    For the Warciyax,
The Months in North Dakota.
As April advances the last snow drift fades
from along the bluffs; the last ice melts from
the lakes; the smell of the fresh earth is in the
air, and the voice of blackbird and lark pro-
claims the arrival of spring. The days are
clearand dry and bright; about the lakes the
wild geese honk and clamor in the still night,
you being able to hear them for miles ; as the
ice disappears immense flocks of ducks make
their appearance, blackbirds swarm on the
brushy islands, or follow the busy plow or har
row. The prairies put on a faint green dress,
tne knolls are spangled with budding crocuses,
and winter's reign is over.
Now May has come and the farmers are busy
sowing oats and wheat and barley ; the days
are warm and bright, the nightsare clear and
lovely; there are no rainy, foggy days; the
ground becomes dry and dusty. Sometimes
early in the month great fires sweep over the
prairies, licking up the long dead grass and
lighting up the sky at night for miles. The
airis full of gray-winged screaming gulls;
vast flocks of brant pass overhead or sit in
mile-long rows on the grain fields. The trees
put forth their leaves; the lakes shimmer like
silver in the evening sunshine. Scmetimes
little miniature whirl-winds go swirling over
the fields, raising great clouds of dust; the
prairiesare fair and green, and flowers are
blooming everywhere.
With the first of June the farmers finish
sowing their oats and barley, and now the sea-
son of rain is at hand; day after day the show-
ers come pattering down; the lakes and
streams are filled to overflowing ; the grass is
long and lush ; roses bloom everywhere ; the
timbered islands are a fairy sight; the choke-
cherry and hawvhorn are in bloom. Each tree
and thicket is occupied by kingbird, Crow or
hawk, and many are the fierce battles they
have with each other. The breaking plow is
now at work ; you hear the long drawn gee of
the driver and see the patient oxen plod along.
As you draw near you hear the steady sh-h-h
as the knife-like shear cuts its way through
the tough sod that rising on the polished
mould-board turns over in a long black strip
and lays one furrow joining another like
planks in a floor ; and so the month passes.
Itis July. The rains have passed by to come
again no more until the course of time rolls
round to another June. The days are long and
warm and bright ; the sun rises at three o'clock
and does not set until nine; daylight lingers
an hour longer; the northern sky gleams red
and rosy through the short cool night; the
twilight of evening mingles with that of dawn.
The south wind blows softly, heavy with the
scent of flowers; the grass waves its long
plnmes over the ripening strawberries ; the
wheat and barley put forth ears; the lakes are
clear and limped under the warm sun, or
gleam like silver in the moonlight; young
ducks paddle about the sedgy shores; great
white pelicans sail solemnly along asif they
carried the burdens of half the worla; young
gophers venture out of their deep burrows
and play and chase each other on the little
knolls. The grass in the sloughs is tour feet
high and the wind as it passes by stirs it soft-
ly. The breaking plow is laid aside; the
ground becomes dry and hard; sometimes a
great black cloud rises out of the west, it pass-
es by with rolling thunder, with flashes of
white lightning, with amighty roaring wind,
but seldom any rain. The sunrise is lovely,
the sunset glorious; overhead the sky is fair
and blue, underfoot the grass is green and
sweet, and life is beautiful.
With the coming of August the hum of the
busy mower is heard on every side; long low
haystacks rise about the sloughs; the barley
fielas are silver white, the wheat fields golden
yellow. As the days go by the binders are at
werk, their clatter is heard in every field;
they cut and bind the grain more deftly than
human hands can do it; the grass becomes
brown and dry, the roads are hard and smooth;
the ponds are dry, the lakes recede ; some-
times you see flocks of prairie chizkens among
the sheaves; in the dusk of evening foxes
steal silently through the dead grass. The
northern lights hang out their rosy banners
in the still night time. And so the days go by
. and usher in September.
The days grow shorter, the nights are cool.
