MORRIS.
LOCAL NOTES.
It really look's as though Morris
would celebrate at Villard this year.
H. F. Peters and Wm. Wunscli are
not behind
others iu the matter of
good sidewalks.
Lewis Chrlstopherson and Anna
Larson were married in Morris on
June 10th, by Rev. J. P. Hutchinson.
At the raffle for a lot in Graceville,
last Friday night, ticket number 154
was the lucky one aud D. J. Burke
was the holder.
AVatson & Leonard's flock of 215
sheep were sheared last week by H.
Ellsworth, in three and one-half days.
Ellsworth is quite an expert.
A fishing party made up of A. S.
Brisbtue, John Anderson, J. M.
Thompson und Ben Johnson brought
a fine lot offish into town yesterday
morning.
Last week Mrs. Coyle lost a pocket
book containing about $25 in cash and
some valuable papers. The finder
will be liberally rewarded by return
ing the same to this office.
The delinquent tax lists for the year
1882 have been completed by Auditor
Heenan and turned over to the Clerk
of the Court Baldwin who is making
the printer's copy. The list is about
the same as last year.
A special train, composed of a Man
itoba special car and a special car
front the C. B. & Q. road passed
through town for "Winnipeg Tuesday.
A. Manvel, general manager of the
Manitoba road, was one of the party
on board.
The Stevens county Old Settler'sas
sociation meets at L. L. Hegland's
grove to-morrow. Ample preparations
have been made for refreshments, and
everything that is needed for the en
joyment of the old pioneers. A good
time is expected.
Twenty-twocarloadsofcattle passed
through town Monday night, owned
by A. X. Johnson & Co., of Benson,
which were being shipped to their im
mense cattle ranch near Miles City.
Both A. N. Johnson and H. W. Stone
are now in Miles City giving the
ranch their personal attention.
A car load of buggies and light
spring wagons was received by C. H.
Allyn last week. They are going rap
idly, which fact indicates a good pros
perous condition of things in general.
When farmers begin laying aside their
farm wagons and using buggies for
light road work one hears but little
about hard times among them.
Much of valuable trade, naturally
tributary to this place, now goes to
Hancock and Herman because roads
leading to Morris are often in such a
deplorable condition. Business men
of Morris cannot afford this state ot
things. The loss is too serious. The
county and town officers are doing a
commendable work in improving the
highways, but if they do complete
needed work the work should be fin
ished by private subscription. Roads
should be put in excellent condition
anyway.
The musical society temporarily or
ganized by the Leslie Concert Com
pany promises to become a permanant
and useful musical society. A com
mittee has been appointed to draft a
constitution and by laws and prepare
the way for a permanent organization.
Meetings will be held regularly every
week A competent leader has al
ready been chosen and instruction
and practice in vocal music will be
continued. The result can not but be
beneficial. The next meeting of the
society will be in the school house on
Friday evening.
The programme which the base b§ll
club last week expected to carry out
on the Fourth of July has been
changed and instead of playing at
Little Falls, they will play at Villard.
The club is now in constant practice
and will probably do some fine play
ing. As both the Morris base ball club
and the Morris silver cornet band will
go to Villard on the Fourth, a large
company of excursionists from here
will beyond doubt go to the same
place from here. Conductor Hall of
the L. F. & D. should be well supplied
with extra coaches for the day.
Last Saturday afternoon the pupils
in the Catholic Parochial schools, in
'.harg* of Rev. F. Watry and the Sis
ter*, their teaches, enjoyed a picnic
in WuuchV, grove south of town. The
wfm pleasant and the place one of

