"A PENNSYLVANIA EXPLANATION.


Chairman KERR, of the Democratic
State Committee OF Pennsylvania, pre-
sentS the following explanation Of the
result Of the election in Pennsylvania
to Washington correspondent. Every
body will join in the hope that Mr..
KERR is right in his speculation and
that the result of the election was not
an Endorsement Of Quayism and Bards-
leyism by the people of Pennsylvania.
He says:
The Republican candidates at the late
election were men of unimpeachable in
tegrity. We made no personal issue against
them. They were selections made by the
party and not by the machine. This fact
was thoroughly understood by the Penn
sylvania Republicans, and they gave the
ticket hearty support As soon as the
old-time Republican majority was rolled
up Senator Quay bows 10 the country and
saws: This is my vindication. l am re
stored to the head of my party by this
election
AS as matter Of fact, Quay is no more
indicated than Bardsley, and none Of the
bitterness against him and his party has
died out The next time Senator Quay
comes before his party for personal vindi-
cation be will have on his hands the fight
of his life. There are thousands of honor
able Republicans who feel disgraced that
he represents them in the United States
Senate, and rather than see him continue
in that position they will vote for Demo
crat. In view of this fact we are next year
going to assist them TO retire him from the
United States Senate The Democratic
convention viii be called early, and 1T that
convention nomination viii be made for
United States Senator. The intention
is TO compel Quay to come for
ward in the Republican State convention
and annOuce whether he seeks reelection.
In the event that he does this, he
can only by the most desperate ma
chine methods get the convention
to indorse him, and even if that is
done there viii be Republican revolt
such as was not dreamed of in the Delama-
ter campaign, In the legislative districts
the fight would not be between Democrats
and Republicans, but between Quay and
and anti-Quay tickets. AL we desire is 10
compel Senator Quay to come personally
before the people for vindication, and l
think that the plan outlined will accom-
plish the result, unless he sees the folly of
attempting TO face public opinion and re
tires without a struggle.

THE Cincinnati VOlkSfreluld, the lead

ventlon, says that the national Demo-

ought to adhere not only to tariff re-

North Dakota Counties.

An Appeal Which Is of Great Interest to
North Dakota Counties.
BISMARCK, Sept. 25.-An action has
been filed in the supreme court, be-
ing an appeal from the court of Judge
Roderick Rose, of Foster county, in the
case eptitled John G. Yeatman VS.,
James King and Wife and the County
Of Foster. 1t is al action brought to
foreclose real estate mortgage exc
cuted in 1887 by King to plaintiff. In
1890 and 1891 King availed himself of
the seed lien law passed by the legisla-
ture of 1890, and Foster county supplied
him with wheat for seed on land incum-
bered by Yeatman's mortgage. The
statute in question provides that the
amount charged for grain furnished
shall be a tax on the land if not paid,
and shall be made good to the county III
like manner to other taxes. In effect
it becomes an incumbrance prior
to other mortgage indebtedness.
Judge Rose holds such cannot
be the fact; that seed lien is infe-
rior to a prior mortgage, and adjudged
the sale Of the premises in the order of
the claims. The county appeals. The
question is one of great Importance, as
many Claims of a like nature are the
subject of litigation in different counties

A MINNESOTA HURRICANE.

Ten Million Feet of Pine Destroyed in
Red Lake and:::;Leech Lake Regions.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mimi, Sept. est is
learned that most destructive storm
passed over the northern part of this
and Beltrami counties, telling an i'm
mcnse amount of pine timber, and with
out doubt attended by loss of life. The
particulars are impossible to set, owing
to the remoteness of the section. A
whole township is known to have been
swept over, the timber being leveled as
grain before the reaper.
One man, who has reached here, re-
ports an almost marvellous escape, and
says the chief of a surveying party was
struck by tree and died while being
removed. Several United States survey
ing parties were at work in the region
devastated.
If half that is reported is true, there
las been a damage to pine timber
amounting to many thousands of dol
lars. and if it is not Immediately cut a
loss of hundreds Of thousands as near as
car be estimated. The center of the
destruction was thirty to forty miles
this side of the boundary line and i'm
mediately north of this place.

of the negotiations intrusted to j. L.
Limantour, as Mexican commissioner,
to treat with United States Minister
Ryan on reciprocity, is strictly limited
to the provisions Of the American tariff
law in its third section. The question
to be discussed is simply what compen-
sation can Mexico give the United States
for the free admission of her sugar,

admission of lead ores free of duty is
therefore shut out. There is no idea of
