what Might Happen il MiiIers
Were Only Anarchists.
New York Star.
A Minneapolis man talked long with a
manufacturer of mill machinery whom he
met at the Gilsey house last evening.
IF the millers were anarchists" said
the Minnesota man, ''they could blow up
every flour mill in Minneapolis without
using dynamite God only knows the
power millers have in their hands if they
were devils enough to use it. A flour
mill in operation is almost as dangerous as
a powder magazine and has to be watched
as closely. Every Goa miner IS afraid of
fire-damp. and every 'er knows his mill
is likely to be clown up with
terrible explosion az any moment. To
most people this would sound like an exag-
geration, but l lell you it is solemn fact.
What blew up your mills in Barclay street
few years ago? What leveled whole
block of stone mills in Minneapolis not long
since, so that it looked as though a cyclone
had struck the city? Nothing in the world
but f1our-one of the deadliest and most
powerful explosives known.
IF you stand in -four mill. near the
stones, and look across the room toward
the sunlight you will see that the air is
loaded with fine grain dust. If you had
microscopic eyes you would see yourself
surrounded with small atoms of grain of all
kinds. These atoms form an explosive
substance more powerful than any known
to Nihilists, and their presence, though in
evitabe is what makes flour mill as
dangerous as powder pit. Suppose you
take dry car of corn and set it on fire. 1t
will burn slowly. Shell the ear and fire
the kernels and it burns much more rapidly.
Grind the corn and it will burn like paper.
Reduce it to powder-to dust-and, if
ignited, it goes off like flash. That is the
state In which flour is dangerous. when it
is finer than -four If mill becomes over
charged with this dust, and it is ignited,
away goes the mill.
several years ago the large Washburn
mills IN Minneapolis caught fire. They
were going at the time. Those who knew
the danger gave the alarm and got out as
lively as they could"
Ibid the mills blow up?"
81 should say they did. The walls were
made of stone six feet thick, and when the
explosion came they tumbled out like straw
board. The Sheet-iron roof was blown so
high from one of the Washburn mills that
the wind carried it two miles. Men watch
ing the fire at a distance were blown
through windows, knocked down, hurled
through the air and several were killed.
Sometimes the lighting of pipe in grain
house will demolish the building. In
Scotland mill a man once lit cigar. In
second the room seemed filed with fire.
and there was terrible roar. When the
smoke cleared away the four walls of the
mill lay fat on the ground and the roof lay
several hundred feet away. With the ex-
ception of bad scare and smuggling not
person was hurt. The dust burned. Great
ing great heat.

LOVELY AT HOME.
A Citizen of Albert Lea Says the
Democrats Can Garry Freeborn

A CitlZen VI Albeit Lea says the
Democrats Can Garry Freeborn
County.
To the Editor of the Globe:
The opposition to Lovely among the Re-
publicans Of this county is rising like q tidal
wave. He was allow ed to have the delega-
ton of this county simply by default. No
one thought it necessary to oppose him and
thereby expose themselves TO his malicious
vindictiveness and abuse. Until he had, by
the aid of few strikers and most reckless
unheard-Of, shameless and diSgraceful
methods, carried some other counties, nobody
here, where he is known for what he is, re-
garded his candidacy as anything but fcti-
tiouS, bottomleSs and harmless one. Now,
after he has really captured the nomination
in the questionable way he has, they all feel
like kicking themselves for not nipping his
candidacy in the bud long ago. While he
has some ability in certain limited directions,
in every other respect as a candidate for con-
gress he is the monumental fraud of the ages
1t is impossible to conceive how any man
who processes religion can tolerate the idea
of voting for him for any position OF public
trust. And they will not. In next to the
largest business block in tins city there are
only three, and probably but two, men who
will vote for him. Of his
TWENTY NEAREST NEIGHBoRs.
exclusive Of Democrats, in the best part of
this city, only four will vote for him at the
polls. And it is largely so throughout the
city and county. Many prominent Republic
cans here took great interest in the nomina-
ton of Judge Wilson, and through the dele
cation from this county to the WinOna con-
vention pledged him their support in adj
vance. They are more jubilant, if possible,
than are the Democrats over his acceptance,
as it gives them chance to make square
issue between genuine ability and proved i'll
tegrity and the Republican candidate. Judge
Wilson can, with proper effort Oh the part of
his friends, carry Freeborn county. John A.
Lovely cannot, under any circumstances, go
out of it with one-third Of the 1880 majority
that he has so brazenly claimed. These are
few only of the points of the true inwardness
of the situation here that have not been I'M
derstood through the district, mainly because
both of our county papers happen, acciden-
tally and nominally rather than otherwise, to
be run in his interest, and whitewash, cover
up and smother, as far as possible, anything
that would not tend to eXalt him and his po-
litical prospects.
