Col. W. C.. Plummer North Dakota's
dowery orator and word painter has a
blast in the Republican League Leader

things the Col. says: mo matter what
may be said to the contrary the whole
northwest is Republican. Those States
cannot be torn from the Republican col
umn. Republican league clubs are being
formed everywhere. -Four years of Gro
yer and Democratic cussedness will con.
firm the sturdy men of the northwest il.

IN PLAIN PROSE.

Inc DeoaGlng (luD Tn at was organized
last winter for the purpose of aiding the
people of Washburn to express their
opinion before an audience, and for the
purpose of exchanging views and gaining
information on different subjects, has
come to a close. At thb first few meetings
there was large audiences present and
everything passed off smoothly. The
programs we're usually interesting and the
most of those taking part did we'll for he
Rinners. But this did not last long and it
o on changed into n general ''pow wow
First 1t changed to politics, abusing school
officers and County officers accusing them
of disappointing funds, and cheating
children out of their schooling. Next it
changed into horse talk, then into hog
talk, and finally ended in attempting to
kill dogs. There we're two papers and
n Of them was read at each meeting.
The Thundergust, edited by A. q. Ranard
contained dreams and matrimonial say
ings, In his dreams he thought he was
with DR.. Jamenson in the Transval of
Africa fighting the Beers. and upon re-
turning home found many changes, Wash
burn had become a large city, aud had
several railroads running through it,
Oliver Heath was mayor, and Tom Peter
son was in partnership with Miss Ada b.
Mussin. This last assertion caused Paddy
Burnley to shed tears and to prepare for to
return to the soldiers home. The other
paper the Mclean Co. Pop" was edited
by Miss Ada B. Mussln Co. Supt. The
editor spent much time, and great efforts
in e1pounding the manner by which the
old bachelors could be caught. Miss Mus.
sin is we'll qualified to speak OF this sub
iect, asst seems to have been her princi-
pie study for the past fifty years, In her
second editorial she turned the "Pop" bat
teries on the married people, from her
"Pop" paper it seems that she makes 1t
her business to look after the married
peoples affairs. She keeps close watch of
the women, and it seems as though she
sees them when they slamb the door be-
fore they go to bed. She also seems to
have kept posted on the actions of the
men until about three O'Clock in the morn
ing, Watching them while they were post
ing their books, or having a friendly game
of draw. In her next issue OF the "Pop'
paper she turned her "Pop" batteries on
the editor of the Thundergust, following
is a sample of this highly educated lady'a
remarks. "The measley old bald headed
editor of the Thundergust. In her last
paper she Turned her Pop batteries on
dom este animals and made q strong effort
to kill Clarke's dog, but after making a
total failure of the attempt, this estlmable
lady resigned from the society. This soci-
ETY. also had a clown in the person of
Anton Peterson, He wa at all times pre-
pared to deliver an oft hand speech"
The first thing he did was to make known

AN INTRODUCTORY ESSAY.

A debating society or lyceum, properly
conducted is ar educational help to those
who participate rs we'll as those who sit as
attentive listeners. It leads to incentive re-
search for information which fully repays
those who became interested. The deba
ting club of Washturn which started out
with 90 much promise in the latter part of
the winter, has come to RI lnglorlous close.
Tho reason, was plain to those who attend
ed u listeners, and many of the memb re-.
while noting the tendency Of the "poIiti-
cal economist" to al. his ignorance at the
expense of their patience, but bowed in
helplessness in the passing hour to times
weary drag; hence the grievious faL--the
closed doors, closed windows and
cheerlessly cold and deserted benches
remained after vain calls in incessant toll
ing of the school bells as none but the
awaiting %janitor greeted the summons.
The following communications though
both eaustically personal and severe in
som respects, seems to voice the opinion
of many of those who hung on the outer
edge of participation as we'll as those who
sat as patient, unobstrusive listeners to
the mental vagaries of some of the learned
(Y) debators or dec!aimers. In printing
the same We have limited the number Of
copies Of the LEADER containing the
same and combining it strictly within
county bounds. The publisher of this
paper having come IN for uncalled railary
and reflections by some of these political
puritaus in their scholarly efforts" who
were anxious to air their Informative vir-
tue in the bawdy gull of a rotten political
haranRue. The performer" whe prated
for his "Honest John" and who caught on
TO enough Of . declaimer's pose for
primary illustration, revisw his own re-
cord as county commissioner with huge
useless bills paid out, should have further

A press telegram dated Dickinson, N.
D., March %, says: Gentleman south of
here report the loss of stock by gray
wolves. One man recently lost twenty
five head of steers and heifers. -Four or
five wolves would single out a fat steer
and worry the life out of him in a short
time. The loss of young colts is also re-
ported" So it goes. As a pretended
friend of the cattle interests It seems to
us it would have been better for repre-
sentative Murphy, during the last legisla-
tive sitting to have given more time to
stay the repeal of the State wolf bounty
law aud less time on that Bill for the Re-
lief of DR.. Smyth." But then the Doc
tor got relieved, and the wolves seems to
feel that way too-while fat cattle are in
sight.

On the last two meeting lights
Now not hing could he finer!
Nor more beautiful to see
Than the first three weeks proceedings
or that same society.
Until the Granting Peterson
Into fits did straightiy 30,
And started at his ncighbOrs
To roast them leigh and low.
He fO-soOk the fields Of Literature
To indulge In Politics
And against those who'd not agree with him
He would indulge in fits
Twas then he'd act both wild and strange,
Like wallowing in q bog
He'd tell about his principles
And then about his hog;
Then, out came our brilliant editor
With items. Wild and hot.
She'd even roast the dogs in town.
At the sports she took u shot.
OF coarse, as she's the journalist
The news she'd have. But then,
Is 1t qnite right for a single lady
d To trail up married men?
Next she gave unto our county clerk.
A shot that Was hardly fair.
She abused that worthy gentleman
Because he'd lost his hair!
There's all the sporting men in town,
She must have trailed tllem-night by night
Now-fora blushing maiden.
Her play was out Of sight
And there was 8, II. Wallin,
In debate he'd yell and shout
He'd rant for twenty minutes
AND Knock his own side ont.
His lungs are indeed beyond compare
but his arguments were roasted.
As lie has the handling OF the news

Now I've told in simple language
What I know about the row
That broke up the society
We are lamcnting now

He Is the great II am,"
And he was ably seconcd
