their country, except only in the war
with Mexico.
Ormand Minis was % years of age
when he left the farm in New Hamp-
shire and came to Boston. 1t was in
1854, after having been employed in
various capacities, that he bought the
drug business in Cambridge street that
he conducts to-day. The year before
he had joined the Lancers, with his
two brothers, and no more ardent SOL
diers belonged in the militia than the
young Lancers from New Hampshire.
1t happened that Gen. Sherman S
battery of United States artillery came
to Boston from Newport that fall for
the purpose of giving an exhibition on
drill, and at once he was enchanted.
After that nothing would do for him
but the artillery.
Early in 1854 he enlisted in a new
battery raised under command of
Capt. Moses G. Cobb, being made first
sergeant on the night of his enlist
ment After three years of service
he was made fourth lieutenant, and
in 1858 received command of the bat
terry. During his tenure of command
he made this battery famous for it's
efficiency and perfect organization, the
first battery of state militia artillery
ever raised in the United States.
Il resigned from the command in
November, 1S60," said Col. Minis, "and
my first public appearance with it, my
last parade, in fact, was on the occa-
sion of the review ON Boston common
by the prince of Wales, now King Ed
ward, who was on visit to America
That was a good battery. They drill
ed to a high state of efficiency
"On July 4, 1858, we accomplished
the feat of playing the bass drum parts
to three national anthems he Star
Spangled Banner My Country, 'Tis of
Thee and Hail Columbia our
heavy guns, during celebration on
Boston Common. Yes, sir, and we
only lost one beat due TO the failure
of one of the guns to go off. That was
the first and about the only time that
sort of thing was aver done
Then came the civil war The bat
terry with which he had been connect
ed was among the first to volunteer
for service. 1t went out early in 1861,
Under command of Capt. A. M, Cook,
but Capt. Minis, though not a member,
gave efficient aid in equippng and
drilling the battery, even accompany
ing it as far as New York when it
started on active service.
Upon his return he found Moses G..
Cobb raising second battery. Young
Minis entered heartily into the task of
assisting him in enlisting and making
ready. Capt. Cobb left the state
abruptly, after an unfortunate review
at Quincy where the battery was en-
camped, and upon the offer of Gov.
Andrew Capt. Minis took charge Ac-
cording to Inspector General Marcy, In
an official report to Gen. Mcclellan,
the battery left Boston on August s,
1861, lin as good condition and as well
drilled as Shermans," then the crack
battery of the nation.

BABY WASTED TO SKELETON.
In Torments with Terrible Sores on
Face and Body-Tore at Flesh
Cured by Cuticura.

"My little son, when about year
and half old began to have sores
come out on his face. They began to
come on his arms, then on other parts
of his body, and then one came on his
chest, worse than the others. At the
end of about year and a half of suf-
fering he grew so bad had to tie his
hands in cloths at night to keep him
from scratching the sores and tearing
the flesh. He got to be a mere skele-
ton and was hardly able to walk. /
sent to the drug store and got cake
of Cuticura Soap and box of Cuticura
Ointment, and at the end of about two
months the sores were all well. He
has never had any sores of any kind
since, and only for the Cuticura Rem
edies my precious child would have
died from these terrible sores. l used
only one cake of Soap and about three
boxes of Ointment. Mrs. Egbert Shell

SHOE SINNERS HAVE
BOARDED. THE !.
BAND WAGON
Afr May 1, Is Gents Will Be
Charged For Tan Shoes and
For oiling.

+ No more will the man with the
Hearst colored shoes revel in the
ecstacies Of the brown and tan, for the
shoe sinners have risen in their might,
and on and after May 1, fifteen cents
will be the minimum charged for
'ablacking" pair of tan "kicks." The
dozen or more sinners in the combine,
embracing both East Grand Forks and
Grand Forks, have also issued a fiat
concerning the oiling of shoes and the
ten cents charged in the past will look
very Insignificant in the light Of the
new fifteen cent tariff.
The sinners gave as their reason for
the raise that fact, that the doctors
of Grand Forks haye raised their call
ing rates from $3.50 to $500, making it
more costly to get sick; the BARRIERS
have raised their rates, making 1T
more costly to get trimmed; the hack
drivers, have raised their rates, maxi
ing it less costly to walk; the laundry
men have boosted prices, making it
cheaper to change once a month-all
these little raises making the people
more appreciative of life in North Da-
kota. On top of this the point is
raised" that it takes about four times
as long to shine or polish a pair of
tan shoes as to perform similar
operation upon the ordinary blacks.

DESPERATION.

Driven to the last ditch in it's I'M
successful assault upon Senator Hans
brough, the morning democratic organ
of this city can find justification Of
Senator Foraker's opposition to the
president and declares that Foraker's
position does not establish the fact
that he is working in the interest of
the corporations. On the other hand,
according to the democratic organ,
Hansbrough's advocacy of the presi-
dents program in dealing with the
corporate interests is strongly sugges-
tive that he is in reality working
against the president.
Could hatred and malice find more
specious argument? Surely our senior
senator may we'll conclude that the
opposition tactics of the Herald will
mislead only those who prefer to be
mislead. The people of the state want
facts and truth in politics as we'll
as in private life, and inconsistent
arguments merely lead to the defeat
of those who resort to them. The rule
or ruin policy of the Herald is thing
of the past and the people will not
only think for themselves but will not
allow any organ to present them in
consistencies upon which to base their
judgment

II never deserted that woman. She

At the trial which was started for
the second time on Friday morning,
the testimony of the woman who has

ARE INFERIOR RAILS.
RESPONSIBLE FOR
WRECKS?
Local Railway Officials Blame
Steel Men For smashups
on Great Northern.

