WE feel sorry for the Chicago Herald that
it should have made such bad break on the
POUEDMAKER business The Herald is live
paper and deserves better fate than to be
caught in the meshes of sensational journal
ism. 1t will, however, gain a valuable
experience in this particular, for
hereafter when it wants reliable
news from the Northwest it will con-
fine itself to the columns of the GLOBE and
will not be led astray by an ignus fatuus like
the Pioneer Press, which never catches up
with the news until it is two days old, and
whenever it reflects q light that looks like
enterprise it invariably turns out to be the
deceitful glinmer of the will o. the wisp de-
coying its followers into the boys and quag-
mires of unreliable journalism. We hope
that the Herald will be able to bear up un-
der the laughs that it's more cautious Chicago
contemporaries will have at its expense.

AS WILL be seen by reference to another
column, a call has been made for meeting of
the alumni of Hamline university, to be held
at the university On the evening of the 10th
of June, for the purpose of organizing an
alumni association. There is something very
tender in the attachment of college students
for their alma mater, and the organization of
these alumni associations not only serves to
keep alive this filial affection, but it goes a
long ways toward promoting the prosperity
of an institution from which the members
have graduated. Hamline university is now
within the limits Of ST. Paul, and as matter
of course our people feel an interest in its
success and will take pride in everything that
contributes to its prosperity, The next COM
mencement exercises, which begin on
the 18th day of June, will be the first COM
mencement of the university since it has be-
come peculiarly st. Paul nstitution, and our
citizens viii doubtless render the occasion the
encouragement of their presence.

Mr.. Petit of Minneapolis said that the
farmers desired but four principal grades to
be handled at the country elevators by the
average man in charge of such, and that
there should be and hard and l and 2
regular. The millers could regulate other
grades. The general opinion was there
should be two hard grades. There is no
difference in price of No. Northern and
No. hard in the North, as they are about
the same thing, but there is a difference of
cents further south.
Mr.. Petit said the question of dockage,
in regard to making farmers clean their
grain, was impracticable, as the producer
was generally so situated that he could not
cleanse his wheat, while it was impossible in
steam elevators to get out cookie from the
grain.
There was no objection, in his mind, to
letting the wheat of Minnesota take the place
of regular grade 1, under the name
of Northern. The Minneapolis men
desired that No. should go under
that head. 1t was thought by Mr..
Delano that grain should be inspected by
the state for what it was, and that it would
regulate its own price. The result of the fam
nlng mill by the farmers was Nos. 1. Q and
grade wheat, but it got to be so extensive
a crop that the cleaning was done at coun-
try elevators. and then the dockage system
followed. The cleaning by country eleva-
tors should be substituted for dockage. and
the wheat only be graded after it is cleaned.
Let the trade for cleaning wheat be between
the producer and the cleaner before it comes
to state inspection.
Mr.. Delano explained the dirty wheat
guess work of inspectors. The discussion
came up on being able to determine the
amount of dirt in wheat and it was de-
cided that not one man in one hundred
could actually determine it. One man will
estimate pound of dirt to a bushel, and
another five pounds on the same lot.
Mr.. Jacobs agreed with him on the dirty
wheat question. The elevators had been to
blame for receiving dirty wheat, and be-

AS vocalist, the burro stands without

up until you tremble for your life; and
just as you think he will surely stop, or
