The Grange advance. [volume] (Red Wing, Minn.) 1873-1877, 1876-02-02
Commercial,

There is more activity in business
this week, the reason being that the re.
cent SHOWS have improved the roads,
and the price of wheat has advanced
slightly. Those farmers who cannot
conveniently hold until spring are SELL
ing more freely. There is a good deal
of complaint in the country tributary to
this city, growing out of the fact that
the ruling price for wheat here has been
considerably less, during the entire sea-
son, than at Lake City and Hastings,
and even at Cannon Falls. The effect
is to cause feeling Of bitterness towards
this city, reduce the business done here
and tend to occasion a permanent loss
Of a very considerable share of trade.
The farmers in this immediate vicin-
ity are talking seriously about putting
The Grange advance. [volume] (Red Wing, Minn.) 1873-1877, 1876-02-02

-1ne 1RANGE ADVANCE, OF Red
Wing, is throwing off all DISCUSSES, and
each week is out more openly in favor
Of specie contraction, whiskey rings,
third term, and all that kind Of thing.
This is considerably further than John
Gault and the pay car intended it should
go. If it keeps on, it will get over so
far it can't get back, and will be so
damaged for mischief that it will be no
object for the pay car to give it call
next fall.-lsdustr1az Age.
We are extremely sorry to see the
Age sinking itself to the level of the
common liar and defamer, but the
above-quoted paragraph proves that
it has reached that depth. Every
reader of the ADVANCE knows that
this paperhas consistently advocated
financial reform and opposed con-
traction and all "specie basis" sys-
TENS of currency; and as for favor
ing "whisky rings and "third term,"
the charges are simply absurd.
Now, we ask our anti-monopoly
friends to pause and consider. Is
it probable that man who, like the
writer of the above, will publish
deliberate falsehood, as our readers
know the above to be, in order to
injure a contemporary who has given
no provocation, will be a safe man
to depend upon and fellow? Is
anything he may say worthy of con-
fidence2 Can you rely upon him?
Is it not far more probable that,
instead of being sincere apostle Of
reform, desirous only of doing pub
lie good, he is the paid emissary of
corruptionists, hired to deceive the
people and entice them to their own
ruin? Remember, he favored coali-
ton with the democracy last fall,
and it is unreasonable to believe
that his present advocacy of an in
dependent third party is at the bid
ding of his democratic masters, be-
cause we know that the formation of
such party, at this time, will tend to
increase the probabilities of demo-
cratic success.

up a warehouse and making arrange
ments to advance money on wheat
stored with them, so as to save the ag-
riculturai community from being at the
mercy of a few dealers. As the inter-
ests of the business men and property
holders generally of Red Wing are iden-
tical with those Of the farmers, we do
not see why such combination is not
feasible and that the local business men
may not be expected to join with the
farmers in efforts to protect the general
interests Of the community.
The reports from abroad, indicate an
early advance in the price of wheat.
The Mark Lane Express says that
prices are now affected in the English
market by damp wheat which has been
recently thrown upon it, and that it is
likely there will be but little advance
before March 1st. The French and
German markets are reported firm with
indications Of advances at an early flu
ture day, and the general supply is said
to be very. considerably less than at a
corresponding period last year.
/ Prices here ore still 85c for No 2 and
9oc for No !, with somewhat heavier
receipts, and the quality generally good.
Dressed Hogs are coming in freely
and are selling at from 81 per 100 lbs
for light and sinferior hogs to $3.50 for
desirable lots. Most of those received
are such as; command from 81 25 to
81 so.
Butter is arriving freely. A good
article for the table brings 20@25c, but
poorer qualities are considerably lower
and do not find ready sale.
Corn is quoted at 40@45c and oats
at 30@35c. Wood is 81 for hard and
So for soft qualities.

capped the consequence of his crime
on the plea of insanity, or that, at
the worst, he would have been let
off with a few years Imprisonment.
To convict and properly punish him
would have been hardly possible.
No doubt this knowledge influenced
him to some extent in the commits
sion of the deed, and that his futile
essay at self-murder was but a ruse
to create sympathy in his own be-
half, or, at least, to provide a foun-
dation for plea Of insanity. Under
such circumstances, when there is
such general laxity in the execution
of the law against murder, it is not
strange that the community takes
such outrageous cases as this in its
own hands, and makes a fearful ex-
ample OF the cowardly miscreant.
1t IS mob-law it is true, and the prac-
tice is not safe or right, but the
blame for such acts should rest upon
the governing powers, who neglect
to properly administer the laws, and
not upon the justly incensed men,
bers Of the community whom the
laws are intended to protect. Even
lynching has its excuse, when it is
the only means left for securing just
and adequate punishment of crime.

