Discrimination Against Graceville

1t seems that the Fargo Southern
railroad is doing its best to kill our
neighboring village, Graceville, by
building up village on each side to
which to attract business. By this
means business is to be done at points
not reached by their competitor the
Manitoba road. The following special
telegram which appeared in the Min
neapols Tribune will give additional
light upon the subject:
Fargo, June I5.-The Fargo and
Southern has changed its Rupert
station eight miles south of Granville,
/ to Clinton, three miles nearer Grace
Vile. This change was brought about
by the Ortonville people, who claimed
| it was drawing grain from their legiti-
mate territory. 4 new station has al
so been established at Tarrah, five
miles north Of Graceville, on the road.
One of the purposes of these new
stations is to make it convenient for
farmers to deliver their wheat, and
/ save the huliDg of the extra five miles
to Graceville, where the wheat has
heretofore been marketed.

1t Is most gratifying to every one
interested in the development of our
state to witness the interest awakened
in every part thereof in the important
interest of dairying and stock raising.
The magnitude which those interests
have recorded in our state is a marvel
even to ourselves and is certainly evil
denceof the superior resources of Min
nesota,,as an agricultural state. Some
thing more than two year agoI attend
ed aconvention of thischaracter heldat
M ankato, where there were gathered
number of prominent and success
full dairymen from other states. I
very well remember the amused eX-
preston upon their faces when I
stated, in my brief address upon that
occasion, they would have to look
well to their laurels or Minnesota
would surprise and surpass them in
the character and the amount of her
dairy products. Ifany of those gentle
men are present in this convention,
and think recognize a few in the
audience before me, could modestly
refer them to the record Minnesota
made at the worlds exposition in New
Orleans [applausel and to the grand
sweepstakes premiums for the best
butter made in the world tor veri-
fication of my prediction. 1t was in
the nature of a revelation to the coun-
try, and perhaps to some extent, to
ourselves, that Minnesota should so
soon be given the banner and be
placed in the head of the dairy inter-
ests of the country in recognition of
the character of her dairy products.
AL are
favorable, as has been sufficiently
demonstrated, for the successful prose-
cution of diversified husbandry in our
state. But we must be on the alert
and continue our efforts to maintain
our advantage and the position we
hold in the lead of dairy interests of
the country. Our neighbors from
whom we have taken the banner will
recapture it if they can. The same in
telligence. industry and enterprise
that won the prize, however, I believe
will retain it in our hands, and that
Northern Minnesota will prove
powerful auxiliary in that behalf is
assured, I think, by the character and
spirit of this convention.-Gov Hub
