DEMOCRATIC GINS.

The complexion of the next
House of Representatives will show
undoubted democratic gains. Full
returns from all the states show
that the democrats have made con-
gressional gains as follows: Cali
fornia, l, Colorado, 2, Deleware, l.,
Idaho, l, Illinois, l, Indiana, 3,
Kansas, l, Kentucky, l, Michigan,
l, Missouri 6, Nebraska 3, Ohio 4,
Pennsylvania l, Tennessee 2, Utah
l, Washington l, total 80. The
populists have gained votes in
California 2, Illinois 2, Indiana 1,
Kansas 4, Michigan l, Missouri l.,
Montana l, North Carolina 8 and
Washington l, total l6. The re-
publicans have gained three con-
gressmen in Maryland, one in Viz
ginia, one in New York and one in
-
Louisiana, total 6. The net demo-
cratic gain of votes, therefore, in
the next congress is %; the net
populist gain Is, and the net re-
publican loss 81. Utah's repre-
sentative adds one more to the
total number. But two gold demo-
Gratis were elected, and the net
gain to the silver men, therefore,
combining 10th democrats. and
populists is 36. One of the re-
publicans elected in New York is
James J. Belden, an independent,
who defeated the regular nominee,
but who is withal staunch repub-
lican.-Grand Forks Plaindealer.

During the early years of Cava-
lier county's history the Globe In
vestment Co., placed quite a mum.
Der of farm loans here, but lately,
through bad management has pas
sed into the hands of receiver.
The affairs Of the company prove
to be in bad condition as shown by
the following account in the daily
papers:
Allison z. Mason, president of
the defunct Globe investment com.
pany, was arrested last week on an
indictment warrant charging him
with embezzlement of sums aggre
eating $4,000. The treasurer, J.
Lowell Moore, of the company, is
now serving three-year sentence
on a similar charge, The Globe
Investment company was a success
sor to the Dakota Mortgage Loan
company, formed in Boston in 1884,
with a capital of 100000. The
company dealt almost exclusively
i'll western mortgages. In Septem-
Der 1895, the Massachusetts Saving
bank commissioners asked for re-
ceivers for the Globe and the SUI
preme court appointed Henry A.
lyman. Upon taking charge
Wyman found the affairs of the
company badly tangled with S276
in cash in the treasury and liabili-
ties amounting to 100000 al
though there was assets in paper
amounting to 100000. He also
found that funds collected on the
foreclosed mortgages had been
used to pay back int est and it
was on this charge Moore was SEN
fenced and that Mason was arrested
last week.

II DECEPTITE TIEW.

The best assurance that the ad-
vocates OF the gold standard give
of renewed prosperity spring cling
from the election of Mckinley is
that Europe will unlock her treas
ures and purchase more literally
of our securities, but this simply
means an increase of foreign in
debtedness. The starting up of
factories, which they also add to
this is a very meagre display and
in addition to that it is confessed
to be in almost every instance on
deferred orders. Very likely after
the bulk of these are over addition
al orders may come in, but there
is not the slightest prospect that
the flow will increase. Deferred
orders and increased activity in
gambling in our securities make
up the sum of the evidence of the
prosperity of which Mr.. Mckinley
has been advertised as the advance
agent" No light from thissource
breaks through the general gloom

THE farmers of North Dakota
and the whole northwest are
much better off every way than the
cotton, tobacco and corn planter.
of the south. The cotton crop is
more frequently a failure, both as
regards yield and price, than the
northern wheat crop, and there is
a greater diversity of crops here,
also. A farmer would indeed be
foolish to exchange the healthful
environments of his northern home
for the facilitating conditions
which exist so universally in south
ern ATTITUDES. There is greater in
telligence here, a.broader range for
activity, and infinitely better OPP
portunities for individual advance
ment-whether it be social or agri-
cultural. The continuous flocking
of southerners to the north would
seem to belle the fake boom state
ments that farm life in southern
ATTITUDES is the direct road to easy
fortune.

WHEAT PREDICTIONS.

There are prophecies from sour
ces where correct information is
supposed to exist, that the 81 mark
will be reached before another
wheat crop. An elevator company's
travelling agent remarked last
week that Pillsbury YVES quoted as
saying it was a question of where
to get the wheat. The receipts
have fallen off greatly and there is
little wheat in the northwest: The
impossibility of marketing wheat
in Dakota accounts for some Of the
shortage, but before spring mills
may be bidding for grain the high
est price in many years. There
appears to be little wheat in any
part of the United States. In
North Dakota the crop was light
and after deducting seed there can
be but little left to market. One
of the leading elevat IT lines has
already closed half of its houses
because there is not wheat enough
to keep them running. The same
houses were kept open last year.
The lucky farmer who has any
wheat left to sell will reap the
benefit, but of late years it happens
when there is a good price there is
great scarcity, and when there is
a good crop the price is low. So
the farmer fails to get the benefit,
and as other crops have not re-
sponded with wheat there is no
other source to look to to make up
for the loss of the wheat revenue.

EBEIGHTR.dTES.

The matter of freight rates is
one Of the first which should com
mand the attention of the legisla-
ture, which convenes in January.
The most fragrant injustice perpe-
trated upon the people of Moth
Dakota is the outrageous freight
rate which we are compelled to pay
on coal. The freight from Duluth
to Milton is S4.00 per ton. Ayear
ago anthracite coal was selling on
board cars at Duluth for $3.50 per
ton. Thus it will be- seen that the
freight from Duluth to Milton on
a ton coal is almost equal to the
entire cost of purchasing, digging
and transporting from the noun
tains of Pennsylvania or Ohio to
the lakes by rail, loading into boats
and freighting to Duluth and un-
loading at the docks there, includ-
ing all the various profits of the
local barons." The distance from
the coal mines of Pennsylvania or
Ohio to Duluth is more than
double the distance from Duluth
to Milton, yet the freight per ton
from the mines to Duluth is less
than one half what it is from Du-
luth to Milton. The State Bust
ness Mems Association should CO.
operate with the legislatures of this
state and Minnesota and have this
matter adjusted. It is offar more
vital Importance shan any other
issue now before the people of
North Dakota. We are paying al
together too high freight rates.
Let us have them reduced. We
do not expect rates to be reduced
as low as in the thickly populated
states in the east, but we do not
think it necessary to continue pay
ing the grossly unjust rates which
we are now paying on coal and
other articles which we import and
export Milton Globe.

HINES" RAILROAD.

Michael Hearns, formerly of
Fargo, now an agent located at
Chicago for North Dakota lands
and other western investments has
appeared upon the scene in oppo-
sition to D. ". Hines in the bust
ness of building the farmers rail
road, at least SO says the Duluth
News-Tribune. Mr.. Hernes made
his appearance among the farmers
of the Red River Valley two or
three days after election and ao-
nounced his intention of taking
hold of the project Of building a
railroad to the head of the lakes.
ndproceeded to interest the wheat
raisers in his scheme.
Hearns' plan is something after
that of Hines, and perhaps little
holder and less fesible, although
he claims it has been tried before
and proved successful. He will
propose to the directors of the
Duluth and North Dakota railroad
that they let him take hold of the
project, promising if they do SO to
have the line completed to Duluth
and Superior by Sept. LIST, 1897.
