Amendment No. 1.

Upon investigation we find that il
is to the interest of the farmers and
taxpayers in general to vote mo" on
the first amendment to the constitu-
ton relative to the taxation of railroad
lands. The railroads are now paying
a 3 per cent tax on their entire gross
earning, which the law explicitly says
"shall be in lieu of all other taxation, -
and of which ever county gets it's ap-
portionment. In case this amendment
becomes a law, it is the opinion of the
best attorneys that it will annul or
repeal the 3 per cent taxation.
Another point to be considered is
that the3 per cent tax is constantly
increasing while the taxation on rail-
road lands would be constantly de-
creasing. The bill is railroad
scheme gotten up by the managers
for the express purpose of sneaking
out of paying their just taxes. Put
an X opposite the word mo and
hold the railroads to their present
contract.

THIRD, AND LAST CALL
Hon r. 9. Evans, of Minneapolis,
VIII Close the Republican
Campaign Here.

Last, but not least, comes the grand
demonstration to be given in the in
terest of the Republicans of Stevens
county next Friday evening, Oct. 80,
at which Hon. r. G.. Evans of Mime
apolis will be the speaker of the even
ing. Mr.. Evans is we'll known in
Morris, and everybody who knows him
is anxious to hear him. The court
house will be packed to suffocation
on this occasion, as there are being
made extensive preparations for this
rally to eclipse all former ones held
during this campaign. Mr.. Evans is
an orator and a statesman and will
place some of the most convincing
arguments yet brought out before the
people, and he will deliver them in
such way as to convince the most
skeptic. Let everyone turn out and
hear him, as this will be your last
chance to hear first class orator this
year.

Serious Accident.
contract

Mrs. Geo. Willett met with pain
full accident last Saturday, caused
by defective sidewalk, of which this
town is literally strewn with. While
walking along in the nelghborhood OF
the post Office, accompanied by two
other ladies', she tripped on loose
board in the walk and fell, sustaining
severe injuries from which she has
since been confined to her home,
There seems to be ample grounds in
this instance for a heavy damage suit
against the city. A large part OF the
sidewalks in the town are sadly in
need of repairs, and should be attend
ed to before some serious accident
happens, as the expense of a damage
suit will build considerable sidewalks
and it is better to build a sidewalk
before than after suit is brought.
But if that is the only way we will
get our sidewalks repaired then the
sooner the damage suit is commenced
the better.

Alleged HighWaymen.

What was supposed to be an at
tempt at highway robbery occurred
last Monday evening in the vicinity
of the water tank on the Great North
ern about two miles out of town, in
which Louis Thoele was the principal
figure. About 7 o'clock in the even
ing, as he was leisurely vending his
way homeward after an all days
drive and visit among the voters in
the southern part of the county, he
was aroused from his lethargy by
some one suddenly appearing in front
of his horse as though shot out of the
bosom of the earth, and demanding
the horse to halt by yelling "Whoap
Having his whip in hand, Mr.. Thoele
vigorously applied it to the horse,
which made such plunge forward
that threatened humiliation to the in
truders and they quickly stepped
aside and in very short order Mr..
Thoele was out of reach of his would
be assailants. 1t was too dark to rec
ognize the highwaYmen, but as he
passed them he noticed that there
were three men, and for quite a dis
lance could hear them cursing and
swearing, no doubt, at being foiled in
in their scheme.
The same evening Peter Kesler, the
tankman on the Great Northern, hav-
ing occasion to visist a neighbor on
account of the sickness of his child,
was chased quite distance bV two
men, but he eluded them sufficient to
make his escape. During the chase
he had the presence Of mind to drop
his watch and pocketbook on the side
of the road in some high grass, fear
ing that they would overtake him.
The next morning he found his prop
erty.

Republican Rallies.

The Republican demonstrations
have been rather numerous the past
few days and will continue so the
rest of this week. Gen. L. A. Grant
spoke at Hancock last Saturday even
ing and was greeted with full house
with enthusiastic advocates of the
Republican cause.
Hon. L. W. Squires, who is very
forcible and convincing speaker, spoke
to a large gathering at Framnas
Monday night and Swan Lake last
night. The latter place in particular
did enthusiasm run high, the school
house being packed. R. H. Grace
also made short address which was
enthusiastically received, after which
Mr.. Dohlen made few appropriate
remarks complimenting the speakers,
Tonight he will speak in the
town hall at Pepperton. Great prep
atoms are being made to give
him a grand ovation at the latter
place. There will be large delega
tons go from here to hear him. To
morrow night he will speak in Chokio;
Friday evening in the town of Stevens
at the school house in District No. 80;
and Saturday evening in the town
hall in the town of Scott. This will
probably close the campaign work in
Stevens county, and the Republican
is to be congratulated on
it's effective work done this year in
the interest of good cause.

Italy's war in ADysinia is proving dis
a%strous. Recently their ablest general,
although he has $4,000 men in that Afrl-
can stronghold, suffered a crushing de-
feat, losing 5000 men killed and much
OF his provisions and munitions of war.
1t has been one of the most disastrous
battles Of modern times and may be the
cause OF the overthrow of the Crispi
ministry, the ablest hat Italy can have
at the present time. But the powers Of
the Italian general is little like that of the
gallant and brilliant expedition of the
British General Roberts in 1878, when
he marched triumPhantly into the heart
OF Abysinia, into Gondar, the capital,
and rescued the two British ministers
there imprisoned, besides humbling
King John into the dust. Nor have the
Abysinians forgotten that lesson when
England demands anything Of them.

NEw YORK, March "a special from
Havana to The World says: The state
of public feeling in the United States
on the Cuban question, and the general
indignation excited by General Wey.
ler's first announcement Of his new
plans, no doubt explains the nom
appearance of another proclamation
which was to have been issued late in
February. General Weyler was advised
from Washington that the announce
ment of his plans had excited much
sympathy for Cuba, and that another
proclamation would be likely to hasten
action by the American congress. Gen.
,eral Weyler has apparently acted on
this advice, and while he has not de-
waited from the policy he first an
nounced, he has given up conducting
his campaign by proclamations.
Regarding the recognition resolutions
General Weyler said:
II cannot understand the sentiments
which led the United States congress to
do what it has done. If recognition of
belligerency is formally declared, Amer
lean property will lose the legal rights
of protection by my soldiers it now
enjoys. There are extensive American
interests here, and if the United States
recognizes the rebels they relieve my

the middle of February. when a Creole
from New Orleans arrived in the city
with plenty Of funds, and made himself
known to o small circle of Cuban SYM

to work. and between 40 and SO recruits
