The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1880-07-15

The conduct of the delegates and
candidates at Pennington was in
strong and favorable contrast with
the action Of those at Waseca the
day before. In both conventions the
victorious candidates had small ma
jorities, but as soon as this was fairly
established, at Pennington, there was
an end to dissent and no exhibition
of spreheadism. Major Strait re-
ceived no heartier pledges of support
than those made by the two anti
Strait candidates, Cole and Chan
der. As matter of opinion we
still think that either of the last
named gentlemen would have hon.
ored their district in Congress more
truly than the candidate chosen, but
they are no longer in the race. We
must decide whether to bear with
meekness the mild yoke of the ur-
bane purveyor of offices in this dis
trict or to 60 over to the enemy. So
long as no charge of fragrant dishon-
esty or incompetency in the Repub-
lican candidate is maintained, our
duty as members of that party is
plain enough.

The First district Congressional
convention, held at Wsseca, July It'll,
resulted in an unfortunate split. The
attempt of the chairman of the dis
trict committee to dictate the organ
ization caused the anti-Dunnell dele
gates to organize separate conven-
ton in the same hall, and so two
conventions were held With officers
on the same platform. One conven-
ton nominated Dunnell, and the
anti-Dunnell delegates united on w.
G. Ward, of Waseca. AS there is
little probability of either of these
candidates surrendering the field to
his opponent, the only way out of
the difficulty will be for them to
withdraw in favor of some good
man on whom both factions can unite.

Corn In Minnesota.
Correspondence of Minneapolis Trib,


Correspondence of Minneapolis Tribune.
In a recent work, Charming for
Profit" by J. E. Read, it is said that
cas- a general rule the small Flint
corn with from eight to twelve rows
per ear is grown only in New Eng
land, Northern New York, Michigan,
Wisconsin and Minnesota" This
kind of corn used to be, and is prob
ably now, generally grown in New
England, and the inference is that it
is generally grown in Minnesota.
1t has been planted here especially
in the early settlements, and may be
now in some cases where planting is
late, but l do not know of single
farmer that now plants the "Flint,"
and think there is very little raised
in the State. The seed generally
planted is the large red or white
"Dent," and it would be hard to find
any finer corn than is here grown.
In fact, there is misconception
among our own people as we'll as
those of other States in regard to
corn growing in Minnesota.
Some years since, l was riding
from Rochester to Winona with
farmer from Indiana. He frankly
admitted that we could beat them on
wheat, but he said, 1--WE can beat
you on corn" l said nothing, but
watched him as we passed some fine
fields of ripening corn. The strug-
gle in his mind was evident, but
honesty finally triumphed, and he
yielded, saying, "You can beat us
on corn, too" And so we can.
In passing down through Iowa
last September to Cedar Rapids and
thence to Omaha, l saw no finer
fields of corn than l left at home.
And what surprised me was that
there the corn was struck by the
frost, while ours at home was still
green.
That there are poor fields of corn
grown in our State is true, and the
more shame to the man that grows
them. Such fields of corn are annu-
ally planted by men who are either
ignorant, lazy, or have "too many
irons in the fire." They allow their
manure to accumulate in heaps about
their stables aad the grass to grow
in their corn fields. "No excellence
without labor" is true in corn grow
ing as in everything else, and the
man who expects to grow good crops
without manuring his ground, l don't
care how rich he may think it, or
by iounging about town, will find
his crib untitled in the fall. j.

It Is the correspondent OF tho London
Times" through whose eyes we look.
but even he does not attempt 10 give n
complete account Of n play which, be-
ginning ut eight In the morning. con
tinues until Ave in the afternoon, with
m hours intermission. IL Is q series
Of symbolic tableaux from the Old Tes-
lament, followed by spoken scenes from
The New. The play is in two parts
the first opening with Christ's triumph
al entry into Jerusalem, and ending
with His betrayal and Imprisonment;
the second beginning with His trial,
aud ending with the resurrection.
The tableaux are symbelical, and
curiously illustrate the ingenuity Of the
playwright. Judas bride OF thirty
pieces Of silver Tor instance, is repre-
scented as typIned by the sale Of Joseph
by his brethren to the Midianites for
twenty pieces, and the scene Of the en-
try into Jerusalem is preceded by two
tableaux, OF the expulsion Of Adam and
Eve from Paradise, and the sacrifice Of
Isaac. They are all perfect Of their
kind.
Thc scenes in the life Of Christ which
ara portrayed are the S~anhedrim, taks
ing counsel against Christ tho parting
at Bethany; the last supper, which Ia q
perfect copy OF Leonardo,s great picture;
the appearance Of Christ before his
Judges; the bearing OF the cross, from
Paul veronese; the descent from the
cross, after Rubens; and the entomb-
ment, from Raphael.
II Is q peasant named Joseph MAR
who r~epresesents Christ. For twenty
minutes he 10 rigidly suspended, but
the stiffness Is not relaxed when he Ia
wrapped In the costly linen cloth by
Joseph Of Arimathea. Our observer
thinks PLATE to be, on the whole, the
best acted character in the play; and
after PLATE, Judas The scowls, the
visible avarice, the shoulder.jerkings,
the stealthiness, and the suspicious
face were admirable. and the haggling
for . higher price could hardly have
bssn surpassed by Shylock. Among
the other disciples, Peter was excellent,
and be and the rest were all carefully
studied from Da vinci's picture.
