessity not only for the
white people but the Indians. There
will always be a clash between the races
as long as the Indians are retained and
the white settlers believe that the
rights of the Indians were extinguished
by the act of 1884, and that they have
remained at Mile Laos only by sufferance.
THIS opinion is held also by prominent
attorneys.

Officers at the Army Headquarters Se-
riously Concerned About 1t.
CHICAGO, Nov 1S.-Officers at the
army headquarters here are seriously
concerned over the threatened Indian
outbreak in the Northwest. General
Miles was at his desk all day and until
late last night, consulting, advising
and preparing for action Colonel
Henry c. Corbin, who accompanied GEN
eral Miles to st. Louis to meet the
Secretary of War, and who is in full
possession of all the facts regarding the
Indian trouble, says:
IAN Indian uprising is not probable,
but the situation is certainly threaten
ing The only obstacle in the way of a
war is the weather. for the Indians will
hesitate, if they do not refuse, to take
the war-path in time of storms and
cold. A good blizzard in North Dakota
would be godsend. But if the war
does break out, it will be terrible be-
yond description. Before we have
always had the help of one tribe in
quelling disturbances in another. But
now the Sioux, Cheyennes, Crows and
Arapahoes are banded in a common
cause. They are well armed and their
Christ promises them that every Indian
who shall fall in war against the
white man shall be raised on that day,
soon to come, when the earth shall
open and engulf the whites, leaving it
to be occupied by Gods chosen people,
the savages. 1t will be religious war
--one of the most romantic and terrible
in the history of the world"
