EVOLUTION OF M'KENZiE, YARNS ABOUT A LEADING CITIZEN OF BISMARCK. DOW HE DRIFTED WESTWARD Hired Out With a Spiking Crew and Drifted Out to the East Bank of tlio Missouri — The Four Hundred of Bismarck 'Then Composed of llailroad Contractors and Storekeepers. Special Correspondence of the Globe. Washington. Jan. 19.— The writer met, on Pennsylvania avenue a day or two ago, a man who during the last fif teen years has grown to be one of the celebrities in the Northwest." • Alex McKenzie is six feet and an inch tall, weighs 230 pounds and corresponds in power with his physical proportions. Often, by a singula! paradox, the men who are best known through their works are the least known in fact by their immediate neighbors and associ ates. This is largely the case with Alexander McKenzie. The writer will proceed to introduce to the Northwest ern readers of the Gi.ons a gentleman whose evolution has thus far been pro duced by the Northwest. He is not a "finished product" by any means, in deed, under the McKinley law he might have been subject to taxation under the bead of "raw material" twenty-four years ago, when be first lauded at Du luth from a Canadian coaster, which picked him up on a Kanuck farm, and hustled him out into our wild and woolly West in search of fame and fort une. He is still seeking busily for the latter. The Globe inserts this chapter in the interest of the former. They were just commencing to lay track from Thompson westward on the Northern Pacific railroad. Alex (a green boy of eighteen years, but robust) hired out with a spiking crew, and followed the fortunes of the great enterprise until it touched the eastern bank ot the Missouri river. His muscle anil his experience had pro moted him to the position of foreman of the track-laying crew several months before the last rail was laid which united Bismarck with St. Paul and civ ilization. When the road was finally put in operation to the Missouri, Bis marck was denying its first boom. The new I vv 1 was as destitute of law as a pine forest in a cyclone— as uncon scious of order as chaos itself. The leading citizens were saloonkeepers and gamblers. The four hundred was com posed of railroad contractors and sup ply storekeepers. The cremede lacreme of society were the keepers of houses of questionable (or unquestionable) resort. The town was constructed of basswood logs and canvas. - After every known statute had been ♦ontmuously violated and overridden with perfect impunity for months it was determined to organize society, and in the shakedown Alex McKenzie found himself vested with the powers, duties, responsibilities and emoluments ot high sheriff of Burleigh county. His courage and muscle placed him in that position— his inherent powers of physi cal and moral leadership held him there for twelve years. Whatever order or other form of righteousness there after prevailed on the Missouri slope in the vicinity of Bismarck was due to the strength, the finesse, the muscle, the wisdom, the firmness and the popu larity of Alex McKenzie. He handled the turbulent and lawless yeomanry of the frontier with a hand of iron gloved with velvet. He was one of the few men the writer has known" who could make a muscular tough his lifelong friend by knocking him down. One incident will illustrate Lis meth ods: A burly deck hand on a steam boat just down from Fort Benton land ed at Bismarck and proceeded to get drunk. Then he "cleaned out" two or three dance houses, laid out a police officer, sent a deputy sheriff to the hospital, and going back to the boat seized an ax ami defied arrest. Sheriff McKenzie took out a warrant and proceeded to take him in charge. The boat was connected with the- shore by a twenty-five-foot gang plank. Alex stood on shore and "joshed" his man, who was still drunk and defiant, stand ing guard with his ax on the boat to prevent tin- officer going on hoard. The smooth and Kindly sentences of friend ship expressed by Alex would have melted a heart of adamant. He tamed this wild mart from Bitter Creek with the cooings of a dove. His love for him surpassed that of Damon for Pythias. lie pleaded ' for him to come ashore to his friend and leave his deadly ax behind. The Orphean harp of the sheriff finally wooed the mad man back to the paths of sanity and peace. He consented to come ashore, but insisted on bringing his ax along for protection. Alex conceded the point. Only come ashore, and all should be forgiven. Holding the ax defiantly above his head the bruiser started cautiously along the gang plank". Just as he reached the middle Alex stooped down, clutched the plank with both hands, turned it edgewise, and launched the' man into twenty feet of water, with the current running as swiftly as that just above the falls of Niagara. Then there was a general rush to save the man from drowning. This was no easy matter. He drifted under the boat, and finally rose to the surface, puffing like a porpoise. lie could swim, and struck out manfully for the shore. A rope was thrown to him, and. half-dead from his cold bath, he was pulled in— duly sober, and quiet asa lamb. He submitted to be handcuffed, and was soon safely de posited in the cooler. After three or four days, when he was sober, remorse ful and repentant, Alex took up a col lection, paid his fine, gave him a new suit of clothes and sent him off down the river. Alex had no enemies at Bismarck. Priests am! preachers, gamblers and toughs— all swore by the sheriff. The jail was of loirs, fastened by a hasp and ktieunifew^.. ■; Lumbago/ 3cSa'dca s ECsdnoy Complaints .^ Lame Back, &c St. SAISErS electric selt With Electro-Magnetic SUSPENSORY: Latest Patents!

