The Northwestern Takes Wei

Auc NOfCuWeSCern IakCS We'll,
The subjoined are specimens of
tie many letters received 10y the Of
licers of the Northwestern Mutual
Insurance company of this city,
acknowledging its superior plan Of
insurance and unquestionable de-
sire and ability to award fair and
equitable losses. The letters are
from different sections showing that
universal justice is being done and
that this company promises to ex.
cell all others, especially in the mat.
ter of hail insurance, that have ever
done Insurance in this country.
Read tile letters:
This is to certify that l was in
sured under Policy No. II. 34S of
the Northwestern Mutual Insurance
Company of Wahpeton. Dakota, and
that on the 10Th day of June, 1886,
my grain was struck by hail; my
loss was adjusted June 26th, 1886,
by their special agent, N. A. Page,
allowing me five hundred and four
bushels of wheat and one hundred
and sixty bushels Of oats, which l
consider full and fair adjustment
of my loss. I cheerfully recommend
the Northwestern MutuaP' to the
consideration Of my brother farmers,
as affording safe and reliable .insur-
ance at the actual cost.
H. NJ. PETERSON,
Horace, Dakota, June '26th, 1886.
Secretary Northwestern Mutual Ins. Co.
DEAR SIR: I enclose you report
of the several hail losses which oc.
Cured here June 18th. l have
carefully examined these losses and
consider the report fair and honest
in every particular. Should you
conclude to allow me to adjust these
losses as you intimate, you may as
well issue certi iticates on these re-
ports, as in my judgment they are
COlIeCGs -
(The company issu ed certificates of
loss on the reports, among them be-
ing one for Mr.. Cr ose, and upon re.
ceipt of them Mr.. G. writes:)
The results are good. and they are
so simply because I have a company
back of me whose plan of insurance
is the most practical and feasible of
any I ever saw. In the Northwes-
tern, men get what they want
Protection. In every instance, your
losers say they are being honestly
dealt with. 1 am fully satisfied
with the settlement of my loss.

+" Col. w. p, Grace has lust issue,

"Coi. w. p. Grace has just issued
a circular in which he sets forth
some very important facts concern
ing the vote in this state at the last
election on the liquor question. He
says: "'We have complete returns
from fifty-eight of the seventy-6ve
counties in the state, and of these
ffty-eight, twenty-five have voted
the saloon down and ont; and of the
other seventeen not yet fully heard
from, it is almost certain six have
also gone against license thus ma
king twenty-eight counties in the
state which have voted by a majority
Of the vote cast on that subject
against the liquor traffic in Their
borders, in any shape, for the next
two years. And it appears from the
returns that in many other counties
where the liquor men carried tie
county for license, the majorlties
were small-in some counties only
a few votes, as IN Benton and Gar
land.
The total vote polled in the state
was anout 10000, and of these
about $4,000 voted for license and
about 10000 against license thus
leaving about 10000 which were
not put in either for or against
license.
By way Of showing how much
the anti-saloon sentiment has IN
creased in our state since the pco-
pie have been given the chance to
vote for or against license, | will
state that at the election in 1882
the total vote polled against license
was less than 10000. AT the cleo
ton in 1884 the total vote against
license was $4,000, and at the late
election the antilicense vote reach
es about 10000"

The following, which we clip from
the Paragould Press, shows how
easy it is for honest newspaper men
to be mistaken for noted politicians:
"Last week while the editor of
this paper was in Memphis he met
an old friend and relative whom he
had not seen for years, and who is
I, now planter in Mississippi county,
this state. Sheriff Hayes, of Missis-
siPPi county, was also in the city,
and said friend and relative calling
to the sheriff in the rotunda of the
Peabody Hotel said, "Sherlff Hayes
let me introduce you TO my relative,
Bob. Taylor" The sherlff's genial
countenanoe lighted up with mex
Pressible Joy as he eagerly seized
the hand Of the editor and congratu-
lated him on the honors that he had
won in the late campaign, the big
name that he had made with the
people of Mississippi county, aud
the editor was just beginning to
wonder why he didn't run against
Dunn for Congress, when the fact
developed that Sheriff Hayes thought
he was talking to Gov. Bob Taylor
of Tennessee.

THg LIQUOR TRAFFIC.

The Masonic Fraternity is setting
itself against the whisky traffic. The
Grand Codge of Kentucky recently
declared, "That the business of sa-
loon keeping is masonic offense and
punishable al other offenses." And
the Grand Lodge of Arkansas at its
session last week declared that here
after no one who keeps a saloon can
be made mason, and if he begins
keeping after he is made mason, he
shall be treated as an offender and
tried for it. Since the Protestant
churches, the Catholic church, the
Knights of Labor, the Wheel and
the Masonic fraternity are all pro-
scribing the liquor traffic, it has a
hard time and will at no distant day
hav. to give way. The moral senti-
ment of the country is growing very
strong against it and soon there will
none be left to defend it. We are
not fanatical on the subject, but we
can not figure up any good saloon
does town. If a saloon does some
harm and no good, then public SEN
timent will naturally grow against it.
High. license is good thing where
public sentiment wants nothing
stronger. The three mile law is still
better where public sentiment will
enforce it, and total prohibition will
come when the people at large agree
on the evils Of the traffic. - [Tele-

DRINKING DURING BUSINESS HOURS
Chicago Tribune.


Moderate drinkers engaged in pur.
suits calling for judgment and acu.
men, and who use liquor during bu-
siness hours, end, with scarcely al
exception, as financial wrecks, how
ever successful they may be in with
standing the physical consequence,
of their indulgence. Thousands who
retain their health and are never
ranked as victims of intemperance
lose their property, wreck their bus
iness aud are thrown into bankrupt
cy because OF tiPpling habits during
business hours. These men are not
drunkards, and only close observers
can detect the influence of strong
drink in their department; but nev
ertheless liquor gives them false
nerve, makes them reckless, CLOUDS
the judgment, and soon involves
them in bad purchases, worse sale
and ruinous contracts. Sooner oi
later 1t is shown that the habit f
rippling during business hours is a
forerupner Of bankruptcy. Let eve
nv such drinker review his business
transactions for series Of years ana
answer whether this statement is no,
true. Liquor acts on the brain in the
same manner as chloroform or ether,
producing a stimulation which effects
cool thought, followed by lepres
sion corresponding to the amount OF
the dose. What man would expec,
to succeed in business if he were &C
customed to take, while at work,
even very slight whifls of ether, chlo-
reform or laughing gas and keep
himself all the time more or less un-
der such becluuding influences?
That the above observations arr
true in every particular, the Older
citizens of Osceola those who have
noted the business changes of the
past fifteen or twenty years, will
readily testify. Men have engaged
in business under the most flattering
and auspicious circumstan ces, hail
fellows all; well equipped with fine
qualities of mind and heart, whom
! all delighted to honor and patronize,
. and who for time did thriving
and lucrative business; but, who fol-
