Circulars, printed in the Skandina-
Wan language, showing the record of
Hon. Knute Nelson while in congress
and giving his views upon the inspec-
ton and grading, are being circulated
in the county by o. G. Hanson, secre-
tary of the Blaine and Logan club.
Mr.. Nelson's record is one of which
any one might we'll feel prond and his
ideas upon the present unsatisfactory
method ofhandling wheat are sensible
and sound. These circulars are
worthy of careful reading.
The attention of our local para
grapher has been called to some of
the vegetables produced by A. Steh-
bins of the township of Walden in
Pope county, One of his turDips
weighed over I4lbs. 1t is said that in
his celler can be seen as fine Il collec-
ton and as great II variety of vegeta-
bles as can be found anywhere, Mr..
Stebbins work simply proves the fact
that gardening is profitable in this
country and that soil and climate is
remarkably well adapted to vegetable
growing.
1t is has been reported 10y reliable
parties that the Democratic managers
are printing and circulating great
number of tickets tor the sole purpose
Of embarrassing Republican voters.
1t is said that they are printing Re-
publican tickets with the names of
Republicans upon them who are not
candidates, to circulate in Republic
can towns and thus rob Republican
candidates of votes to which they are
entitled and are resorting to other
dishonorable schemes of like nature.
a party or candidates who will resort
to such tactics should he sat down up-
on,
a talk with local dealers ELECTS a
few curious facts in regard to pur-
chasers of -four. Strange as it may
appear, many consider only the price
and seem to be controlled Ivy the mis-
apprehension that costly flour is
necessarily of excellent quality. A
few days ago a prominent lady eff this
city entered one of our groceries and
enquired for flour. When questioned
as to the kind wanted, she asked,
(which is most costly?" The grocer
answered the question and the lady
said, 'send up sack of that kind"
1t is a fact that many of the best mills
have reduced the prices of the various
grades of -four manufactured by them
to correspond with the present low
prices of wheat, while others and
many of them inferior ones, still
maintain the high prices of the past.
From this it can be readily seen those
who think only of cost in selecting
flour and buy only that for which the
highest price is asked, are simply
paying old time prices for an ordinary
grade while better flour can be bought
for less money.
In carrying out their rally last Sat
urday evening, local cal Democracy la
bored under various difficulties. AT
ter getting the torches intended for
the Republican demonstration and
making all preparations t9 eXhaust
themselves, they fiGst encountered the
front end of a generous ra1nstorm. In
spite of this, though, with the aid of
some artificial inspiration, they pa
raded. They couldn't find men
enough to carry all their torches, but
they did very well. That is very well
for them. Their next difficulty was
the lateness of the l.. f. g. d. train
which prevented Mr. baxter and Mr..
Wilkinson ffonl reacIling here and
left MIR. Campbell with the whole
evenings entertainment upon his
hands. A fair sized audience assem-
bled in Berkin's Hall and this worthy
gentlemag n!!adlss' I ! very gaod spee9h.
Of course thlYsc who pronounce itveryI
good, judgr it from a Democratic point
ofview. His arguments were Of the
stereotyped Democratic kind, which
have been exploded hundreds of times,
