has recently erected a cottage
upon a pleasant site, and we un-
derstand other improvements are
contemplated by other enthusiast
tic admirers of the charming
scenery at this point, which is
especially frequented and enjoyed
by campers, and those who pre-
fer tent life to any "pent-up,
four-square walls" And alto
gether the head of the Lake, be-
ing the nearest point to the citi-
zens of Bradford, can hardly fail
to enjoy popularity fully equal
to that realized by any other To-
cality upon this beautiful sheet
of water.
There is every reason to believe
that as the attractions of Lake
Morey become better known, it is
destined to become a favorite
summer resort, in the not distant
future. 1t is especially desirable
to that large and increasing class
of tourists of moderate means,
who desire quiet and retirement
and restful recreation. Its crys-
tai waters are we'll stocked with
a variety of fish, while small
game is quite abundant in the
adjoining forests. -Four steam
erS now ply on the lake, and its
beautiful cottages are owned and
occupied by cultured and refined
people, representing the different
professions, and by prosperous
business men. 1t is easier of &C
cess to populous central New
England than most other resorts.
Mosquitoes are almost unknown
and pure, cold. copious springs,
ranging from Al to As degrees
are abundant. A gentleman in
forms me that two weeks stay
wholly relieved him of severe
asthmatic difficulty. 1t is a nat
ural sanitarium. "The groves
were Goods first temples"
There is a healing balm in the
mountain air that quickens and
renews the vital energies. Here
the Care-worn man of business
can repose on the bosom of ma
ture, can enjoy the beauties of
water and forest, field and noun
tain; can inhale the bracing air
laden with the resinous odors of
the pine, can listen to the sooth-
ing murmurs of relapsing waves,
or the wind organ whispering
among the pines.
'And thus the sick man on his bed,
The toiler to his task-work bound,
Behold their prison walls out-spread,
Their clipped horizon widen round"
distance lends enchantment
to the view" and thousands of
Americans yearly visit Europe to
behold the far-famed scenery of
Switzerland and Italy. Some of
these globe trotters who have So
journed at Lake Morey, acknowl-
edge that its charm of sylvan and
rural beauty are unsurpassed.
The pleasures of foreign travel
are only for the wealthy few;
then let us duly appreciate and
enjoy the glorious traditions, and
beautiful scenes of our own free
native land.
81 know not how in other lands
The changing seasons come and go,
What splendors fall on Syrian sands,
What purple lights on Alpine snow;
Nor how the pomp of sunrise waits
On Venice at her watery gates.
Yet on LIES journey he who floats,
Is one with him who rows or sails
And he who wanders widest lifts
No more of beauties jealous vail,
Than he who from his doorway sees
The miracle of flowers a nd trees,
Feels the warm orient in the MONDAY air
And from cloud minarets hears
The sunset call of prayer"
Welcome visiting friends.

M,LAURIN FOR GOVERNOR.
mississippi Democrats Select
Their Candidates.

JACKSON, Miss, Aug. 1.-The Dem
ocratic convention was called to order
at 1910 p. m. today by Chairman Booth.
Booth he suggested the name of Mr..
Longstreet, of Grenada, for temporary
chairman, and he was elected by accla-
nation. In the afternoon Senator
George was chosen permanent chair
man amid great enthusiasm. The con-
vention then went to work on the ticket
without delay. Hon. J. H. McLaurin
was unanimously nominated for gov
ernor. The first ballot for lieutenant
governor resulted in the nomination of
Hon. j. H. Jones. The nomination of
j. L. Power. of Kinds, a local favor
lite, for secretary of state on the first
ballot, brought forth another noisy
demonstration. Col. w. D. Holder
was nominated for auditor, and A. o.
May, of Simpson, for treasurer, after
which a recess until p. m. was taken.
At the evening session there was a
fight on the nomination of attorney
general, the candidates being W. N.
Nash, Frank Johnson, Walter T. Rot
ter and S. S. Hudson. Seven ballots
were taken without result. Incorpor-
ated in the report of the committee on
resolutions were the resolutions adopt
ed at yesterdays convention of the
silver Democrats of Missouri at Pertle
Springs, and they were adopted as the
declarations of the Mississippi conyen-
ton. The convention then adjourned
until tomorrow.

