trial in the case of N. P. Clarke against

The Argus enters today upon the twenty
second year of its existence, having closed
the twenty-irst volume last week. The pre-
sent proprietor has been connected with the
paper all these years. With the exception
of few months, and has put the best part Of
his life into the work of making The Argus
success. In looking back over the past we
can see where we have made great many
mistakes, but our endeavor has always been
to do that which was right and labor for the
best interests of the country and village we
have so long called home, Long Prairie
Argus.
There is not newspaper in the state o,
Minnesota which has less occasion to assume
emi-apologetic tone for anything in its
past record, than has the Argus, 1t is pre-.
eminent for its purity of tone, its broad
grasp of public questions, and itsfearlessness
in advocacy of what it believes TO be the
right, 1t is credit to the fraternity. Fur.
thermore it shows, in its every issue, that its
publication is under the direction of fine
practical printer, its Typography being we'll
nigh perfect. Mr.. sheets, its editor and
publisher is to be congratulated upon the ex-
allied position he occupies in the fraternity,

MCKLNLEY,S CABINET.

THERE seems to be but one cabinet Of
ficer definitely announced for the forth
coming administration of president-elect
Mckinley. John Sherman has been ten
dered and has accepted the portfolio OF
Secretary of State. While the northwest
would have been gratified had the cleo
ton fallen upon the distinguished and
capable senior senator from Minnesota,
yet it is confidently asserted that the
near future has distinguished and SON
genial honors awaiting him-the chair
manship Of the Committee on Foreign
Affairs, than which there is no more
honorable and Important position. Next
to the Secretary OF State, he will have
grayer responsibility in shaping the ma
ture of our relations with other nations
than any other person in the govern
mental machinery, save only the Presi-
dent himself. Senator Davis is peculiar
ly fitted tor the exalted place, which has
been held by the ablest statesmen the
country has eyer produced. He will be
a worthy successor OF the best of them
1t is reported with varying degrees OF
confidence that Hon. VIM. R. Merriam
will be rendered the Treasury portfolio.
Certainly he is equipped for the posi-
tlon. The theory of finance and the ap-
plicationsof the best thought to pract-
ical administration has been his study
during his entire successful business ca
reer. His troops of friends in Minnesota
and out CT it would rejoice to see him
thus honored.
AS to the other members OF the cabi-
net there are ruhors of various degrees
OF probability advanced, but present in
dications are that President Mckinley
will associate cabinet which will be
historic for its sagacity and strength.

HOUSE FILE Ill, passed under suspen-
sion Of the rules upon motion of Hon,
Joseph Kraker, provides for the repeal
OF the law establishing a municipal
court in the city of Sank Centre. A pc
tition signed by nearly every business
man in the city was furnished to Mr..
Kraker asking for this action, and he
promptly responded. The objection to
the court, which has previously been
urged, is the great expense which it en-
tails dpon the citv. For several years
business has. been light, receipts small,
but the expense has been in no degree
diminished. There is general municip-
pal court act which will give the city an
equally satisfactory court without ex-
pense, other than the fees, and perhaps
a few trIfing incidental charges.

MONEY TO BURN.
The New York Banks Are Glutted with
Gold.

New York. January 23.-The Finan-
cier says:
There Is no cessation OF the movement
OF money into New York Banks. The
reserve Increase for the week is 1885,
2s5. which brings the total excess re-
serve TO s57.Os7. 800 the highest report
ed in over two years. The decrease In
loans shows a small demand for funds
at prevailing bank rates Of ? and per
cent. but on the other hand there is
reason TO believe there has been some
closing OF sterling exchange quotations
which have 80 largely increased the
loan item Of New York banks. and thus
the apparent decrease in loans might
be shown in the face of domestic bor-
rowing. In other words the latter is
not on as large a scale as exchange
realizing While the banks are hold
ing to their 2 per cent loan agreement
1t is rumored some of them have al
ready or will soon reduce the rate on
current balance to ~ per cent.
The statement as whole Is interest
ing as an indication of the results
which have been forming for months.
The contraction in business previous to
the election: the heavy export sales and
liquidation in all lines has forced 1a
New York an immense fund Of idle
money, attracted in many cases by the
small interest paid on balances. OF
course the piling up OF this money
could not occur were business active,
but there are signs that capital is be-
coming restive and is endeavoring 10
seek channels where it can find returns
With cheap money and fewer debts
than at any time since the panic. the
chances favor a revival of 'busi-
ness on sure foundation. 1t will be
recalled that the bond sales OF the part
few years furnished an opportunity to
relieve the banks OF a large amount
of idle money. but no such outlook can
be looked for now. The money must
lie where it is or go into Investments
of another character. The recent rapid
rise in gilt-edged securities like govern
ment bonds emphasizes a point that
money is seeking a profitable field, but
this Is narrow one, and will have
to be expanded. Then general COM
mercial and industrial revival may be
looked for with certainty.
