THE NEW CHANCELLOR.

Gen. CAPRIvTS hair did not turn
white in single night, but he did wake
up one fine March morning and find
himself famous. The man who succeeds
BISMARCK must be the observed of all
observers, and he has got to be mon
strous big man intellectually if he can
bear up under the scrutiny. Gen. CAP
RIvI is a stranger to US on this side of
the Atlantic, so that we are dependent
on what his home people say about him
for an estimate of his ability to wear
BIsMARCK's shoes. The very fact that
he is to be deprived of the direction of
the foreign ministry is evidence that the
German emperor does not consider him
he equal of BISMARCK in diplomacy.
He is a soldier of high reputation in the
German army, so we take it that he
has been elevated to the chancellorship
solely because of his military qualities.
And this leads to the conclusion that
the young emperor, who is enthused
with military ardor, is indulging the
dream of imperial conquests such as
shaped the life ana policy of FREDERICK
the Great. His rejection of BISMARCK.
together with his selection of CAPRIvI
as the formers successor, leaves no
doubt as to the emperor'S views and pur-
poses And yet it is not certain he will
find such a thoroughly staunch sup
porter of his ambitious schemes in CAP
GIvI as he now imagineS. The new
chancellor is SAID to be a cool, clear
headed, conservative man. blending

THE ORANGE rARIEE

Oranges have been so reasonable in
price Of late that few who have taste for
them could not indulge with some free
dom, but this new tariff is to make them
more select in their vistations. A tariff
of % cents on any quantity less than
cubic foot is to protect the growers from
foreign competition. People have been
going down to Florida, to California,
and the other orange regions, and are
understood to be doing extremely well
in growing the very palatable and juicy
fruit that people all over the country
are eating as never before because it IS
moderate in price. The duty on those
coming in from the ports of the Medi-
terranean and other foreign ports. can
all be added to the home products, and
it is usual to round out the figures
little. 1t is assumed that Democrats
will look kindlyupon tariff on oranges.
as they are product of Democratic
states, but it is all the same of a piece
with the protection policies-a robbery
of the many for the benefit of the few.

SOME STATE FIGURES.

A detailed and interesting examina-
ton is made by the Moorhead News Of
the population of the state by congress
sional districts, with a view to special
claims for the Fifth district in the au-
tumnal political roundup, or later. Its
figures indicate very unequal develop
ment in the state, so far as population
is concerned, during the closing decade.
In 1880 the census gave the state pop
ulation of 7S0,773. In 1885 the state
count showed 1,117,79S, an increase of
43 per cent or little more. At that
ratio the enumeraturs the coming June
will find population of LOGO, $50. There
is little doubt that the population of the
state will be found to have more than
doubled in the decade, and the notable
feature is that the increase is mainly
confined to two of the congressional dis
trictS. The old settled southern part of
the state has held it's own, but has contrib
nted of its surplus to the growth of other
sections. The First district numbered
16S, 112 in 1880, and 16S, 1853 in 1885. The
ratio will make 1t l69,7 us this year. The
Second grew from 166. 46S to 1873, 12S, and
will have 22l,32S in June at the same
rate. The Third went from 155, 091 to
175,5S3 in the first half of the decade,
and is expected to number 19S.700 this
year. The Fourth jumped from 1863, 294
in the first five years, and the same
ratio will give it 7337, $50 on the first of
the coming June. 1t will hardly fall
much below the figures. Those are
big figures for one man to represent in
congress, when the ratio is but 1872, 900.
The News, however, is of the opinion
that the ratio has not been maintained.
The Fifth district started in with the
smallest figures of any district, having
but 117,SS9 in 1880. Five years later it
had 223,920. The great develop
ment in the mining and lake
region renders it probable that
its ratio has been kept up. This will
give it 1924 by the coming census.
The point made by the News is that
this development of numbers will en-
title it to the candidate for governor
next fall. 1t insists that if MERRIAM is
to be renominated by his party again
the Fifth will demand the next United
States senator. That is matter for il
to settle with the party that has been
making governors and senators in this
state. An easy inference from the fig
ureS is that congressional provision
forbidding any change in the apportion-
ment once made in decade, may work
very great inequality in representation.
This is the case now In this state.

A CHANCE FOR HILL.

