Probably Suede.

On Saturday last man committed
suicide Ia the Red River at Winnipeg.
He was seen in the water just as he
sank for che last time. The river
was dragged and the body recovered
In about an hour. He was recognized
as a man who had been working In
the woods in Hargrave's camp during
the last winter and who had been
boarding around the city since.
1t appeared by evidence at the in
quest that the man appeared to be all
right at noon; and took his dinner as
usual, that he had then stepped out
side Of the door, and was not seen
again alive. He was thought Il good
deal of ty the men with whom he had
worked. The body appeared to be
that Of Il strong healthy man Of per-
haps IS years. 1t had neither coat
nor vest when recovered; only dark
pants, blue shirt and stout CATERS.
The police found on his person only
seventy cents In cash. In his room
they found a pocket book in which
were a number of receipts and some
letters bearing the name of Thomas
Marks, in one or two instances Thos
HI. Marks. From these it appears
that he lived for a time at Crystal.
North Dakota, IN lS91-92-93. One
letter was from a brother, who did
not sign high his name. 1t was sent
from a place in Madison county, New
York. A letter written from New.
bliss, Ont, in 1891, informed him of
the death of his mother. A letter
dated Aug. IL, 1894, is from Wharton
Leng, st. Thomas, N. D. George III.
Otto and John f. Anderson are nam.
es signed to receipts given at Crystal,

A few trunks full of personal effects
were also taken to the N. p. depot.
The tickets to Grand Forks had been

The husband and his friends, how

TIE Grand Forks National bank
closed its doors last week. Hon. L.
Z. Booker is president and George B.
Clifford, vice president. 1t is under
stood that the assets are ample and
all depositors will be paid in full
without making an assessment on
the stockholders. 1t is probable that
arrangements will be made to pay
the depositors and the affairs of the
bank wound up by the directors
without the intervention of a receiv-
er. The affairs of the Fist National
in this city, of which Mr.. Booker is
also president, are not in any way in
volved by the suspension of the
Grand Forks National, a balance of
about forty dollars being the only
difference in accounts between the
two banks.
THREE boys started from Bowes-
mont last Saturday to assume respon-
sibilities of men; from what they had
learned from dime novel literature, it
was simple thing TO go out into the
world and get rich. After night of
anxiety and distress spent by their
parents, during which searching par
ties were .out in every direction, the
boys were located at Donaldson, MINI.
and brought back. There are two
lessons in such escapades, one for the
parents and one for the boys. The
parents should remember that the boy
has a natural taste for reading adven-
lures, and such reading should be pro-
vided by the parents. The boys
should notice how few grown men
make any more than bare living, and
IL so many men fail, how can weak,
ignorant boy succeed in doing more
than his parent.

A Short Career,

On Monday, f. W. Felson, the
liveryman, let young man have a
team to 60 to Emerson. He became
suspicious in the afternoon and sent
out to Louis Rolette's to inquire
about the man, who said he was re-
lative. AS the story he told was
found to be untrue. Mr.. Felson went
to Emerson and found the man had
gone on to Dominion City. Tele-
graphing there, he discovered that
the fellow had tried to sell the outfit
there and failing had gone on. Mr..
Felson got James Vanwhort with him
and they drove through the darkness
and mud to Dominion City. The
next day they traced the thief
through several towns along the line,
and round circuit of about twenty
miles back to the railroad again and
finally overlook him about twenty
miles this side of Winnipeg.
The young fellow came back across
the line without objection, but on his
arrival here made a break through the
back way of Felson's stable, and across
lots to Rushton's stable. He was
closely followed by Harry Hart, who
shut the door, stood against it and
shouted to the rest of the pursuers,
just coming up, "Here he is, I've got
him." He was found up stairs in the
hay and taken to Jail. He is about
eighteen years Of age and gives his
name as Antoine Perault., It is said
he drove stage for couple of trips to
Neche for Louis Roulette.

THE wetness of this season is with.

all farm operations are stopped, and
will be stopped for some time as the
ground is so wet. This may mean
high water in the river, and certainly
means smaller acreage of wheat
than for several years.

