Among the leading candidates 70

Among the leading candidates for
the position of secretary of the senate,
we notice the name of III. l.. Hop
kins, of the Henry Independent.
There is not a better qualified man
in the state for this position than
''Hop." A good reader, possessed
of a parliamentary knowledge second
to none and armed with years of ex-
perience in Legislative work, Fl. L.
Hopkins would make a secretary of
whom our senate would be proud.

By the laws of our state, quail are
protected until 1898, with a penalty
attached of so. and costs bird
killed before that period, but in
spite of this fact, it is reported that
pot-hunting sportsmen are killing
the quail in the neighborhood OF
Waubay lake. Several indignant
citizens have declared their intentions
of making an example of any parties
caught at this law-breaking pastime
and it is to be hoped that they will
do so. A man who will kill quail
under the circumstances is meaner
than the man who stole the proverbial
pennies and should be summary
dealt with.

Stone Blind.

1t is a popularity of the populists
that they cannot recognize defeat.
They claim they are stronger than
ever, and yet they are 50 weak that
even the democrats do not either fear
or admire them, and hereafter they
must stand without encouragement
from the democrats, without hope of
office, for clean populistic principles,
with the disadvantage of failure to
realize on a single hope in the last
campaign clinging to them. And
there is n disadvantage greater
still than all others, and that is their
failures to give either clean or wise
administrations when trusted with
power. They were failures in North
Dakota, Colorado, Kansas and South
Carolina. Failures everywhere

The capture of Port Arthur, the
stoutest of Chinese strongholds,
breaks the back of China. 1t was
well fortified, almost impregnable
from it's natural position, il it had
been properly defended. Defended
by a mob of semi barbarians, SO far
as all modern military methods and
equipment are concerned, it fell, and
with it fell all the vast Colossus of
the semi barbaric empire, before the
resistless onset of that young and
vigorous civilization that Japan has
drunk into all her veins from her
patient schooling in the ways of
modern progress. Nothing can now
obstruct the victorious march to
Pekin. She can dictate her own
terms of peace over the PROSTATE
body of her humbled foe. That she
will demand a big indemnity for the
past is certain. 1t is more than prob
able she will require effectual guaran-
tees for the future. She will not
easily surrender the formidable stra-
tegic positions she has conquered
which hold the gates of China. Mo-
is it easy to see who is to say her
nay whatever demands she makes.
For Japan has suddenly risen to the
rank of one of the great military and
naval powers of the world. She has
vindicated her claims to an equality,
at least in the international politics of
the Orient, with the western powers
which were but lately patronizing
her with such gracious condescension.
Hereafter she will have something to
say in the settlement of Oriental
questions, and will have to be taken
into the councils Of Great Britain,
Russia, France and other powers
which have heretofore assumed the
right to consider only their own in
terests in the field of Oriental diplo-
macy. She has put Corea on the
track of modern progress. She may
want to take China under her tute-
lage and lead her out of the night of
the dark ages into the broad light of
the nineteenth century.-Pioneer

Today is the n day of the year
that has been set apart as a day of
thanksgiving for the blessings both
corporal and spiritual which we may
have received during the past year.
This day has also another use but
whether it was so originally intended
we do not know, it is the means of
bringing US together for a day of
good cheer and the uniting of fam
lilies, for the day at least, that might
otherwise become estranged. But
while we are enjoying ourselves, let
us not forget those that are even
poorer than ourselves and endeavor
to make the day one to cause them
to be thankful and bless the day of
Thanksgiving.

Their Daily Diet.

The innate tendency of populist
theories to breed disloyalty is shown
by the remarks made by one S. Yves
senbergh, of Duluth, at the meeting
at Cation College on Tuesday. After
making the usual charges of corrup-
ton against everybody outside the
Jpopulist party, he remarked that he
sometimes thought he had made a
mistake in opposing the rebellion,
for Jefferson Davis, in his widest
dreams, could not have gotten the
country into a worse condition than
the two old parties under the domi-
nation of monopoly" As Nh. Owen,
the populist candidate for governor,
following Gov. Atgeld, placed him
self upon the reasonable states rights
platform occupied by jeff Davis
more than thirty years ago, it is not
strange that one Of his followers
should be found regretting that he
did not cast his fortu:es with the
southern rcbels. This kind of stuff
IS a~anseating in this day and age

The Tax Levy.

