In claiming for Stevens county the
right to name the senator from this
legislative district, The Sun does SO
on the grounds that this county has
not had representation for ten years
in either branch of the legislature. If
we present candidate upon whom
the republicans of the district can
unite, and if we are ourselves united,
we feel confident from the expression
of sentiment voiced by the district
press, that we will be conceded the
nomination. The matteris practically
in the hands of our own people, and
they should so govern themselves that
the outcome may be unanimous
party endorsement for the nominee.

ELECTRICITY.

II must have been some old Greek
who was polishing the amber mouth
piece of his pipe with wooden rag,
and found the amber attracted light
objects,-for from the Greek word for
amber, "electron," comes the name of
what is to-day the most MYSTERIOUS
and powerful manifestation of force
that we have. For many hundred
years nothing was known about cleo
trieity, and even after the discoveries
of Newton, Franklin, Faraday, and
others, it was a sort of scientific curl
osity, about which philosophers spec.
ulated, but which had no interest for
practical men. But then the "prac-
cical men" (often another name for
the one who has no interest for any
thing unless there is in it dollar for
him) was mistaken, as he generally is
in such matters, not gratefully re-
membering the theorist, who has dis
covered the principle. Within the
last fifteen years how extensive has
been the application of electricity to
the uses of life! It was only in 1880
that the Scientific American" said:
1T seems notentirely improbable that
at some future time this force may be
applied to the running of street cars"
But many people forget, while they
stand agape at the electric car and
motor, that it is really only trans
mission of force, and back of what
they see is them onstrous steam engine.
To see the real agent take to the rail-
roads, and when you want the best
one, with daily trains to Chicago and
St. Louis, ask your ticket agent to
send you via the Burlington Route.

Congressman Tawney has in
preparation compulsory arbitration
bill, that if enacted, will undoubtedly
prove an effectual measure to prevent
strikes. The method is very simple.
In case of interruption or threatened
interruption of interstate railroad
business through a strike, either party
to the controversy may apply to the
United States district court to have
the other party show cause why the
court should not appoint an arbi-
tration board. In unimportant cases
the court may decide, provided both
parties in the controversy consent, but
should either party object to this, a
board of five arbitrator is to be
appointed ,one by each party interested
and three by the court. The parties
appointed as arbitrators by the court
are to be wholly disinterested, and
the decisions of the arbitrators, when
filed, shall have the force of judg-
ment of the court, and may be exc
cuted in the same manner as judg-
ment or order of the court.

Dan Horrigan has struck an ingenious
method Of planting corn on breaking so that

leaving the grain securely hidden in the

right depth and has every chance to grow.

ChOkiO School.

Probably the most successful term of
school that has ever been taught in. this
district, closed here last Friday, The
length Of term was nine months and the
teacher employed was b. j. O'Brien. The
total enrolment was 81, the number
entitled to apportionment 50, average at
tendance 80. This makes an excellent
showing, and commends itself not only to
the people of this district, but also to the
patrons of education throughout the county.
Roy Burt bore off the honor for punctuality,
being ither absent nor tardy during the
entire term of 1870 days. Miss Ethel Acker-
man, one of the students of the advanced
grades went to Norris last Monday, to take
high school examination. Mr.. O'Brien
came here last fall, highly recommended
by Supt. Macintosh and others; and the
condition of his school, now, at the close,
shows how we'll he has sustained the repu-
tation that he bears. The people of this
district were fortunate to secure the services
of such an able educator, and we hope the
school board will again study our in
terest enough, to give us a repetition of
this school year, and place within the reach
OF the children, the same opportunities and
advantages that was afforded in the one
that has just been closed. LiberaIity in
school matters is not extravaganza, and
nowhere does the investment bring much
| larger returns. The employment of COM;
| petent teachers means the salvation of the
rising generation, and the outlay of a
i sufficient sum of money to secure their
services is the richest legacy it can Inherit.

such group, the youthful Demosthenes
might have once been found, and Homer,
