ANDREW HENNEMAN of ST. Cloud has
been appointed to succeed Capt, West,
whose time expired April LIST. James J..
Hill had ca9didate in the person of
Capt. w. w. Wright, but Mr.. Baldwin
seems to have the more influence with
the administration. There were halt
dozen applicants, but Mr.. Henneman was
the man agreed upon at the Baldwin
conference held Immediately after his
slection with the Stearns county faith
full. The slate has been respected by
Major Baldwin, however much he may
have wayered at times. Now let us see
whether the Major is as infiuentialin the
Interior as in the post office department.

lit il common remark among repub-
licans that is a Aational election were to
take place now they would carry the
country by an Overwhelmingly majority,
and there is also very general belief
that they win have majority in the next
national house. There is no-doubt that
If an election for president were to occur
now the republicans would carry every
Northern state. but it will not bes easy
to get majority in the next house. The
democrats are strongly intrenched and
have decided advantages. To begin
with they have 120 districts which are
safely democratic without the expendi-
ture ola dollar or the making of a
speech. These are in the Southern states.
where free speech does not exist and fair
elections are unknown. Every one OF
those 100 districts is as safely democra-
tic as the worst ward IN New York City.
The house as now constituted is COM
posed OF $50 members. of whom GIG are
democrats, 1913 republicans and IL pop
ulists. A quorum is 179, so that, start
ing with 100 members i'll the South the
democrats only have to carry fifty. nine
districts in the North to give them a
majority of two. The republicans in
order to have majority of two will
have to carry every district now repre-
scented by democrats. This Is possible
and not improbable, but it cannot be
done without hard work. There is a
reason to believe that the democratic
managers have already begun toaccumu
late large camgaign fund, and they
have made sure Of liberal contributions
from the sugar trust, the distillers, The
brewers and other favored interests.
Therepublicans will enter the next CAM
paign united and hopeful and with the
tide of popular feeling running strongly
their way, but if they expect to get con-
troll of the house they must put forward
strong candidates aud put forth their
best efforts. Elections are sometimes
lost through overconhdence.

Free Raw Materials.

Secretary Carlisle, in the course
of his annual report, says: IF the
worlds store of raw materials we're
as accessible to the American work
ingmen as it is to his competitor in
other manufacturing countries. his
superior skill, sobriety and indus
trious habits would enable him with
out artificial aid. to supply many
parts of the world where his pro
ducts are now never seen, with ma
chinery, implements and various
kinds of textile fabrics of such quail
tiles and such prices as would ex-
clude all competition and create
demand fora large increase of our
productive forces. With free raw
material also as permanent feature
of our revenue legislation the de-
mand for labor would steadily grow
with the extension of trade, while
enlarged opportunities for the profit
able investment of capital would
stimulate the spirit of enterprise
among our people and greatly d.
minish the danger of periodical sus-
pensions, lockouts and strikes, which
have in the recent years SO seriously
interrupted our industrial progress" "

DON'T SOUND THE ALARM
Unless there is Fire-The Department
Should Find and Fire Fool
ish Freak.

Some practices are idiotic and
wrong. One Of them is to sound the
fire alarm when meeting of the
fire company is called. That is not
what the fire alarm is for If the
fire company wants to meet it is not
necessary to alarm every body in
town on that account. The fire de-
partment is an institution which we
could i'll afford to do without and as
department is opposed to the sense
less ringing the alarm in order that
meeting may be called. This &C.
tion is not one endorsed by the de.
partment, but it occurred because
there was probably good cause of
jubilation over the success of the
Firemen's Ticket in the municipal
election. and some irresponsible
members sliced The opportunity to
let the bell 60 in order 20 call the
laddies together. Everybody was
excited, but not on account of the
result of the election. People were
alarmed as they usually are when
there is fire. They ran ana loudly
inquired where was the fire. They
have right to understand that
when there is an alarm there is fire.
The firemen have no right to give an
alarm unless there is. If the coun-
Gil is to do some FIRE depart
ment legislation let one of the first
things be to make it an offense pun
ishable by fine and Imprisonment
for anybody to sound the fire alarm
unless there is a fire. If the people
are to be excited and alarmed as they
were last Thursday night for a meet
ing of the department it will be sc
after time that when there is ac-
tually Il fire alarm no one will pay
any attention to it, thinking il is a
meeting.

YOUNG COUPLES PLAN
or Matrimony Sweet, Completely Fooled
BY q Father More Discreet.

