Three Young Frenchmen Attempt to Blow

MONTREAL, Nov. 21.-Three young
law students, one of them son of ex-
Premier Mercier, are under arrest for
an attempt to blow mp Nelson's monu-
ment, on jacques Cartier square. Such
plot has been talked OF fSS some time,
and special watch kept ON tie monu-
ment, with the result that the young
men were arrested soon after midnight
in the act of placing explosives at the
base of the monument. The French
population has long objected to the
monument being placed in this city,
they claiming that Nelson was an ele-
my TO their race, and recent press arti-
Giles tended to create bitter feeling.

1IexIoan Minister Complains.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.-The Mexican
minister called at the state department
again Monday, and informed the secre-
another band of 65 men has crossed
near Ell Paso. He also complained that
the Texas authorities had taken no
steps to prevent the violation of the
neutrality law, although they had been
informed of the fact that bands were
organizing in Texas to invade Mexico.
This information has been telegraphed
to General Wheaton, and it is probable
that he will at once take steps to
patrol the frontier and put stop to
any further violations of the law.

A Fair Statement:

The Washington Post, consis-
tently independent paper makes
the following fair statement:
Naturally there will be RepubIi
can tendency to claim all the glory
for the party which was defeated
a year ago, but although some OF
this partisan exultation may be
reasonably founded, any sweeping
conclusion as to Democratic ami
hilation would be unfair to the
thousands of the better class OF
Democrats who went to the polls
and voted against bossism without
regard for their partisan -inclina,
lions. In narrow sense the bal
lots tell story of popular lack of
confidence in those who last No
vember were elected to control ma
tional affairs-refect the distrust
and discomfort that spring ma
turally from the adverse financial
and mercantile conditions which
have been SO uncomfortably mani
fest during the past six months
but it is safe to say that similar ex-
pressions would have been heard
had these conditions appeared dur
ing a Republican administration.
As an indication of what may be
either in the Congression-
al election in 1894 or the presi-
Dental election in 1896, the late
election figures are not of great
but as testimony to ii Q
strength of the silent majority OF
decent American citizens when
they weary of "bosses" and ''rings"
they are Invaluable.

Rio JANEIRo, Nov. 21.-Mello and his

The squadron which escaped at the be-

The PRAYER Of Cowards.

Netzel democrat
Protection is an argument ad-
dressed to children, not to "men,
high-minded men," who constitute
a State It is the prayer of towards
and the promise of tyrants, the de-
fusion Of the abject and the hope of
the ignorant. Protection was the
reward of the negro slave for years
of unending toll. IL may be a good
word in the Sandwich Islands, but
It won't do in free America.

DeTOre laSG ne naQ Stone removed from
his bladder. Monday he was reported
mucn better.
General Rusks death was due to q
which dates back several years. Nearly
10 years ago, while governor of the
state. General Rusk had first attack
similar to that which FRUSTRATED him
on his last bed of sickness.
Up to 10 minutes of dissolution he
talked with his watchers, and he ap-.
peared to irop into a peaceful sleep.
with mo- warning whatever.
Biograhical.
Jeremiah NJ. Rusk was born in Morgan
county. o., 63 years ago, and 20 years later
removed to Wisconsin, settling near his
present home, in what was then Bad AK
county. Few men held so many public
positions. Up to war times he had served
in many local offices; was a member of the
assembly in 1862, and during the summer
following was commissioned major of the
Twenty-fifth Wisconsin, of which regiment
he afterward became colonel, and at the
close of the war &as commissioned breyet
brigadier general.
In 1867 he was bank comptroller and
was elected member of the Forty second,
Forty third and Forty-fourth congresses;
was rendered by President Garfield the
mission paraguay ana Uruguay, 10
Denmark and the office of chief of the
bureau of printing and engraving, all of
which were declined. He was elected gov
ernor of Wisconsin in 1881, and served for
three terms, a distinction never accorded
to any citizen OF the state, with the excep-
ton of General Lucius Fairchild. When
General Harrison became president in 1889,
he called Governor Rusk into his cabinet
as secretary of agriculture.
General Rusk was man of powerful
physique, being feet inches tall and
heavily built In his earlier years he was
u stage driver.
He was a man of abrupt homely speech,
but of a warm heart. He had been can
didate for much higher place when he
was offered the Uruguay Paraguay mis-
sion. BE spurned the proffered position,
saying: Where in h is Paraguay L
will go home and run for governor of Wis
consin.'
Nobody ever dreamed when he made this
remark that he could get the nomination,
but he did get it three times. His action
during the Milwaukee labor riots of 1856,
in ordering the militia to fire on the men,
which was done with fatal effect, increased
Governor Rusk's popularity in the state,
and was largely instrumental in his NOM
nation and election for a third term as
governor.
He was appointed the first secretary of
agriculture by President Harrison.
