SKETCHES BY M.QUAD

The Bear Got Waiioped.

The station agent at Hilltop station
had full grown black bear which had
been presented to him by hunter, and
the animal was chained to pole a few
yards from the building. There was an
iron ring at the end of the chain which
slid up and down the pole, and some
times bruin was on the platform at the
top and sometimes down on the ground.
The day that our train switched in at
Hilltop to wait for the east bound ex-
press he was walking around the pole,
and, as score Of us surrounded him,
he acted as if he wanted to get hold of
some one.
By and by the station agent came ont

Dinna ye hear that slogan, boy!
In another column your Uncle 10.
Chadderdon, the hero of many we'll
fought legal battle and Populistic
war of speech, challenges all Redwood
county lawyers, business men, county
officers, to meet him on the stump for
fun, money or marbles. Your Uncle
10 is the keynote of the campaign.
He warns up early on the eve of bat
tie; large drops of sweat roll down
his cheeks while he is in the thickest of
the oratorical fight, and he breathes
forth red hot chunks of moulten po-
litical logic that scatter the enemy
far and wide. Who will face him?

The down Eastern senators like
Hoar of Massachusetts,, Hale of Maine
ct al, are opposed to the resolutions
granting Cuban belligerency for the
apparent reason that good many i'm
porters of their States have CONNER
cial interests in Cuba and are having
their business cut down by reason of
the advanced stage of the resolutions.
Business men seeking to degrade
American patriotism for the private
reason of swelling their exchequers
are unworthy of being called business
men, much less Americans. The GA
zErTE hopes that the Senate will con-
cur in the house resolutions,that Presi.
dent Cleveland will sign them and that
immediate steps will be taken to stop
Weyler's career of bloodthirsty and
inhuman carnage in the fairest of the
West Indies.

The fact that Gov. Mckinley is re-
ported to be capturing all, or nearly
all the Southern delegates, does not
have great deal of effect. Politicians
are aware that the Southern delegate
is tricky and susceptible and is liable
to fly away from the pass of his in
structions or personal feelings after
he gets up to the convention. 1t is
fair to admit that Gov. McKinley's
boom is an excellent one just now, but
The GAZETTE ventures the prediction
that if he is not nominated on the
first ballot at St. Louis he will not be
nominated at all. It will be some
one else, and that some one else is
just as apt to be Senator Davis OF
Minnesota as Gov. Morton ct al. Sen
ator Davis has fewer enemies in the
Republican camp than any of the
statesmen we know of.

To THE EDITOR: In your last issue
it was announced that Andrew Stew
art and myself we're to meet Mcleod
and Patterson in joint discussion up
on the question, SHOULD the two old
parties pass out of existence 2"
l knew nothing of the debate, until
my attention was called to what The
GAZETTE said, Friday evening, the
very time the debate was to come off
three miles west of here. But, should
my Republican friends be eager for a
joint debate, I shall be happy to meet
at any time in the future and discuss
the following questions:
Resolved; That the Republicans of Red
wood county are great stock raisers.
Resolved That they are immense ION the
swear in attachment proceedings.
Resolved That they can put more taxes or
the people to the square inch than any other
party that ever existed.
Or, should it be Democrat that
itched for chance to show his ora
tory we will meet him on the follow
ing question:
Resolved. That after nearly seven years
of his administration and duck hunting
Grover Cleveland discovered that the Mon
roe Doctrine was big thing.
Resolved, That he is favorite of Jewish
money loaners.
Resolved, That he aimed to keep from do
ing wrong by doing nothing.

1t must be highly pleasing for the
chief executive of the United States
to go on record against the recogni-
ton of Cuban belligerency in face Of
the fact that nearly every patriotic
American citizen is crying for speedy
recognition. The chief executive, with
the Spanish minister at his coat tail,
sees the horrible butcheries going on
in the Island under the direction of
the cut-throat Weyler, and then turns
deaf ear to the cries of the people
struggling for that liberty for which
Washington and our forefathers
fought. Shame on such a head of a
nation.

patience EXHAUSTED:

