HE movement which has recently

THE movement which has recently
been started to give Admiral Dewey a
comfortable home as testimonial of
the appreciation by the American peo-
pie Of the services he has rendered his
country in the recent war is far more
sensible than any proposed gift of a
jewelled sword or other like present.
While we all hope his days may be
long upon this earth, we all realize
that age will soon force him to retire
from active service and he would cer-
tainly enjoy the comforts OF a home
more than the sight Of fancy blade
hung on rented wall.

Of Minneapolis, who boldly marched
away from Camp Ramsey year ago
at the head Of our pets, the Thir-
teenth, and $4,000 as a regimental
fund, has returned to his home in
good state of preservation. He says
he is glad that he is out of it. He
didn't kill enough Spaniards and Fill
pinos combined to make meal for a
Jersey mosquito. One thing in favor
of the old warrior-he wasn't but a few
rods ahead of the regiment when the
boys marched away in the palace cars,
but he gained on them over 1000 miles.
Who can say that the gallant Colonel
doesn't lead his regiment? He comes

kussing him.-Blue Earth Citu Post. .

MRS. GEORGE has discovered that
American people, while upholding the
verdict Of. the jury which acquitted
her Of the charge of murder, have not
much use for her personally. While
her victim was undoubtedly a heartless
libertine, she, as a wife and the
mother of a family, had no excuse for
becoming entangled in his web and
her attempts to appear before the pub
lie as martyr will not be counten-
anced. If she has even a passing in
telligence she will retire from the pub

James Bryce, the author of 1.-The
American Commonwealth. " has writ
ten for an American paper an explana-
tion why France should hate England.
The reasons may be summed up as fol-
lows: In territorial extension and the.
development of trade England has got
in ahead Of France regularly. She is:
not only q maritime power, but she.
doubles her power SYSTEMATICALLY. She
has staid in Egypt without leave and
proposes to stay in the rest Of Africa.
To go to war with England would be
'ruinous for France, simply because che
cannot compete with England on the
ocean, and war would cut off her best
customer. A consciousness of all this,
gives rise to a feeling of bitterness,
which is only modified by the depressing
influence of Russia and the annoying
conviction that trouble with England
would forever prevent her from regain
ing from Germany the provinces she has.
already lost.

Gov. ROOSEVELT'S characterization
of the, two extremes men who re-
gard property as sacred and untaxable
and those, who consider that it has no
rights at all-is very characteristic
and to the point, says the Pioneer Press.
If any type of man can harmonic
these interests it is the Roosevelt type,
which unhesitatingly declares the
truth about both of them.

AN EXPLANATION DUE.

When Gov. Lind is able to salts
factorily explain why he refused to ap-
prove of the bill to have testimony
taken before the railroad and ware
house commission admitted in court,
he will have removed one of tie prin-
cipal among the many barriers in his
path toward a second term. People
cannot understand why they must con-
tinue to try cases, such as come before
the commission, twice over; it not only
delays the adjustment of matters in
dispute but is. a costly procedure as
we'll. The legislature did not get a
chance to pass the bill over the gov
ernor's veto, for the governor did not
give them the opportunity he was
probably aware they would promptly
seize, so he killed the measure by with
holding his approval.-Morris Sun.

The city council met in special sess-

artesian we'll. Their bill WAS $3.50, but
the council allowed them only $3.50,
claiming tnAt the contractors did not
finish their work and left about 20 feet
OF sand in the bottom of the we'll.
Messrs. Bracy and Stout voted to allow
the full bill believing that the firm was
entitled to it under the motion. Ma
hanna & Johnston have employed L.
Hannett to bring suit for the recovery
of the full amount and base their claim
on the following motion which was
passed by the council April Z:
That council give to Mahanna &

for all labor performed up to date; and

TO TAKE OFF THE HATS.

University Students Establish a Move
ment for Ladies' to Remove Hats.
The removal of ladies hats in all pub
lie gatherings is becoming general and
the innovation was commenced here
Sunday, but not without some sacrifice
on the part of the promoters. The
movement was started by several of tho
young men at the university, who pro-
posed to the young ladies that they
would raise certain amount of mis-
sionary money for the Y. W. G. A. If
they would agree to remove their hats
or bonnets at all church services dur
ing the remainder of the term. There
were SO OF the young ladies who signed
the agreement and it went into effect
Sunday. 1t wouldn't be a bad idea to
extend the movement down town and
thus give every body an opportunity not
only to hear the preacher but to SEQ
him. Two or three ladies in church
could easily establish the custom of re-
moving the hat and the others no doubs
would readily follow.

NOW AT A STANDSTILL.

Artesian Well Contractors Give up the
Work of Further Drilling on the We'll.
Mahanna & johnson, who q week or
more ago stopped drilling on the city
artesian we'll, took down and loaded
their drilling apparatus on the cars
Monday and shipped it to Springfield,
where they have two contracts. Six
months ago the firm began work on
their contract and made good headway
until they reached depth of $50 feet.
Since then they have gone 20 feet far
ther but met with various obstacles,
the sand giving much trouble at the
last. 1t was conceded that the rock
encountered could be drilled through,
and after the sand was shut off by driv-
ing the pipe into the rock it was
thought there would be no further diff
fculty. In driving the pipe it became
jammed on the lower end and pre-
vented the passage of the larger tools.
The contractors worked at different
periods 1t various prices and being
bound by no contract decided to throw
up the job. So far the we'll has cost
the city about 81 300. 1t is presumed
that the casing can be cut at 54S feet and
secure the same flow OF the other two
wells near the reservoir.

WAS DECLARED INSANE.

Mrs. Johanna Reeves is Declared Fit
Subje ect for the Insane Asylum.
Mrs. Johanna Reeves, living on east
First street, is suffering with mild
form OF insanity and although not par
ticularly dangerous q complaint was
made to the commissioners of insanity
and the case was heard Friday by Judge
Abbey While there seems to be no
doubt that che is insane the case was
rested until the next day for further
developments. She was in care of her
sister, Mrs. Steinbrook. Mrs. Reeves
is widow lady and her insanity seems
to have religious trend. Saturday
afternoon the case was again taken up
by the commissioners and after listen
ing to further evidence it was decided
to send her to the asylum at Yankton,
where it is thought she will improve
under treatment. She was taken to
Yankton Thursday.
