the republican party, including expansion,
and pointing out how completely discred-
tied Mr.. Bryan and his whole outfit were
before the people. Today he has rejected
all the policies OF the republican party and
accepted without reserve all the policies
of the democratic party, and is on the
stump advocating the election of Mr.. Bryan.
And why? Simply because the administra-
ton refused to take the war in South
Africa off the hands of the Beers. There
does not appear to be any connection be-
tween the Boer war and free silver, free
riot the income tax and public ownership
of public utilities but Mr.. Davis appears
to have found one, and so he accepts the
Chicago platform as restated at Kansas
City, and anti-imperialism added thereto
As Mr.. Bryan is sound on the question of
the Boer war Mr.. Davis accepts him as
sound on all other questions, and he goes
over to him horse, foot and dragons, voice
and vocabulary.
Mr.. Bryan probably prefers the Davis
to the Wellington style of flop, but he will
find use for both. Any port in a storm.
Any flop when fiOps are few and votes are
needed. And Mr.. Davis and Mr.. Well
ington control. and each will carry over
with him, about the same number of votes.

From the Boston Herald

When one considers the position of the
United States, face to face not only with
the Chinese problem, but with the various
great powers of Europe who are ASSOCIATED
with US in the attempted settlement of this
trouble, and realizes how easy it would be,
In the hands of an inexperienced and Impul-
sive Secretary of State, to make mistakes or
blunders that would have a serious effect
upon the destinies of this country for many
years to come, it is a matter for profound
congratulation that we have at the present
time in this exceedingly important office a
man in whose skill, foresight and thorough
appreciation of what is for the highest and
best interests of his country the American
people have the right to repose entire con-
fidence

Indignant Chicago.

Chicago is rather quick on the trigger
in the matter of demanding a recount of
her population because 1t has been reported
that the total will reach only 100000,
whereas the school census, just finished
shows a population of over 2,0OOO 900
Mayor Harrison has put on his war paint
and has started on the trail of the census
office. His war whoop echoes savagely.
He thinks the only decent way to treat
the metropolis of the west is to tally it's
inhabitants all over again, no matter what
the cost. But it is to be doubted whether
this burst of Indignation will avail If Chi
cago can get a recount why not Cincinnati
and such other cities as are or may be dis
satisfied with the enumeration? And If
cities can get the work done over again
why should not the whole country be emu
merated anew when later the politicians in
dict the chief of the census with partisan
manipulation of the figures? Such has
been the invariable experience in this de-
cennial work, and it is reasonable to ex-
pect that there will be no difference this
year. The chances are that the count is
correct. Washington did not demur when
it was found to have increased at a lower
rate than many anticipated 1t was under
stood that the best possible precautions
AAe'N' pNSA 'orN0Ai dSsi4lISl tiIcl, anu
machinery for enumeration was as reliable
as 1t was possible to make it. Absolute &C
curacy is out of the question save on the
basis of the German system, which utiliZes
all the agencies of a highly developed pa
ternal form of government which keeps
each individual under the closest super
vision from birth to death. Chicago does
not boast of such an elaborate method of
administration, and in her case it is an
open question between the ardor of the
school enumerator, who is fired by the zeal
of local pride to swell his lists, and the
business-like enterprise of the census man.

Serious CONFEDERATION

THE idea of depriving any American citi-

said the earnest man.
Well answered Senator Sorghum, ~
must say I'm not quite clear on that ques-
ton yet. l have studied it some, but can't
say whether reducing the number of voters
will simplify the work of gathering them
up at the polls, or whether it'll limit the
supply so as to cause competition for 1t,
and so increase the cost. I tell you, young
man, some Of these here problems of state
are altogether too deep to be settled off

purchase price back from white
settlers who would Immediately
become tax payers and active
factors in the building up and de
velopment of the great northwest.
It is currently reported that the
Indians would gladly accept the
above arrangement, as they are
thoroughly disgusted with their
present condition and are anxious
to make change. Especially is
this true of the young bucks, who,
more advanced than the older
Indians, realize that under the pre-
sent conditions there will be no
Improvement in their wretched
surroundings. The older buc) g
in some instances would doubtless
object to any move as it is against
their principles at any and all
times to move unless absolutely
necessary, not only from reser-
vation but at all. It is this shift
lessness and indifference on their
part to make any provision for the
winter months that is advanced by
those favoring their removal as a
reason for the necessity of the
change, and it is believed by many
that the change will be to the ad-
vantage of both Indians and white
settlers.
Meetings have been called in
many of the towns adjacent to the
reservation and concerted move
is now being made to push the
scheme to successful issue. The
only action that can be taken
must originate at Washington and
it is understood that the North
Dakota delegation to congress will
do all in their power to push the
deal through. The settlers sur
rounding the reservation and es-
pecially in Ramsey county are
thoroughly aroused to the neces-
sity of immediate action and are
confident that some action will be
taken by the authorities at Wash
'ington, as they feel that the con
ditions existing admit of no delay
in applying a remedy. The mat
ter will be watched with interest
by the entire state.

THE BRIDGE QUESTION.
The County Appropriates $500 to
Help the Project.


Engineer w. S. Russell com.
pleted his estimate of the cost OF
building a pontoon bridge across
the lake at Pelican Point, at $3.50
O'Clock yesterday. At 4 O'Clock
a committee of citizens of Devils
Lake waited upon the county
commissioners and asked for an
appropriation of $500, or less
than one-half the estimated cost of
of the structure, which amount
was granted unanimously by the
board.
Mr. Russell's estimate for the
structure and road grading is
$,2O7OO. Mr.. Russell's report is
as follows:
Pursuant to request have examined the pro-
Made soundings taking the depths OF the water
I find that sufficient dry, qnfro7en gravel
cold weather without difficulty, can be obtained
on the west shore at an average haul Of about
one.half mile; also find that sufficient stone for
rip-rapping the abutments can be obtained on
the south shore at about the same average haul.
IL draw span ls required, q pOntOOn will IN
doubtedly be satisfactory and will be very much
cheaper than any other form.
Upon inquiry was informed by Capt. Heer-
man that he has barge 16 feet wide and about
on the lake, and that he will sell same for $22j.
l have not seen the barge, but from the de-
scriptOn given believe that it would cost about
$500 to put the barge in shape for use for bridge
purposes.
If the pantoon is used / believe it best to put
in about 100 feet of open trestle for the passage
of water to relieve the barge in case high winds:
also that the height of the construction should
be at least feet above the present stage of
water.
Following the line of most shallow water the
course will not be straight, but curved slightly
to the east at point about midway OF the
crossing. The deepest water is near the south
would recommend the placing the pontoon and
treste.
The soliciting committee has
succeeded in raising by private
subscriptions from the citizens of
Devils Lake the sum of 81, $40.
It is believed this amount can be
increased to $1,000. With the
assistance promised from the local
elevators and the railroad, the
amount necessary is practically
assured and it is safe to say the
work of bridging Pelican Point
will commence soon and be pushed