Redwood Falls is just now, always
has been in the past, and promises to
be in the future, the victim of the
most outrageous telegraph service
known in the thousands of miles COW
cred by the Western Union Telegraph
Co. Almost invariably in the past,
letter mailed at the same time of the
filing of a special would arrive at it's
destination simultaneous with the
message.
An attempt was made about three
years ago and continued at one or
two intervals to have this trouble rem
edied. The Redwood Falls Telephone
Co. agreed to turn over to the West
ern Union Telegraph Co. it's lines of
poles in this city and to North Red
wood. providing the Telephone Co.
was allowed to operate it's wires on the
poles and providing the Telegraph
Co. would establish a commercial Of
flee in this city. The Telegraph Co.
insisted on an expressed condition
that the Telephone Co. should not ex-
tend it's line. The Telephone Co., not
being pleased with this hog PROPOSE
ton, rejected the proposal and there
the matter stands.
The business of the Telegraph Co.
is rapidly decreasing in this city on
account of the rotten system it has for
the public to patronize. 1t decreased
nearly one-half last year. The public
will not patronize it where the mail is
just as rapid and they are right in
their conclusions. 1t is only ques-
ton of time when the small message
business will be done away with alto
gether, anyway. The long distance
telephone system will replace it, will
be cheaper and better and will con-
meet with all important towns. Then
will the Telegraph Co. learn that hog
monopoly is not a profitable treatment
of the people.

of good results. Mr.. Nicholas. Will
Moody. Al Bettingen and others
have spent several thousand dollars
in the attempt to demonstrate the ex-
istence of coal here, and have only
halted now on account of the large
expense necessary before anything
further can be dene. The commit
tee know that the coal indications
here are good, but deem it best to
assist Mr.. Nicholas and his associates
for several reasons, the most cogent
of these being that they will put up
half, or more than ha6, the cost of
the drill, and will pay all expenses of
running it.
Mr.. Nicholas is an old coal miner,
understands the business, and has
given up his hotel interests that he
may devote his time to the work of
development of the coal fields here.
BY assisting them the cost of the en-.
tire experiment, as far as the commu-
nifty is concerned, is $500. Any
other plan would cost much larger
amount.
The Importance of the matter can
not be over estimated, for if success
ful 1t will mean larger and more
valuable shipments from here every
year than all our wool, stock, grain,
fruit and fish. The amount required
if small, and if every business man
and property owner would contribute
it would be but trihe each. hardly
the price of a half dozen cigars.
We hope every citizen will re-
spond to the call of the committee and
get the matter tested and settled. by
the opening of spring.

THE DEPTH SOUNDED.

And now comes the Ex-Slaves
Pension Association of the United
States and seeks to be tied up TO the
government corncrlb. The associa-
tlon held its first convention at Bir-
mingham, Alabama, beginning Dec.
lst and lasting three days. A peti
ton to congress was drawn up urging
the passage of a bill introduced in
the senate by Senator Thurston last
December, and providing that the
ex-slaves should be pensioned, be-
cause they helped to develop the
wealth of the country and also to
fight its battles.
Why Senator Thurston should in.
troduce such a bill is beyond the
ken of mortals, unless he had some po-
litical chestnuts to rake out of the fire
through negro votes. Why congress
should be asked to entertain such a
proposition is equally mysterious.
Inc luea seems TO be gaming ground
that the government can support the
people instead of the people support
ing the government. That idea oe-
cupies large space in the Popu-
lists theory, and is as untenahle as a
ghosts clothing. The plain fact
that the government cannot give un
til the government gets, seems never
to have entered into the brains of
that class of people who believe in
governmental paternalism. Those
who must provide the means, the
taxpayess, for meeting the govern
ment's obligations probably did as
much towards ''developing the wealth
of the country" as the former slaves
who now petition to be pensioned.

Again, it would strike a fair
minded observer that the very name
of the association should suggest to
its members that they have already
been pretty well treated by the goy-
ernment. Think of it! vast horde
of people doomed to lifelong slavery
suddenly given the greatest gift pos
sible, their freedom, asking to be
peDsioned for receiving the gift, and
for assisting in small way towards
its accomplishment. For every two
slaves freed, freeman and a white
man died. For every slave thls
set free, this government, be-
sides the lives of its citizens, spent
more than thousand dollars, and as
the South sacrificed its all, it is safe
to say that the cost to the country in
treasure, not counting the blood aud
tears and broken hearts, the vacant
firesides the mourning mothers. the
wall of orphans or the tears of wild
ows-a priceless sacrifice-was more
than $4,000 for. every slave freed.
Think of it! The slave with the
shackles struck from his limbs stand
ing on the graves of those who sac.
rificed their lives on his account
and asking that the descendants of
those who set him free be taxed for
his support. The lowest depths of
the deepest ocean of ingratitudc have
been sounded, and the foul muck of
its bottom brought to the surface in
the gathering of the Ex-Slaves Pen
sion Association at Birmingham,
Alabama.
