There may be little ring around that
5000, and Mr.. B. may b inside the ring.
There are . number Of persons in Mime
sofa who have written her mp exceedingly
well, and they would like to bepaid for it.
They could make half dozen pamphlets
that would contain q great many valuable
statistics, and other highly interesting I'M
migration information. It is too late in the
afternoon Of the nineteenth century to talk
about pamphlet as an immigration docu-
ment for 1873. The only judicious and
proper way Of advertising Minnesota ct this
late day-with the limited means at hand
ls by series Of concise & arh-
cles through the newspaper unions
of the United States, to reach the smaller
towns and the rural districts, and the metro
poitan papers, to catch the attention Of
the dwellers in the large cities. This
pamphlet humbug wouldn't bring an immi-
grant to Minnesota in thousand years, and
if it did, he would very likely be disap-
pointed on the strength of it. Mime
sofa is good enough to tell the truth
about her, and to tell it pointedly and have
done with it. She don't need dose OF
rigmarole pamphlet just yet. The tide is
tending in this direction already, and little
judicious encouragement might help to swell
the wave; but $1,000 worth Of doubtful
pamphlet wouldn't help Minnesota's immi-
grafton interests ninety mine cents worth.

JOHN SHERMANyS THREAT.

OOHN OHEktMANIS 1AkExCA1s
There seems to be no limit to the desire
of John Sherman to ruin the business in
terests Of the country. His plan of forced
resumption leaves its daily trail of financial
wrecks from one end of the land to the
other. We have been getting down to hard
pan for several years, but as the LIST of Jan
uary, 1873, draws nigh the bottom of the pan
continues to recede, and there is constantly
increased room made for the entrance
of the miserable victims. Not content with
all which he has accomplished, Sherman es-
says still more mighty job, and in his inter-
view with the House committee on Monday
he announced that if the National Banks
did not aid in his forced resumption scheme
the government will "precipitate their over
throw"
We can conceive greater calamities for the
country than the retirement of National
Banks, but whenever, if ever, that is done
considered change in our general
banking system. The violent and sudden
overthrow of the National Banks of the
country by the effort to force resumption il
altogether another matter, and the sugges-
ton of the financial pirate al
the head of the Treasury Department.
is one calculated to fill every
business man with alarm. It demonstrates
that unless Congress repeals the resumption
act, John Sherman will halt at nothing
The ruin and distress which we have wit
try, will be as nothing compared with what
is in store, unless Congress takes this pirate
by the throat and compels him to release
his grasp.

BRING ON THE IMMIGRANTS.

Minnesota needs population, needs men
and women to gather her untold wealth of
soil and forest and mine. We have again
and again called atenttion to the importance
of this subject. We urged on the Legisla-
ture suitable appropriation, because we
believed the best interests of the State could
be subserved thereby. The suitable appro-
priation was not made, and so we must