taken. The officers in the towns in
terested should take immediate action,
make the required appropriations,and
thus secure the aid of the county in
improving their highways. The coun
ty commissioners have done their
parf, now let towtr officers do theirs.
A. T. Smith, D. D. S., of Minneap
olis, arrived Monday night to remain
for a week or ten days. Dr. Smith is
one of the most experienced dentists
of Minneapolis, and now has an ex
tensive practice. His visit to Morris
is more for recreation than
anything else, but he has brought his
chair and dental instruments, and will
do any needed work in Morris during
his stay here. Dr. Hulburd and oth
ers who are acquainted with him,
recommend him as being an unusually
skillful dentist, and those who are in
need of dental work will do well to
avail themselves of this opportunity.
It may be to the advantage of all
concerned to learn that the Chinese
Laundry, originally located on Atlan
tic avenue, has been removed to the
office of E. Dowers. A handsomely
painted sign on which appears the
mystic characters "Luoug Lung,Chi
nese Laundry," appeared yesterday
morning on the aforesaid office. The
appearance of this sign would indicate
that a co-partnership had been formed.
We will endeavor to learn more about
this laundry sign at the wood and coal
office and give further partieulers in
our next.
Later.—We understand that Mr.
Dowers being dissatisfied with the
way business has opened has taken
down the sign.
County Convention.
The Republican county convention
for the nomination of delegates to the
state convention was held at the court
house last Saturday afternoon. The
convention was temporarily organ
ized by the election of C. L. Brown,
chairman, aud E. W. Randall secre
tary. The committee on credentials
consisting of J. D. Good, C. W. Coni
stock and J. C. O'Brien, found the fol
lowing to be entitled to seats in the
convention.
J. D. Good, H. Hutchins, E. W.
Randall, O. C. Hanson, C. L. Brown,
Samuel Larson, E. J. Jones and A. A.
Stone of the village of Morris Anton
Anderson, A. Satter, S. Anderson

Hancock Chris Gorder, Thos. Gol
den aud F. A. Wellington of Scott F.
G.Smith and George Borrill of Rends
ville Wm. O'Brien and J. C.O'Brien
of Stevens.
As numerous towns were not repre
sented a motion was made and carried
authorizing gentlemen who happened
to be present to cast the vote to which
the towns are entitled. This motion
admitted to the convention H. W.
Stone and W. L. Colyer of Darnen
L. H. Pushor and Wm. Burrill of
Morris, and A. Millen of Swan Lake.
Upon motion of H. W. Stone the
temporary organization was made
permanent.
Samuel Larson of the village of
Morris, and K. C. Helgerson of the
village of Hancock were elected by
ballot to be the delegates to the state
convention.
a
resolution was passed to the effect
that the Republicans of Stevens coun
ty are not in favor of either Gilman or
Rice for lieutenant governor.
A motion was made for the chair to
appoint a county committee of five
but was lost, after which the conven
tion adjourned. The convention was
not as harmonious as could have been
wished and the result widens the
breach in the Republican ranks of
Stevens county, instead of closing it
as it might have done.
Is it Lack of Enterprise 1
The Morris Brass Band are very
much dissatisfied with the treatment
they are receiving from the people of
the Village. They have purchased
new instruments, have hired an in
structor and in other ways expended
money and have given much of their
time to make themselves proficient
By hard work they have gained the
reputation of being the best band in
the northwest and reflect great credit
upon the place. In return for all this
the town gives them nothing. In no
way does it show its appreciation.
No wonder the members of the band
are disgusted. No wonder that they
have concluded to discharge their in
structor and disband after the Fourth
of July is over and their engagement
for that day met Of course the band
can not afford to maintain an organi
zation and continue to spend their
time and money unless the town will
give them a chance to earn at least
enough to pay their instructor.
While we do not blame the band for
resolving to disband, we believe there
is more of appreciation on the part of
people of the town for their labor than
has been shown. If some energetic
person will "do" the town with a
subscription paper we believe business
men and others will subscribe liberally
enough to pay for a series of Saturday
evening concerts and tfous enable the
band to pay expenses. If the people
of Morris will raise a purse for the
band the organization will be contin
ued and the entire town be benefitted
by their music. If however they do
not show their appreciation in some
pecuniary way the Morris Silver Cor
net Band will soon be a thing of the
past. Good people what are you go
ing to do
Has not Morris enough of enterprise
to support a brass band

Dryden & Stephens during the short
time they have been in Morris have
already demonstrated the fact that
they are possessed of commendable
amount of energy and that they mean
business from the word go. They have
had the bakery running for a week
and have already worked up quite a
business. A good supply of fine bread
cakes and in fact of everything to be
found in a first class bakery they have
on hand and all orders given will be
promptly and satisfactorily filled.
They have purchased a horse and
buggy and deliver goods freee of
charge. Their new bread box was
finished yesterday and is now in use,
enabling them to deliver eatables in
the best possible condition. We are
glad to note the activity of the new
firm. Give them a call.
At the Congregational church last
Sunday evening a large audience lis
tened to an interesting sermon by
Rev. J. P. Hutchinson. "Go For
ward" was the leading thought in the
discourse. The sermon was closed
with the following lines written for
the occasion:
GO FORWAKD.
Go forward with a lighter heart
For all the sorrows you have known
Arid look, amid life's varied part,
To God alone.
Go forward with a trusting mind,
In paths you do not understand
If, in the wilderness, you find
He helps your hand.
Go forward on the unknown sea
In truer faith, in deeper love,
Knowing that naught unknown can be
To Him above.
Go forward then,—God's love within
Giving you peace, making you blest
Go forward—feeling naught but sin
And leave the rest.

