REPORT OF THE CONDITION
OF THE
STEVENS COUNTY BANK,

County Bank" Morris, Mimi, do solemnly swear
that the above statement is true to the best of my
knowledge and belief.

Morris tribune., 1886-02-10

In behalf of the people of Stevens
county, the TRIBUNE expresses the
most sincere sympathy for the people
of the South and East who are and
for some time have been blockaded
with snow and shivering with cold.
TO such as are enterprising enough to
wish to better their location, we ex-
tend cordial invitation to come and
enjoy with us this genial climate.
The TRIBUNE is now sending out a
large quantity of commercial job work
done in copying INK. We find that
some of our business men have sup-
posed that we did not do work of this
kind and that 1t was necessary to send
to the larger cities In order to get it.
This is mistake. Ifyou wish sta
tionery or blanks or anything else
printed in copying ink, come to this
office. We will warrant our WORK in
this as in other things to be satisfac-
tory.
At many of the surrounding villages
there is no photographer. We would
remind the residents of these places
as we'll as the people nearer home of
the fact that there is an excellent pho
tographer here in Morris. Mr.. Elliot
came here early last summer and
opened gallery. He has had score
and more years of active experience,
and, as he is supplied with all mod
ern appliances, Is able to do tirst-class
work. He guarantees satisfaction and
will never send poor picture from
his gallery. When in need of any,
thing in the picture line call and see
him. J..
In another column Chas. Wilson
has communication which is we'll
worth perusing, He claims that, as
Morris merchants are doing business
in the same way, they are able to Of
fer but few if any inducements to buy
ers, more than are offered by the mer-
chants of neighboringpl places, and sug-
gests that by concentrating their cap
ital and each devoting his attention
| to some one line of goods many bene'
! fits may be secured. He also suggests
that by so doing, goods would be pur'
chased in large quantities direct from
manufacturers and at much less cost
than is now the csse. The cost O.
supporting drummers and the tribut'
now paid st. Paul and Minneapolii
iobbers would certainly be saved. /
by making a change in the manner o
doing business, there could be gen
eral lowering Of the selling prices o
goods in Morris, purchasers you'd b
| attracted from far and near and tn
trade, population and wealth of ou
| city would be greatly increased. W.
trust that whatever there is of good
in Mr.. Wilson's remarks will be act
ed upon. The TRIBUNE will he gla'
| to hear ftona others on this same sub
| jeetor upon any other subject sor th

The cOnical dune on which the out

Washington society is certainly going
the pace, and at such railroad speed as
to leave all the other cities Of the Union
stunned and helpless in the background.

The Value of Riches.

Itrom the Philadelphia Press.
A large income will purchase for a
man the comfort, the tangible and in
tangible good which a small income
will not. Nothing will c0ntrovert this
bald fact. Not all the preaching or
philosophy in the world can persuade
a rational man that money is not a
good thing, which will enable him to
educate his children, to givethem their
choice OF work in life, to procurl
skilled physicians, luxuries, and change
of air for his wife when death threatens
her, to help the poor, to forward the
cause of Christianity, and, for himself,
to rest for brief spell before heleaves
this beautiful world, to find out what
is in it beyond drudgery. There are
high spiritual blessings, no doubt,
which come to us through poverty,
but the extremely small number Of
persons who voluntarily become her
mits or paupers in these later days in
order to obtain them show how uncer-
tain the popular faith in them has
grown. Money is of value to a man
just in proportion as it buys for him
these assured benefits, or anything
else which he esteems a benefit.

essarily pure air. Ii there is no fire in
the sleeping room, we must secure
what warmth wecan by sealing up the
room as nearly Theoretically as posi-
BILE, and then piling on the bed clothes.
OF course the air in such a room must
necessarily be very impure before
morning.
An open fire is the best possible ven
tilator, but if that is not possible, a
stove is the next best thing. 1t is not
necessary to keep a fire in sleeping.
room all day, but have one started at
night, and then let it 90 ont in the
morning as soon as the chamber work
is done. With a fire in the room the
windows can be opened, when you re-
tire, enough to secure pure air, and
each one can make his toilet in his own
room, instead of all rushing half
dressed to the kitchen to wash and
comb there, which is not an especially
! desirable accompaniment to the cook
ing OF breakfast.
Save in blankets and comforters,
save by less elaborate and more diges-
tive cooking, but do not try to save
by sleeping in cold room. We need
the warmth OF a fire more at night,
when sleeping, than at any other time,
for then the vitality of the body is
lower. Nearly one-third of all our
lives is passed in our sleeping-rooms,
and yet many people seem to think
| that any room Is good enough to be
intended as medicine, to cool and thin
the blood which has become thick and
carbonized during the cold weather,
| when the carbons are particularly
used.-Dr. j. III. HanafOrd.

A Shying Horse.

Never strike horse for shying or
starting when an unpleasant object
presents itself, nor when his fears are
excited. A soothing word, steady
reil, and a gradual introduction to the
object which excites the animal, will
soon teach him to confde in his mas
ter and become fearless. We have
taken horse ten years old, whose
nerves were very excltable, and who
had become unmanageable and would
run away at the sound or sight OF a
locomotive or railroad train. or any
object suddenly appearingin the road,
and after few weeks steady handling
and kindly talking to on the road and
in the stable, had him stand and view

State and County Fafrs.

Generally in the month of January
the state and county societies hold
their meetings for the purpose of pre-
pairing premiums for the next fairs.
Trotting races at fairs are generally
made the most prominent features Of
the fair. 1t IS not so much the amount
OF money paid for this purpose, nor
the immoral tendency which such
racing produces on the rising genera
ton, that exhibitors of meritorious
articles object to such things. The
latter class have their articles and
stock on exhibition for general inspec-
ton. 1t is for this purpose for which
they come so far, and spend so much,
and not for the paltry sum given for
premiums, not one in ten ofwhom can
possibly get even that. But the
shouts and excitement OF the race
track keep the crowd from examining
carefully and critically the articles
which mostly interest the agriculture
list. The stock and articles of such ex-
hibitors are not inspected, and they
have no interest to be present. And

A Suggestive Paragraph.

A few years since two prominent
merchants and public men OF this city

of each other. The two had been en-.

which both were largely interested
The dispute lasted some two hours,
when they separated in anger. Short

similar experience and he died within
three hours from the termination oil

same age as W. H. Vanderbilt, and all
three were men of pronounced opinions,
