A casual glance through the county
buildings this week convinced US that
all the officers were busy with their re-
spective duties, especially SO the treas
urer and his ASSISTANTS. During the
present week farmers by the score have
thronged the latter's Office, anxious to
pay their taxes before the last day OF
grace expires on next Monday. Thurs
day forenoon perfect jam occurred and
each man had to stand in line and take
his turn, some being obliged to wait FOL
hours. The receipts have averaged
fully $4,000 day, and the next three
days the rush will be greater than ever
Mr.. Evans, the treasurer, has three as
sistants. The registers Office presented
live spectacle also, as a great many
who have deeds or mortgages to RECORD
wait until taxpaying time and then xii
two birds with one stone. The auditor
and his assistants were also busy as wei
as Judge Mead, while Clerk Of Cour
Durkee was employed at tho cour'
rooms. 1t would be difficult to find any
more competen5 sud obliging set o.
county officers than Blue Earth county

An Electrophone.

Mr.. James w. Wright, of this city, has
invented an ingenious electrophone that
gives promise of taking the place OF
telephones, and the experiments SO far
indicate that it will prove a lucky tinan.
cial success to its inventor. 1t is simple
and possesses advantages over other ma,
chimes of its kind in numerous ways. 1,
does not get out of repair easily, and
whispers can be heard for distance o.
eight or ten feet from the apparatus
So far, the workings Of the machine have
been more than satisfactory, and We hope
it may meet the most sanguine anticipa
tons of the inventor and that he may
receive the reward he deserves for hi.
study and industry in bringing forth 81
useful and convenient an instrument.

Wealth Unemployed.

MankatO possesses considerable pri-
vats wealth distributed somewhat un-
evenly around. Everybody knows this,
and everybody knows that the majority
Of this wealth is securely locked up in
bonds and other equal available securi-
ties that does no one any particular
good, either directly or indirectly, ex-
cept its possessors. And everyone won
ders why the possessors of this boarded
wealth do not put portion of it into
some kind Of manufacturing industry
that will not only benefit themselves
directly, but the city indirectly. There
seems to bc any number of avenues
open for such investments, but they are
more numerous than the dispositions
are to employ them. OF course there is
no law compelling person owning
either property or money to use it un'
less he sees tit, but when opportunities
present themselves, affording good divi.
dcnds upon the capital invested, we do
not clearly understand why those who
have the means do not embrace these
chances instead Of being satisfied with
only meager interest. There are u
number of towns in our State that do
not have one half the natural facilities
which Mankato possesses, yet are BOOM
ing along with manufactures, and
other industries promoted through the
activity aud enterprise of their wide
awake and energetic citizens, while if
half the same energy was displayed by
the capitalists of Mankato, we would
shortly have the liveliest and most
promising city in the State outside Of
Minneapolis and st. Paul. These are
facts that cannot be denied and have
often been admitted.
We may idly dream Of the suspicious
future that is gradually unfolding be-
fore us by the almost certain building of
several more railroad lines, but with all
the railroad facilities possible, we can
not make our town what it should be
unless We have other enterprises in con-
nection with them.

Our double-faced, double .turreted,
friend of the Reoie,c,
is wrought up to fever heat over little
statement of facts made in the last FREE
PRESS regarding the city printing. He
knows that the bids were entirely diff
ferent by the two establishments and it
was simply impossible to tell which was
the lowest, and all the special pleading,
quibbling and rehearsing all the techni-
cal printing phrases on the calendar,
and all the Ananias disceunting he can
indulge in will make sensible and un-
prejudiced person know what he il
talking about. The man may succeed
in convincing old maids and grass
widows that he is all peaches and
cream, but if they will engage in the
printing business and come in contact
with him and not give him the turkey
and keep the buzxard or keep the buz
gard and give him the turkey, they viii
find him vinegar and pspper.grass ant
containing regular conglomeration o
back scratching prOclivities.

Something Wrong About Froights

Notwithstanding the recent unwar-
rantcd raise Of freight rates by the rail
road companies there seems to be a
small African in the wood-pile that is
only discernible by casual observa
ton. Just previous to the pool most of
our heavy shippers patronized the Mil
waukee road, whereas, now they have all
Of sudden without any demonstration
whipped around and are patroniEing al,
most wholly the Chicago & Northwest
crn road. There may be nothing amiss
in this except personal inclination, but
it looks somewhat strange at the sudden
turn. The better way for our merchants
to do is to form Il combination and say
to the railroad companies, we will guar
antee all our freights for one year to the
road that will give US the best rates
Such proceeding would be perfectly
Legitimate and insure better rates thar
they otherwise would get. Mankato il
of such size now as to warrant de
mand of protection from the corpora
tons, and they would undoubtedly &c
it if they were unanimous in asking.
