SIOUX CITY, Iowa, June 26.-The fol-

food at Cherokee have been received.
The wagon bridge over the Sioux, south

HILLS HOT SHOT.
Republican Assumption and Hy-
DOCrisy ScorChe0.

Republican Assumption and Hy-
pocrisy Scorched.
New YORK, Oct SIN opening, Gov.
Hill said the present campaign involved
the same contest as in recent years-a
contest between political honesty on
the Democratic side, and political hy-
pocrisy on the Republican side. He
then reviewed the points and plans in
the Democratic and Republican plat
forms, and continued: "Our opponents.
notwithstanding the peculiar uprising
OF last fall, not only refuse. to repeal
the Mckinley BILL but have the sublime
assurance to assert that the tariff ques-
ton is settled. l tell them that no ques-
ton can be regarded as settled In this
country until it has been rightly settled.
They will discover that the agitation
Will continue until justice is done, and
that all thelr efforts TO prevent it Will
prove unavailing. The question is here
to stay. Its discussion is demanded on
every hand.
Dealing with the currency question,
the governor said: The Democratic
party has planted itself firmly and
Soundly upon the principle of bi-metal-
ism. We denounce the present Shcr-
man silver law, not merely as authOriz-
Ing the coinage of silver dollar whose
value IS constantly tiuctuating, but also
as false pretense and artful hindrance
OF return to free bi-metallic coinage,
and as tending only to produce change
from gold to silver recommendation The
Sherman law is a degradation of the
currency-a prolific mother of UNEQUAL
dollars, miserable makeshifr, an IN
worthy subterfuge
The Democratic party does not be-
lieve that parity of the two metals or
equality of all dollars can he attained
by any law which encourages daily
speculation In silver, which regards one
metal not as money but as merchan-
disc; which prescribes how much a sec
rotary OF the treasury shall buy and
how much lie shall count out to the peo-
pie; which establishes not coin. but a
paper currency-a new-fanglcd legal
tender-each dollar protected by what
ever 37l4 grains of silver may be worth

THE DULUTH ROAD.

The annual meeting of the Stockhold-
erS of the st. Paul d Duluth Railroad
company was held in this city yester-
day, and the roads report for the year
ending June So 1891, given to the pub
lie The directors whose terms then ex-
pired were reelected, as were all the
former officers. The showing for the
twelve months is good one. There
was an increase of Sis, 626.2 % in passen-
ger earnings over the previous fiscal
year, and an increase in freight earn
ings of SSS, 59117. This enlarged
business, represented by a total
in receipts of S211, 441.1S, was han
died with an increase of only a
little more than $4,000 in operating
expenses. Under the plan adopted
when the company was recognized
some years ago, after sz4ing the inter
est of its bonded indebtedness, its In
come, whether from earnings or the sale
of lands, is applied first as far as need
be to the payment of per cent divi-
dend on its preferred stock, of which
something over S5,O0O,OOO is outstand-
ing. The roads earnings were suffi-
Gent to meet over siX-seventhS of this
charge for the past year, and the re-
manning One-seventh was made up from
the income Of its land department. and
g surplus of S175, 032.63 left, with which
that amount of the preferred stock was
retired and cancelled.
These results have been achieved in
past by development of the roads
terminals. Duluth is every day grow
Ing in importance and the line which
connects it with st. Paul is naturally all
the time becoming more valuable prop
erty. There is no limit to what the
future may make possible in this way.
But this would not be enough to ac-
count for the present showing. Along
with the progress of the city at the head
of the lake has come Increased compe-
ttiou. Where the st. Paul & Duluth,
few years ago, had practically
monopoly in this field, it now has almost
as many rivals as there are railroad
lines in the Northwest. 1t has held its
share of the business only because it is
literally and carefully managed. No
company is more popular than it and no
one more deserves the position which it
has achieved and is achieving.

LONDON, Oct SIT has now been de-
clded that the funeral ceremonies of
the late Charles Stewart Parnell will be
held at the cemetery at Glasneyen, a
village about three and a half miles
north of Dublin, Sunday next. The
body will arrive in Dublin Sunday
morning. and will be taken in state to
tire city hall. and from there the funeral
will proceed. Extensive preparations
have already been commenced in view
OF the monster demonstration which is
sure to follow. The supporters of Mr..
Parnell in parliament will surround the
hearse,
Justice Mccarthy tonight said no
movement had been made by either sec
ton of the Irish party towards recon-
Citation, and that it was likely nothing
would be done in that direction until
after Parnells funeral. All the Ma
tionaiists would certainly attend the OBJ
sequies of their former leader. and he
hoped that meeting of the opposing
sections of the party on such an occa-
sion would result in reunion of the
Irish forces.
Dr. Covers said to-day that during
the patients dellrium. some hours be-
fore he died, he talekd constantly of
Ireland, and told what he would do for
her if he lived
The Patriots Last Words.
In brief lucid interval, lust before
death, he said-and they were almost
his last words-"Let my love be con-
veyed to my colleagues and the Irish
people" When these words were sub
sequentIy communicated to meeting
OF the delegates, many of them burst
into tears.
After giving the subject considerable
dellberation the medical authorities
have decided to forego the proposed
post norton examination. DIR. Growers
and two other physicians carefully eX-
amined the body before it was deposit
ed in the coffin, and they agreed that
there was no necessity for an examlna-
ton. The remains have undergone a
rapid change-so rapid, indeed, that it has
been found advisable to close the shell.
There will be no religious ceremony
here. The body will be conveyed to
London Saturday, arriving there in
time to catch the Irish night mail train.

wonderful provision in the artesian

There seems to be no doubt that the
supply is quite adequate to the needs of
production in the entire region, and the
tests so far show it is financially feas-
bic to make it do agricultural servic e.
The new we'll on the Valley Stock farm
is sample and suggests what may be
done. A four-inch stream rises seventy
feet above the ground, and affords water
enough to supply every man, woman
