A FEW days ago the railroads raised
wages 10 per cent prosperity did it. .
Possibly. Some thought that apprehen-
sion did it. Nobody really knew except
the roads. No sooner is the news fash
ed over the wire that freight rates will
advance 10 per cent than prosperity
is offered to explain this also. The 10
per cent raise in wages costs the roads
seventy millions. Advanced freight rates
will bring in. roughly. hundred and
thirty millions increase. The roads
figure sixty millions annual profits as a
result of the two raises. 1t is now per
fectly clear that the roads raised wages
merely as an excuse to advance rates,
but the lazy intelligence will prefer
prosperity as the explanation. For
republican prosperity's' sake the con-
sumner, and shipper, will dump net
sixty millions into the railroads treasury.

The annual message OF the president
was read in congress Tuesday and is
considered a good state paper. The
conflict between capital and labor is
considered, in this way: deliberations
of labor and declarations of capital both
do much good, and can do much evil.
Opposition to either should be opposi-
ton to the evil in them Each must re-
frain from arbitrary. tyrannous inter-
ference with the rights of others.
Every wage-worker and every employer
must be guaranteed his liberty and his
right to do as he likes with his labor or
property, so long as he does not interior
with the rights of others. Disaster will
come to both if each takes an habitual
attitude of sour hostility toward the
other. We are neither for the rich man
as such, nor the poor man as such: but
for the upright man. rich or poor

ANOTHER EXTENSION.
Tho Walhalla Line Will Be Extended
into Cavalier. =

Considerable interest is taken by
residents in the north eastern portion OF
this county in the efforts of H. A. Mayo
to induce the Great Northern to build
an extension five miles west of Walhalla
to some valuable clay beds in that
vicinity. Mr.. Mayo has sent twenty-slx
bags of the clay to eastern manu-
facturers. who have manufactured press
ed brick and pottery from samples sent
and all pronounce the deposits OF clay
very valuable, and adapted to the manu-
facture of pressed brick, etc.
After consultation with President
Hill, Mr.. Mayo secured promise from
him that branch line would be put in
by the Ct. Northern. providing there was
certain supply of wood available IN
that vicinity also. Mr.. Hill at once sent
Prof. Waldron, of the agricultural
college, to the terminus of the proposed
line, and careful estimate OF the
amount of timber has been prepared
Prof. Waldron estimated that there were
thousands of acres of poplar that would
cut from twenty-five cords to ninet!
cords of wood, and it is understood that
the supply available is more than the
amount set by President Hill. 1t /:
therefore expected that the new lint
will be put in in the early spring. Thu
clay beds are located near the celebrated
Fish Trap in the Pembina river, which
was visited annually by the Chippew'
Indians, who caught their years suppl.
each summer and dried it for future
use. The building of the new lin
would mean the opening of very i'm
portant new industry in that vicinity.

of the comfort of the suffering residents

AN effort is to be made in the supreme
court of the United States to prevent
the democratic members of congress
elect from Virginia from taking their
seats. Their alleged reason is the new
constitution of that state that deprives
the negroes from voting. The republi-
can party would like to reduce every
democratic state in the union to the
state of colonies and to govern them as
they are now governing the Philippines.
In other words the leaders of the domi-
nant party want their control of the
government to be made absolute.
