The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1898-11-02

s-Across the narrow separation Of
three brief years, the two John Linds
confront each other, one looking
forward and the other backward,
each proclaiming the honesty Of his
convictions and each denying what
the other says. It is indeed striking
and curious spectacle, this joint debate
between the two John Linds, the one
declaring Ito quote from his speech at
New Ulm in October, 1883 that "all
Democrats are not murderers and horse
thieves, but pretty nearly all the muir
derers and horsethieves are Democrats, !"
and the other the candidate of these
same Democrats for governor; the one
proclaiming with the earnestness and
zeal of honest conviction that the Re-
publican administration Of state affairs
has been clean, honest and efficient. the
other declaring with the zeal of new
convert that this same administration Is
and has always been shamefully cor
rupt and inefficient; the one declaring
that the one thing needful to the safety
of the nation and the prosperity Of the
people is the continuance of the Repub-
lican party in power in the state and
nation, the other replying that Republi-
can supremacy is hostile to every Ma
tional and individual interest; the one
denouncing the claims and assertions of
the other in the strongest terms, and
each in effect calling the other liar"
Mr.. Miller then goes on to show that,
for six years, the original Mr.. Lind was
the trusted and honored representative
in congress from the Second district;
and how, while holding that high posi-
ton through the grace of the Republican
party, he succeeded in making agood
reputation by upholding Republican
principles. The article points with pride
to the mutual confidence inspired by mu
tual labors in a sublime and common
cause between the enthusiastic young
John Lind and his attached constituents
and then turns with honest grief toward
that later and older John Lind who
''now confesses that he is neither Re
publican, "a Democrat or Populist, and
pleads for sympathy on the ground thai
he is only political orphan"
Is not the contrast between these two
John Linds notably sad one?
Mr.. Eustis is meeting the opposition
forces in the discussion of state issues il
perfectly manly and straightforward
fashion. Wherever he appears upon thu
platform he not only covers the grount

Southern trade is very fourlshing.
The New Orleans Times Democrat
says that the people of the South have
every reason to be gratified with their
commerce for the year ending June
Both last. AT that city the cotton bale
receipts exceeded the figures of the
preceding year by over a half a million
bales. The freight brought to the city
by rail lines was double that of any
year for a decade, and rail and river
shipping business taken together great
ly exceeded that of the year preceding.
The war did not injure business in any
of the Southern cities, but rather inn
proved it, if anything. Mobiles ex-
ports were largely increased in grain,
cotton, flour and cottonseed meal. New
direct trade was opened up by the
South with Central American States,
and a profitable trade developed with
Japan. In manufacturing the most Of
the States made decided advances, and
generally through the South crops and
prices were good. Really the free sill
yer prophets Of evil who forecast such
dire distress for the South if the 16 to l
fad failed missed their mark sadly.

YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK.
Will Soon be an Extension Of Tel
egraph and Telephone Systems.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 14.-The
protection of forest reserves was dis
cussed to-day by United States Land
Commissioner Hermann, Special Land
Agents Allen and Newhall and Vice
President Kinney Of the Yosemite Com
mission.
1t is stated that as a result of the
conference, there will soon be an exten-
sion of the telegraph, telephone and
water systems in the Yosemite dis
tricts to the point where the Govern
ment rangers are situated. The re-
serve Is to be carefully mapped, so that
when a fire is discovered it's exact To-
cation can be at once signaled to the
nearest ranger station.
No live stock Of any kind will here
after be allowed to remain on the
southern reservation, with the possible
exception of the pine mountain sec
ton. The sentiment Of the conferees
was in favor of excluding sheep from
the northern reserve, but this may not
be done.
The Government will be urged to re-
tain reservoirs and toll roads in the
Yosemite National Park.

THE CLOSED DOOR,"
Stockton Record: Considering the
strength of John Bulls navy, his insist
ance that he shall be on top in matters
of trade and his somewhat choleric dis
position, one cannot but marvel at his
failure to lower his horns to the Rus
sian Bear. If John Bull must fight
Russia, and this is the opinion of men
who have given the situation serious
study, now is his time.
Russia is not in position to do good
work at sea, while as for France, who
| intimates that she will go to the as
s1stance Of Russia, at sea she is mostly
spectacular. IT is doubtful if she will
put up better fight at sea than the
Spaniards. On the other hand, if Eng
land is in position to fight it is on
the water. She has the ships, and there
is no reason to suppose that British
tars are less combative than when they
drove the French from the seas at the
beginning of the century. AS naval
proposition England may safely meet
united Europe.
IN THE NICK OF TIME
Santa Cruz Sentinel: Mcguire sign
ed the Populist platform Tuesday in the
nick of time. If he had delayed his
assent upon the patchwork structure
only a few hours longer it would have
cost him one-half of his nomination.
Fourteen of the fifteen dayS fixed as
the time limit for his acceptance had
elapsed. To have deliberated twenty
four hours longer on the safest terms
in which to phrase his Endorsement of
the long catalogue of heterogeneous
principles would have put him through
the chemical process Of diffusion and
converted him again into an element
ary Democrat.

The other morning Mrs. Dodo was led
to know where I'd been to the previous
evening. Not being quite clear on the
subject, and desiring to be probable. I
said that I had been to a prayer meet
ing with my friend Mann. Just then,
as luck would have it, Mann passed the
window and my wife called him in.
Mr.. Manu." said she, my husband
tells me that you went with him to a
prayer meeting last night"
Mann looked at me and then answer
ed:
That's right, Mrs. Dodo"
"And may L ask where this meeting
was held?' said my wife.
"Oh, er-at the prayer place." said
the poorS fellow promptly.
Church or chapel?'
Church, wasn't it, Dodo?"
Yes, church." I answered.
(which church," asked my wife.
"Pon me, Sam er-regret the-Saint
something" stammered Mann.
est George and the Dragon?" in
quired Mrs. Dodo, sweetly.
"Yes, that's it," he said eagerly, and
then she smiled one Of those hard, cold,
glittering smiles of hers.
Many ladies there?" she asked.
ooh, yes, both sexes; everybody prays,
no distinction, you know" he said
amy with hair like this?" and she
held up golden tinted one. I felt my
self going hot and cold, and poor Mann
was blushing like girl.
'I-er- didn't notice their hair L
er-we were praying, weren't we, Do
do?"
"We were, Manu." I said severely,
"but my wife never having been to one
of these sacred places has no idea how
women tear their hair out in their grief,
and so on; and the hair goes floating
about all over the chapel"
Didn't you say church?'' inquired
my wife of Mann.
Some call it chapel and some call it
church, 1t hasn't got a spire you see, -

"Oh, they only have monthly ser

1T can quite believe it. My husband
must have been upset, too, for he was
covered in mud"
II got knocked over by a cyclist," 1
said.
II saw the accident" said Mann,
''and the marvel is how he escaped
with his life."
did you get the mans name and ad-
dress?" asked Mrs. Dodo.
NO. but we took his number; it's
OO124," said Mann, smartly.

quired Mrs. Dodo.

knocked me over later" said.
IT shall have to send your dress suit
to be cleaned. You had better give me

pay for" said my wife, and I borrowed
