Floating Toward wealth.

Peter Brand of@Pierre, recently re-
ceived intelligence that a wealthy
aunt at Kansas City had died and left
him heir to $50, 600. He is, or rather
was, a poor man engaged at manual
labor trying To support a wife and
several small children.
He received notice to appear before
the probate court in Kansas City in
connection with the settlement OF
the estate, but was without the &C.
essary funds for transportation. Mr..
Brand constructed Il fiat boat and
with provisions for the trip launched
the frail craft OH the Missouri, deter
mining to make the journey by
water.
HI left Pierre in November in COM
| pany with another man, and was seer
by some government rip-rap men at a
| point above Florence recently.
Mr.. Brands friends and relatives
in Kansas City were Fortified wher
they learned of his hazardous under
taking. The Missouri river in 1T
normal condition is regarded as per

around for some power that can
easily and quickly do the things that
legislation has failed in doing.
There is no longer any hope from
legislation for redress for the wrongs
of ages; let us to hope against
hope and get new leaders.
John Wesley was able in his day to
see that legislation was a failure as a
public panacea and hence said:
Give me one hundred men who fear
nothing but God, hate nothing but
sin, and are determined to know
nothing among men but Christ and
Him Crucifled, and / will set the
world on fire." Why not try this
proposed remedy for diseases of
"Uncle Sam which legislation has
tried, but in vain, to cure.
Col. Elliot F. Shepard, editor of
the Mail and Express of New York
City, said last Fourth OF July: "We
could pick out two dozen editors in
this country who, if they would
agree to any question of public policy,
could and would induce the county to
adopt that policy, no matter what
it might be-" A wise suggestion
from a wise man: why not try it?
Why not give up working Legislatures
to pass laws that will never be
enforced, and work for a newspaper
syndicate to work against the
wrongs of our land. The
press is mightier than congress.
George Elliot declares custom is
stronger than law among the
Germans" Is not this tune of all
nations as well as Germans. For my
part / think legislation ought to
give UP most of her assumed powers,
and take up her rightful but
neglected duties.
In the time Of Henry VII
Parliament passed a law which
declared that on and after that date
pins should not be sold for more
rs, sd per Thousand.
l firmly believe congress should
find out those articles of every day
life which corporations today are
oyer-charging for and limit them to
a reasonable profit. But or the
other hand the limitation and more
just distribution of wealth, and the
use and abnse OF liquor, ought not to
be handled by legislation, but by
more puissant powers. Sturgeon
once prayed that parliament might
be permitted "to do as little harm as
possible" 1t is soon time for the
of state and national
legislatures. Let all Americans so
pray for their legislative bodies.

Dearth of Garden Truca.

Vcgctarians have a hard winter
before them, Investigations today
show that cabbage, potatoes, apples,
turnips, parsnips, carrots. bcets and
onions are selling now at from double
to thrice the prices of a year ago, and
the chances are that the values will
be advanced several hundred per cent
before the middle OF the winter. The
kitchen garden industry in the couns
try tributary to Chicago has been
almost a complete failure this year.
Not only there, but all over the
United States and in some parts of
Canada, the same conditions prevail.
There seems to be no source whence
the deficit in the vegetable crop can
be filed except by importation from
Europe, and vegetables obtained thus
would be so costly as to preclude
their use by persons OF moderate
means. The direct cause OF the veg

NORTH DAKOTA.


The North Dakota Milling COM
pany, consolidated, has commenced
operations with headquarters in
| Grand Forks. The company has
been capitalized at 81, 250,000 and
now includes nineteen of the leading
Touring mills in the state.
The body of Maurice Olson, ayoung
printer of Fargo was found dead on
the morning of the 10Th inst, resting
against a tree with a revolver by his
side. Everything indicated that it
was a case Of suicide. Olson was an
employee of the Argus and had been
assisting in the makeup there for six
years past. His people have all
removed from Fargo, his sister being
in Helena and an uncle in Pierre.
The boy vas about twenty years old,
had a good bank account and was
a quiet, well-behayed fellow, and no
cause has yet been discovered as to
why he should have taken his own
life.
The commission to codify the laws
of the state and territory of Dakota
is in session at Bismarck, revising its
work for the state printer. The
report to the legislature will make
about 800 pages, without containing
any of the laws. This report will be
considered by the legislature, and
then the commission will take up the
laws passed at the coming session of
the legislature, and have two years
more in which to complete the work.
The work of the commission extends
back to the territorial laws of 1873,
and will be completed by the first of
January. 1t is to include those
passed by the various legislatures
down to the special session Of last
summer.

ua...... neal IN wedding.

Electioa betting has resulted in
marriages in some places, but 1T broke
up very badly a wedding which had
been set for Thanksgiving at Chata-
nooga. John Critzer, superintendent
of the Southern Malleable Iron COM
pany's works, and Miss Emma Crosby
were the prospective bride and groom
and society people who had been look
ing forward with great anticipations
are now in disappointmentand gloom.
Critzer bet all he had on Harrison's
election. and, having lost, took TO
drinking heavily. His brother went
to Miss Crosby the day before the
wedding was to occur and told her
what Critzer lad done, and that the
company had discharged him. There
upon the young lady wrote Critzer the
following note: Il can't marry you
now. Don't ask questions. Don't
come to see me-" Then she took the
noon train for Atlanta. Thus has
the mania of election betting ruined
a prosperous young mar and broken
up a most suspicious wedding.

