GRANTING that there is just grounds for COM
plaint against the Millels association, which,
however, has not as yet been made to appear,
1T has no bearing upon the canvass of Mr..
Washburn. He has no interest in aud has
nothing TO do with this association and is in
no way responsible for its acts, or those of any
OF its agents.
It is almost time that the above sample
lie, which We quote from the Moorehead
4duocate, was stopped. The Republican
papers are constantly shouting it, and though
every one knows it is lie, the newspapers
will reiterate it so often that they will begin
to believe their own falsehood. Mr.. Wash
burn has greater interest in the Millers'
Association than any other one man, because
the great Washburn mills are the largest in
the State. He bases his lie on the small
bubble that his partners hold the formal
membership in the Association. Both
the Washburn A, and the Washburn
B mills have memberships in the Associ-

Mr.. Crosby for the other on the books of the
Association. The profits of the swindle

PERFECT ACGURACY,

A committee of Hennepin county farmers
controlled by the same prejudices AS Mr..
Hodges, fully believing with him that they
were being cheated by the little brass tester in
the weighing Of wheat, have made :. formal
trial OF the little brass bucket, testing it by the
standard scale and half bushel. United States
government seal, IN possession OF Hennepin
county, and found that the little brass bucket
is perfectly accurate measure and the at
tached scale or beam perfectly accurate in its
weighing Of the wheat.-l0 ionssr Press.
The "perfect accuracy proven is visible
only to the editor of the p. P. From the
files of that paper we find that the tests al
luded to by it resulted as follows:
At the Arctic mill
The little joker, 52115 and 52A pounds per
bushel.
On common grocers' scale, 81 pounds per
At the Holley mill
The little joker, 5915 pounds per bushel.
On grocers scale, 81 pounds per bushel. Lar

At the Anchor mill

These differences appear to be triAing, but
if they occur al the line Of demerkation be
tween grades they actually make differ
ence of from eight to twenty cents per
bushel. So that, by knocking off quarter
OF L round in the weight of buss.el-re-
dncing it from No. 2 to No. 3 grade
the swindling brass kettle takes from
the farmer thirteen cents bushel, which,
on load of forty bushels, makes differ
ence of foe d0zlars and teoenty cents. Few
farmers will care to submit to such loss
without protest. It should be borne in
mind, too, that the test above recorded was
made under circumstances the most favor
able to the instrument, the manipulators
knowing that it was on trial for
its existence. That they can make
it nearly accurate no one doubts,s but

ToM EWING is sanguiIe of the future of
the National party, and predicts that it will
work revolution in the other OF CARNATIONS,
though it's power must be exercised by
union with either the Democratic or the Re-
publican party. It is in the power of the
Democl attic party, he holds, to control their
vote by wise policy in opposition to forced
resumption and the ruinous schemes OF the
money power. Mr.. Ewing places the issue
squarely before the people when he states
that the vital questions of the day are the re-
peal of the resumption act and the substi-
tuition of greenbacks for national bank
notes.

TIE Law AND THE PROPHETS o,

TIE LA,V AND THE PROPHETS ON
THE SWINDLING BRASS KETTLES.
There were in olden times just such de-
ceitful and unjust measures as the little
brass kettle now in use by the Minneapolis
Millers association. The farmers in Moses
time protested against being swindled 10y
such contrivances, and their protest was
heard on high. This was the law enacted for
their protection, and promulgated in the
35th and Both verses of the nineteenth chap
ter Of Leviticus:
Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment,
| IN meteyard, in weight, in measure.
Just balances just weights, just ephah,
and just hin, shall we have; I am the Lord
Your God, which brought you out of Ihe land
of Egypt.
Again the command is emphasized iDthe
book of Deuteronomy, for we find written in
the thirteenth, fourteenth, fifteenth and SIX
tenth verses of the twenty-ffth chapter
these words:
Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers
weights a great and small.
In0u shalt not have In thine house divers
measures. great and a small.
But thou shalt have perfect and just weight
that thy days may be heightened in the land
which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
For all that do such tn ngs and all that do
unrl hteously are an abomination to the Lord
thy God.
Again we find Solomon condemning the
swindling brass kettle in the most unmeas-
ured terms. In his Proverbs he says:
false balance is abomination to the Lord
but just weight IS his delight.
just weight and balance are the Lords: all
the weights of the bag are his work.
Divers weights, and divers measures, both
OF them are alike abomination to the Lord.
Divers weights are an abomination unto the
Lord; and false balance is not good
The prophet Micah unquestionably cast
his horoscope in the right direction, and in
| his vision of tie future saw Washburn and
tho Minneapolis wheat ring grown fat and
rich through plundering the farmers. Here
| is what he said of such men:
| Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in
| the house of the wicked, and the scant measure
| that is abominahle2
| Shall count them pure with the wicked bal.
| ances, and with the bag IF deceitful weights
| For tn. rich men thereof are full of violence
| and the Inhabitants thereof have spoken lies,
and their tongue is deceitful in their mouth
These are the words of the law and the
prophets as applied to Washburn and his
swindling brass kettle. Condemnation could
come from no higher source-could not be
moro emphatic. Who will be found with the
temerity to defend them WHEN heaven itself
has spoken in their reproof?

