When Josquin de Pres, chapel master to
Louis XII Of France, wanted his earnings
increased, he did not straightway compose
gigantic symphony, a trilogy or even a
sickly sentimental ballad with an unctuous
refrain-the latter a sure means to good
royalty-but he took the liberty of refresh.

but unambitious motel.
Josquin was an ecclesiastic as well as
musician, and lis excellent prince had long
promised him IA benefice. This pledge,
however, was forgotten, and Josquin, in
convenienced by the shortness of the kings
memory, ventured publicly to remind him
of his word. Being under command to
compose motel for the royal chapel, he
selected part of the one hundred and nine
teenth psalm for his subject, "Oh! think
upon thy servant as concerning thy word"
which words he set so exquisitely and
plaintively that his master took the hint
and bestowed upon him the preferment.
Josquin had keen mind. With much fe-
licity he took advantage of the occasion and
composed hymn of gratitude to the words
from the same psalm, 40 Lord, thou hast
dealt graciously with thy servant"-which
it is to be hoped his majesty appreciated.
An inappreciative wag would say that
Josquin might more appropriately have Sc

Saturday Mr.. S. M. Houghton re-
tired as manager of the Fargo Mercantile
company. and his position will be filled by
]. c. Davis of Vermillion, S. D.. who has
purchased Mr.. Houghton's interest in the
firm.
The STAR sincerely regrets Mr.. Hough-
toms leaving the ranks of our business
men, as he has shown his splendid execu-
tive ability in the way he has managed the
affairs of the company since it was organ
lied. He has not decided what he will do,
but has several matters in the east he will
go to look after in the near future. 1t is
possible he may conclude to remain in Hot
Springs or in the Hills. and his family will
remain here during the summer at all
events.
The new man. Mr.. Davis, comes to the
firm with years of mercantile experience.
and is a mos excellent business man. His
wife is in poor health and he expects to
bring his family here in the near future.

The Sioux City Journal has u politi-
cal correspondent at Deadwood. He
may voice the general republican SEN
timent of Deadwood, and he may not.
If he does we imagine that they
are figuring on too big a catch, for
they are apparently fishing for favor
for Frank Washabaughf for congressman
for Kirk Phillips for treasurer. The
Black Hills country has almost too
many people in It now to bunch good
things in that manner The cores
pondent wasn't altogether sure, how
ever, but that Capt. Lucas will be east
ly nominated anyway, but merely
wanted to mention the fact, you know,
that Franks friends were urging him
to be q candidate. IfaFrank's friends
are Kirk Phillips friends, and are
really and sincerely anxious that Kirk
should be nominated, they should not
make too many demands of the party.
Deadwood is not the Black Hills. The
Black Hills is unquestionably for Capt.
Lucas returnto congress, and the Black
Hills is also very likely for Kirk Phil
lips for treasurer. In this sentiment
Deadwood will probably unite with the
Black Hills.

How sweet for public sentiment to
be unanimous. There's SO much mean
ing in that word Unanimous" during
such times as these, that to hear the
expression brings a sigh of relief, and
when we peruse u republican ex-
changes from over the state, and CLEAN
from their columns the facts that the
opinion is almost unanimous for the
denomination of about all of the old
officers who are candidates, why should
it not create a general sigh of relief
among the people? To name a ticket
without great contention means unity
of party, and unity means strength and
success. These are each coming, and
therefore it is pleasant to contemplate
the approach of the conventions and
the election.

An appropriation of $4,000 has he.

An appropriation of $4,000 has been
asked of congress by Congressman
Lucas for experimenting in irrigating.
There would be but little experiment
in the Hills country in the irrigation
business. With a few thousand dol
lars properly invested in Fall River
county in opening irrigating bitches,
building dams, reservoirs, ETC., thous-
ands of magnificent acres of land
would be made richly productive. By
making appropriations for such pur-
poses congress would not only be giving
large numbers of idle men immediate
employment, but the labor wouldbe en-
pended in a direction whereby constant
employment would be given many men,
attractive homes and productive fields
would take the place of barren deserts,
and the benefits in each instance would
be meritorious and worthy the invest
ment made by Uncle Sam. More
expenditures upon the part of the gov
eminent along such lines, and less in
mammoth and useless public buildings
throughout the country would, it seems
us, be proper and wise. The construc-
ton of public buildings is ornamental,
as well as beneficial to the cities secur-
ing them, and for the time being bene-
fits a few laboring men, while the
greater benefits from appropriations
for irrigating purposes would come
after the expenditure for labor was
made. Let the government appropriate
the necessary amount for irrigating the
arid, though rich lands of the west and
the present as we'll as future genera
tions will be directly benefited, and
ever continue to praise congress for the
good they thus would do.
