Far far away, the waters DER
kingdom lies by the blue sea-shore
Famous in history's tale and song
For a battle CORY, fierce and long.
Famous alike for the name that fell,
And the name that from its own death -knell,
So grand, so great, so full of glory,
That it rings to-day in song and story.
There are many towns by its rivers clear,
To the hearts of nations people dear,
And one from them for my first We'll take,
And from it, by adding my whole we IL make.
little word my next will be,
But very useful to you and me;
So often used by each and ALL
BY man and woman great and small.
To a distant land my third pertains
With its deserts great and its wind-swept mains,
The stories of which read in rhyme
From earliest age to modern time
My fourth is an exposition brief
OF important points in our hearts belief;
In religion, politics, science too,
Men differ in all that's good and true.
A symbol of faith you will find my whole,
The teaching of which is to the soul;
To theological depths you must go
If all of its doctrines you seek to know. ELLERY

1t will be q very satisfactory piece Of
news to the farmers Of this vicinity to
learn that the Northern Pacific Railroad
company has made reduction in grain
shipping rates to Minneapolis and
DC,Hth. The reduction is on car load
lols, and inVluues mill stuff and flour
and effects all points on the main line
and branches Is far west az Miles City,
Mon tana, and Is from 8 10 S cents Der
l00 pounds. From this point TO Duluth
the rate is now Is cents, the old rate was
IS cents. From Little Falls to Mime
apoiIs the rate is now Is cents, and it
was formerly IS cents. Royalton has
the same rate to Duluth as Little Falls
has, but has all advantage of one cent ON
the Minneapolis rate. Just why it
should be so is better understood by the
railroad officials than b. others. 1t is
very gratifying, however, to have this
voluntary reduction made by the n. P.
company, and it shows that the corpora
ton is inclined to deal fairly by the
territory dependent upon it for TRANSPORT
tation facilities, and will, as the country
develops and the business of the road
increases, continue to give shippers as
low rate as possible

Train men on the Little Falls & Da-
kota complain that at several points
along the route, particularly at Sauk
Centre and Birch Lake, parties who wish
to spear fish by torch light steol the
packing out Of the car boxes, it being
very good material for torches. AT
Sauk Centre yesterday nearly every box
on fifteen cars had been robbed This
practice may result in gre at damage to
the company, as in that condition a
Journal could be easily heated and brok
en- and the effect would be a wrecked
train with possible loss of life. If the
offenders are caught the sevcrcst penalty
Of the law will be inflicted.
