R. J. Cresswell Writes an Interesting and Historical Article About Developments in the Northwest. Rev. R. J. Cresswell, of Nethville, Wis., in the New York Observer; It was 1834. There strapped abeam from a Mississippi boat, at Fort Snelling, two men, whose names were destined to become household words in the tepees of the Slux nation—the Pond brothers, of one-gorge one—the Mission was a gourd tribe of prairie warriors, who savaged tribe of prairie warriors, by two-eared sword of the Spirit of God, and their uplift by the power of the Gospel of His Son. Then and began one of the most heroic struggles of modern times. What was the outcome? It was 1862. The scene shifts, two hundred miles to the west, to the shores of Lac-qui-parle, the Lake-wich-speaks. Twenty-eight years since the coming of the Pond brothers to Fort Snelling. All these years the work had been pressed with vigor. Great progress had been made, and the record of the savage Sloux had been reduced to language, the word of God had been translated into that wild barbaric tongue. hymn-books had been prepared, a literature for a nation had been created. Comfortable missions had been erected. Seventy-five converts have been gathered in church. The faithful missionaries who have been on the log cabin on the banks of Lac-qui-parle, with but little encouragement, now looked forward hopefully into the future. Three hundred Indian braves, mainly officers, were confined in prison pens at Benares, where they were opposed every effort of the missionaries, these warriors had hated the missionaries with all the intensity of their attacks, and they opposed every effort of the missionaries. They had scornfully rejected the invitations of the gospels but. Now, in their prison, they had been given the Great Deliverer. They desired to hear the gospel which they had formerly received from the missionaries to visit them in prison, and the arches came with joy, and the Holy Spirit came with joy, and the savage canvases were enveloped eagerly to the glad tidings of His salvation. And all that long winter of the prison, the rude walls of those terrible prison pens at Mankato one of the most wonderful revivals since the days of Pentecost. And all the prisoners were all baptized, Indian captives were all baptized, received into the communion of the church, and organized into a Presbyterian church at Mankato. The prisoners of the "The Church of the Scoote." Three years they were confined in prison at Davenport, the government and returned to their native prairies. There they formed schools, and so the Sloux became a bishopration rather than a terror to their neighbors on the Dakota, of the Scoote, and so the Sloux became a mother of many other churches. India's coral strand. India was no pagan festival, no savage council of war. It was the grand annual conference of the Indian Christians of the Northwest, a group that year from Manitoba, Montana, the Dakotas, and together as brethren of the Lord Jesus Christ. The white moderator, who thiked so gribbly alternately in Sioux and Englans, was a man of languages at once, "was Good Bird," one of the first white babies born at Lac qui Paroi, a city in Minnesota, as a boy had the site of Minnesota for a playground and little Indian lads at Iyakoumia, a town at Iyakoumia was a series of rich, rare treats. We listened to the theological class or young men, students of Santee Indian tribes of the women as they bowed in prayer and know their offerings to the missionary route, which wondrous liberality these darkest of wonders displayed, we marked with wonder the intense inter-religious spirit, a hour by hour all in classes in the sermons, addresses, especially in the discussions. The Rev. Mr. All-Good proposed for discussion: "How Shall We Build Up the church and said: The church in not so itself shall we build up so itself, prize a gun only as it does something for us, so we take good care of it. We must care for the church, if we would not have to go to the church we gather into the church." The Rev. James Red-Wing added: "The work of the church is heavy. When a Red river flows we can walk across it we can and together we lift it out must all lift the heavy load of the church." The Rev. David Grey Cloud closed must cast out all enlightenment we have love to all enlightenment and then we shall all be strong. "Does the keeping of Dakota customers injure the Dakota people?

