An Historic Spot.

Beauchamp tower, which is part of tho
great fortress known as the Tower, in
London, stands on the west side of the
Green, a bowlder paved quadrangle, in
closed by the massive gray Notifications.
A few trees rise among the powders. The
SUI shines on the clean stone flooring of
the Green, and the clouds are driven
across the blue sky overhead.
In the center a small space is rallied in.
Here Anne Boleyn, Catharine Howard,
Lady Jane Grey and Thomas Cromwell,
earl of Essex, were %beheaded, victims to
the passions of a cruel age. Here, too, the
aged Countess of Salisbury, condemned to
death, refused to lay her head on the
block, declaring that sit was not the head
of a traitor" and compelled the execution
er to kill her standing.
One wonders if, as these men and women
gazed for the last time at the gray walls
around them and the clouds driven across
the blue sky, they saw the justice of God
above the power of man.
The narrow windows of Beauchamp
tower look down on this blood stained
space. 1t was a prison to which the Tudor
kings and queens condemned troublesome
people who differed from them in opinion,
in politics or religion. The walls were COW
cred with inscriptions carved by these cap
tives during long, lonely years. Lady Jane
Grey's husband, Dudley, here cut her
name, lane.
Two lads of royal blood who fell under
Elizabeth's displeasure and were confined
here for life have written, "He who sows
in tears shall reap in joy."-Youth's Com
panion.

E. F. Howe and F. A. Carley. The
democratic convention followed the in
dependent convention on Tuesday. It
named Honorable George Lutz for state
senator, endorsed Howe, independent
nominee for the house, and nominated
al the other member D. E. Hughes. For
sheriff T. q. Barrett was named, for au-
ditor Chas. A. Klaus, and for states at
torney M. Conklin. These nominees
will probably be endorsed by the inde-
pendents. The republican convention
was held Wednesday. Honorable
Bailey Fuller was undoubtedly nomi-
mated for the senate. It is conceded
that against such a popular democrat as
Mr.. Lutz, and because of the fusion Mr..
Fuller will have a close run The re-
publicans are more active than usual,
however, and propose to show the state
this year that Stutsman may be put
down in the reliable republican column.

Shortening Up Railroad Lines.

I suppose that most people who travel
think we travel over the same line, if we
are in the employ of one company, all the
time, that was originally laid down. That
is, they think that when a railroad is built
it never changes its u Most of the
trunk lines are built in q hurry in this.
country. After they have been in opera
ton for awhile the company begins to
figure on how they can make better time.
This is not done altogether by increasing
the speed, as some may suppose, but by
what we call shortening up the line. Take
this division on which I am now running,
for example. Ihave been here ever since
the road was in operation and the road has
been shortened on my u nearly eight
miles. and it has been shortened between
Chicago and st. Joe, Mo-, forty miles. The
public don't know it. They think we are
running faster than we used to. We are
making q little better time than we did,
but the principal reason why we are is be-
cause we have shortened the line.-An En-
gineer in Chicago Tribune.

Upset His Mind.

Several men were in the drug store and
were relating incidents wherein druggists
had sold poison by mistake. One of them
dwelt at length upon the mysterious force
that seemed to impel men to do just the
thing they fully intend not to do. It was
this great SENSE of caution on the part Of
druggists that led them to administer poi
son when they least intended to do 80. The
young drug clerk behind the counter was
listening to the conversation when a lady
entered the store and asked to purchase
some salts. A cloud of uncertainty, born
of the stories he had listened to, seemed to
be over the clerks mind as he filled the
prescription. The lady had been gone but
a few minutes when something startling
dawned on the clerks mind.
"Gentlemen, watch this store for me till
I return" he said, as he dashed out of the
door and up the street. They were sure
something serious had occurred. Presently
the clerk returned, his hands trembling
and perspiratlon on his brow.
"Gentlemen," he said, in explanation Of
his absence, that lady who called wished
to purchase salts, but your poisoning
stories so upset me that"-
"You sold her sugar of lead" said two
men in the same breath.
mo, I sold her salts, but I got to think
ing about it and thought I had made q
mistake, and not till I had overtaken her
and examined the drug was I convinced
that I had not. "-Chicago Times.

The Grand Forks Herald, the Fargo
Forum, the jamestown Alert and other
alleged republican papers may deserve
criticism, but the failure to publish the
republican ticket at the head of the edi.
torial page in n or a dozen issues-or
at all for that matter is not sufficient
ground for complaint. The running of
the ticket in a certain column is a
custom-a custom rapidly growing into
disrepute and-abandoned by most met
ropolitan newspapers. It would be a
weak paper, indeed, the politics of which
could only be determined by a glance at
an array Ct certain of candidates
for Office. The ticket is run, not to de-
termine a newspapers political prefer
ence, but as a sort of directory for
reference during campaign.

Republican Platform of North Dakota.

republican flatfOrm OF North DakOCa.
We, the republicans of North Dakota in con-
vention assembled, reafirm our belief in the
principles as laid down in the republican ma
tional platform adopted at Minneapolis, and hail
with delight the practical results of protection
and reciprocity as inaugurated and put in prac-
tice by the party of progress.
We heartily approve of the administration and
favor the reelection of Benjamin Harrison as
president of the United States, and especially do
we recommend the president to the people as
one who has largely retrieved the disaster
brought upon Us by the action of Grover Cleve-
lands land commissioner. W. A. J. Sparks.
whose administration was 80 oppressive to our
ioneer settlers.
We also bespeak for Mr.. Harrison the consid-
GRAFTON and support of the old soldiers, who were
80 grossly insulted by Grover Cleveland in his
message and by his repeated vetoing of pension
bills.
The course of our congressman, Hon. NJ.
N. Jot nson, has been worthy of the highest e.
TEEN, in which he has ever been held by the peo-
pie of North Dakota, and we cordially endorse
his official actions in the present congress.
We point with pride to the record made by the
present state administration which has been
characterized by ability and economy; and by the
reelection of Andrew II. Burke for governor,
and the success of our state ticket, we will have
an assurance of a continuation of everything
that tends to good government, the Observance of
the constitution and the enforcement of all laws
OF our state.
We consider it of vital importance that a pro-
per exhibit of the products and resources of
North Dakota should be made at the Columbian
worlds exposition and earnestly recommend
that our state make the necessary appropriation
to assure the same.

The following excellent advice is from
the Ward County Reporter: Several
so-called republican papers of the state
are already finding fault with the state
ticket. It is sheer folly for an editor
who claims to edit a republican sheet to
oppose the present ticket, and such a
course Of action will only court defeat in
November. Let these who are proclaim

son will quickly bring them back to
