The Famous Cotton Plant Backs.

The history of cards in this country marks
many interesting periods Of the nations
growth. Old time players will remember
the famous cotton plant" backs, which,
as the name would imply. were mostly used
in the south, but which were known from
one end of the country to the other. One
Of the prettiest designs of this kind was a
competitor at the first of the Crystal Palace
exhibitions in London, way back in the
"ftties." and easily drew a prize over the
best of the British exhibits. The cards were
beautiful examples Of the photographers
art, and even with the marked improve
ments in methods and machinery that have
since been made have never been excelled.
A pack of these cards sold for $40 in gold
In those days.-New York Herald.

FOR HARBOR DEFENSE.
Successful Launching OF the Ram
katahdin, Intended to De-
stroy Cruisers.
The New Vessel Something Of a
Novelty in Naval Archi-
lecture.

BATH. Me-, Feb. 1.-The twin-screw
din was successfully launched here this
afternoon, IN the presence of 5000 peo-
pie. The day was cIoudless, the river
was clear of ice. and at the appointed
hour the props were knocked out
and the ponderous war vessel slid
into the water with grace and
ease that were remarkable. Miss Solely,
daughter OF Assistant Secretary of the
Navy Solely, performed the christening
ceremony. fine new vessel is built
upon the plans drawn by Rear Admiral
Ammen. and is something of novelty
in naval architecture. The principal
popularity consists of a number of
tanks which. when filled with air, give
her 4 convenient freeboard for coast
ing service, but when filled with water
depress herS0 that her turtle-back deck
is awash. She is intended purely as
weapon of offense against. an attacking
fleet, and her mission will be to sink
baltleships or cruisers. She will mount
no gun save few small ones of a rapid
fire nature intended to keep off torpedo
boats.
The dimensions are: Length over all,
Psi feet; on normal water line. $50 feet
2 inches; breadth, extreme, 43 feet
inches, and on the water line, Al feet
inches; totel depth from the base to the
crown of deck amidship, % feet 10
inches; normal draft Of water. Is feet;
displacement, 2,163 tons. The lower
portion of the full is dish-shaped up to
a sharp knuckle which runs all around
the vessel six inches below the normal
water line. Above this knuckle
the shape of the hull is
circular arc with radius amidShips of
thirty feet, rising from six inches below
to six feet above the normal water line.
This curved deck will be armor-plated
throughout, the thickness Of the armor
tapering from six Inches III the kHuckle
to two inches at the croYs ct the deck.
Above this deck when the ram is COM
pieted will rise oply a coming tower .
eighteen inches thick, smOkstack and
yentilator, the lower portions of which
will be protected by siXinches of armOr,
two light barbettes, within which the
runs will be mounted, and skid beams
carrying four boats.
The propelling machinery will con-

our vast forests Of pine. to our mex
haustible beds of mineral ores, TO our
innumerable unused water powers, and
to our great bodies of hard and soft
woods, the greater part OF which IS to-
day as useless as the sands of Sahara.
1t is sometimes urged that we do not
want more people here to compete with
those who are now here. That we do
not want more wheat raiserS, corn
growers, stock raiserS, manufacturers,
storekeepers and laboring men to COM
pete with those already engaged in these
various industries. 1t is astonishing
that any Intelligent person should put
forth such an argument. or any other
Intelligent being be found to give ear
and credence to such absurd PROPOSE
tons.
AS above stated, the overpus of peo-
pie in the densely populated places are
bound to 90 somewhere, and they are
going III vast numbers all the time. LII
they raise wheat ia Nebraska, Kansas,
Oregon. Washington, or even III the
Argentine Republic, they will compete
with the Minnesota wheat raiser just as
much as though they were raising
wheat here. because we sell our surplus
in precisely the same markets to which
they bring theirs, and the same thing
holds good as to other industries.
Now, if instead of going to Texas or
Washington and breaking up the lands
there, and furnishing markets for the
factories of those states, they should
come TO Minnesota, let us see what the
difference would be. They would make
our sparsely settled counties
Far Wore Eaabitable
than they now are. They would help
make roads, bridges, build churches,
schools and county buildings; help pay
taxes, and, by furnishing more freight
for railroads, reduce the burdens of rail
road tariffs, and, above all. increase the
present value Of every mans farm. AT
the same time they would create more
demand for the manufactures, the prod
ucts of shop and store and mill, and
thus give more work for laboring men;
and,
Whereas. There is no possible phase
or view of this matter in which the
great advantages to those now here are
not apparent, and will always be so,
just as long as there are undeveloped-
and unproductive resources; therefore
be it
Resolved, That tte committee OH i'm
migration be, and the same is hereby
instructed to report by bill or otherwise
such measures as will tend to secure to
this state its due share of increase Of the
population of the country.