Ducks rest upon the waters in countless num-
bers and fall easy victims to the fowling piece
of the hunter. The busy muskrat builds his
winter house. Sometimes the ‘sunrise brings
the mirage, the faraway hills seem near at
hand, the lakes are elevated in air and glitter
like mirrors ; about their margins are beauti-
fui groves ; a littie shock is transfigured into
a lovely home, with terraced lawns and grav-
eled walks; sedge and weeds become forests
and orchards, and the whole Prairie is a fairy
scene. From dawn till dark the roar of thresh-
ing is heard, the giant engines vomit black
smoke, the grimey engineer and fireman look
like demons, the men shout wildly to each
other. When the day is done, tired and dirty
they wrap a blanket about themselves and
crawl into the straw pile for a few hours sleep
and rest. The sky is blue, the sun is warm,
but the air grows chill,
October; frost in the still nigists. The
brant return from the far north and light by
thousands on the stubble fields; there are
many gray geese also and their clamor is deaf-
ening. The island trees shed their leaves and
stand naked and desolate in the calm sunshine;
the dead flags and wild rice, reaching far
above your head, rustle and Snap as you pass
among them. And now come the autumn
prairie fires; day after day the air is filled with
smoke; night after night you see their red
light far and near, Long rows ot wagons load-
ed with wheat pass by toward the town: you
hear them returning far in the night, the pa-
tient oxen plodding along, while the
sing merrily or call to each other. The plows
are busy turning over the soil for nextyear's
crop; and so the days go by and usher in No-
vember,
drivers
Ice forms on the lakes; wild storms of wind
and dust sometimes come rushing from the
north ; some days are cloudy and gloomy ; all
the summer birds and wild fowl leave us; the
owls that sits on the knolls are white as snow;
the weasels that creep about the hay stacks
and the long-eared rabbits are of the same
color. The days are short, the nights are long
and clear and frosty ; the stars shine out in
countless numbers with a clear bright light that
is seen in no other land; the moon gleams like
a silver shield. - The prairies are dead and
black with the touch of fire ; they are and
lonely and desolate. The days are calm and
clear; perhaps the south wind blows; if so, you
need not wish for lovelier weather; you may
sit around in your summer coat or work in
your shirt sleeves; but cold or warm, the air is
dry, thesky is clear, the sun shines by day, the
stars by night, and there is no rain or fog or
sleet.
vast
And now it is December; the weather be-
comes colder; the frost artist paints the win-
dows every night; there is a continual deep
booming like the report of far away cannon; it
is the pent up waters of the lakes bursting the
ice that prisons them. In the stil] midnight
you hear the hungry yelping of foxes, or the
far off savage howling of wolves. The steel
shoe of the skater rings merrily over the froz-
en waters, and the white winged iceboat flashes
along like a great sea gull. The sun rises in
the southeast and sets in the southwest, and
even at noonday has no great power; the moon
is far in the north, the mercury gets down
about zero; some night a gray cloud spreads
over the sky, the snow falls faster and faster,
the wind comes up out of the north, it blows
and moans and wails over the vast plains; for
many hours the wild blizzard rages, but snugly
housed you look out aud laugh at its wild fury.
At last the winds have exhausted themselves;
the sun rises in the clear sky, your eyes are
dazzled by the snow that lays in ridges and
pillows like a wind tossed ceean ; far and near
ring the merry bells, sleighs and cutters
come and go; and, oh, thes happy sleighers;
the men are clothed in long buffalo coats, fur
mittens and caps, and look like Captain Kane's
pictures of Esquimaux, and the women are
hooded and mittened and wrapped in furs;
they are fair, and the men are brave and strong,
and all are gay and happy.
January ; old winter is now in earnest and
gets down to steady work ; the mercury drops
down among the twenties below zero, the snow
lies deep and white ; the roads are smooth, the
sleighing splendid. The air is dry and pure
and bracing; the sky is clear most of the
time and beautiful sun dogs-show themselves
in the sky ; the mirage works its wonders al-
most every morning, the faraway bluffs are
drawn near by its magic, the lakes are raised
in air, and you seem to be in a winter fairy
land. Inthe frosty mornings you see the
neighbors houses for many miles around
hang out their gray smoke banners }
you hear talking in an ordinary voice at the
distance of a mile ; the people are very social ;
card-parties, dancing singing and music assist
in passing the long evenings pleasantly ; and
so moves the first month of the new year.
