MODERN SocIALIsM-It is not generally
known that the late John Stuart Mill, perhaps
The ablest OF modern writer's on political and
social science, commenced in the year 1869 a
book on Socialism, which, If it had been com
pieted, would probably have been recognized
as the greatest of his worke. Manuscript
chapters of the incomplete work have recently
been brought to light, and are found so nearly
complete IN themselves, and so ably to discuss
questions now most prominent In the public
thought, that London Review, and also The
Library Magazine OF New York are publishing
them. They are announced to appear in book
form on April 25th, published by the American
BOOK Exchange, New York. The price, post
paid, in cloth, will be 80 cents, or IN paper 25
cents. II is work which all students OF po-

usual manner by the missionaries.
There are great number of native teachers
and young girls in the mission stations, who
attend schools daily, and on Sundays 20 to
divine service, some in full European cos
tunes, others in long flowing robes Of cot
ton or muslin, and some even in the usual
red blankets, with their faces frightfully dis
figured by red paint. These latter are in
minority, and are generally looked down up
on by their more civilized neighbors, by
whom they are called the "wild Kafirs.''
Among the heather portion the necessary
number of cattle is turned over by the
bridegroom to the father of the bride, who
is forthwith given as q receipt, and no fur
ther marriage rites are deemed necessary.
Chiefs are universally respected. Not a
single instance of infdelity to one is known.
A Kaffir will willingly sacrifice all his worldly
possessions or lay down his life for his chief.
Each tribe has one great chief, who takes
rank by hereditary descent, and several petty
chiefs. The native dress of the Kaffirs-
worn alike by both sexes-is simply red
blanket, made of coarse cloth, covering the
shoulders and reaching nearly to the ground.
A man invariably carries an assegal OF spear,
with which he often kills the wild buck which
abound in every forest.

If the statements contained in the formal
report of the accusers of the De Broglie
ministry are true, France was evidently on
the verge of a revolution that threatened to
overturn the republic. It is alleged that
plans had been placed on foot for the pur
pose of establishing dictatorship with
MacMahon at its head. They had SO far
matured that dispatches had been sent to
the military commanders informing them
that they might be called upon for active
service at any moment. This was perhaps
only precautionary measure, however,
prompted by fear of an uprising, inspired
by the exacting condition of affairs about
that time. It is perhaps fortunate that cir
oumstances conspired to force resignation
upon the marshal president just at the juno
ture that it did.

THE STATE FAIR,

1t is now fully settled that all the State, ex-
cept Minneapolis, will unite in making a
grand Minnesota State Fair on the first week
of next September. St. Paul endeavored to
secure the cooperation of her sister city in
making State Fair, but Bill King, of Min
neapolis, peremptorily declined. She would
listen to nothing but the abandonment of
the State organization and the holding of
her local fair at Minneapolis the present
year. o. course st. Paul would concede no
such terms, and all negotiations are at an end.
st. Paul has no local interest 10 serve in
this matter. She has no more interest in
the State Fair than the citizens of the State
generally. 1t is State society which pro-
p ,ses to hold State Fair at st. Paul the first
week in September and st. Paul welcomes
the State organization to her borders. In SO
doing We wish to remind the people of the
State that it is not local, St. Paul, affair.
1t is matter in which the whole State is in
terested, and while St. Paul will do her full
share, the State should join actively in the
matter. 1t is the peoples fair. It belongs
to no one locality IN the State, but to every
locality. The way to make it
success is to have every To-
cality contribute something. The coming
contest is not war between st. Paul and
Minneapolis. There is and can be no such war
on this fair question. Bill King arrays him
self against the entire State in his determi.

same week announced by the State organiza-
ton for their fair at St. Paul. st. Paul
simply stands by the State organization,
against which Mr.. King is waging bitter
and relentless war. Whatever war there is.
is between Minneapolis and the entire re-
mainder of the State. St. Paul will stand bv
the State as she always does, but in no event
will she engage in a local war. ST. Paul asks
the State to join with her in making an ex-
position worthy Of the greatest agricultural

