b. WHEAT, BUT CHAFF TOO.

1t is argued in favor Of The frs,
proposed amend nent to the
state constitution, that it would
greatly enlarge the power of thu
legislature with reference to the
subject Of tax ,tion. Perhaps it
would, probably it would; but il
would also exempt from taxation
all church property of whateve +
description, and it would repeal
the inheritance tax law, one OF
the wisest pieces of Legislation
ever passed.
If we want an amendment to
enlarge the power of the legisla
ture in levying taxes, let US have
one that does not include these
Objectionable features. Let US
vote this amendment down, and
compel the legislature to give US
one that will not give US, along
with the good, a greater measure
of, evil.

A HAPPY, SOLUTION.

One Of the most urgent objec.
tons to the primary election
when the law first went into eff
feet, we are hearing less and less
about every year. It is that the
primaries impose a hardship
upon the candidates by making
them fight two strenuous battles
only two months apart.
This unpopular feature seems
to be righting itself. It now
happens that in almost every
county or district where there is
q hot local cam paign, the election
contest dwindles into a very one
sided affair, in which there is
little enthusiasm and little neces-
sity for expensive campaigning.
In fact, if the general election
gives promise Of being lively, the
enthusiasm over the primaries is
lessened.
Of course there are exceptions;
every election year there will be

IS JOHN LIND JEALOUS?

One of the interesting features
of the present state campaign is
the silence of John Lind. So far
IN the campaign his voice has not
been heard once from the stump,
although it is now announced
that he will make two speeches
as a sort of snapper" to the
campaign of W. S. Hammond,
the democratic candidate for
congress in the Second district
against McCleary.
The only public support that
the ex-governor has given Mr..
Johnson in this campaign is an
open letter to his friends, pub.
lished in the Duluth Herald, in
which he said the present gov
ernor was fine gentleman, had
made a good record, ETC., and
ought to be reelected. -.
Now John Lind is perhaps the
foremost democrat in the state,
or was a short time ago, and this
silence is beginning to cause con
siderable speculation. He has
always been one of the strong
speakers of the campaign, and
two years ago he did as much, al
most, as Johnson himself, in Sc
curing the latter's election. Why
lis he dumb? Il
To an observer, it looks very
much as though Lind we're just a
little jealous of the rise. of the
present governor. The former
New Ulm man used to be pretty
much the whole democratic party
in Minnesota. His election over
Eustis was a triumph which at
once made him a democratic idol,
and an idol he has since re.
NAMED, until, perhaps, the last
year or two.
The election of Johnson two
years ago rather threw Lind in
the shade, and if by any chance
he should be re. elected, an honor
no democratic governor in Min
nesota has ever yet been shown,
Lind would be relegated to
second place in the public mind,
for sure. Possibly John Lind
sees the danger and wouldn't be
overly grieved if his good ST.
Peter friend should be retired to
private life.

John K. Curtis, foreman of the c. H.
Wiley telephone crew, came down from
Medora Wednesday night to get medi-
cal treatment. Geo. Powers, of the
same crew, came down at the same
time to meet his wife.
The c. H. Wiley telephone crew of
IS men should be into Dickinson the
first of the coming week. They have
been s%tringing the wire for the Hughes
& Deiters long-distance line between
this city and Glendive. Through the
Bad Lands the work progressed very
slowly, otherwise the line would have
been completed some time ago. Lines
from the country south connect at Bel
field, Sentinel Butte and Wibaux, and
at Glendive a line runs north connecting
with the government ditch work. AS
o o as MIR. Wiley's crew arrives here
the men will probably be taken south to
repair the Dakota Telephone Co. line
for a few days, after which it is expected
that Mr.. Wiley will take his men to Bis
marck to work on the long-distance line
between that point and Fargo, a crew
having started at the last named point
some weeks since. AS soon as this
work is completed Dickinson will have
direct telephone service with the Twin
Cities. 1t has been a hard problem to
get help and material this year and
work that otherwise would have been
completed in the early summer is still
unfinished.

PLENTY OE COAL

| The statement that a new vein of an- ! thracite coal averaging twelve feet in thickness has been discovered in the IMahanoy valley, in Schuylkill county, is of great importance to the whole state of Pennsylvania. It not only as sures a tremendous contribution to the prosperity of the commonwealth, but 1t upsets and confounds the prophets who have been telling us that it will not be . many years until the coal supply is ex- hausted.
 AS long as thirty years ago, when the ! anthracite tonnage reached twenty-f1ye million tons a year, it was declared that coal was being mined so rapidly that in a short time the industry would cease to be of any conseuuence. Now the annual product of anthracite is over eighty million tons of a value at the mines approXimating one hundred and seventy million dollars. and all of thls except a few thousand tons comes rom the seams of Pennsylvania,s soil colorado and New Mexico produce a little anthracite of an inferior oIaIitv but Jennsylyania enjoys a natural mo- nopoly of this high-grade fuel that cannot be touched by competition. It IS said that estimates of the value of the new vein run all the way from fff- ty million dollars to one hundred mil lion dollars. It is undoubtedly enor- mously valuable, as it extends a dis tance of twelve miles and all of it is mlnable. This is another sample of the uneXampled generosity with which providence has dealt toward that re- zion on the map which is bounded by Pennsylvania lines
 The discovery is interesting also from a scientific standpoint. We also constantly being warned that our po- tential energies are being wasted or exhausted, and that the time must come, and cannot be very long delayed, when the fuel question will be hard to meet. These prophecies, while based upon scientific knowledge, invariably exclude the likelihood of new discover 1es. They seem to take it for granted that all the earth's secrets are known and It's riches revealed, whereas one needs but to read the daily record of the worlds doings, and check them up. to learn that nature has made provi- sion for map beyond the ken of man to foretell.-Pittsburg Gazette Times.

INTERESTING OLD PLAYHOUSE.

INTERESTING OLD PLAYHOUSE.
 The history of the Tacon Theatre, of Havana, which was recently purchas- ed by the Spanish Dramatic Company for $550 0O00,, is interesting. In the year 1885 Francisco Marty, who was then the leader of a band of pirates which had price on his head, was captured and ordered to be put to death. Seeing there was no hope for him, he asked leave to see General Tacon, who was Governor General of Havana, an told him if his life was spared he would denounce his entire band and assist him in ridding the island of the num- Der of pirates which infested it at that period. Accordingly General Tacon gave him a two weeks parole, and in side of & week Marty had denounced his fellow pirates and turned them over to the government. For this ser- vice he was pardoned.
 In 1861 Marty asked for the conees- sion to build a national theatre on the site of Parque Central. It was granted to him. General Tacon went further anu dllOWSu ulIl lue pIlNllbS6 OI tile use of four convicts who were then confined in Moro Castle to assist him in the work, each convict receiving the sum of 20 cents day. In 1888 the theatre was finished and Marty, as a proof of the gratitude he felt toward General Tacln for lsparing his fife, named it El Teatro Tacon. During the instruction in Cuba many exciting in cidents took place there. In one in- stance a regiment of Cuban insurgents barrcaded themselves in the theatre and held it against the Spaniards for three days Finally they were starved out, and as they were making their es- cape all were shot.
 The theatre is built of white stone, with decorations of white marble and facing Central Park, being in the cen- tre of the fashionable district of Ha- vana It is one of the largest theatres in the world, seating over three thous- and persons, Review.

Speculation Proves of a Desultory
 Character.

New York, Nov. 7.-The speculation in stocks proved to be of a desultory character to-day, in spite of the signs or animation in the early selling.
