500 IN GOLD.

We publish this morning the first two
issues of the first set of the G o b e
Prize Puzzle Pictures. Instructions for
sending in answers to these have been
made SO explicit that we think no one
can make an error. There will appear
in all thirty-siX pictures, in six SETS of
six pictures each. Two will pe publish
ed each Friday, two on Sunday and
two on Wednesday, and each six con-
stitute a complete set. Below each
picture will appear printed matter tell
ing exactly what is to be done in or
Ger to solve it correctly and win a
prize. Do o send in solutions of any
one or two pictures, but only of six at
a time, and of the six hat constitute
a complete set as numbered. Cut out
the pictures and paste the six of them
on a sheet of paper, writing your name
and address plainly at the top and the
answer required below each picture.
Mail this at the earliest possible mo-
ment to the Manager of the G o b e
Prize Puzzle Picture contest at st.
Paul. The person who first solves all
the pictures correctly, or who is the
first to send in the greatest number of
correct answers, will receive $50 in
gold, and the second, third and follow
ing in order will receive the prizes an
nounced in our columns.

of mailing these replies the determin-
ing fact. Prizes will be awarded, not
according to the date at which replies
are received at this office, but accord
ing to the dates stamped upon the en-
velopes by the United States postal au-
thorities. This will give equal oppor-
tunity to those at a distance with those
who reside in St. Paul, and make the
competition perfectly fair and open to
our readers in all parts of the North
west. In this connection we wish to
impress upon competitors the necessity
of seeing personally that their letters
are plainly stamped when deposited in
the mail. In some of the small country
postoffices hand stamps are used whose
impressions are frequently ~illegible.
Let every contestant see to it, when he
mails his letter to the C o b e, that it
is postmarked plainly. If it should
happen in any case that the date of
posting was entirely ~illegible, the letter
could count only from date of receipt.
This is not likely to happen, and will
not happen if all who enter the lists
take care that Uncle Sam does his duty
in stamping their letters.
Every letter received will be regis
tered carefully on books prepared for
the purpose by the date of its deposit
in the mails. and the prizes will be
awarded, as announced, to that reader
of the G 10 b who shall first send in
the greatest number Of correct replies.
There are 500 in gold and six free sub
scriptions to the Daily 10 e wait
ing for those whose intelligence is
quickest and surest. Let everybody
take a hand, for no one can pick a win
ner. We hope to receive a perfect wa
lanche of replies to u Prize Puzzle
Pictures, to stimulate interest in and
study of our country's history, and to
make a dozen people supremacy happy
when the day arrives for announcing
the result.

RATES IN THE DAKOTAs.
Cases Come Up in Both States the
Snme Day.

By an odd coincidence the rate cases in
North and South Dakota come up in courts
on Monday, and their fms. is being patient
ly awaited by the railroads and the public.
1t will be remembered that the law requiring
the commissions to make minimum passenger
and freight tariffs was passed last winter.
legal details, so the situation in both states
is to all intents identical.
The South Dakota roads secured am order
from the court requiring them to show cause
why a restraining order should not be issued.
whereas in North Dakota the lines secured
the temporary injunction, and must file their
answers within a specified time. The whole
matter is one of fairness of rates, both
freight and passenger, and it is probable
that a master in chancery will be appointed
to take the evidence and report to the court

It's miserable luck" said William Will
Jams, the proprietor of the California lunch
wagon, as he kicked at a portion of the
wagon, which had just been Quilted by fire
last evening. 81 had just stocked up with
$15 worth of ham. eggs. chickens and other
things, and now the whole thing is burned
up. But I'll come out on top yet, even if it
does look wrong just nOw."
Williams has a lunch wagon, and stands
evenings at Seventh and Washington streets.
Last night at s o'clock he left the stand in
charge of a youth, who he called Smiley -
and started out for a walk. He had gone but
four blocks when he had a 'hunch" that
something was wrong, and started back, only
to find his wagon in flames. Smiley" it ap-
pears, had not understood the proper plan to
light the gasoline stove, and this caused the
blaze. Williams estimates his loss at SO.

