Fine HEIRS TO. 4 THRONE.
Early Exploits of the Two Sons OF the
Archduke Earl Ludwig.


Archduke Earl Ludwig.
The two young Austrian princes q
by the death of their father, Archduke
Charles Louis, are brought into the lne
of immediate succession, bear a popular
i'll repute which would have been ex-
cessive even in the Munich or Stuttgart
of a generation ago. Both are reputed
to be unable to read and write correctly
any one of the languages IN which an
Austrian ruler is supposed to be prom
cient.
After the suicide of Archduke Ru-
dolph, IN 1889, an effort was made to
train the mind of the elder OF these
cousins, the Archduke Francis Ferdl-
nand. He was sent on a tour around the
world, and the p~retense was carried to
the length Of issuing a record of obser-
vations which he was said to have writ
ten. All that he really derived from the
journey was a malady from which he is
now slowly dying.
He is the prince who scandalized Vi
emma in his youth by hating a peasant
funeral procession which he met while
riding, and compelling the mourners to
hold the bier while he leaped his horse
backward and forward over the coffin.
His uncle, the emperor. thrashed him
with a stick for this exploit, although
he was at the time a grown man and an
officer in the army. His brother Otto is
the hero of another exploit, involving a
public insult Of the grossest kind to his
own wife, for which the Austrians were
delighted to learn that he also felt the
emperor's n
In explanation. though not in defense,
of their vicious worthlessness, it is re-
membered that these young men inherit
not only the worst qualities of the de-
generate Hapsburg blood, but are grand
sons of that criminal lunatic whom
Englishmen still remember-the Nea-
politan "Bomba. Saturday Review.

N MILLAIS.
A London Critic Contrasts the T|wo-Sir
Johns Last Pictures.

Passing from MilIet to Millais, /
wonder which, were choice offered me,
l should choose t be? Should L be
tempted to choose in the race for I'M
mortal glory the eight or ten beautiful
pictures which Sir John painted in his
youth, or should 1 choose the life work,
so deep and simple and strong in its I'M
wavering faith, of j. T. Millet?
If the tSt. Agnes Eve, Autumn
Leaves" and "Ophelia" were destroyed,
the world would lose perhaps the three
most beautiful pictures painted this
century, but were the work of j. 4.
Millet destroyed, the world would lose
not only some inexpressibly beautiful
pictures, but a perception, for j. L.
Millet invented a new perception OF life,
a new state of conscience-almost a
new morality.
1 shall be told that this is a contra
diction to all [ have previously written.
I do not think so, but al explanation
would lead me far from the subject of
this article.

pictures emphasize that lack Of continu-

err time. This year he has again revert
ed to good painting.
The picture entitled ga Forerunner"
is an academy figure, marvelously well
drawn and painted. From the point of
view of a life study it could not be bet
tered, but it is no more than a life
study. The landscape at the back is SO
beautiful that it recalls his early man
ner. To praise more is impossible. The
top branches Of the trees vanishing into
the rich sky are very beautiful, and
show Sir John in possession of all his
old power over the material. In the
next room there is a portrait of a little
boy, which, if he had forgotten the
"Girlhood of st. Theresa" and some
other works, we should not recognize as
his. Then in the large room Sir John
shows a fine portrait of Lady Tweed
dale. It is not exciting. We have seen
it all before. 1t does not thrill us. But
we can admire without thrills, q graver
and more subdued admiration, but one
the less sincere. George Moore in the
London Chronicle.

UNCONSCIOUS INFLUENCE.