The recent disastrous wrecks on
the Great Northern railway have been
laid to several causes. A broken rail
Is supposed to have ditched No.
near Ojata, tampering with the track
Is the cause assigned to the Bartlett
wreck, and spreading Of the rails to
the recent Blaisdell wreck of, No. 2.
Despite the above causes given out
as reasons for the numerous smash
ups local Great Northern officials de-
clare that the whole blame should be
laid to the rolling mill men who man
ufacture the steel rails without re-
gard to chemical composition. ~
Because of the rapidity with which
the steel mills are turning out the
quality. Although the rails are bet
ter chemically. they are worse ply
sifally than they used to be before
the heavy demand came on which is
causing the rush. While the railroad
men dislike to make public the fiat
charge that the poor rails are the
cause Of the wrecks. they admit that
the rails are breaking oftener than
they used to.
On the other hand. the steel men
point out that the roads are operating
the trains at higher speed, that they
are running heavier trains and heav-
Ter engines. The railway men retort
that in proportion to the increase in
weight of train and engine, they are
using heavier rails and that the speed
is no greater than IT was twenty years
ago.
Rolling of the rails. or kneading
Of the steel in making the rails, pro-
duces a certain molecular change in
them that is as necessary to make
good rails as it is necessary to make
good bread.' said railroad man to-
day. Bread that is not we'll kneaded
is not good bread. Rails that are
sighted in their manufacture are not
SO good rails as they might be. An
ingot of steel is put into the mill and
is turned out in the shape Of rails,
without the touch of the human hand.
The work is done rapidly and at a
yellow heat which is not so good for
the purpose as the cherry heat. under
the old and slower method of max
ing rails. It is true that rails break
oftener now than they used to, and
that the metallurgy is better and the
physical part not SO good"

on the resubmission bill is in the roll
call on the initiative and referendum
except Burdick and McDowall. In
the list of those who supported the
initiative and referendum are the fol-
lowing democrats: Anderson of Grand
Forks, Brotnov, Casey, Connolly, Hal
lick, Hanson, Johnson of Pembina,
Norm, Parkhill, LELAND, Walker and
Wexford, every democratic member of
the house. Five of them voted for
resubmission, and can therefore be
counted as favoring both. The vote on
the initiative and referendum shows
that with two exceptions the resub-
mission vote was cast solidly for the
former measure. It also. received the
unanimous support of the democrats.
The three Barnes county represen>
tatives who voted for it-Law, Jones
and Thoreson-were no doubt inf1u-
enced by the sentiment of the people
of their districts, there having been
in operation at Valley City for several
months an initiative and referendum
club. The twenty-eight resubmission
votes, the seven democrats who had
not voted for resubmission, and the
three Barnes county votes make thir-
ty-eight of the fifty-five votes cast for
the initiative and referendum. The
other seventeen were scattered over
the state and voted because of.per-
sonal convictions or in response to
the sentiment of local conditions 1t
might be true that some of them voted
in this way to give their constituents
resubmission, when in fact, the rep
resertatives did not care to be re-
corded as voting directly for that
measure.
AS to the measure being demo-
cratic one, the following plank from
the democratic platform adopted at
the state convention of that party last
year at Minot, speaks for itself.
1t reads: We are in favor of es-
tablishing by constitutional amend
ment the initiative and referendum y

DON'T MAKE TT A ROAD.

We desire again 10 sail attention
to The matter Of a street between the
Frederick and the court house from
Adams street into Thompson street,
and to emphasize what has already
been said. that it would be very
great mistake 10 open such a street
for the use Of wagons.
Some of those gentlemen who
bought lots where the old laundry
stood say that they were purchased
with the understanding" that such a
street would be opened. We regret
this very much. but we are looking
now to the good of the county and
the convenience Of those who may
have business in the courts.
One Of the arguments for moving
the court house to where it is now
located was to Get ii Off the public
square. We can soc no great alvan-
ta"c in taking it off one public square
and putin" it on another public
square. and this street, if opened,
would run very close to the court
house and really it would be Of very
little benefit and would put The new
court house in the middle Of another
public square. TO open 4 nice walk
way. which would be bcautified with
flowers and trees, would add very
much to the appearance Of the court
house grounds, but it would be a
great mistake to make a regular wa
gon road at this place.

forcement Of contracts satisfactory,
as among white men, are efficacious
for the control of negro laborers on
the farms. The majority even of the
docile and "good" negroes are ire
sponsible. The remedy Of damages
for breach Of contract is useless to
the employer. The negro laborer, on
the other hand, would in great pro-
portion Of cases, starve, were not
supplies Of food advanced before his
work can be performed, and the con-
tract labor law of the state has forti-
fed the farmer with the sole secur-
ity that he has for such advance
mcnts. While the law has been sub
jcct to abuse, we believe that the
abuses have been exceptional, and
that the average South Carolina far
mcr who employs negro labor is just
and mcrcifu to his hired servants.
We do not attempt to predict the
results of the decree on
the Agricultural operations now in
progress. Indirectly. it will strength
rn the growing sentiment in favor. of
he abolition Of the agricultural lien
aw, and probably bring about the re-
zeal Of that statute at The next meet
