A Good Man,

From the Bloomington, wis.
Record we clip the following obituary
notice OF VIM. Harvey, father OF w.
H. Harvey, OF this city:
"Wm Harvey, born at Litchfield,
Herkimer Co., New York, the 10th OF
April, 1918. Moved to Copley, Sum-
nit Co., Ohio. In the fall OF 1887
where he renamed until 1850. He
was married the 10th OF September,
1910, to Miss Maria ARNOLD, OF Ohio.
lie went to California in the spring of
1850, remaining one and ons.half
years. He then came back to Ohio
and IN 1852 he came to Grant county
settling on the Mlsslssippl bottoms
near where Mrs. Bagley now lives.
The old log house stills stands to
mark the spot. In 1861 he moved
on the farm where he remained until
death.
Thus another of Grant county's
earliest pioneers has passed away.
He was an honest, hard working man,
and good citizen, always taking
much interest in public affairs. He
was for several years a member OF
the town board of supervisors. He
will be sadly missed in this com
munity."

Government Railroads.

Much has been said and written ad-
vocating that the United States gov
ernment purchase the railroads and
manipulate them as it does the pos
tai system. On the face Of the matter
the project would seem feasible, but
the question will bear more than pass
ing thought.
When the myriad of duties which
would be involved upon the govern
n,ent by such an undertaking are con-
sidered it seems as il the "whistle"
might prove to be an expensive one.
There are go many distinct depart
ments, so many chances for unneces'
sary waste, and such an army OF en-
ployeeS to control. that loop-holes
would exist without number. 1t
would be almost impossible to detect
fraud where so many persons were
employed and the waste would be
simply enormous.
The only feasible plan, in our opin
ion. would be for the government to
establish main lines to all the more
prominent ports and inland cities OF
gre ater mportance-operating those
lines at bare cost, or trihe more and
then compete with lines owned and
operated by the railroad kings OF the
continent. In this way rates would
be established that would work a
benefit to all clas Ses in almost every
locality. The farmer might ship his
grain as cheauly as a corporation and
at no risk of having his shipments
docKed "at the other end" 1t seems
to the REGISTER that the establish
ment of a thorough system OF through
lines Of government railroads would
work q great REVOLUTION in the right
direction Let the subject be thorough
ly dIscussed-some good may yet be
accomplished. The people OF the
United States wish to see all men
prosper, but prosperity and robbery
are widely apart in the true sense OF
the terms.

An Enthusiastic Mass Meeting.--- will
Help the Needy.
The mass meeting held at the opera
house last Friday evening was largely
attended and everybody present came
with single purpose in view--that OF
rendering assistance in some way to
those who had been less fortunate
during the past season.
DR.. Lewis McLouth was elected
chairman and Philo Hall secretary of
the meeting. Music was furnished by
a large chorus OF our most prominent
singers and the Second Regiment
band. Stirring speeches were made
by Lieut.. Peter Leary, Mr.. Ripley s.
Lyon, Rev. A. M. Work. Byron E.
Pay and others. The applause which
interrupted the speakers manifested
the deep interest entertained by those
present.
Motion prevailed that the chair
appoint a committee Of twelve to act
as executive committee-this COM
mittee to have full charge OF the work
IN hand. The chair made the follow.

The Lutteman Sextette .

Through the earnest efforts of some
CT our enterprising citizens, Brookings
will be favored by q visit of the
greatest musical treat ever presented
on the American stage. We need onlv
to refer to the following compli-
mentary notice, taken from the La
Crosse wis., Republican:
IF all musical organizations were
az pleasing in their performances as
is the Lutteman Sextette, it is to be
feared that class OF entertainment
would take precedence over ALI others.
The Lutteman Sextette were pre-.
ce-ded by the most fattering testi-
monials and press notices, and La
Crosse people had formed q high
opinion of them; but those who
heard them last night were entirely
unprepared for the treat in store. La
Crosse has had the pleasure OF listen
ing to many famous organizations of
q like nature, but it is questionable if
q more perfect concert OF voices or a
sweeter harmony Was ever beard here
than that which filled the theatre
last night and reverberated in SYM
phonious echoes from the walls and
nooks of that enclosure. Marty every
seat in the house was occupied, and
the audience soon became one of the
most enthusiastic that ever greeted
the singers. Encores were generously
given and as kindly received.
The character sketches OF Mr..
Edward p. Elliott were highly pleas.
ing, also, and contributed largely TO
the success of the evening. Mr.. Elliott
has all the natural gifts for success in
his line, and evidently knows how to
utilize each one."

THE COMING FLOODS.
Reports from the Headwaters of the
Bravo and PecOs that Mean
Something.

If reports from the mountain regions
comprising the water sheds of the Rio
Grande and the Rio Pecos can be relied
on, the greatest volume Of water that has
fallen in twenty years is in store for the
lower valleys this spring. In southern
Colorado and northern New Mexico the
extraordinary snow fall of the past win
ter is not yet over, lit is evidently snow
ing again in that region to-day, and the
canons and gulches are packed with a
perfect mass Of frigid moisture, while the
snow on the level is from one to five feet
in depth. This too, when the ground
is already thoroughly soaked with water
from lste fall rains which, because of the
steady cold weather all winter, has not
had chance to flow off. This 1s an un-
usual state OF affairs in that region.
Along the upper Pecos and throughout
the Santa Fe range Of mountains about
the same conditions prevail. Capt. John
d. ItOn is in from the upper Pecos valley
too o'sy, and states that in his thirty years

Tidings
Fun in Washington.

WASHINGTON, March 5.-The house of
representatives Of the 51st congress went
out in a burst of song. Its ending was re-
markable and unprecedented and a scene
similar to that which followed the declara-
ton of the speaker that the 51st con-
gress was adjourned without day, it is
safe to say, never occurred before in
the congress of the United States. The
vocalists of the house on the Republican
side of the chamber gathered in body
near the front row of desks headed by
Mr.. Coleman, of Louisiana, Mr.. Yardey,
Of Pennsylvania; Mr.. Stevens, of New
York, and Mr.. Wade, of Missouri, and as
soon as the house was declared adjourned
they started up the stirring war tune
Marching through Georgia, which was
taken up by the great mass Of the Repub-
lican representatives, who made the hall
ring to the great delight and admiration
Of the gallery packed full Of people. A
Democratic chorus, headed by Represen-
tative-elect John j. O'Neill, of Missouri,
started with the "Doxology," but their
voices were soon drowned in the superior
volume of sound from the press gallery
Of the house, the reporters having taken
up the song.