A Broad Street young man is sur-
prlsed at the prominence he has
achIeved as a leader of enforced fads.
lie is simply a manager in a concern,
n never anticipated the small COM
motion he has created in Wall and
Broad Streets. Last winter he decid-
ed to ear colored shirts during cold
weather, with a black tie. He did SO,
because the shirts fitted him better
than his white ones. A few days
later he noticed other young men
wearing the summer colored shirt,
and later, almost the entire street
contingent. He merely noticed this,
but thought nothing of it.
He next wanted a pair of water
proof shoes, SO as not to be bothered
with rubbers or overshoes. His shoe
maker could only fit him with heavy
yellow summer water proofs. How
ever necessity drove him, and he put
them on. Almost Immediately Wall
and Broad Streets approved off and
soon everybody stamped through
snow and slush with bright yellow
water proof shoes. Still he felt I'M
conscious Of having set a fashion.
Then the dangers from footpads
and shold-ups' came on. He bought
himself a heavy knotted walking
stick, with a big curved handle suf-
fcient in weight to kill a man. Al
though not the cane of fashions de-
cree, dis followers very soon all had
Identical walking sticks. He now was
forced to observe that his appearance
was closely copied. His hats, his
%overcoats and his clothes were dupli-
Gated as fast as he assumed them. He
is very much surprised at all this, be-
ing a quiet and modest man. But he
is convinced that where necessity
works changes in a mans appearance
or life of which the public approves,
he will have prompt following. There
can be no doubt that in the matter of
shirts, shoes and sticks, the timorous
only wanted a courageous, self-un-
conscious man to lead them on to a
necessary reform.

Genuine and Spurious hay Fever.

What q superlative comfort it is to
learn from the manual of the United
States Hay Fever association for 1896
that there is q spurious disease of hay
fever as we'll as the real thing itself.
The victim, whether he be oneOf June,
of July, of August, Of September, OF of
all summer long, may now be content,
no matter what his physical agonies, in
the thought that his hay fever may after
all be but the shadow of a curse. He
may punctuate every sneeze every head
achy spasm, every cough, with a happy
relief born of the idea. "Hal hal It's
only spurious hay fever;' how glad l

To all others hay fever may seem
more or less of a joke, but to him to
whom the summer is nothing but n
long drawn out and never ending nasal
Utilization the fever born of flowers and
hay and other botanical products is
more than serious. 1t is appalling.
Hence the reason for the existence of
this association, whose president says
in his latest address: "Don't wait at
home until hay fever comes on before
going away. This is the important
don't" And as a supplement to this
advice a list of over 100 exempt"
places are given, ranging from Califor-
MIA to Nova Scotia, where the weary
sneezer may find relief from his ex-
hausting sneezes. The White mountains
are the nearest haven of relief here
about, barring the Ozark and deep blue
ocean, which is recommended as an in
fallible deterrent. boston Transcript.

Prince Victor Napoleon.

Prince Victor Napoleon inherited 1O,-
900 francs a year from his father. His
aunt, the Princess Mathilde Bonaparte,
gives him an income of 90, 900 francs
and the ex-empress the sum of 80, 600

ladies are fond of France, and like to
live there part of the year, they give
their sums on the condition that the
prince does not use any of it for polit-
zeal agitation.

MINNEAPOLIS POPS.

The Eleventh Ward Popuist Club had
meeting last Tuesday evening, March
"a; quite a number were present. The
regular business was transacted, after
which there was a lively discussion over
the county league. Mr.. Hernen thought
that the Hennepin County League, is
self-elected body, not elected, by the
people; Mr. McElroy taking the other side
Mr.. Enger was elected delegate to the
Hennepin County League in place of Mr.
Hurnen, resigned. A finance committee
was appointed, to collect money to pay
expenses of the club.
The organization committee had meet
ing last week. and reported that four pre-
cincts are organized.
A suggestion was made by one of the
members to indorse The Representative
as an official paper of the club; every
member was in favor of The Representa-
tive and it's editor. 1t will also be brought
before the club at it's next meeting and
there is no doubt that The Representative
will be chosen as official paper. The next
regular business meeting of the club will
be held Tuesday April at p. m. at Nor
NAL College Building. &C. Fisher, Sec.
P. 81 would like to suggest to the 9TH
err secretaries of the different ward clubs
to SEND in to The Representative the
workings of the club in each ward, so it
would be more interesting, and we could
also keep posted on the different meetings
Of the wards; some of us may benefit by
same. There is no doubt that the editor
Hon. Ignatius Donnelly believes in cen
tralization of thought. so he must be de-
lighted to hear of the work done in the
interest of mankind in Minneapolis.

