PRINCETON, MINN., JAN. 16,1896. CONGRESSMAN TOWNE has intro duced a bill for $75,000 public building for St. Cloud. JOHN BULL'S star of trade is still in ascendency while only a faint twinkle of Uncle Sam's can be seen. "DISCIPLES of Discontent" is the ap propriate appellation the Pioneer Press has affixed to the Populists. J. B. FORAKER was elected to the United State senate yesterday by the Ohio legislature over Calvin S. Brice. OLD PEA SE is happy again. A. R. McGill has made his bi-ennial appear ance in the political ring' as a candi date for governor.- FOREIGN societies have been notified that they are barred from carrying re lief to suffering Armenians. It is high time the haughty Turk was relieved of his head. DULUTH Commonwealth: Suppose the government lets the banks do the wor rying over the gold reserve once. It won't be any more teasing' for business than this way. THROUGH one of Hoke Smith's nu merous bad breaks the government loses the Pipestone Indian reservation. Yet Grover keeps his incompetent of ficial in power. RIGHT on top of the hospital %ht comes a scrap among the Democrats for the Anoka postoffice. Misfortunes never come singly and our neighbor has our hearty sympathy. DAVENPORT News: The Republicans can always be depended upon to come to the rescue of the government when Democratic incomptency places it in an embarrasing situation. SECRETARY EASTMAN, of the Fourth Insane Hospital commission, is again a free man. The contempt proceed ings were dismissed Saturday and Anoka breathes easy again. THIS week the war writers tell of the passing of the olive branch between Uncle Sam and John Bull.' This is much more poetic than the talk of bristling bayonets and shimmering steel. ACCORDING to reports from Tower the Great Northern has secured 5,000 acres of coal lands in the northern part of the State. If there is coal so near our iron deposits just watch Duluth grow. ST. CLOUD is now working under a curfew ordinance. Whatever business one has with Hon. J. J. Boobar, J. G. McKelvey, R. B. Brower or any of the St. Cloud boys must be transacted be fore dark. HE Duluth Commonwealth presents the best typographical appearance of any daily in this State. Its pages are printed from type set by machine and is a pleasing contrast to the so-called beauties of the linotype. Ex-Gov. MARSHALL has passed over to the silent majority, his funeral oc curring at St. Paul this afternoojn' consider onlny three murder cases this term. The death rate still remains low even if the editors of the Grand Rapids Herald and Magnet are wearing shooting irons in their hip pockets. two pages per week. If Anoka loses WRIGHT county is enjoying a very warm fight over the office of clerk of the district court. O'Leary's term has expired and Vorse has been appointed his successor, but the present incum bent declines to vacate until ordered to do by the supreme court. Mean while he draws thJ salary. Mr. Marshall was one of the pioneers jitet the same bright paper as of yore, of the North Star State and has done In the time of such a trial the people of Herman should not be backward in ITASCA county's districTcourt will MINNEAPOLIS newspaper men are in an amusing tangle caused by some re cent circulation talk.

It is an able argument in favor of an in creased revenue.' EDITOR HENDERSON got out a very creditable edition of the Verndale Sun last week. If there is not a rush of immigration to that section it will be through no fault of his he has thor oughly' advertised the commending qualities of that locality. JAMESON'S fiasco in Transvaal is now said to have been caused by the "wicked" interference of Yankee col onists. Isn't it about time Britons learned to steer clear of any place where ingenious natives of the "West ern hemisphere are ap to bveVinter ested? u"'-"::':'.::t ONE would imagine if he read the endearing terms which the Aitkin Ag$ applies to the editor of the UNION that an ass was a most despicable creature./ Yet a perusal of that, sheet shows him to be one of-the dyed-in-wool exponents of' the doctrines taught by Balaam Cleveland and his long-eared fratern ity. MINNEAPOLIS Tribune: The United States government's credit is still good enough to borrow money on, notwith standing the deficiency in its revenue. The sustaining force of the public credit is the hope and expectation of a better business management by and by, when the Republican party gets into power. DULUTH'S grand jury has found in dictments against two of the water works officials. The engineer is charged with perjury and the manager with manslaughter in the second de gree. A death caused by typhoid con tracted by drinking the impure water furnished by the company is the basis of the latter charge. HE armor furnished by Carnegie for some of our building cruisers has been found to be defective. We may congratulate ourselves that the war cloud which has hung over us for a time shows signs of breaking and rione of our Yankee ^ars' will be drowned because of the steal this bold Scotch man contemplated. MARY YELLIN' LEASE and Ignatius Donnelly have been spellbinding the Reubens at Minneapolis this week. They are never so happy as when de tailing the imaginary as well as real woes of the farmers and some of the calamity songs sung are pitched in so high a key that even the average Pop ulist can't join the chorus. SIBYL WILBUR? the erstwhile news paper woman of Minneapolis, suc ceeded in getting "pinched" in Wash ington by feigning drunkenness, and has been writing her experiences for the Washington Times. It is now in order for the court to punish her for contempt and thus furnish another subject for her willing pen. SISTER JACOBS, of the Herman En terpj-ise, lost her office by fire last week, but the Enterprise came out on time la tni that institution now it will not be be- kota will have a nice thing handling cause of a lack of