House,

House,

gagged in the restaurant business for
many years and has earned a high
reputation in his line of business.
He conduts the Queen Chop House,
a restaurant and short order house,
and is just moving into new and
larger quarters. He will occupy
the building where Nell Yates has
had his Sideboard. This will be
fitted up and furnished in the most
approved style and Mr.. Cormier
will be prepared to serve up meals
in style, being prepared to spread
the finest that may be ordered.
1t is a credit to Bonner's Ferry
to have such place as Mr.. Cor
mier will conduct. and it would af-
ford the HERALD pleasure to see the
Queen Chop House flourish for that
reason if for no other.

BRANDENBURG g. VANoAsKEN.
Leading Merchants of KalspeIl and
Bonner's Ferry.

'N' ~''T
One Of the leading firms of this
country is that of Brandenburg &
VanGasken, and they have stores
in BOnner's Ferry and Kalispell.
They carry line of general mer-
chandise and their stock is esti-
mated at $4,000 at each place.
Messrs. VIM. VanGasken and M.
Brandenburg have been associated
in business together for the past
fifteen years or since 1878. At
the beginning of their partnership
they were located at Miles City,
Montana, where they were engaged
in the live stock and butchering
business. Here they prospered till
'86, when owing to over stocked
ranges and hard winters, the stock
business ceased to be profitable.
They sold the greater portion of their
stock and retired from the business
finally opening in the mercantile
business in Kalispell in 1891. In
the spring Of '92, Mr.. VanGasken
came to Bonner's Ferry. His bus
mess foresight told him at once
that it was place of great posi-
bilities as a commercial point, and
he engaged in business at once,
opening a grocery, produce and
commission house on Main Street.
Mr.. VanGasken often laughs now
at the meagre stock with which he
opened, but his business has grown
until now it is one of the most ex-
tensive in the country. He prob
ably did larger jobbing trade in
the Kootenai Lake country during
the last year than any wholesaler
in Spokane. Mr.. VanGasken now
conducts two stores in Bonner's
Ferry. One at the post Office and
the other on Main Street, the latter
presided over by Mr.. r. L. Noting
ham.
Mr.. VanGasken is a great rustler
for trade. If there is no business
he will make business; thus we see
him taking logging and wood con
tracts, etc. This gives work for
laboring men, and he supplies
the camps with goods. 1t is his
qualities as a rustler that has en-
abled him to build up such bust
ness as he now conducts.
Their stores carry everything in
the General Merchandise line, and
they aim to sell a good quality and |
sell at a price to compete with all.
Both members of the firm have
occupied high positions Of trust in
Montana. Mr.. Brandenburg was
at one time county treasurer of
Custer County, while Mr.. VanGas-
ken has served as county commits
sioner of the same county. He was
also member of the third cohstitu-
al convention.

Three WAYS 70 Happiness.

"Of ways for becoming happier Cnot
happy 1 could never inquire cut mere
than three. The first rather an
elevated road is this: To soar away
so far above the clouds Of hfe that
you see the whole external wOlrd. with
its wolf dens charnel houses and
thunder rods lying far down beneath
you shrunk into a little child's garden
The skyward track, however. is Mt only
for the winged portion Of the human
species, for the smallest. The second
is simply to sink down into its little
garden, and there to nestle yourself
so snugIy. so homewise in some furrow,
that in looking out from your warm
lark nest, you likewise can discern no
wolf dens, charnel houses or thunder
rods, but only blades and ears, every
one of which for the nest bird is a
tree, a sun screen and q rain screen.
The third, finally. which 1 look upon
as the hardest and cunningest, is that
of alternating between the two. The
foregoing second way is not good
enough for man, who here on earth
should take into his hand not the
sickle only, but the plow- But even

general air of disappointment, however,

When reference to the tariff was

greatly, but much surprise was evil

THE BRITISH PRESS.
A Little Piessed. But Not at all over
joyed.