Lon Henry is distant cousin of
Miss Jessie Henry. Neither of then
lives far from the lines which mark
this municipality and both are well
known young people. The natural
tie of blood was not so strong in
their young hearts, however, as that
of the affection which had been nur-
tured and grown great with the
living, ever present hope of some
day bearing the relationship of hus
band and wife. George Henry-Jes-
sizes father-objected to Lon as a
prospective sonin-law. The objec-
ton was not one that was nursed in
solitude and known only to himself;
it was one well known TO exist by
both Lon and Jessie aud all the
neighbors round. The paternal adj
verse argument against Lon did not
make the daughter submissive to
that authority. She was obdurate,
and the swain was of similar turn,
of mind. They had heard, no doubt
that "love laughs at locksmiths" and
all that bosh and so they concluded
that they would not defer longer to
any plan by others made to the con-
trary. but marry they would. 1t
was settled between them at one of
those meetings which, if report be
true, were frequently clandestinely
held. But where? Where should
they go to be married? That
for a time was poser. They could
not get license to marry in this
state without the parents consent) J,
for the girl was but little over 16
years old. 1t was then decided that
they would drive to Terra Alta and
take the train from there for Oak
land, Md. At the Maryland town
there is no difficulty in runaway
couples tieing up. And by this
plan they got left.
Wednesday night they met and
away they started for the town on
the mountain top. 1t is long,
weary journey at the best of times,
and especially go at this time of the
year. thursday morning MI. Hen
~ noted the absence of his daughter
from home, and it at once dawned
upon him where she had gone, and
be adopted the plan whereby he
could yet resch Oakland before the
truants with marriage intent could.
He took the train here at 9:35, and
reaching Terra Alta the runaways
got aboard the same train. When
they were comfortably seated Henry
here proceeded to dispel the fond
spirit of their dreams in forcible
pugilistic manner. He rained blows
and all the walls Of his wrath upon
Ions devoted head, and that young
man was knocked down and "done
up" generally. Train officers sepa-
rated the combatants, or no one
knows how the detected bridegroom
would have Jared.
But he Jared bad enough, he
thinks. Mr.. Henry brought his
daughter home with him, and she is
still Miss Henry. Lon came back
with the vehicle, but not with a
bride.

Sine is not resident of this coun-

Last Wednesday night the store
of Z. w Piles, at Ponetown, was
robbed Six watches, chains and a
few other articles were taken. No
effort was made to apprehend Sine
as he was not suspected of the rob-
berry, but he has since confessed
that he picked the pieces out of a
pane Of window glass in Piles store
and thus gained an entrance. He
went to Fairmont that night and
traded one of the watches there and

THE CHEAT RIVER BRIDGE


Drake, Strattoa Il Co.'S. engine
No. IL crossed Cheat bridge at Point
Marion Tuesday. Jimmy" O'Ger-
sn pulled the thrnstle which released
to motive power and applied it to
the driving wheels of the engine
pulling the first train load of fat
cars across the structure, and 1t is a
proud distinction for him. The
train glided over the spans leading
from one bank to the other of the
treacherous stream as smoothly as
if it had been an old and oftrepeated
experience Of the bridge to bear
heavy and precious loads. The test
proved the structure it was expected
and intended to be-strong and sub
stantial, sufficiently so to meet all
the burden requirements of this one
and other years to come. The en-
cheering calculations had so decid
ed before train was run over it,
and its safe passage bear out these
same calculations. The bridge is
all right 1t is finished, forging Of
the last link in the Fairmont, Nor
gantown and Pittsburgh branch of
the Baltimore 4 Ohio railroad.
On the day the construction train
passed over the bridge the work of
ballasting the road from the bridge
to Granville began. The first train
of Is cars of Stag and cinders from
the Fairchance furnace was dumped
on the track from the south end of
the bridge and spread and packed
solid between the ties The work Of
ballasting will proceed this way, and
not very rapidly, as it is estimated
that it will take six weeks TO finish
the work. And it now goes merrily
on, so that it may be seen when the
company could. if it should SO order,
run trains on it, But as yet there
has been no information on this
point given out. In fact, no decision
has been made by those directing
the roads affairs on that point. 1t
is to be hoped that trains will be put
on before May, the time for the next
change of schedule, but no one
knows at this time whether they will
be or not

TIE QUESTION OF THE HOUR

Is maxim that is peculiarly applica-
bic TO these hard times. wastefulness
at all times is foolish; il is worse than
that now when thousands are suffer
ing from lack of the necessaries of
life.
The Pittsburg Times is an object
lesson in proper economy. 1t presents
one of the chief necessities of life
all the news-at the lowest possible
cost. Notwithstanding the fact that
the Pittsburg Times is sold for only
one cent day, the claim is made for
it that it is the most complete news
paper printed in Pittsburg, that ev-
cry occurrence of human interest in ev-
cry part of the globe is promptly re-
ported in its columns; that it is essen
tally paper for the home, everything
of an Objectionable character being
excluded: that it is the only paper in
Pittsburg whose market reports are
reliable and revised every day in the
week; that it is the only Pittsburg
newspaper which prints daily care
fully prepared department for the la
dies, and once a week report, prepared
by experts, of special Interest TO agri-
cultural readers, and, finally, it is the
only Pittsburg newspaper which
prints daily the highest class of fic-
ton.
In addition to all this, the Times
offers TO all its readers at nominal
cost the opportunity of securing one
of the highest class magazines printed
in the country, and to the ladies their
choice during the year 1894, of twelve
of the most approved paper patterns,
with privilege of selecting from a list
