Rebuked By Hannibal Harnlin.

Mr.. Hamlin was true gentleman
Punctilious himself in the observance Of
all the requirements Of gentlemanly in
tercourse, he was equally exacting OF
every courtesy due him from others. Re
permitted no man to be rude to him Or
to assume the attitude of a superior. On
one occasion one of the able men and
leaders of the senate, distinguished for
aseH conscious, lordly air in his deport-
ment, in the change Of seats which oc-
ours once in two years in the senate
chamber had gained seat by the side
Of Mr.. Hamlin and began at once to
practice upon him those little exactions
and annoyances which he had been &C
customed to ip,pose upon others. After
few days Of yielding to these encroach-
ments Mr.. Hamin turned and in tone
that did not require repetition, said,
"Sir, if you expect to be treated like 6,
gentleman, you must proc yourself
one" There was never occasi u after
ward to repeat the admonition.-Henry
L. Dawes in Century.

Take Care of Your Teeth.


All decay of the teeth begins from

Consequently if the teeth's surfaces
be kept scrupulously clean they cannot
decay.

As soon as there are teeth.

Of using a small toothbrush dipped into
chalk favored with some aromatic drug
and let it understand that the places
most needing the brush are those be-

Cure Versus Prevention.

One curiously irrational feature OF
the conduct OF government and society
is the lavish expenditure for cure COM
pared with the pittance spent for pre-
vention. We lavish thousands upon our
asyluns, which proper attention to
medical education and sanitary precau-
tions would render tenantless. We elect
rogues to Office and maintain at great
expense OF time, labor and money vol
untary system Of espionage to prevent
their robbing US We build costly jails
and prisons and support expensive courts
Of justice and allow uncared for waits
by thousands to throng our streets and
sbodes of evil It is truth which has
become trite that prevention would be
vastly moro economical and beneficial
than these only half effective cures, yet
we go on day after day in utter disre-
gard of its teachings Chicago Adj

OF NEW JERSEY.

IT is with regret that we note
the demise of the Mesaba Range,
published at Biwabik. In his
farewell remarks, Bro. Metcalfe
gives the people of Biwabik and
also other towns something to
think about. He has worked hard
for the little town, but as he says,
the people did not appreciate it.
Only a few weeks ago the council
of that place withdrew from the
Range the village printing in an
economical fit and only short
time afterwards appropriated $40
to purchase instruments for a
brass band. Such is life in country
villages.

This is the sense of an argument
thrown into our teeth during the
week by local Populist. The
question is now. Does either one
of the mining managers, who do
thousands of dollars worth of bust
ness every month know as much
about finances as a common every
day dub whose money transactions
do not amount to $40 per week,
and who before he came to this
country did know the difference
between a Canadian dime and a
$50 gold piece, only that the same
was larger! The MINER is on the
side of right and does not talk
against the government. We are
q foreigner, but nevertheless have
lived in this country long enough
to know that the Republican party
is the party for the country and
good enough for us, for the simple
reason that we know the difference
between Republican and Demo
cratic times, in fact, we have lived
in this free America longer than
the aforementioned champion of
free silver and anarchistic tenden-
cies who accuses us of being sub
ject to the call of men, whose
opinions 60 great deal farther
than our own or the opinions of
one-horse Populist. Where he
gets his opinions we are at loss
to understand. Some people have
opinions Of their own. Right here
we wish to say that we respect
Manager Pengilly and Manager
Sturtevant and our humble old
father who are on the side of right
and because q certain few of our
neighbors do not believe as we do,
we nevertheless think they are
good people, but that their Judge
ment is poor. Of course, our
opinion does not 60 great ways
because we must ''receive letter
from Sturtevant or Pengilly," be-
fore we have an opinion of our
own. Personal character is what
counts, however. Bah! Only
few years ago several of the stamp
of citizens of which we speak were
hung in Chicago, but in our
opinion there are several whom it
might do good to receive the same
treatment.
If the Chandler mine closed to
make Republican votes as per the
Demo-pop statements, then why is
it SO many people are leaving here
for the old country? Why does
not the management keep them
here until after election!

M. f. MARION, of Tower, was
nominated as the Democratic can
didate for the legislature in Dull
nth this week. Mr.. Marion, per-
sonally, is gentleman of the first
water but his political views will
hinder him from taking his seat as
the representative of this district.
L. K. Vail will be elected to the
position with an easy majority.
CHAs. A. TowNE says he is yet
Republican. Very likely. Stand
ing on q Democratic platform
preaching Popolistic doctrines
from a free silver stand point, and
yet claims to be a Republican?
Free trade and free silver do not
travel hand in hand with protec-
ton, prosperity and sound money.
J. ADAM BEDE in his little

this week, advocates the sound
money principles. This is very

OF all the vast audience which
listened to the Hon. Chas. A.
Towne at his recent appearance in
this city, not one can remember of
his telling of any plausible reason
why anyone should be o silverite.

pens to be Mr.. Towne's luck in
life, while at the same time there
are many men who have good
sound reasoning powers, that can
not express themselves.

