Bnt the change Of position of Mr.. Cal
houn and his followers eventually found
expression in the compromise tariff Of 1883
This continued in force for about 10 years,
and while it claimed the excitement in the
South occasioned by the multi fcation cpl
sode Of 1882, it at length produced the.
great financial crisis of 1897, period OF
distress almost equal to that which pre-
ceded the enactment of the tariff Of 1894.
Many OF our older citizens recall with q
shudder the hardships and privations
which were endured throug th coun-
try from 1881 to 184a. They justly attrii-
5buted the prevailing distress to the tariff
OF 1888, and, when opportunity came, as it
did in 1910, they overthrow and drove from
power in all branches OF the government

sterlng company have rented the Barnes
building on Fifth avenue south and,
after Monday next, will be in position
to do general upholstering, cutting and
fitting of carpets, recaneing chairs, make
or remake mattresses, renovating feath-
ers and other work of a similar nature in
a workmanlike manner and on short
notice. The latest machinery necessary
to do work OF this kind is now being
put in.
1he members of the firm are G. A.

largest furniture houses in the United
States, located at Omaha. Neb.. an ex-
pert IN the upholsterlng trade, and j. II.

a Popular Judge.

Judge Temple,on of Grand Forks was
visitor in the city Saturday lnquiring
into the general sentiment in this part Of
the state regarding his candidacy for su-
preme judge. The judge is popular in his
own DISTRICT and the good feeling that
prevails for him there extends far
beyond tho confines of the district itself.
In fact Judge J'empleton has acquired
a state reputation for legal ability and
satisfactory work 90 the bench. He
Gays that many republicans. in the east
ern part of the state will vote for him,
likewise many independents, and
this statement has excellent foundation
when the we'll known preference
that was manifested in the independent
state convention fer Judge Templeton is
remem bered. Mr.. Newton of Bismarck,
was new name to most of the delegates
who anticipated the nomination of Judge
Templeton, probably without any oppo-
sition. The people will have no cause to
regret it Judge Templeton is elected to
the supreme bench. 1t is more i'm.
portant position than be now holds and
the opportunity to fill it with judge
tried and not found wanting does not
often occur.

johnson W as 'MlSo0IOrmeu.
The Bismarck Tribune is compelled to
admit that Congressman johnson was
misinformed about the compulsory
agreement OF capitol building workmen
to vote the independent ticket. The
yarn wss fully exploded by affidavits Of
such responsible people that even NJ. N.
johnson will have to take it
back in English, but probably
will continue to spread 1t in a
foreign language until after the election.
This "mistake' is in line with the
other campaign "mistakes" and canards
about other state candidates opposed by
the Fargo Argus. Bismarck Tribune and
Grand Forks Herald. Such, for in
stance, as the recent statements about
Auditor Porter "holding back state
funds" when the treasury was over
drawn, and that Mrs. Laura Eisenhuth
is posing as fraud before the people of
the state.
The information comes from several
quarters that this kind of argument is
simply making friends for the people
who are so attacked, as it ought to do.
As state officials they are pretty we'll
known by this time, and ought to be
proof against a few late hatched cam
paign lles.

That Ballot Item.

In discussing any local question that
affects his own interests, Editor War
pock Of the Capital seldom pays any
regard for the truth of his statements.
If distortion of facts will not answer the
purpose, personalities, and generally
both, are resorted to. jamestown VIC
tins know this so we'll that further refer
ence to it is unnecessary.
Referring to the price the county paid
for It's ballots he says, as a sample dis
tortion, that The Alert charged $50
more than the Capital for the work. The
bids were: Der Pioneer, s10O.so; Alert,
sl02.50; Capital-for Fargo house
$3.50; difference between that and
Alert's bid, S26-not $50. The outside
firm charges about $40 for the tickets,
and with freight and discount on war
rants otf-the profit is hard to find for a
jamestown firm, some one of which
should have had something for the work
done at home, to he paid out to wage
earners here, instead of those in another
town.
In this instance the county is little
ahead, on a job that is needed once in
two years; but from other bills for GER
tain alleged services and supplies, that
have been allowed, and are in prospect
of being allowed. it seems that a saving
some where is highly necessary
hence the printer and the legiti-
mate merchant and business firm is
made to stand it, while some one else
gets q benefit.