energy displayed by the patronage of that State, for at present he is the only prominent man in that commonwealth who has ex- HON. J. J. FURLONG withdrew from pressed such a preference the field and J. E. Cooley, of Duluth, was, elected president of the State Agricultural society Tuesday. Mr. Furlong has made an able and efficient officer and his retirement will be gen erally regretted. *T & ^bstantial evidence of SENATOR HANSBROUGH, of North Dakota5|has appeared in the role Of an senator plum the senator Nortsecure Da HE Granite Falls Tribune takes a fall out of the opponents of Tarns Bixby in the following neat and em phatic manner: "A few country papers are demanding the official head of Tarns Bixby because he is alleged'to be 'an acute politician.',/ In the name of the departed ancestors of Thomas Jefferson, who would these newspapers suggest to fill his place? One who is not a' politiciana backwoodsman or a flamdoodle book agent? The party made no error when it named Tarns as president of the State committee. "SfJ, Those state commissioners "who are trying to promote uniform legislation among the various states of the Union ought to be encouraged. At present a man. may be lawfully divorced in one state and a married man or a bigamist in another. In one state he may be a fully qualified voter, in another he is arrested for violation of election laws if he attempts to cast his ballot. A man maybe guilty of crime in one state when he could do the same thing in an other one and go scot free. It has been suggested as a remedy for thifrthat the national government take up the matter and'enact legislation of general applica tion, as it has already done in case of postal, bankruptcy and other laws. But then would certainly rise the cry of cen tralization from the state rights advo-* cates, and there would be reason in the cry. It is better for the separate states to move in the matter and make uniform laws of their own accord. The divorce laws are perhaps those that need the most thorough overhauling. Distressing complications frequently arise here in cases where the property rights and the rights of children are involved. The put upon dweller in the suburban Tillage will send forth a hearty prayer of thanksgiving to Mr. Thomas Cald well of Newburg, N. Y. Mr. Caldwell is an inventor, and what his latest achievement is may be gathered from the .question which started the idea to working in his brain. It was this, and it was put to him by his 19-year-oidson, "Why don't you take a lawn mower and attach it to the front of a bicycle instead of the front wheel?" The idea ('took." The result is the cycle mower, which is warranted to make the mowing of the front yard just fun. The boys will cry for it All the man who mows has to do is to just pedal. The front of the thing is an ordinary lawn mower the back is the hind wheel of a bicycle. It begins to look as if the World's fair business was being run into the ground. With the show in Mexico open a whole year in 1896, and the great fin de siecle exposition in Paris in 1900, saying nothing of several small ones that inter vene, people may well become weary of the same features over again. It is al most impossible to find anything new now. The League of American Wheelmen have financiered so successfully that their organization is out of debt,1 A few more victories for the Cuban patriots before the assembling of .con gress, and the United States ^il| ^cer tainly feel called on, to recognize the re public of "Cuba Libre." SPENCER BROOK ITEMS. SPENCER BROOK, Jan. 14,1896. Walker Bros, shipped a car load of cattle and hogs Monday. Jake Loucker, the bean thresher, left this country for parts unknown Saturday morning. George and S. P. Babb started for Foreston Tuesday morning where they intend to haul cordwood. Lund & Erickson left with a smallin crew, Monday, morning, for the South Fork of Ground House where they will haul logs for McDermott. Mrs. Zatterstrom, mother of John Zatterstrom, died very suddenly the latter part of last week. The funeral was held at J. F. Zatterstroms Sunday. The party at G. W. Patten's Friday night, was largely attended and all seemed to have a pleasant time, the evening being spent in dancing, and playing games. KID. MILLE LACSLAKE RIPPLES, VINELAND, Jan. 10, 1896. R. Sweedburg lost one of his hdrses last week. A slight flurry of snow fell Sunday but not enbugh to help sleighing. Harry Hardy spent a few days last week visiting friends in Brainerd. H. Hardy bought him a new horse and buggy while in Brainerd last week. _- Miss Martha Johnson left Saturday to attend the spring term of school at Milaca. Gotlieb Shoultz left Saturday for Brainerd where he intends remaining this winter. A dance is to be given at Joe Felinshe's Saturday night. A pleasant time is anticipated by all. '^-J, Mrs. John Evans left for Marshall last week to spend the winter with her parents who reside at that place. Mr. Gray has almost finished his cut ting thereby letting eight men out of employment the first of the week. A cold wave struck Vineland last week, the thermometer registering 32 degrees below for two days. We are thankful to say it only lasted two days and we are now enjoying our usual pleasant weather once more. Mr. Stewart, of Minneapolis, who has been visiting his brother, A. Stewart, for the past three weeks, in tends returning home next week. Mr. Stewart is highly delighted with the ask1 lake and its surrounding Scenery and thinks Vineland is to be the coming summer resort of Minnesota. While crossing the lake near, Spring Brook last Saturday, Chas. Rogers had the misfortune to get one of his horses in the water, but after patient working for about two hours they succeeded in getting the horse out.-*Mr. Rogers drove him as fast as possible for four miles and then gave him a thorough rubbing and he is now looking as good as ever.
