Cass s... 81 -AA sc, ~ssfs
In Aitkin, Beltrami and Cass the
regular delegations are undoubtedly for
Mr.. Kendall, while in Wadena the regu-
lars are for Searle. The break in Anoka
is due to the fact that Kendall formerly
resided there. In Wright county no in
st.actions were given beyond the unit
rule, and there seems to be feeling
there that the nomination of Duluth
man will in the future give Wright
county a chance for congressional
candidate. In case Judge Searle is
nominated this year, Duluth's turn
must come some time, and there are no
less than two gentlemen in Wright
county ready and willing to be sent to
congress in the future.
Altogether, it is pretty muddle, with
the probabilities in favor of prolonged
struggle that will give the citizens of
Duluth abundant opportunity to show
their friends from the back counties
what a magnificent city they have.

Sunday December llth.
EPISCOPAL CHURCH.


Rev. ". J, Smith preached IN the Fps
copal church Sunday from laaih 59:2,
But your iniquities have separated be-
tween you and your God, and your SINS
have bid his face from you that be Will
not hear"
He said this advent season brings De-
fore US the consideration OF the second
coming Of our Lord to Judge the quick
and the dead, but there is something very
solemn and serious to be considered,
which for most people must take place
before His coming, aud this Is death.
Another solemn and awful event which
will take place at His coming which is
the Judgment, and then there will be two
possible things for any human being that
is born into the world and these
things are Heaven and He'll. Were we
to consult our own feelings merely we
would think and talk only of the former,
and were it possible, would annihilate
both the idea and fact Of the latter. But
then there are Heaven and He'll, both
fixed facts, and both Of which we must
seriously consider. if we would gain the
one and escape the other. While there
are some good and holy men so occupied
with heavenly things. that the idea OF
hell seldom comes into their minds, yet
there are others who speak Of it so light
ly in ordinary conversation that it makes
no impression upon them, they do not
stop to consider what it means, while
Others vaInly try to persuade themselves
that after ali there is no such place as
hell, or that if there is, God Is too good
and mercifui to send US there.
Torment with some begins long way
this side Of the grave, with some 1t Is
pain, some disgrace, with some the
thought of having had spirit pure from
God, with high aspirations, and to be
conscious of having dulled its delcacy
and degraded its desire, This is the result
of sin, and let US remember that sin is
the transgression of Gods law and the
punishment which follows is not willing
ly inflicted by the great Judge of man.
kind, but it is the natural consequence OF
that transgreSsion. To illu strate, you
forbid your child to walk in the wet
grass and he goes and does 1t. The result
is he catches cold. That is the conse-
quence of his disobedience. Now, if in
addition to that you punish him, that is
the penalty of his sobedience; and so
when we violate Gods fixed laws and &C
contrary to his commandments. He car
no more prevent your suffering than you
can your child from catching cold, bL'
your child may be sorry for disobedience
and promise not to do the like again anC
you may withhold the penalty. So toe
if we truly repent Of our sins and resolve
with Gods help, that we will not commits
them again, then He too may withhold
the final penalty, but we must suffeI
the consequence of our disobedence.

Tho w. and w. Railroad Fax

The Supreme Court of the United
States has decided the suit involving
the right of the State to tax branch lines
of the Wilmington and Weldon railroad.
The Railroad Commission assessed III
1891 the MAN line of the Wilmington
& Weldon railroad from Weldon
to Halifax, and all the branch lines.
The county commissioners placed that
part of the road affected in Halifax coun
ty on the tax list. Sheriff Allsbrook de-
handed tina taxes and the railroad took
out an Injunction to prevent the collec>
ton of the taxes. The case was tried
before Judge Conner who decided il fav-
or the county. 1t was carried to the
State Supreme Court which affirmed the
decision of the lower court.
1t was carried to the United States
Supreme court, and decided in favor of
the county.
1t will bring about sll50 to the county
whether any back taxes are collected or
not.
The Raleigh correspondent to the
Richmond Dispatch Dec. 9th, said:
THE importance to the State of the
decision ofthe United States Supreme
Court in the case brought by Halifax
county TO test the legality of the Will
mington and Weldon railways exempt
ion from taxation is very great. The
Supreme Court of this State decided on
appeal that the branches were liza
BILE. The new decision makes $50
miles liable to taxation, with rolllng>
stock and real estate leaving only $50
miles still claiming exemption. TIE
State Supreme Court expressed an opin-
len that upon test case the main line
tl50 miles, would be found to be liable
also and that question will prob.
ably come up very soon.
BACK TAXES.
The declsian carried with it back taxes
for great many years. On that part O
the line from Halifax to Weldon these
are due for fifty years, on the division
from Rocky Mount to Tarboro' for thirty
years, and on branches from five to ten
years. The aggregate Of these back
taxes is estimated to approximate $780,
| 600 and will certainly be $3.50, 00n
These facts were asceI tanned by your
correspondent from thoroughly Informed
persons. "

Justice was done, then all went as merry
as a marriage bell until eleven, when the
gathering dispersed, carving with them
