The adoption of the primary NOM
mating system in this county has been
considered by many republicans for
some time, and the following from the
Watertown Public Opinion, since that
system has been in vogue there for
several years, should be Il valuable EN-
dorsement. "The continuation of the
primary system for nominating count,
candidates, in the belief of the Public
Opinion, is one of the means to the de-
sired end. Under it there is much less
opportunity for manipulation I'm
der it the party boss or would-be boss,
Or whatever term may be applied to
express the same thought, would be
largely shorn of his power, and the
rank and file would be gwen an oppor-
tunity to have as much to say in the
formation of the ticket as the "big-
gest" manipulation in the land. The
vote of one man would count as much
as the vote of another. There would
be no States to make up or smash. 1t
would be useless to attempt to form
'slates,' for tho rank and file would
have as much to say about the slate
business as any body else"

The Bald Mountain News has gone
and done something that we suppose
that every newspaper sometimes feels
inclined to do. 1t says: 1.-The News
wishes to that it will not ac-
cept complimentary tickets in the flu
ture and will charge the usual price
for announcing any event where an
admission fee is charged. Every line
of type costs money and in several in
stances the News has been very gener-
Gus i'll calling attention to coming
events and lavished them with glory
after they had taken place, aud then
was not even compensated with a sin
gle paltry ticket. To prevent these
oversights the News has decided to pay
for its admission to everything, and
likewise to charge for its services in
an advertising way. Cards of thanks
and resolutions of coincidence will be
charged for at the rate of fifteen cents
per line. Boquets at the same old
price,"

found for purposes Of irrigating agri-
cultural land in South Dakota. 1t also
provides for the retention of storm

believes it will be favorably reported
from the committee on irrigation, of
which he is Il member. Congress is
giving much attention to these mat
ters at the present session and Mr..

Secretary Wilson abates none of his
work in rendering practical assistance
to the farmers. The original appro-
priation, Immediately following the
war, made by congress for the free dis
tribution of seeds, provided for the
purchase of new, rare and valuable
seeds and plants and this appropria-
ton has been r%eplenished year by year
by each succeeding congress. But the
free distribution of seeds has come to
be Il distribution of seeds of every sort
and value and mostly through the
hands of the congressman themselves.
Required by congress to distribute the
seeds Secretary Wilson has endeavored
to carry out as far as possible the let
ter and spirit Of the original in pro-
curing rare and valuable seeds for dis
trihution and these with reference to
the localities adapted to their growth
AS is we'll known, his first attempt. pro
| curing the best European beet seed
and distributing it throughout the
country for experiment. vas produc-
tive of excellent results. numerous
beet sugar factories being under con-
%struction in consequence. Last sum-
mer Mr.. Wilson conceived the idea
that valuable seeds and plants, un-
known to American agriculturalists,
must exist in the far east, where mel
have cultivated the soil for thousands
of years and he at once arranged to
send a scientist to investigate and pur-
chase such species as would be likely
to prove of value to America. The re.
suit of this is that three carloads of
rare seeds and plants are now at the
department of agriculture awaiting
shipment to the various government
experiment stations and to practica.
American farmers. The secretary be
lieves that the department has secured
some very promising grasses which
may prove of great benefit in semi
arid regions and in our system of crol
rotation as practiced by III farmers.

UNCLE MOSES A
He Prayed Eloquently. but Gestured q
Little Too Eurcihly.

