love. You may loosen your hand, but
he will not loosen his.-Lyman Abbott.

The Helpless Lord Chancellor.


The responsible office Of chairman
or president of legislative body is one
that generally carries with it both pow
ers and privileges. There are, however,
exceptions to the rule. In the British
house of lords it is not the lord chancel-
lor but the whole house that is addressed
as my lords
The speaker is the sole judge Of all
questions of order in the house of COM
mons. In the house of lords such mat
tiers, when there is conflict of opinion,
are decided by the whole house and not
by the lord chancellor.
If several mem bers of the house of
commons rise simultaneously to take
part in debate, the speaker decides
who shall speak first, but if two or
more peers rise together in the house of
lords the lord chancellor cannot decide
who shall first be heard. 1t is the voice
of the house that determines.
Happily etiquette is so strong in the
gilded chamber that it rarely happens
when the house by cries expresses its
desire to hear one Of the contending
peers that the others do not give way
But some years ago there was notable
scene over the question whether a peer
who had risen from the front Tory
bench should be heard in preference to
peer who had risen from the front
Liberal bench.
Neither noble lord would give way,
and to bring the curious situation to an
end Earl Granville moved that the Lib
eral peer be heard. The house divided on
the question and decided by big ma
jority that the Tory peer should be
heard first
1t is difficult for the average man to
understand why the lord chancellor
should not be able to exercise authority
which is vested in the chairman Of
every public meeting, but there is a
subtle constitutional point involved in
this apparently ridiculous procedure.
All peers are equal as Legislators in
the house of lords. No one of them can
be vested with authority over the others.
Therefore, when a point of order is in
volved it is the whole house and not
the lord chancellor that must decide the
issue. -London Sunday Magazine

This condition may
Lead to serious illness.

First Alaskan Railroad.

The climate of southern Alaska al
least is not too severe to admit of the
building of railway in midwinter.
The contractors for the first railroad III
Alaska expect to have their line ready
to transport freight and passengers by
Jan. 10.
The road will be short one. The
first part of it, from Dyea to Dyea can
yon, at the foot of Chilkoot pass, will
be only eight miles long on the level.
At the mouth of Dyea canyon the as
cent of the pass begins. Here the road
will be metamorphosed into what is
called an aerial tramway. 1t will be
divided into stages to suit the steep as
cent. AT intervals of every hundred
feet across the pass strong iron supports
will be planted firmly in the earth, and
across these will be strung the cables
which support the cars. From Dyea
canyon to Sheep Camp, a distance OF
four miles, the first aerial line will be
stretched. The average ascent here is
$50 feet TO the mile. From Sheep Camp
TO Summit, 80 miles, is the second
stage. Thence down the other side from
Summit to Crater lake the third aerial
tramway will convey the miner and his
goods. The builders of the road estimate
the outfit for 300 miners at 1910 tons
weight, and they say they can put this
amount of goods and passengers over
their route in one day. 1t will undoubt-
edly be the best paying railroad in the
world.
If now some equally enterprising
firm will quickly construct road
around the dangerous part of the rapids
of the Yukon, the Chilkoot route will
at once become the grand highway to
the Klondike.

He's Not a Theologian.

MIR. EDITOR:-
am not theologian nor teacher
of theology; simply a humble layman.
| have been interested in the articles
in the column From the People" for a
few weeks past, especially the one
signed Anxious Enquirer" because ii
seemed to me TO come from an honest
purpose to secure real help. hope
shall not be called presumptuous if in a
partial manner | may try TO give help
First, let me give a concise and, to
me, comprehensive answer, in the
fewest words and yet | can see how
this answer, To one who has not made q
study of the principles of Christ's teach
ings, may not be clear without explana
tion and illustration, which cannot be
put in an article of this kind. But
am sure any of the pastors of Paw Paw
churches would be glad to spend hall
day in making it clear to any honest
seeker.
What must do to be saved?" The
answer to that question, il seems to me
depends upon what one means by sal
vation. If we mean by salvation what
must a man do to be justified and as
sured of final acceptance, | would
answer: Believe, repent, confess and
be baptized into the remission of sins
or in order that you may be justified
and, when once justified, live the life
laid down in the ethical and religious
teachings of Christ, our Savior, all oi
which teachings are comprehended in
these words, Thou shalt love the Lord
thy God with all thy heart, might, mind
and strength, and thy neighbor as thy
self"
If you really want to know what and
how 10 do to be saved, my brother, take
that Bible of yours and under the head
of What must do?" read Acts 237-3S
Acts 16:3031, Rom. 1919, Is. 55:7, Is. 53

