culatiOn is in this state. Tie latest
slur upon our political institutions
comes through Jermane. who in speak
ing of the proposed change from the
system of appointing railroad commits
sioners. nov in vogue in Minnesota,
to the election system. the plan in
North Dakota, says: 1.-THE chief OBJ
lection to the election idea is the dan
ger that the railroad companies may
think it advisable to come into the
nominating conventions, as they do in
North Dakota, and corrupt the dele
gates and the whole party" The re-
publican party Of this state was
roasted and misrepresented by journal
writer's all during the campaign last
year. The Journal employed a popu-
list editorial writer Mt Grand Forks to
lie about the republicans during the
campaign, and when the legislature
met it sent a man to Bismarck with
instructions to lie about and misrepre-
sent the "old gang at every turn. The
Journal took it's senatorial cue from
the wheat and lumber thieves of Min
neapOlis. who were for Johnson, and
his mendacity as a news writer every
day. The assertion in the above
quoted paragraph that the railroad
would go into state conven-
tions and corrupt the delegates and
the whole party is an insult to the re-
of this state, and the writer
of the same knows it is untrue rs he
has frequently visited this state and
has upon numerous occasions demon
strlted his ignorance as we'll rs his
piQue and prejudices because things
political do not run the Journals
way in North Dakota. No better proof
of the Journals desire to misrepre-
sent the dominant element in politics
in this state is needed than the fact
that the Grand Forks Plaindealer and
Herald and Fargo Argus copied every
word of the Journals Bismarck CORE
Spondent's Misrepresentation.

The war between the gold and silver
wings Of the democracy is on, and the
object will be the control of the demo-
cratic organization in 1900, for the
nomination of a candidate for the pres
idency. The battle is reflected in the
disagreement between Bryan and Bel
mont with regard to the Jefferson ban
quet to be held in New York, and will
be a battle to the death until after the
democratic presidential nomination in
1900.

1t is interesting to note. in connec-
ton with the proposed establishment
Of a binding Irvine plant ut the state
p%enitentiary in North Dakota, that the
Minnesota plant is doing a rushing
busiess. The warden of that institu-
ton reports from $4,000 to $1,000 daily
receipts of small cash orders for Irvine
and the indications are that the entire
output Of the plant will be contracted
for before the first Of May. AS soon
as the governor returns it is likely that
steps will be taken to carry out the
provisions of the law for the estab-
lishment of a plant in this state, and
the sale of the $15O,000 certificates of
Indebtedness which will furnish the
funds for the establishment of the
plant.

being advanced, and these conditions
always prevail during good times.
Low prices and low wages and hard
times go together. The democratic
organs through the country are full of
reasons for these improved conditions.
They hold it is due to natural laws,
to economic causes, that it is a coinci-
decne, and to a whole host Of other,
things, when as q. matter Of fact 1t is
due to a wise business policy inaug-
urated and carried out by the repub-
lican administration, confidence in the
stability Of the money of the country,
and to q wise protective tariff. The
democrats are long on the coincidence
howl. Whenever prosperity follows
a republican victory and a democratic
defeat-as it always does-they claim
it is merely a coincidence. 1t is pecu.
liar that these condolences never fol-
low d democratic administration, and
unfortunate for the democrats. It
is amusing in the light Of present i'm
proved conditions to see the democrats
struggle for the control of the party
organization at the next presidential
nominating time. If, after the ex-
peience of the people Of the country
with the democratic party, there
should be a return to Democratic con-
troll at the next election, which is
barely to be listed with the barest Of
possibilities, then indeed, would hui
manity be perverse, and n return of un-
favorable conditions self-invited.
lei Correo Espanol,' the organ Of the
Spanish colony in the city Of Mexico,
said the other day: Civilization has
disappeared from Cuba with the dis
appearance of the Spanish flag. No
spectacle could be more repulsive. The
American soldiers have converted the
beautiful park at Havana into a camp.
There they eat, there they drink and
there they wallow freely, like hogs, in
the creek on a summer day. Oh, what
a sad page in the history Of the human
Ace is the United States writing in
Cuba and the Philippines! What a
step backward in the path of civiliza-
ton has been taken by North America
in letting loose its immoral and cynical
soldiery on those unhappy countries"

