IIURRAII!

FINS Coronat opus. The end has
crowned the work They say it Is a
long lane that has no turning, and the
Annexation lane has been a long and
a weary one. and we have reached the
turn and the next steamer has come
at last
Only 6, 1898, marks an epoch in the
history of the United States. The
hand of the Republic has gone forth
into the Pacific and says at is mine"
There is no hesitation in the sound.
The voice of the American people has
been raised and has been heard.
The minority in the Senate made
hard fight of it, but it was not a fair
fight, and it was not in a good cause.
The day will come when those TWEEN
ty-one Senators will regret that ever
they voted as they did.
Of the majority too much praise
cannot be given to Morgan and Davis
Other Senators have worked nobly in
our cause, but these two are men who
have been self devoted to Hawaii and
have guided the little bark into its
safe harbor.
In the first whirl of the news, it
seems almost too good to be true.
When one has waited and hoped, and
waited and hoped, it seemed as If in
vain; when forces were arrayed
against annexation which it seemed
impossible to overcome; suddenly the
whole course of events is changed and
the impossible becomes the possible,
and our fears are swept away and we
realize our dearest hopes.
The salute of hundred guns yes
terday was the honor which the Ha-
waiian Republic paid to the Stars and
Stripes, but the salute which greeted
annexation was fired long ago. 1t
was fired on a bright May morning,
under tropic sky, and when the bells
were ringing the people into church
1t was Dewey's guns laundering in
Manila harbor that announced the an.
nexation of Hawaii to a listening
world.
For Hawaii. she enters upon a new
life. She enters upon brthright OF
liberty and becomes part and parcel
of one of the greatest powers upon
earth. Her career will now march

Naniwa can threaten us with dire
pains and penalties any more. The
folds of Old Glory float over us, a
flag which. if glorious in the past is
II doubly glorious in the present, and
which will float triumphant to the re
hottest confines of future historical
time.
The mission of the United States is
great one. 1t is to give free in
situations, free education, freedom il
politics, freedom in religion, freedom
in trade to every spot where its flag
may be planted. With that mission
Hawaii may now takes its part and
share. Safety, peace and prosperity
are assured to us and every citizen or

FARMERS BEWARE.

During the past year the farmers
we're swindled out of thousands of
dollars by fake hail insurance com
panies, Several of these companies
are in the field again and by fair
promises and oily tongued agents are
trying to rope in the farmers. Hail
insurance is good thing but do not
let sharpers insure you in company
that you know nothing about and
has nothing to pay you with if you
have loss. There is one company
THE ALLIANCE HAIL AND
CYCLONE MUTUAL INSUR-
ANCE co. of Austin that has a
surplus of S55, ,999,28. 1t has been
doing business for ten years and has
always paid it's losses before due. Ii
you want hail Insurance, insure with
that company and you know that you
are protected, but if you insure with
some of the other concerns, you will
have to pay all that they can compel
you to and if you have loss, you
will get little or nothing.

IN CAMP, March 21, 1898.
| We are still in camp about IL miles from
Wrangle, how long we will stay here do
not know, but probably until the ice
breaks out of the river.
| The boys have their satisfy" I guess,
with dog teams. l did not wantsto invest
in dogs, but they knew we would get along
much faster. So 1 did as they wished
and bought four dogs. L have fooled with
them for about ten days and have good
| team, but it took lots of swearing and
pounding to make them work. Today 1
| drove them down to the point and back
| again, a distance of about three miles and
had a nice ride. We have decided to sell
the dogs and buy boat, but will have to
sell them at big discount. We sold four
| the other day for $50, which cost us about
| $50 laid down here. If we can sell the rest
at these figures will be satisfied.
| We have had lovely weather and have
been very comfortable in our new home.
1 wish we could go on now and get to Lake
| Tes1in on the snow but Mr.. St. Pierre
cannot stand the hard travelling. So 1 do
not think we will ever get off the Stekhem
| river and its tributaries.
| The bows change their minds so often
| that do not know or care what they do, I
am determined to be satisfied with any
thing, or, any place. If we do not leave
this river and have our own boat, it will be
| an easy matter to get home next fall. The
boys were out prospecting the other day,
but did not have any success. l staid at
camp, pounded dogs and cooked food for
them. Say, I am a Cracker jack" cook
ing corn meal, ta1low and salmon. We
boil them together and it makes good food
for the dogs.
Hunting here is very poor, at this time
of the year, but they tell US that ducks and
geese are very plentiful in the spring.
| took long tramp through the woods the
other day, but did not see even a rabbit.
Tomorrow Mr.. St. Pierre and will go to
Wrangle to see about buying'a boat and
will finish this after we get there. 1 am
tired out bending over my writing desk,
which is an empty box with spruce
boughs for seat.
At Wrangle March 23rd: We will leave
for camp in few minutes. We have just
bought boat. 1 staid in town last night

Rube Allyn, Entertainer.

