The North Dakota Senator Pays His
Respects to Certain Newspapers.
DEVILS LAKE, N. D.. Oct. 11.-Sen-
ator Hansbrough has mailed two
column oren letter to North Dakota
and Twin City papers in reply to the
adverse criticism on his speech of Sept.
~ on the silver question. He claims
the demand for wheat has necessarily
increased with the increase of popula-
ton, and no perceptible advance in the
methods of production for the last 10
years, hence the decline in prices is & Gue
to other causes than the appreciation
of gold and insufficient gold per capita
for redemption purposes in the worlds
markets, in contrast to increased prices
for meats, butter and other products,
the prices of which are fixed in the
United States. He claims the marked
change in sentiment is due to the
declarations of Rothschild and Glad
stone that gold must be maintained as
the English standard. and that the
question is no longer international but
national. The senator pays his respects
to the Minneapolis Journal and st.
Paul Pioneer Press fer alleged incon-
sistencies on public questions, and cites
Blaine's speech in 1878 as the funda-
mental doctrine on bimetallism.

Argus-Leader: The Yankton Press
and Dakotan prints a long list of good
and sufficient reasons why the land Of
flee should not be removed from that
city to Mitchell. The most convincing
reason is that the expense for claimants
whose final proofs have not yet been
made would be materially and unjustly
increased.
It's of no particular Importance to
Mitchell whether the Yankvon land Of
flee is removed here or not, for the Corn
Belt city has got past the point of quar-
reling over little things; but in the in
terest of fairness the Yankton and Sioux
Falls papers should make note Of the
fact that, outside of Yankton county,
where there is no public land business,
the bulk of the business in the Yankton
district can be done to exactly as good
advantage in Mitchell. The counties
of Charles Mix, Douglas, Hutchinson
and Bon Homme already do large part
of their trading at this point, and it
would be no hardship for their people
to come here on land office business.
BY the way, what has changed the
views of the Yankton Press on this sub
lect, when few weeks since it acqul-
esced in the proposed consolidation and
gave as good reasons for the same as 1t
now advances in opposition?

RIOTS.
An Attempt to Enforce Cleanliness at
Hamburg Results In Loss of
Life.
A Health officer and Policeman
Pounded to Death by the Angry
Mob.
Company of Troops Necessary Be-
fore the Crowd Could Be Dis.
persed. ..

HAMBURG, Oct. 11.-Another fatal
riot occurred in st. PAUL., a suburb of
this city, growing out of the attemptof
the sanitary officers to enforce the reg
ulations for the prevention of the
spread of cholera. AS in the previous
riot, when a policeman was brutally
kicked and stamped to death, the scene
of the trouble was in one of the dis
tricts of the village inhabited entirely
by the poor ndignorant classes. When
the sanitary officers, accompanied by
police, attempted to put extraordinary
regulations in force, trouble at once re-
suited. The mob made a descent in
force. upon the police, stoning them
and using clubs. The policemen were
unable to quell the rioting. In fact,
they could make no attempt to do so,
being compelled to fight desperately to
protect themselves from
The Fury of the Rioters.
While some of the mob thus engaged
the police others devoted themselves to
furious onslaught upon the sanitary
officers. One of the latter was captured
by the mob. His comrades could make
no attempt to rescue him, as they had
all they could do to defend themselves.
The officer in the hands of the
mob was struck on the head with
large stone and knocked to the ground.
Then the mob jumped on him and
kicked him about the head and body
until life was extinct. In the mean
time the crowd had succeeded in
knocking down policeman, and he.
too, soon met with death, and the riot
ers, with fendish delight, kicked his
face until it was pulp. The fight was
waging desperately with the odds in
favor of the mob. when a detachment
of troops, who had been hastily des-
patched to the. scene. arrived. The
officer in command of the troops
ordered the mob to disperse, but they
paid no attention to the command and
continued their attack upon the police
men and sanitary officers. An order
was given for the troops to
fix bayonets. and when the gleam-
ing steel blades were fastened to
the muzzles of the rifles the
soldiers were ordered to charge the mob.
With bayonets lowered they moved
forward on the double quick, and the
rioters, seeing the bristling wall of steel
advancing upon them, dispersed in
short order.