the main object Of the law. The law
provides for the damming of non-nav-

There is a slight error in the game
laws as published in the Popular Edi-
ton Of the laws-which arose through
comparison of the laws with the
original on file. Subdivision eight of
section Z should read as follows:
Shoots or kills any buffalo, moose,
elk. antelope, caribou or mountain
sheep at any time Or any deer between
the tenth day Of December and the
tenth day of October following"
AS the law reads, it is intended to
prevent altogether the killing of all
big game except deer. 1t affects only
the western part of the state.

The divorce industry in South Da-
kota is on the increase. The passage
of the law in this state increasing the
required residence to one year has had
the effect of bringing in Il number Of
colonists into the southern state and
this increase will continue as the time
comes when no more s%ojourners from
the east may take up their residence M
this state to secure short time divorces.
And in North Dakota there is q big
influx of Divorces. The first Of
April is the limit of the time when col
onists may take up residence, and east
ern applicants for the benefits of the
North Dakota law are coming in haste
to get into the pasture before the bars

fight, but unless the American army
meets with an unexpected reverse, the
climax Of the campaign should come
soon, and the flower of the %insurgent

surrender. Once Aguinaldo is cap
tured, the instruction would quickly
cease. And when the Filipino leader
is captured, bring him over to the
United States, show him what a nice

down with Geronimo, and allow these
two relics of bygone greatness to fight

'T-NDER THE DOME"

Under the Dome" Lincoln J. Carter's
naval drama which comes to the Craw-
ford Grand Thursday, has met with phe-'
nomenal success ever since its initial pro-
duction. A portion of the play deals with
recent International history. The story
is well told, and while the situations are
calculated TO cause the loyal American
heart TO leap with fervent patriotism, it
is absolutely free from the 'jingoistic''
spirit and deals with the nations inter-
ested in the Samoan affair of 1889 in a
spirit of perfect fairness Indeed. so skill
fully is the story told that during the re-
cent Canadian tour. the American flag
incident was enthusiastically cheered by
a body of English soldiers in the orchestra
seats. The principal events of the play
occurring during the fearful hurricane
which swept the harbor of Apia. March
18th 1899, gives great opportunity for the
scene painter and stage mechanic arts
It is said that the storm scenes, partic-
ularly the wreck Of the Trenton, are alb
solutely unrivalled by any similar scenes
of the stage. 1t will be remembered that
at this time open hostilities between the
German and United States governments
seemed imminent, owing to the position
assumed by the former in daposng the
king, Maletoa, and attempting to uphold
by force Of arms Tamasese, the usurper
Of the throne and creature of the Ger
mans. On this fateful day there were
gathered in the narrow and reef-bound
harbor the American warships Trenton,
Nipsic and Vandalia, the German Olga,
Eber and Adler and the English Calliope,
and a large fleet Of merchant and fishing
vessels. All of these were wrecked with
the exception Of the Calliope. which alone
escaped through the narrow opening in
the coral reef and out TO the open sea by
performing the most daring maneuver re-
corded in a naval history. Expecting
death themselves. the 400 men on board
the Trenton sent after the Engliehmen a
mighty cheer Of encouragement. Later.
when it seemed that the death Of all on
board the Trenton was but a matter of Il
few seconds. the band assembled on deck
and the anxious watches on shore were
thrilled with the strains Of the star
Spangled Banner" The last .of the storm
scenes Of the play shows the Trenton in the
last desperate struggle with wind and

hearts Of his little brothers and sisters
and mis- loving parents. He was a bright
child, waiting with baby impotence for
the warm spring and its dandellons and
daffodils, for its green pastures and romp-
inviting fields Of delight. Always happy,
always active, the cold hand of an In
scrutable One has stilled his little heart
and the spring with its flowers and green
meadows viii come without him. To his
parents sorrow and his little compan-
ions grief, there can be no solace now,
save the faith that little Sidney lives
again in the land of eternal spring and
eternal innocence.