London, Dec. 4.-The News will say
of Cleveland's message: 1T is well
worthy Of the national crisis in which
it is delivered. The inference from Mr..
Cleveland's facts and figures, whether
intended or not. is it is the true pol
icy TO cultivate close relations with u.s.
II seems generally agreed that the new
tariff proposals will not largely affect
our trade with the United States"
The Chronicle: I'm the references
to Brazil and the Behring sea in
President Cleveland's message, there
is nothing that might not have been
fathered by President Harrison. 1t
is otherwise with reference to Hawaii
In awaiting Cleveland's decision the
friction that would probably have
been caused thereby, by interference
at the time, has been avoided, but the
result is the same
In regard to the reform of the tar
if, the Chronicle says while the presi-
dent will have the good wishes of
every sound economist in the battle
he has begun, it would be premature
to regard it as already won, because
the biggest battalions are at present
on his side
Telegraph: 1.-THE portion Of the
message which displays President
Cleveland at his best is the reference
to Hawaii Such a frank and honest
admission of mistake and a declar-
alton of intention to reverse it. reflects
the highest possible credit upon the
president and indirectly upon the ma
tion also. The president is evidently
convinced that the American public
would be magnanimous enough to up
hold his action and he was probably
right in so thinking
The Morning Post-"President Cleve-
lands abstention from party rhetoric
at the expense of his opponents is all
the more creditable as his opportuni-
ties for the employment of scathing
invectives were exceptional" The
Post expresses surprise that the Ha-
waiian incidents are mentioned in the
message without any expression of
shame or indignation.
The Daily Graphically. Cleveland
is to be congratulated upon his firm
ness and consistency"
The Times-"The portions Of the
message bearing upon foreign affairs
are conceived in a highly creditable
spirit. Considering the chauvinism of
our American kinsfolk, il is more
icreditabie that the president has
frankly admitted the wrong done to
Hawaii. Mr.. Cleveland would doubt
less be inclined to go a deal further
than the Wilson BILL but recognized the
obstacle to progress caused by the
deficit in the Wilson bill. II viii benefit
the American worlingmen and place
the manufacturers upon something like
a level with their foreign competitors
Whether these changes, in the long
run. will benefit British industry and
trade is doubtful
The Standardization our point of
view, and in spite of Mr. Cleveland's
friendly attitude towards England we
might also regard the proposed new
tariff as the work of an enemy It's
natural consequence is to create a new
competitor for the old business abroad
and we can only hope the experience
and benefit of cheap raw materials
may lead to better things in other
directions.

MaIfeasance in Omca.

Denver Dec. 4.-Governor Waite re-
moved State Penitentiary Commissioner
Reynolds this afternoon on account of
malfeasance in office. He is charged
with having kept on deposit in his bank
in Canyon City, prison money which
should have been turned over to the
state treasury, and with having been
interested in prison contracts BY the
appointment of Reynolds successor,
the governor will obtain control of the
penitentiary board, and will then at
tempt to remove Warden McAlIister.
The warden has fortified himself by
the appointment of guards who will
sacrifice their lives if necessary in de-
Tense of his interests. He says he will
not surrender the prison until the
courts decide against him.

ers g great deal of ground, but upon

new bill with the present law were

DEEDS OF A DEMON.
Awful Work of Crazy Morphine
Fiend

Erie, Pa, Dec. Edward Cady, a
mechanic, while under the influence
of morphine, planned to murder his
entire family and would have sue
ceeded but for the timely arrival of his
wife. He borrowed a revolver and
after sending his wife out OF the house
began his nurderous work. He first
killed little Bertha while she was
studying her school lessons; then
sent a ball through Walters
brain as he lay on the bed
suffering from morphine previously
given by his father. Cady then tried
to kill his eldest son, lad of 10, but he
ran out of the house and called his
mother. Baby Hazel was next to be
slaughtered, but was saved by Mrs.
Cady's arrival. Cady glared a mo-
ment at his distracted wife, then turn
ed and put a bullet through his own
brain. 1t is feared Mrs. Cady will lose
her reason.
