SENATOR MONEY.

II Is well known that the Mis-
sissippi Senators were against annex
alton but Senator George died, and
in his place is Senator Money In
Munsey's Magazine for November,
Senator Money comes out with an ar
tcle entitled "Our Mid-Pacifc Out
post" which does not leave the reader
long i'm doubt as to the new Senator's
views on the annexation question.
Senator Money was here some eight
or nine years ago, being then Repre-
sentative, and spent some little time
on the Islands. Like most men who
have visited the Islands he sees the
advantages of the Americanizing in
situations and the necessity of draw
ing closer the political union, and, In
fact, comes out as good annexation
list.
The article in question gives a light
sketch of the Islands, of the various
nationalities, not always compliment
anu ShNlN lOuNhCS upon lliN lttN-
er history of the group. The Senator
does not approve of the action of Mr..
Stevens. and on the other hand he
strongly disapproves of the action of
President Cleveland, which he calls a
"blunder." He says: "The Unit
ed States, above all other ma
tions, has always strenuously
insisted that the de facto and
not the de jure government is to be
recognized. The revolutionary origin
of our government demands this"
But" he goes on to say, "let the
blame of these transactions rest where
they will; a study of the official and
commercial relations of the United
States and these Islands, of the enor-
nous development of the Pacific coast,
the assurance of am isthmian canal,
the possibilities of grand Pacific
coast commerce, the general march of
events, show that the fact of anneXa-
ton must, sooner or later, be a logi-
can consequence.
Senator Money shows tina the motley
population of Hawaii is a mere buga-
boo, and that the United States assim-
Hates through Castle Garden a far less
desirable population every year, many
times greater than the total popuIa-
ton of Hawaii.
ator Money has given the Hawaiian
question much thought and that when
the debate upon the treaty comes up
in the Senate, there will be yet one
more Senator on the annexation side
, than there was.

The days are dark and
dreary; the nights are dark
also. Darkness comes early,
too. The moon is a bit I'M
reliable-but our lamps--nev-
er. The subject of lamps is a
good one at the present time.
We can talk about lamps be-
cause we carry a stock that
cannot be excelled in Homo
lulu. They come in all sizes,
styles, and prices, We have
hanging lamps, from moderate
cost to elaborate designs; hall
lamps; piano lamps; banquet
lamps; lamps for the boudoir;
ckel.plated lamps for stud
ents; bracket lamps; two,
three and fortnight chande-
liers. We have mammoth
Rochester lamps which can
give electric arc lights cards
and spades for brilliancy. Some
people go through the house
in the middle of the night
playing blind mans buff over
tables, chairs and other old
things, in vain attempts to
locate a particular object, when
if they had small night lamp,
such as we sell, they might
have avoided personal injury
and the breaking of com
mandment. A piano lamp
would add wonderfully to the
appearance Of your parlor-
why not get one now? 1t will
make your home comfortable
and comfort and happiness
90 hand in hand. Besides,
you can get one without
spending the last dollar you've
got.

When an Arctic expedition starts
out it seems always safe to say that
another expedition will have to be
sent to see what has become of the
first. Following the regular plan,
Nansen's celebrated exploring ship,
the Fran. started November 1st to
look up the Andree balloon in the di-
rection of King Charles Promontory,
while another steamer has been char
tered at Tromsoe and has gone to
Spitzbergen for a like purpose. The
search for the Andree balloon is very
likely to become like that for the Ere
bus and Terror of the middle of the
century. There is no reason to think,
dree. He expected possible absence
of twelve months. The failure of the
pigeons is not to be wondered at. 1t
is $40 miles from the North Pole to
Tromsoe, the homing place of the pig
cons. These birds have gone from Bel
GUM to Rome, 800 miles, but, out of
the number sent, only a small pro-
portion did the journey, which took
fifteen days. And then wherever the
pigeons stopped to rest they could find
food. In the Arctic regions there is
neither food not opportunity for rest.

What destruction civil war brings
about is shown by the condition of the
Cuban sugar supply. Last year the
stock on hand October 81 was 41,209
tons, this year for the same six prin-
cipal ports the stock is only $3.50,
which means that people engaged in
sugar are just eight times poorer than
they We're year ago.

The Firemen'S Tournament.

At the annual meeting Of the Col
umbian Interstate Firemcn's asso-
citation at Rock Rapids last week it
was decided to hold the tournament
at Luverne- on July End and 3rd
Luverne offered to- put up $500 in
cash prizes, and no other town put
in bid. A resolution was passed

South Dakota towns to the associa-
ton in 1893.
It was decided to adopt new rule
at the tournament this year in regard
to entering races. b very team which
takes part in the tournament must
do so in good faith and run in each
race. This will not allow team to
stay out Of the races until the one
they particularly want to win comes
off. If any such. proceedings take
place the guilty team forfeits all
rights to any prizes.
Ellsworth having captured the
hook and ladder race three successive
years now owns the championship
banner, and to replace the prize, a
$25 silver bugle has been purchased.
The officers elected for the ensu-
ing year are: President, G. G. Cot
trell, Luverne; secretary, A. G. Mead,
Luverne; treasurer, Bert Schock, Lu-
verne; first vice-president, A. Tofel-
meyer, Pipestone; second vice presi-
pent, j.. G.. Grimes, Window. The
Board of Control consists of NJ. J.
Murphy, Ellsworth; DR.. G. A. Palm
er, Luverne; G. S. Stone, Pipestone;

