Sentinel Butte Man
May Lose $4,000

A. M. Knight of the firm of Col
lis & Knight of Fargo, has disap-
peared and many are the con- &c
lures as to the cause of his disap-
pearance. He left for New York
about the 5th of the month with
500, 100000 or more, worth of rail
road stocks that he was to sell, and
$25, 200 worth of which belonged
to w. c. Coils a we'll known stock
man and farmer southeast of Senti-
mel Butte, who is a brother-in-law
of Mr.. Knight. Mr.. Coils was in
town yesterday from the ranch and
stated to the Republican that he had
implicit confidence in Mr.. Knight
and did not believe that he had
gone wrong or skipped with the
funds although he could not help
being worried by the reports that
are being circulated. Certain it is
that Mr.. Knight has not been heard
from for nearly two weeks and the
fact that he carried so large an
amount of valuable securities with
him has led to the belief that he
has either absconded or become sud
denly insane or drugged in New
York.
Today's Fargo Forum says that
Mr.. Knight had a large circle of
friends in that city and they are
greatly divided as to his guilt or
innocence. Many assert the belief
that he has been the victim of an
accident or foul play. An applica-
tion was made to the states attor-
ney for a warrant but as the appli-
cants refused to sign the complaint
no warrant was issued Rep.

plexion of a State Legislature. AS
Senator Percy points out, the Missis-
sippi Legislature finds no manner of
fault with his record in the Senate and
failed to comply with his demand that
it investigate the charges of corruption
made concerning his election. The
sole reason for asking his resignation
is that the present Legislature is
controlled by the Vardaman faction to
which Senator Percy is opposed. Few
Senators would ever serve out their
terms in office if subjected to such
shifting winds of political opinion and
personal favoritism and the wise pro-
vision of the Federal Constitution that
they have long terms in office would
be defeated
The Mississippi practice of nomi-
mating and electing United States
Senators several years before their
terms in office begin is illogical and
pernicious. The choice of a Senator
should be made by the people and the
Legislature Immediately preceding the
beginning of his term All of this
unseemly dispute between Senator
Percy and the State Legislature would
have been avoided if that irrational
practice did not obtain.-Nashville

AN ESSAY ON LOVE.

Pure love is beautiful thing
Lies brightest, most radiant dream
And the sweetest songs that we sing
Are full of the hearts dearest theme.
'Tis gift once given no claim
Can restore it to our hearts again
But our wish and our souls greatest
aim
Is to kindle in another the flame.
For we hope and desire a return
From those for whom our hearts
yearn
For the heart is but an empty urn
If it receives no love in return.
But listen to word of warning
For tits soul love of which I am
singing
The Siren of Passion is charming
And many to her alter are clinging.
Her life is impetuous and fierce
And burns with a hot breathed
fame
Which is frequently drowned in tears
And then we awaken again.
! Oh, let us try each other to know
And see if our relation is true
True love is a thing that will glow
Like the stars in Heavens bright
blue.
For when passing has lost its hue
And the ashes are scattered and
gone
The souls pure flame shines true
And as bright as the MONDAY sun.
And by it great lives are wrought
: And for it great deeds are done
And thro it our hearts are brought
To beat in union as one.

SENATOR PERCY.

In 1878 the Mississippi Legislature
directed L. Q. c. Lamar, then United
States Senator from that state, to
vote for the bill providing for the
coinage Of silver dollars, subsequently
known as the Bland-Allison law, or to
resign his office. Mr.. Lamar ignored
both demands. At the end of his
term he was reelected and probably
could have held the place as long as
he lived had he desired to do so. He
became member of Mr.. Cleveland's
cabinet in 1884, and was later made
justice of the Supreme Court. Missis-
sippi has enshrined him among her
departed great men, and his name Is
one Of those the orators of the state
use when they would coniure popular
favor.
Senator John Shorp Williams re-
Gently took occasion to remind the
Mississippi Legislature of the Lamar
incident. The Legislature instruct
ed" Senator Williams to place before
the Federal Senate the resolutions the
Legislature adopted in vindication of
former Gov. Vardaman of charges
made against him concerning alleged
official delinquency. Senator Williams
presented the resolutions, but in
formed the Legislature in a letter ad-
dressed to the President of the State
Senate that he did not recognize its
right to instruct him. Rather than
have his action misconstrued, he did
what was desired, constituting it as a
request.
Now Senator Percy, with the spirit
and fire worthy of true Hotspur, de
clines to comply with the legislature
demand that he resign his office ant
has also addressed a letter to thai
body. 1t is a caustic epistle express
ing his opinion of the Mississippi sol
ons in terms that they will hardly
relish.

made against Senator Percy followinl
