There are so many attractive fea tures to be noted in a journey along the Upper Mississippi by a traveler wiio i.s fortunate enough to be carried in luxury on the elegant trains of "The Burlington," that one cannot mention half of them in a paragraph. It is, however, surprising to mark the number of small rivers that empty into the great stream, all swift, spark ling and clear. From the high bluffs at East Dubuque to St. Paul, there is a constant succession of these streams, many of wiiich are well-used gate ways for the logging industry.

R., Browns Valley Tribune: Chief Gabriel Renville of the Sisseton tribe arrived in the valley from Washing ton on Mondaj* evening, and went to the Agency on Tuesday. He talked very freely regarding the matter of opening the Sisseton reservation and said that the bill to ratify the treaty for such opening would surely pass. The bill provides that the Sisseton and Wahpeton Indians shall receive $360,000 back annuities, and in addi tion thereto, the scouts who assisted the whites in the outbreak of '62 shall deceive $58,000 for their service. The chief also stated that these annuities would bo paid in cash, and not shoe packs and salt pork as had been the custom. He spoke very highly of Gen. Whittlesey and Mr. Maxwell, of the commission, and A. S. Crossfield, all of whom he claims did all in their power for the best interest of the In dians. The Chief, by the way, strongly denies the charge brought against himself and Sam Brown to the effect that they paid $5 each for dinner at a restaurant in Washington and alludes to same as "one of Cross field's jokes."

So the evolutionist says. Old Emperor William recognized that Bismarck was the brains of his empire, and so never meddled with affairs of state. Emperor Frederick was ill and dying, and unable to assert his will, if he possessed one, and so Bismarck had it all his own way then. But young Emperor William has not only a will of his own, but thinks he even has brains of his own. There fore he and Bismarck do not get on. At last the Iron Chancellor has found a will before which he must bow and retire for the first time in his autocratic career. With his view of things it must seem to him now that the German empire, which it was the work of his life to build up, is going to ruin under his eyes. This thought will follow him in his retire ment and sadden infinitely his last days. After all, perhaps, there are more dura ble materials than blood and iron with which to build a nation. The young ^German emperor may find that his labor conference is loaded before he is done with it. Jf You Have CONSUMPTION Gmm OB GOLD BRONCHITIS I "SCROFULA Your Farms.

Green, of Michigan, has written an interesting book on the "Nature, Causes and Treatment of Crime," taking the ground that crime is a disease, a moral disease. Its cure should be to confine the criminal as a dangerous animal or lunatic and then work for the awakening of his moral consciousness, a process very slow, but the only sure one. Among the causes of crime Judge Green puts heredity first. But that is only shoving back the difficulty. There must have been somebody who went •wrong first, to start the thing. What made him go wrong—that first man? An enthusiastic believer in the theory of evolution, on the other hand, says the cause of crime is simply undevelop ment. As soon as a man's intellectual, moral and spiritual faculties are suffi ciently developed to realize that it is better for himself personally to be hon est, to do no murder, and that the con sequences are more agreeable when he stays sober than when he gets drunk, that he is happier and more prosperous when he is at peace with his neighbor than when he is quarreling, then and not till then will he reform.

In 1880 the popula tion of the stato wns 780,778. The gain from 1880 to 1885 was 837,02"), or 481li per cent. If the same ratio of gain ih made during the period of Ave years from 1885 to WOO, the population of th atatc will be found on June 1st next to be l,ODO,- 8:. The population of the Fiflh congrcs sional district of Minnesota in 1885, by the same authority, was 2:24,930 In 1880 its population was 117,889. Tin gain in the live years from 1830 to 18BI- was therefore 106,031, or .8i)U per cent showing that the population of the Fifth district increased during that period more than twice as fast as the popula tion of the whole state. If the increasi has been as great during the past livi years as during the five years from 188i to 1885 the population of the Fifth dis trict is now, 425,224 or more than one fourth of the population of the entire state. The population of the First congres sional district in 1885 was 168,403. In 18S0 its population was 168,112. The gain in live years was only 351 persons. The per cent, of gain may be expressed thus .00208. If the same rate of in crease has been maintained during the past live years the district has gained 250 in her population and it will count up now 168,713. The population of the Fifth district is two and one half times as great. Tho population of the Second con gressional district in 188d was 193,128. In 1880 it was 166,468, showing a gain in five years of 26,660, or .16 per cent. If the same rate of increase has been main tained during the past fire years the population of the Second district is now 221,328, or a little more than half as many as that of the Fifth district. The population of the Third congres sional district in 1885 was 175,583. In 1880 it was 155,091. The gain in five years was therefore 20,492, or .182 per cent. If the same rate of increase has been maintained during the past fire years its population is now 198,760, or materially less than one half that of the Fifth district. The population of the Fourth congres sional district in 1885, was 353,332. In 1880 it was 169,294, which shows a gain in that period of 184,038 or 108| per cent. If the same rate of increase has been maintained during the past five years the population of the Fourth dis trict is now 737,580. We have taken the statistics of popu lation by counties from the Legislative Manual of 1889 and added them together to ascertain the population of each con gressional district. It will be observed that the aggregates of population reck oned by districts will show a variation from the total census of the state thus: First congressional district.