And now comes February, the month of
blizzards, wild winds and drifting snow. The
ice dust goes rushing along the surface of the
earth in blinding fury. God help him who is
so foolish as to venture far out on the trackless
prairie in these fierce storms. Bewildered,
blinded, groping in the thick mist, beaten,
buffetted. smothered and freezing, he at last
lies down to die, while overhead the sun
looks coldly down in seeming bitter mockery,
But, thank God, such happenings are very
rare indeed. The storm is over, the snow
is beaten hard, cutters and horses scarcely
leave a track a3 they skim over the smooth
billowy surface. Oh! you poor dwellers in
the fog and mud and mists of the Atlantic
states, you have all the discomfort and none
of the joys of winter. To you comes not
the pleasure of snow shoes, ice boats, to-
boggans or swift flying cutters ; to you comes
not the pleasure of following red deer and an-
telope over the glittering plains, or tracking
the wily fox or cayote along tho winding
conleys.
March ; the sun is returning from the south’
the snow melts in his ardent rays; but the
nights are yet cold, and some days are dark
and stormy. As the month passes the warm
winds come from the south, the snow melts
rapidly, the water runs off into lake and
conley; you see the brown sod again and
smell the sweet earth, The sleigh gives place
to wheels once more; the roads are never
muddy ; the first wild geese make their ap-
pearance and are greeted with the joyous
bang of rifle and shot gun ; the cattle pasture
contentedly over the prairies ; the gopherand
badger coma out of ‘their winter dens; the
long legged jack-rabbits hop about in the warm
sunshine. The energetic tarmer has.his har-
rows at work on the black soil. Some calm
warm day yoda walk out along the grassy
knolls, and lo ! you see a venturesome crocus,
the first sweet messenger of spring.

It is with sadness that we note the death of
little Bertha Rokison Long, a most beautiful
child. We believe the cause of her death was
inflammation of the bowels. On the 12th inst
the remains were interred at Williamsport by
the side of its little sister who preceded her to
the realms of bliss but a few weeks ago. This
was the sixth death in the Robison family
within the short space of about one year.
During their stay in our village Mrs. Robison
and family formed many acquaintances who
extend their sympathy in this their sad be-
revements.
Jottings from Philipsburg.
The grip fastened on Mr. Alex Pearce and
after a hopeless tussle of one day left him, and
he is about his work, that of P. R. R. ticket
agent, as jolly as usual.
Philipsburg has added a sound young dem-
ocrat to her population in the person of
“Mick” Richards who moved from near Port
Matilda on Monday to take charge of the
Swan House, a well known boarding house and
hostelry.., We wish him success in the new
venture,
The spread and severity of La Grippe has
been as great here as inmost other towns of our
population. The schools have fallen off to a
marked degree. Prof. Richy says more than
40 percent of the school children of the
town, have been away from school on account
of it. The reports from contiguous school dis-
tricts show an average, we believe, fully as
great.
“Drown it out,” was the adtice of a jolly po:
litician given two weeks ago to a friend who
was suffering from La Grippe. We met the
friend a few days since and he pronounced
the treatment very eflicacious. “Only” said
he “I am now looking for a remedy for the
blossom on my nose.” (Other papers please

The Masonic fraternity here lost two of its
valued members by death recently. Mr. E. A.
Ryman, a merchant and a member of the
school board was buried on Monday afternoon,
Jan. 6. The schools were closed out of res-
pect to him and to give the teachers the op-
portunity to attend his funeral. Mr. Jno. A.
Lehr for four years chief of police was fol-
| lowed tohis last resting place on Thursday
i January 9, by the Mason, Fire Department, G.
A. R. Post and a large number of friends. The

! time not in good health, was injured while dis-

John Jannoh, the hack driver from Morris- |
dale had his tribulations too this muddy
weather. Last Saturday on driving up to one
of our hotels preparatory to starting on the ;
return trip, a crowd of women, each carrying a
huge and heavily laden basket, hurried to get
in. «No, ng” said John, “I must take the
men.” “To thed—I| with the men,” angrily ex-
claimed an irate dame, “let them walk,” and
they crowded the hack to overflowing. John
fired a perfect volley of threats larded heavily
with “sweets words” at them, but finding the
women were there to stay and others were
hurrying up to try to get on, he caught up the
lines and drove rapidly away. The last we
saw of him he was anchored in the mud, the |
women were tenaciously clinging to the rig
and several men assisting him to repair his
broken hack.