The Y. P. S. G. E. of the Congregs-
tional church procured Mr.. Rube
Allyn. of Crookston, to give one of
his entertainments at the Congrega-
gational church Monday evening.
The audience which greeted him was
not large, but the entertainment
which he gave was of high order of
merit. Mr.. Allyn has good voice,
good bearing, and exhibits good
thought in the Interpretation of his
characters. Above all he invests all
his selections with his own peculiar
personality. But Mr. Allyn is un-
fortunate in the choice of certain of
his subjects. In order to secure the
contrast of the stronger passions, he
could proftably substitute for his two
selections on the attitude Of the mind
of the murderer, other selections
which while appealing to as strong
passion, would be more in the line Of
common experience. Mr.. Allyn went
from here to Glenwood Yesterday
morning.
Easter services at Methodist church

is THE DAY GROWING LONGER ?
SCIENTIFIC REASONS IN SUPPORT
OF THE THEORY THAT TT Is.

One of the most interesting subjects
discussed by Professor George Darwin
during his recent visit to this country
was that Of the possible and probable
increase in the length of the day.
When once the earth is in motion
about an axis, no matter how the mo
ton came about, il would continue for
ever, and at the same rate, thus max
ing the day always of the same length,
unless something is happening or will
happen to interfere with that motion.
Now, there are several causes in op-
GRAFTON which affect the period of the
earth's rotation, some of which tend to
make the period less and others to
make 1t greater Fortunately the In
fiuence of each OF the causes is very
smallThey are generally easy to under
stand, and a simple experiment will IL
lustrate one of them.
Tie a stone TO one end of a string,
and, holding the other in the hand,
wlhirl it around as nearly as may be
in the circumference of a circle. When
its speed is nearly uniform allow the
string to wind up on the finger. 1t will
be noticed that as the string shortens
the angular velocity increases. In the
same way, If the matter forming the
earth should in any way be drawn
nearer the axis of rotation, it would
turn faster and the day would be
shortened.
By actual loss OF heat shrinkage
of the earth is probably in progress,
and, although the process is exceeding
ly slow. it certainly tends to diminish
the period of rotation. On the other
hand, any addition Of matter from the
outside viii tend to increase that per-
Tod and make the day longer. I'm
doubtedly slight additions to the mass
Of the earth are constantly made by
the arrest Of meteoric bodies passing
! through the atmosphere. Their inhu-
ence is opposed to and tends to neu-
tralize that of any earth shrinkage
! that may be going on.
The most important interference
with the rotation Of the earth that we
| know Of is that of the tidal wave which
is due to the attraction Of the sun and
moon, but more largely of the latter.
1T is easy to see that this Is re-
sistance against which the earth turns
and its effect is to increase the length
OF the day
Astronomical observations extending
over about 1000 yards have failed to
show any sensible change in the day
but the influence Of the tides must be.

clares that the day may lengthen until
it is at least ffty-hve times as long as
it is at present, and that would be also

vANDALs AT WORK.

NANDAIlS AT WOhh.
Thieves and vandals are at work in
that beautiful "city of the dead" known
as Riverview Cemetery. The Wayfarer
is told that not only are flowers stolen
from the burial lots, but also from the
very graves themselves. Acts of van
dalism, of a character more or less ag-
gravated, have also been common for
several weeks, and it Is a deplOrable
fact that most Of this discreditable
work is done by women and children
who visit the cemetery. The Offenses
against the sacredness Of the enclosure
have become so marked and frequent
that the superintendent has been au-
thorized to have every offender arrest
ed and prosecuted, no matter whether
it be man, woman or child.
WHISKEY AWAY UP.
Allen Matthews. the colored porter at
the Hotel Jennings, was born a slave in
Petersburg, Va, and was there during
the entire war The Wayfarer recently
heard him say that he was in the city
during the siege, and saw hundreds OF
dead Union men and Confederates. He
visited the celebrated mine after it ex-
ploded. After the Union troops occu-

him but $3.50, being told to take the

troops every day, making his rounds on
horseback and receiving a substantial
commission for his work.
FORGOT HIS GOOD FORTUNE.
Employed in the p, w. & b. machine
shops there is a man whose home is al
Iron Hill, and who goes up and down
every day. For some time the men in
his department made but seven hours
a day. and it was his habit to 90 home
on one CT the Baltimore accommoda-
ton trains in the middle of the after
noon. One day last week an order wa.
promulgated instructing the machinists
and others employed in the shops tC
work nine hours instead of seven. The
Wayfarer is assured that the Iron Hill
man was cOgnizant Of the change, bu
it must have slipped his memory, for
when his seven hours were up he pu
on his hat and coat and walked out
Having some time TO wait he went up
town and made several purchases Of ar
ticles needed at home. Then he return
ed to the station, boarded his train AM
