Grasping at the Last Ray of Hope.

Gen. Bishop, president of the St.
Cloud, Mankato & Austin railroad COM
pany, is now in the East, where he was
called on business connected with that
road. Whether it will be built this season
is still undetermined. Gen. Bishop, be-
fore he left, was impressed with the belief
that the road will be built, and that is the
impression prevailing. among his immedi,
ate friends and associates-at least that
portion between St. Cloud and Mankato.
That Mr.. Hill owns the franchises, there
is very little doubt, and its fate is largely
in his hands. 1t has been said that the
road would be built if some company
could be secured to operate it, but with
the St. Paul & Milwaukee, the Rock Is
land. Northwestern and other large cor
porations projecting branches in that
direction, there ought to be no hesitancy
on that score. A few weeks more, now
ever. will determine this matter possibly

FARMER STATE CONVENTION,

The Burdick Resolutions, Calling Farm
ers' State Convention, were unanimously
endorsed by 1875 Leading Farmers of Clay
County:
Whereas, 1t is patent to all intelligent
people that there are gross and unbear-
able evils and abuses connected with the
elevator and grain warehouse systems of
the state of Minnesota. We specify,
charge and indict them as follows:
That they defraud the farmer in the
grading of his wheat; that they defraud
him in weights taken for cleaning his
wheat; that they defraud. him in amounts
charged for shrinkage and waste; that the
charges for storage and handling are, in
many cases, excessive and unjust; that the
elevator and warehouse systems are so
operated and manipulated as to make
them monopolies and specialists, driving
away and debarring from their doors ali
individual and private buyers, and all
competitive enterprises and,
Whereas, 1t is evident that many rail
road corporations in the state make un-
just and injurious determinations in
favor of the elevator and warehouse mo-
nopolies, as against the farmer and pro-
ducer and private enterprises. Wespeci-
fly, charge and indict them as follows:
That they make unjust and injurious
determinations in favor of the corporate
monopolies in that they allow rebates and
drawbacks to said monopolies, while they
are refused to the farmers and private
shippers.
That they debar the farmer of his rights
as a citizen, in refusing him cars ON track
in which to ship his grain.
That they are unjust and oppressive to
the farmer in that they refuse him the
privilege of erecting small elevators and
shipping warehouses at points on their
lines where elevators already exist.
That the freight charges to the farmer
and individual shippers are exhorbitant
and oppressive beyond reason, on many
railroads in the state.
That they are hand IN hand with the
elevator and warehouse rings and mono
poles % debar and shut out from the
farmer and producer, q free, open and
untrammeled market.
And, whereas, these evils and abuses as
set forth in the above preambles, are too
onerous, unjust and oppressive to be
longer endured; therefore
Res0lved, That we do most earnestly
protest against and condemn said evils
and abuses. That we will not cease from
our efforts and 1abors until we obtain full
and complete justice. Until the farmer
and the citizen, however humble ana
lowly his station, shall enjoy his full and
complete rights Until no citizen is de-
barred of any right or privilege enjoyed
by any other citizen, class or corporation.
Resolued, That it is the sense of this
convention that their only hope of redress
is through legislation. That to secure
such legislation as shall restore the rights
of the farmer and the citizen, and to check
