The PRIMARY ELECTION.
Buckman, Tanner and Richardson
II 49, Nominated. -, -"

The primary election of Tuesday
developed a great surprise for The
republican leaders in Little Falls.
Their home candidate for congress
was badly cut in the city, in Royal
ton. and in the county generally. In
the Third ward in Little Falls, where
Editor Fuller. MIR. Buckman's con.
gressional manager, lives, Foster
got more votes than he did in any
other precinct in the county. This
is, OF course. susceptible of various
Interpretations. While the general
vote was light, the republicans polled
practically all their strength in the
city. Instead OF 500 majority in the
county, Buckman will have 454
and in the city 154 instead of
800 to 400. In the district he ap.
parently has around $50 to 800
majority over Foster. The result OF
the primary election on congressman
will make DR.. Dubois and his friends
smile. The personality of Foster,
who was practically unknown, is not
responsible tor the Buckma slump.
Evidently some other reason must
begiven.
Foster carried Douglas, Meeker,
Sherburne and Todd. losing Wa
dena by 1.
Sheriff Tanner won over Bentfel d
by a great majority, carrying most
OF the precincts, including every pre-
cinct in the citv. The sheriff's nomi-
nation was expected, but his friends
hardly thought the endorsement
would be go strong. It means an
easy victory for the sheriff in No.
vember.
Richardson defeats Adams by
around 200. and from expressions
heard, many republicans will carry
their feelings over to November.
A light vote was polled in the
country districts. In the city there
was como dissatisfaction over the

missioners and committee never looked
over this route and appropriated the

there will be but very few settlers to
keep up the road, and where it will dis

Carrie and Kissing

Mrs. Carrie Nation at last accounts was in Joliet-outside. not inside the walls. Much experience with jails has given this worthy woman a fine taste for penitentiary towns. Among the apcthegms delivered by the lady to the admiring populace was this pearl of thought; T would just as soon kiss spittoon as q man who smokes" As spittCon is q non-resisting, inanimate object, no protest may be looked for from that quarter, but as men and brethren, and not spittoons-Mrs. Ma tion having been carefully inspected We may say that her decision is re- ceived in masculine quarters with gen. eral cheerfIlness. Some women seem tn entertain the impression that only the fair sex is to be consulted on the matter of Osculation. This is alto gether wrong. for as we journey down the vale of life we find that a good many men are a trifie particular iI the reception as well as the distribu- tion of chaste salutes, and there are not few times in every mans life. however loveless, when he feels that it would please him if the lady would work off her friendly greeting on a GUS pidor or any other ornamental piece of bric-a-brac. according to her taste and fancy. As for Mrs. Nation, We can only repeat that we bow with alacrity to her sovereign will.-Chicago Post.

A gasoline locomotive has just been completed in Kansas City for use at a Mexican mine. It has had its success full trial trips, and in few days will be taken apart and shipped to the mine, which is at Batopilas, 1SO miles from the Mexican Central railway across the Chihuahua mountains. None of it's parts weighs more than 250 pounds. as the whole engine has to be carried from the railway to it's destination on the backs of burros. It will run in a tunnel five feet wide and six feet high, and will take the place of sixty burros which now pull the cars of ore from the mine. As the tunnel is small and it's length great, the locomotive had to be constructed so that no fumes escaped To accomplish this. the carbonic- oxide gas is passed through a water wash in tine same way gas is passed through .'scrubbers" at gas works. It is claimed that the process will effectively prevent fumes from escaping into the tunnel and that the combustion will be perfect.

dlers. Yet. in the campaign two years ago. one of the chief arguments of the democratic press against the territorial and local republican tickets was that it would never do to uphold party which stood for the proposition that a shark should be called shark The expo sure proved to be of immeasurable value to the territory. Honest mining was given an impetus, and investments to the extent of millions have been made since then. There is not nearly so much occasion now to warn the country against fake mining. for the sWindlers find the investing public bet ter educated; but we are glad to note, nevertheless. that one democratic paper is inclined to throw it's influence to the side of honesty in mine promotion.

Protection and Drawbacks.

