August 23d. 180i. t Prof. Totten , who prophesies the end of the world in the near future , Las probably just heard that an ex- Confederate colonel is running for Congress in Kansas. The correspondence between Secretary J. "W" . Foster and the Canadian authorities relative to She retaliation matter shows that TV& still have a secretary of state -that knows his business. The dispatches announce the death of George "William Curtis at Ms home on Stateu Island , "Wed nesday morning , at the age of 68 years. He had not yet reached -tne- time of life when nature ordi- raarily places the seal of decay upon - * -on the physical or mental faculties , -vsnd under the usual conditions varhich regulate the tenure of human existence , he might have been per- aaitted to enjoy nearly an additional decade of useful activity. But as it was , , it was his privilege to round out a career of remarkable influence and to leave to the world a brilliant - and honored memory. This Is n oi n bad time to recall " 5diat Prince Bismark said , about American protection in his speech before the reichstog- years ago : "The success of the United States ii material development is the aaost illustrious of modern times. The American nation has not only -successfully borne and suppressed the most gigantic and expensive war of all history , but immediate ly afterward it disbanded its army , jfound employment for all its sol diers and marines , paid off most of its debt , gave labor and homes to all the unemployed of Europe as iastas they could arrive within its ierritory. and still by a system of taxation so indirect as not to be per ceived , much less felt. Because it is my deliberate judgment that the jiosperity of America is due to its system of protective laws , I urge iltat Germany has now reached that raomt where it is necessary to im itate the tariff system of the United States"Journal. . ed States" . - " * * ' . ! , f Watch 1 Corner For the Next SO Days we Will have < NEW GOODS arriving daily.

JONAS ENGEL , Manager. \ \ MOST of the great acts of hero ism , says the Chicago Herald , are performed in the presence and un der the inspiration of applauding multitudes. Not so the deed oj Farmer Adams , who saved the train load of passengers , Friday night , near Enon Valley , Pa. , on the Fort "Wayne1 railroad. Some miscreants piled ties on the track , intending to wreck and loot the passenger train. Farmer Adams removed the ties one by one , while the robbers shot at him time after time from ambush. Wounded twice , once in the head and once in the leg , he did not desist until the last tie had been thrown from the track. Then he sank exhaust ed to the ground and the train rushed by in the darkness. "I'll clear the track or die in the at tempt , " he said , while the guns were cracking at him from the woods. Did anyone do or say any thing nobler or more knightly ? IN a recent interview Judge Gresham made a statement worth memorizing when he said , that , "as an American citizen , he con sidered it his duty to vote accord ing to his convictions , and that he owed no slavish obedience to any party. " This was well said. A man will vote as he chooses and will not be a slave to any party. These days it is not so much a question of blind devotion to party as of maintaining great principles , and every man ought to have clear convictions on the political issues now before us. The principles of the Kepublicau party will ever be found worthy of support. THE linen mills recently estab lished in Sioux Falls are noAV in successful operation and turning out excellent goods. This prom ising enterprise never would have been thought of but for the en couragement offered by the McKinley - Kinley tariff law. Bee.