If the crime was venal and the criminal poor, he ' always managed to escape— nobody knew how — and' v then the sheriff would swear harder than the army in Flanders. But he was never known to discharge a turnkey who had lost a prisoner. There came a time when tho capi tal of Dakota territory was to be removed froln . Yankton. Alex was a member of the legislative third house which got through the bill providing for a commission. He sang the song of Pierre- to "_ Gov. Ordway; whispered ••Huron-,? :i "Mitchell," "Fargo," •Jamestown;; and "Grand Forks" to the contending elements— but never mentioned Bismarck. The hand of the leader was raised with /a "S-h-h-h!" and no Bismarck .man dared to breathe until Alex gave ' tie signal, j Then all shouted at once. A" special train was secured. The; commission visited every town having j capital pretensions. They ate and drank and listened to the soughing of the sweet winds of eloquence— and still traveled. Finally they went to Bis- 1 marck. Alex spoke," the Bis markinns shouted, the commission ac cepted the offer, the capital was fixed at MeKenzie's town. One in dignant howl of universal protest went up all over Dakota. The. train sped : leisurely along tow Yankton, where the final act of affixing the commis- : sion's signatures was provided by law to be performed. At Sioux City a telegram was handed McKenzie. It notified him that the court had granted an injunction forbid ding the signing of the agreement until inquiry into methods and practices could be made. A close examination into his acts was just what the Bis marck man did not want. He went forward and had a pri vate interview with the en gineer, the called the conductor into his counsels— told nobody else. When the train reached the depot at Yankton it did not stop. Guards had been stationed on all the platforms with instructions that nobody should be al lowed to get on or off the train. As the engine slowly dragged the train through the city, the commissioners were busy affixing their names to the precious doc ument. When all was finished, the train, never having stopped at Yankton, dashed out of that unfortunate city, carrying vvith it the capital ofthe territory, and sped onward towards Bismarck. j; : [ii. Then the second boom came to that town. Real estate went galiv anting into the clouds. Thousands of dollars were invested in lots platted on the blank prairie miles from business. Alex was in his glory. He opened a real estate office and rolled iv opulence. Wealth came to him without the asking. He was monarch of all he surveyed, and no enterprise was complete that did not have his indorsement. -: ■ Then the bubble bursted. Business grew dull. There was no sale for prop erty. Something had to be done. The election of 188S put the Repub lican party of the nation in power, and ■ the Republican .. party was com mitted to. the. admission of tvvo states— North and South Dakota. In preparing the constitution of North Dakota tnere was an unaccountable omission, It contained no provision against the legal establishment of a state lottery. After the boom ot statehood came— then the lottery scheme was sprung. Mr. McKenzie was still to the' fore. There was no scheme for "business" that did not own this leader for its sponsor. Alex had a safe majority for the bill. That was all arranged beforehand, but the governor kicked and vetoed the measure. The president ot the United States protested. The senators in con gress did not approve the measure, though they were the creation of Mc- Kenzie. The lottery scheme foil through. But two United States senators fell very much farther than Alex and his lottery. They have both retired to pri vate life— one of them from the state forever. Business was dull and money scarce. Alex went down to New York two or three years ago and opened ud business iv Wall street. He still holds his resi dence in Bismarck, but does business in New YorK. "Is be rich?" I don't know. He is made of the material that absorbs riches in America. There have been Alex ander McKenzies in Scotch history ever since that canny people began to have a history. This cue is keeping up the record of his clan. "Is he rich?" What does it matter? He lives rich. He has lands and ranches in the Dakotas. mines in Montana, timber lauds and townsites in Washington. He plays vvith bonds, and stocks, and mortgages and poker chips with equal courage, courtesy and felicity. LiKe his low countrymen, the Covenanters of old, he believes that the earth and the fullness thereof belongs to the people of God, and who ever heard of a Scotchman who failed to be lieve that the Scotch worn God's owu people. -.";;.".';. -rv ;-A "ls he a man of character?" ; Yes, of strong character— a leader, born to the royal purple of guiding, "steering" and directing his fellows. Without eariv educational advantages, he numbers, among his followers and aids graduates from all the great colleges of America. If there were a great war today in which this country were involved he" would