the cause, in part the effect, OF the
civiliZing tendencies of our time,
comes with great appropriateness
within the sphere of WOman'S noblest
activities. And in the progress Of
time, as we recede farther and farther
from the age of brute force, the law
has given tardy recognition to the
new principle. 1t has said, among
other things, that woman is eligible
and may be elected to the office Of
county superintendent, and it has
failed to add that it is improper for
her to hold the Office or that she ought
not to ask for it.

right in good faith toward all, and in
perfect respect for the rights of other
candidates, to ask my friends of every
political faith to vote for me in the
conventions and at the polls. Two
years ago the county honored me with
2,055 votes, although | was not en-
dorsed by either the Republican or
the Democratic convention, and it
was year when great national issues
dWarfed every other consideration,
and drew party lines taut. No presi-
dent is to be elected this time and the
voters of the county, whose preroga-

Come Out All Right.
st. Peter Herald :

IeUer herald:
Somehow or another we seem to
come out all right with our crop
weather after all. The weather was
found to have been perfect for wheat
but poor for corn and now rain has
descended and we find that even corn
is to be a good crop. We whine and
grumble too much and we discover
that we do not know good growing
weather when we see it, Despite the
unsatisfactory (?) weather Nicollet
county will clean up the biggest crop
in her history and will have at least a
million and half bushels of wheat.

ANOTHER COMPARISON.

The Mapleton Enterprise, in discuss
ing the relative merits of Mapleton
and Mankato markets, admits that
Mankato has an advantage over Ma
pletOn on freight rates on wheat of
one cent bushel. 1t adds, however,
that it disputes the fact that Manka-
to prices are higher, which statement
is very amusing, when a well known
Mapleton buyer admitted. to the COM
mittee that recently visited Mapleton
thatMankato prices are generallythree
to four cents higher than are paid at
MapletOn.
The Enterprise refers to the quota
tionS on other produce, endeayoring
to show that on some articles the
Mapleton buyers pay more. To illus
trate how much more they pay, we
will take Fridays quotations in
the Enterprise and the market prices
in this city and compare them:

MAPIETON

This is taking everything quoted in
the Enterprises market report, and
shows higher range of prices paid in
MankatO on everything except barley
and corn. AS soon as the malt house
elevator is ready for business, in an
other week, there will be splendid
barley market in this city.
For the real good of Mapleton and
her business interests, it would be
well for the Enterprise to subsde, for
as it's constant harpings on the market
question have started the agitation
which must inevitably result to the
benefit of Mankato when the true
facts are known, that paper must
answer to the MapletOn business men
for the results. MankatO is perfectly
willing for Mapleton to receive it's
share of business, but untruthful
methods should not be resorted to Sc
cure it.

A wild Coxeyite.
Juice.

Yesterday evening about O'Clock,
while crowd of guests were sitting on
the porch at the Umatilla house, a
sawed-of square-built little fellow. evil
IDENTIFY German, came out of the office
door with chair in his hands and with
out further notice than to t'get away, -
swung the chair around and smashed a
window. The gentlemen sitting by the
windows were evidently ratified, for in
stead of stopping the fellow they all got
away while he continued the work of
destruction, until one after another five
of the windows had been broken.
Night watchman Gibbons happened to be
in the house and rushing out collared
the irate little fiend, who dropped the
chair, ,and when Ralph gave him one
shake that loosened his joints and
tongue he became very humble, declared
himself friend of his and wanted to
shake hands. The whole thing was
done so quickly that those present had
not recovered from their surprise until
Ralph had the fellow on the way to Jail.
1t seems the man is, or was Coxeyite,
and has just been released from the
camp in Idaho, and was given pass
over the q. P. to Portland. This, of
course, did not cover the trip on the
Regulator, and so last night he went
into the telegraph Office and asked Mr..
johnson for a pass on the boat. The
latter told him he couldn't give him a
rass, whereupon the Coxeyite said he
would ''have to stand the conse-
quences," and at once went outside and
commenced work on the windows.

