WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent.

"ess 1&o S>~S" nv
ting some very bad advice
concerning the recent race
trouble in North and South
Carolina, not to try to carry
it out. These unwise advis-
ers have been trying to get
Mr.. Mckinley to order FEEDER
al troops into both of those
States, although no request
for troops Las been received
from the Governor of either.
He has been told that the
same section OF the United
States Revised Statutes, un-
der which President Cleve-
land sent Federal Troops in
to Illinois, during the rail
road riots, gave him the au-
thority to do 80 regardless
of the regularly constituted
authorities of the States. He
has done nothing further
than to cOuntenance { b 4
semi-oficlal statement that
it any Federal official in eth
er State was interiered with,
a force of Deputy United
States Marshals would b e
used to protect them, and in
case of their inability to do
SO, that they would be rein
forced by Federal troops.
Some of the rnen ordered out
Of both States, among them
a white Post Master, from
South Carolina are in
Washington, trying to pose
as martyrs, and to persuade
Mr.. Mckinley to get mixed
up in their quarrel; but ev-
cry one of them would glad
ly compromise by accepting
an appointment in Washing
ton.
There may be democrats
who are downcast over the
result of the election. but if SO,
they haven't been seen. All
those who are talking on the
subject express the opinion
that the party made a spIen-
aid showing, under the cir
culnstances, and that reduc-
ing the republican majority
in the Hoase almost to the
vanishing point, puts the
democrats in a better posi-.
tion to make a winning fight
in 1900 than they would
have been had they captured
the next House. With both
branches of Congress in their
hands, the republicans will
he certain to make lots oil
good democratic campaign
material in the next two
years.

MlSSARE ORE SHIPMENTS.

tMASSAHE OHE SHIPMENIS.
Everything is in readiness on
the Duluth, Missabe & Northern
railroad to begin the shipment
of ore from the mines to the
docks. It is not the intention of
the management, however, to
start the ore trains moving until
navigation is opened aud boats
begin to arrive from lower lake
ports. Last year shipments
were begun early and then had
to be suspended for a time be
cause of the failure of boats to
arrive fast enough to carry the
ore away. There are no boats
in the harbor now that have
been ordered to load at the Mis-
sabe docks. and until the Sault
IS opened there will be no move.
ment of ore from the mines.
Several thsusand tons of ore
were left on the docks last fall,
which will have to be thawed
out before it can be shipped.
The extension of dock No. &
Will be completed and ready for
business about May 1.

We will let the old flag rot
No matter il the public heart
With reeking anguish beats;
What recks it if the Maine was wrecked,
II slaughtered as they slept,
We're scores of brave Americans?
Soup houses can be kept
To feed Spaia's non-comlatants.
Oh, let tho cheers resound
For the statesmanlike solution
That our president has found!
Hos-Hanhas to Mckinley
And the memory of Penn
Whose peaceful course he follows
Let the voices of all men
Arise in sturdy unison
And let the rafters ring
With a hearty tribute also
To the tender Spanish King
The while we wave above us
Our bright tTi-colored rag,
For with dollar marks instead Of stars
We've marked the nations flag.

TO SHIP 100000 TONS.

George A. St. Clair expects to
place the Sparta mine which was
only opened up late last summer
among the largest of the Mesa
ba range producers this season.
He has set his mark for the sea
sons output at 100000 tons. and
believes he will go over rather
than under this mark. Arrange
ments have been made by which
a market will be found for all the
ore that can be produced, so the
output will be limited only by
the amount of ore that can be
taken out. Stripping contracts
have been let to Gulbranson
Bros. and the Drake & Stratton
company, on either side of the
property and still other strip
ping will be done at the north
end Of the deposit. The Sparta
is an open mine, the fee ofwhich
is owed by the Security Land
and Exploration company and
it's ore is considered as good as
any that comes from the Mesaba
ange.-Herald. 49,