81. PAUL As a MANUFACTURING
POINT.
In the Minneapolis department. of Satur-
days issue of VIM. s. Kings paper we find
the following item:
The millers are rejoicing over a perceptible
rise of water in the canal, and with little
more will be able to convert the largely in
creased receipts of wheat into -four, without a
particle of difficulty.
Though the matter has been kept exceed
ingly quiet, it is nevertheless the fact that
for year past the boosted water power at
St. Anthony Falls has proved entirely insult
ficient to transact the business of the mills
already erected there, and it is idle to talk of
increasing the milling capacity of Mime
apolis with water as the reliance for motive
power. We say this not in disparagement
of Minneapolis and her wonderful milling
enterprises, but simply record the fact that
the capacity of the water power is exhausted,
and for year past the mills have not been
able to work their full capacity. Mime
apolis, herself, must resort to steam power
if she increases her mills, as she undoubtedly
will.
With these facts before us, there is no
reason why st. Paul should longer assume
that she cannot compete in the matter of
manufactures with any other point in the
State. When reliability, control and per-
manency is considered, steam power is more
advantageous than water. With the estab-
lishment of the boom and building of large
saw mills here, the problem of cheap fuel is
settled at once, and there is no reason why
st. Paul should not offer as inviting field
for capital to engage in manufacturing
enterprises as any other point in the country.
Besides this the construction of short link
of railroad will enable coal to be laid down
in st. Paul, delivered at manufacturing es-
Establishments, for $3.50 per ton, and the next
movement on the part of St. Paul should be
to secure this cheap fuel. Cleveland, Ohio,
has sprung from city smaller than st. Paul
to population of 100000, and the impetus
was railroad connection with coal mines in
the interior of the State, giving her fuel for
manufacturing purposes at the figures
named above as within reach of this city.
We possess the railroad facilities which fix
orr commercial supremacy for all time to
come, but to complete our greatness, we need
to add manufacturing upon large scale,
upon scale commensurate with the COM
meroial center of this great region of coun-
try. The mistake which has been made has
been the assumption that steam could not
compete with the water power at Minneapo-
LIS. Already steam mills are operating at
Minneapolis in direct and successful compe-
tltion with the water power, and but a few
years will elapse before the largest mills in
that city will be run by steam power. It is
time for st. Paul to buckle on her manufac-
turing armor and enter the lists as a great
manufacturing as well as commercial center.

One curious fact has been brought to
light owing to the death of Bayard Taylor.
He was known to own several shares of the
stock of the New York Tribune company
$4,000 per share, and hence the claim that
his family had been left in poverty was
waive with incredulity. It has TRANSFERRED
however, that since Mr.. Greeley's death the
stock of the Tribune has deprecated from
$4,000 to less than 81, 500 share, fact

are also reared, but generally for sale to set

when under the influence of drink, is both

the hardest and most mental work is

Isaac Staples Stock Farm.

In company with genial Matt Clark We en-
joyed pleasant visit, Saturday, to Isaac
Staples stock farm, where the fast flyers are
located. To one who has never visited this
large farm comprising over 300 acres,
with its large ana commodious build
ings, constructed for the purpose of keeping
and raising all kinds of stock, genuine
surprise is in store. visit to this farm is
well worth the trouble incurred and the WIS.,
itor beholds what is designed to be one of
the finest stock farms in the Northwest.
The first building to be visited is the one
containing the flyers. It is spacious struc-
ture forty feet by seventy feet and arranged
for comfort and convenience, each horse
having box stall.
In this building are the running horses
DArtigan, g. s., 6 years old, with record of
l:42115; Gov. Neptune, b. s., years old, who
beat Mollie McCarty in Minneapolis in a
two and quarter mile race; Athtestane, b. g.,
3 years old; Florence Payne, g. M, years
old; Lucy Morrison, years old, half sister
of Florence; Thornton Moore, G. c., years
old, and Lucy Lee, 8. NJ, years cid, who is
not fitting this season.
Gov. Neptune, Athlestaine, Florence Payne
and Lucy Morrison are entered for the
Nv Aou1S nuu OI1C6SO races lQoS0 horses
are in fair condition after their winter rest
and promise well for the coming seasons
work.
Mr.. Staples has at present but two trotte,s
Kitty Cook and Queen of Diamonds.
Kitty Cook has improved wonderfully since
last year and is much better than when
brought here last spring. Queen of Dia-
monds is the chestnut mare which Mr..
Staples has lately purchased, and she has
been handled sufficiently by her driver to
warrant him in saying that she will make
her mark.
This barn also contains the three stations
Guide, Bismarck and Shaw. The horses all
show good care and careful grooming.
South OF this building is another the same
size, which contains the mich COWS, colts
and other horses, and is perfect labyrinth
of stalls judiciously arranged.
West of it is similar building for STALL
fed cattle. Opening from the yard which
lncloses this building are seven box stalls,
24x32 feet, one for each of the running
horses, in which they are allowed to exercise.
Besides these large barns, there are several
smaller buildings-graneries, sleeping
houses, etc. Everything about the farm
shows systematical arrangement.
To those who have q desire to visit the
farm Mr.. Henry Quickenfal is always at
home" He is pleasant gentleman, and
will gladly point out the interesting features
OF the farm and the good points of the
horses.