The following from the New York
Sun shows that there are "wheels
within Wheels" and that it is we'll
enough for our anti-monopolist friends
to be wary or they will be used for a
very different purpose from that they
desire to accomplish:
To the Editor of the Sun-S1R: Railroad
passes are being very literally scattered
over the State Of Pennsylvania among repre-
sentative workingmen, to induce them to at
tend an Anti-Monopoly Convention to meet
in Harrisburg Feb. lst. The Convention
was called by Scott through certain Of his
tools to manufacture public opinion for his
Texas Pacific bill.
Prominent trade uniorists are bought
over, and one or two labor papers have been
literally subsidized to further the scheme.
The resolutions are all prepared, and the
"roosters" and "pinchers" are already on
the ground here waiting for the game.

The Plainview Tragedy.

Our readers have probably heard
the particulars of horrible transac-
ton at Plainview, on the ed ult.
Frank Hathaway aged twenty-five
years, deliberately procured a pistol,
followed up Miss Nettie Slayton,
aged eighteen, and brutally murder
ed her. He then ran from the
house, but seeing that an alarm was
already given, turned the pistol up
on himself and inflicted a severe
wound.
He was conveyed to the hotel,
and physicians pronounced him like
ly to recover. The girl died imme-
diately upon being shot and was
buried on the. following Monday,
and the occurrence occasioned in
tense excitement. The murderer
and his victim were both we'll known
and belonged to respectable fami-
lies. He was somewhat dissipated,
but she was an exemplary young
lady and very generally esteemed.
The excitement increased as time
elapsed, and on Tuesday night some
fifteen masked men suddenly appear
ed, and going quietly to the hotel
took young Hathaway from his bed
and hung him to tree in the hotel
yard, and then as quietly left, no
word having been spoken nor any,
thing done by means Of which their
identity could be even suspected.
For some unaccountable reason the
body was allowed to remain hanging
for two hours, Notwithstanding that
there were several persons in the no.
tel who knew what the lynchers were
doing, and that the latter left imme-
diately upon the consummation of
their errand.
Since this affair occurred the press
generally has been exceedingly Sc
we're in condemning the lynchers.
They are denounced as outlaws and
murderers, and it is claimed that
their act has disgraced the State. Is
this right or just? We hardly think
so. We all know that it is almost
impossible to convict a murderer,
and that conviction is most frequent
ly followed by wholly inadequate
punishment. Indeed, that murder
is the least punished OF any crime
on the list. In this case cold
blooded murder was committed, the
victim being an amiable young lady,
whose only offence was that she
would not accept her murderer for
her lover. There was nothing to
show that any previous intimacy ex-
isted between them, that she ever
encouraged his advances, or that he
had any cause whatever to complain.
Yet he deliberately planned and ac-
complished her death in most cruel
manner.
Now, had this young murderer
been put upon his trial, all the
chances are that he would have es-

I'VE understand that some

I'VE understand that some OF
our friends find fault, because we
censured the speeches of Messrs.
Cox and Hill on the amnesty bill
and said nothing about that of Mr..
Blaine. If they had read our re-
marks unprejudicedly, they would
have seen that it was hardly in our
way to allude to Mr.. Blaine's speech
at all. If they desire to know what
We think of it, we can say freely
that we regard it as unnecessarily
vindictive. 1t is most probably a
trick of the willy Mainite to provoke
just such retorts as Messrs. HiH and
Cox INDUCED in, and in failing into
the snare they showed a sad lack
of good common sense, and in their
anger exposed sentiments of hostility
towards the government, which are
inexcusable in men of their ,intelH-
gence and official position. There
is great deaI of difference between
Blaine's denouncing the late South
ern Confederacy, and HiH's and
Cox's intemperate and untruthful
assertions against the government
they so recently swore to sustain.

Poor old "Uncle Billy" other
wise known as VIM. Mckee, editor
of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
has been convicted of being one of
the whisky ring, and will be sent to
jail with Joyce, Mcdonald and
Avery. We are extremely sorry to
know this, for Mr.. Mckee has been
a very useful man, and endeared
himself to an extensive circle of &C.
quaintances by his uniform kindness
and benevolent disposition. We
hope and believe that his completely
in the whisky business is more the
result of weak complaisance than of
criminal intention.
