WASHINGTON LETTER.
Republican Majority In the Next House,
Hill for Governor.

Republican Majority In the Next House.
Hill for Governor.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 28. --Ateveryround-
IN Of the information received by Chair
man Babcock, OF the Republican Cong
eSsional Campaign committee, the indi-
cations point 10 larger republican maj
0rity in the next house. According to
the latest figures made by Chairman Bah
cock the next house will be composed Of
200 republicans, 147 democrats and pop
ulists, and 28 Of the state delegations
will be controlled by republicans. These
figures are considered by those who are
familiar with the information upon
which they are based to be very cOnserva-
tive, only those districts being put down
in the republican column which appear
ed to be reasonably certain to 60 republi-
can. For instance, the republicans only
claim eleven members from IlliOnis,
where many well-infOrmed persons be-
lieye they will elect larger number,
and where the democratic committee, ina
published estimate, comedies the election
of thirteen republicans. 1t is just the
same with New York, Mr.. BabcOck only
claims nineteen, while New Workers who
come to Washington say that at least
twenty-five and possibly twentyfour re-
publicans will be sent to the next house.
Considerable amusement was caused in
Washington by the attempt Of democrats
to appear surprised at Senator HilPs
nomination for governor Of New York by
the democratic convention, when they
knew perfectly well that the whole pro-
gram was cut and dried from the day
that Hill and Murphy compelled Flower
to withdraw as candidate. Hill has recOg-
nized for some time that this campaign
was a life and death struggle with him,
with the chances in favor Of death.
'But he concluded" says one Of his close
friends. that he preferred making the
run for governor himself and taking the
chances Of being supported by the Cleve-
land democrats, to allowing Cleveland
man to be nominated and then be held
responsible for his defeat, by democrats
outside Of New York"
By its notice that the reciprocity treaty
with the United States would cease to be
operative January /, 1895, Brazil puts
on record its disapproval Of the demo
cratic idea Of abrogating treaties, re-
gardless Of their stipulatiOns, by act Of
congress. 1t was provided in this treaty
that it might be abrogated by either gov
ernment provided a notice to that effect
were served upon the other three months
prior to the first Of January or the first
Of July Of any year.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE.
Why has not a Refined Woman as Much
Right to Vote as Plantation Negro
or an Ignorant Foreigner?
Rigi, Switzerland.

Why has not a Refined Woman as Much
Right to Vote as Plantation Negro
or an Ignorant Foreigner?
The advocates Of woman suffrage are
certainly entitled to great respect, and
there is much force in many Of their arg
uments. When woman Of high charac-
ter and culture asks us why she should
not have the right to vote while aplanta-
ton negro or an immigrant knowing
nothing Of American institutions or Of
the English language has that right, the
appeal to our sympathies is very strong.
But calm reason tells us that, after all,
the highly educated woman and
the plantation negro and the ignorant
man from abroad do not stand up
on the same level Of comparison. If
woman suffrage meant only the enfran-
chisement Of the women Of high charac-
ter and good education, there wOmld be
little opposition among the men, prOvid-
ed such women actually desire the bal
lot. But the introduction Of woman suf-
frage means also the enfranchisement Of
those classes Of women who correspond
in character and education to the plant
alton negro and the ignorant immigrant,
And now, admitting that among the
men enjoying the right to vote there are
very many whose mental and moral ct.
ness for the exercise Of political privileges
is at least doubtful, the question arises
whether 1t would be wise to increase il

SYNOPSIS.

Major Plummer. an army paymaster, is
crossing the plains with safe of greenbacks
for the garrison troops in Arizona. His cav
airy escort is led by veteran sergeant
named Feeny. The party halts at Moreno's
ranch. near Gila river. A stranger giving
his name as Ned Harvey" calls at the ranch
and states that himself and a small party
are escorting his two sisters across the
plains. Their father. wealthy citizen of
Tucson. AT, was to have met them near
Moreno's. bnt has failed to do sO,and his
children fear that he has fallen in with
murderous Apaches. Half dozen troopers,
led by Corporal Donovan, are sent with the
stranger as protection for his sisters. Later
two of the troopers return grossly lntoxlcat-
ed and bringing note signed Ned Harvey
to the effect that Indians have burned the
Harvey camp and carried off the girls.
Feeny scents ruse to rob the paymaster.
Suddenly a beacon fire is seen at an army
signal station on the crest of distant range.
a warning never displayed except the
Apaches are on the warpath.
CHAPTER IL. = Late that night a
scouting party of United States Cavalrymen,
under Lieutenant DrummOnd. is crossing the
plains from another direction toward Mo-
renos. One of the troop is mysterious re-
cruit, former stage driver. named Bland.
The riders stumble upon the body of dead
trooper which proves to be Corporal Dom
ovan. They descry the tell tale beacon at
the signal station, and shortly after second
fire lights up the sky around Morenos.