The true northerner., 1898-01-05

An impassioned orator who thinks he
thinks hs has great mission to uplift
the downtrodden masses declares that
mo man can acquire 500, 900 in long
lifetime unless he does it by robbery. "
Probably it would be impossible for the
orator who made this statement to get
800, 900 except by stealing it, But
when he says nobody can do il he
dashes his little brains against a solid
wall of fact.
Let us see. There is the sweet song
bird Patti. Her earnings half dozen
years ago from her voice alone footed
up considerably over $1,000, 600. Did
she rob those who gladly paid their
money TO hear her matchless music? A
thing is honestly worth just what people
are willing to pay for it, PATHS sing
ing was worth over + 900, 900 to those
who loved to hear it; otherwise they
would not have paid so much for the
privilege of listening.
Let us see again. There is farming,
which the impassioned orator in ques-
tion would probably claim to be the
most toilsome and poorest paid occupa-
tion of all. Well, in one of the eastern
states there is farmer, now a century
old, who is worth 500, 900. He had no
exceptional advantages except clear,
shrewd head and determined will. In
an interview not long since he said :
"a man should lay up 81, 900 for every
year of his life. That is what L have
done off my farm. His farm is one of
the show places of his neighborhood,
and he himself one of the most respect
ed citizens far and near. Simply by
using his brains and putting his heart
into his business he accumulated 800,
900. Did he rob anybody?

TnE onnonents of Senator Hanna

THE opponents of Senator Hanna
have organized both houses of the
Ohio Legislature, and it now looks as
though he would be retired to private
life. The republican caucus will be
held this evening, and the balloting
will commence one week from to-
day. The personal success or failure
of Mr.. Hanna is, it seems to us, a
matter of minor Importance, but we
do not believe the republican major
ity in the Ohio Legislature will be
justified in letting their personal pre-
iudlces against the senator so lar
warp their Judgment as to permit the
election of democrat, or even sill
yer republican, to the United States
senate, thus fostering very serious
opposition to the national admlnlstra-
ton and jeopardizing the possibility
of carrying republican policies into
effect. If Senator Hanna's enemies
can defeat him and elect another
thorough republican, the Northerner
has not word of protest to offer. On
the other hand, we believe Mr..
Hanna to be the most maligned and
misrepresented man in American
public life today, who merits from his
party, for his great work in the last
campaign, far greater measure OF
gratitude than some of its members
are showing to him.

In Mennrian.

The many friends of Mrs. Aleck Aus.
tin, who passed so suddenly out of this
life December IL at the age of 46, will
look to the Northerner for something
more than the brief mention of her
death.
Mrs. Austin, or May, as she was
generally called, was one of those happy
hearted, CHEEKY women whom the world
loves TO meet, nearly always well, and
always ready to minister to the wants
of her loved ones, and the last labor of
her life was in the loving care of her
mother, who had been sick for many
weeks and whose death followed her
daughters, within few days. She was
faithful daughter, as we'll as loving
and devoted wife and mother. She had
been very sick for over four weeks Yet
the family looked confidently forward
To her recovery, assured that at Christ
mas time she would be able to Join
them in making the day merry. as usual.
Alas, for human anticipations. She
was suddenly taken worse, and while
her husband was on his way for the
physician, and her daughter and son
were watching over her, she ceased to
breathe, and the awful shadow of death
shut out all the sunshine of this once
happy home. The family have the
sympathy of all who know them, i'm this
night of their sorrow. A. b.

THE most unique method for the
investment of savings deposits by the
government, IN event of the establish
ment of postal saving banks, is that
proposed by General Roy Stone, act
ing president of the good roads league
of America. He would have the
government purchase county road
bonds, the money to be used for the
establishment of better highways, a
low rate of interest being paid by the
counties on the bonds. Mr.. Stone
contends that such a system would
not be more expensive to the tax
payers than the present unsatisfactory
methods of maintaining public high
ways.

To men who mad borrowed money
when wheat was worth one dollar a
bushel, Mr.. Bryan's argument OF last
year, when wheat had fallen to fifty
cents bushel, that since wheat aud
other commodities had deprecated 20
half their former value it would be an
honest proposition for them to pay off
their debts in ffty-cent dollars, seem
ed rational and equitable. This he
claimed would not work a hardship
upon the creditors, because with their
ffty-cent dollar they could still buy
a bushel of wheat; but since wheat
has advanced to one dollar they see
the fallacy of his argument, an
evidence of which is in the vast num-
ber of mortgages and other debts
which are rapidly being paid off.

The tulip craze of century ago
promises to be repeated in some meas

that Langtry won in one race 5000, 00O

nous running blood up several points.

government of Hungary paid an Irish

old thoroughbred Galtee More. Charles
Read of New York few years ago paid

price on record for a horse, however, is
