TnE celebrated Cleveland weather has
played out in the south, the president
having found it raining very hard on
several occasions.
Ocn brother over the way is endeavor
ing to make the people believe that he
lias, for some time, been a Van Wyck re
publican, instead of a moss-back demo
crat, judging from the amount of hog
wash he has been dealing out to the ex
senator.
Brotiieu Sherman seems disposed to
grumble because his democratic brethren
do not put up more liberally. The
man at our elbow suggests, that
probably the democrtic campaign funds
are being used to better advantage, (ie)
by buying up mugwump (?) papers.
A TniRD term for W. C. Showalter,
who held the office of district, clerk for
eight years, is a 4rcry proper thing; but a
third term for J. C. Eikenbary, who has
held the office of sheriff for four years,
is a very, very bad thing. Sample page
oSJierman's conshtenry.
Rrotuer Sherman says the country
wants free lumber, but it does not want
free whiskey. It looks like some folks
who try to run democratic newspapers
did not know a democratic doctrine
when they saw it. The demand for free
whiskey has always been a democratic
war try, find to-day the bulk of thckm-
ocratic party are insisting upon it.
Just so ceitain as the democratic party
adopts a tariff-for-revenue-only platform,
just so certain will the party go down to
defeat. Agusta (Ua.) Chronical Dem.
This sort of talk docs the country
good to hear. Lut it would be more im
pressive than it is now if the talkers
would, ho to speak, occasionally crystal
lize some of their talk into acts. A year
ago the Georgia democrats nominated
ten "revenue-only" candidates for the
lower branch of congress, and if the pro
tectionist newspapers of that party made
any serious attempts to send it "down to
defeat" on that account, tho country lias
not heard of the circumstance. (Jlvle
Democrat.
We have noticed of late, in several
democratic newspapers a great deal of
complaint about hard times, which has
been charged up against a protective
tariff. Although we have a democratic
president and have had a democratic con
gress for eight years; yet, it seems we :ire
having hard times, a thing that was not
expected, if any creature had been given
to the promises of the democratic orators,
four years ago. We opine, however,
that by the time the four years trial
trip of the democracy has closed, the
people will be only too ready and will
ing to change back to republicanism and
prosperity, which have always went hand
in hand.
Pan Elixtuic Garland, President
Cleveland's choice in all the democratic
ranks for attorney general, and a man
that, had he been a republican and been
guilty of the same offenses that he has
been guilty of as a democrat, would
have been kicked out of office long ago,
is now having . a little row with secretary
of state, Bayard. It is to be hoped that
the speculative mind ofjMr. Garland may
be turned in other directions. While Jlr.
Cleveland may need him very badly, it is
very clear to us, that the people are in
safer hands with some other scion on the

The republicans of Cass county owe it
to themselves, as rcpublcan?, and as
good citizens, to support the republican
ticket from top to bottom. The idea of
scratching off u republican and electing
a democrat only strengthens the demo
cratic party. The successful democrat
in office becomes apart of the d3nioeratic
machine that is used to defeat your best
candidates at yournext election. Every
time you elect a democratic officer you
place a club in the hands of an enemy
that is likely, at any time, to be used
against you. Let us take a lesson from
the past and for once elect a straight
ticket in a county that is republican by
four hundred majority.
New Motive Power.
Yankton Press and Dokotian: Wher
ever the artesian system can be utalized
for mechanical purpose as successfully
as it lias been at lankton, it is superior
to the natural gas system of any country.
The force is nature's free gift. There is
no destruction of appliances required to
bring this force under subjection, as is
inevitable in the combustion of natural
gas, which can only be utilized as fuel
for steam-producing purposes. There is
no danger to individuals, communities or
property in the use of artesan power'
while in the employment of natural gas.
life and property is held in continual
jeopardy. An artesian well and an iron
turbine wheel will outlive the generations
of earth, while a plant for the production
of steam-power from burning gas yields
rapidly to the intense heat evolved, and
must be replaced many times during one
generation. For economy, utility and
simplicity there is no motive force equal
to that of the artesian well, which flows
on forever, unaffected by drouth and
flood or any natural or artificial causes.
It is always there, and a turn of the valve
puts the wheels of manufacture in motion
or causes them to halt. The longer we
contemplate this simple force in nature
and its application to mechanical pur
poses the more firmly fixed is the convic
tion that it is destined to become an im
portant factor in the future of this section
or the west. Yankton gave to Dakota
its first artesian well an experment and
a success, which has proved a boon to
scores of thriving communities, lank
ton gives to Dakota the first experiment
in the utilization of artesian power for
manufacturing jmrposes and it also is
a success.
Procrastination.
Time once gone can never be re
called." is the remark only too often
said by those who neglect themselves.

To have pointcl out to you "tbo most popu
lar American author," und then not to recog
nize him either in tho flesh or by nny jicr
traits you have seen, is n trifle surprising if
you bud previously thought 'ou knew tho
faces ami figures of all the American author
you ever hcunl of. Tho man who ivm jKjint-
cl out stood on a corner near tbo city hall of
of Brooklyn, apparently waiting for that
carriage which tiiy poorest of us keeps a
horso car. He v. as a short man of medium
build, dres::ed in a suit of bluo sergo, wearing
a fashionable whit straw hat, tilted a little
over tho ear, and carrying a enno. Ho looked
rather like 11 shre wd commission merchant or
grain broker than like an inspired ward of
literature.
