1t would seem to come with poor
grace from the Washburn Leader to
criticise the governor for his action
in endeavoring to keep down the valu
alton of the Washburn road before
the state board of equalization, which
the Leader does indirectly by reprint
ing an article from Barnes county
farmer originally published in the
Fargo Forum. The Washburn road is
one Of those railroad projects sup.
posed to be in the interest of the peo-
pie living along the line, and the gov
ernors action was doubtless influ-
enced by a desire to give the road and
the people the best end of the equali-
cation. Some time ago the Leader
had bitter attack on the other mem
bers of the board for raising the valua-
ton of this road. Now it attacks the
governor for voting to reduce it. The
Leader is both ungrateful and incon-
sistent in it's attitude.

CASE OF SHERIFF BANNON.

Grafton Paper Does Not Take a Very
Serious View Of the Proposed I'm.
parchment Of Sheriff 1annon.
Sufficient names have been secured
at Grafton to the petition being cdrcu-
lated for the calling OF a grand jury
for investigating charges brought
against Sheriff Bannon of Walsh coun-
ty. It is alleged chat the sheriff has
been protecting blind piggers of the
county. The move to have him i'm
peached was started by r. J. O'Dowd
and John H. Lewis, who have been in
Grand Forks city for several weeks,
evading punishment for keeping blind
pigs in Grafton. Commenting on the
move the Grafton News and Times
says:
In December last, r. J. O'Dowd and
John H. Lewis Commonly known as
"Black JOHNNY were arrested upon
the complaint of a spoter named
Hanson, charged with blind plugging
in this city. They had hearing and
were held to appear for trial at the
recent January term Of the district
court. When their cases were called
for trial at that term they filed the
necessary papers to compel change
of venue, and their cases we're accord
ingly sent to Pembina county for trial
and accordingly released. No sooner
we're they out ON bail than they imme
diately resumed the dispensing Oh
"booze" at the old stand. This being
brought to the notice of the states at
torney, and feeling that SO fragrant {
violation of the law could not be toler
ated, he caused an inquest into the
matter to be held and papers were is
sued for the apprehension Of these es
timable gentry on the charge Of con
tempt Of court. Before they could b.
again arrested, however, the matter o
the inquest in some manner leaket
out and this duo Of injured innocent'
Immediately took French leave to-
East Grand Forks, where they hav'
ever since been sojourning.

nent' business backing which thu
project possesses O'Dowd, Lewis an,

BRICK STOOD IT BEST.

A New York dispatch to the Balti- more Morning Herald gives an experts views of what the big fire showed in re- lation to building material. Ira H. Woolson is the authority, and the dis patch says:
 Professor Woolson has made a spe- cial study of materials uced in build ing, has charge of the testing labora- tory in the engineering building at Col umbia university, and has conducted a number of experiments for the city government in the last year or two. Though he has thus been enabled to arrive at number of conclusions, he was desirous of comparing the results previously attained with those of the more colossal ordeal in Baltimore He therefore visited that city a few days ago for an inspection of the burnt district.

DOCTORS COFFEE Aud His Daughter Match Him.

Coffee drinking troubled the family of a physician of Grafton, W. Va, who describes the situation briefly:
 Having suffered quite a while from vertigo, palpitation of the heart and many other Arrangements of the nerv- out system, and finding no relief from usual methods of treatment, I thought to, see how much there was in the Post um argument against coffee.
 "So resorted to Postum, cutting off the coffee, and to my surprise and sat- isfaction have found entire relief from all my sufferings, proving exclusively the baneful effect of coffee and the way to be rid of it.
 T have found Postum completely takes the place of coffee both in flavor and in taste. It is becoming more pop ular every day with many of our peo- pie and is having great demand here.
 My daughter, Mrs. Long, has been a sufferer for long time from attacks of acute indigestion. By the dismissal of coffee and using Postum in its place she has obtained complete relief
 q have also heard from many others who have used your Postum very fa- yorable accounts of it's good effects.
 tI prescribe Postum in place of coffee in 8 great many cases, and l believe that upon it's merits Postum will come into general use" Name given by Postum Co, Battle Creek, Mich.

A POWER ON THE THRONE.
Japan's Mikado is More Than an orien-
 tai Figurehead.

Japan's Mikado is More Than an Orien-
 tai Figurehead.
 Comparatively few foreigners have seen the Mikado of Japan closely. Tn spite of its wonderful advance in occi- dental ideas in recent years, Japan re- tains enough of it's orientalism to insist upon a certain seclusion for it's ruler. Mutsuhito breaks away from his purely oriental environment occasionally. He goes among his people incognito. While strolling through the streets of TolSio as young man attired as common Jap- anese sailor, Mutsuhito encountered the first American he had ever seen. Walk ing boldly up to this son of Uncle Sam, the boy emperor introduced himself as a young sailor, and, finding the Arneri- can could speak a little Japanese, he poured forth flood of eager questions. The traveller from the United States told the supposed sailor wonderful tale of the results of American civilization. The imperial ambition received new stimulus, and that interview with an American accomplished much for Ja- pan.
 Mutsuhito- emperor of Japan, is the present representative of the old est royal dynasty extant. He is the one hundred and twenty-first emperor of his dynasty, which dates back in an unbroken line 2,555 years. He is the di- rect descendant of Ginmu, the Divine Conqueror," who, according to Japanese mythology descended from heaven on the white bird of the clouds" Ginmu' s first task in his mythological role of di- vine conqueror, was the subjugation of the Alps, a savage, warlike race, whose descendants are still found in the north- ern extremity of Japan. Having sub- dued these fierce Amos, Ginmu pro- claimed himself to be "Tenshi," the .'Son of Heaven,' and established the still existing dynasty in 660 B. c. It is no exaggeration, therefore, to say that through the veins of Mutsuhito-tenwo flows thevery bluest of ''blue blood.''
 Personally, the emperor has pleas ant appearance. He is very tall for a Japanese, almost six feet. He is mus cular and well proportioned. He has a broad, high forehead, and, judged by the most exacting standard of manly beauty, he is a handsome sovereign.
 The Mikado takes more interest in the government than any of his prede- cessors. He reads the papers and att tends cabinet councils. He takes all the important American and English mag azines. He has astonished the upper classes of Japanese by knowing some thing about the government of his peo- pie.
 The Mikado lives in palace built in the American way, with steel frame work made in Pittsburg, Pa. This was done to avoid accidents by earthquakes, so common in Japan.
 Haruko, empress of Japan, was a daughter of a Japanese noble. She is f1fty-four years old, two years older than her husband. Her name, Haruko, means "springtime."