Uncle Nose came down from the
country to visit his son, who worked in
the livery stable. Uncle Nose was a
deacon i'll a little country church and
was noted for his long, fervent prayers,
but when his son Ike took him to tho
colored church i'll the city and when he
heard the organ and gazed upon the
we'll dressed darkies he felt as if the
Lord was Il long ways off. Uncle Nose
had met the parson the day before, and
what was his surprise when that person
said during services, "We'u all join in
pra'r wild Brother Nose Smith," Uncle
Nose went down OH his knees and threw
his deep voice and soul in q prayer
which shook the rafters. AS he came to

ing and his voice was bringing each

This is the way it appears TO t!!r Min
neapolis Tribune: THE :su,,ren court
of South Dakota has s%,l,!aimnd Gov
ernor Lee for removing Insurance
Commissiouer kippior holding ~ for
eign Insurance companies ans! The sit
uation in the populist camp OF South
Dakota may lie described as fairly
boiling. However. as it is purely a
quarrel over patronage between two
factions of Il party, very little credit
can attach to the governors action.
The office of CONN issioner was created
by the late legislature because the
populist party had failed to elect
the auditor whoh had hitherto controlled
the insurance business, and of course
nothing but tribulation could be ex-
pected to result from SO purely a mer-
cenary deal. 1t looks as though the
republican party in the state was hav-
ing more than its usual run of good
luck"

THE QUICK R
An 0utgrowth of improved American
Methods of Fire Fighting.

An Outgr0Wth Of Improved American
Methods Of Fire Fighting.
In ST. Nicholas there 10 an article on
1.-THE Quick Horse" BY F. s. Dellen-
baugh, devoted to the horses Of the mod
ern fire department.. Mr.. E%eilenbaugh
says: 1t is only within recent years that
quick horses have been developed and
appreciated and admired, and the poet
has not yet attempted to sing the praises
of this more prosaic but noble animal.
Yet, after all, to n who carefully ex-
amines the matter the quick horse APP
pears to have quite as good, if not Il bet
ter, claim upon our admiration and
sympathy and encouragement. The
swift horse wins the race, aud in these
days he may cause considerable money
to change hands, in which there is GER
tainly nothing that is ~commendable.
But the quick horse I write about saves
life, saves property and under modern
conditions of life is essential to our
safety and general we'll being. He is
the result Indirectly of poor building
an outgrowth of our skillful American
fire departments, which could not now
exist without him.
Not SO very many years ago when q
fire broke out everybody far and near
began to run and especially began to
yell, and the volunteer firemen of that
time, being in the service for the excite
ment of it, joined in the yell and start
ed out the old hand engine from its SOL
emn repose, while the foreman running
ahead shouted innumerable orders
hoarsely through his trumpet, to the
great delight of hundreds of small boys
painting to keep up i'll the glorious race.
The tire-that was altogether a SEQ.
ondary matter. and when they all final
ly got there they went to work with
more or less efficiency. There was q
great deal of fun i'll the business, but
fires were not extinguished. Our cities
i'll the early days were not built to pre-
vent fires, but seemed, if anything, ra-
ther built to encourage them.
In France we may we'll be amused as
we watch the pompier corps trundle its
bathtub on wheels to the scene of the
conflagration and deliberately fill its
apartments with water dipped up from
the gutter, whence it is thrown by a
little pump upon the flames, because we
know muck of the architecture there is
solid, and if the fire is not distinguished
it will soon burn itself out. But in our
counery Il mere spark may i'll a few sec
onds become u devouring furnace and
destroy house after house and block aft
er block. Many buildings arc finder
boxes, and cur dry climate adds to their
infiammabil:ty, while the ever present
careless or lazy workman by improper
construction gives the fire its first op.
portunity.

Tho Matter of whisker..

Jules Ferry's whiskers were often an
index to his state of feeling. I saw him
on the day he escaped from the COM
mune of Paris to Versailles. He related
his adventures at the Hotel des Reser-
voirs to friends who gathered round
him. The whiskers, which habitually
stood we'll out, like those (his enemies
said) of q garcon de cafe. were limp and
lay fat to the cheeks.
The most leonine whiskers I ever saw
were Skobelef's. They were Of inn
mense length when he drew them out,
as was his won't, but when let alone
seemed only half as long. I dare say
they had their lank days. but not SO far
as I know. The term "whiskerando"
(now we'll nigh obsolete) had more
meaning than those who used it thought.
