highlands south of Newport, Ky, alb
sented themselves from the lost without

they were under orders to play at a GER

more, they all got drunk during their

Cable Cipher Codes.

The ingenuity exercised in devising
cipher codes is astonishing to veteran
travellers. These little volumes are now
published in convenient form to be car
ried in travellers pocket aud contain q
list of five or six hundred English words
selected more for their telegraphic eu-
phony than on any other consideration,
arranged alphabetically and each with
its meaning in plain language set oppo-
site to it The number of words,
phrases and sentences which q single
cipher word may mean when flashed
under the ocean is astounding. For
instance: In Lows new pocket code
the word ~scamper" means Telegraph
in cipher as soon as you receive the
copy of the pocket cable code which /
send you for that purpose. The word
-enarched" means, Check book has
been lost or stolen; please stop pay
graphic euphony is alluded to an expert
will readily understand that the object
desired in cipher words is collection
of letters, the telegraphie symbols for
which are most readily intelligible to
the ear of the cable operator, the tele-
graph sounds, for instance, for IN" and
e" are SO nearly alike. it is said, that
certain unions of those letters have
been avoided as far as possible. The
system on which code may be ar
ranged is we'll shown in this series oi
three definitions: Liberties" means
ain reply to your;" %Libertine," which
means "in reply to your letter" Lib

shown into a sitting-room where a very
pretty woman in o soft morning wrapper
was lying on the sofa reading the paper.
She rose as he came in, and he thought
of the lady's maid whose description
would "fit almost any one."

smile, "you came about the jewels. OF

Here is a sample of McKinleyism
that Republicans can take pride in.
We rejoice that the man who rates
principles above expediency is the
unanimous choice of Ohio Republi-
cans for governor, which means that
he will be elected, in spite of third
party OBJECTIONS and the present dem
ocratic administration of that state.
This sturdy talk is from McKinley's
speech of acceptance:
We are confronted by real danger,
which prudent men of all parties
should seek to avert before it is too
late. The public credit and sound f.
nances must be preserved and every
scheme to destroy it must be met with
courage and intelligence, and repelled
by the mighty force of public opinion
Better risk defeat, which can be only
temporary, than capitulate with the
demagogue or surrender to dishonesty

foreign products can be found to tax,
which compete with our own in oul

party prefers to tax the domestic pro
duct rather than the imported. Then

in 1877, there is every reason which
existed then and others still stronger
why he should receive the unanimous
and enthusiastic support of his party
for reelection.
Minneapolis Tribune: Although the
new Minneapolis linen mill has not
yet started up under full pressure, il
has been running in quiet way fol
two or three days, for the purpose Of
testing the machinery and getting
things in shape before opening the
manufacturing of toweling. Consider
able cloth has been turned out how
ever, and experts who have examined
it declare that it is equal to the product
of any of the foreign mills, besides be-
ing much more cheaply manufactured.
In short time now full force of op-
eratives will be put on and the hum of
the looms begin. Nearly all of The em-
ployes will be women-girls, the ex-
ception being the foreman, breaking
machine tenders, and the engineers.
In all about $50 people will be given
work. AS most of the operators will
be inexperienced, it will not be run at
its full capacity at the start.
New Ulm Review: Instead of rails
ing the price on everything, as our
Democratic friends predicted it would,
the bill has had tendency to force
many things down and send nothing
up. Sugar has gone down, and, what
is better, in such manner that the
people know it and rejoice. Cotton
goods have gone down, in fact were
never SO low. Even tin has decreased
in price, and the laborer, instead of
paying ten cents for a tin-cup, as he
was led to believe he would have to
last fall, is still permitted to buy it for
the same price as ever. Nothing of
any moment has advanced in price,
and in face of all this it does not look
as if McKinleyism had been or de-
served to be condemned. On the con-
trary, the Review is inclined to think
with Democrat of this city, who was
frank enough to make the admission,
that it was sorry thing for the Dem
ocrats that the passage of the McKin-
ley bill was not postponed until two
months before the presidential cleo
ton instead of being passed in time
to let the people think over it, and
profit from it's provisions.

NEWSPAPER MUTATIONS.

Winona Republican: By recent
edict of the Kansas Farmers Alliance
judicial candidates in that state will
be pledged not to confirm mortgage
sales. T. remains to he seen whether
political party can pledge a Judge
not to enforce the law.
St. Peter Herald: Tho Mankato
Free Press is out for O. B. Turre]l, of
Redwood Falls, for congress to sue
coed John Lind. The republicans of
this district do not seem to have
awakened to the fact that they are not
in it. The next congressman from this
district is to be an alliance democrat
of about such proportions as Dan
Buck.
St. Paul News: When the student
of history in the next century reads
that practicing physician was ex-
pelled from the profession for adver-
Using his ability to perform cures, it
will excite much the same feeling of
indignation, mixed with pity, that is
now aroused by the recital of a burn
ing for witchcraft. The world do
move, and the man or profession that
stands still gets run over.
Madison Press: The movement for
the election of United States senators
by a direct vote of the people seems to
be gaining strength very rapidly. SEN
ator Palmer, (democrat) from Illinois,
was elected to the senate on that issue
and is pledged to present and support
a bill providing for such constitu-
tional amendment. This is a demo
cratic measure, but it is just and fair
one and should receive the hearty sup
port of all parties.

The statement that Minnesota now

The statement that Minnesota now
has port from which large vessels
may 60 direct to Liverpool or any of
the great ocean marts is calculated to
set one to thinking. This statement
relates to the steamer Wetmore, which
sailed from Duluth for Liverpool re-
Gently with 10000 bushels of wheat.
Editor Bowen grows prophetic over
the incident. "The western extremity
of the Atlantic ocean," remarks the
News, sis Duluth harbor. The clear
ance of the Wetmore for Liverpool
marks, therefore, the beginning of that
mighty commerce which is before us.
The untold millions which the resource
es of the West shall produce, will be
carried unbroken from Duluth to the
markets of the old world. The traffic
of exchange will be returned here and
distributed to the boundless empire
that is tributary to the head of Lake
Superior. The Wetmore's venture will
hasten the work of improvement along
the Sault Ste. Marie, the Welland ca
nal and the st. Lawrence, until the
largest vessels can pass with safety
and promptness. All the energies OF
science, the enterprise and skill of man
and the liberality and fostering care
of government will be stimulated in
renewed endeavor to make way for the
enormous trade that stands ready tc
be poured through these artificial
gates"
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1891-06-25

In a recent Issue a leading English
paper thus appeals to the British tin
plate makers:
"You must reduce the price of tin
plate at once. Every reduction made
by you increases the chance of chok-
ing down the new American mills for
a year or two, when the Mckinley law
may be repealed"
This explains the reduction in the
price of British tin plate by which the
foreign manufacturers agree to sell
their product at the old rates, paying
out of their own pockets the increased
tariff tolls demanded by the McKin-
lev law.
