The shelving Of the free coinage
issue would weaken such hold as the
Republicans still maintain in the west
On the other hand, the Democracy are
well aware that to go into the cam
pairn on a free coinage platform would
be TO invite, in New York, at least, the
same fate that befell the Democracy OF
Ohio at the recent election on that ISSUE
When both parties agree to postpone
until 1893 consideration of free coinage
it may be set down as binding agree
meut. But there is another argument
as strong as political expediency, in
its favor. The impotency of the United
States alone to rebabilitate silver is per-
fectly we'll known. What may be done
by international agreement is another
question.
The most satisfactory solution OF the
silver question for the present Is 10 re-
fer it to an international commission, to
meet during the Columbian exhibition.
THE will Of the late MICHAEL REILLY,
which will be found complete in another
column, is an interesting document. 1t
is remarkable for the length OF time
required for the executors to carry
out its provisions. The present ex-
ecutors, or those whom they will ap-
point to succeed them, must administer
the estate until the death Of the longest
lived child, or grandchild Of the de-
ceased. now living. This carries the
duties Of the executors through three
generations, and maybe a century, or
more, Of time.

Our Great Mail System

The report OF Postmaster General
Wanamaker among other things says: I:
"Five million dollars added to the gross
revenue; the deficit reduced nearly ST.
0OO,OO Money order offices increased
two thirds, or from 10,070 to 16.689.

Ocean mail service extended; and pneu-

pears that in the last four years, 5,051

traversing 20, 800 miles: that the num-
ber OF postoffices has grown by over

On free delivery the postmaster gen.

Red Lake Timber.

J. W. Howes, deputy United States
marshal, is very familiar with the Red
Lake Indian reservation and its timber
resources. Back in 1884 he took a trip
to the tract to buy logs from the Indians.
He has very high opinion Of Red Lake
timber. Speaking Of the country he said
in an interview:
4The timber is largely hard pine. South,
east and northeast OF South Red lake is
the pine belt, the natural outlet being
through the Red lake river. The falls
in Thief river make serious obstruc-
tion to driving, but an inviting location
for saw mills. There is likely to be q
thriving city there some day. I had
charge in 1890 of an expedition to in
yestigate the Red lake timber under the
auspices Of the secretary OF the interior.
While we found immense tracts of tim
Der very valuable for manufacturing
purposes, I was surprised at the guam
tity and character Of the farm land"

To Restrict I'm migration.

There is little doubt but that some
measure looking to the restriction OF
immigration will be adopted by the
present congress. Senator Chandler
has prepared for reference to the joint
committee on immigration, OF which he
is chairman, bill to be introduced at
the earliest possible moment and
pushed to its passage. The opinion
of the committee on the bill Is said to
be practically unanimous. It provides !:
1. That the admission of alien i'm
migrants for settlement or residence,
now allowed to enter the United
States under the act OF March 3, 1891,
and to the immigration acts, is hereby
suspended and prohibited for md
during the term of one year from and
after the LIST day of March, 1898,
except to the immigrants coming from
the countries OF North and South
America.
2. 1t shall be the duty of the Sec
retary Of the treasury to make and issue
rules and regulations of the enforce
ment Of the prohibitions for this act
which will not hinder or delay the
admission Of the returning American
citizens or of aliens coming as visitors
or for temporary soiourn in the United
States.
The third provision provides for the
return of such immigrants, and the
punishment Of those who aid in bring
ing them over.

Capt. Peter Pascoe Leaves The
Republic Nine.

| Capt. Peter PaScOe Leaves The
Republic Nine.
On Wednesday. November 80. Capt.
Peter Pascoe severed his connection
with the Republic Iron Company as
Superintendent. after continuous
service Of more than 81 years. He
was the first Captain employed, and
under his direction the mine has been
developed and operated and to htm be-
longs much of the credit for it's success
full operation. Prior to 1878 the mine
Produced GAG, ,744 tons of ore and since
that date, including the season just
closed, 1904, 500 tons. making total
product in round Numbers of 4,500, 900.
It is business that has outlived the
most prominent OF its incorporators,
Edward Breitung, David Morgan, Mr..
Hicox and others. making for each Of
them vast fortunes now in the hands Of
their heirs, to considerable extent due
to the result, skill and watchful care Of
the Captain who has spent the best
years Of his life ns tue faithful servant
of the company, and who now retires
with little else than the satisfaction of
knowing that his work has been we'll
done. The fact that the men most
largely interested in the enterprise from
its inception and who held his services
in highest esteem have passed away,
tempers the condition OF his retirement
with phase OF pathos. If he has not
wealth he has the record OF the good
citizen, the skillful miner and common
friend Of humanity that will servo as a
Joy IN the remaining years Of his life,
and enable him to bequeath the price
less heritage of good name. The vote
accorded HIM on the 9th of November
by the people Of the district. tie county
and especially of his own town where
he was best known. as candidate for
the high Office of State Senator, is the
indisputable evidence OF esteem In
which he is held wherever known. Be-
yonJ discharging the duties Of Senator,
for the term, he has no plans for the
future. --Negaunee Herald.