The receipts Of sheep for last week in
the same market were 95,OOU. There.
never was week which closed with so
many unsold sheep in the yards. The
outlook for the sheep market is bad
unless supplies are cut off, as dressed
mutton at eastern points is so low that
packers say they cannot pay decent
price. Prices have declined 25 cents to 60
cents on both sheep and lambs-choice
sheep, 1925 to s2.75, and lambs from

AS to the Sheriff.

John s. Johnson: I would like to
have my friends and those who have ex.
pressed themselves favorably to my
candidacy know that a plan Is being
worked to get votes for Mr.. Barner, the
independent candidate, by the friends OF
Sheriff Eddy, on the grounds that every
vote cast for Mr.. Bsrner taxes one from
myself an is practically vote for Mr..
Eddy. I have received a great deal OF
encouragement to make the fight TO.
sheriff on the grounds that I would con-
duct the Office, if elected, in an economi.
cal and fair way, and in the interests of
the county. For this reason desire to
notify my friends Of the above plan to
draw votes that are friendly to both my
self and Mr. Barner, but which will re-
suit in giving another the vote instead.

LEGISLATIVE CANDIDATES.
Some Reasons for Considera-
ton in Choice for the
Legislature.
A Phase of the Sheriff'S Con.
test--Rich Ore in State Of
Washington.

There ls strong sentiment in favor OF
J. I. Eager as one Of the members for the
legislature from this county. There Is
no Disgusting the fact that If Roger Allin
is elected governor, 1t will take all the
"pulp' the county has to keep the feeble
minded institution IN it's present loca-
tion. The scheme is to divide the future
appropriations for the state hospital, by
gradually increasing the scope OF the
proposed feeble minded school to full
fedged hospital. 10 prevent this, as
The Alert has pointed out, it will be
necessary to rely chiefly on the indepen-
dent members Of the legislature. That
party Is pledged in its platform to re-
duction instead of increase OF expenses,
particularly where not actually neces-
sary. The two independent candidates
therefore, Mr.. Eager and Mr.. Nashold,
represent reasons for more than the
usual consideration in the choice of men,
bers of the legislature. With arepubli-
can majority in both houses and gov
ernor living in the county, where it is
proposed to establish WHAT will be prac-
tically new institution, it will be an
easy matter to get removal bill
through the legislature. For James
town this is not matter of pure politics
and all people interested in the town
and in preserving undivided the present
state institution for many years at least,
ought to consider it entirely outside of
politics.
There are other excellent candidates
for the same offices seeking votes, but
/ the question with the people of the town
and county is, who will serve us the
most effectively, not who can we compli
ment by electing to the honorable place
as members OF the law making body of
the state.

VIM. Stuff Loses His House and All
Its Contents.
Word reached the city yesterday after
noon Of the loss by fire, occasioned by
the explosion Of lantern, Of the farm
house with all the contents, Of Wm.
Stun, located Is miles northeast Of here
and few miles southeast of Spiritwood
lake. The loss is total. Insurance $500
on house and $50 on contents in the St..
Paul Fire and Marine Insurance CON-
pany. The fire occurred about 7:30 p.
M, Friday, the 10th inst. Mrs. Stuff
was sick in bad at the time and it was
with difficulty that she and small
amount OF bedding we're saved. All the
household furniture, clothing. ETC.. 100
bushels Of potatoes and other property
was destroyed.
Mr.. Stuff upon coming in from his
days work discovered that his COWS were
gone and after short search decided to
cook his supper and then search for
them. Leaving the lantern in the wood
shed it exploded and when the fire was
discovered it had gained too great head
way to be checked. The loss falls heavily
at the time of the year and the unfortu-
nate family will be Obliged to turn q
granary into q house and use that this
winter.