TO PROVE HE LOVED HER TO PROVE HE LOVED HER A TEXAS COWBOY BREAKS ALL MIGH-DOWN BREAKS TO PLEASE HIS SWEETNESS PEOPLE WOULDN'T BELIEVE IT There Were, However, Many Reliable Witnesses, and the Story Was Finally Accepted as Fact. Fort Clark, Text Correspondence of the Globe-Democrat The great bridge constructed by the Sunset railroad across the Pecos river, in Western Texas, is very nearly the loftiest structure of the kind in the world. A few days ago the Pecos bridge was the scene of one of the most famous railroad accidents witnessed in the world. The Chicago man who recently went over Niagara Falls in a boat was engaged in childish pastime compared with the feat that was performed by a Texas lover to please his wife. A small crowd of boys and girls are enjoying outing on the Pecos river. Miss Lena Riners, who is the only daughter of a predeceased owner and outfitter of the Rio Grande girls, the prettiest girls in Western Texas, and has many admirers. Among the young men in Western Texas, and many accomplishments of this very lively Texas girl, none was more earnest and persistent in pressing his suit than the young man in the cowboy of the Western plains. This young man has certainly given ample proof that he "loved his little sweet life," as he said, "better than his own life." On last Sunday some fifteen or twenty young men and young girls, the sons and daughters of the poor, hood, went to the Pecos river bridge for the purpose of enjoying a picnic. Among the gay crowd was preyed on Lena Rina's girl on this occasion was in one of her happiest moods and especially attractive. Fred A. Darmon had failed to secure the girl to the picnic grounds, but he kept close enough to her to amuse a more fortunate lady to the picnic grounds, but he kept found an opportunity to press his suit. Miss Rina herself, with great earnestness and without reserve, tells her how she has not yet recovered from her fright. "I was in the utmost terror," she says, "for a long time after the dreadful occurrences of some fatal injury. If he had been killed I know that I never could have relied on my life. My sentence would have caused me of having been the cause of his death. It was already brought by a jess.

You have the same old story to tell. Why don't you do something to stuff you are continually talking about. Another member of the party, Mr. John Addison, who was present, tells theells that he had jumped from the bridge.

From the ground below a full grow man standing on top of Fecos bridges looks like a giant lily, slowly while crossing the lotty structure, and very few people are capable of summoning sufficient courage to take a second staircase to reach the coachers. With the exception of the stone pillars upon which the great steel columns are placed, the whole bridge is covered in a thick, often photograph presents a very poor example of the colossal structure. Columns, beams and braces that look like more threads in the bridge are found in the teen feet in diameter.

"Befo' de wah," when we had state banks, every business man subscribed for two or more "Counterfeit Detectors," which kept him informed in regard to the failure of banks and the counterfeits upon them, which were numerous. The first thing he did in the morning was to pull out his pocketbook and see which bank had "busted," and it was of frequent occurrence that a man would go to bed at night with one hundred dollars in his pocket, that would not be worth a penny in the morning. If we care to have free coinage of silver it will be necessary G15 PRESIDENT McKINLEY. to have a "Coin Value" or some publication to keep us informed as to the value of our dollars, and the first thing we'll do when we get up in the morning will be to look up our coin value publication to see if our dollar is worth 50 cents or has fallen to 42 cents. That is what Bryan is trying to induce us to come to. The white Methodist conference at Battle Creek, Mich., recently decided that preachers must quit politics. Every good citizen ought to take an interest in politics and see to it that the best men are elected to office. The Afro-American ministers are giving a lot of attention to politics in this campaign and they are advising their people to vote for McKinley, believing that the best interests of the race will be served thereby. The one bishop and few preachers who have gone over to Bryan will not cut any great figure. There is so much prosperity in Kansas that the banks are closing for want of business, there being no demand for investment money. Bank presidents and cashiers are becoming farmers because there is more money in that than in banking. Four years ago the farmers were not making any money; now they are rolling in prosperity. No Republican of any standing has ever advocated any plan to deprive the Afro-American of his rights as a citizen. All such schemes have been brought forward by Democrats. This shows that the great heart of the Republican party is right on all questions involving the rights of the Afro-American. It seems that Mr. Bryan is not much of a prophet. Four years ago he predicted that if McKinley were elected that the country would go to the demnition howwows. Now everybody knows that the four years of the McKinley regime have been the most prosperous in the history of the country. "Mr. Lincoln was right when speaking of the black man, he said that the time would come when they would help to preserve and extend freedom. And in a third of a century you have been among those who have liberty in Cuba to an oppressed people."—President William McKinley.