WE'LL SATISFIED.

declaration of the Minnesota Republicans
in favor of Mckinley and against free

ton of the straddle achieved by Kansas

have not absorbed the delusive theory that
the platform of 1892 is binding states

national body and the duty of that body

that many things touching and changing

1892. They have heard of the statement by
the silver senators on the floor of the Senate
that they wrote the 92 currency plank and
they are convinced that no such treatment
of the money question will De tolerated in
1896 1t will be seen that although Mime

Stevens, of Pennington, Dakota coun-
ty, Mimi, sends us very kind letter
and some excellent verses about our
self. which are altogether too compli-
mentary to publish. We will have to
omit them but we shall remem Der
gratefully the spirit which dictated
them. We quote the last verse:
Let us sever all allegiance.
Are we Eng lands vassals still?
Let us gain our independence;
Call it treason he who will.
We've too many idle acres,
And too many idle hands;
Let us cause great awakening
Throughout all Christian lands.
Like the brave old souls of seventy-six,
We must either Join or die
Then home and land and liberty
Be still our battle cry.
So fling our free flag to the breeze,
And lett proudly wave,
With all it's stars resplendent,
The banner of the brave"

THE POPS CARRY MOORHEAD

Moorhead Populists won in the may
orality contest: electing Samuel Fra
zier by mall plurality. Mr.. Frazier
is gentleman of good ability, good
character, and good education. These
qualifications, together with the
splendid influences of Mr.. Lanphere's
daily paper, gave him the election.
Mr.. Frazier was head miller of the
North Dakota Milling Associations
Mill, and was discharged, presumably
for being successful at the hands Of
mis- fellow citizens That is just what
the reformer is to expect at the be-
ginning of the movement. In little
while every one will want to be re-
former. We hope Mr.. Frazier will
give the city of Moorhead a faultless
administration SO far as he is able to
do so. We send congratulations to
Mr.. Frazier and Eflitor Lanphere.-

Z PROSECUTING THE BEGGARS.

Washington, March 12.-Mem bers of
the Capitol police force are doing the
best they can to prevent the solicit
ing Of aims in the Capitol, and almost
every day arrests are made and the Of
tenders usually are prosecuted for va
rrancy. Congressman Sherman, of
New York, appeared in the police
curt to-day against a man who had
solicited aims from three New York
congressman. The man was fined $2o,
and in default of payment was sent
to jail for thirty days. This man
claimed at times he had lived in the
districts now represented by Messrs.
Sherman, Chickeripg and Gillette.
lie had given names to the congress-
men. In his own defense the prisoner
said he had never been arrested be-
fore, and that he had seen better
Mr.. Sherman he had spent for food
and lodging. At times he said he had
lived on dry bread, and that it was his
intention when he returned to New
York to send Mr.. Sherman the money
he had lent him. Mr. Sherman said
he did not mind the 50, for he would
give any hungry man money for food.
but he did not relish the idea Of be-
ing imposed upon. The court said
that this business of begging IN the
Capitol must be stopped. Members,
he said, have something to dc other
than spending their time in aims
giving.
The poor congressman! What would
their $4,000 year amount to il they
had to give an occasional quarter to
the beggars? And then to think that
it is the laws they passed that made
the beggars. The miserable wretches
ought to get along without anything
to eat rather than disturb their royal
hgnesses with their opportunities. A
parade Of empty bellies, (made empty
by law, around the Capitol and the
White House, must be very offensive
to every right-minded patriot.
Let Olney call out the standing
army. and protect the Congressman
who are doing so much for the people
and the PlutOcracy!
Shoot the beggars! They have no
right to be hungry. [. D.