both barn and hotel equally divided
among the German American, the Nj
agara, the British American and the
Traders insurance companies. Each
company carried $3.50 insurance on each
building. The hotel cost soout $4,000
and the barn $1,000. The loss on the
latter will amount to several thousand
dollars above tho insurance. The barn
was built in 1882.
MOTIFS.
It seems that Dunlap, the man who
said to have jumped from the hay NOW
has told several different stories as to
the time he entered the barn. To one
he said he was in the barn at 1920; to
another at II p. M, and to another that
drunken man was with him-didn't
know when be did enter the building.
He entered the building, however,
through the shed in which wood was
sawed, by the wind mill, which sur
mounted the barn. By his own story 1t
was about midnight. He had no per-
mission to sleep in the barn, not being
employed there. In fact, Bullock did
not know that he was in town. When
Night Policeman Lou Cadieux reached
the fire, among the first, the fire seemed
to be burning strongest in the woodshed
as though it had originated there. 1t is
believed by some, that Dunlap when
entering. accidently dropped light here
and in lis endeavors to extinguish the
blaze, tore and burned his hands and
5listered his face. An investigation,
however, may prove this otherwise.
A small barn 24x14, owned by Phil
Mason, standing east of Smiths barn
was burned. Two COWS which we're in
the building we're taken out in time. An
other barn 40x50 feet belonging to Jack
Harris, which stood at the north end of
Mr.. Smiths barn also burned to the
ground. This contained horse and
three pigs belonging to Mr.. Mason, all OF
which we're saved. No insurance on
either of these barns.
Mr.. Smith has been carrying $4,000
insurance, but owing to the almost pro-
hibitory rate had dropped $1,000 of it,
1000 only recently.
Harry Helm: l lost nothing in the
| fire. Had three horses in the barn, but
fortunately removed them few days
ago. Would have been very sorry to
lose any of them. That brood mare of
II. B. Wood's-"Innes"-was one OF the
best animals ever brought to this state.

WASHINGTON COPPER.
Richard Sykes Developing Ameri
can Mining Property.

Richard Sykes Developing Ameri-
can Mining Property.
Richard Sykes returned Thursday from
visit to the Washington mining prop
critics Of the company in which he is in
terested. They are located not far from
Everett, on Puget sound. and consist Of
copper and other minerals, chiefly the
former. The deposit is said to show
very rich in exposed ore, ground away
and washed off from the face of d
mountain chasm by centuries OF glacial
action. Development work has been
done to considerable extent already. 1t
is proposed to erect large smelter on
some convenient site at tide water, and
possibly build railroad to connect with
one Of the already constructed lines that
pass through Everett and Seattle. Mr..
Sykes had Photographic views of the
"Lit1le Chief" and Sultan mines; also
has had drawings of the dip of the veins.
etc. The property lies within seven or
eight miles OF the famous Monte Christie
mines, from which q railroad has already
been built to Everett and a smelter
erected by Rockefeller and the Northern
Pacific syndicate, at an expense of two
millions or more, it is claimed. One of
the singular circumstances connected
with this latter investment le that the
smelter was built for the reduction OF
silver ore, the road constructed and min.
ing begun without the company appsr-
entity knowing the exact kind of mineral
the mine contained. Instead Of silver it
,s now said the Monte Christie mines are
mostly copper o: low grade.
Mr.. Sykes said that business Was still
dull on the coast, but preparations were
going on for an expected revival. Every
one has faith in the country and it's re.
sources.
He referred to the wide circulation his
recent interview in The Alert had
obtained, IN which he advised farmers of
North Dakota to cease raising wheat for
export on account OF the lmpossibility Of
