II anyone tells you there is a deal on
for the republicans to support the fu.
sion nominees for clerk and sheriff,
and the f~usionists in return to support
the republican candidates for treasurer
and superintendent, just let it go in
ear and out of the other. We have
heard that such a deal was fixed up
between some epublicans-no,w we can't
call them republicans who would fix
up such n zeal, we mean some political
gillinippers-and two populists, but
that is rs far AS the deal goes. This is
a republican year and the republicans
need do no trading; all that is neces.
sary is to support the ticket and it will
be elected in its entirety. We are will.
ing to admit, however, that such a
deal would be very adva .tageous to
the tu~sionists and would in all proba-
bility save to them two of the princi.

II one of the political parties should
happen to do such a thing as nominate
a Catholic priest for the Offices of
county Judge or county superintendent
Of schools, how bad do you think the
people would turn him down on the
pretense that they didn't want religion
mixed with justice or the schools?
Still, in this glorious United States one
church is just AS good as another and
a preacher is no better than p Catholic
priest when it comes to such matters.
The Red Cloud chief., 1899-10-13

Speaking of trusts what's the matter
with the trust that the two preacher
candidates are trying to form. Oae
wants to be county judge during the
week aud preach on Sunday and the
other wants to be county superinten-
tendent and preach on Sunday. This
comes the nearest to being n monopoly
for the purpose Of obtairing a double
salary that we know of. We believe
the voters will keep them on the old
salary.

Consistency.

We lind n party in politics which is
ever ready to lind fault with The other
parties about not being consistent; and
also To cry against every candidate
placed in the field by the opposing par-
ties. Such is the populist party of
Kansas aud Nebraska, above all politi.
cal parties IN any state in the union, or
we might say, in the known world.
They are always prepared To give add
vice AS 10 how the country should be-
governed, what wars we should engage
in, when to tight, and then what terri.
tory TO accept. They are never pre-
pared To tight for the country except
with their mouths. Ii "a place or rank
be given them in the volunteers they
accept il until they have to leave the
United States, then 1t is all wrong to
hight aud they resign Immediately aud
withdraw from active service, but so
long as they can draw their salaries
from Uncle Sam and lie around camp,
the war is righteous, jusiifiable aud
glorious. Such W. find Ia be the case
in the affairs Of the United States to.
day. Still more ma kcd is the actions
OF this same party when it comes down
to local affairs.
On the republican ticket in Webster

A NEW DRY DOCK,
Superior to Get 1t and 1t VIII Cost
$3.50, O00--.Work to Com.
nlence at Once.

All doubts regarding tia location of
the new dry dock of the American
Steel Barge company have been dis
PEELED, and superior is to get the plum.
This means the outlay of hundreds of
thousands of dollars in construction
work and many millions in salaries and
other expenses in years to come.
Tie new dock is to be GGG feet long
10 feet in width and II feet IN depta on
the inter sill, and vii; be the largest on
the great lakes, and will accommodate
two Of the company'5 boats ar the same
time.
The dock is estimated TO cost, when
completed, a quarter of a million dol
lars, is to be completed by the lst of
Juue, and will employ 200 men
Besides building this monster dock,
which means much to Superior, inn
prOvements are to be made to the old
dock which will entail considerable ex-
pendlture. At present 1t takes three
hours to pump out the 5000, 900 gallons
It holds, but the pumping capacity OF
the machinery is to be increased 50 as
to pump out the water in two hours
The company has great amount of
work on hand and in prospect, and
Capt. McDougall estimates that the out
lay within the next few weeks will be
three quarters of Il million dollars
The big mold loft and joiner's shop,
which has been in course of construc-
ton for some time, is another improve
ment was rendered necessary by the
increasing business of the company. 1t

A Delightful Reception,

The members of the Woman's Press
/ Club of Superior and Duluth, an organ
ization but recently formed, and not
yet perfected, together with a number
of women who are interested IN literary
pursuits but who have not yet identi
fed themselves with the club, enjoyed
the charming hospitality of Miss Sta
than. a sister of Mrs. Page Morris, at
the beautiful home OF the congressman,
/ Thursday afternoon. Miss Statham is
been identified with the work in Du-
luth from the stalt, having belonged to
some of the most prominent clubs OF
literary women in the East. The has
perhaps more thorough understand
ing of the art of organizing and system
atiZing the work than any woman at
the head of the lakes, and she is par
I ticularly ambitious to have the Press
club succeed. Certainly il the interest
manifested at this meeting is maintained
success, it would seem, is already as
sured. The business of the club was
DISPOSED of in short order, after which
Miss. Statham gave q short talk on her
club experiences while in the city Of
/ Washington, and also read q charming
and encouraging letter from a friend in
that city. Miss French gave a sketch
/ founded upon a visit to a newspaper ba-
Zaar which happened to be on while
/ she was In London a year or two ago,
/ and which was given for the benefit of
/ some hospital. The paper was inter
/ estlng and amusing, sparkling with wit
! ticsms both clever and original. con-
| vincIng all that Miss French possessed
Il combination OF rare capabilities which
are bound to be recognized and re-
/ warded in the world Of letters. About
/ 6 o'clock. after a refreshing cup OF tea,
/ served by Miss Page Morris, a niece of
! the hostess, the company broke up.
/ The next meeting will be held at The
! Euclid hotel in about month, and il is
! hoped that Superior will be able to have
! several representatives present.

Home Labor,

4 Joint committee composed of five
members each of the Council, Trades
and Labor Assembly and Commercial
club, met at the City Hall on Wednes-
day evening to discuss the home labor
question and devise WAYS and means to
its citizens in preference TO outsiders.
The committee WAS composed of Mayor
Dietrich and Aids. Newburg, Mclean,
Flagstad, Morriset and Lund, from the
land, Dow and Winkler, from the AS
sembly, and y. L. Shattuck, r. G. Ogil-
vie, L. +. McCausland, +. \. Wood
ward and Perry j. Ekstrand, from the
Commercial club. Alderman Newburg
was chosen chairman of the committee
and Mr.. Ekstrand secretary. The chair
man stated the object of the meeting.
1t was represented that there were in
dustries IL the city which not only gave
preference to outside men, but in some
instances went outside of the city to get
men. II was the belief OF the commit
tee that if the managers of the indus
tiles referred to were seen the matter
could be remedied, and committee
was appointed consisting Of the chair
man, the mayor, L. II. Freelanl and L.
A. Woodward to visit the different in
dustries and report to a meeting to be
held tins, Saturday, evening at the City
hail. The mayor thought 1t would be a
good plan to have an ordinance passed
providing for the appointment of q
Labor commission, composed OF MEM
bers of the council. Trades and Labor
assembly and Commercial club, and
some citizens belonging to none Of the
bodies. 1t would give the laborer a
place to file complaints and secure aid
to right any grievances. The matter
will be discussed on Saturday.
