 So widespread is the belief in the old gentleElan's care for the taxpayers in terests that the opposition caricaturists represent him as bargaining for twenty one-cent glasses of lemonade with which to enable his friends to drink to the success of his premiership and long life to his administration. He has been in public life for more than half a cen tury, having entered parliament in 1S49 and the senate in 1865.
 
 The communication of Count Tol stoi, the celebrated author is wrongly described as an instance of Muscovita intolerance, of bigotry and of persecu- tion. The count belonged to the orth- odox state church of Russia. Now, in his recent novel, entitled The Resur- rection," he expressly denied some of the principal doctrines of that church. He denies the one God in three persons, insists that the second person of the trinity was an ordinary human being, derides the holy sacrament, and de- clares that the church is a mere human arrangement besides distorting and finding fault with the Gospels. We saw a few months ago how the eminent English writer and scientist, Dr. M'- yart. was excommunicated by Cardinal Vaughan, in England, for denying cer- tain doctrines of the Roman Catholic church in his writings, while here in the United States the Rev. Dr. Briggs was expelled from the Presbyterian ministry for denying certain teachings of the Presbyterian church. Count Tolstoi has merely been subjected to the same treatment as Dr. Briggs and as Dr. Mivart; that is to say, he has been deprived of the membership of a church to which he has until now pro fessed to belong, but the teachings of which he derides and denies. The eH- communication entails no civil dlsau- vantages, and the extent of his punish nent is that he is debarred from the sacraments. and that if he dies without reconciling himself to the church the latter will decline it's ministrations at his death bed or it's religious cereili"- nies at his funeral.
 
 So much has been written about GIT Robert Hart that any biographical rec ord of this extraordinary man Woulu be superfluous. As one, however, who has been entertained by him at Peklh in the most hOspitable and charming fashion, I would merely like to call at tention to the fact that his death at the hands of the Chinese, along with the other i'll fated Europeans and Amerl- cans, would furnish striking proof cf the truth of the assertion that it is ap- solutely impossible to win either the gratitude or the affection of the Cnl- nese, or indeed of any Asiatic, cir cumstance which the people Tn thls country would do well to bear in nina.
 Sir Robert has devoted his entire existence to the service of the Chinese. His services have been of the most loyal. honorable. and single minded de- scription, and with the true art of an Irishman he contrived to reconcile his duties to the Chinese government with his obligations as subject of Queen Victoria. The extent to which the Chinese trusted him is shown by the fact that he had the entire customs

The democratic state convention
at Grand Forks last week promptly
voted down a resolution to re-
submit the prohibition question to
the people Of North Dakota. This
shows the strength of the pro-
hibition sentiment in this state.
Now let the law BIZ vigor ously
enforced" We clipped the above
from state exchange, the name
we'll, it does not natter and
reproduce it simply to illustrate
the accuracy with which facts are
recorded by the numerous little
sheets that infest North Dakota
for the purpose of spreading the
republican faith and incidentally
manipulating the public teat.
This item would have been reason
ably accurate had it stated that at
the democratic convention in the
city Of Grand Forks, there was no
resolution Of resubmission present
ed and that the same was not voted
down. He undoubtedly meant to
have said that at the republican
convention held in the city of
Grand Forks July IL, a resubmis-
sion resolution was prepared by
the delegates from the slope, but
for political reasons it was not
presented, but that resolution
endorsing the present prohibition
law would have heed promptly
voted down had it been presented
to the convention when the dele
gates were all there, as it was, it
was carried by small majority.
This shows how popular the
prohibition law is'in the republican
party. It is strange how facts
will get mixed and muddled in the
minds Of the partisans for revenue
only.-Grand Forks Plaindealer.

CHE trusts are now absorbing
an increasing share of public at
tention because of their rapid
growth the past two years. We
had sugar trust and an oil trust
some years ago. We now have a
biscuit trust and match and a
meat trust; in fact a trust on
almost everything that is used.
The milk trust reaches the infant
as he enters the world, the ice
trust cools him in summer, the
coal trust keeps him warm in
winter, while the coffin trust waits
to receive him when life's ftful
dream is over. The people are
beginning to see what the principle
Of monopoly really means; and yet
the principle of monopoly, SO
plainly illustrated BY the in
dustrisl trusts, does not differ at
III from the principle of monopoly
which underlies both the gold
standard and the paper money