This is McKinley prosperity and its very satisfactory to the working people. Bryan is opposed to protecting American industries, but is in favor of foreigners competing upon equal terms with our own producers. He is in favor of buying where you can buy cheapest no matter if it closes every mill and every factory in the United States. During the Spanish-American war, the Afro-Americans had 266 officers, average of salaries at $1,600, $425,600; 14,784 privates at $208, $3,075; 5,000 men employed as drivers, cooks, servants, laborers at $250 per year, $1,250,000. Total, $4,751,072. The Southern Christian Recorder, organ of the African Methodist Episcopal church, of which Bishop Turner is the senior bishop, comes out flat-footed for McKinley. This is hard on the bishop, but it will do much to offset his defection to Bryan. W. Bourke Cochran, who advocates the repeal of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments to the Constitution, is a leading northern Democrat. Twenty-five years ago Cochran left Ireland to seek political and civil liberty in this country. A dinner pail hangs in the window of the national Republican headquarters at Chicago.

Bryan says that Senator Hanna amuses him. The senator's master mind is conducting the campaign which means the defeat of Bryanism and all the other isms. Things will not be so funny to the False Prophet after November 6. It was very discrete in Mr. Bryan not to come to the Grand Army reunion. The veterans of the slave-holder's rebellion fought to free a race from bondage. Bryan's party has taken away from the race its manhood rights. The Afro-Americans of the South are selling their cotton at $50 to $60 per bale. Four years ago it brought from $15 to $20 per bale. This is some of McKinley's presperity which comes right home to the race. The nope of the Filipino insurgents is in Bryan. They are watching the coming election with keen interest. Conservative residents of the islands say that the rebellion will be at an end if McKinley is re-elected. President McKinley goes before the people on his record. He is not infallible, but his record is so nearly perfect that he has no fear to go before the country on the results of his administration. The Goebel election law in Ken- W. H. HON. W. T. DURBIN.

These rights have been abridged and nullified by the Democratic party in the Southern States. There are thirty-four Afro-Americans on the pay roll of the general post office at Washington. Hon. P. Green, WILLIAM A. NORTHCOTT Will be Reelected Lientenant Governor of Illinois. United States postage stamp agent draws a salary of $2,599 per annum. Bryan is the foremost representative of disorder, license and anarchy. The spirit of mock rule now so strong in this country, would take a new start in case of his election. Under the federal constitution "imperialism" is impossible. William J. Bryan and other interested persons should read paragraph twelve of section eight, article one. Terrible as was the havoc caused by the storm in Galveston, the election of Bryan would entail upon the people of the whole country a disaster ten times more appalling. "The policy of free coinage of silver at a ratio of 16 to 1 is a policy fraught with destruction to every home in the land."—Theodore Roosevelt in his letter of acceptance. Mr. Rankin, of the Nashville American, says he is a Democrat and hopes for Bryan's election "to strengthen our hands in our state against Negro domination." It is not reasonable to suppose that the Afro-American voters will endorse and approve the crimes of the Democratic party against the race by voting for Bryan. When business is booming everybody is happy and contented. Re-elect McKinley and business will continue to boom and you will be happy and contented. The Cubans will ask for independence. It was promised by congress under the McKinley administration and the promise will be kept. When President McKinley was governor of Ohio, he ordered out the state militia to prevent the lynching of an Afro-American. Senator Hanna knows how to make "vote-getter" speeches. He has made very few, but they have all made votes for the party. Bryan says he will not be a candidate for re-election if he wins this time. He says nothing about his plans if he is defeated.

There was not one person among the vast throng that gathered at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Allen French and the Zilz who did not vote the affair the most enjoyable social function of the season. The occasion was the 21st anniversary of the birth of their son William Henry French, and the reception tendered him by his doting parents was the most largely attended, and the assemblage one of the most brilliant that the Twin Cities have ever witnessed. To add to the interest of the occasion, the affair was a surprise to Mr. French, who was spirited away by some of his young companions, until about to the hour of 99 p. m, when he returned to find assembled under his paternal roof of a thing, the visions of whose glad hearts were portrayed on their smiling faces, and when he glanced upon the host of frends whose joyous laughter lapped forth n harmony to the sweet strans of soft music that floated out upon the perfumed air, and the mixture of whose talent, wit and beauty were graced withal by the costumer's art—the home of his childhood days appeared him as if transformed by some magic hand into the Celestial gardens of the gods.