WRITING FOR MONEY.
In a General Way 1t Is Not a ProIiiabl,
IknsinaSs

IN " '"y 49,
Business.
Several of our leading authors are
credited with fabulous incomes,
which, to theft infinite regret, they
4 anot receive. Mark Twain is rich,
but he has made the greater part of
his fortune as a publisher and not as
an author. Fanny f1odgson p&Inett
and William Dean Howells earn per-
haps $4,000 a year, and they are the
largest money makers of their profess
sion. Bret Hartc earns between
IS, 900 and Sl2 600 a year. Among the
other American authors who earn
more than 5000 a year are Frank r.
Stockton, Marion Crawford, Edgar
Saltus, Captain Charles King, Henry
James, Sara Orne Jewett and Julian
Hawthorne.
The rank and file are quite content
if they IAN make s. 900 a year. The
best paid American author is a man
who is practically unknown in the
literary world. His name is j. w.
Buel, and he is a maker of what are
known as subscription books"-that
is, books which are sold on the sub
scriptIon plan. or the fourteen books
he has written there have been cir
culated in the aggregate 2,5o0,0 900
copies. His royalties in 1889 exceeded
$50. 900.
There Is no calling which offers
quicker returns to a bright young
man than journalism, but its great
prizes are few aud far between, and
the newspaper worker at the end Of
ten or twenty years generally finds
himself about where lie started from.
There are today in New York 1000
newspaper workers who average 50 a
week, but there are less than two
score who earn more than 800 in the
same period. John A. Cockeriil,
while managing editor OF the World,
was paid $751; 0 a year, and George
w. Turner received $40, 900 as messen'
ger of the same paper. William G
Rick is paid the annual salary OF
$4,000 by the Herald, and George III,
Hepworth, Mr.. Benefits chief edi
torial writer, receives $4,000 a year
'Bill" Nye earns probaoly $4,000 a
year, but a portion OF this comes t.
him from his lecture tours. Blackley
Hall, Julian Ralph, John p. Bibcoci
and other well known special writer
earn from 800 to $50 a week. May
w. Hazeltine is paid $50 a week 70

A U BUNCOED.
Robert Clayton, Of Dubuque, Goes to Chi
cago Fresh Enough for Fodder.

Robert Clayton, of Dubuque, Goes to Chi
cage Fresh Enough for Fodder.
There was a young man at the Pal
mer house last week who had never
been out in the wide, wide world
alone before, and he wishes now that
he had never had this experience.
His name is Robert J. Clayton and
his home is in Dubuque, Iowa. He
came to Chicago with some money in
his pocket, and inside of twenty-four
hours tclegraphed his mamma tosend
him some to come home On. His tel
egram TO his mother IA lot explain
atory in the least. He simply said:
In the most lacOnic manner possible:
money all gone; want to come
home"
He is going back to the fair next
year, but he thought the city would
be so crowded then, and that he would
have to pay so much attention to the
fair itself that he could not do justice
to the city's varied attractions. So
he concluded to see Chicago before
the rush began. He rs young and in
-expcrienced, and like many of his
age, only the city after nighttime
had any attraction for him. He
wanted to see what metropolitan life
was after dark. He didn't want to
be very bad himself; he only wanted
to see where the bad was and what it
was. Therefore, he made up his
mind to invade the toughest places
within the limits. Perhaps lie had
budding aspirations to shine as a
novelist or moral reformer, and for
that reason desired to make a per-
sonar inspection Of the slums.
AS he approached the city on the
train he made the acquaintance Of a
nleasa .t Young gentleman with whom
he became confdsrrsial.
II know Chicago by heafSsald
this pleasant fellow, land | will beNf
only too happy to show you around.
Where are you going to stop"
"At the Palmer"
"Is that so? Why, that's where /
always stop. Say, / tell you, we will
get a room together, and then when ]
get through with my customers we
will go out and see something" Ac-
cordingly, the young Iowan regis
tered himself and his friend, and
they were assigned a room. lie put
in the day walking about, and the
new-found friend vas away, presum-
ably, with his customers. After sup
per they prepared to go out. Just as
they were starting the pleasant
young man said to his protege, taking
some money from his pocket: "Chi-
cago is a tough place. We had better
take all the money except the $40 or
sl2 We want to spend and have ii
locked up in the safe" The protege
pulled his roll of sl60 from his pocket
and gave it. to his friend, who depos-
tied it in the safe and received a check
for it. Then they went out. While
the young man was being entertained
most charmingly his friend slipped
out, went back to the hotel, presented
the check for the money, obtained it
and left. Later in the night the
Iowan managed to again locate the
| Palmer, but his friend and his cash
we're gone; hence his telegram to
mamma.
