What New York doesn't get from the Democracy the south does, vide the ele vation of Senator White of Louisiana to the supreme bench. Blood will tell in the long run. Chaska, who captured a, pale face old maid for his wife several years since, has deserted her for a squaw of his own race. The Pacific roast has just experienced the severest storm it has known for years. And yet some of us have been hugging the fond delusion that where the Pacific coast was there paradise e.\ is ted. The Democratic party received an other striking object lesson in Pennsyl vania yesterday where the veteran Galusha A. Grow carried the state for congressman-at-large by nearly 150. (XX) majority. The Sioux Falls papers have been ad vertising the near appearance of the Princess Colonna, nee Mackay. in that town in search of a divorce, but a New York dispatch says the Princess has no idea of coming west. The conviction of Boss McKane means a great deal more to the cause of honest elections in this country than may at first appear. His six-year ob ject lesson in the penitentiary will have a deterring effect upon lots of similar crimes. We didn't know there were so many papers in the country taking press dis patches until the war between the As sociated and the United Press began. Not a day passes but that some journal prominent at least in its own locality, secedes from one organization to the other, and we are sure the particular association it has left is bound to go to smash until we run across an item tell ing of a change in the other direction. Judge Jenkins has been very severely criticised for his late ruling which was construed to forbid railway employes from striking, but recent events show that he builded more wisely than lots of people knew. His injunction certainly did prevent a precipitate strike, what ever its intent was, and meantime the employes and the management of the Northern Pacific company got together upon an amicable and eminently fair basis, upon which all their difficulties were adjusted. McKinley's fool friends seem bound to destroy what look now to be his brilliant chances for the presidency. Their latest suggestion is to make him a candidate for United States senator from Ohio against the doughty For aker, as if a bitterly divided party in his own state could help a man to a presidential nomination. McKinley doesn't need any movement, in his be half just now. ICvents an they shape themselves from day to day are giving him all the boom ho could possibly ask. Argus-Leader: The only serious charge brought again»t J. Adam Bede so far is lodged by R. W. Wheeloek of THE MITCHELL REPUBLICAN who says that Bede ubed to be a co-worker with him in an Ohio newspaper office. It is unmanly in Brother Wheeloek to publish this fact before Mr. Bede is confirmed. Our only object in bringing up the matter at this time was to divert atten tion from the far more damaging charge that Bede was at one time con nected with the Sioux Falls Argu.r Iveader. __________ The next valuable public lands to be thrown open in the North west are t,ha«e of the Yankton Indian reservation, sit uated in the heart of one of the most thickly settled and most productive sec tions of South Dakota. These lands will be in the Mitchell land district and all information concerning them can be found and all steps necessary to secure them must be taken in Mitch ell. Seekers for information should bear this in mind and address their in quiries to THE DAILY REPUBLICAN 1which is compiling a circular gmng the facts of the situation up to date. The Democratic party in congress, with an overwhelming majority in the lower bouse, finds it necessary to arrest sick Republicans and bring them in to secure a quorum that will answer to roll-call- Meanwhile ex-Czar Reed sits in his seat and suggests to the opposi tiou in the language of the minstrel i»hovy-bill: "You've got a quorum now —count "em." And meanwhile the vot ers of the country are just itching and aching fot' the ides of November when they will bundle this whole outfit of blundering incompetents into outer darkness. The silly and unsupported allegations that Gov. Sheldon has unlawfully dis posed of public property from off the re cently granted military reservation at Sisseton seem to beconclusivelyanswer ed by Adjutant General Silsby, whose statement we print in another column today. No one save a few hidebound partisans really took any stock in the charges whose very triviality was their best answer. Gov. Sheldon may have his faults but petty larceny is hardly one of them. Argus- Leader: Our Republican friends stoutly insisted some months ago that the factories were closing up beeuuse of anticipated tariff changes. But now that the Wilson bill has passed the house and is almost certain to get through the senate these same factor ies are re-opening. "Anticipated tar iff changes" were never so imminent as now and still the wave of prosperity is beginning to sweep the country. Tne Republicans will have to revise their facts or their arguments. When the thick-and-thin organ tells an anxious public upon what terms and conditions the factories are starting up: and when it explains how after months of non-production consumption has ex hausted the supply of manufactured goods so that a certain amount of man ufacturing is an absolute necessity, then it will be time to revise Republican facts and arguments—but not until then. l'»« World's I'alr Plioto* For *1.( These beautiful pictures are now ready for delivery in ten complete parts —sixteen pictures comprising each part —and the whole set can be secured by the payment of one dollar to any siation ticket asent of the Chicago, Milwaakee & St. Paul railway.

