Bismarck weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1943, 1894-08-03
HERE AND THERE.

observation OF the editorial heads OF the
Weekly Purifier, than some %allusion to
"cork."
The strike is not yet of in Bismarck.
[ saw three ladies crossing the street as
late as this morning, and each of them
held up a train.
Col. Trumbo Of Utah, says Cleveland
must recede on the tariff question. ]
am now a%nxiously awaiting the verdict
of Col. Dink Bolts.
I am pleased to learn, for the thirty
third time, that the senate has passed a
$4,000 appropriation for an institute for
the feeble minded at Grafton.
l am inclined to the belief that the
report of John L. Sullivan's continued
d%ebauchery is only another of those
monstrous fabrications of the corpora
ton press.
l understand that the name is the
only part of tile Chinese war vessel
sunk by the Japs, which has been re-
covered. Several sailors chung to it
until it foated ashore, and their lives
were spared a moist termination.
l learn from the published report of
the prohibition convention at Fargo,
that Judge Gray made eight distinct and
separate speeches upon the question Of
nominating a candidate for state uper-
i%ntendent of public instruction.
If the war between China and Japan
proves successful in the determination Of
Celestials, and the Chimes, in this coun-
try should rush to the aid of the father
land, who would arise in his might and
declare that war was not beneficial?
Wonder how the very "inside" Of the
deal between Auditor Porter and the
contractors for the south wing of the
capitol would look in print? For tits
said some arrangements were made
which weren't intended for publication.
The New York Tribune discusses "A
Question of Common Honesty" at some
length. What surprises me particularly
is that any resident or component part
of the city Of New York should SO far
forget itself as to refer to honesty as
common"
I see that MI. James j. VanAlen, who
achieved a considerably notoriety by be-
ing appointed as minister to italy and
by finally refusing to accept, Is to be
married. 1t does look as though Van
would never recover from his disap-
pointment.
After a careful and exhaustive exami-
nation Of the 25,000 ballots cast at the re-
cent st. Paul city election, I see that Mr..
Wagner, democratic, has a majority
over Mr.. Horst of just four votes. 1t has
taken Mr.. Horst about four months to
discover that he was really Horst.
I wonder if Mr.. Gould fully realizes
how monotonous is that announce
ment "Brittania again a winner" The
American people would swallow the
first thousand defeats Of the Vigllant
with a deal better grace if Mr.. Gould
would pack up his boat and come home.
The Grand Forks Herald says the
democratic delegation from the slope
would unite on Capt. Braithwaite for
governor. The Herald means we'll, but
it is not acquainted with the captain. If
every delegate on the slope we're to
favor him, he would oppose his own
nomination in order to be sagin' the mai
GRITTY.
l see it announced in the st. Paul
Pioneer Press, from Grand Forks, that
Bud Doble is to run for congress in this
state. Not knowing anything as to the
inside of the telegram, I am willing to
wager a moderate sum that, while the
telegram may be dated at Grand Forks,
the inspiration came from the town
across the river.
From present indications, we must
look to the onion for our temporal saliva
ton. I see a report from the agricultur.
al experiment station at Fargo, of
some specimens of the luscious fruit
which are a foot in circumference, and
the value Of an acre of them is estimated
at $500. The odor of a single onion,
properly distributed, will f~ertilize nearly
a section of land.
Senator Kinter of LaMoure, occupies
not a bad position, and has a duly certi-
fed appointment as receiver of the
Bismarck land Office to fall back upon,
in case his nomination for governor
doesn't assay a paying quality Of metal
to the ton. I think some of the former
aspirants for that land Office position
would have been better satisfied had the
democratic convention resulted as it did,
