Greek and

1.-THE struggle Cor racial supremacy
between the Slav and Helene" says a
writer on Macedonia, "a struggle as
old as the hills, Is here identified with
and tmbittered by the religious strife
which RACES between the followers Of
the Bulgarian exarch and those Of the
Greek patriarch the schismatic and
the orthodox parties. This animosity
pervades and poisons all the relations
Of life, private no less than public. A
Greek will on nc account speak to or
snkke hands with a Bulgar. Nor will
q Bulgar patronize a shop kept by a
Greek. The antipathy between the
two naticnalities amounts almost to
physical repugnance. 1t far exceeds
any feeling Of enmity that either OF
them may entertain toward the Turk,
who has ground them both to the dust
during five centuries of the most IN.

Wellman, the Washington cores

Hearst presidential boom is on the
wane to a considerable extent. He
declares that Hearst has agreed to
sell out to Judge Parker and that he
will take for his pay a cabinet posi-
tion if Parker should be elected.
The recent declaration of Grover
Clevelnd in his support of Judge
Parker has taken all the wind out of
the sails of the Hearst boom, and he
is willing now to turn all of his sup
port over to Parker when the con-

OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER
UNNECESSARY WORRY

Pierre Dakotan: In order to make
her bluff stronger, Mitchell offers to
give the use of half a dozen imagin-
airy buildings located in various parts
OF the village for capital purposes.
She would have the senate in one
end Of the town, the house in the
other and the state offices and COM
mittee rooms scattered hither and
yOn in the numerous old shacks
about the burg-a regular merry-go-
round. Pierre will relieve her of
this annoyance and humiliation.
1T has been some years since Brer.
Billinghurst has been in Mitchell
and he is not supposed to know just
what Mitchell has provided in the
way of a capitol building when the
state capital is located at Mitchell.
He is talking from a very selfish
standpoint in this matter, in that
he is somewhat interested in retain
ing the capital at Pierre. At the
same time while Brer. Billinghurst
assumes that he wants to be fair in
the capital discussion he has gone a
long way from the path of truth to
give anything Of a true statement of
the capitol building at Mitchell.
he wants the people to believe that
the senate will be in one part OF the
city, the house Of representatives IN
another part, in fact, everything
scattered all over the city. Brer.
Billinghurst is mistaken-very much
80. The capitol building that
Mitchell will present for the states
use Is one that will accommodate
every officer Of the state, with fire
proof vaults in which to store the
valuable papers. and sufficient rooms
for tie accommodation Of the senate
and the house of representatives and
committee rooms. Brer. Billing
hurst hasn't the least conception Of
the magnitude of the magnificent
stone structure that Mitchell is
erecting for the permanent capital,
and il he can take the time and run
down tc Mitchell. which he can do
very easily on account Of our Access
sibility, we will show him in the
course Of a couple Of months what
Mitchell is going to do in the way
of capitol a building.

Considine Buys Big Theater.

SEATTLE, Wash, March 26.-John
COnsidne has purchased a half inter
est in a big theater on Broadway in
New York city. This information reach
ed Seattle in telegram received by
Tom COnsidne, brother Of the New
Yorker.
Tom Considine has known for some
time that his brother was after one of
the many Gotham playhouses, but did
not know which one or exactly what
line of theatricals John would take up.
When the latter left Seattle it was with
the intention of entering the vaudeville
circuit of the east, although the tele-
gram taken together with past letters,
would convey the idea that Considine
will in the future devote himself to the
so-called legitimate lines.
He did not state what theater he had
purchased, but Tom Considine says it
is one of the three big playhOuses on
Broadway.