The old question as to the relations
of the village and the township of
Webster has assumed a new aspect.
Since the incorporation of Webster
village in 1885, the residents thereof
have paid no township tax whatever
but Notwithstanding, the legal voters
or so many as desired, voted for
township officers and at town meet
ings. During this time the village
has been represented on the board of
supervisors and has been assessed by
the township assessor but the town
ship paid the bills.
The present board of supervisors
consists OF three members who are
Mr.. Jas. McFadden, chairman: Mr..
}. r. Phillips and Fred w. Harris.
This board was dissatisfied with the
condition of affairs and engaged Mr..
Josephus Alley to act as township
attorney and carry the matter before
Judge Campbell for settlement. In
due time a decision was rendered by
Judge Campbell declaring the village
of Webster a part of Webster town
ship.
AT the annual town meeting last
spring, a levy of five mills was made
Tor general purposes and the resi-
dents of the village moved and voted
for lt-perfectly proper too, as here
tofore the tax had not been extended
over the village. In 1898, the val
uation fer the whole township outside
the village was s99,45l.OO and the
tax s496.74; in 1894, the valuation
for the whole township $3iOS9O.OO
and the tax will be Sl554. 45. The
above figures do not include the six
miles of railway in the township
which would bring the total up to
SiG14.45. This is far in excess of
the amount necessary for the town.

Fulfilled It's Destiny.

On the whole the populist party
cast o votes at the last election
than at any time previously, but
their vote is so widely scattered over
the whole country that they have
elected fewer officers than for Sc ggral
years. The pops can now take their
place in history with roller skates,

o~iists, grangers, f~ree-soilers, and the

U. men accused of tarin wrecking

the entire morning was devoted tn
the testimony of George B. Katzen-
stein, Presiden. of the Citizens Pro-
tective Association, formed at Sacra-

told of several conferences with
Knox, chairman of the mediation
committee, bnt could give no testi-
mony prejudicial to defendants. j.

leading up to the sending out of the
train that was wrecked. He told of
the riotous actions of the strikers.
Ee was badly tangled on coss-
examination, and was forced to adj
nit that he had told various people
he expected to get $500 if he testified
in a certain way prejudicial to the
strikers.

THE RENO TRAGEDY.
Discoveries at tie Scene Of Tie
Shooting.

The Reno papers do not have much
to say regarding the recent tragedy
but an Examiner reporter writes the
/, following as the result of his investi-
CATION:
One of the shots fired by Mrs.
Hartley pierced pict ire in the
north corner of the front room,
1t entered the picture at point
seventeen inches from the floor,
ranging downward at an angle that
caused the bullet to strike the base
board six feet beyond the easel, at a
| point seven inches above the floor,
| thereby showing a downward range
| of ten inches in six feet.
If the shot WAS fired close to the
easel the woman was doubtless down
on her knees or lying on the floor
! when she pulled the trigger, which
circumstance might indicate there
was struggle.
The theory that there was scuf-
fie is corroborated by discovery this
afternoon. A collar-button which
was missing from the dead man s
shirt which was found on the floor
near a chair in which it is supposed
Foley sat after he entered the studio.
If the defense is to be self defense
both the collar button and the prox-
unity of the bullet-hole to the floor
will be used to uphold it.
Dr. Phillips, who was in his office
Just under the studio when the fatal
shots were fired, testified at the in
quest that he heard something like a
body fall heavily to the floor about
the time of the tragedy. Until the
woman speaks it will not be known
what caused the noise,
There is great deal of gossip
about the character of Mrs. Hartly,
and there are many who denounce
her as an adventures. 1t is said
that some of the best people in Reno
| accepted her as a woman of good
character, and everybody says that
her demeanor was that of cultured
lady.

NAVAL VICTORY FOR JAPAN.
She Sinks Il Chinese Man-Of- w az
and Two Cruisers.

Shanghai, July 31.-At 10 p. m.
news reached here of desperate
battle between the fleets of China
and Japan, in which the Chinese
were defeated and the Chen Yusn,
the largest battleship but one in the
Chinese service, was sunk and two
other large vessels, said to be first
class cruisers were captured or de-
stroyed. The battle was holly con-
tested, but the Japanese appear to
have handled their guns, ships and
torpedoes with more skill than the
Chinese, The Chinese fleet engaged
carried nearly thousand men and q
large number are reported killed or
drowned.
A later dispatch says few if any of
the Chinese engaged in the battle es-
capped. Two German officers in COM
mand of the Chen Yuen are reported
to have met death with the crowd.

OPPOSITION TO PULLMAN.
: NeT Company Arranging TO
Build Cars.

Chicago, July 30.-The Record
publishes the following:
If the negotiations now pending
are carried to a successful termina-
nation, the striking car builders at
Pullman will quit the model town"
in body and become the employees
of a powerful new corporation organ
lied for the manufacture of palace
and freight cars and day coaches.
For more than a week secret COM
munications have been passing be-
tween the agent of the corporation in
Chicago and the Strikers Central
Committee. The offer to the men is
IN writing, signed by man of prom
inence and wealth in the business
circles of the city. The names of
number of capitalists who are con-
nected with the e. terprises are also
mentioned to give the communication
greater weight.
Thus far the deliberations OF the
Central Committee and their replies
to the advances made by the corpora
ton have been kept wholly secret,
but it is known that every member is
heartily in favor of the change if
reasonable terms can be agreed upon,
As soon as the negotiations have
reached a more definite basis the
matter will be laid before the body
of the strikers for their sanction and
approval.
