test part of it. At least it is SO
with one we have in our possession.

The frame is "a thing of beauty,

A couple of weeks since an item
appeared in the Princeton UNION, and
was copied into the St. Cloud Journal.
Press, advising farmers not to hanl
any more wheat to Elk River. as thew
could not dispose of it. Now, we can
hardly believe that either of those
journals would maliciously circulate =
false hood, and the only way we can
explain the fact of such an item an.
pearing in the UNION is that the editor
was misinformed. There was = t;me
when the railroad would not shin anv
wheat to Minneapolis, as there was NJ
place to store it, but the blockade was
only temporary, and there has not
been time this season when wheat
would not find a ready market at Elk
River, We trust the editors of the
UNION and Journal. Press will have the
fairness to state this fact to thei,
readers.-Elk River Star.
If the editor of the Star will look
over the back files Of his paper he will
find whence we derived our inform
alton. n, -
