plus forced an extension OF the national
bonds, and compelled an Ohio secretary
OF the treasury to resort to tricks OF
bookkeeping and subterfuge unworthy
of his office in order to conceal the
deficit and deceive the people.
Pre-eminently also does tho Repub-
lican leader in Ohio stand for that tariff
measure which was rejected at the polls
last year by the people of the entire
country; measure designed, as has
been well said, in the interest of monop-
oily, by monopoly, for monopoly; a
measure which is bringing about the
worst of all entralizations-the central
ization of wealth, with its debasing and
destructive results; measure which
already in many cases has made less
work and lower wages for productive
labor; a measure which has forced the
farmer of Ohio to sell his wool in some
instances as low as 20 cents per
pound, and that, too, in q market
where he pays more dearly for hundreds
of necessary articles, which are but in
sufficiently sweetened with the humbug
of bounty on home-produced sugar,
measure which forces from the labor
of the country $14,000.000 each year
for the benefit of prospective
mines, owned by capitalists who
live in England, and prospective
tin plate works. to be operated by labor
imported from Wales measure which,
as it came from the hands OF its author,
did not, in the opinion of an eminent
Republican, open market for another
pound of pork or another barrel of flour;
a measure which could not be forced
down the throat of the reluctant senate,
until sugar-coated with the old Demo
cratic doctrine of reciprocity.
Let the Republicans of Ohio who have
not gone mad on protection, come over
this year and stand with us upon the
backward march toward the tariff of
Washington, or, better yet, enroll them
selves under the banner inscribed with
those burning words of Garfield. Let
the well-meaning men who train under
the name, Farmers Alliance, or of the
Peoples party, and who seek to remedy
the real grief brought about by Repub-
lican legislation, remember that no third
party can succeed, but that with us and
as part of us, they can help to swell
the joyous hosanna that will peal to
heaven from the tax-burdened people of
the entire country, when the glad It'd
ings go forth next November that we yet
are in the possession of the old Republi-
can citadel, now the Democratic Buckeye
state"

The legislature of South Dakota is far
ahead of the North Dakota legislature in
one respect, and this is in providing for
che publication of the laws passed at the
last session in the newspapers. It is q
mistaken idea of some amateur statemen
that this was advocated by the newspapers
for the mere pittance of compensation at
eached to it. The papers would have had
to cooperate together and furnish the
publication in supplement to save them
selves from actual cash loss in supplying
their readers with the session laws at $35,
but they were willing to do that for the
ediAcation of their readears and the people
generally. Perhaps the first knowledge
come will have of the new laws will be in
the way of prosecution for unknowingly
violatingit it. Our legislators thought moth
ing of "playing horse' at an expense of a
thousand dollars day to the state, but the
proposition to furnish the people of the
state with the laws they passed, through
tho newspapers, struck them like batter
ing ram in an economical spot. But the
newspapers are themselves to blame in
part for this. They are to blame for ad-
vocating the election of mo. IL boots and
No. 8 hats" as Col. Plummer calls them,
to the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Capital.

John Brooten, of Willard, was arrested
and brought before Justice Kimes on a
warrant sworn out by Rev. Martin Shirley.
According to the complaint, Mr.. Brooten
had threatened to do Mr.. Shirley bodily
News and Stockman.
The Rev. Shirley referred to is a man of
unsavory reputation. He went to McHen-
ry county with faint on his character,
which was exposed at the time by another
Norwegian minister, but by threats, this
scamp Shirley bull-dozed the other fellow
into silence. After going to Willard he
robbed the very man who had extended
him every hospitality out of his home
stead, and turned the family out of house
and home without a dollar. We presume
he has lorded it over the Norwegian ele-
ment ever since he has been there, and
now he seeks amenity at the hands of the
law. Mr.. Brooten, the defendant, is an
old resident of Willard, and is peaceable,
honest, thrifty citizen, and possesses the
intelligence and manhood to resist every
encroachment upon his rights. There is
q vast difference between the subjects of
this sketch,-Mr. Brooten is MAN; Rev.
Shirley is cur.