The people of the United States were on "half-rations," in 1894, but on full rations in 1898 and 1900. The official publications of the treasury bureau of statistics show that the wheat consumed in the United States in 1896 was but 3.41 bushels per capita, while in 1892 it was 5.91 bushels, and in 1898, 5.95 bushels per capita. In 1900 the home consumption will probably exceed 6 bushels per capita and be nearly, if not quite double that of 1894. This illustrates the advantage to the farmer of a flourishing business condition which assures him a satisfactory home market. In 1892 and 1899 factories were running on full time, the people employed in mines were worked to their highest capacity, railroads and their employees were busy working. The body was able to buy all the food that he required, while in 1899 and 1900 conditions are even better. The official publications of the department of labor show that wages are higher to-day than ever before in the history of the country—better even than in the prosperous year of 1892 when they reached the highest average that had ever been reached to that day. The effect of this condition upon the farmer is shown by the figures below quoted, which show that in 1892 and 1899 the people of the United States consumed practically 6 bushels of wheat per capita, and in 1894 but little over 3 bushels per capita. The home market took in 1892 63 per cent of the total crop of that year, and in 1898 67 per cent of the total crop of that year. The situation and necessity for economy on the part of a large proportion of the consumers, it took but 58 per cent of the total production. Even the fast that wheat was cheaper in 1894 than in 1892 or 1899 did not enable the people at that time to consume as much as they are now consuming under the present conditions for his wheat crop. The average export price of wheat in 1894 was 6 cents per bushel and in 1899 75 cents per bushel, and is still higher in 1900. Yet with the general depression which existed in 1894 the home market was less valuable to the farmer than for many preceding years, while under the prosperity which protection and sound currency supply, he sold at home a larger share of his products than he had in 1893. Mr. Bryan and the Democratic party propose to return to all of the conditions which produced the depression of 1894 and so greatly reduced the value of the home market and the price of everything that the farmer had to sell. The Democrats insist that a part of the business depression which followed the election of a Democratic president and congress in 1892 was due to the Sherman silver bank, which had been deposited the part of the public that the credit and currency of the government would not be maintained. The Republicans insist that it was chiefly due to the low tariff law which was enacted in 1892, and which had been assured ever since the election of Cleveland and a Democratic congress in 1892. Even if either or both these conditions are relied upon, the depression of 1894 it is safe to assume that Democratic success in 1900 would be followed by similar conditions, since Mr. Bryan and his party propose, if successful, to put the country on an absolute silver basis, or vastly worse than anything which could be charged against the Sherman law; while they also propose to return to a tariff even lower than that provided by the Willow River, which unsatisfactory to Democrats by reason of certain protective features which it contained. The following table shows the home consumption, total and per capita, of wheat in 1892, 1894 and 1899; also the quantities of wheat exported in each of those years, the average export price, and the per cent of the crop retained for home consumption in each year. It will interest every farmer, and, indeed every one interested in seeing activity in all branches of our home industries: Home Consumption— Bushels Bushels Year. Consumed.

The influence of free trade in depressing the industries of the country and in lowering the export business are shown in the statistics of exports for the past twenty years. The statement is a most remarkable demonstrable fact of the Republic, an policy that the stimulation of home industry stimulates the export trade.

For Civilization of Mankind. One thing that can be said of this nation, for which we should give all thanksgiving and praise, is that it never raised its arm against humanity, never struck a blow against liberty, never struck a blow except for civilization of mankind. - William McKinley, Industrious Play Prosperity Manufacturers in Chicago are enjoying a great share of prosperity. Every firm in the city complains of its inability to keep up with daily orders. This indicates general prosperity throughout the country, for it is only when business is flourishing that people indulge in such luxuries as planes and organs.

