A TOUGH KID.

Gun Ole" Johnson, a typical
young tough, was arrested Wednes-
day for assaulting little girl, and
the case was tried before Justice
Northrup. Johnson is only a school
boy, but he has a natural tendency
to be tough, and his parents either
do not care or else have lost control
of him. He had already been
guilty of pulling a gun on people,
stabbing playmate with a knife,
and abusing the teacher coupled
with a threat to kill her. The last
row at school occurred Wednesday,
and this with the assaulting of a
helplest little girl is what will land
him in the reform school shortly
The evidence in the case justified
the judge in holding the lad to ap-
pear in the superior court where an
order will be asked for admitting
Johnson to the reform school. Con-
stable Ashby took him to jail at
Colfax Neutrality-suspicious. Repub-
lican.

lO2,6O4 compose the infantry: 5,215
the cavalry; 5,267 the artillery, 649
special corps and ,443 generals and
staff officers. The total appropri-
alton allowed the militia by the
government amounted to 100000,
while the states during the same
peIiod, spent $2,834,976 on these
organizations. 1t is estimated that

In about two-thirds of the states
the publication says the militia is
armed with the Springfield rifle
and carbine Of various patterns. A
number of the artillery militia reg
iments are provided with Calling
guns and 3.3 inch breech- loading
rifles, but a large proportion of the
armament consists of ~
FOUNDER Nopoleons, three inch
loading rifles, Parrot rifles
and other obsolete ordnance. The
of small arms ammuni-
ton held in reserve in addition to
that in the hands of the troops is
not far from 100000 rounds.
States having Calling gun batteries
keep on hand a limited supply of
ammunition for these guns. The
supply for field guns is very limited
and the quality by no means the
best.

roEXTERMINATE SQUIRRELS

nigration meeting last Saturday
hose present engaged in an inter
sting discussion relative to the
hest methods of DISCRIMINATING the
SQUIRRELS, says the Commoner. All
the we'll known methods were ad-
vocated by someone, Commits
sioner Johnl Lyons entered the room
about that time, and hearing the
meeting discuss a subject which he
believes to be of the utmost i'm
portance, he took part in the DELHI
erations. Mr.. Lyons expressed the
belief that PHOSPHORUS is the cheap
est and most effective poison, and
gave his reasons for his belief. He
also gave the method of preparing
the poison and stated that he had
found it most effective after Is years
of usage. He thought, however,
that in order to make an effective
warfare upon the pest the work
must be pushed in every part of the
country, on every piece of ground
infested, and with the utmost vigor.
To do this the county must take
hold of the matter, he thought. This
sentiment was shared by all others
present. 1t was argued that if the
county does not assist, the pests
will soon have complete control of
the western part of the county, and
the latter will not be able to collect
any taxes from the people, 1t was
the sense of the meeting that the
amount of grain saved to every
farmer in case the county assisted
in discriminating the squirrels
would be many times greater than
his proportionate share of taxation
resultant from such action.
To bring the matter more def
initelp before the public the follow
ing resolution was unanimously
adopted:
WHEREAS, The squirrel pest has
become nuisance to the county it
is the unanimous belief of the citi-
zens here assembled that drastic
measures should be Immediately
taken to exterminate the squirrels
and as a systematic effort produces
better results than any other pos
sible plan, therefore be it
RESOLVED, That it is the sense
OF this meeting that the county
commissioners of Whitman county
do appropriate a reasonable amount
of the county funds to be system
atically applied towards the imme-
date destruction of squirrels, and
it is urgently requested that petit
tons from all parts of Whitman
county be sent at once to said coun-
ty commissioners asking that they
appropriate such funds and take
immediate action for the purposes
heaeintofore set forth.
ID. f. ANDERSON,

