An Ovation.
II. w. HOLLEY.

When it was fully determined that
Mr.. Pattison had won the victory the
crowd surrounded him and putting him
i'll chair carried him up Tower avenue
to the Northern block where an i'm
mense crowd had assembled, and here
Mr.. Pattison made the following short
but appropriate speech:
"Citizens of Superior, such an ovation
as this seldom comes to man. ! feel
highly honored This is a victory of
the Republican party, not mine. 1t is
the first gun fired in the campaign
whereby we will place a Republican
president in the White House. 1t
means much to us, it means much to
our city and much to our country. No
dispatches will 90 singing along the
telegraph wires tonight saying that SUI
perior is not in line for a Republican
president, but these messages running
out to the world will say. No free

is necessary to make any extended re-
marks. let bygones be by-gones. If
ought have said during the campaign
has offended any one | wish it TO be
blOtted out; whatever has been said by
the others against me is forgiven. Let
Republicans, democrats and all now put
their shoulder to the wheel and say
Superior first Let us all work for the
interest of our city and we can do much
if we all pull together. Gentlemen, it
shall he my cndeayor to give this city
Just as good an administration as it is
possible for mortal man to do. If | do
not it shall be because [ will not be able

The people gave to Mr.. Bardon's
opinions on tax matters their endorse
ment on Tuesday. Whatever Mr.. Bar
don does or proposes is always as much
in the interest OF the poor, small pro-
perty owner as in his own or any large
holders behalf. Superior people who
oppose Mr.. Bardon should not forget
that he has done and can yet do more
for Superior than any other one man.
Some Of those who can see nothing but
robbery in the tax proposition, and lay
it all to Mr.. Bardon favored the out and
out steal by the banks when the question
of securing the city's accumulated taxes
which were deposited in these banks
came up. Consistency is a virtue to be
admired, and should be first attained by
those who pose as rcformers and adj
justcrs of public matters.

Mysterious Footprints In the Locked Omce
at KOkomO Ind


at Kokomo, Ind.
The officers of Upton county, Ind,
upon entering the courthouse the other
day discovered the prints of woman's
foot leading through the halls and en-
tering each of the Offices, which were
securely locked the night before, and
from them leading up the stairway
into the circuit court room. The jani-
tor declared that he had bolted all the
outside doors before leaving the build
ing for the night, and no one could
possibly have got in and locked all the
doors again as they were found in the
morning. The footprints were as clear
as if the feet of the woman had been
immersed in water after each step be-
fore making another, and the trail from
Office to Office and up the stairs to the
courtroom was clearly defined. It is
said that this phenomenon appeared be-
fore in the building Immediately fol-
lowing the acquittal of a man for the
murder of a young woman of the coun-

NOT A SOFT MARK.
A Pair of Gamblers Wake Up Granger
from Tazewsll County.

Fair OF Gamblers wake Up Granger
from TazewsI County.
This method of duplicating unwary
strangers in the consequences of dice
game is time-honored one, but despite
the warning of newspapers and special
watchmen it continues to find an ever
fresh supply of victims, says the Chi
cago Post. On rare occasions, however,
Its operators find their match where
they least expect it. Quite recently a
pair of "dice bracers'' caught q promis-
ing victim ut the Union depot in the
person of a quiet and elderly farmer,
who appeared to be as curious concern
ing the ways of the great city and as
rneekly inoffensive as any of his class.
He was rated as easy game by the in
dustrious dice men, and they soon had
him marking down their gains and
losses in q Canal street saloon.
The game was quick one, his friends
were, of course, confronted with sud-
den and unexpected losses which they
were unable to meet, and the angry
proprietor bore down, in full sail, upon
the quiet old farmer for the amount of
his friends losses. They were not so
well acquainted with the pioneer of
Tazewell county at that moment as
they were five minutes later. His toll
bronzed hands closed upon the back of
barroom chair, the legs of the latter
were lifted moment midair, and then
seemed to dash in dozen different di-
rcctions at the same instant. When he
finally dropped the chair he was the
sole occupant of the room, and his
leisurely walk across. the street to the
depot was solitary one. He owned
the street, and, although lie has been
to the city several times since, he is
marked by distinguished neglect on the
part of "the gang"

4 Decayed Oregon, Village Whore the

Connell, in Franklin county, where
people are now hunting for gold, was
some years ago place Of 400 or 500
population, says the Oregonian. The
population now consists Of station
agent, night telegraph operator and
~ Northern Pacific pumper, section
foreman and a Chinese section crew.
At one time there were hotels, saloons,
stores and all the other institutions
to be found in country town. Two
railroads reach the place, one being
the Northern Pacific main line and the
other the Palouse branch of the O. r.
& N. company. The latter road had a
roundhouse, water tank, section house,
ETC., and formerly had quite q payroll.
At present no trains are run over this
track, the weekly train turning back
at Washtucna, % miles east of Cornell,
and returning to La Crosse, on the o.
r. & N. main line. Very few of the
buildings are left in the place. They
have been hauled away by ranchers,
and are now scattered over the country
from Moses Coulee to Snake River.
The roundhouse is still there-it is too
big to move-but it is sadly dismantled
and is gradually disappearing, as the
hobos tear great pieces off it with
which to build their camp fires, and the
ranchers succeed in tearing greater
strips from 1t to haul home for fire
wood. People come from as much as
so miles away to gather up old ties
along the road, and if a big lump of coal
happens to roll off passing train the
man who finds it is as happy for few
minutes as man ever gets in this
world of troubles.
Coyotes roam through the sage brush
in countless numbers, and some of
them are SO. tame they come upon the
depot platform and greedily devour
anything the agent or operator will
put out for them, but will not go so far
as to allow the men to touch them.
Rattlesnakes also abound by millions,
whole dens of them frequently being
found in rocky places. One day last
summer the three men who constitute
the population went out among the
rocks, and with clubs in q short while
killed enough rattlesnakes to load .
box car. One Of the men was so over
come by the ef1luvia that all snakes
emit that it took him several days to
recover

Lincoln Republicanism.


In his own personality Abraham
lincoln was an embodiment of every
hing in the republican party that
as lived or deserved to live. Lincoln
publicanism embraces everything
which that party has ever stood
at has taken strong, enduring hold
ION the masses. The reason of
is is that more than any other man
at has lived he was himself the
lain common people incarnate.
J, men he said to his friend, Governor
sichard Oglesby: .'Dick, stick close
o the people," he conveyed in home
phrase his own conviction of the
lly course that is wise and safe in
atesmanship. He believed implicitly
lat the heart, conscience collective
sdom of the common people consti-
te the most perfect human stand
of judgment and source of guild
ce among men. He was by nature
d choice commoner, and he kept
sparty close to the people. The
pulse he gave his party along that
continued several years, and
lie it lasted the party was invinci-
!. The time, however, came when
management and control of the
publican party fell into the hands
nen with different ideas, instincts
sympathies from those of Lin
l.. By degrees the newer men
ted into the theory that the
,ndship of certain powerful class
or special interests has become es-
,tial to the success of political
tv in this country, and they !ac-
rdingly began to shape the meas
es and policies of the party with q
swof placating those classes and in
'ests. Almost uninterruptedly
IN that time till now the party has

sympathy of the plain common

.ldreds of thousands now vote

pom the whole better than any
er, and not as matter of con-

time of Lincoln and his imme-
;e successors. Its power is no
ger invincible as it once was, but
cad it is swept in and out of con-
capricious currents as an I'M