"Whyro Ho wells never was heard of," said
mv friend, "whore tho fame of Longfellow
has not 3-ct re:i'.i:ed and where Robert Louis
Stevenson is us if unborn, that famous author
is admired, if not reverenced, llo makes
?1.",000 a year by Lis writings."
Vexed at m3r ignorance and with my cu
riositv keenly whetted, I inquired his numo
only to learn that it was Ilarlund I. llalsey,
a name I never had heard in my life. The
wholo truth was grudgingly delivered by my
informant, who at length freed his mind in
this wise:
llalsey is the writer who signs tho nom de
plume "Old Sleuth" in one of the popular
weeklies. Fifteen years ago he wrote a serial
story called "Old Sleuth, the Detective," mid
it achieved a sucee-s bo great thut afterward
h adooted the name of tho hero for his own
lien nanio, and ever since he has boon reeling
out stories, alwaj's about "Uld Sleuth," until
lie has now written something like 200 vol-imiei-Jof
this literature. Wide as is his circle of
fumo he desires to widen it by tho production
of more ambitious literature, and to that end,
or as an approach to it, has just finished u
temperance tale.
How strange tins all is! o have never
read of llalsey in tiio magazino articles upon
"the literary movement in New York," have
not soon his portrait in similar articles upon
the spirit J of the .Authors club. let he is
tho leading writer for a paper that boasts of
ijOjOOO circulation and four times that num
ber of readers 1.230,000 a week. It seems
piite likely that, as my informant suid, "his
books arc to be found in the cabs of the loco
motives, ia tiie garrets of the sowing girls, in
the kitchen 3 of t'.io land, and the factory
hands of the average New England mill town
would rather see. Liui than Bismarck or Ten
nyson." And $15,000 a year! That is almost $300 a
veok. Why, I may bo unloosing a secret,
but it is none tho loss a fact that the prince
of our novelist, William D. Howells, is paid
orly $10,000 a year by Harper & Bros., and
L"j is considered fortunate to get that sum,
though in ordor to do so ho had to surrender
all chance o" earning extra money by means of
a contract in which he agrees to give all Lis
gifted creations to that llrm. And Rev. Ed
ward P. Roe, polled favorite of the middle
kus of novel consumers, the man who is
fupposed to press one of his metaphorical
heels on the neck of tho reading community,
does not earn a penny moro than 10,000 a
year and did not more than begin to mako
that much until his publishers triad the ex
pariment of printing "Barriers Burned Away"
in twenty cent form in a limited edition of
100,000 volumes. I say "limited" because
they destroyed the plates when that number
was printed, to foivo tho public to buy 1 ho
higher priced edition of old (at $1 a book, I
believe) in case is wanted moro after the
twenty cent bocks were sold. This was fol
lowed by the same experiments with "Ho Fell
in Love With His Wife." Both succeeded
perfectly, and now Dominie Roe makes 10,
000 a j-ear.
AVho else does as well as that with his pen ?
Editor Stoue of the old Journal of Connnerco
of this city draws exactly that sum for his
.alary, but then ho controls the paper and
pays himself, and he is nofra novelist. What
novelist makes it? Mr. Mayo W. Hazeltine,
Amos J. Cuiumiiigs, Col. Cockerill and
George Alfred Townsend are credited with
jariihig 10,0vjJ a year, which is also the
salary of more than one of the metropolitan
?dilors-in-chief. Tbjs is money made with
the pen or with the management of tho pens
of others, but it is not by novel writing, and
it is not 613,000. Brander Matthews and
Henry C. Bunncr, the editor of Buck and
author of several entertaining books, are
credited with $7,000 or $7,500. Both could
make more if they were not too conscientious
and better satisfied to live easily and ploas
antly. The newest claimant for popular
favor among novel readers, Mr. Ilenrj Har
Iand, the young lawyer and ex-attache of the
surrogate's court, who writes under the name
of "Sidney Luska," has not yet pushed his
income up to the 5,000 mark, but he is very
young yet not more than SO and he is only
making his first bows and stooping for tho
first bouquets shot from the thick of his ap
plauders. I have not mastered the socret of Mr. Hal
sey's story telling, unless it bo that there is
an adveuture in every 1,000 words, an arrest,
a shooting scrape, a surprise or a ruso. But
the st-le is easy to analyze. It is that of the
repeating rifle, bang, biuig, bang, as fast as
you can pull tho trigger, with pauses for re
loading at tha end of each short chapter. It
might bo called the Gatling gun mode of
writing.
It is a sign of the times and a good omen
for the country that in this author's works
there is no word or suggestion, plot or thtmc,
that could stir an unholy appetite or bring a
bliioh to a pare woman's face. It is not so
much a sign of the times that this author is
no Bohemian, but a solid, practical man of
affairs, of family end of high repute. Syl
vnnus Cobb, Jr., lately departed, was oil of
this, and he was the king of popular writers,
just as Mr. llalsey is now. Cobb never earned
more than $100 a week, but he lived in tho
country, where such a sum goes a great way.
His home w; a pleasant cottage, and ho
drove a horse that Mr. Bonner gave him. Ho
lived well, though modestly, and neither in
his life nor works offered a wrong example.
