Our dispatches yesterday reported that
Cleveland thinks II wise to go slow until
1t could be satisfactorily shown just why
there was such an unforeseen iop."
This confession that the Democratic
victory was in its extent unexpected is
not surprising. Or course, II the Demo-
cratic national committee had felt any
real confidence In their ability TO carry
Illinois, Indians and Wisconsin they
would not ut the last moment have re-
sumed the interrupted negotiations with
the Peoples party at the West A COM
rlete surrender was made in ten states OF
the anti-free silver policy advocated by the
Democracy OF the East and subscribed to
by Grover Cleveland in his letter OF &C
ceptalce. In Oregon the Democratic
electoral ticket was withdrawn in face of
local protest and the refusal OF two
Democratic electors TO withdraw. and
later the national committee directed
the Democratic voters in Oregon 70 cas-!
their votes for Weaver. In Colorado the
Democratic electors were Withdrawn IN
der orders frnm New York. In Kansas q
like surrender wss made earlier and hon.
est money Democrats had no choice but
between Weaver and Harrison. In Mime
sofa four Democratic electors were
withdrawn. In Idaho. Montana, Nevada,
Wyoming, Nebraska and the two Dskotas

Gratis, their candidates having all been
withdrawn.
OF course. this humi!iating surrender to
the Peoples party could not have been
completed st the last moment if the
Democratic managers had not the week

of the party lay in throwing the election

The present prospect 10 that the German
army bill will be defeate,- in the reichstag.
This army bill means q very large addi-
tion to the number Of conscripts called
under the colors every year and conse-
quent increase of $15.0Oo.0 900 in the an
nual expenditure for military purposes,
together with q preliminary outlay Of
$50, 600, 600, rendered inevitable by the
contemplated expansion of the army on q
peace footing. These additional expend-
itures are to be met by increasing the
present customs duties and internal rev.
= enue taxes on tobacco.
This army bill was opposed In the
federal senate by the representatives Of
Bavaria and the South German states. On
the Path inst. it comes before the
reichstag, which has 397 members.
Chancellor Caprivi cannot possibly pass
the bill without the help of the
Clerical or Catholic party of Germany.
The South German wing of the Clericals is
opposed to the bill, and the pope has been
appealed to in vain to interpose and direct
South German Catholics to vote for the
bill, but the pope is not disposed to assist
in enlarging the resources of the triple
alliance, which has hitherto shown itself
as hostile to the papacy as it is to France.
The pope knows that his former inter
ference in behalf Of Bismarck's military
measures won him no support from the
German emperor; he knows that so long
as the Italian kingdom remains party to
the triple alliance it will be sustained in
what faithful Catholics regard as the OPP
preston Of the holy see. The pope seeks
to recover the independence of the papacy
he is hopeless of aid from Germany or Aus.
tria. so he pays court to Russia and to
France. The pope recognizes in Russia
the intimate friend and ally of France, and
sees In such coalition the only possible
counterpoise to the triple alliance, and
consequently. the only source Of succor tc
which the papacy may turn.
The pope has turned the support OF the
French Catholics over to the republic, and
today he controls the fate Of the German
army bill, which depends upon the vote o
Catholic members of the reichstag from
South Germany. Chancellor Caprivi says
that the fate of Germany depends on tn,
passage of this bill. If the pope defeats i
by his influence it will be clear that thu
loss of his temporal dominions has moi
paraIy zed the political strength and reach
of the arm of the Vatican.

Sioux City J0urnal:-Because farmers
a., leaving Illinois to settle in western
Iowa does not prove that Illinois is fail
ing as an agricultural section. Improves
exactly the contrary. 1t proves extra,
ordinary prosperity. Illinois farmers
who acquired land at very low figures
find that it has risen in value till 1t is
worth $50, 500 or more per acre. The
rise in the value alone has made these
farmers we'll to do. Now they can sell
at high figures, come to western Iowa,
and get as good land for one-third or
one-fourth the price for which they sold.
They know that there will be in western
Iowa the same rise Of land-yalue which
there has been in Illinois, only the for
mel is almost sure to be vastly nurc
rapid than the latter. Land in western
Iowa that a now be had for 500 per
acre will go to $40 and $50 and more
within a few years. The Illinois farm
ers are coming here to take advantage of
this situation, They have had a good
thing in Illinois and they see a chance
to get a good thing in western Iowa.
Not only are they aiming to get advan-
tage of the rise OF land values, but they
expect in the meantime to make fair
profits from the cultivation Of a soil
which they see to be as rich and as pro-
ductive as that of Illinois itself, to raise
as good grass, corn and other
grain, and as much of it. These
expectations will be realized. They are
leaving a good, prosperous farming
country, and they are coming to a good
prosperous country. And what is occur
ring as between Iowa and Illinois will
occur as between Iowa and the younger
states to the west, Nebraska and South
Dakota. Indeed, during the last ten
years there has been q movement Of
emigration from Iowa, not because
farmers were losing money nor because
Iowa lands are dep~reciating in value,
but because cheaper lands are to be found
further west.