The Sioux City JournaI Advises
South Dakota Lawmakers.

The Sioux City Joarnal Advises
South Dakota Lawmakers.
South Dakota lawmakers are strug-
Cling with an anti-scaIper bill as are
their brother lawmakers in North Da-
kota ana Minnesota. In this connection
the Sioux City Journal which circu-
lates largely in South Dakota, says in
the course of strong editorial:
sIf the South Dakota legislature has
before it nothing better in the way of
railroad legislation than the bill against
ticket brokers, it had better dismiss it's
railroad committee and close the subject
for this session.
What earthly motive the people of
South Dakota can have for attempting
to drive ticket brokers out of the state
it is Impossible to imagine. Every ticket
that broker ever sold in South Dakota
has been sold at saving of money, of
actual cash, to the peOple-at a lower
price than they could have bought the
transportation at the regular ticket Of
fees of the railroad companies. The
all all unless he sells at lower figures
than the companies do at their regular
offices.
This is the absolute fact. Why should
the South Dakota legislature want to
cut the people off from this service
which the ticket brokers certainly per-
form? If there is any state in the
Union which is interested to have ticket
brokers, it is South Dakota, where the
railroads charge cents a mile.
There are important points of legis-
lation for the better control of the car
rier corporations which the legislature
of South Dakota would do well to attend
to- 1t might we'll look into the subject
of warehouses. TO ignore all these
things. and to act as the servant of the
companies in driving out of the state
the only class of men who do effect a
saving to the people in passenger fare,
is rather absurd.
The railroad companies have the rem
edy in their own hands if they want to
use it. All they have TO do in the world
to stop the brokerage is to stop the dis
ordinations by which the brokers are
enabled to save money for the public.
An absolutely uniform mileage paSSen-
ger rate will wipe out ticket broker
age. Yet the companies propose to
maintain the determinations in passen-
senger fares, and they are asking the
legislature to prevent the public from
the only remedy which they now have.
which is the agency of the ticket brok-
erS.
The South Dakota legislature will
hardly reach SO lame and impOtent d
conclusion.

HOUSE FILE SO.
The Judiciary Committee Gives 1t
q SD acial fearing.

The committee on judiciary yesterday
afternoon had a special hearing on
House File IS, to amend sections l and
40, title l, chapter 3, Laws of 1866. E.
Warner explained what he understood
to be the object Of the bill. At st.
CT iud there are an electric light and
power company, a water power COM
pany and gas company, which desire
to consolidate into one company, which
cannot be done satisfactorily under the
law as it at present stands. The stock
holders feel it would be greatly to their
advantage to be conducted under one
management. 1t would enable them to
borrow money at better rates and facili-
tate their business III many ways. The
right of eminent domain is secured to
such companies by H. f. IS. when it
may be necessary to exercise the right,
but it could only be done in cases speci-
fed in the law, and when reasonable
compensation has been paid.
A desultOrY discussion followed as to
the possible effect of certain amend
mentS with hint of W0OdchuckS crop
ping out now and again. MessrS. Greer,
Young aud Walsh insisted on a reServa-
ton in the measure to protect the state
against the vested rights" plea in case
the Legislature desired to repeal the
grant in the future. Friends OF the bill
felt that such provision would work
to depreciate the value Of the bonds in
the eyes Of fnanciers, and protested.
An executive session was held, but
whatever the action of the mmittee
may be several members Of the house
have announced a determination to fight
the bill on the floor