Peter r. Gottsteip, prominent pio-
neer Of Houghton county, was stricken
with apoplexy while at Superior with
the railroad excursionists, last Satnr-
day, and expired before reaching
home. Mr., Gottstein was born in Ba-

children. Besides having accumulated

the line selected can not be told, and it
is probable that others may be run, and
the one the least costly and with the
least grade chosen. Many gentlemen
hereabouts having property along the
possible line are anxious to learn what
the final decision will be. There is no
way to do but wait developments.

The morning news., 1892-02-03

The contest Of ex-Congressman Davidson
for the seat OF Senator Call ia virtually
settled. The committee on elections has
made a unanimous report in favor Of Sen
ator Call. and it does not appear to have
experienced much difficulty in reaching the
conclusion it has announced.
In view Of the fact that the report Is a
unanimous one it is hardly probable that
1t will be the subject Of debate when it
comes up in the Senate. It will be adopted
at once and, in all probability, without
any dissenting voices. There is, Of
course, some disappointment In Flor
ida at the outcome Of the contest, but
it is probable that the number disappointed
is not greater than the number gratified.
Senator Call has strong political friends In
Florida. as well as strong political
enemies. If an able aud popular
man had made q thorough canvass
Of the state for the senatorship
before the legislature was elected, the
chances are that he would have beaten
Senator Call But nothing OF that kind
was done, and when the legislature met the
opposition to Senator Call had several sem
atorial candidates in view. Il is not TO be
wondered at. therefore, that he secured the
prize.
The MORNING NEWS took the ground
from the first that Senator Calls election
was legal, because a majority of all the
members Of the legislature voted for him.
The fact that a majority Of the senators
absented themselves from the Senate on the
day fixed for the joint session was matter
Of no consequence. The law does not re-
quire that majority Of each house shall
take part In the joint session to elect a
senator.
The governor Of Florida, however, did
right in Withholding a certificate Of cleo
tion from Senator Call. He believed that
the senator had not been elected, and, that
being the case, 1t was his duty To give the
United States Senate an opportunity to
pass upon the question. II the governor
had not taken the course he did there
would have been great deal of dissatis fac
tion throughout the state 1t would have
been freely said that Senator Call was oc-
cupying a seat in the Senate to which he
was not legally entitled. Nothing of that
kind can now be said, however. The
United States Senate has decided his title to
be good, and there will be general acqul.
escence in its decision.

the querulous complainngs Of the old goose.
but its voice. after being several times cut on,

At dawn Mrs. Sellers saw that the pond was
frozen over, and in the center was an old goose
with its head under the ice. The other birds

The Memphis TraredY.

Extraordinary murders are followed now
by extraordinary trials, since the legal,
medical, psychological and social sciences
have widened SO vastly the scope of testi-
mony to be taken before all reasonable
doubts" cease to exist.
In view Of this fact, the forthcoming trial
Of Miss Mitchell for the murder of Mss
Ward at Memphis will be a most interesting
one. Aside from the sensational features
of the case, it will open up problem in
mind study which the experts may be ex-
pected to probe deep.
After the unfortunate affair, Miss
Mitchell II quoted as having said: II killed
Freda because loved her l would rather
she were dead than separated from me
living" There was jealousy at the bottom
OF it; but not the jealousy that is the appo-
site to normal love, because the love itself
was abnormal. The tragedy indicates the
existence between these two young girls of
a social relation which at least one regarded
as an affinity such as may prevail between
the sexes, and desired to follow it to the
common sequence
There is a moral in the story and the
tragedy which IL may not be easy to read.
II it could be reached it would tell how to
prevent those violent attachments which
frequently spring up between young girls
just on the threshold of womanhood, and
sometimes result in mental arrangement,
and at other times in crime, upon seuara-
tion. The vast majority Of these school
girl attachments, formed during that
peculiar period of transition from girl to
woman, are violent, pure, sincere and
short-lived; but occasionally the tragic
ending results. That these attachments
should be prevented from becoming 80
violent as to divert girls thoughts from
channels leading to a healthy mental de-
velopment cannot be doubted, but by what
means?
Miss Mitchelrs love for Miss Ward ap-
pears to have been of the nature outlined
above. Her mind had become warped, ab-
normal, feverish. She loved "Freda," )" and
the thought Of separation maddened her In
the delirium she killed her. Was that