The silver advocates and demo-
pop-silver free traders are very
much elated over what they term
the ''funk" of Hon. Page Morris
to Mr.. Towne's challenge for a
series Of joint debates and say the
Hon. Judge is very much afraid
Of the Hon. Chas. While Judge
Morris is only too willing to meet
the Hon. Chas. on the issues of
the day, he does not deem the
silver craze of enough Importance
to waste much breath on the same.

Mr. Hahn said that assurances had been

THE SENATE'S WORK.
The Agreements as to the Naval Dnd
Indinn Appropriation Bills.

The Senate spent some time Yesterday af-
ternoon in the consideration of the bill in
relation to contempts of court. but no
action had been taken when. ct I:io. the
Senate adjourned. Shortly before 4 o'clock
Mir Allison asked unanimous consent that
the Senate should at $50, take recess
until 9 O'clock so as to hold the first even
ing session of the season. Mr.. Butler OBJ
jected and Mi. Allison, notwi outstanding
the general fear that voting quorum
could not be obtained, moved that an even
ing session be held. Mr.. Butler attempted
to flibuster, and suggested the absence of
quorum. Ffftytwo Senators responded
seven more than a quorum -whereupon
Mr. Butler called for the yeas AMI nays, the
first of the day. The vote was yeLs. 40;
nays, 11-six more than a quoru1l-and an
evening session was ordered.
Later. however. the final report or the
conferees on the naval bill was presented
and accepted. whereupon MIR. Allison ex-
planned that this action had greatly re-
duced the necessity for an evening session.
and on his request the order for The recess
was reScinde1.
The voting quorum disappeared a little
later when the Senate attempted to vote on
the passage of the bill to pension Francis
E. Hoover. Notwithstanding the Presidents
veto. This vote resulted in 81 yeas and Z
nays, seven less than quorum, and Mr..
Mills then moved an adjournment, which
was ordered at $40 o'clock.
The agreement on the naval bill was ac-
cepted by both houses with only brief state
ments by Mr.. Smith in the Senate and Mr..
Boutelle in the House. 1t fixes the mum Der
of new battle ships at three, and directs
the Secretary of the Navy to make no more
contracts for armor plate until further ac-
ton by Congress, an investigation of the
cost of armor being contemplated by the
House committee, in addition to that al
ready conducted by the Senate committee.
A final agreement was also reached on
the Indian bill, and adopted IN the House.

THE PROBABLE PLATFORM.
Senator Thurston Makes an Interest
ing Prediction.

ST. LOUIS. June Ex-senator Thurston,
member of the national committee from
Nebraska. and delegate to the convention,
among the early arrivals today. He
appeared at the breakfast table wearing the
first combination presidential and vice
presidential badge which has been displayed
by any of the republican, leaders. 1t bore
the faces of Mex inley and Hobart of New
Jersey. ''It is pretty well UNDERSTOOD, SAID
the Senator, that | am for Mckinley for
first place. With his domination assured.
as it is" the Senator continued, we want
an eastern his running mate, and
| believe Hobart to be the available man
He meets the requirements of the situation
IN all respects. We want to keep New Jer
sey in the republican ranks, now that We
have 1t there. Furthermore, Hobart ia
strong in New York where he 3 personally
we'll known and much esteemed
Asked what course he thought would he
adopted by the convention upon the finan-
cial questiC n. Senator Thurstoa replied that
he believed the Indiana declaration upon
that subject would form the m deI upon
which the money declaration would be
based.
1T is" he said brief and explicit. and
very Skillfully avoids reference by terms
of any of the mooted questions. 1t is I'M
mistakenly sound money uttera nee. At
the same time, 1t avoids all mention Of the
gold standard. reference to which by name
would drive votes away from the ticket in
some Of the states.
IL is better imam the Ohio platform, whiC h.
While when analysed Is just as clearly for
sound money, makes 100 prominent by name
the silver question. The Indiana form OF
expression VIII be more acceptable in the
east than would that of the Ohio republi-
cans.
The Senator expressed the opinion that
the Indiana platform would be satisfactory
to all the western states. except the five
silver-producing states-Colorado, Utah,
Montana, Idaho ana Nevada, and possibly
wyoming: but he said that, they have.
all told. only nineteen votes in the elect oral
college, the party could afford to lose them.
Mr. Thurston said, in reply to a question,
that he had no doubt that some of the del
gates from the eastern Seaboard states
would make strong contention for a more
pronounced and explicit declaration for
gold. but that it would not be wise to con-
ceie their extreme demands. "They will IN
the end be satisfied with a conservative
announcement" he said. land they will be
glad enough to take it in preference to The
u'lequivOcal silver declaration the -.icago
convention will give out.
referring to other questions of which the
platform will treat, the Senator said he
thought first place would be given to the
tariff, as that is and has been a distinctive
issue of the republican party. He thought
there would he a declaration demanding in
strong terms a distinctly American policy,
but he was of the opinion that the A. P. A
question would not figure in the conven-
ton.