The New York legislature has again
made up an issue with Gov. HILL on
ballot reform, repassing the measure of
last year that was vetoed. 1t would be
great disappointment to the Repub-
licans if the governor should waive his
objections and allow the bill to become
law. Had the Republicans been sin
cere in their professions in favor of bal
lot reform. they would have accepted
the compromise urged by the friends of
the governor, that was conceded to re-
tain all the essential features for the
protection of the voter. The majority
was met in liberal spirit by
the D. )crats, and the latter
were earnest in their efforts to
effect compromise. One of the lead
ing Republicans warned his fellow
partisans that they were going too far.
and the people would see through their
hypocritlcal pretenses in forcing veto.
Gov. HILL is probably not a man large
enough to put aside his consistency and
accept the measure, even with its in
tentionalIy obnoxious features. Could
he do so, he would rise in popular esti-
nation as statesman.

ON ERIN'S SHORES.
Written for the Globe. /


In dreams l revisit thy shores, Erin,
And the haunts where i'll childhood
strayed.
Every tree, messy dell and sweet streamlet
Seem to welcome me back to their shade.
The hawthorn blooms in the hedges
And violets still glisten with dew
In thy woodlands, thy meadows and mount
aims.
Meath skies serene, sunny and blue.
Fair views in the tranquil blue distance
Of old castles half-hidden in green
Reflected in clear, placid waters,
Adorn the picturesque scene.
But / wander alone and unnoticed
Mid scenes once familiar and dear,
Imagining still hear voices
Melodiously whispering near.
They are but the sweet notes of wild Warblers
Concealed in the sheltering trees,
And the rustling leaves as they sport in
The breath of the odorous breeze.
Or, perchance, it may be the faint cadence
OF some far-away: sweet native song
As the wind watts the echo along.
Oh Erin! though pillows divide us
And toilSoma years sadden my brow,
A spell of enchantment steals Ger me
When in dreams revisit thee now.
But It's not the fair views of tiny mountains,
NOR yet the glad nightingales song.
That sheds the bright radiance round me
When the hosts of fond memories throng
o memories so tender dear Erin.
Of thee, in thy beauty and pride,
When roaIned through thy woods III the
summer,
With the friends once loved by my side.
Thou hast not forgotten. o Erin,
The wondrous story of old,
OF the meeting of two, in the cleaning,
A tale that has often been told.
Though the frosts of the years may have
Whitened
The locks once of sable and gold
OF the youth and the maiden that fingered
IL the shadowy twilight of old.
Still, the JOY of that dream so enhancing,
All, Erin, thou can st not forget
For tho parted by time and long distance,
Its mem'ry is haunting them yet
And the hope (wh0 Shall say It's vain one?)
That sometime and somewhere again
They shall find amongst spirits immortal
The dream that enchanted them then

Communion All the Time.

Jamestown Capital.
To Offset the demands of the churches
in South Dakota for the special privi-
lege of using intoxicating liquors in
communion service provision was in
corporated in the bill allowing families
to keep liquors in their houses for their
own use. The bill embodying both
these special privileges was passed and
has been approved by the governor.
The churches opposed and still de-
nounce the provision in favor of fam
lilies as scheme for opening the way
for club houses that will be technically
out of the reach of the law, and to off
set this club has been organized over
in the Black hills as religious organi-
cation in which communion service will
be held all the time.

sagacity with patience, resolution with
good humor, and it is altogether
probable that he will use his station to
check the fiery ambition of his youthful
sovereign. His partiality for the army
and military service will most likely in
duce him to cater to the emperor's de-
sire to provide for a better organization
of the army and to increase its force.
At the same time he is known to be OPP
posed to the emperor's scheme for in
creasing the navy, and will insist upon
the BISMARCK policy of pacification. If
the new chancellor can control the
young emperor sufficiently to restrain
his ambition to win military renown by
provoking war with other European
powers, then he will indeed have proved
himself to be greater man than Bis
MARCK. But there is no probability OF
that. A fool who thinks himself wise
in his own conceit will not be restrained
by human forces, so that, perhaps, after
a tempestuons voyage of few months
in the ship Of state, Chancellor CAPRIvI
will abandon the helm, just as BIS
MARCK has done, and will let Ger
many's madcap emperor learn wisdom
in the only school where fools can be
educated-in the school of experience.

The Woods will Be Full.

WaterVlIIe Advance.
1t is claimed that large majority of
the farmers present at the late Farmers
alliance state meeting are Democrats.
The supposition is probably based on
the theory that every producer in the
West who has become weary of unjust
taxation to enrich the Eastern manu-
facturers and quietly asks for an abate-
ment of the war tariff tax, is Demo-
crat. If that belief makes a man
Democrat, the woods will be full of such
Democrats in 1892.

Eastern capitalists paid premium for

mournful tales of the state press and
the outrageous eXaggerations of East
ern papers, is indeed surprising. One of
our prominent merchants, who has just
returned from business trip, states
that all people in the East know of Da-
kota's poverty in certain sections, and