Third Street, St. Paul. the makers of pianos with more orders than they can fill in several months. Here are snap shots taken by Wabash avenue manufacturers: S. P. Healy (Lyon & Healy)—We are face to face with a proposition of disjunction in instruments than we can manufacture. E. S. Ginway (W. K. Wimball Company)—There is an immediate market for every piano which is made, and the trade is increasing with a growing per cent from year to year. W. B. Price (Cable Piano Company)—We are buying a new a factory at St. Charles, Ill., so that we might come somewhere near supplying the demand. Our business at the present time is unprecedented. John Church (John Church Company)—We are further back in our orders than we have ever been before, and we are not only through the fact that people seem to have more money than usual. Frank Story (Story & Clark)—We are utterly unable to supply the trade, which has been steadily increasing since 1896. I think I am conservative when I figure a third increase, and it would not surprise me if it amounted to once more than last year. W. G. Bauer (Estey & Camp)—Behind in orders for two years, and it will be some time before we catch up. George P. Bent—Far behind on orders, and have bought ground for an extension of plant. The New Star-Spungled Banner. Oh, say, can you see, by the far East light. What so proudly we nailed at the twilight's last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars, after many a fight, In lands near and far, is so gallantly streaming? And the thanks in our prayer, rising high in the air, Give proof to the world that our flag is still there: Oh, say, if the star-spangled banner be waved 'Oler the lands we have freed and the people we've saved! Oh, thus be it always, whenever we stand Between the oppressed and a king's desolation! Blest with victory and peace, may the heaven-rescued land Praise the power that hath made us a powerful nation! And onward we must, for our cause is just: And this be our motto, "In God is our trust;" Let the star-spangled banner in triumph be waved umph be waved. 'Over the lands we have freed and the people we saved!' —Martin Saxe, 258 Broadway, New York City, N. Y. Democracy Halts at No Deception. Capt. William H. Elliott, the representative of the department of the interior, has this to say about the repeated reports of "trouble" in Portc Rico. But it be borne in mind that material for the wild and weird stories published by the Democratic press of the United States is furnished by Spaniards for the purpose of bringing the citizens of Porto Rico into disrepute, and with the hope, false and fallacious though it may prove, of weakening the efforts being put forth under the law of congress to organize an equitable civil government that will accord to every man, rich or poor, black or white, liberty and justice, and in lift the hand of turn the island over as spoils to the rapaciously rich and brutally harsh Spanish taskmakers, as in the past." Bryan Could Not Answer At Bryan's old Norr Answer. At Bryan's old Norr Answer at Fort Wayne, Ind., to the memory of Gen. Henry W. Lawton William J. Bryan sat on the same platform with Gov. Mount and heard the Republican governor recite Lawton's famous speech before he was killed: "If I am shot by a Filipino bullet it might as well come from one of my own men, because I know from observation, confirmed by captured prisoners, that the continuance of the fighting is chiefly due to reports that are sent out from America." It was a dramatic moment, and Bryan was the focus of 20,000 eyes set through it silent, with bowed head. When he rose to speak he disregarded the expansion utterances of Gov. Mount, and paid tribute to Gen. Lawton as a soldier. He could not answer the startling impeachment of the dead soldier. Exports of Agricultural Products There is a world of thought for farmers in the record of wheat and wheat flour for the past three years under the Republican administration as compared with what it was when the Democrats were in control. Good seasons brought the bountiful crops, of course, but good times, created by the protective tariff, advanced prices at home. Increased the consumption and thus enabled the farmer to sell his surplus abroad for higher prices. The record of exports of wheat and flour in values is as follows: Four Years. Three Years. Cleveland. McKinley. Total value... $431,765,012 $533,304,415 Avge per year. 107,825,253 177,766,138 For receiving $70,000,000 a year more for their wheat and its product which are sold abroad than when times were dull in this country. Nebraska Land Valuer Money is being loaned on land near Nebraska City, Neb., at 5 per cent on a valuation of more than $30 per acre. Four years ago under Democratic policy the same land was begging a purchaser at $2.50 per acre. Good crops and prosperity brought by protection and a sound financial policy did it. Savings Bank Deposits Belle Bryan. Much solicitude has been expressed by our opponents for the depositors in saving banks. In many cases they pay before these depositors advantage of a gold standard, but these appeals will be in vain, because savings bank depositors know that under a gold standard there is increasing danger that they will lose their deposits because of the inability of the banks to collect their assets; and they must know that if the gold standard is to continue indefinitely they may be compelled to withdraw their deposits in order to pay living expenses—Bryan's First Battle. Since that was uttered savings bank deposits have grown enormously. In the year 1894, under Democratic free trade, 3,413,407 depositors in savings banks had $1,265,450,416 to their credit; in 1899 the number of depositors had grown to 4,500,000 and the money deposited to $1,782,874,451. The county Republican executive committee is making plans to have meetings in Chicago more effective than ever if possible. It was decided to have short talks and many of them by local speakers, especially the candidates, rather than one or two long set efforts.

Heath of the Republican national committee have returned from a week's trip through the West. They visited Wyoming and Utah, heard some of the ovations to Governor Roosevelt, and enjoyed a brief respite from the exactions of committee work.
