NATURAL GAS WELL.
The New Hole Down $50 Feet-More
Wells Protected.

H. L. Driver, the natural gas king,
came in from the wells again last night
and reports that the new well in course
of boring is down already to a depth of
$50 feet and work progressing finely. Mr..
Driver WILL in the coarse of this year,
drive at least fifteen wells, SO 1t is rumor
ed. This action will be necessary in order
to furnish all the gas which will be re-
quired for the needs of the city. Already
the demand is growing and at least three
hundred families ere using it for heating
and lighting. OF course in the summer
time the gas is not appreciated as it is
in winter when the weather is cold. But
for cooking it is unsurpassed. When the
meal is completed all that has to be done
is 10 turn off the gas and the fire is out.
In winter time the best and most econom-
ical way to use natural gas is to fill a
crate with broken fire brick. The jet
is underneath, of course. After the gas
has burned for time, the brick becomes
redhot and then the flame is turned off.
The brick will remain at a red heat for
hours and supply all warmth necessary
at no expense at all. W hen they cool
off the fire is lighted again and the per-
Torrance repeated. The gas is perfectly
safe and is not as deadly as the fuel gas
manufactured for use from coal.

To the Editor
Your paper Is now the great reform
paper of the Northwest. This is the
most opportune time to strike our enc
mics, the old parties; a great many citi-
zens see now how they have been de-
ceived by their cunning and sophistry
these many years.
If this great reform movement is con-
Quoted with liberalism we will be able to
down the enemy-that lis the money
power in the East and their European
allies. The would-be slave-masters of
free men are the ruling classes of Eu-
rope, the enemies of liberty and repub-
lies.
The fathers of this country, in 1776,
drove the ruling classes of England so
they were willing for a time to take their
hands off this country. But, alas! the
words Of our Patriot Lincoln have proved
true. The wealthy men of this country
and of Europe haye Joined unholy hands
to destroy the prosperity of the masses
of our people by forcing a single gold
standard upon us.
Look at the ruin Of the Indies, once
the richest isles Of the sea. Look at

What a nice dish it would make to
serve up to the reader of this paper the
names of all parties who own property
in Minneapolis that is rented for houses
of prostitution. Verify, some of the
leaders of society may we'll blush for
the means by which their livelihood is
secured, for it would be no difficult task
to produce the evidence since we have it
all, and an unsavory mess it is, too.
Louis F. Menage made an assignment
to a company of which McGill's presi-
dent. This is strange coincidence, in
view of the fact that we had reason to
believe that our exposure of the Guaran-
ty Loan concern, of which Menage was
president, was, originally, at the in
stance of McGill, as We supposed. Still
we may have been in error, in view of the
fact that McGill never after gave any
countenance or support to those express
sions.
In view of the fact that this Trust COM
pany has recently suspended payment
and has only resumed by suffrance, it
would be we'll for the court to appoint a
receiver in it's place if possible, or to ex-
act a sufficient bond.
We notice that the assignment of one

the latter with alleged assets of $4,000

Some of our banker friends are getting
a little riled, and we fear they will be
still more SO ere we get done with them
unless they mend their ways, for it isn't
in accord with the laws of nature for
them to go on forever with their mean
ness, and if they don't have a care some
one will have cause to regret their action
or inaction.
Judge Crosby, of the First district
court, rendered decision that where
the railroad companies have sold stump
age the same shall be taxed, hence by
this ruling about all the railroad lands
in the state can be taxed, and now show
ing that the fight made is having its eff
feet you should expect that before next
spring every auditor in the state will
be going for the railroads hammer and
tongs, for railroad lands have got to be
taxed and they will be.
The financial situation is far from
easy, though the daily papers try to
make the reverse appear, yet they can't
fool many and the lame ducks are falling
off one by one. When they are all laid
away and miracle performed on Mime
apolis by pounding into goodly part of
her busintess men a grain of integrity
and sagacity, you can look for little
better times therein, but we fear there
will have to be large number of first
class funerals in order that the devil
may take his imps to himself ere any
real good con result.
In the meantime it were well to have a
care where you put your money.

Many of the contributions to the

must insist that they be made shorter.
Most of them could be condensed into
GOO words. II this is done it will en-
able the REPREsENTATIvE to print
more and a greater variety. Here
after the shorter letters will be
given preference. Write them on one
side of the paper only. II written on
both sides they will not be printed un-
: der any circumstances.
Write them plainly and with ink.
Do not crowd the lines closely to-
gether. A plainly written letter con-
fOrmingto these rules will stand by far
the best chance to be printed.
Within certain proper limitations
we admit the widest liberty Of thought
and expression upon the part of our
correspondents, while we do not hold
ourselves responsible for any views
which may be put forth.
The Forum. as its name implies, is a
sort Of debating school, for the discus
sion Of the important questions OF the

avoid abusive personalities and to
keep clear OF the shoreless and bottom

power that it had at the time he loaned
it? Is it just and honest for a govern

lie this government agency of COM

No; to be just and honest should be
