Preacher In q Chain Gang.

Henry G. Worley, the famous moon
sinner, nearly two years ago turned
against his fellows in Murray county,
Ga, and was slain by them. Among
those prominent in informing upon the
murderers of the moonshiner was Rev.
j. S. Hooker. His neighbors, discover
ing that he was an informer, visited his
house one night, took him and his son
out and gave them $50 lashes each, with
a warning to leave the county forever.
Hooker took his family to Atlanta.
There his wife, who was hard work
ing woman, took boarders. Among the
boarders was fair widow with whom
the preacher eloped after few days and
wandered back to the neighborhood
whence he came. There he was arrested,
charged with violating the state liquor
law, for which he was convicted and
sentenced to IL months on the chain
gang. This sentence he began to serve
out few days since. New York World.

THE REPUBLICAN POLICY.

In the dark days which followed the
free trade triumph of 1892, no man in
this country stood more firmly by the
policy of protection than Gov. Nc
Kinley. When it looked as though
the country had turned its back upon
protection forever, he defended it,
and declared that if the country pros
pered it must be because Of it's princi-
piles. Time has shown that he was
correct, and while he has at no time
declared that it was the policy which
the Republican party must follow, he
has at all times advocated it as a
principle which the party would do
well to stand by. In his speech at
Springfield the other day at the open
ing of the Ohio campaign, he congrat-
ulated the party on its ability to
make effective whatever policy it
might see fit to adopt next year. One
of the significant passages in his ad-
dress was as follows:

less of our principles in the hour of
triumph. We chung to them through

THE farmers of Blue Earth count

THE farmers of Blue Earth county
can feel proud of the fact that this
county took the second premium at
the state fair on county exhibit. The
competition in this line was strong,
and not as much attention was paid in
this county to the question as might
have been. Mile Lac county took
the first premium, but we are in
formed by Gen. Baker, who re-
turned from the fair today, that the
premium went to that county more
upon the arrangement of the display,
which was without question the finest,
while that Of Blue Earth was the
equal in merit to anything on the
grounds. This being the case the
people Of this county cannot complain,
but can feel that they stand among
the foremost aagriculturally of the
counties of the state.

DOWN in Ohio the Populists de-
mand the abolition Of national banks,
which they denounce as centers of
bloated wealth. 1t is said that one
fourth of all the national bank shares
are held by 1861 women, many of
whom are widows, and the little in

stock is all they have for their sup

sweeping and significant as IL was. Is
but the forerunner of greater VIC
tory to be won this year and next:
Until these contests are fought and
won these great principles OF ours
warmly cherished as they may be by
the American people, are still to be
realized and voiced in legislation and
administration. The mighty victor
les of the past will serve but little
purpose if they are not supplemented
by continued victories and finally by
conclusive national triumph in 1896,
without which Republican policies,
principles, and measures will be I'M
possible of realization.
And the party will stand on those
principles in its hour of triumph, 9TH
erwise it's success will be short lived.
1t is the worry of the Democracy that
the temperance of the Republican
party into national control, will be fol-
lowed by the reenactment OF the NC
Kinley law of 1890. They would have
people believe that it would be restor-
ed line for line. But anyman who US
es any judgment knows that nothing
of the kind will be done. If left solely
to him Gov. Mckinley would not re-
store the law without making great
changes. No tariff law is perfect, and
no man better understood the defects
of the Mckinley law than Gov. Nc
Kinley himself. Seven years will have
elapsed when the Republicans are re-
stored to power, if they triumph next
year as they no doubt will, from the
time the Mckinley law was enacted,
and conditions have greatly changed
since then, and any bill which the Re-
publicans would enact will be drawn
to meet those conditions. The one
point, however, about any tariff
law which the Republican party may
enact is, that it will properly protect
the industries of this country. There
will be nothing in it that will make
conditions or life harder for any man,
woman or child in the country, but
it's aim will be to shape the economic
policy that life will be easier for
them. 1t will recognize the fact that
so much money will have to be raised
for the support of the government,
and duties will be so placed that they
will best protect American labor, and
give it the largest possible returns on
it's daily toll. This may not suit the
free trade leaders and photographers,
but it will meet the approval of the
people.

SALVATION ARMY COLONY.
General Booth Anxious to Secure a Larg.
Grant of Land.

-
Grant of Land.
A number of Salvation Army dele
gates from the army farm in England
have returned to Quebec from the North
west Territories, where they have been
spying out the land, with the object of
selecting block of 10000 acres or so
whereon to establish a Salvation Army
colony. They have seen many available
districts, but prefer a location for which
they are applying in Alberta.
1t is very unlikely that their request
will be granted, and the promoters of
the scheme will probably turn their at
tention now to the western states.
General Booth met the governor gen.
eral and members of his cabinet in
Ottawa last winter and propounded his
scheme, which, he was subsequently
given to understand, did not commend
itself favorably to the government. The
latter is willing to accord its usual
homestead grants of free land to indi-
vidual settlers from the army farm in
England, but will not recognize the
paternal character of the directors of the
enterprise to the extent demanded by the
general, who contemplated grant from
the government to the Salvation Army,
or to himself as it's head, of a large
block of territory, to be apportioned by
the army among graduates of its Eng
lish farm, according to it's idea Of their
individual capacities. Nothing daunted,
however, the general sent out his dele
gates to select the land. There is little
chance of it being secured by them now
that it is selected, and they threaten to
make their next attempt in the United
States New York Sun.

