A Prominent Guest.

"A prominent Guest.
From Wednesdays Daily.
A special train came in from Edge
mont this afternoon bringing to our
city Mr.. j. E. Searles, treasurer of the
American Sugar Refining Co., with a
capital Of $50, 100000, also director of
the Northern Pacific railway, besides
being interested in many other inter
ests of national reputation. He is ac-
companied by Mr.. Francis G. Cradle of
Omaha, G. j. Cradle of Crawford, Shar
rock & Cradle, F. NJ. vroman, Russell
Thorpe. DIR. Crist and A. H. Dining of
Edgemont. Mr.. Searles has been max
ing trip over the Northern Pacific
looking after business interests and he
came back over the new Burlington ex-
tension to Edgemont, where he is also
interested. Mr.. Searles is very enthu-
siastic over the prospects of the coun-
try in this immediate neighborhood.
On being interrogated as to the result
of the recent election and the political
and business situation generally, he
said: Business will shortly be better.
Things will move along slowly until the
Fourth of March, when all danger of
democratic free trade legislation is over
and the fifty fourth, republican con-
gress takes its seat, when an era of
prosperity will commence only equaled
by the times just after the war. The
people showed by their votes that they
were afraid of the innovations and new
ideas advanced by democratic states.

congressional fiasco. Mr.. Wilson and

thirty years record of the re-
publican party and the prosperity of
the country under protective IDEAS"

Something of ~ sensation.

From Tuesdays Daily.
The Catholicon springs property and
the various mutations, changes. of
ownership, lawsuits, ETC.. involved in
it's history have added much in the
way of news and gossip to the people
of Hot Springs, and from present indi-
cations is keeping up it's reputation as
Il bone OF contention.
Last week II young lawyer by the
name of Merrick. representing the New
England Furniture company of ST.
Paul. Minn., came to Hot Springs and
in quiet manner began to make ar,
rangements for securing the furniture
used by the Catholicon company i'll
the running of their hotel and which
he claims WAS simply leased to them
by contract and which was not theirs
until payment had been made therefor.
There is balance due the furniture
company OF something over 5000. He
hired Il force of men to 30 to the hotel
yesterday and pack up the furniture
for shipment. a large furniture car
came in from Deatlwood on the passen-
ger train last evening and draynlen
were set to work to load it. They had
only got two loads in the car. when
attorney Chambers lNellar. who repre-
sents Rev. Hungerford and Others
interested. and who had his papers all
made out. put them into the hands of
the sheriff to serve. The furniture was
replevinejl. and Mr.. Merrck was arrest
ed on the charge of grand larceny and
put in custody of the sheriff MerricS
had his hearing at 10 o'clock this morn
ing before Judge Ridpath. waived
examination and was bound over in the
sum of 500. We understand this
afternoon that negotiations are being
entered into for 4; settlement of the
matter.
| The meetings still continue at the
| Baptist church and college chapel with
unabated interest. There were good
congregations out to both places and a
number of unsaved are seeking fol.
| light.
| Johnnie Richer likes kittens, and
somehow people have got to find it out
and of late the number of them has
been increasing every day about his
place, as people commenced to carry
them and dump them down near his
store. But his forbearance at last gave
out, for when they came in and wanted
to eat out of his granola bowl and
otherwise abuse his kindness, he loaded
up and carried about half dozen of
them to the Elkhorn depot as a present
to n. ID. Wood. Mr.. Wood tried to
ship them to Buffalo Gap, but they re-
turned. He then carried them to John
Gillespie's who in turn moved them
some where else and they have been
moved about so much lately they have
become bewildered and don't know
where they are at. We would suggest
to the marshal that he get rid of the
superfluous cats.

One year ago today there was revolution
In Hawaii-revolution that overturned a
savage monarchy. put an end to a dynasty
that was heathenish in its every inclina-
ton. dethroned a queen who by her muir
derous instincts and immoral conduct had
forfeited every right to rule a nation in
which decency had a place. Over the ruins
OF a rotten throne-buried deeply and for
ever-strong men have builded a govern
ment that has In its policy elements of en-
during strength. In the year which Ia 3
elapsed since the cornerstone Of honest
administration was laid at Honolulu the
new power has been beset by trials which
threatened its very existence, but Through
evil and good report 1t has maintained
itself in a manner highly creditable to the
Americans who constitute its backbone.
AS We Of the United States celebrate with
patriotic noise the anniversary of that
day when the forefathers declared the COL
onies to be free and Independent states, so
should Hawaii rejoice over its emancfpa-
ton from q sovereignty that had become
antolerabls to every civilized resident of
the islands. Hurrah for the Seventeenth
Of January!

Suffering, disaster and Arctic exploration

aomitable courage was, under the circum-
stances, Of but little avail. The record is
one Of which mankind has no need to be
ashamed, for 1t originated in a desire which
today Is strong as ever--to leave no consid-

and to discover. il 1t be possible the load

to try again.

who. In addition to his many other virtues.
Is Washingtonian, has formulated a plan
of attack which has met the approval of a
large number Of those who are fully COM
petent to judge. Just now he does not pro-
pose to reach the north pole nor do any
other very great thing, and the size Of his
proposed party is as modest and as sensible
as the other details of his plan. It is his
idea that a party Of ten men proceed in a
whaling vessel to q station on the shore
OF Ellesmere Land, In Jones' sound. and
there establish a base Of supplies. Thence
he proposes to explore an untrod region
by small parties for about fifteen months.
returning to a point where homeward
transportation can be secured. The entire
cost Is figured out to be $4,000. and 1t is a
tribute to the practical character Of the
plan, as well as a remarkable indication Of
the interest which exists In the subject,
that in the circular Mr.. Stein has just is
promised. The money Is being raised by
private subscription, and 1t Is expected that
the amount needed VIII be secured In time
for the party to leave this country in the
spring. Mr.. Stein points out in the circu-
lar that 1t Is entirely feasible to establish
a permanent station In this region. whence
parties can be sent out and by gradual ap-
proaches the zone Of the unknown region
can be reduced In extent and the line of
approach to the pole brought nearer and
rearer. Mr.. Stein thinks 1t probable that
locations could be selected for the stations
which would be in such favored situations
that the party could be sustained by the
hunting which might be available in the
neighborhood. Unless aerostatics shall
soon be successfully applied this genera
ton may not reach the northern axis of
the earth, but should success come to the
pedestrian explorer 1t will doubtless be
brought about by such approaches as Mr..
Stein believes in, and which his fellow
citizens sincerely hope will prove to be all
his decidedly practical fancy imagines they
are.

With persistence such as exists only when

Chicago is a great city. 1t has a great
