THE HON. H. G. HANsBRoUGH.
Where is he at?

If there ever was time in the his
tory of our country when It was neces-
sary for our representatives to- have
and take a decided staad on the issues
that are now before them, this is the
time. The course pursued by our sem
ior senator on the question Of the re-
peal of the Sherman law is such that
the ordinary man cannot tell where to
find him. Why is it that the leading
papers are unable to locate the Hon.
gentleman from North Dakota? One
day they. say it is to be hoped that
Hansbrough is all right on the repeal
question. Again, they say he will
speak somewhat in favor of the silver
men butwill vote all right, and again,
they say he will both speak and vote
against the repeal Of the Sherman law.
Such undecided action on the part OF
our senator is making q great many
men here in North Dakota feel as il
there was a niger in the wood pile.
Tie dignity-of our representative, and
through him the state, is being low.

that is, provided he is pursuing any
course at all. For our life, we cannot

hope he himself does know. Mr.

he is Influenced by letters from the the
people Of his state and that only the
bankers are in favor Of repeal Thee

REDUCING}sALAKIEs.

N. D. independent In the past
week or two both the Northern Pacific
and the Great Northern roads have is
sued orders reducing salaries of EN-
ployes, from the highest DOWN, save
in the case of the Northern; Pacific,
which generously refused 10 order a
reduction on salaries under 500 a
month. #s#
The reduction Of wages on the Great
Northern arc on q; sliding scale, the
cut in salaries Of employees whose sal
aries are 81, 200 and under being Is
per cent; $4,000 and under, 20 per
cent; $1,000 and under, 25 per cent;
over $4,000, 30 per cent. The reduc-
tion on the Northern Pacific is on a
similar scale, save that the reduction
is less; and that it stops at 81, 200
salary.
Jim Hill, president of the Great
Northern, said tie other day in an in
terview that the reduction in wages on
his road which went into effect on the
5th instant, was not the result Of the
present financial and business troubles
but simply the fulfllment of a long
contemplated plan Of economy. The
reductions would eject total saving
of about 81 $50, 600 per annum: Here
tofore it has been the custom of the
Great Northern to fleece the shippers
along its line tits no longer salts
fed with that, and now starts in to
fleece it's employees. While Jim Hill
is adding millions each year to his
wealth, he is busy looping off cents
from the small daily earning of his
under paid men.

about the matter for awhile and then
put himself on record as wing the

But I'm talking about the fountain.

basin he had placed four. hogsheads of

TOMORROW's MATCH
Exciting General Interest II
Wrestling Circles.

Wrestling Circles.
The event for the week that is occa-
Sioning vast amount of talk is the
catchas-catch-can wrestling match to-
morrow evening between Jack King,
the worlds champion five-style wrestler.
and Louis Zobel, the champion cannon
ball juggler and heavy weight litter.
King will undertake to throw the IRON
muscled athlete three times an hour,
and strangle hold is barred. This latter
provision was made at ZobePS instance.
Without it, he feels confident that his
superior agility and wonderful strength
Will defeat Kings aim. As a wrestler
Zobel is an unknown quantity, but he
has friends and associates who are
backing him heavily. He has posted
his own money, and King, OIL the other
hand. is also backing himself. Together
with the original stakes, he now has
$500 up on the event. Both have been in
active training for the match for
weeks, although neither stood in much
want OF training. Zobel has been work
ing at the Phoenix Athletic club all
winter, and King has had five matches
since last fall, and is therefore in fine
trim.
King has had wonderful career on
the carpet. During the past two years
he has wrestled all the famous heavy
weights now i'll the business. and the
worst he has got was a draw, and that
was in this city with Charley Moth,
with the possible exception of his
Gr@cO-R0man contest with Moth, in
which he lost on a foul.
There is no question that the house
will be packed. The reserved seat sale
yesterday was very large, and Manager
Abbey predicts that standing room will
be al a premium.
