SILVER.

The silver question has met quite
a setback IN the house, while it was
expected it would go through with
out any trouble. II will be called up
again soon, but in the mean time
Wall street is doing its best to de-
feat it. In Colorado silver non-par-
tisan clubs are being organized every
day, and the state is taking great in
terest in the movement. New Next
co is greatly interested in the ques-
ton, and ought to be waking up and
doing the same.
The following shows how the ques-
ton stands in Germany, another
country, like England, that persists
in the gold STANFORD:
In the German reichstag there are
four men who fight for a double
standard-Count Won Musbach, a
conservative; Herr Won Kardoff and
Her Leuschner, free conservatives;
and Herr Won Schalacha, center. All
of these, with the exception of Herr
Leuschner, are away from Berlin.
Herr Leuschner, who is privy coun-
clllor, member of the royal Prussian
state council and director of the great
Mansfield mines, said it was scarcely
worth while to talk about the matter.
ave are in hopeless minority" he
declared. "There are only four of
us in the reischstag who occasionally
speak for silver. The members of
the government are all in favor of
gold. Our following in the reichstag

powerless at present. But some day
there will come a smash, the result
Of all this perverse financial policy.
The only thing which has saved Eu-
rope formerly from the impending
'krach' (smash-up) has been the BIZ
metallistic policy of France. 1 hope
that America will accept the free
coinage law. 1t will make America
silver country. 1t will take away
from England all her Asiatic trade of
the silver countries. There are $780,
100000 people who use silver money
only; the first great commercial pow
er which adopts silver will get their
trade. AS it looks now, America
will be that country. England, when
she sees herself losing that trade, will
introduce silver coinage and Germa-
ny will have TO follow suit. All 1t
needs is for one country to start the
ball rolling.

A few evenings since our report

tifully illuminated buildings of the
Smith Premier Typewriter works on
Clinton street, and upon investlga-
ton found that owing to a large in
crease in business they were obliged
to run twelve hours a day, operating
between 800 and 400 employees. Con
sidering the rapid growth of the
business referred to it is very appa-
rent to the proprietor that it will be
absolutely necessary during the sum
mer months to build another factory,
and in fact the plans are nearly ar
ranged for the construction of new
building cf dimensions 6OXl40 feet,
seven stories high. This new struc-
ture, in addition to the present build
ings, which have every nook and cor
ner filed with operatives, will admit
of working at least 600 people, and
if the business continues TO increase
in the future as it has in the past it is
very certain that the company at no
distant day will require all the type
writers that 600 operatives can pro-
duce. We are informed that no other

A BIG FIRE AT SAUK CENTRE.
The Dubois FIGURING Mills. the Water
Works Plant and Other Pro-
perty Burned Last Night.

The buiness portion of Little Falls
was thrown into fever of excite
ment last night by a telegram from
Mayor Dean ofSauk Centre addressed
to Mayor Richardson stating that
the business part of Sauk Centre was
a-blaze and asking for aid to quench
the fiery demon, from Little Falls.
Mayor Richardson was absent and
the message was delivered to Chief
LaFOnd OF the Fire Department., who
at once ordered the firemen to assem-
BILE at the city hall. Before the men
started for the depot it was learned
that the water works were rendered
useless by the fire so the hose carts
were abandoned, the chemical engine
gotten out, d team secured and the
machine taken to the depot Awork
train, in response to request by
Agent Ward had been ordered out by
the Minneapolis officials and the en-
gine was loaded on a 1iatcar, the men
got aboard OF cabOOse and every
thing was in readiness for a start, in
charge Of Conductor Murphy and En-
gineer Barnes, when another telegram
came that the fire was under control
and that the assistance of the Little
Falls fire laddies would not be need
ed.
When the first telegram was re-
ceived the mill had been burned, and
the water wheel, which also operated
the water pump OF the Centres water
works, had been rendered useless, the
fire had communicated to Il ware
house adjoining and thence to the
Northern Pacific depot. Every thing
had been removed from the depot
when the fire was put out by men
with buckets and further danger had
been averted.
The mills. which were known as
the Dubois mills, were the mills for
merly owned by the Mcclure estate,
and had just been sold by DR.. Dubois
to a recent conner named Davidson.
They had capacity of about 300 bar
rels and the blow is a severe one to
Sauk Centre, which is not blessed
with an abundance manufacturing
industries anyway.
The Little Falls boys showed their
good will by getting ready to- go over
and while very glad that the occasion
did not require their services, would
have gone and would have done good
service for our neiUhhOrinp city.

The old country press does not sum
up the Swedish Norwegian conflict
very tavorably. Separation or war
are reported to be the only possible
events under the circumstances.
Either solution is for both coun-
tries so dangerous, that it should be
hoped that a more peaceable settle
ment could be made. The only one
at present in view is that the king
sanctions Norway's claim for an inde-
pendent consul system. AS far as
Norway is concerned it is impossible
to retract without making break il
the country's independence and con
stitution. The two countries shoulc
have learned so much in the last hun
drcd years as to know that the road
to peace and happiness lies not owe
