CENSUS TAKER PORTER has figured out that on the whole the cost of doing the work will be about eleven cents for each person enumerated by him. What 1t woull be for each person omitted from enumeration would be a still more interesting computation. But on the whole it was certainly not worth taxing every enumerated person eleven cent for information that is not trustworthy.

No man who ever entered the senate was given mere cordial reception by his party colleagues than was Senator David B. Hill of New York, and no new member of that body ever received the d. ference whirh is accorded him by all of the senators. His intimacy with Seoator Gnrnnn has given that gentle man an uuurn ollnnahle boom for the prcsld, ntial nomiuutiOn. This is doubt less largely due 10 the feeling that any candidate supported by Senators llih and Guimqn would be difficult to de- feat in p democratic nnti"nal conven- tinn.
 MR BLAINE is again having q rocky time of it, between the attempt of the Chilians to wriggle out of making an apology to the United States and of the Harrison crowd to make his health a national bugabOo He is also having trouble with Mir Harrison and the 2abi- net over the question of granting the Mexican government the right to send troops into the United States after Garza, who is said to be backed by Boss Shepherd, of Washington notoriety, and other Americans. Mir Blaine alone opposes allowing Mexican troops to cross the border.

A Delusion.

Grand Forks special to Minneapolis
Tribune: Prohibition in North Dakota
is simply delusion and a snare, and is
used as trsde mark for the "blind pigs''
that flourish in every town and hamlet in
the state. Many towns that were entirely
free from saloons before prohibition went
into effect can now boast of two or three
secluded corners, familiarly known as
s'blind pigs" where liquor and beer is sold
with varigated impurity and dispatch.
Liquor agents travel their same old routes,
and are confidential enough to assert that
their business was never in a more pros
porous condition. They have remark
able "smooth" way of reaching customer:
Goods are shipped to the different places
billed to "E. H." the initials of the agent,
who furnishes the dealer with an order for
the same. By this method whiskeY and
beer Is supplied over the entire state by
wholesale and dealt out from mysterious
rooms and closets. Others are even bold
enough to continue the traffic over their
bars under the password of "long" and
ashort." The "long" is beer, the 'short"
liquor. So here, under prohibition sky,
and facing the laws, the "long" and "short"
flows freely.

A Very Good Story.
New York Tribune.

New York Tribune.
That is good story, which the Rev. DR.,
Rush, secretary of the Freedmen's aid
society of the methodist episcopal church,
tells to the annual conferences, before
which presents the claims of his society.
A young negro in the south had been con-
verted and at once wanted to preach. His
elder thought he was not fitted for the ina-
portant work; but he well-nigh staggered
them by relating vision, in which he had
plainly seen the letters &c. P. Co. which
could mean only. "Go preach Christ =
A white-haired negro preacher slowly arose
and told the ambitious young brother that,
while he had no doubt seen the letters in; a
vision, he had failed in the INTERPRETATIONS.
They probably meant: $50 pick cotton" !"
or SEQ plow corn" This settled the mat
ter. A preacher in the New York con-
ference, when the story was told few
days ago, remarked to friend sitting
near: Il wish we had men in our white
conferences sharp enough to explain away
as satisfactorily the arguments by which
our young incompetents try to convince
the committee that they have been called
to preach the gospel

Bismarck Tribune: At meeting of the
state board OF. university and school lands
on January goth, 1892, it was ordered that
the state auditor, state treasurer, county
auditors and county treasurers be in
structed to refund to the purchasers of
school lands any excess payment of the
purchase price of their respective tracts
made on account, of railroad right of eway
passing through such tracts, and that the
deduction be made hereafter for the
actual number of acres now contained IN
any railroad right of way across school
lands sold or to be- sold. 1t was also
ordered that the area of the right of way
for which deduction has been made or IS
to be made, over the respective tracts, and
the price per acre ut which such tracts
were sold, be certified to the secretary of
the board of university and school lands.

The Cooperstown Courier contains the
following, which may be of particular in
terest and benefit to farmers all over the
state: "Our farmers should be careful as
to what kind of wheat they seed next
spring and not SOW seed that has been
stacked. We are informed by reliable
farmers that wheat that has been stacked
all winter Is no good for seed. The theory
advanced is that too much sweating and
gases that are created while the wheat is
in the stack kills the germ. Of course the
wheat is just as good for flour as any other
wheat, but is not for seed. Farmers should
look this matter up before seeding time
as we rather fancy it will be too late after
the grain is seeded. Some of this wheat
will no doubt grow, but majority of it
will not"

Maj. ]. s. Murphy returned from Wash.
ington, D. c., last Saturday. While visit.
ing the national capital it seems that the
major took great interest in the local
affairs here in Washburn and secured the
appointment of j. T. Davis as postmaster
vice X. s. Ramsett resigned, and this, too
after Davis had withdrawn in favor OF
Laurence Casselman. There is brief his.
tory connected with this postofice affair
which we have not time this week to re-
late, but which may receive an airing later
on. Even this mention of it would not
have been made, had not Major Murphy
on his return here boasted of what he had
done in Washington. It was matter
that did not concern him, and he had no
right to meddle with it. If he gets his
fingers burned by putting them into what
he ought not, he must blame nobody but
himself for his foolishness. But what
makes it still worse on his part, is the fact
that this week he sent his clerk, q. T.
Lange, down here for the purpose of effect
ing sort of compromise, which, if it could
be accomplished, would result in creating
most bitter local fight. The Leader has
always had a friendly feeling toward Maj
Murphy, but in this matter we are "agin
him." teeth and toe-nall. We shall con-
tinue, as we have heretofore, to work for
the good of Washburn, as well as for the
county at large, and above all shall labor
to establish peace and harmony among
our people, and we don't want any meddle-
some interference from disturbing quar-
ters. So please keep off our toes.