Mud, mud, mud, all over our city. The
rains and humid atmosphere for some weeks
have kept our streets wet until the mua, mix-
ed and remixed, is of the consistency of paste
and of uncertain depth. No material seems
proof against this, the part of Front street re-
cently “macadamized” with so much care,
! being in very poor condition too. The country
trade is almost cut off and our merchants suf-
fer in consequence. The liverymen, teamsters
and lumbermen are greatly discouraged:
Those of us who are not in the clutches of the
grip have observed some funny incidents oc-
curring to persons on the streets. I will not
stop to tell how a dude after daintily picking
his way nearly over one of our crossings
slipped on a treacherous stone and sat down in
the mud, nor how he made a break for the
nearest public place with mud dripping from
him and followed by the hearty cheers of
some ever present urchins, but must note
what struck your reporter as a very funny in- |
cident. An old colored man who drives a de-
livery wagon may be seen on the streets every
day, beaming a benevolent smile on all whom
he meets and frequently courteously tip-
ping his hat, the personification of the oid
time Virginia darkey. A few days since on
coming toone of the street crossings his wa-
gon plunged into a rut and he performed an
involuntary summersault out into the mud, As
he arose what could be seen of his sable coun.
tenance did not wear the usual serene look
and we hope the recording angle made no
note of the fervent words with which he gave
expression to his feelings.

Editor of the Warcuyan.
The Nation Disgraced.
As a citzien of this great country I had sin-
cerely hoped that the statements respecting
Vice President Morton's licensed hotel would
prove false. This;hope was so strong that when
the reports first came I contradicted them,
believing that the accusation would be found
to be false, and that the action of the Terre
Haute, Indiana, Liquor Dealers, Association in
electing Mr Morton an honorary member, would
prove to be only an attempt to besmireh his
fair name by connecting him with that in-
famous business. But with sorrow we find our
hopes are blasted, and we must now admit
with shame that the Shoreham Hotel, owned |
by the Vice President of the]United States, is
licensed to sell liquor. This evidence comes
from the Pittsburg Times, a Republican paper
which certainly would not misstate the facts. It
says: “We observe with regret that the charge
“that Vice President Morton is engaged in the
“retail liquor business can no longer be de-
“nied. The license procured by the manager
“of the Shoreham Hotel hangs displayed as re-
“quired by the law in the cafe thereof. The
‘ist which is handed to his guests to’ choose
“from has been printed, showing that there are
“for sale five different kinds of whisky, two
“of rum, two of brandy,and twenty-five brands
“of wine. Surely this is enough to satisfy the
“most variegated appetite for intoxicants. Mr.
“Morton owns the property. Without his for-
“mal consent the license could ndt have been
“procured, and he shares the profits of the sale
“of liquor as undeniably as if hestood behind
“the bar and served his customers. The Vice
“President of the United States has a legal
“right to add to his salary the profits of a
“saloon undoubtedly. A saloon keeper is con-
“stitutionally eligible for even the presidency,
“and the moral sentiment of the country would
“suffer no greater outrage by a saloon keeper
“becoming Vice President than it does by a
“Vice President turning saloon keeper.”
This places the matter in its true and prop-
er light before the country, It shows that
there is one particular paper, and of the same
political faith asthe Vice President, that bold-
ly speaks out in condemnation of his course in
this particular, :
We ask in Heaven's name, how are the fath
ers and mothers to save their boys from peing
destroyed by the rum-fiend when the second
highest officer of the government, with all the
weight of his mighty influence, sanctions the
damnable traffic by consenting to have his own
hotzl or flat licensed, and; by profiting finan-
cially from the sale of intoxicating liquor?
The religious press and ministers of the
Gospel all over the land should rise to the
irue height of this emergency and boldly de-
nounce the great injury and reproach inflict-
ed upon the nation by this act of a Vice Presi-
dent elected upon a platform that declared in’
favor of temperance and sobriety and good gov-
ernment. Why does not Mr. Morton, as the
owner of the property, either revoke the li-
cense, or express his disapproval ? Surely he
he owes that much to the people who elected
him, who never would have done so had they
known that he wouldZso soon be the owner of
a house licensed to sell intoxicants.