Reports from Astoria are to the effect
that another big run of salmon is COM
ing. A single drift with one net yielded
$500 pounds for one man, while four
others brought in 10000 pounds. AS it
takes the fish about two weeks to reach
this point from Astoria, the run will be
too late to do much good here, the fish
ing season ending August 10th.
We print elsewhere Mr.. Condon's
statement that the Gypsy got through
all right, and that the passengers en-
joyed the trip. Incoming passengers on
the Regulator brought the story here
Monday night that she was tied up at
13-mile point. The presumption is that
they saw the Rowena and mistook her
for the Gypsy. This was quite natural
mistake, yet it shows the fallacv of
jumping at conclusions.
The steward and several of the wait
ers, four in all, from the Dalles City
concluded they would take bath Mon
day in the warm springs above the lower
Cascades. They took with them sew
| eral demijohns for the purpose of bring
ing back some of the water. AS the
time for the boat to leave arrived, a
vigorous footing of the whistles was
kept up for half an hour, but finally the
boat had to pull out and leave two of
them, the other two finding their way
back. Yesterday morning, after spend
the night in the woods, the others found
their way over the ridge and down to
the Regulator landing. The effects
would not have been worse had the dem
demijohns contained the pure old bug

Reporters.

The Arlington National bank closed
its doors yesterday.
The ferry boat is now making her
landings at the mouth of Mill creek.
The Regulator brought up another
consignment of cans last night. The
wharf is filed with them.
The freight at the portage was all
cleaned up Monday, so that shipments
now come through from Portland with
out delay.
The Regulator did not get in last
night until 10 80 O'Clock, being delayed
at the Locks, where she took on two
carloads of freight for the o. R. & n.
The pile driver is at work replacing
the trestle across Mill creek. This
should be finished tomorrow. If SO, the
road will be open to the other side of
Rowena.
The city recorder had a nice little
family party of twelve before him this
morning. Seven admitted being drunk,
two were discharged, two had their ex-

As the chances of the Wilson bill be-
ing defeated improve the price of wool
advances. One sale was made today at
nine and one eight cents, the highest
price reached this season. Yesterday
we understand the best price paid was
eight cents.
Last night a tribe of Improved Order
of Red Men was organized here, consist
ing of some thirty members. The in
stitution was sadly needed here, as the
present order of red men are not up to
that standard where no Improvement
ScanIbe made.
The first through train from the east
arrived this morning at 10 o'clock. The
last gap to the east of us was closed last
night, and though the road is not in
good condition it is passable, and just as
fast as men can do it, it will be put in
first class shape.
F. M. Schupert is the name of the
irascible German who smashed the
Umatilla house windows last night.
He was up before the city recorder this
morning charged with being drunk and
disorderly, and was given the highes,
penalty the recorder had on hand, thirty
days in Jail and fifty dollars fine.

throw of the autocratic authority of the
democratic party in that section.

1t is easy to tell that this is congress
sional election year by the buncombe
resolutions and bills introduced in con-
gress solely for vote-catching purposes.
To this class belongs the joint resolu-
tion offered by Senator George, of Miss
issippi, providing for an amendment to
the constitution of the United States
making eight hours constitute legal
days work for all persons doing manual
labor. How Mr.. Georges Mississippi
planter friends, who work their ''hands''
from "sun up to sun down" all the year,
must appreciate his alleged efforts to
tighten the burden of those engaged in
manual labor.
Senators Gray and Lindsay, the dem
ocratic mem bers of the committee that
Investigated the sugar trust scandal,
placed themselves in very unenviable
positions, when they voted against a re-
opening of the investigation, to ascertain
the truthfulness of statement asserting
that an original order given by Senator
Camden, of West Virginia, for the pur-
chase of block of sugar trust stock was
in existence; also photograph of that
order. It but proved the charge that
the democratic members OF the COM
mittee had never had any desire to un-
cover anything rejecting upon demo-
cratic senators, althoughit did not pre-
vent a reopening of the investigation.
Senator Camden swore that he had
never purchased any sugar stock, and if
it can be proven that he did the COM
mittee should lose no time in placing
the facts before the United States dis
trict attorney in order that the grand
jury may find an Indictment for perjury.
United States senators are just as
amendable to law as iother men.

him field services in time of need.
In 1890 he declined to run