be the leader ofan army corps if he failed to become commander-in-chief. He is true to his friends, loyal to his cause, steadfast in his "attachments— without examining too closely into the abstract morality of either friends, causes or attachments. "You can't make men over," he says. "Thev'must be as God chooses to make them." Then take them as they are— use them, help them if they love you, hurt them if they hate you, teach them by kindness if you can— by the rod if you must. You have to live vvith them. You cannot escape from their society it you would, until death comes. Be brave, and kind, and generous, and faithful — never mind conscience. That will take care of itself. Human energy is for use. Put the steam be hind the machine and make it move. The Divinity that placed us here will care for results. Get a move on you. A man asleep is a man in the way." Such is his philosophy. Not the high est, possibly, but it is a practical phil osophy bom of our pushing aud aggres sive life in the Northwest. Alex is forty-two years old. His schemes are limitless in number, mag nificent iv scope, intricate in detail. He is ceaselessly planning new worlds to conquer as he enjoys the en forced rest of hard times. What they are he never tells.. He plans, looks for the means, and then proceeds to the execution. His talent partakes of the unexpected ness of the cyclone, the concentrated purpose of the blizzard. He is never "downed." He does not pause to bury dead plans, but allows others to at tend to post-mortem ceremonies while he ongiuates another scheme, and looks for agents fitted to bring it to fruition. Daring, coolness, prudence, energy -these are his characteristics. Where will Alexander McKenzie strike next? I do not know, but where he does strike something will ba heard to fall. All who know him will agree to this. • - ■ "Please don't trouble yourself to tell the Gloijk that 1 am here," was his re quest to the writer, and this is my re spouse. Frank J. Mead.

Opening Was Higher, in Harmony With London— Unusually Fa vorable Bank Statement, Show ing a Surplus of Eighty Million More lhan Held Last Year — Some Handsome Advances. CHICAGO, Jan. 20.— Fear ot a cold wave, which is in close pursuit of the present rain, catching it and the water caked wheat before Monday, helped sustain wheat today in the face of an expected increase in the visible supply. The price at the close was *$'c higher than it left oil yesterday. Corn is %c higher, and provisions are 13>fo up for pork, 7 l ic for laid and 5c tor ribs. The wheat market partly get its strength from the larger exports from both coasts than the trade had expected. The ex ports were over 1.000,000 bu more than the week previous, lt is expected that the visible supply, will show au increase on Monday. of about 259.000 bu. Trade was slow and narrow, but local shorts showed some disposition to cover. May sold early at (54% c. fell to 04% c. up to 64% c, off to (it'ie and closed at 01% c. lv corn there was a moderate specula tive trade, though the market was in no way active, the price covering but %c range. A firm feeling prevailed, aud slight gains were scored on all deliver ies. Offerings were not very free even at the advance, while the demand im proved considerably, several of the larger concerns having good-sized buy ing orders. The better tone was attrib uted to a great extent to the small movement, together with strong cash market. The market opened at yester day's closing prices and worked up %<_, ruled firm, and closed with %c gain. In oats the buying by shorts was good and the offerings not very heavy. Tne feeling was strong and prices advanced }{c and held firm at the highest point. May sold from 29? cto 30^c. The ad vance was due to light receipts and the firm tone of the corn market. Receipts of live hogs at the yards were fully one-third less than the esti mates; as a result, the speculative mar ket for provisions opened higher all around. The volume of trading was, however, extremely light. In mess pork the market was a very narrow one, the range for the day beiug within 7%c. Just before the tap of the bell prices ad vanced to the opening figures of the day, with the closing 12>£c higher than at the same time yesterday.

The Post says: The better feeling encouraged by the government loan's immediate and remarkable" success chiefly controlled the stock market again today. In the first half-hour, de spite the unresponsiveness of London, prices advanced rapidly.and, though the movement subsequently met a check from realizing sales, the net gains of the day made- are considerable. This returning cheerfulness found further matter in the weekly trade statement. Such sketches, though they show at present nothing sensational, do at least agree in proving that the darkest hour of after-panic stagnation is already past. .. -'--- The Total Sales of Stocks \ today were 129.900 shares, including: Atchison, 2,800; American Sugar.l6.4oo; Burlington & Quincy, 8,300; Chicago Gas, 7,100; .