Editor Leader: Late news is scarce

Louis Heath passed down the river a
few days ago, but only stopped about one
day at Conkling. He talked about going
route.
The Conkling neighborhood was glad to
welsome John ellsworth and his family
back again. Jack found his stock all right
on the ranch, being carefully attended to
by Alfred Edlund. John is going to farm
it the coming season. He brought pair
of American horses with him and will now
have three teams. He is hustler, and
think will make it pay this season. Mrs.
Chesworth's lady friends were delighted to
see her.
James Heath and his family received a
box of goods last Saturday shipped from
Iowa, which contained many valuable ar
ticles of clothing, very useful to them after
their loss by fire.

has become of Detective?" but I don't
know who can answer it. Tho last heard
of him he had become "law-giver." It
appears that Moses, the ancient law-giver,

the angels buried him, and no man hath
seen his grave to this day. But do not

Easter Sunday.

Tomorrow is Easter Sunday, very
early date. The earliest date on which
Easter can fall is March 22d, and this only
in case the moon is full on March 81, when
this day happens to fall on Saturday.
This combination of circumstances is ex-
tremely rare. It occurred in 1898, 1861
and 1917, and will happen again in 1895,
2O76 and 2114, while during the three fol-
lowing centuries it is not once on the
books at this early date. On the other
hand, Easter never falls later than April
25. This was the case in 1850, 1884 and
1860, and will only happen once in the
next century-namely, in 1943.

'The best charity is that which worketh
no evil, that prompts US to speak we'll of
our neighbors. We are ashamed to con
fess that our quickest instincts are to
think i'll of Others or to magnify the ill of

Well, Mr.. Editor, how does that agree

Williams County.

In house bill 1873, introduced by Hon.
John Satterlund of Mclean county, Great
ing revenue for the state by increasing the
boundaries of certain counties, the old un-
organized county of Williams was alb
sorbed by the organized counties of Stark
and Mercer, and a new county created out
of the territory now embraced in Buford
and Flannery counties and given the name
of "Williams'' county, in honor of Hon. E.
A. Williams, one of North Dakota's most
popular and beloved citizens. The new
county of Williams already has popula-
tion Of nearly 1000 people, with an ample
number (over 1907 legal voters to effect an
organization, which happy event can be
consummated after the 1st of July next,
at which time the new law creating the
county goes into effect. The new county
will embrace about 100000 acres of land
and have over fifty miles of railroad pass
ing through her territory. Taking the
revenue which the railroad will furnish,
together with the immense herds of stock
owned within her borders, Williams coun
ty, at the incipiency of her organization,
will enter upon an era of financial pros
perity which no other county in the state
ever enjoyed at its birth.
For all these blessings, which are con-
tingent only upon organization, the people
of Williams county will be indebted to
the working members who conceived this
grand scheme to increase the states reve-
nues by bringing all property within the
legitimate sphere of the law.
Inasmuch as there has never been a
public survey of land made in the territory
embraced in the newly created county, the
LEADER will say that by making applica-
tion by petition to Hon. E. A. Williams,
surveyorgeneral, at Bismarck, the people
can secure an early survey of their lands
the coming spring, and this application
should be made at once.
For the benefit of those who may not
have been fortunate enough to have seen
the new law, We give below section 6 of
the bill, which refers to and describes the
boundaries of Williams county as she will
stand on and after July l, 1891, the names
of Buford and Flannery to be hereafter
wiped off the map:
Sec. 6. Williams county shall be bounded
az follows: Commencing at the intersec-
tion of the 18th guide meridian the same
being line between ranges 81 and 95)
with the north boundary of the State,
thence south and along the 18th guide me-
rldian to the center of the Missouri river,
thence westerly and along the main chan
mel of the Missouri river to the west bound
ary of the State (the same being the 9th
degree of longitude west of Washington,
ID. C,) thence north along the west bound
ary of the State to its intersection with
the north boundary of the State (the same
being the 18th parallel of north latitude),
thence east along the north boundary of
the State to the 18th guide meridian and
place of beginning, all being west of the
6th principal meridian.