We are unable to say where the dis crepancy lies. It may be in errors of printing in the manual or in our figur ing. There is another discrepancy which we are unable to account for at this writing namely: The rate of increase for the entire state in the period from 1880 to 1885 was .4316, which if main tained would produce a population of 1,600,239 in 1890. The rates of increase for the several congressional districts as we have figured them out, when applied to the population of 1885 in each con gressional district separately and ag gregated would produce a much larger population in tho entire state than 1,600 239. Those fond of figures are welcome to work it out. We have been to the trouble to figure out the results stated above in order to point a moral and adorn a tale," which we shall attach to the latter end of this effort. Before doing so let us remark upon the probabilities whether the gain in tho past five years in the several dis tricts is as much or as little as we have estimated. As to the Fifth district. It is well that the immigration into ARE THE the western and northern counties of that district has been steady during all the time. Duluth has grown rapidly. The mining regions on the east side have added many thousands to their population. There has been a steady growth in all the cities and villages throughout the district, and we think ,, the inprpnsp liaq PVPPPHPH that nf thai Notice is given that the following tne increase lias exceeaea tnai oi me five years between 1880 and 188o, rather than fallen off therefrom. And what will support the argument and demand which is below made even in a more forcible manner, is the probability that the next two or three years there pit'l be a still more rapid increase by the rush of immigrants into the opened In dian reservations and in the regions to be traversed by new lines of road now under construction and to be con structed. In the First district, which barely held its population from 1880 to 1885, there has been no cause to accelerate the increase of population, and as many have emigrated therefrom to the Fifth district and to North and South Dakota and the Pacific coast, the probabilities are that the census soon to be taken will reveal a falling off intead of an increaso in the First district. The same reason ing applies to the sccond and Third dis tricts. The increase in the Fourth district is due to the enormous growth of the cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul. It is probable, we think, that the rate of increase shown between 1880 and 1885, lias not been maintained in the last five years. Sometime ago the News hinted that the Fifth district should ascertain its political rights in the way of represen tation in the public service, and prepare to demand its just share and make the demand good. This suggestion was mot with an ill concealed sneer and derision in some quarters, and elicited the alle gation that the district had already her share of the offices. It is not so. Of the elective offices on the state roster wa have the attorney general and the clerk of the supreme court, and thede were forced from tho convention of 1886. The time has now come for making larger demands. A district which com prises a territory of nearly one half of the state that has a population of closo on to half a million that is almost doub* ling its population every five years, and is developing its material resources in the most rapid manner, is entitled to a more potent voice in the state councils and in congress than it has heretofore enjoyed. It seems to us that the Fifth district is entitled to demand, not arro gantly, but courteously and firmly as a matter of right, the governorship of the state for the next term, or if it is deemed best to give Governor Merriam another term, then in that case, the lieutenant governoFahip and the U. S. senatorship first to fall vacant. Senator Davis is a good senator, an able and learned man and all that, but St. Paul and Minne apolis shou'I not be allowed any longer to appropriate all the great and influ ential offices They are entitled to much and we will concede them much, but not in sacrifice of our own just claims. If one of the senatorships is to be wrested from the Twin cities, there is no portion of the state that can mako so good a claim upon it as the Fifth dis trict, and there is just as good material in that district out of which to makf senators as can be found elsewhere.
