THURSDAY, DECEMBER 27.1888 The State of Nevada rolled up a total of 12,000 votes this year as the best she could do. Four counties in tljeRed Biver Valley, North Da kota, out 12,648 votes,, -therefore they have more population jihan has the entire state of Nev«df» whose .population^ is .each reafirbwiO| less.

And in'82, when everything was republican, these same virtnons statesmen refused to either divide or admit Dakota to the Union, notwithstanding memorialized by the Yankton con vention, which sent a committee of 100 leading men to Washington ask ing such rights.^ Now to make any sort of a decent state of ."Nevada, it most ., be annexed to Uian and the latter admitted,'.with tl ei polygam ous blfcbt blotted out.

The principle is the same from the Democratic standpoint,'And we call the attention of the freej trade or gans to-the important question at this early date so thati they may make no mistake when |the subject comes up for discussion ivjnd decision in Dakota. Now when the little "gim-craek'' squirt gun undertakes to draw a parallel case between the mortgage tax question and the question of tariff reform, it displays a painful want of information. On the one •-hand the mortgage tax is a thing which not only stakes money out of the poor borrower, needlessly and in an indirect way, but tends to break down the argument which mvybs turned toward compulsory low rates of interest, having no features whatever in common with the tariff reform question. What the Demo cratic party believes in is, tariff tor revenue only, which is not free trade by along shot, as it requites some •850.000,000 or8500,000,000 to 'ineet this expenditure, which, by the way, would afford ample protec tion to our infant monopolies, pro vided /laws were etaacted and en. forced crushing the spirit of foieign »nd home corporations forming .^Bjtyr&ero on the necessftries of life on Mp«rlcan soil, affording in fact the .'Vttlyp^esible protection to Ameri ll'-i'^san labor.

J, W. Harden received the iMfMt vote ever given a democrat candidate for delegate in this terri tory. He surpassed the surprising canvass made by M. H. Day, two years ago.. It is reported that. President Cleveland is anxious for the advent of the 4th of March. Who will now say that Qrovei CCleveland,jis not •bnntof thejtlmes and "en rap- Ke it" with thefgreat heartthrobs of American public—f Pioneer Press, Most anybody, by 110,000 votes it is said that Grand Forks had flfty-two saloons under local pro hibition. Now twenty, each pay ing a license of $1,000 annually. High license reduced the number of saloons thirty-two. Prohibition made a saloon wherever there was a party willing to sell. The English salt trust is said to be preparing to gain possession of all the salt works in'this country. It Mt. Cleveland's^ idea is correct, tbeiills no such thing'as trusts in Free' Trade England.—I Aberdeen New* NO one knows better than the above partizan organ that President Cleveland made no allusion to Eng lish trusts,but undertook to institute proceedings against the principles of trust domination in America. It is a well known fact that English men share in the coal and salt trusts of this country. English influences are now at work putting a so-called international copyright bill through our lower *house, having gotten it through the senate, which is to be a law purely in favor of the great English publishing houses, putting into their hands the control of the English literate of .the world. For years books have cost from four to eight times as much in England as the same books cost in America, which cheap literature has made the Americans the greatest readers on earth, hence the most intelligent and aggressive. But this condition of things is to be stopped here lies an opportunity to gouge the many for the benefit of the few by act of con gress providing that but one pub lishing house shall print a given book, thus are the greedy monopo lists to reap millions of dollars at the expense not only of the toiling book workmen of this country, but the reading public at large. Now forty houses may manufacture a given book or periodical, employing many workmen, supplying the yawning libraries of the land at low rates, whereas under the proposed monopo ly but one house would do a given book or periodical. President Cleveland in a sense of duty urged the people to stand by their rights and protect the home and home interests against design ing monopoly, and it was just such dishonest partizan organs as above, who, coupled with political preju dice lead the people another league On toward the slaughter block, against their own best interests. The fight is not that there are no monopolies in "free trade England" but rather that these monstrous evils be allowed no place on Am erican soil. The matter of taxing importations, say 9500,000,000 an nually "for revenue only/' might be sufficient home protection, provided home interests were not loaded down with monopolistic home privileges and favoritism, if you please The Perils of Public Life. We find in our current mail the following letter addressed in obvious good faith to the editor of the Cour ier-Journal, and post-marked Piper City, Illinois: "1 have read the Courier-Journal with a great deal of interest the past campaign, and, now it is over, would like to ask a question: Would you advise a young man just twenty-one years of age, of average intelligence, to study politics with a flew to making a practical business of it—say the law first and ulti VBitely a political career! Can a competence be made, honorably, in a political life Several of us young men here would like your views on this subjeet. Hoping to hear from you, allow me to remain, aaoet honored sir, V. Y. V." It is not an easy task to answer this letter. One is tempted, brus quely, to say: "If you want to go to tike devil, get. a razor and cut your throat, and travel direct, in prefer ence to taking a tedious roundabout journey through the dismal swamps of politices*." But this is not likely to satisfy the youthful seeker after truth. In a country like ours, there is no. such thing, strictly speaking as "a political career." A man may qualify himself never so well for official station,and miss it altogether. Onr public life is made up of most odds and ends, the elements of chance largely predominating over •very part of it. Our public men are the merest sports of fortune, gamblers in the lottery of ballots, speculators in the gullibility of toankind, individually dependent, tod more or less the creatures of «very wind that blows. Oar pdli is a species of eomlc opera. It -S-r A v? (), seems to young ambition a fine thing to be a great man but how would it seem is the possible, and Sometimes the actual sources of that greatness were exposed to view the mean self-seeking and abasement the sordid appliances the.dishonor ing sacrifices and cowardly surren ders the concessions here, the sub missions there the petty arts of so liciting and chicane, and the obse quious stoops to conquer, and all the deviousness, the delays, the heart burnings, the longing and suspense, the disappointments and the dirt, which so often attend the transit from obscurity to eminence. An honest, free man shudders to think of it. There is nothing more squalid and pitiful than a poor great man in pub lic station as society is now con structed in the National Capital. It may be that he has reached his posi tion on somebody else's money, and is, therefore, a slave to those who sent him. He is miserably under paid out of the public treasury, and, if his integrity be the least uncer tain, the temptation to put it in com. mission is ever present and pressing. If he satisfies his constituents, he must work like a nigger on a rock pile. If he does not, he is likely to fall by the way into the moral slums that yawn on every hand. He is every man's man when he is want ed for somethln|L|Md' no man's man when he wants ^|§pg!)£ for him self. His life hypoc rasy, for it is im|tt|ible for any one honestly to slop over as he is re quired to do on every occasion of public exoitement or private en treaty. He becomes, in spite of him self, a kind of masculine fourtesan, and, in time, sustains, himself upon system of organized selfishness, or sinks beneath a load too heavy for humane endurance. Both Clay and Webster lamented in their last days that they had ever entered public life. So did Douglas —so, if the truth could be known, do half of the men of the hour who have lived long in office at Wash ington. It may be said, truly, that they never gave it up until they are forced to. But that is because they are fit for nothing else. Politics, too, like other forms of gambling has its fascinations.

