Quoting the item from The DAILY
LEADER which gave Chas. B. Kennedy's
discouraging statement in regard to the
abandonment OF the Sioux City, Madison
and Northern, the Sioux Falls Argus
Leader offers the following comment:
II Mr.. Kennedy's fears are well
grounded the Argus-Leader sympathiZes
with our northern neighbor in her DIS
appointment. But why not turn the
energy which was back OF the other pro-
ject into a joint effort with Sioux Falls
TO extend the Burlington or the Illinois
Central to the Chautauqua city? The
former has signifed a willingness to en-
certain propositions. The latter has
recently canvassed the Question. Sioux
Falls is anxious for the line and is ready
to take hold OF it with her old time en-.
thusiasm. Will Madison help? The ex'
tension of either of these lines would
give her close connections with Chicago
Sioux City and Sioux Falls, would re
duce her freight rates and would make
her beautiful lakes accessible to thu
out bern part of the state.

Discouraging News From overfowed
Districts Along the Mississippi
MEMPHIS, May 19.-The news from
the overlowed districts in Arkansas

aging character. Specials from points
from the west side of the river below

of affairs. The water which has been
flowing around the head of the levee
system above Ozark has inundated the
Francis basin, the farmers being COM
PEELED to abandon all hope of raising a
cotton crop. Almost every foot of land
in Chicot county, Ark, 200 miles below
Memphis, has been flooded by water
from the Lakeport. Brooks Mill and
Grand Lake No attempt

tion this season. The Grand Lake

Public.

WASHINGTON, May 19.-lt is now gen.
orally conceded that Mr.. Crisp will be
reelected speaker. He dined with the
president Thursday, and all seeming
differences were adjusted, not only as
to legislation but as to the makeup of
committees. Wilson of West Virginia
is to be chairman of the ways and means,
and McMillin of Tennessee next to
Crisp on the committee of rules, thus
making him Democratic leader Of the
floor. McMillin will also go on the
ways and means. Holman and Springer
are both to be turned down, and the
question Is how can it be done without
provoking ill-feeling. Holman will
probably be given the public lands com
mittee. Springer's betrh has not been
fixed upon. Sayers of Texas is to sue
coed Holman on appropriations. Bank.
ing. an important committee under the
present conditions, is to go to IsAdore
Raynor, OF Baltimore, il Isadore's
friends can manage to take it from
Bacon, of New York, who had 1t last
session. McCreary, of Kentucky, i.
likely to get Minister Blounts place al

also an aspirant. Congressman Hal

CIVIL SERVICE CHANGE.

President Cleveland Alleged to Favor
q Radical Revolution.
NEW YORK, May 19.-On the editorial
page, in double-leaded types, The Sun
prints the following dispatch from its
Washington correspondent: THAT new
routings are completed, preliminary to
q complete reorganization of the work
ing force of the departments, the
treasury especially, seems more than
probable. This, 1t is believed, Ia
one why so few de-
partmental changes have been made.
Those that have been made are on a line
consistent with the new rules that ara
said to be preparing. Mr.. Cleveland. it
Ia said, contemplates a new extension OF
the civil service idea, little less than
the complete wiping out of the present
system and the substitution Of some
main features of the English system.
For this purpose legislation will b
needed, and yet considerable progress ID
possible under the present law"

INSTITUTE RESOLUTIONS.

The following resolutions were
adopted by unanimous vote of the
students of the Normal Institute at
the close of the term last Thursday:
WHEREAS, one of the most success
full and profitable Institutes that has
been held in Allen county is drawing
to close, and
WHEREAS, We, the teachers consti-
tuting the same, believing that the un-
paralelled success of our present ses-
sion is due to the thoughtful planning
and foresight of our Superintendent,
together with the.untiring energy of
our efficient faculty, take pleasure in
publicly expressing our highest ap-
probation of their faithful efforts and
do adopt the following resolutions:
ResOtUed, First, That we extend
to our worthy superintendent, Mr..
Jones, OHr thanks for his energy i'm Sc
curing for us an entertaining and in
structive course of lectures which has
been heartily appreciated. And fur
thermOre that the change of the week
ly vacation day from Saturday to
Monday has met with our entire ap-
prOyal. Second, That we are equally
grateful to our conductor, Prof. Stew
ensOn for the deep interest which he
has manifested in the progress of the
Institute as whole and in the welfare
and advancement of each of us indi-
vidually. We wish him unlimited
success i'm his work at the State Nor
NAL School and bid him goodby with
an earnest request for his services i'm
the same capacity in 1894. Third,
That in Prof. Estey we recognize
model teacher and do unanimously

ceived i'm the class room of Miss Nit

lily filled the place of Prof. Gibbons.

a quarter or half minute ofperfunctory

quarter or half minute Ofperfunctory
applause. But there was only a little
shutting of the feet when the candi-
dates came out to acknowledge their
nomination. There was no speech
making at all. And that was very
wise considering that the convention
was brought together by a sort of
grab-all call, and the ticket nominal
ed is expected to gather in votes from
the most discordant and wide-sunder-
ed elements. There wasn'ta thimble-
full of enthusiasm in the convention
from beginning to end. And it never
adjourned. When it got done it just
quit, without any motion or formality
of any kind.
So far as we know the men nOmin-
ated are reputable citizens. But with
the possible exception of John Bale,
who is widely known and is a pleas
ant, popular gentleman, we do not be.
lieve there is one of them who is
stronger than his party, while at least
two are distinctly weaker. 1t will
be an easy thing for the Republican
convention to nominate ticket, every
man on which will be better qualified
and more popular than his opponent.
And that is what it must do.
