SOME OF the democratic Senators,
realizing that they have no chance Of
defeating the ship subsidy bill now that
a vote upon 1t has been agreed upon
for the 18th inst, will endeaVor 10
amend and make the measure so OBJ
fashionable to the schemers, who would
loo, the treasury for their own benefit,
that they may be induced to abandon
it. But there is little hope OF success
for men who are so keen set for gain
will have no compunctlon In defeating
amendments which would interfere with
their plans. Senator McLaurin, OF
Mississippi, yesterday gave notice OF
an amendment he will offer TO the ship
subsidy bill, intended ID prevent the
high officials OF the Unitsd States gov
eminent from receiving any benefit
from the enactment OF the proposed
law. The amendment requires that
the names OF all members Of firms or OF
incorporstors and stockholders OF all
corporations, whether owners Of sub
sidizsd ships or contractors to build the
same, shall DO made public. 1t then
proceeds as follows:
mo Senator or Representative or
President OF the United States or judge
of any court of the U0ited States shall
be directly or indirectly interested in
any contract under this act or In any
corporation having contract under
his act, or directly or indirectly re-
ceive any money or thing OF value or
worth under the provisions OF this act,
or be directly or indirectly interest 30
10 any corporation or vessel which is
beneficiary under this act"
1t is safe to say that in the improb-
able event of the adoption of this
amendment, many who are now deeply
interested in the passage of the bill
would let the measure die for want of
their support.

The MEMBERS OF the constitutional
convention realizing that long-suffer'
log people have grown weary OF the
volumes of "eloquence" and are entire
ly dissatisfied with the instrument be-
Ing framed, have endesvored to tenn
porarily stiAs criticism and curry favor
for their constitution By adopting a
measure by which taxation for four
years, at least, will be placed at thirty
cents on the hundred dollars instead
of forty, as at present-the amount to
be fixed by the Legislature after the
expiration OF that period. While eli
taxpayers would rejoice at the lessen
ing OF their burdens, this fact should
not prevent the Reputation OF the con.
stitution when it shall come before the
people if it be found unsatisfactory In
other respects, and from the present
outlook there will be many features
which will not meet with Endorsement
The legislature can reduce taxes just 81

"No one can tell 10 advance what the

The large book OF maps, called At
las and Directory of Marshall
County, published by the Warren
Sheaf, has been received. 1t is a fine
work, which is very useful for all who
are interested in Marshall county,
whether living inside or outside the
county. Each piece Of land is mar
ked with the owners name, and even
the spot where the house stands is
indicated. Churches, school houses,
post Offices, roads and section and
quarter lines, are given. The book
is very cheap, and every farmer
ought to have it in his book collec-
ton, as it will for all time to come
point out the spot where so many OF
our pioneers established their homes
and begun the struggle of life in
earnest, and where for years they
were engaged in the great work Of
developing the country. The book
has historical value, and this alone
ought to be enough to induce every
farmer to become the owner OF the
book.

Notice of Board of Health.

The Board OF Health OF the City Of

l.. That all owners or occupants
OF lots within the city limits be re-
quired to move from their respective

weeks.

postmasters to make mistakes in
getting letters in the wrong boxes,
have fixed a penalty Of 5000 on per-
sons taking mail out OF the Office
Dther than their own and not re-
burning it. The law is that people
shall look at their mail before taking
it out OF the Office and if they should
have mail other than their own they
must return it at once. It also in

commenting on the ruling, remarks

HOW THE WEST TESTED ROOSEVELT
1t Had Heard of the 'sRough Rider's'
Daring Horsemanship and it
Wanted to See.


On Mr.. Roosevelt's famous cam
paining trip across the country in
the fall Of 1900 is became apparent
that some of the plainsfolk were
hardly satisfied that what they had
heard OF the candidate for Vice-Pres-
ident was not too good to be true.
So there developed a unique system
for the entertainment of the d1stin-
guished guest. He was mounted on
the most spirited-and not always
the most thoroughly broken-horse
IN the neighborhood, and was invit-
ed to go for a ride with number of
eminent citizens who wanted to
"show him the country" Sooner or
later in the course OF that ride he
would be decoyed to stretch OF
open plain; the pace would be grad
ually increased until the ride became
a wild breakneck race in which only
the stoutest-hearted and steadiest-
headed riders could hold their own.
lime and again did this occur, and
no one was less disturbed by the
practice than was Governor Roose-
velt.-May Ladies' Home Journrl.

MAGNUS BYSTROM DEAD.
A llodel Young rlan Passed Away
Last Tuesday,

A Hodel Young nan Passed Away
Last Tuesday.
Magnus Bystrom died at his home
in Vega on the 10Th Of April, after a
long struggle with the dreaded dis
ease, consumption. He was born
Froson, Jamtland, Sweden Aug 20.
1873, hence was, at the time ofdeath,
% years:and 8 months OF age.
In ehronicling the death of this ex-
cellent young man the editor OF the
sheaf feels the loss to be personal
one. From the time he was about IF
teen years old until he was taken
sick. he was member OF our house
hold, and we had good opportunity
to learn and appreciate his bright
intelligence, manliness, devotion TO
duty, integrity and true Christian
character. He was in every respect
a model young man. He learned
the printers trade in the Sheaf office,
and during the winters he generally
attended school. Upon taking
charge of the post office, such was
the implicit confidence placed in him
that he was selected for the position
OF chief clerk, a duty which he dis
charged in a most satisfactory man
ner. Those who met him during
those years will not fail to remem-
Der his uniform courtesy, patience
and promptness.
He possessed great natural talents
for music, and when the band was
organized, he became one of it's lead
ing spirits, and he was also a mem
Der OF the choir in the Swedish Luth-
church. In the work of the Young
Peoples Society he also took an ac-
tive part. In all gatherings OF a SO
cial nature his bright mind, grace
ful manners and warm and genial
nature, always attracted attention.
From his mother he inherited deep
religious nature, and in all his doings
he never forgot to act the part of a
Christian young man.
/ uriag the winter OF 1899 thefe
was a noticeable impairment Of his
health, and a dry cough troubled
him at times. He took a trip to the
Pacific coast during the summer
and upon his return felt much bet
ter. In the fall he again resumed
work in the post Office, but only for
a short time. 1t became apparent
that the invidious disease, consump-
tion, was preying upon him, and he
spent some time in St.Paul during
the winter OF 1900 to receive treat
ment from specialist in pulmonary
diseases. A year ago this spring he
went to Sweden in the hope that a
change Of climate in conjunction
with treatment at the Mosil sana-
torinm for consumptives, would re-
store his health, bnt in vain. Realiz-
ing that his end was near, he return
led to America that he might see his
blks and be near them when the
inal dissolution came. During his
absence his mother had gone to her
.tsrnal rest. He arrived in Warren
April 18th, and died on April Doth.
| Although cut down in his young
manhood, he lived long enough to
establish a character for honor,
usefulness and devotion to duty,
Iof which many an older man might
we'll be proud
| His funeral was set for two
o'clock this afternoon at the Swe-
lish Luth. church in Vega, and Rev.