Next week at the Bijou will wit
ness the advent Of two popular favor
ties in the persons Of Amy Lee and
Frank Doane. who will present a
pleasing comedy drama, entitled"Miss
Harem Scarem." The play is bv a
well-known author and is described as
a powerful piece full Of strong inter
est, Astounding in comedy and alive
with bright action throughout. 1t is
said to be devoid Of anything that
suggests strained effort of dramatic
construction, and is said to abound in
characters throughout that are strik-
ing and bright. Amy Lee is a viva
cious soubrette on the order Of Lolita
and has won splendid success in the
Interpretation Of that line Of parts.
The greatest charm of her work is
said to lie in her naturalness and
sympathetic manner. She is said to
win in this piece the strongest hit Of
her stage career. Frank Doane is an
eccrentric comedian of strong type.
He is said to find in "Miss Harem

ment Of his stage attributes. The
supporting company is said to be
strong and the entire production, one
Of positive merit. The attraction
comes endorsed with splendid COM

of the Prohibition vote in Minnesota was
in 1888, when Hugh Harrison polled H.
O26 votes. The next highest was in 1892,
when VIM. J. Dean polled 1929. Hans
S. Hilleboe, candidate for governor in
1894, dropped to 6,832 votes. 1t is ap-
parent that, while the Prohibition move
ment is strong educational force, it is
not a political factor It's members are
patriotic, earnest, able and tried band
of educators; but as political party
they have ceased to have power either to
terrify their enemies or to command the
support of the people. They should re-
tain their organization for public edu-
cation, and for political power join their
forces to the Peoples party.
The fight of the liquor power in Min
nesota in 1894 was against the Peoples
rarty. The united liquor and dive in
terests of the state realized, as did the
banking and railway interests. that their
control of legislation and administration
was endangered only through the flock
ing of voters to the Peoples party stand
ard. These selfish interests saw that this
party alone contained in it the sources
Of power to take from them their grip on
the reins of government. The vote shows
that fully half of the Prohibition party
saw this also, and therefore cast their
votes with the Peoples party. We hope
to see Mr.. Jones become the Moses to
lead the remaining 5000 into the Peoples
party ranks this fall, that the united
forces of patriotism and good govern
machines of MammOn and MOaOch, of
Dives and the dives, may give way to
the new and rising party of the common
people and the commonwealth.

If free coinage Republicans have had
doubt how the political machine would
pledge the party in this state this year
they now have their doubts removed.
The state is pledged to the New York
dictum. The Minnesota Republican or

has put down the bimetallism of Wash
ington and Jefferson, of Lincoln and
Grant, and taken UP the single gold
standard of Sage and Rothschild, of the
bond syndicate and the gold brokers'
Do the free coinage Republicans Of
Minnesota propose also to change their
allegiance from the bimetallism of Wash
ington and Lincoln to the gold platform
of Sage and ROthschild? If not, their
only alternative is to affiliate in the COM
ing contest with the only party which
stands by the American system as pro-
vided for in the constitution. In so do
ing they will stand with Daniel Webster,
who, in the twenty-fourth congress, said
Gold and silver are the money of the
constitution. The constitutional stand
ard of value is established and connot
be overturned. To overturn it would
shake the whole system. Gold and silver
at rates fixed by congress constitute the
legal standard Of value in this country,
and neither congress or any state has
authority to establish any other stand
ard or dispose of this" Nevertheless
Minnesota Republicans join with Wall
street to do this very thing.
The time has come for Republican vot-
ers who have convictions in this mat
ter to exercise the courage of their con-
victions. To profess bimetallism and
vote for the Wall street platform and
candidates is a kind of cowardice and
dishonesty which by no legerdemain can
be made to appear as patriotism These
are times that require courageous and
honest men. F. N. S.