THE CLOUD OVER DANIEL WEB
STER'S FAME.
On the 7th of March, 1850, Webster
delivered in the Senate of the United
States a speech (on the relations of
slavery to the Union) the effect of which
upon his own chances of fame has been,
up to the present moment, in the high
est degree unfavorable. That speech
turned against the orator nearly the
whole force of the particular literary
mode then rapidly gaining the ascendant
in this country. The time since then lias
been an era of sentimentalism in liter
ature, as it has been an era of sentiment
alism in politics and religion. Webster
has been judged according to the fashion
of such an era. There will succeed a
different era, having different canons of
judgment, and Webster will be judged
differently. The pendulum already com
mences its return toward the opposite
extreme of oscillation. ThiB, however,
is anticipation, and we now deal with
retrospect. The tide of political opin
ion, held for a time from ebbing by the
almost sole contrary attraction of Web
ster's own" example and influence while
he yet lived, receded with precipitate
rapidity after his death, and left the
great bulk of his name, it well might
seem, a wreck on the strand. The re
action against Webster in popular re
gard resulting from this celebrated
speech found powerful and beautiful
expression in one of Mr. Wlxittier's
finest poems, a piece significantly en
titled "Ichabod 1" Since then, in a
published poem on Webster, Mr. Whit
tier-lias evinced some disposition to un
write his earlier branding lyrio of dis
praise. W. a. Wilhimo*, *i tfte

The city itself, compact and solid,
"with a liue of domes and steeples black
ened with time, roofs of substantial red
tiles, plentiful balconies, and bits of
wall tinted blue, green and pink, is like
a little Venice. A large crane hangs
out from the end of an iron pier, and the
fancy hooks on to it at once—the ter
minus of the English railway which is to
bear us away up the extraordinary slopes
from the hot lands—the tierras calicn'
tes—to the mysterious interior and the
capital.
In an existence of going on 400 years,
Vera Cruz has arrived at a population of
17,000. The interior view of the place
dot s cot belie the promise of the first
glimpse. The churches are of irregular,
picturesque shapes, with nice bells. The
principal one, in a little shaded plaza,
has a dome of colored mosaic tiles, which
shine in the sun—a style we shall nee
plenty of farther on. The principal
shops have a well-furnished air, espe
cially in the branches of groceries and
heavy hardware, and the Custom Houbo
square is stuffed to repletion with cotton
bales, railroad iron and miscellaneous
goods waiting transportation. The prin
cipal street is called De La Indepen
dencia, and leads to a short concrete
promenade bordered with stone benches
and palm trees. It is early discovered
that the Mexican is very patriotic. He
names his streets after his battles, as
particularly the Cinco de Mayo, fought
at Puebla against the French, and even
has a way of joining the names of his
heroes to those of cities. Thus Puebla
is Puebla de Zaragoza, commandant im
the same great battle of the 5th of May,
and Oaxaca is Oaxaca of (President(
Juarez.
Grass grows in the joints of the stones
in the minor streets, and open gutters
run in the center. One might be in
some such Italian city as Mantua. The
zopiloted, of which travelers have writ
tin, sit on long, straight waterspouts
projecting from the houses. They are
large, raven black, dignified, and, aloft
there, against the deep-blue sky, have
an appearance of carved architectural
ornaments. There are street-cleaning
di p:u tinents elsewhere which are far less
ornamental, at any rate. Notices of a
bull fight for the coming Sunday are
posted on the dead walls. A tram car
of a peculiar pattern runs out to the
open fields, where there is a dancing
place and ball ground. There is a view,
in passing, of the cemetery, which
should
be a leading institution at Vera Cruz
and yet, when one is on the ground, as
is apt to be the case, there are mitiga
tions to be found even of yellow fever.
Pall bearers in gloomy weeds are natu
rally expected to form a considerable
part of the population, just as murderers
and kidnappers of all sorts are expected
to abound elsewhere. But an American
resident assured me that in four years
he had known but one of our country
men to die of the vomito, as it is called,
and very few to have it. Its chief havoc
is among the poor and badly nourished.
The American Consul, himself a physi
cian, and a resident of twelve years'
standing, is strenuous in his views as to
the harm done to the commercial inter
ests of both countries by ignorance and
misrepresentations on the subject. It
is certain that the local authorities do
not regard the disease as contagious,
putting those afflicted side by side with
surgical patients in the hospital from
which it seems that if the case were re
ally looked into there may be as little
need of the annoying quarantine against
yellow fever, at least of this variety, as
if it
were

