 tie attention to gold dust, and do not pretend to understand the op- erations of the Russian on Van Carmah river. He thinks therefore that the natives arc correct, and that the Russian has struck an- other 'Klondike. His return will be watched for carefully, and if his find is correct it will not un- liekly cause another stampede such as occurred under the aegis of the Northeastern Siberia Go. to Anadir bay, and which turned out so disastrously for nearly all concerned, in spite of the elegant banquet given to and the local eloquence wasted on the governor by Nome concrssionaries. Mad son encountered little ice on the return trip.

 have and those who have not, and the lucky or rich ones are taking advantage of their greater fortune to secure all the whale bone which the poorer Eskimos cannot afford to hold. In this way some have acquired a consider able amount for a mere song, and if the bone should rise in prices they will be miniature million aires.
 Capt. Madison also arrived from a long trading trip to North Cape, Siberia's most northerly point. His is the first craft which has been there in a long time, and he deserves the big cargo of furs, bone and viory which he brought down with him. The Hattie B. was there at the same time, and they passed other steamers while anchored there. These were the ice breaker Kit now a whaIer and two Russian government ice breakers of heavy tonnage on an expedition to the Lena river. These vessels are we'll adapted to the purpose and although the ice fields were heavy it made no ap- preciable difference to them.
 After parting from East Cape going north, Madison with his schooner Wasp encountered very heavy ice, and while pressing for ward he punched a hole in the schooner. It was a similar ram- ming which caused the YOrkey to sink on her first trip this year, but such fate did not Overtakc the Wasp as she was promptly handled, and beyond a wclting to a couple of boxes of bread and bags of sugar, owing to the fact that some tents and canvas were close by the hole, the water en- tered very slowly. and the damage was repaired temporarily before much harm was done.
 But here iS he real story of the trip. On inc trip last year the Wasp took up a Russian to Van Carmar river and he took a pan and went up prospecting. He new or told whether he found anything or not when he returned, but this year he sought Madison out and went up with an outfit. This in- cludcd hose, canvas, sluicc boxes, rifles and the other necessary tools for mining.
 On this trip Madison learned from natives that Garman is do- ing great deal of work" and him grt plenty yellow sand"-'all

THE
SOOT1EnN REPUBLICAN,
SCANDAL.

The president is like the high-mind
ed president Of a public service cor
poration who wants his general man
ager or counsel to get results in
council and legislature, but is unwil,
ling to hear anything about the
necessary means.
We do not hear Of any refusal OF
the president to permit Southern
delegates to the Republican nationaI
convention to vote for him, but he is
taking great pains to pass on the
other side Of all unpleasant details
involved In arranging for this support
Of his candidacy.
The Republican party In the South
is a permanent scandal. II has no
following. since its Negroes have been
disfranchised and its whites ostra-
cised, and only leaders enough to I'LL
the federal and organization offices.

Independence IN VOTING.
The Political Situation az Viewed BY
Lawyer James L. Curtis.

The Political Situation az Viewed BY
Lawyer James L. Curtis.
In twenty-five states of the Union,
where the blight of constitutional
amendments has neither eliminated
nor rendered negligible the Negro vote
e27 electoral votes hang in the balance
to preponderate according to the way
the Negro casts his ballot. says Attor'
ney James L. Curtis Of New York.
Suppose it be conceded that In the
dawn of Negro citizenship the race
found itself obligated to the Republic
an party for rights conferred In the
shape Of the fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments to the federal constitu'
ton and thereafter resentfully SOUGHT
: to avenge itself on the Democ, Sfit
party for its attitude in opposition tc
the comforting Of these rights.
Is there any reason on this account
why the Negro should further be In
fuenced by rights granted fifty years
ago. when 1t is apparent that they
were conferred not as result Of the
unselish pursuit of right and justice
by its sponsors, but as political ex'
pedient to perpetuate itself In power
and that the other party that opposed
the comforting Of those rights. con
versely, did so not az the result of g
malevolent pursuit Of wrong and In
justice. but as a political expedient to
gain the reins of power?
In every crisis Of the nation In which
the Negro has been called upon to par
ticipate he has always allied himself
on the side seeking the greatest good
to the greatest number and on the side
demanding equal rights for all and
special privileges for none" This cam
paign Is fight Of the masses against
special privilege" as typified in the
exponents Of the high protet tive tarin
advocated by both the Republican and
Progressive parties.
The Negro in this crisis will stand. ~
he has always stood. with the masses
as against the classes, with equal
rights for all as against special privi.
leges for some. There Ia abundant evi'
dence at hand from every section OF
the country that the Negro has an ade
quate appreciation Of the function Of
the ballot.
1t is therefore a safe conclusion that
he will not use his ballot in this cam.
paign to any appreciable extent in re-
sponse to the thrills Of sentiment. but
with grim visage and serious nlien will
employ this boon Of citizenship. as the
result Of sober thought and calm req
son. to the benefit Of his home and am.
fly. to the credit Of his race and to the
glory Of his country and his dag.

