Says the Forum: Someone declared
repeatedly in 1896 and since that the
republican policy was making the rich
the poor poorer. In 1894
-under the democratic times-there
were o,o45,S67 depositors in banks in
the United States. The noun de-
posted was $2,S74,5S9, 4OG-ouite a
neat sum. Last year-under a rennh-
llcan Notwithstanding number Of
depositors increased ,1O0,547-there
We're 7,G35,414. The total amount of
deposits was S4,GOs, O0G, OO5-an in
crease of 81, 773333, 5jOG, 500. The average
deposit per person in 1894 was $500
IN 1879 1T was $GOz. That tells the
story OF the nations prosperity. Let
us look at North Dakota. 1t is learned
mat there we're G,914 depositors in
1884. There were 1928 more in 1899
or a total of 12,152-nearly double
the number of the previous period. The
amount of deposits in 1894 was So275;-
195-and in 1s99-$5, O5O, 4 or an in
crease OF $2,774 ,54S-that is the amount
deposited has more than doubled. Av-
erage deposit for 1894 was $$33229-for
leoo-$415 an increase of.$SG per per-
o n The foregoing-while it demon
states that republican prosperity makes
the rich richer-it indicates that it
makes millionaires more of people en-
1oying a bank account-it makes the
poor able to become rich-and drives
poverty away from the doors'of mil
the above speaks for itself.

1t seems the general opinion through
the state that with an active and ag-
gressive campaign-such as will be
made with Frank White al the head
of the ticket-the last hope Of the fu-
sionists is gone glimmering. If their
nominee for governor had been al
lowed to take the field unmolested and
make a personal canvass of the state
Governor Fancher unable because of
his health to get about among the peo-
ple7-the fusionists no doubt hoped by
roorbacks and canards to poll a big
vote for Wipperman. The fusion
nominee will make little Roadway
against Major White. White is a
fighter and he has a record as soldier
and citizen that will make MIN votes
wherever he goes.

popular approval. The Dickinson

MANNER OF OBTAINING CITIZENS
PAPERS,.

\ IIllo
Intention or first papers may be OBJ
tanned in the office of any clerk of
court without witnesses or other iden-
LITIGATION and may be taken out imme-
dlately upon a persons arrival in the
United States, provided the applicant
is of age, that is over II years old.
The full citizens or second papers
can only be taken out in open court
during the regular sessions of the dis
trict court or when special sessions are
held by the district judge for the pur-
pose of issuing citizen papers. The
applicant after having been examined
by the district judge as to his qualif-
cations takes an oath before the clerk
of court, that he renounces all allie
glance and fidelity to the reigning
prince or king of the country, whereof
ne was formerly a citizen, that he is
not a member of the nobility of such
country, and that he will support the
constitution of the United States; that
he has lived continuously in the United
States for five years last past and in
the state where the paper is applied
for the last one year. Unlike the first
paper which may be taken out any
where the second paper can only be
had in the state, of which the appli-
cant is a bona fide resident for at least
n year. The facts as to the appli-
cant's residence in the United States
five years and in the state one year
must also be sworn to by two
witnesses, who in addition must swear
chat the applicant is of good moral
character and in their opinion will be-
come a good citizen. A copy of appli-
cant's first paper must be shown to the
court unless the same was taken out
IN the county where the second paper
is applied for, when this is unneces-
sary as the original may be easily re-
ferred to. At least two years must
elapse between the date of the first
fNFSA NAu viz opp1ACdLlO1 lOI LIE Sec
ond, no matter how long the applicant
has lived in this country. There is
one exception from this rule, however.
in the case Of persons who come to the
United States under IS years of age.
Such persons may, after having re-
sided here at least five years and on be-
coming of age, take out both papers at
the same time on proving such fact by
two witnesses in addition to the re-
quirements mentioned above.
In the state of North Dakota the
second paper may be taken any time
before election and even on election
day and the applicant can go direct to
the polls and vote, but in Minnesota
and perhaps other states the voter
must be a full citizen at least 90 days
preceding the election.

not the paramount issue-that the
matter of human rights ov%ershadowcd

IlOL Lue paramount lSSuc-LudL Lu2
matter of human rights overshadowed
it.
Now why has Mr.. Bryan dropped
the money question into a secondary
place in this campaign? For the simple
reaso that every prediction and pro-
phesy he made four years ago has been
proven absolutely false and worthless.
He has no ground to stand upon. He
prophesied misery, want and poverty
with the gold standard. We have had
abundance, prosperity and increased
business.
This is the reason Mr.. Bryan has
dropped the money question. Not be-
cause of the paramount issue of hui
man rights-not because his heart
throbs more for the Filipino and for
Aguinaldo than for the silver dollar.
but for the one reason that his flowery
~perorations of four years ago with re-
gard to the money question have been
knocked into a cooked hat.
Mr.. Bryan's address, as it is re-
ported, consisted of the following:
A diatribe against England and Eng
lish methods, the bugaboo which was
worked ,threadbare in the campaign
four years ago.
A roast of Mark Hanna and a resur-
rection of the Wall street scarecrow.
A swipe at the ice trust, controlled
by Mr.. Bryan's apostles, Croker and
Van Wyck.
The claim that the Philippine islands
could be protected by the Monroe doc
trine with a government by Aguinaldo
and his confederates.
An offset for the democratic disfran-
chisement of negroes in the south by
an alleged injustice done the natives
of the island of Sulu.
And finally the militarism scarecrow
the vast army Of 100000 men that is
to drill and remain in idleness and be-
come a threat to the safety of the 75,-
O0O,ON people in this land of ours
which would be a force of six soldiers
to Burleigh county and the same pro-
portion through the country.
There was nothing about the tariff
issue-that which was paramount with
Mr.. Bryan when he was in congress-.
Hn HOG hoop op~,r1o%o1 ,:1..ool 80. H.
tariff and money questions. He was
a false prophet on both of them. He
will prove a false prophet on his
trumped-up imperialism and militar-
ism issues. He is a smooth, alert.
quick-wittcd and pleasing demagogue,
who is attempting to ride into the
presidency on a platform of discomfort,
sophistry, demagogy and prejudice.

human article being here.

