Jordan Advocate, Patronize home
industries! The country is flooded
with vendors of all kinds of wares,
from brass tipped, indestructlble
lamp wick, to "the best imported wool
sn goods for only fifty cents a yard"
and half dozen times day the front
door is besieged by some person who
is very DESTROYS of chance of sta
king your order for some article which
he eloquently tries to convince you is
indispensable" to you. Patronize
your home dealers and manufacturers
when they can give you fair
prices and a better article than any of
these itiperant hawkers, and you also
have the satisfaction of knowing who
you are dealing with.
Morris is bound to grow. There can
be no doubt about it. Her supremacy
over other places i'll this part of the
State is already established and she
will have no difficulty in keeping the
lead. There is enough of capital and
business enterprise concentrated with
in her limits not only to do the bust
ness centering here but to attract still
greater capital and to do still greater
amounts of business. Railway facili-
ties are doing and will continue to do
much for our thriving village. We
now have two distinct lines of road
and there is an excellent prospect for
,wo mofe az no distant day. The ST.
Cloud and Lake Traverae road will no
ioubt be built and road from Apple
on through Morris and Fergus Falls
o Fargo, we believe is only ques-
ion of time. When this is brought
sbout Morris will have to leave off her
childish village ways and assume the
lightly and proportions of city.
All located here will have the advan-
age of competing roads and Compel
ng markets and all that is to be
bought can be purchased at the cheap
st possible rate and all that is to be
odd can be disposed of most advanta-
seously. For these reasons farms
lere will be doubly valuable. Persons
linking of selling out here to go west
ind settle at a point upon some one
inc of railway where they will be at
he mercy Of q single corporation and
hose wishing to purchase real estate
n locality with promising future
hould occasionally ponder over these
points.
In a recent discourse under the |
reading Of intellectual strength Rev.
r. P. Hutchinson spoke as follows:
Intelligence is thing to be desir-
d. knowledge SHOULD be eagerly
oveted, 1t should be sought after as
nen dig after hidden treasure. The
Intellect needs to be cultivated. 1t re-
Iuires to be exercised But let it be
a great intellect can be a
,reat curse as well as a great blessing. |
t can transform a garden into 2 will |
Ierness and change 2 ssm}ii!ling plain
nto battle field. 1t can transform |
peaceful citizens into yindictive war
iors, and turn the current Of ciyiliza-
ion into q stream of bloody warfare.
70 one doubts that Napoleon posses
ed noble mind. But his intellectu-
j power has not been u blessing to
europe. 1t has been a curse. What |
s wanted is an enlightened conscience
n connection with mental power. In
,ther words the religion which re-

Thege Is one who is presented to us
n the Billie. He keen, cold, smart.
he has q keen perception and im-
intellectual power, But ha las
Intelligence atone. 'Ho has no f4e'i""'

t has died within him. He knows no
for the finer chords of his
nature have lost their scnsi,ivcncss

g intelligence alone. He does not
owe. He knows no pity. He has not
