! Concerning the recent legislature,
the St. Paul Globe says: ut is all
over now, and when we look at the
monument erected it does not seem to
be quite worth the $4,000 which it
has cost. If the total expense had
been $4,000, perhaps the dissatisfac-
ton would not have been SO general,
but $4,000 is great deal Of money,
and there ought to be something to
show for it." Earlier in the year the
Globe had reason to hope to be able
to comment differently on the work Of
the first and last combine"

The reform legislature with econ
omy us a battle cry has made by for
the heaviest tax levy ever made in
the state. The Democrats and
Alliance have spoiled all the ammuni,
ton they had for campaigns, and the
worst Of it is they can secure no new
supply. Their future campaigns will
be campaigns Of apology.

1t is noticeable TINT the only name

1t is noticeable that the only papers
that are now quoting prices aud tariff
schedules are Republican. The re-
suits six months after the Mckinley
bill went into effect are not near
enough to the Democratic predictions
to warrant any quotations Of market
prices. Now is an excellent time for
them to show the dear people how
they are taxed by the tariff.

The Pioneer Press is doing a valu-
lble work in advertising Minnesota
by counties. On Tuesday a page
was devoted to counties In the north
.rn part OF the state, and the follow
ing description was given OF Morri-
on county. =. =
+ morrison county lies on both sides
4 the Mississippi river, just south of
Crow Wing and Cass. With the ex-
ception of q small area GIFTS western
portion, which is rough, the surface
is generally level and the lands are
GOOD. East OF the Mississippi it
partakes Of the quality OF the central
eastern counties Of the state. A
large part of it is heavily timbered
with both pine and deciduous woods.
All the land is fertile, and the county
is SO large that there is a desire for
immigration. It is already well de-
veloped in almost every respect. AL
though named as one Of the frontier
counties, it's schools are said to be
excellent, and it has sixty school
houses. OF it's mixed population
which numbers about 1925, a major
ity are Americans. Good lands can
be had in most parts Of the county,
in almost any quaint ties, at from IS
to $40 for unimproved lands, and i'm
proved lands are selling at moderate
igures on five and ten years. time.
rhe state has nearly $4,000 acres Of
school and internal improvement
ands in Morrison county, and the
government Il ,440. There are 34,S64
acres OF lands belonging to the st.
Paul & Duluth railway, 10000 acres
belonging to the Great Northern and
9,677 to the Northern Pacific. With
such large amount of land as this
still unoccupied, Morrison county
should be Chief objective point OF
immigration for some years to
come.'

A WEST VIRGINIA GIRL
UECI VIhUINIA UIhL
Held for the Attempted Murder Of Her
Husband.

SPRINGFIELD, o., Dec. 1I.-Mrs.
Walter Nichols who now occupies a
cell in Jail for attempting to murder
her husband with razor Saturday,
Nov. 21st, at Cold Springs, in spasm
Of jealousy, has tried hard to conceal
the residence of her parents, hoping
thereby to keep them in ignorance of
the sad affair and spare them from
knowing the disgrace she had brought
upon them. They know all. The
news of the cutting was flashed over
the wires to the metropolitan papers
and the secret she tried so hard to
keep was shown to her aged father
in paper by friend two days after
it had occurred. There could be no
doubt. 1t was his daughter, and the
fathers love she expected to lose, if
the crime became known, did not de-
sert her. A letter was received from
him to-day by Mrs. Mayor Burnett,
who interested herself in the ladv's
behalf. which explains all. She is
the daughter Of r. Lunsfcrd, Of Ca
bell county, West Virginia. Her par
ents are highly respected people, and
spared no expense in the education
of their child.
Mrs. Nichols was sent to board
ing school where she met her future
husband, whom she tried so hard to
send to a distant land She was only
seventeen years old, and in the dead
of night stole away from the school
and eloped with him. They resided
in West Virginia for several years,
and then came to this city. Her
fathers letter speaks of her hus-
bands cruel treatment of her, and
wonders how she refrained SO long
from ending his miserable life. He
advises her not to go to trial until
he is able to be present, and to EN-
ploy the best attorney in the city. In
closing he warned her to say nothing
to the reporters, who, he claims, will
hound her to death.
Her brother is expected here this
week to bail her out. He will be ac-
cempanied by an attorney, who will
try to introduce her husbands al
legged brutality to her while in West
Virginia as evidence. George Raw
Inns was retained yesterday and will
also look after her interests.
