Others Have Mud.

The following extract from the Spokes-
man Review shows that even Spokane's
asphalt pavement is no better than our
gravel roadbed, only that it is Oh an even
grade and can be cleaned more readily.
The Riverside Avenue pavement in Spo
kane cost 100000, and yet they have
mud:
Yesterday the city street department
had large force of men and teams at
work on Riverside avenue, and by early
evening much of the mud which has GOV.
cred the atenue for days had been re.
moved. AS the side streets are yet bu,
pools of deep and sticky mud, the condi'
ton of the avenue tonight after traffic
has resumed today will be about as bad
as it was when the cleaners started work
The street department admits the inipos
sibility of keeping the avenue clean unit
the side streets are paved, but this doe.

! fame comment the condition of the streets

THE SAME OH POLICY.

Independent and home rule for the
Fillipinos and a government by Insur-
gents Aguinaldo and Agoncillo are
quite different propositions. The
United States did not go to war with
SPAN to elevate the insurgents above
the Spaniards, but to establish indie
pendence irrespective of factional diff
ferences. The insurgent leaders had
fully demonstrated their utter incapa.
bility to extricate themselves from
monarchial masters, and without the
protecting arm of this government
were doomed, they and all their de-
scendants, to perpetual subsection. II
left alone to their own resources the
insurgents would today be as helpless
a. they were before the war. The
cause Of political independence is not
the cause Of q particular set of men.
OF even Of a particular epoch, but Of
humanity for all time. It was. not to
Nberate q few Fillipinos that we sent
our own sons into battle, much less tc
uplift q few ambitious ag~itators into
authority. Neither was it out Of sym,
patty for our suffering neiRhbors in
Cuba. II no one but the actual resi-
dents of those islands were concerned
It would no. have been worththe Will.

war for them. But the tree of indie
pendence, like that of good and evil
must either grow or wither; and we
had reached the point where independ-
ence itself must either expand or con-
tract. The American republic is the
only power on Garth strong enough to
repell the tyrannical hand Of mon
archy. But the, independence Of gem
erations to come demand that it shall
enforce its precepts Of independence
not only against the monarchy Of the
old world, but against the anarchy Of
the new as well. Life is too short to
60 to war for the benefit of a few sell
fish fellows. The policy which we are
now pursuing! with regard to Cuba and
the Philippines is the same old policy
we pursued in '76 and 81. It was not
simply to free the negroes that we
fought the war Of the Rebellion. It
was to purify the atmosphere Of free
dom for our descendants, as the pat
riots of '76 had purified it for us. It is
not in the personal interests of Aguin-
aldo or Agoncillo that this nation has
gone to war, but it is to clear the at
mosphere of freedom for the future
for the good of our children as we'll as
their own.

incapable Of governing themselves,
and that the United States must main
tain its present control indefinitely, or
else annex the island. There will be
those who will dispute this, but there
are none who dispute the we'll estab-
lished fact that Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters is capable Of controlling the
common diseases of the stomach. It
is a remedy that is backed by fifty
years of success. It is an ideal medi-
cine for constipation; a strength
builder for those who are predisposed
to lung troubles, and for nervousness
it is Of wonderful benefit. AS an ap-
petizer it is incompatible. Those
whose stomachs are out Of order should
not fail to try a bottle.

Bro. Streeter, Of the Emmous County

ner:
It is wonderful what r%ecuperative
powers as q politician are inherent in
Senator LaMoure. A few years ago
he was being generally roasted, and
now pretty nearly everybody in the
state is saying q good word for him.
Perhaps it is because the old man is
getting better as he grows older, and
more carefully keeps the windows of
his soul open toward Jerusalem. But
it is more probable that it is because
people who know him and those who
hear of his many kind and charitable
acts cannot help liking him personally.
One thing is certain, he never lets an
opportunity slip to advance the inter-
ests of Pem5ina county. And they
say" that his daily life up there is full
of good deeds, and that, though his
face may be wooden, his heart is of
the real stuff. Talk about personal
magnetism; there isn't a public man in
North Dakota who has more of it than
your Uncle Jud. No wonder that he
hypnotized Major Ed'ards.

vouches for his staunch Republicanism

lican majority in North Dakota in
1893 is also another voucher for Hans.
And be it not forgotten. Mr.. Herald
that while you were endeayoring to
turn the state over to the Pops and
Democrats, MI. Hansbrough was using
his entire strength to carry the state
forthe Republicans which reflects great
credit on MI. Hansbrough's Republi

SMOKED OUT.

The Grand Forks Herald has repeat
eddy and persistently charged that
Senator Hansbrough voted and spoke
for free silver in the senate" The
Inter Ocean has challenged the Herald
to prove it BY quoting from the Con-
gressional Record, but it has failed to
do so. And now comes the Herald's
other self-The Fargo Argus-with an
editorial upon the subject quoting
several extracts from the senator's
speech, putting in numerous asterisks,
which indicate the omission Of import
ant parts Of it that the Argus for some
reason did not care to quote. In this
editorial the Argus utterly fails to
prove the Herald's assertions.
The speech was made at the extra
session of the senate which was called
BY Grover Cleveland for the purpose
OF repeating a piece Of Republican
legislation-the Sherman act. This
law was passed in 1890 by a Republi-
can congress and was signed by a Re.
publican president-Mr. Harrison.
Senator Hansbrough voted for it in
the house; he was consistent and spoke
and voted against its repeal in the
senate. In no part of his speech did
he advocate the Stree aud unlimited
coinage of silver" On the contrary
he spoke for international bimetallism
the equal 8 of both gold and sill.
9 by the nations Of the earth. In
this he was in line with all previous
Republican platforms, and the subse
'quent platform adopted at the Repub
lican convention in st. Louis in 1891
was in line with the senator's speech
for that platform pledged the party Il
promote the cause of internationa
bimetallism. These are the facts, ant
neither the Argus nor the Herald cal
truthfully deny them.
Had Senator Hansbrough followe,
Grover Cleveland in 1898 instead o
holding to Republican doctrine as lai'
down in Republican platforms, tn
Herald and the Argus might find som
comfort in their efforts to read hir
out of the party.
