he said with II big grin. the queen
laughed and assured him that thcy

after which he walked Off as if fearing

County orders bought at this Office
Worthington ADVANCE.
In as much as this is the first instance
in the history of American journalism
in which a country editor has had lili-
cient means to speculate in anything
but the necessaries CT life, no evidence
is needed to prove that Mr.. Ward paid
4 good price for the perverted express
ion of Bro. Miller's ''private opinions"
-Luverne Herald.
You see, the Herald and the Wor-
Ellington Journal didn't charge enough
for their support of Dunnell. The Jour-
nal got about $50 and we suppose the
Herald got about the same. The Jour-
nal did about $50 worth of election
printing and ours footed up about $3.50.
We 'knew beforehand" and ''said so
all along" and told them so" that they
didn't know how to make money out
of the business. 1t takes the big AD-
VANCE" to do that.
By-the-way, will the Herald please
tell us what Rock County orders are
worth? We want about $500 to 81 400
worth right off. And it the Herald
will sell it's orders on county printing
at a reasonable discount we will adj
vance the money as soon as the board
allows its bills.
Bro. Miller, in the last issue of his
excellent ADVANCE. gave very pretty
essay on Standardization" 1--WE knew
it beforehand" and have ''said so all a.
long" that Bro. Miller possesses rare
faculties for the production of good
things whenever he is disposed to let
loose the better powers of his intellect
and curb his tendencies toward the
''off'' side of matters political and 9TH
erWise.-Luverne Herald.
And we predict now beforehand and
shall say so all along, and when the
time is up we shall say 1--WE told YOU
So" that Bro. Miller of the Herald, if
he has the education and brains which
we hear he has, will in ten years be on
the ''off side" just as we are now, that
is, he will be in advance of his party in
politics and in advance of his church in
religious ideas. This is upon the pre-
sumption that he will groau, and we see
no good reason why he should not.
The owls and the asses will say he is
''eccentric" and the pig heads and
snobs will sometimes say he is s'luna-
tic" but he will have the glorious satis-
faction OF knowing that he is ahead.
and if he is true to himself and to his
work he will exert an influence hun
dred fold greater than that Of anv of
his narrOw.gauge critics.