HE FOUGHT AN EAGLE.
Account of a Desperate Struggle Betwee
ME-. Raut and a Baldhead.

Account of Desperate Struggle Between
ME-. Raut and Baldhead.
During the summer there have been
seen by the inhabitants living near Syl-
van Beach two very large bald eagles.
One day last week as Sherman Raut
was crossing field near the creek he
suddenly came upon the pair of eagles
not more than 1870 feet away. He was
carrying in his hand a small package
and raised it, expecting to SEQ them fly
away, but what was his surprise when
one of them came toward him. Not
having any weapon with him, Raut ran
for the nearest fence and was none too
soon in securing board with which to
defend himself.
A desperate battle followed, in which
it seemed for time that the eagle
would come off victorious. Raut finally
succeeded in giving the eagle severe
blow on the wing, which crippled him,
and with several more blows Of the
board the eagle was stunned. Raut was
considerably fatigued by the struggle,
and after resting few minutes carried
the eagle home and put it in large
dry goods box. 1t was not dead, but
disabled, and he took good care of it
and tried very hard to keep it alive, but
it was too badly injured and died after
few days. The eagle measured from
tip to tip seven feet, and it's talons were
fully two inches long end sharp as nee
dies.
Raut says it has been his experience
to be attacked by mad bull, but Of the
two he would rather defend himself
from the horned beast than the ugly
eagle. Utica Herald.

WANTED, GOOD WATER.

One of the matters which the clty
council should take hold Of at its next
meeting and treat in business ike
manner, is the question Of getting a
supply of pure water for the residents
of Bunker and Agency Hills. The
residents in that portion of the city
are entitled to some little considera-
ton at least. They are residents
within the city limits, pay taxes up
on their property into the city treas
ury and are entitled to as good ana
fair treatment as any other portion OF
the city.
Just now our friends upon the hills
are in sore need. The wells at their
homes have gone dry and they are
without water, except as it is hauled
from a distance to supply their needs.
This is not matter of the past few
weeks. but has extended back over
several months, and in spite of all the
appeals that have been made, there
has as yet been nothing practical re-
sorted to, to relieve the dire distress
which has been forced upon these peo-
ple. The council seems willing to
vote money for almost everything
else that is called for, but this one
thing, and why it should continue to
hesitate in this matter is beyond COM
prehension.
If the money which was invested IN
the steam roller, which has not been
of any use to the city since it was
purchased, had been turned into this
channel it would have gone long
way toward securing the relief wanted.
The city engineer, and others who
are competent to speak upon this mat
ter, say that both of these hills can
be supplied by the best of water from
a we'll on Bunker Hill, and that it can
be cheaply piped across Glenwood
avenue to Agency Hill. 1t is also
stated that we'll can be put down
for ABOUT 1855, which will furnish
enough water for all the territory up
on the two hills. The residents of
Bunker Hill have already raised $40O
by subscription which they will do
nate for this purpose, if the city will
go ahead, land it seems as though every
interest of justice and humanity
would urge upon the council the neces'
sity of taking hold of the question at
once and relieve the distress as quick
Iy as possible.
If a good water supply was furnish.
ed for these hills they would make
one of the most desirable resident
portions of the city. Lots are cheap
there and the wOrkingman of small
means can easily get himself good
comfortable home, and the more
homes that can be built there, the
greater will our city thrive. But
these homes are valueless without a
good water supply. Therefore every
thing possible should be done to make
it desirable location in this respect,
TO say nothing of the matter of
health.
Bad as West Mankato may have
needed water, nothing like the dis
tress for it stared them in the face
As is the case on the hills. Yet the
council responded quickly to the call
for the extension of the water mains
at a heavy expense, Why does it
hesitate in a case that should appeal
to the heart of every person. The
condition which exists there is burn
ing disgrace to the city and calls for
action of some kind at once. What
will be the response of the council?

The Inventor Get Fifty Gents.

In quaint old house at No. COO
Marshall street lives Frank o. Des
champs, who, although over seventy
years old, has been invcnting things
all his life. Mr.. Deschamps is as
active as q boy of twenty, lives al.
alone amidst his models and con-
trivanccs, cooks his own meals, acts
as his own k0usckccpcr, and is as
happy as the day is long. Mr.. Des-
champs's first invention of note was
the artificial leg. 1t was over fifty
years ago when Mr.. Dcschamps,
ther On apprentice, was asked by his
master to see what he could do for
foppish Frcnchman WHO lad lost a
leg. At that time only wooden pegs
were known, ard the Frcnchman was
dissatisfied with this by no means
elegan. substitute. In two days
young Deschamps had finished a
complete model of an artificial leg,
with every movement of the natural
limb duplicated. His master had it
patented, and it yielded him for
tune. Il got fifty cents out of it,
laughingly remarked Deschamps.