T.HE PAT OF OLIVER CROMWELL.
When Oliver Cromwell was asked, itt
1649, to accept the post of Commander
in-Chief and Lieutenant General of Ire
land, he replied that he would go if he
wore "sufficiently provided." The fol
lowing fact$ frora the calendar of state
papers will show the pecuniary value of
the demand, which was granted "He
required in addition to the ordinary sal
ary of a Lieutenant General of Ireland
$15,000 for an outfit, $50 a day so long
as he remained in England, and $40,
000 a year upon his landing in Ireland.
Unfortunately the patent does not state
what salary he actually received as Lord
Lieutenant of Ireland, but oniy
mentions that he should have the
usual fees, stipends and allowances, Wb.
judging from other details, it must have
been at least $25,000, and, if so, his
total income was $65,000 a year, wliiclx,

money then, would have given hiii

VARIATIONS Or THE HUMAN BODY.
The human body is longer on rising
in the morning than at any other time
during the day. The reason is that the
muscles are relaxed, and the pressure,
incident to a sleeping posture, helps to
Bpread them out. There is a considera
ble decrease in height from long stand
ing. Our shop girls are thus stunted
and partially deformed from being on
their feet all day—a cruel and savage
outrage. The squat forms of many for
eigners come from being learned, while
too young, to stand on chairs, and thua
walk while the muscles are tender. The
mothers do this that they may work in
the fields or at home without hindrance.
Prof. Martel, a foreign savant, tells how
the French peasants escape conscription.
They refrain from going to bed for two
or three nights, walk much with bags of
sand on their shoulders, and diminish
their height so as t© be under the regu
lation limit. The effect, of course, ia
bad for their health, but better that
than be butchered.

delicately but plainly "invited the ac
cused to give a satisfactory explanation
of his change of name during tlio
Franco-German war of 1870-71, and to
deny for the honor of the French army
the accusation of having broken his pa
role." Gen. Thibaudiii, thus run to
earth, had no alternative but to ascend
the tribune and explain that, during the
last few months of the war, he had
fought under the name of Comagni.
Repeated interruptions, and even
threats, did not disconcert M. de Cas
sagnac from playfully pursuing the un
palatable subject, and the General's
l.i i e attempt to show that he had
merely added his mother's name to his
own, and that a French military court
of inquiry had fully exonerated him
from
all blame, completely broke down
in
of
the official statement of
the (i erinan authorities. In his excel
lent work on Bismarck, during the war,
Bivdi states, dating Feb. 10, 1871:
"Tlie Chancellor wishes to have printed
in the MoitUe.ur the long list of French
oi'iicers who have broken their parole
and escaped from Germany. I send it
on, and you will find that, beside three
v. el -known Generals, there are 142
am--s, including Col. Thibaudiii of the
Sniy-seveiith regiment of the line, two
Li. iitenant Colonels, three Majors and
tlii. tv Captains."
M. le Gen. Thibaudin has no author
ity whatever for stating that the French
court of impiiiy decided that his con
duct was blameless in serving after he
h.ul given his word of honor not do so.

was answered by them to save
his reputation. At length his dishon
orable flight, could be no longer con
cealed, and on Dee. 19, 1870, the Prus
i mi 7 i lister of War inserted in Militar
Wreheublatt the name of Col. Thibaud
iii a! a defaulter for his pledged word
as
a soldier and he was consequently
tried in his contumacy, and condemned
to death in his absence. As "Henry
C-'Diagni" he easily found command of
KOiu-' of Gambetta's new levies, and by
command of the war ministry of the
time was promoted to the rank of Gen
eral under that name. Gen. "Comag
ni," alias Thibaudin, did not quite es
cape censure, for his case was con
sidered so serious that, by a military
decree of Nov. 23,1871, he was placed on
compulsory retraite, where he remained
iu obscurity in Algeria till reinstated as
Colonel in the Thirty-second regiment
of the line.