this has been made in each city:
in each case, also, we are convinced,
to the disgust of the people of that
city, and ITO the infinite amusement
and contempt of outsiders. We
think it is high time to quit furnish
ing sport for others.
The G o b e, for it's part, believes
that the officials will do their best
to make the census fair in beth
cities. 1t does not believe that either
Of them is, as has been asserted. in
the control of idiots, liars or thieves.
The taking of the census and the
final scrutiny and correction of the
lists is in charge of officers of the
state. We think that they are men
who intend to have an honest count
and would not permit a debauch of
fraudulent registration before their
very eyes. And the G l o b is verv
positively of the opinion that both
cities ought to act like grown men
about it, and not like spoiled chill
dren. The census squabble is a.
chestnut; ut is passee. Now that one
paper in each city has been guilty of
census fake, and both cities have
suffered more or less injury thereby
in the minds of those who had
thought that we had got out of pima
fores up here in Minnesota, sensible
people hope that the attempt to
make a sensation out of the census
and indiscriminate charges connect
ed with it has come to an end.

the ranks of anarchy, those in des-
perate revolt against society, would
he recruited. So thought Emma
Goldman, the professional anarchist,
and she went among them to preach
her gospel of humiliation. And they
drove her from their meetings, and
set guards at the doors that she
might not get surreptitious entrance.
Whereupon Emma retired in good
order and offended dignity, to Justus
Schwab's saloon, whence she sent
word that, if the girls would recon-
slider their rash decision, she would
be willing to overlook the indignities
and address them on her and
Schwab's way of salvation. And the
girls would not reconsider. One of
them said, with much spirit: EN-
ma Goldman may speak as much as
she likes to anarchists, but she won't
do for working girls though she does
wear gold-rimmed eyeglasses. The
idea! What does she take us for?"
The sensible girls of the sweat-shops
thus teach a lesson that presumably
sensible men all over the country
may we'll take to heart They, at
least, did not fall easy prey to the
professional agitator, alarmist and
demagogue.

NOT IN THE SOUTH.

We call attention to the fact that
the incipient race war, existing in
the vicinity of Spring Valley, Illinois,
does not occur in a. Southern state,
and cannot be attributed to the de-
sire of Southern people to Cypress
the negro and drive him out of the
community. 1t has its origin in a
violent disagreement between the
different races employed in the ILL
nois coal mines. The negroes and
the Italians there have a special
hatred for each other, and the out
RACES which are reported by the col
ored miners and their families have
aroused and excited the negroes in
other parts of the state so that
trouble is threatened and feared.
The outbreak might easily assume
formidable and dangerous proper
tons, but it is believed that the local
authorities will prove competent to
deal with it and to restore order.
The point to be noted in the inter-
est of fair play is that this disturb
ance has occurred in a Northern
state, and that the race feeling which
has grown out of it is quite as gen.
eral and as intense as would have
been created anywhere in the South.
1t is an old moral, but one well worth
pointing anew, inasmuch as every
such incident happening in the states
which once held the negro in slavery
is interpreted by partisan spirit as
of deliberate intention, on the part
of the ruling white race, to exclude
the negro from political and civil
rights. The fact is, of course, that
the race feeling is not limited by
any political boundary line. Where
it is once appealed to, it spreads rap
idly and acquires an intensity that
leads speedily to acts of violence.
This is altogether independent of the
political status of the negro or his
numbers or position in the COM
munity. While every such incident
is deplored deeply by all right-think-
ing people, it is only fair to call at
tention to the fact that race feeling
is not confined to any section of the
country, and that, all things con-
sidered, there is less exhibition of it,
and less trouble growing out of it
in the Southern states than would
probably be developed in any other
part Of the country where the same
conditions of population prevail that
exist in the South

have been spared the panic of 1893,
whose cost surpasses the power Of
the imagination to estimate. There
would have been no gold reserve to
protect, no greenbacks to draw gold
from the treasury, no silver notes to
impair and shatter confidence, and
the wave that started in Australia
and the Argentines would have been
a harmless ripple by the time it had
reached our shores.
Or, supposing the surplus had not
been applied to debt reduction, but
turned into industrial accessories.
We could now have a twenty-foot
waterway from Duluth to tide water
with the use of a hundred of the
millions of this surplus. The nation
could have put another hundred and
a quarter millions into the construc-
ton of the isthmian canal, building
and owning it itself. Out of what
was left it could have spanned the
continent with double-track rail-
way at $4,000 a mile, and had, after
all this, over half of the fund left.
With this it could have made the
entire telegraph system of the coun-
try, including the ocean cables, pub
lie property, united to the postal
service. 1t could also have absorbed
and nationalized the telephone sys-
tenn of the nation, with all it's water,
with less than half of the remainder.
After accomplishing all this, had it
been desirable, there would have re-
manned a couple Of hundred millions
for providing every town of 5000
population and upward with a suit
able public building for a postoffice
and other offices of the government
All this might not have been done,
but all of it could have been done, had
the people so willed it, and had they
not committed the stupendously ex-
pensive folly Of again putting the
administration of the national af-
fairs in the hands of a party so in
sanely welded to an insane policy
as to drive it to sustain it by in
creasing expenses and reducing in
come until surplus was changed into
deficit.