The strange object which Mr.. Busby
was called upon to bond through John
BULBS Yukon strip is nothing more nor
less than heather Chinese.
The celestial, Mr.. Chin Sing by name,
is not going to the land of nuggets to
await an opportunity for something to do.
He arrived on the last Dirigo and is being
taken in by Col. E. D. Wiggan, United
States land commissioner at Rampant, on
the lower Yukon, for a cook. Col. Wig
gin is not introducing Chinese labor into
the north because he is particularly fond of
the celestial OF his kind, but because the
the destinations are too great for him to
retain other servants in his pioneer home.
Several times has the colonel taken girls
to cook at Rampant, but the demand in the
matrimonial market was SO great there
that time and again he saw his servants
go off to cook for life for some hardy
miner, and he gave up in despair and hired
Chinese. This is the way the colonel
explained matters to Mr.. Busby.
In bonding the yellow lad through, Mr..
Wiggin had him produce a photograph of
himself and his certificate showing his
right to be in the United States Mr.
Busby took the number of the celestia's
certificate, and few other facts concern
ing him, and the colonel and his charge
went gIeefully on their wav.

having robbed A. P. Randall in the Dew-
ev hotel night before la; OF $3.50.
Randall had been out late, and came in
and went to his room about o'clock in
the morning. Roberts and lsaacs came in
shortly after and went to their room.
Randall, it is said, h been around town
and had taken several drinks. and the be-
lief is that the other men had watched and
followed him for some time with the in
tenton of robbing the man.
The money that is missing Randall car
ried in belt. Just what he did with the
belt when he went to the bed is not
known, but when he got up the belt was
lying in the room empty.
1t is supposed by the authorities Rob
erts and lsaacs found the door to Randall's
room unlocked or that they opened it with
a key of their own.
At any event, Marshal Tanner was ap.
prised of the theft early, and at 6 o'clock

Further news in regard to the foregoing
was brought yesterday by passengers on
one of the British steamers that called at
Ketchlkan customs house on the wav
north.
1t appears that Robinson had lately come
down the Stickine river and gone to Ketch-
kan. 1t is stated the marshal heard Rob
inson was or had been beating some
squaws near Ketchikan, and went out to
arrest him for that cause. and tina. the
trouble resulting in Robinson's death then
began.
J. ). Mullan, member of the party of
Northwest police, who arrived yesterday on
the Danube enroute to Tagish, and who
is at the Occidental, tells the story of the
shooting as follows:
1.-The Danube was Mn ketchikan several
hours Sunday, and we learned considerable
regarding the shooting. 1t appears that
last Saturday being election day in Ket-
chikan, MANY Of the men about town par
took freely of the flowing bowl. Robinson
was of the number. and he went out to ex-
ert his overweight hilarity on some
squaWs near town. He beat and other
wise abused the squaws, and Marshal
t1aseY went out to put a stop to his action.
when Hasey arrived, Robinson went
to the beach where he had a boat. The
marshal followed, and on the way fired
three shots in the air to brighten Robinson.
When Hasey reached the boat Robinson
was there and battle resulted. Robinson
beat the marshal with an oar, breaking
one arm twice and also breaking rib and
badly bruising the. officer. 1t is said Rob
inson also got the marshal down and nearly
drowned him by thrustng his head under
water. 1t is also understood that Robins
son took the marshal's revolver from him.

POISON KILLS DOGS.
Two Days Death Roll of Skagway
CANNES Numbers Eight.

For two DAYS there has been heavy
fatality among Skagwav dogs, the result
of administering poison, probably by some
one who has been ANNOYED by them.
Dogs commenced diving Sunday and up
to last night eight deaths had been report
ed. The poison used is said to be strvch-
nine.
Ed. Quinn and Mr., Frace each lost two
valuable dogs.
Feeling has been considerably wrought
up over the matter, and Mrs. Moore, living
on Eighth avenue, near Main street, has
been arrested for administering poison to
animals. Dogs had been troubling her
chickens, and it is alleged that she put
strychnine out for them. Her hearing
will come up today at two o'clock.

The marshal called on two bvstanders
to help him or they volunteered to do so.
and saved him from the vengeance of Rob

Saturday.
The next day Robinson secured a rifle
and ammunition and started out in search
of the marshal and the two men who had
helped him. The marshal had heard of
the intended call of Robinson, and sat on
the porch in front of his office awaiting
his visitor. Robinson came down the
street rifle in hand looking for his men.
tie no sooner stepped from behind the
building than the MARSHAL fired.
The shot struck Robinson in the breast.
he staggered across the street and fell.
THE town was much excited. A cor
oner's Jury was mpanaled, and suppose
the inquest was held Monday.
The marshal, it seems. was not liked
at Ketchikan before this tronble, tut now
he is hero. He certainly proved himself
of admirable grit.
Pat Gallagher is acting marshal in the
place of Hasey.
Robinson was perhaps IS years old and
Hasey 80.
Robinson was British Columbia fish
erman' and was recenl " run out of some
of the fishing grounds"
Hasey is believed to be an Idaho man.
Deputy Marshal Tanner, of Skagway,
saws he believes Hasey was at one time at
