We understand that a project is on
foot among some outside capitalists to
establish sugar refinery at this place,
provided the farmers in the vicinity
can be induced to plant at least 1000
acres Of sugar cane, yearly. The es-
tablishment of a sugar refinery here
would indeed be blessing for this vi
entity, and we think that our farmers
will be willing enough to encourage
such an undertaking to their fullest
extent.
Some poor fellow who did not find
roast pigs running about with knives
and forks sticking in them, ready to
be eat, nor did he find Mansard roof
residence with accompanying appur
tenances on Uncle Sans claims, con-
sequently he passed through here the
other day bouud for the East, where
his MA is, with the following words
painted on his wagon: ssHorace Gree
ley be damned Home, sweet home"

We met German Democrat from
Dakota county last week who did not
express a very favorable opinion of
Henry Pehler, the Would-be Congress-
man. He said that he had served in
the Legislature with Mr.. PGhler and
| that Henry was not as much of Ger
man in those times as he processes to
be now. He says that he, Henry, put
up at Il high toned hotel and would not
associate with, or even look at, any Of
the German members, and thinks if
elected to Congress German. couldn't
touch him with Il forty-foot pole.
We are requested to announce by a
notice from the Secretary Of the Re-
publican State Central Committee, that
Hon. VIM. Window, will address the
citizens of st. Peter, and vicinity, Oct.
25th upon the political issues of the
day. MIR. Window is an able speaker
and those who desire to hear good solid
truths should go and hear him.
Every day we hear of grain stacks.
hay stacks and stables being burned by
prairie fires. Why do not our farmers
take time by the forelock and burn or
ploW around their exposed property?
1t would be the work of a few hours
only and would save them much pro-
perty and inconveniences.
The Republican Senatorial conven.
ton for this district met in Marshall
yesterday afternoon at o'clock, but
up to the hour we go to press we have
not heard who received the nomina-
ton. Hon. K. II. Helling, of Linden.
this county, was the most prominent
candidate before the convention and
no doubt carried off the prize.
The third of a series of letters on
the financial question from the pen Of
0. P. Champlin, of Sleepy Eye, appears
in this issue. The stand taken by Mr..
Champlin and the arguments produced
are certainly commendable, and his
letters should receive careful perusal
from every reader of the REVIEW.
The prairie fires are doing consider.
able damage in the western part of
this county. Last Saturday the stables,
grain and hay stacks. some live stock
and farmingkimplements of Mr.. Nc
Keen. in Burnstown, were destroyed,
also the large barn of Daniel Burns
situated about half mile from Burns
Station.
! The following from an exchange has
local application:

he has trusted the farmers to get
through the summer, and now comes
the trying time and many will exclaim,

take care Of your merchant. who has
clothed you and in many ways helped
you through the season, and thinks the