When General John A. Dix, then the pro-
prietor of the Woodland House,Chicago,was
tolaby ! his agent that his house would stand
empty for the season unless he consented to a
bar in it, the brave old general dispatched :
‘Let it stand empty then. I would ratherhav e
it stand empty to the end of time than to have
it rented for such purposes!” Would to God
Vice President Morton had the convictions and
integrity on the temperance question that
| organized and enthusiastic.
General Dix had. Then the nation would not !
feel humiliated by the act of its Vice Presiden t |
as it does, nor would mothers tremble for their
boys asthis sanction of the rum traffic makes |
them tremble,
Voters of Pennsylvania, think what you are
doing ! A vote for the Republican party is a
vote for the Brooks high license ; a vote for
high license is a vote in favor of the whisky
trafic. The two are inseparably connected.
Then let us as parents and as 200-1 citizens vote
for that party in the future which offers the®
greatest moral good to our children,

An Appeal for a Monument to the Moth.
er of Washington
An appeal for money to erect a
monument over the grave of the mother
of the great Washington at Fr. dericks-
burg, Virginia, has been issued as fol-
lows.
“An association of ladies has been
formed in Fredericksburg that has for
its end the building of a monument to
Mary, the mother of Washington, at
her grave in this town. Nowhere is her
character and life so well known and so
much honored as in the old town where
she lived for years, in the house, which
is still well preserved, and where she
died and is buried.
“The association is chartered, well
An Ad-
visory Board of responsible gentlemen
pledge their counsel and their aid, and
the National Bank of Fredericksburg
will be the custodian of all funds in-
trusted to it.
“It has been one hundred years
since Mary Washington died, and was
buried, at her own request, in a beauti-
ful spot in the borders of the town of
Fredericksburg, Virginia. A good and
noble woman she was. Early in life a
widow, she stood bravely in her
difficult lot, and reared her family in
principles of patriotism, integrity and
piety; and then lived to old age to
illustrate the virtues she taught.
“It was Mary Washington who
gave her first-born son, that magnifi-
cent physical form, with his extraordin-
ary powers of action and endurance,
that self-poised, mental force, that
power to command, that calm dignit
| and gentle grace which robed the un-
crowned King of the American people,
with a majesty perhaps unequalled by
any character the world has ever seen’;
and who gave her son a supreme re-
gard for right, and taught him in con-
fessed weakness to look to God for
strength and guidance.
“With confidence in the disinterested
and patriotic end at which we aim, we
appeal to the people of our great Ameri-
can republic to aid in our work. Let
the 22d of February, 1890, the anniver-
sary of the day when this great woman
gave birth to her first-born son, be
marked and celebrated by contributions
all over the land to this pious cause.
Let subscriptions be opened by news-
papers. Let local associations of ladies
be formed with a fee of $1 per member,
and the money collected be forwarded,
from time to time, to the National Bank
of Fredericksburg, Va.”
Brice Elected Senator,
CoLuMBUS, O., Jan. 14.—Calvin S.
Brice was to-day elected to the United
States Senate, receiving a majority of
the votes in either branch of the Legis-
lature. The vote in the Senate was:
Halstead, 1; Foster, 14, and Brice, 19.
In the House a call was demanded to-
bring in members. Brown (Dem.), of
Hancoock, who is sick, was carried to
the hall in a chair. The only other
Democrats absent were Troeger, of
Holmes, and Lawler, of Franklin, who
is ill. ‘Willis and Blair (Repnblicans)
were absent. On the roll-call the vote
of Counts for Brice was received with
cheers, as was also that of Munson, two
of the members who were credited with
being bolters.-
Smith, the third caucus bolter, voted
for L. T. Neal. His vote was received
with a subdued murmur. The vote in
the House stood : Brice, 57; Foster, 52 ;
Neal, 15. Brice was declared the choice
of the House, having received a majority
of the votes. The result will be can-
vassad by the Senate and House in joint
session to-morrow. The joint result of
the two branches is: Brice, 76; Foster,
66 ; Halstead, 1; Neal, 15.