That the tariff is, in it's last analy-
 sis, a question of wages to the working men employed in an industry has been brought home to the American people time and again. Our experience under
 the Wilson tariff was a wholesale il- lustration of this fact. Another comes
 at the present time, in the tin plate in-
 dustry.

 each of 100 pounds, to use in the manu- fracture of cans for the export of oils. The Welsh and American tin plate manufacturers are both bidding.
 Wages in Wales are much lower than in the United States. and the Welsh manufacturers have underbid the American ones.

 or cases are used by the Standard Oil Company in putting up refined oils for export. Hence the tin used in making them will pay in reality only l per cent of the regular duty.

We hesitate to believe that the Miners Union, as union. had anything to do with it. or even knew that such an act was contemplated. Nine chances to one, it was the work of some foreigner. who. while he may have been a mem Der of the union, did the dard deed entirely upon his own responsibility.
 Now that this unfortunate occurrence has taken place, the least the Congress Miners Union can do is to ferret out the criminal or criminals and show themselves to be blameless in the mat ter. The News Herald is not in sym pathy with unions when they are the cause of such work as this. directly or indirectly. but We believe they should be given a fair chance to show them selves innocent of any wrong-doing in this particular case. - Wickenburg NeWs-Herald.

Two Things Arizona Needs.

Statehood and q comprehensive sys- tenn of irrigation are the two things Arizona needs to insure system of de velopment that will leac to permanent prosperity" So remarked former Gov ernor Murphy to a Washington Post reporter recently. and everybody who knows the resources anHr the possibili- ties of our wonderful sister territory will agree with the statement.
 On this foundation the outlook for Arizona is very flattering. It does not secm m possible that statehood will be delayed beyond next winter, while the territory will of course share in the benefits conferred by the irrigation law passed by the last congress. But even without these essential privileges Ari- zona has made wonderful strides in de- vclopnent and general progress, and has been enabled to demand admission to the union in tones the most strenu- GUS and W hich the prejudiced territory hater dares no longer ignore Statehood fC: Arizona.

For a long time the only complaint widely made against rural mail de- livery, notes the Providence Journal, was that which came from the farmers themselves, which the system served. They were in this way deprived of an excellent excuse for going down to the post office. Now the country store keepers, especially in rural New York. are complaining that the delivery is seriously hurting their business. The farmer who spent hours in the post office and store used to spend money there at almost every visit. Perhaps in time rural free delivery will change country life so decidedly that the rustic novel and play of today will be ana chronisms in spite of the real sugar barrels and brindle COWS.

Our esteemed contemporary, Mir. Puck, whose pointed pen has had a
 large share in shaping A VALUED party policies, has come RECRUIT. to the support of the
 statehood movem-nt, and he is valued recruit. The center page cartoon of last week depicts Co., lumbia at work transferring new stars to the flag, and in front of her stand three brawny young Americans. New Mexico, Arizona and Oklahoma, to whom she is saying: Your star shall politicians in congress will let me" The cartoon is in Keppler's best style. The leading editorial for the same issue is headed Clear the Waiting List" and says:
 That much abused term plain duty is once more in sight. This time it's appearance is in behalf of three territories, Arizona, Oklahoma and New Mexico. Honorably. the western trio have passed all preliminary tests and unitedly. they now demand the diploma of statehood. Give it to them. Do not let plain duty be sidetracked again. Certain high-minded statesmen at Washington. inspired no doubt by the most cCmmendable motives, are afraid that a few dangerous democrats will break into the senate chamber if the three territories are promoted. That alone stands in the way Of their advancement, and all observing Ameri- cans, familiar with the enyiable record of the republican congress as to Cuba trusts and the tariff, will admit at once that the fears are well grounded II is quite true that with these terri tories advanced to statehood, a squat of newly chosen senators would en- camp beside the Potomac. The horrible fear that they might be irresponsible fanatics who favored Cuban recip- rocity, antitrust legislation and tariff reform. haunts the patriotic republican day and night, and in justice to his be- loved country, he will take no chances Adlniring though We do such foresight and caution, We can not help saying a good word for the territories concerned. How refreshing, how inspiring II would be if congress would simply admit them. as they deserve to be admitted, and not beat about the political bush. lodging and twisting, until every delay and subterfuge possible has been prac- ticed. Clear the waiting list and be fair
 Puck is too severe it it's criticism of the republican members of the senate and house. The overwhelming ma jor- ity given the statehood bill in the house demonstrated that the republic ans of that body were practically q unit for the measure, and when a vote is reached in the senate-as it will be early in December-the majority there will be as striking. But Puck is do- ing valuable service in educating the eastern public as to the plain duty of admitting the territories.