Tom Reeds opinion of that 10 per cent
discrimination clause against the bonding
privilege would look interesting in print. No
body is more deeply interested than New
England, and how Chicago managed to steal
such a march on Tom and all the rest of
the representatives from New England and
the Northwest is a pertinent question.-Min-
neapolis Journal.
Tom says that all he knows about it is
what he reads in the papers. After he has
heard from his New England constituents
he may think he was mistaken in thanking
the Almighty that this is not a deliberative

The 'ready-made" editorials, ground out
principally to suit Eastern nabobs, and pro-
miscuously spread over the country are, to
say the least. IAN open insult to lovers of
free and Independent thought and action. Nc
matter how aptly these writings portray the
political conditions of the nation, the prac-
tice in itself is abominably bold and is little
short of a brazen attempt to subsidize the
~press.-Spring' Grove Herald.

agrees with the Alexandria Post-News and
neither uses the hand-me-down editorials nor
~justifes their use. Will Mr.. Mitchell see that
he is duly castigated?

gest to his readers on the farm that they

Wheat was again on the t~oboggan slide yes

Minneapolis and Chicago. In view of this
sudden change in the tone of the market,
the public are tempted to ask, was the re-
cent advance legitimate, or was it merely a
movement engineered by spectators Mime

Or was it merely Providence moving again
in one of its mysterious ways its wonders to

the reins of government are placed in the
hands of that party.-Wheaton Reporter.
No doubt about its having struck you;
knocked you senseless. What party held the
reins in 1873 and what kind of prosperity
did it give US until 1879? What party held
them in 1884. when that panic hit the coun-
try and the cry of hard times was in the

AS TO BASE BALL.

Baseball is slowly but surely losing
its claims to responsibility and o
remedy must be found If the men who
are financially interested expect to
continue to have the patronage of de-
cent people. For the present state Of
effairs it looks rs il the sporting writ
ers of the country are to blame in o
large degree. The beams In their owl
eyes interfere with their vision whei
the home team is at fault, and all their
censure is reserved for the crimes OF
ssthe enemy" A case in point occur
red in the effete east, the other day.
Captain Robinson, of the Baltimore
club, deliberately blocked the Louis
Vile catcher's throw to catch Quinn
stealing second base IN the last inning.
1t was an illegitimate action and Qninn
should have been declared out, thus
making the game a tie; but as the act
was committed by a home player, 1t
was noticed that not a baseball writer
of the B fillmore morning papers men
toned the circumstance. Had condi-
tions been reversed, a howl would have
rended the air about "dirty ball
playing" and A'robbery." Attention
is called to this instance merely to
illustrate the point Of how the sins OF
the home players are overlooked. 1t
a readily be seen That the knowledge
of this fact emboldens them to carry
things with a high hand. One way Of
correcting the evils gradually growing
upon the national game, is to make
reports Of each contest truthful and
bipartisan, giving blame where blame
is due without fear or favor. Certain
iy, the people, who pay their money TO
see a baseball game should be protected
from such a burlesque on sport.

MR.. W. l.. CROCKETT, of Puerto de

exoau tive review of the new tariff. bill
from The pen of Judge Lawrence,
president OF the national wool growers
association. Judge Lawrence is a
careful observer of events, and es-
pecially we'll posted on the wool in
dustry. He did not accomplish all he
fought so earnestly for in the new
tariff bill, but still much was obtained
for the woolgrowers, that would not
have been obtained but for the earnest
eff put forth by Judge Lawrence
and his hackers. The fight for an
ad quste protection for the wool grow
ers' interests, will be kept up until the
irregularities and mistakes OF the
present bill are rectiied and remedied
and TIM wool interest gets Its legiti-
m tie rights and protection.