When Will the Lakes FIJI?
There is abundant evidence at hand
that Red Lake and White Lake have been
filled to the b:im and gone dry repeated
ly. but at just what periods no mi seems
to know. The Indians say that years
and years ago the Indians then located
near Yankton used to come up to what
is now Brule county to hunt buffalo
when Red Lake was full Of water, as the
hunting was always better then. On the
government maps appear both Of these
lakes, and as the original survey from
which they we're made was made in the
sixties it proves that the lakes were full
then of water. or nearly 30. We know
that in 1880 both were as dry as the up
land prairie. In conversation with H.
8, Dams, a few days since, he said that
they began to fill the last time from a
very heavy rain on the 28th Of August
1880. He said that the heavy rain Of
last June was nothing in comparison to
it. Then followed other good rains dur
ing the next two months and two or
three feet OF snow on the level during
tho winter. When spring came the lakes
were full to the brim. Two years later,
even, they we're full. as we'll as every low
place in the country. 1t is clearly evil
dent that before they will be full again
very heavy fall rains will have to take
place and q heavy fall of snow during
the winter following. It has now been
twelve years since the lakes became
Allied and the best evidence is at hand
that twelve years is about as long a time
as ever has elapsed from one extremely
wet fall to another.

The Successful Newspaper.
Apropos of this being the GRAPHIc's
tenth birthday, the following summary
of what constitutes the proper manage
ment of u successful country newspaper,
written by Editor Axling Of the Devils
Lake IN. D) Banner, is herewith submit
ted as giving in part an explanation Of
the GRAPHIC's success where Others hay Q
gone down:
I'm looking over the newspaper direct
DRY it will be seen that of the 1890 or
more papers published in this country
and Canada, fully $4,000, or nearly
three-fourths, constitute the weeklies.
To this class belong nearly all the So
called country papers" published. A
comparatively small number of these
papers are probably genuine gold mines
to their publishers, and in nearly all
cases-barring those having a constant
run Of "fat takes" In the form of legal
printing-these papers have become
such through the hustling and rigid bus
mess abilities of the men who are at the
head as publishers, proprietors or editors.
There has been no begging or cajoling
for patronage on their part, but on the
other hand they have set down business
rules for transaction Of all that pertains
to their respective concerne, and haze
conscient;ously stood by these rules.
They have considered their newspapers
like 80 much merchandise, and offered
them for sale at what they were worth.
Their patrons were not asked in a beg
ging tone to drop in and "help the poor
printer to the extent of six months
subscription" hut business like, were
told they could pay their money and get
their share-the editors would then make
a readable paper. This does not imply
that they would throw in a few stale
locals, with a couple or so of scissors
editorials, or, what is more true, none at
all, then fill out the remaining space in
the paper with all the dead ads. still
standing in the Office, and a column or
two OF plate matter of last years impor-
tation. And when all this has been
done go down on their knees and implore
the kind people to help the poor printer!
Such a paper Is more Of a charity object
for n man than ANYTHING else. What

ness, %transacting all their business on
strictly business principles, and giving
to the people such a paper that it was
next to impossible for them to decide
to withdraw their support. In short
they knew their business-were practi-
cal printers and could write a page OF

Such men command the attention Of the
community, and their opinions are
sought after. Their papers are read
and paid for. The readers Of such q

will be something in it worth reading,

l. H. Wolch, of Edgerton, Chas. Mix,
has gone back to Michigan for more
French Coach stations. He brought
three from there several weeks ago and
sold them alone to E. W. Cleveland, Of
Buffalo county. The French Coach
stallion is going to gain in popular favor
rapidly. Breeders who have been trying
to raise t%rotters from cold-blood mares
will soone or later wake up to the fact
that not n colt in three hundred, bred
from trotting stock, dam as we'll MS sire
trotting-bred, ever shows three minutes
Then how can they hope to raise trot,
tiers from cold blood dams, no matter
what the sire. But, having fine mares
they will want something aside from one
of the draft breeds, and the French
Coach will just fill the bill.
