SUBSCRIPTION---$6.00 PER ANNUM There is trouble now -between the village council and some of our prom- inent tax payers in regard to the building of the city hall and fire house. The council had located it on the southwest corner of block nine, Lydick’s addtion and is said to have let a contract for construct- ing the house for a sum much larger than our tax payers think is neces- sary or expedient, and yesterday a restraining order was served on the council requiring them to wait a little until the judge of the district court can examine the merits of the case. - Squabbling over such trivial matters is a poor way to build up a town and we must not expect any great degree of prosperity while we are fighting for the best chance for favored omes. If the council and the citizens cannot agree on the locality, why not refer matter to the voters, they will declde and decide rightly.—Cass Lake Times. And this is the town that wanted the state normal school. Itis very likely that if an indulgent legislature located a state normal in Cass Lake some enterprising citizen of that place would get out an injunction, restraining the 'state from erecting the buildtng, if it were not on certain streets of that town, so bitter is the sectional rivalry of the place. There are men who devote their lives to the irresistable impulse of doing others up politically, and seem to thrive at the avocation. Various motives actuate them to promote and defeat those .who get into the whirl, reaching the high mark to get a knock out blow and find themselves at the bottom with the ambition satisfied and the bars closed to fur- ther advancement. Of such, the world is filled, but the first taste of preferment was so sweet that they could not resist the tendency to climb ambitions ladder to the dizzy height of prominence and above where it is safe, therefore the fall is the greater and the more disasterous. The pinacle of fame, politically, is not so very high, but it is dangerous to achieve, and many a man has gone down carrying with him his reputa- tion and good name to a common level.—Grante Falls Tribune. Verily, this be a wicked world, eh, Bro. Putman? OBSERVATIONS. Finishing is the hardest part of a lazy man’s job. Farmers make a lot of money for grain inspectors. Men who are good whistlers are usually poor workers, It’s difficult to generate philosophy on an empty stomach. Most married men do as please—in their minds. Forbearance is one of the virtues our enemies do not posses. they Too many men spend their time sitting on the anxious seat. If a girl is happy it’s a sign that her clothes are satisfactory. And every man in a poker game hopes he will get the glad hand. A girl never likes to be kissed unless she says she doesn’t, so we’re told. A woman’s idea of extravagance isto spend money for sensible things. Some girls are like some dolls. They cry ‘mamma” every time they are squeezed.

New York, Aug. 10.—The strike ?t the telegraph operators in Chiocago is regarded by the company as loeal in 1ts naturd and not likely to precipitate a strike here. The walkout of the tel- egraphers in Chicago has hathpered the transmission of business both here and at Chicago, but wire chiefs and chiet operators are doing all they can to move the business. President Clowry and QGeneral Superintendent Brooks held a conferefice to discuss the situation. Mr. Brooks sald: “There 1s no reason why the strike in Chicago should bring about & strike in New York. The trouble in Chicago 1s local in its nature and sheuld not affect this city. Only 50 per cent of the operators in the Eastern division belong to the union and in the event of a possible strike we would be able to handle the business without delay.

D, Aug. 10,—A stroke of lightning has festored the hearing of Willlam B. Chase, who has been stone deaf for seventeen years. Chase was out in the hills when a fearful storm arose. He ran for the shelter of a tree, which he reached just as the Ughtning struck it, tearing it to pleces. The man was thrown fifty feet and when he was picked up he remarked to a dazed sort of way: “Bay, I heard that crash, all right. s I can hear anything now.” wad correct in his guess for he could hear the faintest whisper twen- ty feet away.

HIGHLY SATISFACTORY. 8howing Made by the New Battleship Connecticut. Rockland, Me., Aug. ).—In fourteen Tuns over a measured mile course out- side of the harbor the first-class bat- tleship Connecticut, the first of the class bullt by the government, made a showing which was highly satisfactory to Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans and the trial board. The average speed of the best five runs was 18.73 knots. The trial was marred by a fatal ac- cldent. L. M. Turner, a fireman of the first class, who was borrowed from the battleship Ohlo for the test, was killed by & bucket of ashes falllng on him. The bucket, which weighed about 200 pounds, fell while being hoisted from the fireroom, striking Turner on the head. He died an hour later. MURDER AND SUICIDE.

MOR French Send Two Thousand Men Ashore at Casa Blanca. AWFUL CONDITIONS PREVAI Jewlsh Quarter Mas Been Sacked, Many Persons Were Massacred In the Streets and thp City Is Said to Be Full of Dead Moors. Tangler, Aug. ~—The French war- ships have landed 2,000 additional men at Casa Blanca, where street fighting apparently continues, judging by the desultory firing heard day and night by those on board the ships an- chored off ‘the town. The Jewish quarter of Casa Blanca has been sacked. Many @r-sons were mas- sacred In the streets, the city 18 sald to be full of dead Moors and the Moorish quarter is in ruins, having been set on fire by the shells of the big guns. All stores are closed and much hunger and distress prevails among the poor. The foreign consuls have ordered the stores to be re opened and have established a specia) tariff for foodstufis, designed to mitt gate the sufferings of the poor. The Europeans, who are all safe elther on board ships or at the con: sulates, are guarded by bluejackets. The warships continue to drop an occasfonal shell into groups of Ka- byles on the beach in order to prevent them from approaching the town. Advices from Rabat say that the Kabyles have glven the governor a fortnight in which to withdraw the French control of the customs. Other- wise they say they will attack the town. The activity among the Andjerras tribesmen near Tangier 1is creating some apprehension that a surprise at- tack may be made on the city. LONG AND HEAVY TASK. France Has Undertaken Blg Job iIn Morocco. Paris, Aug. : —In spite of the firm Intention of the French government to keep within the terms of the-Alge- ciras convention in its dealings with Moroceo the French press clearly foresees that France, unless the situa- tion rapidly improves, has entered upon a long and heavy task. The newspapers express the opinion that France, upon which the chief burden In restoring security in the disturbed country will fall, will be forced to occupy in turn all the Morocean ports and then probably be compelled to un- dertake a punitlve expedition to Fez, after which it would be Impossible to withdraw, as was the case with the British In Egypt. As the British bombardment of Alexandria enhanced the prestige of Great Britain in Egypt, 80, it fs argued, the French bombard- ment of Casa Blanca will have a slm- llar_effect in Morocco. An expedition to Fez, the newspepers point out, wouid, like the British victory at Tel Et Kebir, complete the parallel. The Petit Parisien prints an inter- esting Interview with a “high person- age” at the German foreign office, who indicates that Germany recognizes the logic of the situation and Is prepared to acquiesce in France’s “Incontest- able predominance” in Morocco, pro- vided France is prepared to give a quid pro quo in the shape of the ad- mission of German government and German industrial securities into the French market. QUIET HAS BEEN RESTORED Bombardment of Casa Blanca Lasted Forty-eight Hours, Tangler, Aug. +.—A steamer which has arrived Qere from Casa Blanca re- ports that quiet has been restored there among the natives and that the BEuropeans are all well. The bombard- ment of the place by the French ¢ruis- ers lasted forty-elght hours. The na- tive quarter was much damaged. Additional French forces have -been landed at Casa Blanca: The report of the bombardment of Mazagan by the French cruiser Du Cayall is confirmed. Bombardment Destroys Town. London, Aug. ).—A special dispatch from Tangler says that the greater part of Mazagan was destroyed by the bombardment, but the consulates were not injured. "It is reported that dur- Ing the shelling of Mazagan the Moors attacked the Jewish quarter of the town and killed many persons.