The Council Committee on Fire held 4
peach of a session. last night. 1t met at
half past seven o'clock and adjourned at
twenty minutes after eleven.
The occasion was the annual hose buying
contest, and it was a go-as-you-please
race.
1t is the policy of the city to buy each
year about two thousand feet of the best
hose obtainable. and tenders were invited
from manufacturers for about that guam
tity this spring. Something like n dozen
bids were sen, in and six or seven repre-
sentatives Of companies were present last
night with samples of their wares. After
the proposals had been opened. each repre-
sentative was called in 10 explain the fine
points of his goods. and this naturally
took up n large amount of time. Then
most of them had 10 be called back a sec
ond time, and thus il came about that
eleven o'clock struck before the Commit
tee got to the point where a motion TO do
something could be made. After much
discussion 1t was agreed TO buy 1909 feet
of three-ply Baker fabric hose. from the
Gutta-Percha and Rubber Manufacturing
Company. OF New York. az 75c. per foot,
the city TO furnish couplings, and 600 feet
OF Paragon hose. at 15c per foot, from the
Eureka Fire Hose Company. This con-
sumes the 1920 appropriated for hose in
the annual appropriation ordinance. The
question of hose for the chemical com
panies. 500 feet of which was estimated
for, goes over until the Chief can make
a more careful examination of the needs
of the two chemical companies.

John Parshall, prominent and we'll
TODD farmer of the upper part of the
county, committed suicide yesterday
morning by hanging himself About
nine o'clock yesterday morning Char
les Conoway, an employe of Parshalls,
was hauling coal and had an occasion
to go into the barn for something. He
was Mortified to see Parshall suspend
ed with piece of rope from one of the
rafters of the barn. Parshall was dead,
but his body was yet warm. 1t is sup
posed that he had been dead about an
hour.
From all appearances it was evident
that Parshall had been determined that
every means should be taken to end his
life. Around his neck was a moose
which was not drawn and was large
enough to encircle two heads instead Of
one. PaTshalrs legs were drawn up to
his body and if he had let them down
his feet would easily have touched the
floor. He was also hanging in one of
the stalls, and if he had felt inclined
towards changing his mind when he
was choking he could easily have put
out his hands on either side and saved
himself by grasping the boards be-
tween the stalls. Death was caused by
strangulation, as Parshall's neck had
not beea broken. The hired man was
the last person to see Parshall alive.
He and Parshall had gone out about
seven o'clock to do some blowing in
the cornfeld. The hired man was
somewhat surprised TO see Parshall
quit work suddenly and start off to-
wards the barn. He supposed Parshall
was after something and did not pay
any further attention to him.
II is supposed that Parshall commit
ted suicide in fit of temporary insan-
ity. His wife states that she has no.
ticed for year past that his mind oc-
casionally became unbalanced, but
never suspicioned that the idea had
ever entered his head of committing
suicide. Parshall leaves a wife but no
children except an adopted daughter.
He was in good financial circumstances
and owned the farm on which he lived,
about 400 acres and other property.
For many years he conducted a dairy
and had a large milk trade in this city.
He disposed of this the first of January.
He was IS years of age. No inquest
was held. Coroner Schultze started for
Glenn's run Yesterday afternoon, but
after going a portion of the distance he
learned that it was no use TO hold an
inquest. as there was no doubt about
the manner of Parshall's death, and his
wife desired that nothing of the kind he
held. The deceased will be buried at
Short Creek cemetery, the funeral to
occur Sunday morning.

4 meeting of the Good Government
League was held last night in the lecture
room of the Fourth Street Church, accord
ing to the announcement as made in yes
terday's Register The statement. made
in the evening paper to the effect that
the Register had published that the civic
federation would hold a meeting, was
wilful untruth. At the meeting last night
less than fifty persons were present. The
meeting was presided over by Rev. r. r.
Bigger, president Of the League. George
Hastings. the secretary, was also present.
The meeting was opened by n devotional
service. Allan y. Steen. president OF the
local c. L. Union. made an address on
the topic of why We Should have a
Good Government League"
Rev. Samuel Schwarm. pastor Of the
English Lutheran Church, also made an
address upon the subject why Chris
tians Should Be Prominent in Municipal
Affairs" Rev Mr.. Schwarm argued that
there should be more religion in citizen
ship and that upon Christians rests the
responsibility of holding up good and
moral government. The responsibility
resting upon citizens in this country was
greater than in any other because in this
nation the people were sovereign, and 1t
is the Christian people Of the land who
are accountable for good government.
Following Rev. Mn Schwarm'S address,
the president. Rev. Mr.. Bigger. read
somewhat lengthy paper giving history
of the League and setting forth the OBJ
iects and the results expected TO be at
tanned through its organization.
Secretary Hastings then read the min
utes of past meetings and read the re-
port of the Executive Committee. includ-
ing the work of the committee in devising
constitution and set of bylaws for the
conduct of the League. The reading Of
the constitution led to considerable dis
cussion Ii was at first adopted, then re-
considered. amended, and then left open
again for further amendments. y some
what peculiar pr5dicament was brought
about by the query made by Rev. DR..
SOOy as to whether the League was per-
manenty or temporarily organized. The
fact became clear that the League had
been permanently organized al a meeting
held last December and officers had been
elected without any constitution having
been framed For this reason il was
necessary to hold another election of Of
ficers in order TO observe the constitution
adopted. Upon the notion OF ir. Peter
Boyd. the matter was Strengthened out
by declaring It the unanimous sentiment
of those present that the officers who had
previously been elected BE- declared the
permanent officers Of the League. The
meeting finally adjourned with the under
standing that another meeting was sub
ject to the call of the Executive Commit
tee. The ministers present last night were
