THE HOWARD CASE.

1t will be remembered that some
time ago John r. Howard was made
the victim of some pretty sharp spite
work down in Wright county, and
was indicted. The Indictment failed,
and finally another attack was made
upon him in Hennepin county, upon
a like charge bribing juror. Evi-
IDENTIFY the Wright county authorities
have but little confidence in the success
of the procedure and are anxious to
unload the whole matter, throwing the
responsibility upon the state. The
Times of Minneapolis says:
c. A. Pidgeon, county attorney of Wright
county, has asked the attorney general to
take charge of the Howard bribery prosecu
tion, which comes on in the Hennepin dis
irict court next month. The attorney gem
eral has consented, and SO the question as to
who will represent the state in this famous
case is now settled. Mr.. Pidgeon has done
the best thing possible, and his solution of
the difficulty will please all who are interest
ed in fair trial ofthe case. 1t is understood
that he has left the attorney general entirely
free TO employ Frank Larrabee as assistant
or not, just as he pleases. MIR. Pidgeon him-
self will have nothing to do with the trial.
He is interested in seeing it conducted fairly
and has said that he wanted it tried prompt
ly. 1t is now certain that the case will be
heard next month. The state is ready with
its witnesses and the defense has been ready
for some time.

The run Of the fire department will be some
thing unique, as the entire department will
turn out with the engines fred up and the
run will pc as realistic as if going TO an ac-
tual FIRE. twill be sight even residents of
the city have never seen in real life. as the
full department is never called out at the
moment for actual service.

The New York Sun, in discussing
the opposition to former tariffs and
the sectional support it receives, sums
up as follows:
The Dingley tariff, however, has been
made law with support from every groupe OF
states and every part OF the Union, and little
ofthe opposition to it was vigoruos; none of it
was determined. More than any other it is
a tariff by general consent. 1t was adopted
with less delay, against less resistance, and
with less controversy than any similar meas
ure ever carried through Congress:

The populist string which tied silver
and wheat SO closely is broken Sill
yer is lower than ever was known and
wheat is higher than it has been for
five years. A year ago, right here
an ounce of silver was worth 81 cents
and bushel of wheat 45 cents now
an ounce of silver is worth 54 cents
and a bnshel of wheat Is cent. That
nexorabie, natural law somehow is

1t has been reported that the Prison
Mirror, published by the inmates of
the Saltwater penitentiary, has been
compelled to suspend for want of COM
positors. While there is not a slut
in the labor market in the printing in
this penal institution, still there are
just enough compositors of a high
order to get out with the utmost reg
ularity, one of the very neatest
publications which comes to our table;
and it, is edited with ability. There
have been no strikes" and only an
occasional walk out" and in such
event the cases are promtly filed.
The Mirror is doing excellent service
and is a credit to all connected with
its management.

]. ADAM BEDE was one of Mark Hanna S
callers upon the latter's recent visit to Du-
luth, and fastened to explain his reason
therefore by saying that he was ssClondyke
Democrat" !" Very funny, of course. Ham
ma understood it to mean an Assistant Re-
publican" and gave ]. Adam the friendly
clasp. Time was when Democrats did not
seek out the leaders ofthe opposition to con-
graduate them upon victory over their late
party associates. The time will come, prob
ably, when they may regret it.-St. Cloud
Times.
Not late party associates but
early" party associates is what the
Times meant to say. Measured by
any but a populist standard, j. Adam
was a better Democrat last fall than
the editor of the Times. The only
convincing proof that he had aban-
doned democracy pure and simple he
manifested some years ago when he
deliberately resigned good, fat
Office. 1t is needless to remark that
the Times man has never shown any
like symptoms of shakiness.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

By local applications, as they cam
pot reach the diseased portion Of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
Deafness, and that is by constitutions
al remedies. Deafness is caused by
an infamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deafness
is the result, and unless the infiamma-
tion can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to it's normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever. nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed con-
ditiOu of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh that cannot be cured by Hall s

New Directions for using the
ZENITH WASHING MACHINE

Take from two to four shirts, or
their equivalent, place one on top Of
the other, with front of shirts down,
place them on the cylinder with the
collars toward the back of the ma
chine, put one of the brass rods in
place about the centre of the shirts,
bring that portion of the shirts back
of the rod over toward the front of
the machine. This operation loops
the clothes around the rod. Tnrn
the cylinder from you until the ends
of the first lot are approached, place
four more on the cylinder in the
same manner, placing the rod at or
near the end of the first lot. Con-
tinue this operation until the cylin-
der is covered. From two to three
lots will cover the cylinder. Raise
the washboard so as to give the
clothes a moderate rubbing and
scrubbing. Rub soap over the cuffs
and collars and all dingy places as
the clothes are spread in an easy po-
sition. Turn the crank toward the
back of the machine fifty or sixty
times, then open the machine, let
down the washboard, reverse the
turning of the crank and turn to-
wards the front of the machine
about twenty or thirty times and
your clothes will be ready for the
wringer. All articles of clothing
smaller than bedding wash as above
described. To wash bedding or
strips of carpet, fold quilt or blank
ct four fold lengthwise, put one end
on the cylinder and place a rod an
inch or two from the end wind it
LOOSELY around the cylinder, when
the rod is approached remove it and
lap the quilt over the end that you
removed the rod from and replace it
within a few inches of the other end,
turn the crank toward the back of
the machine only, until that portion
of the quilt which is in sight is clean,
remove the rod, roll up the quilt in
front of you until near the end, then
turn it over, and proceed as before.
If the inside folds are not clean turn
them to the outside and proceed as
before. Wash strips of carpet in
the same way except one fold and
once turning will be sufficient.
Besure to remember that the wash
board must be let down while put.
ing on clothes, turning them over OF
reversing the motion. Respectfully
The Inventor.
