Democrats Convene.

pursuant to the call issued by John
Douglass, member OF the state commit
tee Tor this county, the democrats Of the
county met IN mass convention last Sat
urday to elect three delegates to attend
the state convention at Yankton.
The convention was called to order by
Mr.. Douglass, who stated its object, and
upon motion G. w. Martens, was made
chairman and G. G. Middlebrook, secre-
tary, and the following delegates to the
state convention UNANIMOUSLY elected
Z. w. Martens, George Mitchell and j.
IL. Cavanaugh. The delegation was in
structed to use it's best endeavors to send
Cleveland delegation to the national
convention, and to work for the election
of X. L. Gibson Of Grant county, as one Of
the delegates to the Chicago convention.
Il. +. Gibson and M. p. Martens we're
elected chairman and secretary of the
county central committee.
Owing to the bad roads resulting from
the late storm the attendance at the con-
vention was not as large as it would
otherwise have been, but what was lack.
ing IN numbers was made up in enthu-
siasm, and determination TO reorganize
the party for effective work IN the coun-
ty. The calamity epidemic which swept
over the county two years ago, literally
wiped the party out OF existence aud left
it without an organization, and since
then a good many democrats have been
asking themselves what has been the
gain to good government or party prin-
ciples, and the answer has not been at
all satisfactory. With the approach OF
the presidential campaign these demo-
Gratis believe that the party should be
organized and present SOLID front in a
battle for democratic principles.

WHAT THE WIND TOLD.

WHAT THE WIND TOLD.
When I started, 1 was a small
breeze IN the ice and snow, near the
North Pole. After a long journey
over mountains OF snow and ice, I
crossed a large river, and by asking
the people, who lived along the river,
[ found the country to be Alaska.
United States bought this country
from Russia in 1876, for S7.5OO,OOO.
Alaska included 100000 square miles.
The people who live here are Indians,
Russians and Hsquimaux.
The name Of the river I came to
was the Yukon. I think it one of the
largest and most beautiful rivers in
the world. The forests and mineral
wealth are very valuable. From the
river | started Tor the coast. On my
way 1 passed over a town and could
only Q tops Of houses ab6ve the
snow. l inquired how the people go
into these houses, and found they got
IN by tunnels or shafts. The dogs
sleep on the tops OF the houses to
keep warm. These dogs are not of q
very good kind, but more like the
wolf, and they eat fish. 1 did not
blow very cold here because 1 felt
sorry for the poor dogS.
After n few days Journey I passed
over a trading-poeb where people
dipping water out of a hole in
the ice and other people we're putting
in wicker baskets, to catch fish. The
fish seemed about all salmon
Going on I reached the coast and
there 1 saw a queer way they buried

Of baryinG them Ia the ground, they

Here I changed into q. Spring wind
and the snow began TO melt and the

see the people wearing wooden Cog
giles, with a small split in them 80 as
to see through. If the people did not
year them they would become blind,