"Indecent Journalism"

The St. Adams Messenger expresses
its Indignation because this paper
stated that the Randolph post-office had
Enterprise, booming Mr.. Grout; that
it had been charged, and had not been
denied, that Mr.. Grout was editing the
Enterprise in his own behalf of late I;
and that no doubt Brother Scott was
well paid for his service. (No part of
which, by the way, the Messenger was
in position to deny.) To our item the
Wdtchmdn added the statement that it
was we'll known in Barre that the ex-
editor and ex-editress of the Enterprise
preferred Mr.. Stickney personally, but
had said that the Enterprise was sup
porting Mr.. Grout for purposes of rev.
enue. Making these facts public, the
Messenger thinks, is descending to a
low plane of journalism, and it calls
upon Mr.. Stickney to repudiate such
methods. 1t holds that circulating pa
pers for the purpose of booming cam
didate is an entirely honorable proceed
ure. If the editor of paper prefers
one candidate, but sells himself to on
other for the sake of the few dollars he
may realize for extra copies circulated,
it certainly is not right. The public
should be warned, so that it may be
prepared to accept the arguments of
such paper for what they are worth.
If Mr.. Grout is in effect editing the
Enterprise and using Brother Scott as a
stalking-horse it should be known, so
that editorial utterances of that paper
can be ascribed to their proper source.
We leave it for the public to Judge
whether or not calling attention to it is
an unworthy procedure on the part of
papers supporting Mr.. Stickney.-Her-
aid and News.

GrOut and Farmer Candidates,

Editor of Vermont Watchmon:-At
the state convention at Burlington,
June %, 1892, two hundred votes, more
or less, were cast for bona fide farmer
candidates for governor, and quite a
creditable, though unsuccessful, con-
test was made. In the lively and ex.
citing canvass on the evening previous
to the convention, Josiah Grout was
approached by representatives of these
farmer candidates, who believed they
had every reason to expect his support.
What his answer was they still remem-
Der, and the fact that he was among
their most active and bitter opponents
is not forgotten, nor will it be. In
1894, when Farmer Vail was a candi-
date for acknowledgement the case
was the same. Now the presumption
of Josiah to pose as farmer candidate
at this time, in the face of these facts
of political history, is going to defeat
him as surely as the sun rises on the
morning of the convention. Mr.. Grout
owns no more farms, nor is he any
more of farmer, nor as much of a
farmer, as our esteemed neighbor,
Hon. Homer W. Heaton; but no one
will ever have occasion to accuse Mr..
Heaton of posing as a "farmer candi-
date" to catch votes.

An Indignant Protest of the People,

In the Daily NeUS of Burlington
Honesty" tells the true story of the
republican caucus of week ago:
"Inasmuch as your highly enlightened
and esteemed contemporary, the Free Press,
has not found out Just how it happened
that Mr.. Stickneys friends were at the eau
Gus while Mr.. CIRCUITS were sleeping in calm
assurance, it might be grain OF satisfaction
to them to know that the result was an in
dignant protest Of the people against party
mortgages and domineering politicians.
We regret that the one thousand republican
voters stayed at home. Had they attended
the caucus Mr.. Stickney would have had
probably seven hundred and fifty of the one
thousand. Strange indeed that these voters
were not awakened to their sense of duty
by the mighty efforts of the Free Press
But no; with the combined efforts Of the
city press and Vaccinations OF the politi-
clans craft they could not gather their
forces in sufficient numbers to thwart JUS
tice. Then follow insinuations of foul play,
still hunt, the use Of money-all OF which
falls back on their own heads with greater
force than the result OF Wednesday even
ing. Furthermore, as matter of fact sew
eral who were on Mr.. CIRCUITS delegation
were supporters Of Mr.. Stickney and so
voted This perhaps may add another grain
OF comfort The efforts of the Free Press to
throttle public sentiment and convert every
one to its hobbies is certainly humilating
and should be beneath the dignity of pa
per claiming to be the leading journal of
Vermont. The school-boy effusion in
Thursdays issue relative to the caucus
should certainly bring tears OF repentance
to the eyes of those naughty Stickney sup
porters for not telling them what they in
tended doing AS the shades OF night should
fall. One thing they did, and that thor
oughly-they organized and carried that
snap caucus against great odds, did it like
men and did not desert man whom they
promised to support as did some who were
passing out tickets for Mr.. Grout Wednes-
day evening"
