IT'S A DAISY.
Commissioners Crisman and COpp Inspect
Glendive's Big Bridge.

Glendives Big Bridge.
Commissioners Crisman and Copp
recently visited Glendive to inspect the
big bridge just completed there by the
King Bridge Company, the same con-
cern which built the Jefferson Island
bridge. The Glendive bridge, accord
ing to Mr.. Copp's statement, is 1900
feet long and cost Dawson county
about $4,000. The Yellowstone at
this point is held as navigatable
stream by Uncle Sam, although it has
been years since steamer has violated
the virginity of it's waters, and for this
reason the bridge had to be built with
draw span. The draw span is 1876
feet long and it is quite probable that
it will never be opened to permit the
passage of steamers. Glendive will
celebrate it's formal acceptanco with
great eclat on the 29th.

WAS NO ACCIDENT.
False Eumor Regarding the Ontario Mine
at EllistOn.

a etory which created considerable
excitement yesterday was one to the ef-
feet thai there has been a serious ac-
cident in tie Ontario mine near Ellis
ton. The report was started as long
ago as last Saturday and has been
daily growing in proportion. Authori-
tative statements received from Ellis
ton yesterday afternoon silences this
rumor. There has not been an acci-
dent OF any kind at the Ontario, ac-
cording to w. T. Kuehn, manager of
the kuehn Mercantile Company of El
liston, and the people of that place
have no idea how the report started.
It may Or may not have been the result

A RAILROAD RUMOR.
A Corps OF Engineers Said to he at Work
on the Beavcrhead.

Ever since the Burlington people
went through this section about a
month ago the air has been filed with
rumors of railroad projects.
A corps Of engineers are said to be
making survey of the Beaverhead
valley. OF course in such matters no
authentic information is given out and
to the uninitiated the matter resolves
itself into guessing match. Within
few years there may be several rail-
roads traversing Madison county.

LAST LECTURE in THE SERIES

Prof. Edwin Minis has been deliver
ing q series of lectures at Trinity Ep-
worth League for a number of weeks,
and last Tuesday night he spoke to
large crowd. The Daily Sun said OF
this lecture:
'.The last of the lectures in the SER
les on American authors and their
writings, that Prof. Edwin Minis, OF
Trinity College, has been delivering
before the Epworth League OF Trinity
church. was delivered last evening.
lie gave a general discussion OF Amerl-
can literature, and touched upon 1rF-
ing. Holmes and others he has not
heretofore mentioned in this series. 1t
was greatly enjoyed by the large au-
dience present, and no one who has
heard him through the entire course
but feels that he has been
instructed and benefited by these lee
lures Of the highest literary talent.
Those who have missed them, have
lost something in the way OF literary
treats. 1t is not often that such OPP
portunities come to the people to hear
such lectures without money and with
ont price to the nearer"

BRIEF NEWS ITEMS.

| DIR. Isaac n. Carr came to Durham
| with the best recommendations as
| dentist. and is meeting with success. lie
/ deserves it.
A letter from Jim Young published
| in the Morning Herald, says he is com
mo back to Durham to make speech
His letter is tame, and many OF jim
own Darty express much doubt as to his
coming until all the nominations are
made. He may come, but It IS doubtful
if he does until later in the season.
Late Wednesday evening there was
marriage in Durham at the parsonage
of the Durham Circuit The contract
ing parties were Mr.. Isaac +. Stray
horn. son of the former Solicitor of this
district. and Miss Jeffa II. Cole, Il
daughter of w. ID. Cole, who resides five
miles in the country. Both parties were
of full age, but there must have been
some objection somewhere, as the mar
rage took place away from the parents
of both parties. They are clever young
people, and will do well.
S. NJ. Holton, chairman Of the Repub-
lican Executive committee OF the eoun-
tv, has called a county convention for
Saturday. April rs, 1896 The object OF
this meeting is to elect delegates to
the State, Congressional, Judicial and
Senatorial conventions. There is evil
IDENTITY a fight on in the Republican
ranks, and the question is, who is gong
to win. Durham county people are
generally free and Independent, and the
question now is, are they going to be
controlled by few bosses?
The Herald says editorially that re-
ports sent out to Raleigh and Char
iotte papers of what the Republican
District Committee did at their meet
ing here Monday, differ from what was
told ms by other members of the same
committee" Now, the report tele-
graphed to the News and Observer,

and stands by But the Herald has got
things mixed, and ought to look them
up. DO justice to all parties. 1t is ONLY
necessary to call the Herald's attention

United States senatorship i'm sight to
add to the general interest. increase

In the election of 1892 when there was
a complete fusion of the opposition the
Republican candidate for governor, A
w Smith ran ahead of the Harrison
electoral ticket nearly 1000 votes but
the gain over the presidential ticket
was not sufficient to elect him. 1t is
conceded that there will be a wider diff
ference this year than i'm 1892 between
the vote for the national and state
tickets, and the Republicans count
strongly on electing their state ticket
even though Mckinley should lose the
electors. The conservative political
mathematicians give Morrill, a lead of
5000 over Mckinley by reason of Nor
riM' fine business administration and
the help promised by the German ele-
ment. The Populists do not admit this
difference, but claim that the state and
national tickets viii run closely to-
