If p protective tariff is right in
principle, why should not this right
be extended to states and cities
to protect the industries within their
respective borders as well as to the
federal government? Why not? We
can see no reason why the printers OF
River Falls should be compelled to
compete in printed stationery with
the cheap Chicago labor that turns
out finished work for what it costs
us for the raw material. Let the
Republican doctrine predominant SO
far as it affects the printers, and give
this city a right to lay a heavy tariff
on imported printed stationery.

Every Teacher or Scholar

in the public schools of the United States, Is
years of age and over, should have copy of
the Northern Pacific's new and beautifully
illustrated book, Wonderland '97. 1t is
especially adapted for use in the public
schools in the study of geography aud his
tory and an aid in the study of the North
west and its varied and vast resources.
The book has large amount of valuable
data, bat is not by any means compen !ium
of dry statistics.
The beautiful Lake Park Region of Mimi;
the Red River Valley of the North, the re-
markable wheat land of the country, and
Pyramid Park, where hundreds of thousands
of ca tile are raised, are described.
Yellowstone Park and its wonderful cam
yons and lakes, waterfalls .and geysers has a
long chapter given to it.
A chapter on several of the richest mining
districts of the Northwest, telling how they
were discovered and developed will be an
interesting one to everybody. Some of these
discoveries were made in very funny ways
Four great snow mountains, Old volcanoes,
on the North Pacific Coast have chapter
devoted to them which gives much of their
history.
A new mountain range, one almost I'M
known, in the Northwest corner of the
United States, is brought to the readers at
tention. 1t is glorious region, with deep,
beautiful lakes, full of new varieties of trout,
made famous by Rear Admiral of the L.
S. Navy.
Alaska also has a place in it's pages.
TIL booklet has handsome cover and is
beautifully and profusely illustrated
Any teacher or scholar can have copy by
sending six cents in postage stamps to ChaS.

Here is an opportunity which should not
be lost to obtain something of interest and

should reap the benefit of it.

have spoken in no uncertain tones
was when the measure was before the
legislature which was about to violate
it's pledge to the people to enact
similar laws in this state. It's in
fuence then might have been of SER
vice. Now it looks as though the
bosses were preparing the ground for
another pledge and another breach of
faith. They are now, 50 far as their
organ shows, in favor of anti-pass
law and they probably will be till
after election just as they were before.

It has been claimed that in a war
with Japan the United States would
be compelled at sea to fight against a
superior navy. 1t is true that the
Japanese have some good ships and
in the scrimmage with China came
out victors, but the war with China
is no criterion to go by as compared
to war with the United States.
The Chinese showed themselves to be
arrant towards and there was hardly
a show of fighting made by them.
But as g. matter OF fact the United
States has navy much superior to
that of Japan in every particular
that counts in actual combat. Japan
has in it's navy seven cruisers and
seven gunboats besides the two BATTLE
ships captured from the Chinese.
They have, however, formidable ad-
ditions to their naval strength in
process of construction. This addi-
ton consists of twelve armored
cruisers now being built in Europe
and the United States, and five
battleships, several of which are
larger than our Indiana. Two OF
these are already completed and
awaiting their crews. This will give
Japan seven battleships and twelve
armored cruisers. Against these we
have twelve battleships and eighteen
armored cruisers. In the matter Of
gunboats and other coast defense
vessels there is a strong preponder-
ance of naval strength with the
United States. Besides these ma
chimes of war, largely favorable in
strength with us, there can be no
doubt but that the science of fighting
these ships is much more accurately
mastered by our seamen than by the
orientals.

Recently the Milwaukee Sentinel
published the Nebraska anti-pass law
in full and in the way of comment
upon the law said: at is a tolerably
effective guarantee that there will be
no dictation on the part of corpora
tions in the future either as to the
nomination of candidates or the
action of legislators" This acknowl-
edgement on the part of the Sentinel
admits that the object of the giving
of passes to public officials is de-
moralizing in it's influence, and that
passes are given purely for the pur-
pose of influencing and corrupting
legislation. The Milwaukee Journal
reviews the Sentinel article and adds
''The Sentinel is right, but right at
the wrong time. The time for it to

The Democratic party established
righteous precedent when in power
in this state by forcing republican
treasurers to disgorge the interest
received on public money. This was
feather in their cap, of course.
However it was never expected that
the practice would become general.
Hon. N. P. Haugen of this city is
doing his part to accomplish this end
by paying the interest accruing on
school moneys back into the treas
ury instead of putting it into his
pocket. While the amount is small,
yet it belongs to the people, and so
long as Mr.. Haugen is treasurer, we
predict that the school district will
receive it's own.

Washington, Aug. 3.-The
statement of the government ex-
penditures and receipts for the
month of July show that the ex-
penditures were very much larger
than the receipts. The receipts
amounted to but 500, OPT 1864, and
the disbursements were no less
than $50, 10O,9O8, or an excess of
$11, O73, 5O4 in expenditures over
receipts. AS compared with the
previous month the expenditures
were Increased $27, 1855, 216. The
officials here claim that the great
increase is occasioned by the
heavy expenses at the beginning
of the fiscal year.
During the mouth there was an
increase in the liabilities of the
government of $6,790,560. The
public debt is now 1898 ,446, $40.
The coinage during the month
amounted to 1910, $50, Of which
$3.50, 900 was in silver.
