TIE senatorial contest at Bismarck
IS still unsettled, and CASEY may yet
he defeated. The friends of SMITH, CT
CasS county, are standing out against a
caucus. CAsEY's friends yesterday of
fered to abide by a two-thirds caucus
rule. Afterward they went further and
offered that the nomination should be
made by vote of forty-elght Repub-
lcans. This, the report published in
this issue says, staggered the CaSs
county contingent, and there is chance
that it may fall into line. Four or five
Republicans, however. declare that
they will vote for Democrat rather
than for CASEY.

CABINET CHATTER.

The frequent mention Of Hon. Will
lam r. Morrison, of Illinois. in connec-
tion with a portfolio in Mr.. CleVeland's
cabinet is indicative of very general
impression throughout the country that
Col. MOrriSOn's appointment is looked
upon as not improbable, and that it
would be eminently acceptable-Wash-
ington Post.
The Post doesn't seem to know that
the illinois gang will never permit "our
William" to be appointed to place in
the cabinet. t.-Chicago Inter Ocean.
The selection of Mr.. Carlisle for sec
retary of the treasury meets with some
thing more than approval in Washing
ton. Democrats like it because they
regard Mr.. Carlisle as the Democrat best
fitted to represent the convictions of the
party and to guide it safely in the work
of fiscal reform. Republicans like it
because they regard it as pledge of
safe conservatism. S0und-money men
like it because Mr. Carlisle has never
been bitten by any heresy of cheap
money, while the free coinage men re-
gard his selection as Indicating on the
part of the president-elect a purpose to
deal fairly and conservatiYely with sill

The resignation Of Senator Carlisle
confirms the report that he is to enter
the cabinet as secretary of the treasury.
Probably no former secretary ever had
so great opportunities for effective and
radical work as will be Mr.. Carlisle's.
The shaping of revenue legislation will
be largely in his hands, and the tariff
policy of the Democratic party will be
outlined by him. If he succeeds he
will occupy place among the greatest

The Saltwater Messenger opposes the
bill to abolish the prison contract syS-
tenn. in this wise:
The bill introduced into the lower
branch of the legislature by Represent
ative Langum, providing for the aboli-
ton of the contract system of labor,
comes up for hearing next Tuesday.
We have no doubt but that the bill will
meet with the fate it merits, for it cer-
tainly aims at petty revenge on the
part of the one who introduces it, and
is antagonistic to the best interests of
Saltwater and of Minnesota.

The following item from the Glencoe
Register indicates that the farmers are
short on hogs:
Hogs are still advancing and are said
not to have reached the top notch yet.
Every farmer is wishing he had a few
just at the present time. They have
probably all resolved to go into the bus
mess somewhat extensively another
season. There is nothing that will pay
better at the present prices. and it looks
as if they might keep up.

not like the present system Of electing

The United States house of repre-

favoring the election of United States

If the people could once get chance
at an amendment Of this kind it would
be carried by an overwhelming vote.

attracting the attention of the country
press. The following is from the Brai-
nerd Tribune:
The good roads convention to be held
on Wednesday next in ST. Paul will be
one of the most important gatherings
ever held in the state. No subject is of
so great an interest to the farmer as

Camden, the beautiful and picturesque village

Camden, the beautiful and picturesque village
that nestles at the base of Mt Battle and Mt.
Megunticook, and has such fine streach OF
the Atlantic Ocean dotted with its many Is
lands, which with its two sceneries combined
making the place one of the finest summer re-
sorts in the world, was entirely destroyed by
fire the 10th of Nov. 1898. 1t has been scarce.
ly eight months since the fearful flames de-
stroyed this beautiful village, but in the short
time that they have had to work, there has
been erected some of the finest buildings that
we have in the state. The people are looking
on with pride to see these grand buildings take
the place of the former wooden ones that were
destroyed by fire. But through ali the mis-
fortunes that the village has passed through
there has been an industry in her midst that
has continually increased in popularity. and at
the present time is giving the people of Camden
as much pride as the erection of the village
from its ashes. This industryis the manufact-
uring of D. P. Ordway celebrated Hand Made
Plaster that has done so much to alleviate SUI
fering humanity. See ad. in this paper. mnlt

LOST CHILDREN.
1t Was Day for Them at the Police Sta
ton Yesterday.

Yesterday was enliyened at the police
station by alarms about ios' children.
To begin with, little Waiter West,
agedi six years, and important IN
knickerbackers and sailor hat, took the
freedom of the city into his hands. The
Odd Fellows and many other people were
abroad and Walter had good time until
captured by big policeman and taken
to the station. He knew his fathers
name, which was Charles F. West, but
could not say where he lived. AS MIR.
West had moved since the directory was
issued, the police were puzzled. They
concluded, however, that the boy was
too bright little fellow to remain long
uncalled for.
While little Walter West was in the
station, Mrs. Trueman OF East Deering
arrived in much trouble. In coming
from the island boat her little girl, about
six years old, had strayed away and the
anxious mother had been unable to find
her. Young Master West listened to the
pitiful story and then, before the deputy
marshal could say word, spoke up:
''Your little girl will come back all right;
don't cry.'' The prophecy was correct
and in short time the little Trueman
girl was found. But up to late hour
last evening Master West was still I'M
claimed.

Island.

1eihiists
The island season is rapidly drawing to
close, but some of the finest days of
the year yet remain for outings. Today
grand programme has been arranged at
Peaks Island and altogether it is the
most attractive of the year. Two per-
formances of the popular comedy Caprice
will be given by McCallum's company in
the Pavilion. After the afternoon per-
Torrance, Prof. Charles HI. Oldrieve will
give his wonderful exhibition of aquatic
feats and his wonderful trick of walking
on the water. His entertainment con-
cludes with the mock naval engagement
between the miniature United States
cruisers. Prof Oldrieve's exhibition was
given last Wednesday and witnessed by a
large crowd who were very enthusiastic
over the show.
In the evening will occur the grand an
nual illumination of the cottages and
buildings on the island. Everybody will
illuminate and there will be fireworks
galore. All in all it will be the biggest
day of the year at Peaks.

The Prospects of Foreign Demand for
Hay.

A prominent dealer in hay said to the
PRESS: The prospect for big prices on
hay seems to be vanishing, according to
late accounts received from the English
markets Under date of August 10th,
Thomas Irvine & Co., of Liverpool, re-
port heavy receipts of Canadian and
American hay, and quote prices for best
Canadian baled hay at $21.50 per ton, and
best American hay is quoted at $3.50 to
$3.50 less per ton, and commissions,
wharfage and trucking, also insurance,
are deducted. We can very easily under
stand, as the Hay Trade Journal of New
York says, under date of August 10th,
that speculation in hay is dangerous at
present, as late cables received by them
state lthat the foreign market demand
has greatly decreased, and prices in Eng
land are less than prices in New York
when transportation is considered.
