A discussion Of the probable
efforts to compel an observance
of treaty rights in China calls
attention to the fact that near.
ly all of the great nations are
"hard up," and have not avail,
able resources to stand the ex-
pense of campaigns. The South
African war has drained the
English treasury; Russia has
expended her resources in build
ing the Siberian railroad; Ger
many is using all her available
money in naval construction;
France is always short of funds.
The United States has an in
come of $50, 100000 more than
expenses, and is the only great
nation that is in really easy
financial shape. Oh, this
country is a poor thing, es-
pecially when under Republican
control.

Argus: The water supply is in
adequate for the demands made up
on it by the village. Before the late
rains it became necessary to stop
the use of water for street sprinkling
as the tank was empty most OF the
time. 1t would mean disaster to
have a fire break out with short
supply of water in the tank and the
well dry. There is plenty of water
at depth of IS feet and it rises to
to within s or 10 feet of the surface,
but the presence of quicksahd soon
checks the flow. Something has to
be done to provide better supply,
as even with economy in the use OF
water when a few more customers
are added to the list OF patrons
there will not be enough.

Cattle are dying on the Arizona
ranges. Pasturage is poor.
Electric Railroads.

Leading business men of Albert Lea,
Minn., have taken hold OF the prop
osition to build an electric line from
that city to Geneva. A telegram
from Albert Lea says:
1.-THE village of Geneva will vote
July II upon a proposition to issue
bonds in the sum Of $4,000 to aid in
construction of the Albert Lea &
Geneva Electric railway, and July q
the township of Geneva will vote up
on the question OF issuing bonds to
the amount OF $500 for the same
purpose. The people in both village
and township are enthusiastic over
the proposition and it seems certain
both will carry, as the people up
there are very anxious for railway
connection with the outside world.
The Burlington. Cedar Rapids &
Northern will leave Geneva village
two and one.hal miles to the east OF
it's line."

Two or three minor items OF bust
ness were spoken of and short dis
cussion held on each. The council
then adjourned to July %.

Have Not Bean DISCHARGED.

Frank Knuth and Dell Batters, the
two boys arrested for stealing a b.
cycle from Mic Elvig have not, syet,
been discharged although they are
not locked up at the police station.
Mr.. Elvig, the owner OF the wheel, be-
lieves the above boys are the guilty
parties but 80 far there has not been
enough evidence collected to prove
the charge.
The wheel was stolen Tuesday
night. On Thursday morning Ely
King, who lives in the last house on
Bay street west, found the wheel
back of his place on the river bank.
AS the wheel was partially in the
water Mr.. King pulled it out and
put it farther up the bank. MIR. King
said that when he found the wheel
the chain was gone and the back
wheel was out of the frame. w
Sometime after this the two boys
in question were going along the
river bank finding a place to fish.
On discovering the wheel they came
up town and told Chief of p olice Roy,
who said they should get the cycle
and take it to the city hall. This
they did and were afterwards ar.
rested on a warrant sworn out by
Elvig for stealing the cycle.
The boys could not find the chain
and some other parts OF thesswhee
which were missing. The pieces
found show very plainly that q
chisel or hammer had been used tc
break some of the fixtures. Most o.
the balls in the bearings OF the whee
were also missing.
Mr.. Elvig has his wheel once
more, but whether he intends to try
to single out the thief Is not known

The Hearing of Nels Swanson for Seduc

for Trial.

The hearing of Nels Swanson, OF
Scandal Valley, charged with seduc-
ton by Lizzie Hansen, OF the same
place, occupied the greater part of
the day in Justice Collins court
Thursday.

Justice several days ago the hearing

each side an opportunity to gather
testimony.

From the testimony introduced by
the plaintiff Thursday it is plainly
evident that the two parties con
cerned have been lovers for number
of years. They live on adjourning
farms in Scandal Valley and there
fore have always seen and been with
each other more or less.
The plaintiff introduced severa
letters she had received from Swan
son when one or the other was
away. They are mostly all love
letters and tend to show that an en-
gagement really existed and does
exist today and that neither has
taken any action toward breaking
the engagement.
Relatives and friends OF Miss Han
sen all testify as to her past con
duct and good behavior.

And another wheel is missing.
This time two of the transcripts
force are a little anxious. During
Friday Evening John Raymond con-
cluded he owed her a call and that
about the only way to preserve
peace would be to call. Not caring
to walk to her home he asked Lee
Mcdonald, a fellow caseman, for the
loan of his cycle to which he con-
scented. Mr.. Raymond left the wheel
leaning against the fence. When he
took his departure to his surprise
and regret he was obliged to walk
home as the wheel was missing.
The cycle was an "Admiral'' of '9s
model. Although being ridden all
last season it was still in good con-
dition and not quite. worthless
enough to be lost or taken without
some compensation.