GERMANS AGAINST M'KINLEY,

Mr.. Otto Doederiein, chief of
the German press bureau, at
Democratic headquarters, fur
nishes the following interesting
statement concerning the German
American vote. It is @ sufficient
answer to the absurd pretense that
this important element Of the vot-
ing population is devoted to Nc
Kinleyism and indifferent to the
imperialistic course of the Nc
Kinley administration: 81 have
on file in my Office about $500
letters from prominent Germans
in Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michi-
gan, and the Dakotas, which
reflect the sentiment Of the Ger
man voters in these states. Gin
1896, according to these commu-
nications, not one-ffth Of the Ger
man voters supported Bryan for
the reason that the position taken
by the democrat party on the
money question was not approved
by them and that Hanna succeeded
by his campaign Of misrepresenta-
ton, Islander and b]ackmail, to
prejudice even those against
Bryan, who had four years fought
the high protective tariff as a
measure benefting the few at the
expense of the many. II find it
is the belief among the German
voters that the election of Nc
kinley was grave and serious
mistake. A dem ocratic admins
tration never could have been as
disastrous to the very life of the
republic as has been the regime of
Mckinley. "The Germans are
not inclined to discuss any other
question, while the administration
is controlled by a number of men
representing not the people but
trusts. "The German voters will
not be satisfied until the consti.
tuition, the Declaration of indie
pendence and the flag which stands
for both. are restored to the
authority ard dignity which they
have enjoyed since July 4, l776.

upon which that government was
founded that it has denied the
truth of the Declaration of In.
dependence, openly and confessed
ly violated the Constitution,
definitely and distinctly abandon
ed the Monroe doctrine. It has
thrown American tradition to the
winds and has in effect declared
for empire as against the republic.
1t is for the American people in
November to choose between the
conservatism of the democratic
party, true to the principles of the
American theory of government,
and the new radicalism of the re-
publican party, false to American
ism and committed to imperialism
and trustism. Democracy means
the safety, the conservation, of the
republic. Republicanism means

The general land commissioner
at Washington has issued a circu-
lar to registers and receivers of
local land Offices in which he calls
attention to an act of the last
congress which makes it possible
for homestesders to make second
homestead entries. Particular at
tention is called to the fact that a
homesteader who committed his
his entry, that is to say, a home
steader who resided on his Sec
ton for fourteen months and then
paid the government $l.25 an acre
for the land, is also allowed to
make a second entry in lieu of
remaining on the land five years.
If this section should also be COM
muted he cannot make another
entry. The act under which the
present law is operative also pro-
vides that any person who has
made homestead entry, but from
any cause has lost or forfeited the
same, shall be entitled to the
benefit of the homestead laws as
though such former entry had not
been made. Therefore, says the
commissioner, you will not here
after reject a homestead appli-
cation on the ground that the
applicant cannot take prescribed
oath that he has not previously
made such All entity, or because he
has perfected title to land entered
under the homestead law, that he
will be required to show by
affidavit designating the entry
formerly made by description Of
the land, number and date OF
entry, or other sufficient date, to
enable the same to be modified on
the records of this office.

HELD UP TO RIDICULE.

We didn't notice any mention about a
prohibition plank in the Democratic
platform. 1t is also understood that
when the matter came up in the COM
mittee Wipperman, the Democratic
candidate for governor, said that if a
prohibition plank was inserted he would
not stay on the ticket. Such is the al
titude of the Democratic party on the
prohibition question, and it can't fool the
people by leeping silent about it, 1t
would have looked little more manly if
they had at least declared themselves
Cavalier County Republican.
After reading the above the
second time we have concluded
that 1t is net satire but the froth
Of republican rabbis. A squirt
like the above makes one smile at
the intense stupidity Of the person
who thinks he can mislead the
general public by such stuff.
What did the learned doctor think
the democrat party would do?
Did he want it to place in it's state
platform a resubmission plank?
And is he disappointed because it
did not? This Cavalier county
man was no doubt in favor Of the
resubmission plank? which the re-
publican convention had ready to
place in its platform, and which
would have been placed there haG
it not been afraid of driving the
remainder of the Red River Valley
votes to the democratic party.
cit would have looked little more
says this oracle, This
sounds good, coming from sheet
which swallows the republican
ticket, gang and all without a
grlmace. Can the republican
party "fool'' the people by passing
q prohibition resolution, when the
entire state knows that the men in
power will do all they can to bring
about resubmission? Can they
fool the people when the very
chairman who presided at the con-
vention has made record against
the prohibition laws, which cost
him hishonor 90 an attorney? This !
