A GLOOMY OUTLOOK.

j. A. Plummer. the leading attorney
OF Elko county, a bright young man
and one who ia a credit and a desir-
able citizen to any community in
which he may reside, accompanied
with his'wife and family and worldly
goods, stopped Owe here yesterday

Plummer without experiencing sim

ABOUT TWO DUKES.
One is Promoted and the Other Gets
up an Unpleasantness.

Hanover Is Now Part of Prussia and
the Duke of Cumberland Valves His
Claims After a Protest-The Scotch
Duke of Argyle's Advancement.
The duke business, as Artemus Ward
would say, has been badly overdone for
come years, which was but a natural re-
suit of the rapid changes in the social
structure. Dukes and lords ceased to
have the old feudal privileges and to be
the natural leaders and hereditary mag
istrates Of their little domains before they
had learned how to be industrial enter
prisers, scholars, inventors and other
wise leaders in the modern system. But
they have made the turn successfully,
and many of them are now eminent IN
art, science, literature and manufac-
lures.
And it is this which made the recent
performance of the Duke of Cumber-
land so startling. He first declared that
he was still king Of Hanover and would
not accept the Guelph fund, so called,
in lieu of his royal rights, because he
was satisfied that Emperor William
would soon run the whole Germanlc
system to the demnition bowwows, as
they say at Harvard, and that when the
breakup came Hanover would again be
kingdom and he, Ernest Augustus
William Adolphus George Frederick,
would be king thereof as bis father was.
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1892-04-09

After worrying the diplomats very
much he changed his mind and consent
ed to take the money and agree never to
try to be king. When Hanover was an
nexed to Prussia, in 1866. King George
was bulldozed into accepting a settle
ment, but when Bismarck unfolded his
entire policy King George refused the
settlement Then Prussia, that is to say
Bismarck, took all his property and rev.
enues and fought him with the income.
The imperial landtag refused to sanction
this robbery and something had to be
done.
The income has been devoted to subsi-
dizing journals and public men to create
an opinion. Finally the present En-
peror William consented to revoke the
sequestration, and the Duke of Cumber-
land now agrees to accept the 60,000,00O
silver marks, present valuation of his
fathers claim, and surrenders all
claims to the crown Of Hanover.
The origin of an English dukes right
to German throne is peculiar. James
l of England had daughter who mar
ried German prince, and her daughter.
Sophia, married the elector of Hanover;
so when Queen Anne died childless,
Aug. 1, 1714, and there were no heirs in
the English branch, the right to the
crown belonged to the Oldest son Of that
Sophia, and SO he became George I of
England. This made an awkward union
between the electorate and the kingdom,
and involved England in various wars.
The crown of Hanover, however, was
limited to the male line; SO when Vic
toria became queen her uncle Ernest
Augustus became king of Hanover, the
English people rejoicing greatly at the
separation and even more at the absence
of the hated Ernest, though he and his
heirs remained dukes of Cumberland in
England. The son of Ernest Augustus
was blind George, and with him ended
the Hanoverian kingdom.

The nrigrations of the nemming.

In Norway and Sweden a curious mi.
grafton takes place, the irregular migra.
tion of the lemming. There is no tell
ing where this strange animal will be.
gin its march southwark through Nor
way and Sweden in search of food. The
interval between one migration and the
next is seldom less than seven years or,
as in one instance, more than seventeen
years.
The lemming is a species of rodent
and resembles in some ways our COM
mon water rat. Once started, these
strange creatures press on in straight
line. There is no checking their march.
If a wall or house is in their way they
will try to climbit rather than go around
it, and if they come to stack of corn
they will eat it and then go forward.
The jennings are good swimmers, ant
SO they do not mind rivers and pondsr
although they cannot keep afoat in
rough water.
The migration comes to a fatal finish
Taking direct course toward the south
west and southeast, the animals arrive
after awhile at the seashore. Still the
must press on, and the lemming migra-
tion ends for another seven years.. L.
