Helping q NeighbOr.

st. Clond JOurnal-Press: st. Cloud
citizens are subscribing literally to
the bonus fund to help Sank Rapids
secure that big paper mill. This is
the proper thing to do. The develod-
ment of the Sank Rapids water
power will be a good thing for both
places, and st. Cloud will receive it's
full share of the benefit. This mill, If
built, as now seems certain. will
much more than make up the loss of
the freight division of the Great
Northern. The ultimate prosperity
of this city depends upon the de-
velopments of it's granite quarries
and waterpower and if the railroads
will give us freight rates looking to
this end, they can remove their d.
vision headquarters to the moon,
for all it would harm St. Cloud.

covered wagon last week from
South Oak ota. where they have been
farming for several years. Mr.. HO-
gan informed us that he rented a
quarter section of land this year and
raised a good crop but it took every
bushel TO pay his rent, hired help,
etc. This has been the condition for
several years and he got tired Of it
at last and picked up what little he
had and left. lie will remain here
for the winter, having rented the
Higgins house. He is looking for
homestead land and wants to take
a claim in a timber country, as he is
thoroughly tired of the prairie. We
think he can find just what he wants
within 20 miles of ROvaltOn. Mr..
Hogan informs us that If he is sue
cessful in finding good land he will
send for six families, all relatives of
his wife. to come out here, as they
too have had enough OF South Da-
kOta.

ASpecial Election to- Decide on the

G.. N. Parker, n prominent business

been consuInating plans by which
he could, with Others. get control of
the water power property at that
place, as well as the electric light

The water power in that city has

were endea voring to break the con-
tract by which that power was sup

anxious that the water power
should b" employed in some bene-

the cooperation of some eastern
capitalists and now proposes to

A Novel Petition.

The Mile Laos Indians have Il con-
siderable amount of money coming
to them for annuities, but the com
mission has refused to pay them be-
fore they remove to White Earth.
Now the Indians are obtaining sig
natures of settlers to a petition
asking that the government pay the
money at Mile Laos. AS the gov
eminent does not seem inclined to
use force in removing the reds. the
payment of the money due will be
conceding in effect about what the
Indians ask. OF course. the Indians
will not be allowed to select lands
at Mile Laos, but the personal
ownership of land has not yet be-
come very attractive to the Indian.
The Milaca Times says: "The Mile
Laos Indians are circulating a petit
ton among the settlers at Mile Laos
lake asking that they be allowed to
stay there until they receive and
spend the payments claimed to he
due from the government. OF course
the distribution of several thousand
dollars among the Indians at the
lake would mean great deal OF
money put in circulation in this
county, but the Indians are not
noted for generous considera ton Of
the settlers, and NO doubt a selfish
motive prompts this petition. If the
Indians gain the written consent OF
the settlers to their staying on the
so-called reservation for any period
of time, it might give the Indians an
opportunity to stay overwhelmingly
and make their removal a matter Of
The remote future.'

decision in the cases brought by e. ].
Daniels against the Rock Island and the
Great Northern railways involving dis.

or moro roads which are less as whole
than the rates in force on lake traffic
carried under similar conditions in tho

stituent roads in such lines. The
decision sets forth that the law requires
regulation Of railroad charges according
to the ascortained rights Of persons and

lation of trade by enabling shippers
and communities to do business or to
put them on even terms with rivals

BROKE THROUGH THE.1cE.
II Team OF Horoeo With a
Load OF Logo at the Bottom
of the Rivers.

A team of horses hauling a lead III
iogs on the Mississippi broke
through the ice near the East side
mill at about u o'clock Saturday and
were drowned.
The team was driven by John
]Misbe, and was at work for the Pine
Tree company hauling whst are
called dead heads'' or water soaked
logs that had been tished OFT of the
river. They were hauling Il heavy
load, and when near the East side
mill the ice gave way, and both the
team and load sunk into about six
teen feet of water.
The teamster was afraid OF the ice
and would not ride on his load. AS
the ice broke he caught his horses by
the bits and tried to keep them
from going down. but the load was
so heavy that it dragged the horses
down and he was compelled to let
go or he taken down with them.
- A crew of men are at work this
afternoon trying to raise the sleds,
and as theload was not bound to the
sleds, it Is probable they will be able
to do 40 with graphing hooks.
The team belonged to the Cross
Lake Logging company, and $3.50
would be very fair price for them.
The loss of the horses will be abont
all as they do not anticipate any
difficulty in raising the sunken
rigging.
The ice is only about five inches
thick where the accident occurred,
and is unsafe for such Leavy loads.

THE ANSWER IS HERE
Lord Salisbury's Reply to Sec
rotary Olney Arrives In
Washington.
Members of the House Discuss
the Position of the Ven-
eZuelan Affair.
England Is Pursuing a Policy
of Delay in This lmpOr-
tant Matter.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.-Lord Sails
bury's reply to Secretary Olney's letter
requesting a final and definite state
ment Of Great Britain's purposes con-
corning Venezuela is in Washington.
having been delivered to Sir Julian
P;,uncefote, the British ambassador.
The answer was brought to Washing
ton by Donaldson, the special messenger
of the ambassy, who makes regular
trips to New York for the purpose of
carrying the official mail to and from
Washington. Donaldson received the
reply from the stewards OF the steam
ship Brittunllic on which it arrived at
New York at Q Il. III. He left im.ne-
diately for Washington. The greatest
interest cen1ers here rs to the nataI" of
the reply which Lord S. l.s::rry has
made to the American secretary OF
state Ambassador Paurcelotr said
that Lord Salisbury's letter would be
presented to Secretary Olrey in the
morning.
An Eyasivn Answer.
There was Il pretty general discussion
of Venezuelan affairs among the men,
bers Of the house during the day. The
general opinion among those who will
have the conduct Of foreign affairs in
charge in the house is that Lord Sails
bury's reply will be a diplomatic eva
sion Of the main issue; that it will be
couched in the friendly terms, and
while expressing willingness to arbi-
trate as to portion Of the disputed ter
ritory, will deny the right of the United
States to ask Great Britain to arbitrate
as to territory, the ownership Of which
Great Britain claims is hers beyond dis
pute. In other words, it is believed
that Great Britain's reply will tenn
porize with the subject and simply open
the way for further correspondence.
What England breads Most.
s'England breads unfavorable tariff
legislation" said a prominent Repub-
lican member, "she knows that the
first result of bitter anti English feel
ing would be retaliation upon her
through radical revision Of the tariff.
A tariff induced by hostility to Eng
land, growing out of England's en-
croachments in this hemisphere which
had aroused the resentment Of the
American people, would send 1000, OOO
Englishmen to bed without their sup
pers. Such material considerations
England never overlooks. The loss OF
our commerce stopped the war Of 1872
