want to save what you NOV, but it
is much more profitable to rake the
grass in windrows and burn it.. Now

dispose of the grass the same way.

Publ G Land Outrages.

The Farm Implement News pub
fishes a strong article on the folly and
injustice of the government allowing
the wholesale appropriation of public
lands to private use. without COM
pensation. 1t can see no justice in
compelling the actual settler to live
on his land, build upon and improve
ii, while the nonresident, whether
citizen OF alien, can occupy all the
land he can get stock 10 roam over
and feed upon. without expanding a
cent for provements of any kind.
The remedy proposed is for the gov
eminent to lease the public lands,
subject at any time to sale to actual
settlers. Mexico-poor, foolish. half
civilized Mexico-has sense enough
to do this, and reaps large revenue
from the policy. Even Indians have
sufficiently keen eye to business to
lease the surplus lands of their reser-
vatIons. Texas allows non-residentS
to use her lands only upon payment
of at least five cents per acre per
annum. Millions of acres Of lands
belonging to the United States are
not only freely used by individuals
and companies of vast wealth, but
these favored sons Of fortune are al.
lowed to tyranize over the poor set
tier who dare seek homes on OF near
the appropriated acres.
Depriving the government of the
revenue the policy of leasing lands
might create. is but a small part of
the injustice after ali. The land
owner, large and small, must COM
pete with these government licensed
lords in the production Of meat and
wool; men who have no investment
to make save in stock alone, while
the landowner must buy and pay Tor
his land before he can be allowed to
accumulate a cent of surplus. The
iniguity OF this system is intensified
by the fact that foreigners are allow
I'd to avail themselves of this out
rageous folly of ours, can and do
come here, make fortunes in few
years, which are taken back to their
countries and use1 in building up
their wealth.
Our wool-growers in the East can,
with much more reason, ask to be
protected from the wool of these
free lands than from that of foreign
growth. In short, the ways which
this free gift Of the use OF lands
affects the land owners all over the
country are multitudinous, and add
to the already numerous abuses now
prevalent in this country. The mar
ner in which our grand patr;monysof
public lands has been squandered and
diverted to unholy and base uses Is u
disgrace to our civilization, and is
the cause of many Of the burdens and
iniquities we now labor nnder and en-
dure.
We have given public lands TO
tuild up monopolies which are des-
troying myriads of private interests,
and, when We have no excuse for
giving away, we lease-ront free
that thousands more of Individual H.
terest may be injured or ruined.

A Real Necessity.

We presume there is hardly lady
to be found in our broad land who, If
she does not already possess a sewing
machine, expects some day to become
the owner of one.
But after the mind has been fully
made up to purchase one of these in
dispensable articles. the question
arises as to what kind Of machine
to buy.
1t should be so simply constructed
that the most inexperienced can sue
cessfully operate it. Tie other
points mainly to be considered, and
which are the most desirable, are
durability, rapidity. capacity for
work, ease of operation, regularity of
motion. uniformity OF tension, and
silence while in operation.
The Light Running New Home"
fills the above requirements, and is
said to combine the good points OF
all sewing machines, with the addi-
ton of many new improvements and
laforsaving devices.
The price is no higher than that Of
other machines. and every lady who
is the happy possessor of one may
rest assured she has indeed treasure.

1t would be we'll fer the democrats

ing Messrs. Kelly and Doran for
what they have done and, also, for
what they have not tcne in regard

themselves whether they are acting
the part of fair-minded, honorable

who arc occupying positions and OK
ercising authority conferred upon
them by the united voice of the dem
ocracy Of the State. We desire to
call attention to the fact that Mr..

and it will no, be denied, that he Is
one of the most influential men on

cept those who failed to grind their
axes, who is opposed to Mr.. Kelly,
We have not yet succeeded in meet
ing with hi n.
Mr.. Dortn does not appear to re-
ceiye quite rs much abuse as his CO.
labore., Int he is receiving enough
to excite the gnation, not only of
his friends, but OF fair-ninded men,
everywhere. Mr.. Doran, us chair
man Of the State committee, is very
properly the leader Of the democracy
of Minnesota, and it's mouth piece at
Washington. OF those who object to
him we would ask that they point out
n single endorsement of his that is
lnsat isfactory to the democracy of
the State. If Mr.. Doran has erred at
Nil in this respect it was in being
oyer-cautlous, as some Of his warm
est friends can attest. In all cases
where appointments have been made
the endorsements Of the member Of
tile State committee and Of the Con-
gressional committee can be found,
together with well known democrats
all over the state, and we hold such
endorsements to be sufficient.

that Governor Hubbard is making a

Governor has many warm friends
who are both able and willing to aid

In referring to the October report
of the department Of agriculture.
Farm. Stock and Home says:
A very significant incident occurred
upon the publication of the estimate
increasing the total amount OF wheat
the comparatively insignificant sum
of 6,0O0, OoO bushels. We allude to
the almost pauicky decline in the
price Of wheat which Immediately
followed the announcement. The in
cident is valuable because it shows
upon what an unstable foundation
grain value rests, and how complete
~ we are in the power of the produce
gamblers of the country. 1t Is true
this decline may be temporary and
trilling, but it illustrates what might
happen upon the occurrence of b. g
ger scare, and how little the law OF
actual supply and demand influences
prices as compared with the caprices
Of bulls and bears. .
