FOR COLD CASH.

For the sum of 100000 Phila-
delphia bought the next repub-
lican national convention from the
national committee, to the intense
disgust Of Chicago, which was not
prepared to bid any suck figure.
The sale was made irrespective of
any other consideration than cold
cash, and the 100000 SO acquired
is to be used under Senator Han
mas direction to carry on ga pre-
llminary campaign of education"
Chicago appears to be the first
pupil to suffer from this educa-
tional campaign, and the lesson is
not relished by the delegation
which endeavored to secure the
convention for the Windy City.
The newspapers of Chicago ex-
press their disgust in unmistaka-
BILE terms, among the expressions
credited to them being the follow
ing:
"The Philadel phia argument in the
shape OF 9 certified check for 100000
went far to convince the committee"
Chairman Hanna was tired Of pass
ing tho hat for funds for preliminary

The Wahpeton Hail Co., Goes s.Bump"
as the Democrat Predicted.
As the DEMOCRAT predicted some few
weeks ago, the state commissioner of
insurance has applied for the appoint
ment of a receiver for the, Red River
Valley Mutual Hail insurance Co. The
application was made in district court
before Judge Lauder at Wahpeton,
where the company has Its head office,
the court granted the petition. 1t was
represented by Commissioner Harrison
that the company has unpaid LOSSES
amounting to $4,000, with assets only
in the sum of $4,000. There was no
objection made Ivy the company to the
appointment OF Il receiver, as the former
officers Of the organization had resigned
at Il meeting held some time ago and the
new ones elected were too willing to be
released from the responsibility with
which they found themselves surrounded.
Failing to find any way in which they
could pull the company out Of the hole.
1t Is now claimed that there are other
mutual insurance companies in the state
that will be treated in the same manner
unless the showing can be made that all
losses are promptly paid. Commissioner
Harrison says be has no other alterna.
tive in the matter.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1900-01-04

IHE postmaster general sheds
several barrels of hriny tears
because there ia a deficit in the
postal department. of six millions
for the past year, which he says
is chargable to the admission of
books as second class matter. He
knows better. He knows that
every one of his predecessors have
shown that the deficit is caused
by the payment to the rail
roads of an exhorbitant rate for
carrying the mails. They have SO
stated. If the mails will admit
merchandise at eight cents a
pound instead of sixteen now
charged, it will increase the
revenue to cover expenses even
with an extortionate rate-but it
would hurt the express companies
dividends and help the people
and it will not be done.

The year 1900 will not he

The year 1900 will not he A
leap year, for although it is divisi-
BILE by four, it is not Invisible BY
400. Ina iergtt1 Of the year rs
365 days. S hours, AZ minutes and
46 seconds. But for these odd
hours nn1 m;:.utas day is sd,,e'
every four years; but it will be
seen that tue addition of "a hours
once in four years is little too
much-so further correction is
made by dropping out the extra
day in three out Of every 400 years,
and another once in 1000 years.
So the year 1000 will not be a
leap year, although it will he

News comes from st. Paul that
in February there will be all in
crease of 10 per cent in the capital
stock of the Great Northern rail-
way, and that much of the new
stock will he set apart for the
employees of the road. The news
comes from no less an authority
than Preside at j. j. Hill himself,
and is considered one of the
biggest moves ever made in the
affairs of the company. The de-
tails of the plan have not been
made public as yet, but in general
it may be said that the stock will
be sold at par to those employees
who wish to purchase it; nc
employee who receives more than
$1,000 a year will be allowed to
buy stock, and no one employee
can buy more than $4,000 worth.
AS the stock of the Great North
ern railway is now quoted at It's it
will be seen that those employees
who purchase at par will be get
ting almost two dollars for one,
and the stock will earn AS good
dividends as the same amount of
money would draw in savings
bank.