Freezing Weather In July

Would cause great discomfort and
loss, but fortunately it is seldom
known. A vast amount of misery is
caused at this season, however. by
Impoverished blood, poor appetite
and general debility. These condi.
tions may be remedied by enriching
the blood and toning up the stomach
with Hoods Sarsaparilla. This
medicine seems to put new life into
the whole physical system, simply
because of it's wonderful power to
purify. enrich and vitalize the blood,
create an appetite and invigorate
the digestive functions. We advise
you to get a bottle and try it If you
are not feeling just right. It will do
you more good than six weeks va
cation. 1t is the best medicine
money can buy.

TAKEN TO ST. CLOUD.
Chief Roy. Captures Fellow Wanted for
Stealing Liquor at That Place on
tho Fourth.

On the Fourth OF July liquor
house in St. Cloud was broken into
and a case of brandy stolen from the
stock. The authorities there were at
once notified and were soon on the
trail OF q couple of fellows who 1T
was supposed committed the crime.
The authorities here were asked to
ON the lookout and arrest the thieves
if theyput in an appearance here as
they were thought to be coming in
this direction. A couple OF days af-
terward Chief Roy arrested aman by
the name of Howe, who was said to
be one of the fellows. He was held
most Of the day. and was told that
if he would help the officers find the
other man wanted, Wm. Fitzgerald,
he would b. dealt with lightly.
The police force looked around
town the greater part OF the day but
could see nothing OF Fitzgerald.
Howe claimed he was not guilty
or concerned in the crime and as
there was apparently very little evi.
dence against him he was let go.
It was known that Fitzgerald had
worked at the Buchanan hotel here
sometime ago and that he was
known by some of the boys about
the city who were aware that he
was wanted.
Friday some youngsters who were
fishing on Maple island told Roy
that they thought Fitzgerald was
down on the island. On going
down the chief soon located the St.
Cloud law breaker and placed him
under arrest. He was taken to the
county Jail where he spent the night

rOWNE NOT A CANDIDATE.

Nh. TOWNE NOT A CANDIDATE.
G. A. Towne will not be a
candidate for congress in the
Sixth district this year. He
was the Republican nominee in
1894, and was elected by the
largest majority ever given a
congressman in the district.
He deserted the Republican
party during his term of Office
and was the candidate of the
opposition IN 1896 and again in
1898. In both campaigns he
was defeated by the Republican
nominee, Judge Page Morris.
The latter is again the Repub-
lican candidate, and his sup
porters believe he can defeat
Towne or any other Democratic
candidate. The announcement
of TONNES determination not to
run is made in the following
card published in the Duluth
Herald of Thursday;
LINCOLN, Neb., July Ito
the Editor of the Herald: I am
deeply sensible of the honor
and confidence shown me by the
generally expressed desire that
1 be again the candidate of the
allied forces for congress. Al
ter full consideration, however,
I have decided that I can do
more good to the cause by par
ticipating in the campaign
throughout the country. I
shall, therefore, not be candi-
date for the congressional NOM
lnation. The prospects for sue
cess in the district are excellent
,and I believe good strong
nomination by our forces will
result in the defeat of the Re-
publican candidate. Upon my
47eturn home I shall make a fuller
statement.
CHARLES A. TOWNE.
Towne's abandonment of the
local field will deprive the cam
paign of one of it's most inter-
esting features. When he
changed his politics the bulk of
the Democrats gladly accepted
him, but some refused to so, and
always opposed him. Many Re-
publicans continued to support
him, but he was always unable
to overcome the Republican
majority in the district. But
the contests were always sharp,
energetic and exciting. Towne
had warm personal friends and
determined political enemies,
and with Towne in the field the
congressional fight was the
~:hottest" of any.
The experience must have
been unpleasant to Mr.. Towne,
and it is doubtless a great relief
to him to be transferred to other
political fields. He will be one
of the leading campaigners fol-
Bryan this year.
And then maybe Adam Bede
will not follow him outside the
Sixth district.

So Bryan's supporters are the
friends of the republic? And
the Republican party is trying
to injure the republic? The
:absurdity of it is demonstrated
easily. Every southern state
that was in a rebellion against
the government will probably
go for Bryan. Every new Eng.
land and Northern state that
aided in preserving the republic
will probably go for Mckinley.
No, no. This republic will
never suffer from the control
of an administration that is
solidly supported by the New
England and Northern states.

QUAY SHOWED STRENGTH.
Developed When a Vote Was Taken on
Question of Consideration,
In the Senate.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24-After sharp
parliamentary squabble, in the senate,
Mr. Penrose moved that the resolution
involving the seating of Mr.. Quay be
taken up for consideration. In an aye
and nay vote the motion prevailed-3f
to 2S. The majority was so decisive as
to cause some surprise. 1t is known
that some senators, who will vote. if the
opportunity be offered. to seat Mr.. Quay
voted against consideration of the case,
while, on the contrary, others, who
voted for consideration, probably will
vote against seating him The vote,
therefore. cannot be regarded as quite
a test Of Mr.. Quay's absolute strength
in the senate. Following the taking up
the resolution. Mr.. Daniel Dem, Va J
delivered speech, in which he vigor
ously supported Mr., Quays right to a
seat.
Mr. Vest Dem, Mo- and Mr. For
aker rep, o. delivered notable
speeches anent the Hawaiian govern