Committee.
In consideration of the above, and
because of a request on the part of
the Spokane county commissioners
to participate in a squirrel con-
vention," the board has called a
convention of citizens of this county
to meet in Colfax, March Dist, for
the purpose of discussing the ad-
Instability of county aid in the mat
ter, and of devising ways and means
how to most effectively make war
upon the obnoxious and damaging

reflection in the following brief para
graph from the Crookston Times
"This is the season when everything
seems dull. Business is dead and
the principal work of the merchants
and their force of clerks is taking
the annual inventory to see where
they stand. The lull in trade after
the holidays and the extreme cold
weather is the cause. The coming of
spring will be here before we hardly
realize that the winter has come and
gone, and we will all be so busy that
we will be thankful for having had a
season of semi rest. These winter
months are those which we have time
to get acquainted with each other
and rub up against the world through
the medium Of books and news
papers and social intercourse. Do
not be sorry that they rob you of a

Christian Abstinence.

1t is told in the History OF the OJib
way Indians that when four Indians
from Muncy Town had gone to neigh
boring settlement to trade, they were
tempted by trader to drink. They re-
fused, and gave as their reason that they
were Christians The trader thought
they we're afraid of the missionary, and
that they would take the drink on the
sly, if they could get it. Accordingly,
knowing the path by which they would
return home, he placed Keg of whisky
upon it, and hid himself in the bushes.
The Indians came along in single file,
when suddenly the first stopped and
exclaimed "Lo the evil spirit is here. "
The second, coming up, said: eyes,
me smell him. The third shook the
keg, and exclaimed: "Of truth me
hear him" The fourth coming up gave
the keg a kick which, as it was on the
edge of bank, sent it bounding off
with the evil spirit to some distance =

The abundant harvest should not
lead farmers to buy more land unless
they are out of debt This has been
the cause of more than one failure.
It was one of the principal causes OF
distress among the farming classes
during the past two years. In 1891
the wheat harvest was unusually
large aud prices good. The next
year, believing that the same condi-
tons would prevail. the farmers were
led into adding new territory to their
possessions, and in. the failure to
secure the expected crops and prices
they were unable to meet their pay
ments. Interest accumulated; new
debts had to be contracted to prevent
the sale of the land, and times which
we're destined as blessing they used
as the means to work distress to them
selves. The stern lessons of economy
cannot be too we'll learned. If man
cannot farm eighty acres successfully
he cannot any the better handle twice
the amount. Here is where too many
men make mistakes. They buy
large farms and spend their energies
in paying for them, and then die and
leave it all to their children to enjoy
or squander. The lesson of the hard
times has been dearly bought, but
it will have its results, and they will
have their fect.-Alexandria Repub-
lican.

ism It does not near that the march
of civilization is to cease, no more than
the maintenance of the independence of
Japan meant that it was to seal her
gates against modern progress.
On the contrary, Abyssinia will. as an
Independent State, be as likely to put on
new robes as if it were a subject to the
hand of a conqueror. The swing of the
pendulum is to bring these African
States back to and push them far be
ycnd the ancient civilization of which
some Of them We're once the seat. Africa
is as certain to don new robes as that
march. Conquest of these Independent
cies capable of self-rule, and of sustain
ing diplomatic relations with civilized
countries, is not the necessary prelude
to their entry upon higher and better
conditions. The Times" correspond
ent we'll says:
The invasion of that country was too
rapid, too precipitately taken. Every
where Africans without distinction
have been treated as SO many cattle to
be branded with the owners mark. The
Italians have been not less courageous
or less enterprising than others, but
they made up their minds a little too
late, and when they also went to Africa
to get their share of the African fortune
the easily accessible regions had all
been taken up, SO that they had to be
satisfied with regions not open to the
first conner.
The Italians made the mistake Of not
establishing a friendly alliance with
African Princes, with whom such a re-
lation would have been better for the
cause of civilization than conquest
Menelek was treated as a savage to be
crushed and held subject, on the as
sumption that he is a barbarian amena-
bic to no other force than such as backs
conquest and military domination.
The result has been that Africa has
Awakened; not Apyssinia alone, but
Africa as a whole, and Europe has come
also to full realization of the fact that
these ''barbarians" are capable of appre-
ciating and defending human rights.
Whether the European States will profit
by the lesson remains to be seen.
