The Worthington advance. [volume] (Worthington, Minn.) 1874-1908, 1884-12-18

1IuNOI OuAOu NcWS. Chlue OuI mere
two weeks ago, and to my surprise
found that the Union News had found
its way out here in this "God-fOrsaken
country" rs so many call 1t. but only
by those who never have been away
from home very far. 1T least not here.
l have Travelled through twenty-five
different states and l never found any
place where the soil surpassed this Of
MIMI, as far rs l have been through
the State, and am told that it is so
all over. After this country gets set.
tied up once it certainly will be the
garden SPOT of the world; for the rea-
son that it is all garden it DONE make
any difference where you liant your
truck it will grow and not only grow
but yield the same.
They can raise twice as much Of ev-
cry thing. KaZ Zaisa in Ohio, I. thiutsss ezs.
cept corn: we can beat them some. l>ut
not so very much. My brother has /.
red beet that measures % inches in cir
cumferencs and feet high barefoeted,
and Strawberries that measured 64 in
ches in circumference, and many other
things in proportion. In stock it is
the same way. John killed hogs last
week, born the End of April, that aver
aged over 800 pounds and one Is
months old over 600 pounds. There
were five Of us tried to hang it but
failed, so we had to put up a pulley and
take 4 yoke of cattle to hang u hog. If
Ohio can beat this will give up and
treat.
Inever found any place where met
better people than here, clever and
kind. l have seen but one drunken
man since am here. and I hear very
little swearing. Yours,
J. J. Hansberger.
THE CONSPIRACY AGAINST BEECHER.
A n. Y. telegram says:
Mr.. Beecher was asked to day if he
cared to say anything in regarl to the
death Of Mr.. Francis ID. MOnlton, and
he said: Don't you see that this is Il
very delicate subject for me to speak
upon? | 1conld Say many kind things
of Mr.. Moulton, but some things not
complimentary. l remember the max
i'm: De 'oortis nil nisi bonuns. Then,
why say anything? His hand was
raised against me, but he could not
help. lie had committed himself in
the conspiracy against me and was
compelled to take the stand he did.
know from good sources that he has
regretted his action since that time.
lie had many strong points in his char.
acter. The real truth of that great
conspiracy against me has never been
given to the public. Mr.. Moulton held
many papers, documents and letters
that have never been produced.
know full well the underlying re ,sons
for this conspiracy, but in evidence
could not p:Ove them. Many things
that one knows to be true he canrot
prove. may speak more fully on Mr..
Moulton later. [ may tell what 1
know some day."
Mr.. Beecher onght to give the true
inwardness Of the Brooklyn scandal.
Don't die, Mr.. Beecher, and make no
sign. Let us have it.
The WOrtllington Record has chang
Ell hands and will hereafter be con-
Quoted by Pomp Mccormack as Il re-
publican paper. Worthington is one
of the kind of towns that can tolerate
nothing democratic. 1t is an unplO-
gressive, dead town. 1t was early set
tied 10y Il bigoted class of people. and is
known as the most intolerant town il,
southwest Minnesota. There is u ira.
dition amongst its people that should 4
business man advertise anything like
literally, lie is sure to break up. The
Record has been a good democratic pa
per and Pomp will make it good re-
publican paper, but we are nightly
mistaken if he can coax any large
amount of patronage out of Worthing-
ton People.-Rock Rapids Review.
There are some good home thrusts in
the above, but there are also state
ments calculated to mislead. That
there IS pretty large unprogressive,
bigoted, intolerant element here is
true, but it is Offset by an excellent
class of liberal-minded, progressive
men. The only pity is that the impro
gressive element should have so mucl,
influence. Breaks are good things to
the train, but when they are continual.
ly applied, or when they insist that
they are the engine and the steam both,
and that they were specially delegated
by the Almighty to run the train, you
can see that the cars will not move on
smoothly and rapidly. If we could ex.
change one half of our breaks for one.
half more steam, Worthington would
be tiptop town. IT, make the ex.
change the ADVANCE is laboring. 1t
is sure to come. Worthington has pro.
gressed great deal in the last few
years, and is now crouching for a gi-
gantic spring forward. The moss
backs will be left far in the rear before
long, and the element which proscribes
man because of his creed or his tenn
perance views, will 60 about bemoan-
ing the loss of the place they once oc-
cupied.