P1NcHBAcH has good deal better sense,
and can see into the future with much
clearer vision than many of his Unframed
brethren. He declares that Grant as Presi-
Dental candidate is stronger now than he
will be year hence, and he does not think
he will be this choice of the party. He is
undoubtedly correct. Unless the Grant
blowers and strikers can get up a fresh en-
thusiasm just previous to the Republican ma
tional convention which shall last until the
work of that body is complete, their hopes
will be doomed to disappointment.

A RADICAL in the Hungarian diet on Satur-
day protested against hosting the yellow and
black flag, which he declared symbolized
unity with Austria, and which was not recog-
nized by the Hungarian constitution. The
fellow must be q good deal of a fool. AS
well might the Irish claim that they were not
united to England, or the Poles that they are
not part of Russia. Austria and Hungary
are essentially one people, and all the TO fish
speeches and protests against recognizing the
fact will not alter it.

much az five or six pounds to the bushel is
the chief objection to its use urged by the
farmers. This fact, however, is its chief ex-
cellence in the eyes of the wheat ring aud its
defenders. They do not want an unvaryino
standard of weight and measurement. An
honest tester would not suit their purpose;
hence their affection for the one now in use.-

An endless amount of dissatisfaction e1-
lists among the farmers throughout the State
owing to the manner of grading wheat and
the prices paid for this great staple. Wheat
growers in general are in open rebellion
against the ''tester'' used by warehousemen
in determining the grade of wheat. There
is, evidently, serious wrong somewhere.

whats amiss?" I asked in a faint
voice. And it seemed that whole
Chorus of voices answered me:
"Dolly's lost!''
''Dolly lost!;' Just for moment my
heart turned sick. Then some instinct,
like ray OF light and hope, seized upon
me. Pulling the coat off the face of the
child I held, I lifted the little sleeping
thing to the light and saw Dolly!
Eyes, sir. The child I had saved was
no other than my own-my httle Dolly.
And l knew that Gods good angels had
guided me to save her, and that the first
flash of the summer lightning had shone
just at the right moment to show me
where she lay. 1t was her white sun
bonnet that had caught my eye, My
darling it was, and none other, that l had
picked up on the drenched road.
Dolly, anxious for her doll, had wan
dered out unseen to meet me in the after
noon. For some hours she was not
missed. It CHANGED that my two eldest
girls had gone over to our nearest neigh
bor's, and my wife, missing tile child
just afterward, took it for granted she was
with them.
The little one had gone on and on, until
night and the storm overlook her, when
she fell down frightened and utterly ex
hausted. I thanked Heaven aloud before
them all, sir, as said that none but God
and His holy angels had guided me to
her. It's not much Of story to listen to,
sir. I am aware OF that. But often
think Of it in the long nights, lying
awake; and L ask myself how could
bear to live on now, had run away from
the poor little cry in the road, hardly
louder than squirrels chirp, and left my
child to die rs
Yes, sir, you are right; that's Dolly out
yonder with her mother, picking fruit;
the little trim figure in pinkwith just
the same scrt of white sun-bonnet On her
head that she wore that night ten years
ago. She is a girl that is worth saving,
sir, though say it; and God knows that
as long as my life lasts I shall be thank
ful that / came on home that night in
stead of staving in the town.--Erchange