LONDON, Feb. 22.—Mr. Gladstone's attitude towards the house of lords in the house of commons has caused dis appointment even to high officials in the ministerial ranks, while the Radicals do not disguise the fact that they are in dignant. A cabinet council has been summoned for Friday, and some im portant movement upon the part of the government is expected. The Chronicle's editorial upon the day's debate is causing a sensation. The Unionist papers reprinted it with big headings and pretended to look upon it as a call for Mr. Gladstone to resign. The Chronicle called the debate a ludicrous fiasco, and said that it would be difficult to imagine more undignified and pointless obsequies. aws Unworthy the Occasion. Contmuiug, The Chronicle remarked that Mr. Gladstone's speech was totally unworthy of the occasion, and that it chilled his followers to the bone. The Liberal party, The Chronicle added, has a right to know where it stands. If Mr. Gladstone feels that age and infirmitives press too heavily upon him for the leadership of an uncompro mising crusade, it is for himself to say so. The Chronicle speci il house of com mons lobby reporter says that it is diffi cult to imagine a more painful perform ance. The premier's voice, he asserts, was rough and broken, and even his words came with difficulty. There was not hint, he also says, which suggested that tbe peers were not most estimable. In conclusion, The Chronicle special reporter remarks: "It was truly a ter rible sendoff for a great movement.' MORPHINE ROUTE. Sensational Suicide of a Des Moines Restaurant Proprietor and His Wife. tliey Took Morphine Twice and the Man Afterward Shot Himself—The Wife Will Die. Two Deaths Resulted From the "Fun" Which Cornell College Students Indulged In. SPRING VALLEY, Wis., Feb. 22.—The Eagle Iron company has demonstrated that low grade brown hematite can be converted into pig iron, from which the best quality of malleable and general foundry iron may be manufactured. The first cast of iron from the com pany's new furnaces in this city, was witnessed at 10:30 Wednes day morning. Amid the clanking of ponderous machinery and the shouts of a hundred voices a mass of glowing, furious metal rolled from the furnace's port out upon tbe great bed of sand and found lodgment in a hundred small troughs of sand to cool its fury. The result is a dozen tons or more of excel lent pig iron. The great interest which attaches it self to this event is the fact that in no section further west than the Hanging Rock mines of Ohio has any successful attempt been made to utilize a brown hematite of this quality of ore. S. Frank Eagle, who has had long ex perience in iron mining and manufac turing back in Pennsylvania, was the guiding spirit in opening the Spring Valley mines, and building the furnaces that have just been put into operation. The daily capacity of the plant is the treatment of 150 tons of ore. The furnace was completed a year ago but could not be operated until now, from the fact that the Wisconsin Iron and Lumber company, from which the ore and charcoal is obtained, was by the money panic forced into the hands of a receiver and is at present operated by D. B. Dewey of Chicago in that capacity. The annual output of the plant will he in the neighborhood of 25,000 tons of pig iron', or twice that many tons of ore, requiring 2,2 0.0U0 bushels of charcoal, for which 00,000 cords of wood will be consumed. There is now on hand 50,000 tons of ore, crushed, washed and sorted, ready for treatment. When all branches of the industry are in operation 500 or more workmen will find employment. MERRV CHUKCH WAR. Somewhat Sfmintinnal lev«lopment. in the Fond alu Lac Mutter. FOND DU LAC, Wis., Feb. 22.—The de velopments iii the Methodist church war are somewhat sensational. A tele gram from Bishop Joyce at Nashville, Tenn., ordered Presiding Elder Walker from the western part of the state, and Elder Walker has reached Fond dn Lac. A formal complaint was entered against the pastor of the Division Street Methodist Episcopal church, Rev. William Clark. The trouble began some time ago, when Pastor Clark de livered what was called a prohibition sermon. Presiding Elder Walker will probably suspend Mr. Clark, who is charged with false pretenses, lying, quarreling, causing dissensions, malad ministration and disseminating, false doctrines. Nine ministers will sit as a jury and the trial will begin soon. THE l'KXNSYLVAXIA ELECTION. Believed Grow Will Have a Majority of 160,000 Return* Are All In. PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 2a.—The election held in this state Tuesday to choose a successor to Congressman-at-Large Lilly, resulted in a victory for the Re publican ticket, greater than any in the history of the party in this state. When the returns are all in it is believed the plurality of Galusha A. Grow will reach nearly 160,000. When the Repub licans elected Jackson state treasurer last fall by a plurality of 135,146 it was believed that this would serve as the high water mark for years to come. Be fore election Republican leaders said they would lie satisfied if they could show up 100,000 votes to the good, while the Democratic lenders, who made an active campaign, were con& dent that the Republican plurality could be kept below 80,000. KIKE lK-VRANCE KATES. Chicago Underwriter* Doolde on a 25 Per Cent Advance. CHICAGO, Feb. 22.—The Chicago Fire Underwriters association has decided on a sweeping advance of 25 per cent in rates on mercantile risks. It is esti mated thut the premiums on the risks affected by the increase amount to $1 ,500,000. Consequently the insurance companies will put into their coffers an extra #375,000 by their action, which will be divided up among 150 companies.

JIT IMS ENTS Of FOltEIGN COURTS. Extent to Wlilch Tliey Can He Knforeed S 'oo to He Heard In Federal Courts. WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.—It is said by the legal authorities about the United States supreme court that the status of the contention between Prince and Princess Colonna may be materially affu jted by a case soon to be heard be fore the court. The differences between the prince and princess have recently attracted attention on both sides of' the Atlantic aud have been intensified by the princess' escape with her children from Ffanee to this country in spite of a decree in the French courts giving the custody of the children to the prince. The case soon to be heard in the United States is as to the extent to which the judgment of a French court can be enforced in the United States. The case involves a judgment for' about $400,000, given by the French courts against Hilton, Hughes & Co. of New York. The French judg ment is being contested on the ground that the case should have been tried in this country where the American de fendants could have received a full and fair jury hearing. It has also been urged that the Frpnch courts give no recognition to the decrees or'judgments of American courts, and that if an American wants redress in France, he mu stgo to France to get it. mficj IP Iks. fc.. us dl it p® il How It Would AfT.ct the Princeu. Should the supreme conrt sustain the French judgment, it is said that the pre cedent will be established governing the Colonna case and other international lit igation. Prince Colonna has the decree of a French court favor able to his custody of the Colonna children, but the princess has removed them from the jurisdiction of the French court. If, however, the precedent is established that foreign de crees can be certified to the courts of this country and then enforced, it would permit the French decree as to the Colonna petition to be given effect in this country. It is said that this is only one of a number of cases involving inter national domestic entanglements which would be affected by a ruling favorable to enforcing the judgments and decrees of foreign courts.