YACHTING BY MOONLIGHT.
Second Attempt Proves Successful
and Very Enjoyable.

Last night took place the second
moonlight review of the White Bear
Yacht club. The moon shone in the
agreeable way it often has, and there
was a pleasant siX-mile breeze. The
breeze was justly considered ia
vorable feature, for otherwise the
evolutions of the review would have
been made by oar. Evoluting yachts
under full oars do not look we'll in
the moonlight. There is an absence
of the silent, shadowy movements
which are so poetic. There is no
gentle ripple at the bows. The rip
pie is all at the other end, and it is
by no means gentle. Evolutions
without a wind took place at the
first review and were not satisfac-
tory. Therefore was it that when
Commodore Deans Aurelia led twen-
ty handsome yachts away from the
Lake Shore dock last evening all the
men and women in the crowded
boats were glad that the weather

STRUCK BY A CAR,
But the Horse Was Sensible and

neither thrown out nor injured but one
wheel was taken off his buggy and an
other wheel was visibly impaired.
Beechman had been inspecting the base
ball score in the window of Foleys

that Minneapolis was extremely slow,
he jumped into his buggy and ignored
an approaching car from the Flour
City. When the shock followed a mo-

THE IOWA CONVENTION.

The Democratic convention in Iowa
Is, to our way of thinking, more sig
niffcant than anything since the con-
vention in Kentucky, and carries
with it a lesson which even that
did not bear. For the fight in the
latter state was a bitter one The
advocates Of honest money won only
by a supreme effort; and then their
victory was claimed as conse-
quence in part of the influence of the
administration. Nothing of the kind
happened in Iowa. 1t is a state in
which, in the past, financial heresy
has not wanted supporters. 1t is
the state Of Weaver, and of one-time
leaning to greenbackism. 1t is a
state in which leading Democrat
felt inspired, only a little time ago,
to come before the public with an
interview which could be construed
only as an endeavor to placate or
compromise with the friends of cheap
the cabinet. There was no one on
the ground to represent the admin
istration. The people, uninf1uenced
by outside forces, chose their own
delegates and expressed their own
opinions. There were no local office
holders, like those in the states sery-
ice in Illinois and Missouri, to
dragon the convention into a DO
sitiOn that it would have avoided
together, freely its opinions were ex-
pressed, and freely its conclusion
reached. That conclusion is as de-
cided a victory for sound money in
Iowa as was won in Kentucky.
The platform adopted is satisfac-
tory. 1t reaffirms the financial plank
adopted by the national convention
in 1892; with such emphasis on the
necessity of maintaining the equality
of value of all our forms of money
that its meaning cannot be mistak-
en-. Nor are we left to conjecture.
For the ardent free silverites. not
content with it, brought in their
minority report and were voted down
in the convention by a majority so
decisive as to leave no room for
question. 1t was a straight fight for
sound finance, by the people them
selves, and it won. 1t shows what
the Democrats Of that state think on
the financial question; and their
thought is the thought of every
Northern state east of the Rocky
mountain region. 1t is useless to dis
guise the fact that the free silver
agitation has had it's day. 1t is still
kept alive by the men who need
it as their chief political stock-in-
trade, but the people have done with
it. We doubt if any Democratic con-
vention from this time on in any
state of the North will declare itself
for free silver. This is wise policy.
The party whose prospects are
frightening daily, which needs but
to stand by its record and point to
results achieved in order to win.
must not be led down to defeat by
embracing an issue that is no part.
properly speaking, of the Democratic
system. The Iowa Democrats have
done the wise and courageous thing.
They are in favor of bimetallism. and
so declare themselves They are
against silver recommendation and
against ANYTHING that would reduce