lis Lethai odor Has the Effect of
Powerful Narcotic.
The death orchid Of the Venezuelan
Indians has been proved to be no mere
campfire yarn.
Years ago an orchid hunter. Gray
son, set out to find ''El Lugar de los
Flores Venemosos" is, ''the place
of the poisonous flowers which was
said to be located in the dense and
painless wilderness occupying the vast
stretches between the headWaters OF
the Orinoco and the Andes. Two
weeks passed without any incident out
of the ordinary. But one morning
there was ii perceptible smell of flow
ers in the air When the orchid hunter
and his Indians camped that night the
Jungle smells had been entirely lost In
the cloying scent. Many Of the band
refused to go farther.
AS Grayson and the others proceed
ed the ranllly sweet and oppressive
/ odor became stronger. attacking the
senses like narcotic. One after an
other the remaining Indians collapsed
| till only Grayson and the guide were
| left. pushing onward. The orchid
hunter felt as if he was being attacked
/ by the insidious power of opium. but
retained enough consciousness to be-
come aware that. cleaning through the
trees ahead. he saw flowers OF huge
size and vivid colors. many hued clus-
ters of them hanging in trails.
1t was the death orchid!
When he recovered his senses nc
found himself being carried back to
camp, where the rest of his porters
had remained Many of the band
were severely sick and many half wit
ted with the continued effect OF the
scent. Suburban Life

Land & Loan Co. Have
Good Display.

The real estate men OF Harlow
ton are wide awake and have good
displays of grain and vegetables.
If you take the time to visit either
the Urner, Lynn s. Dunn, or the
Kelly Land 81 Investment Co.'S
Offices, you will be surprised at
their fine displays. The following
remarks we're made by outside Wis
itors, when they had examined
them:
A r1lau from Iowa, in town d few
days ago, Oh seeing the display OF
farm products in Urner, Lynn &
Dunn's office said: You have
products herc that would be a
a credit of any country, and | don't
believe my S175 land in Iowa will
grow any better, in fact, ! don't
see how amy better stuff can be
raised any place on any land. I'm
surprised that you have such land
around here at the price it can be
bought" @ ..
Another man from Missouri
he really lives there, but is willing
4 to be shown, said: I can sell my
land south Of Kansas City for $125
per acre and am going back to dc
1 it and you can expect to see me
!. out this way
I An Illinois man said: Thirty
years ago | paid $50 per acre fol
the farm | just sold, its worth
!, about 5000 per acre now, but The
quarter section just about made
me fair living, and if | charged
myself interest on my investmen
it would have kept me going tt
have come out even. Now from
the proceeds of this farm | can bu,
six times as much land here and
| have no reason to think that eacl
/ acre will not make as much none,
as each acre of my Illinois farm
did"
A Wisconsin man after spending
| three weeks looking around il
1 various parts Of eastern Montan
l left his money here for a ranc
saying he knew of no better plac
| to put it. Yes, we have fine coul
| try, and we appreciate it.