RED OXIDE OF OCHRE.
Machinery Being Purchased for the
Redwood Falls Paint Mine.
The Leases On the Coal Lands Sc
cured by the MCkinleys.

Co-extensive, almost with the oper-
ations in the Ignite fields of Redwood
county, which are so soon to be in
vestigated, can be placed the celebrat-
ed paint mines on the farm of r. w.
Clough, along the banks OF the Red
wood river. The fact of these mines
existing has long been known to the
people OF this community. and several
buildings have been painted with ma
terial taken from the mine, all of them
standing the wear better than the
paint purchased at our city stores.
To only a few, up to the present
time, has it been known that negotia-
tions have been pending for the open
ing OF these mines, and the placing of
the products on the markets of the
world. But it is nevertheless fact
that Mr.. Clough is now negotiating
with Chicago parties for the purchase
of a separator and a pulverizer, with
a view to placing it in the mines at
once.
The paint is red oxide of ochre, of
the highest quality, and when submit
ted to a professor in Chicago uni
versity some time ago he declared that
it was the finest kind of that variety,
and would wear better than most
paints. Little has been said regard
ing it of late, as Mr.. Clough has de-
sired to mine it himself, and expects
before another month passes away to
be in readiness to fill all orders that
he may receive. His one desire is to
get paint works located in this city,
and put his product in shape ready
for use as soon as it leaves the mine.
He has left sample at this office,
properly pulyerized, and only lacking
the oil for application, and to those
who have seen specimens from other
mines it appears that Mr.. Clough has
q rich thing. Asample of It was shown
to John Mckinley the other day, and
he was SO surprised at the excellence
of the quality, that he took bottle of
it home with him with view to get
ting some paint men interested. The
paint mines are expected to add great
ly to the wealth of this city before
many years pass away.

THE LEASES SIGNED.
The MCkinleys Secure an Option on
the Supposed Coal Fields.

The lignaceous outcroppings along
the banks of the Redwood and Mime
sofa rivers, which have so long attract
ed the attention of the general public,
and which have during the past three
months been the subject of extensive
talk and numerous articles in the daily
and weekly press all over the United
States, are at last to be investigated
by practical machinery and hands,and
the statement of Prof. Winchell, State
Geologist, in effect that there is moth
ing in the line of coal of paying
quantity in this vicinity, is at last to
be confirmed Or branded false.
For at four o'clock last Friday after
noon the last of the community of
farmers owning in the neighborhood
of 1900 acres of land along the hanks
of the Minnesota river, south of what
is now extensively known as the Moon
coal mine, attached his signature to
the documents giving to John and
Thos. Mckinley, the former the we'll
known Duluth operator, the right to
sink drills on their land, prospect for
minerals, at royalty of from 10 to 20
cents per ton for every ton taken from
the land, the lessees to at once put in
diamond drill, and if necessary go to
the depth of 100 feet in pursuit of
that which large number of people,

Mr. Win II. johnson, the popular propri-
etor of Hotel johnson, on State street,
takes considerable pride in his record as a
sro-tsman, but The feat which lie accom-
pished on Thursday beat all former ex-
pioits OF his. In company with Uncle Joe
Lewis, the veteran gnide and hunter, he
went out into the " oods II the back part OF
Chelsea, for the purpose of bagging some
game. They ran across two or three good
covers, but were unsuccessful in capturing
any tirds, until finally, by most remark
able streak of good luck and wonderful
presence of mind on the part OF Mr.. John
son, beautiful specimen of woodcock was
secured. Mr.. johnson was seated in his
wagon, while Uncle Joe, with dog, was
engaged in working up the birds, when o
woodcock flushed up and fl Nv toward the
wagon. Mr.. johnson stretched forth his
hand and the poor bird was in captivity, and
not a shot was fired. The bird is an excep-
tionally fine specimen, and Mr.. johnson
will have it mounted.
