President Cleveland has sent his
last official message. He is op-
posed to recognizing the Cubans
as belligerents, but suggests a
plan for securing home rule for
the insurgents. He touches up
the Pacific railroads questions,
and says the United States is in
no position to enterfere in Turk
ish affairs. He wants the green
backs retired and a sound finance
inaugurated. He maintains that
the present tariff law is all right
and that the revenue deficiency
will be remedied if time is given
to get the present law in full
operation. The people will re-
gard this section of his message

not one case was tried by jury.
In the case of Laura Amlie vs. liver

In the case of state vs.. Parkes, tres.

Turning Tree Into News
paper.

At a wood-pulp and paper manu-
factory at Essential, Austria, recent
ly the question was asked: "In how
short time can you turn tree into
a newspaper" The answer was given
by an actual trial. A notary public
and other witnesses were called, and
at exactly 1885 O'Clock IN the morning
operations were begun in a forest near
the factory by telling three trees.
These were stripped, cut into pieces
and reduced to pulp by mechanical
means. The pulp was thrown into a
tub and mixed with the ingredients re-
quired to turn it into paper. The
paste thus formed passed through the
rolling-machine, and at 9:34 O'clock
one hour and fifty-nine minutes after
the telling of the trees-the first sheet
of paper issued from the machine.
The paper was hurried to printing
house more than two miles away,
where the type had already been set
up, and at ten O'Clock, two hours and
twenty-five minutes from the Begin
ming of the experiment in the forest, q
printed newspaper was turned out
from the press. The owners of the
factory say they can repeat the feat in
twenty-five minutes less time.

The repu blican silver senator's
have been invited by their sound
money brethren to participate in
the regular senate caucus. This
action is very wise on the part of
the republican senators as the
silver men hold the balance of
power in the United States
senate. If the silver men in the
senate have the welfare of the
country at heart, they will put
their shoulder to the wheel and
help the incoming administration
to carry out it's promises. The
country is in no mood to stand
any "monkeying' at the hands
of half dozen silver men. Let
them give the republicans a

Hereafter all entertainments, sup
pers, etc., where an admission fee is
charged, will be advertised in these
colums at five cents per line. This
means everybody. Church socials
and church notices will still be on the
free list. We have got to establish a
protective tariff in order to make both
ends meet. We earn our bread and
butter by printing, but some people
seem to think that we do not need any
money to run our business and expect
that to advertise every thing that
comes along ''helps to fill up the
paper" We don't see it that way.
When any of these people who are
getting up entertainments go into
store and buy some goods, does the
merchant give those goods away be-
cause it "helps to draw people to his
store?" Nit! That's our fix. Bear
it in mind. For the past few weeks
we have done nothing else but set type
for notices of entertainments, etc.,
and we have got to draw the line some
time.

Petitions are being circulated

Petitions are being circulated
in Cass county urging the legis-
lators from that district to vote
for a resubmission bill at the
coming session of the legislature.
It seems to us that in the face of
the recent vote on the constitu-
tional amendment scheme our
legislature cannot pass such a
measure. The people do not
want the prohibitory law re-
pealed. The w. G. T. U. and
other temperance organizations
should rise to the occasion and
see that they are represented at
Bismarck. We are of the opin-
ion that if the money that the
different w. G. T. U. unions are
sending to Chicago to stick into
that temple were put into the
hands of the state enforcement
league, much more practical
work in the way of putting down
blind piggism would be accom-
plished. Sending money to
Chicago may be all right, but
North Dakota has greater need
for it.

The New Voters of Colorado

Rev. J. H. Ecob, Denver: Political
machinery has been in the hands of
men for generations and perfected for
uses not altogether the best, backed
by long-standing prejudices of the peo-
pie, is not easily changed in character
SO as to work for better purposes.
Accordingly, the friends of equal suf-
frage should not ask too much in
these first years of trial. The new
voters have much to learn and much
to overcome, but they have taken up
their duties with characteristic
patience and devotion.
The feminine instinct for detail is
telling most beneticially in their new
duties, for, while men are voting con-
tentedly with their party and pay little
attention to the character of party
candidates, the women are looking for
the best men in all parties and prepare
their ballots with conscientious care
which is quite revelation to hus-
bands, sons and brothers. They show
a decided tendency for independent
voting. One conspicuous result of
woman suffrage is the deepening
sense of sisterhood, the more intel
ligent and prosperous showing and
eager desire that the less fortunate
should be instructed in their new
duties so that woman's vote may not
be charged with the reproaches which
men SO freely prophesied by its
enemies.
The effect OF equal suffrage upon
women is seen in less attention to
frivolous social distinctions and
deeper and broader comprehension of
the more serious affairs of life.

LYLA'S DEADLY DRINK
Carbolic Acid Taken With Sui
cidal Intent by Mrs. Lyla
Doyle.
IS NOT LIKELY TO RECOVER.
Having Drank q Lot of the Acid
Before Being Detected.

Mrs. Lyla Doyle. 26 years old, form
erly of Quinnessec, Mich, and for two
weeks resident of this city, attempted
to commit suicide this afternoon in
her room at the lodging-house, 100
Nicollet avenue, by taking IL dose of
carbolic acid.
1t is stated that two years ago Mrs.
Doyle and her husband had q dis
agreement, the wife leaving her home.
She drifted about the country and two
weeks ago she came to this city from
Cooperstown, N. d. She met rail-
road man with whom she became in
fatuated. Yesterday he did not visit
her and she became discouraged and
told the proprietor of the house that
she was going to take her life.
She modified the statement, however.
and said that she would die if she did
not get favorable letter from her
husband who seems to have been writ
ing to her right along. The letter
came last night and she stated that he
had forgiven her and that she was go-
ing back to him. She missed her
train and that seemed to weigh upon
her mind. Just as she had taken the
poison an employee of the house
rushed in and knocked the bottle out
of her hand. She said to him, "Bill,
l am goiug," and sank into uncon-
sciousness. Doctors were at once
ummoned but they fear their efforts
will be in vain, as she had succeeded
in taking large dose of the deadly
stuff
The above appeared in the twin
city newspapers last Friday. We are
not acquainted with Mrs. Doyle and to
our knowledge have not seen her. We
are told she worked at the Union
House few weeks ago.

Kneeshaw For Senator.

The editors who are taking in the
sunny south from this state are evil
IDENTIFY improving the time and when
nothing else is at hand they indulge
in talking senatorial matters. The
Times-Hcrald of Dallas, Tex, has
the following interesting item:
The North Dakota editorial asso-
citation left last evening, on the Katy
road for Houston, Galveston, New
Orleans and other Southern cities,
having spent yesterday investigating
Dallas. They expressed themselves
as more than pleased with what they
had seen of Southern people, manners,
methods, etc., and wondered at the
size and business conditions of this
city.
Many of them called during the day
at the Times-Herald Office and in
spected it's Webb perfecting press, the
type-setting machines, business and
editorial rooms, etc.
Along with much other information
obtained from the members was the
fact that we had here United States
senator possibility with us. The edi-
tors seemed to be unanimous and en-
thusiastic as to the chances of Hon.
w. j. Kneeshaw, a prominent at
torney of Pembina, most popular with
his own as we'll as the newspaper
fraternity. 1t is thought there will be
no difficulty in electing him over
Senator Hansbrough, republican,
who was a free silverite until he saw
the tide turn for the yellow metal, and
then deserted the silver stream for the
gold gulch where political glory
could best be garnered. His other
opponent would possibly be Mr..
Cochrane, an attorney from Grand
Forks. But the editors were ready
with Kneeshaw against all comers.