We refer to The Russell & Mor gan Printing Company's calendar, of Cincinnati, Ohio, for 1889, a copy of which is now before us. The calender consists of twelve sheets (one for each month) of coat ed board, size 12 7| inches, print ed in nine-to twelve colors and gold from engraved metal plates costing over 02,000. Each page is entirely different from the others, and all are new and original designs illus trating the origin and use of playing cards, etc. January opens with the story of the playing card—its birthplace **Midst austere walls of a convent gray," which is carried through by diffsrent representations and des criptions to the erid, December show log the "house of ciitfs,''and view of the Russel ft Morgan Printing Vy '.jf Company's building, the largest playing card factory on earth. This is-the most elaborate calen dar ever produced, and while the Russell & Morgan Company have not forgotten to work in a fair amount of advertising pertinent to their business, the calendar itself is a most practical one. The figu.res are large and plain, and on^the back of the December sheet is furnised a full commercial calendar for the years 1889 and 1890, with the con secutive figures so useful to book keepers and business men who wish to make a "note" of time. A notice printed on the face of the calendar advises us that sample capies will be mailed to any address upon receipt of twenty-five cents. Scientific Miscellany. A New Flora:—The luxuriant vegetation of Krakatoa was totally destroyed by the eruption in 1883, not a'living germ being left. Three years later the island was visited by Dr. M. Treub, who now reports having found six species of micro scopic algea, which coated the rock and seemed to have formed the soil on which eleven species had taken root. A common grass of Java was growing, and there was quite a number of such species of flowering plants as first, appear on coral islands. Seeds or fruit several coral island trees were found on the shore. Krakatoa is ten miles from the island of Sibesie, contain taining the nearest terrestial vege tation, twent^ miles from Sumatra, and twenty-one from Java. Intellectual Influence of the Nose: —Aprosexie is the name Dr. Guye, of Amsterdam, chooses for inatten tiveness, and he quite singularly finds that the nose is one cause of it. A dull boy became quick to learn after certain tumors had been removed from the nose and a man who had been troubled with vertigo and buzzing in the ears for twelve found mental work easy .after alike operation. In'a. third case, a medi cal student was similarly relieved. Dr. Guye supposes that these nasal troubles affect the brain by prevent ing the cerebral lymph from circu lating freely. Boilers Exploded by Gas:—After prolonged official investigation, the most extensive and complete de struction of steam boilers on record has been attributed to the sudden ignition of coal gas, mixed with air, that had accumulated in the flues. The explosion occurred July Waste of Energy:—In the ordi nary sixteen candle power incan descent lamp, according to Prof. E.
