STEVENS COUNTY.
TO mention Morris and say nothing
about Stevens county, OF which it is
the county seat, would not be doing
justice to the place, since the resources
of the county have helped to make it
the busy and lively city that it is.
The county contains 355,336 acres of
land, 1S5, 169 of which are taxable and
are worth over s., O00, 900, the personal
property being valued at 100000.
The value of the. personal property
and the taxable and uutaXable lands
together aggregate he rly $4,000, 900.
Some of this untaXahle land is held
by the railroad companies and the
balance still belongs to the govern
ment. Much of it is occupied and
more and more of it is becoming tax
able each year. There is plenty. of
land that can be purchased at small
figures, and in some cases choice
farming lands that have been cult
waited for several years, can be had at
extremely low prices. No better land
for farming can be found in Minneso-
ia than what is to be had in Stevens
county, as it is most all beautiful roll
ing prairie, the soil being susceptible
to the cultivation of all kinds Of crops.
Rich and nutritious grasses grow in
abundance, and this, with numerous
small streams and lakes to be found
everywhere, make the county we'll
adapted to dairying and stockraising.
There are around Morris several fine
stock and dairy farms which furnish
sufficient proof of this.
The following is the statement OF
the acreage sown in 1884 and 1885, and
the yield per acre in 1854, as returned
to the auditors office by the assessors
of the county.

The census officials, what few there
are left of them, estimate the popula-
ton of this country to be now about
60,000,00O. During the decade from
1870 to 1880 the population increased
about 81 per cent from 80, 100000 in round
numbers to 100000 and over. As
summing that the population in this coun-
try has continued to increase at the
same ratio, and that. it will continue to
so increase until the next census is taken
in 1890, the population of the country
would then be 65,704,050. Assuming,
too, that from 1880 until the present
time the same ratio of increase has pre-
vailed, the population on the 1st of next
July would be more than 100000 and
nearly 60,000,000 of souls. In round
numbers, 10000, coo may be stated as
the present population of the United
States,

Origin of Social Games.

The city of Salem, Mass, is celebrated
for her witches, and their prosecutors,
and her East Indian commerce in the
past; and for the Indian Museum and
''oldest church, at the present day and
to these we may add the honor Of pub
fishing the first modern social games
that achieved any considerable popular
ity in this country. In 1843 Miss Annie
w. Abbott of Beverly, clergyman s
daughter, offered for publication TO Mr..
S. b. Ives of Salem, new game of
cards which she called ''Dr. Busby.n
Although the price asked was very low,
there was no recognized demand for
such merchandise and the manuscript
was declined, but later Mr.. Ives decided
to undertake its publication which
proved an immense and unexpected
success. This game win be remember
ed by many of the parents of the pres
ent day as among the earliest ever
learned and possibly played at first on
the sly, fearful of reprimand should
the report reach headquarters that they
were playing cards. Milton BRADLEY,

Very Remarkable Recovery.

Mr.. Geo. V. Willing, of Manchester,

own to do her own work"

The big dailies of st. Paul and Min
neapolis, we believe, condemn the
reading of blood and thunder dime
novels. How they can consistently
continue in this condemnation, a
reader of their accounts of murders,
suicides, Opponents, burglaries, etc,
will have difficulty in determining.

If the local elections in the various
portions of the state show anything,
they show that party obligations rest
very lightly on all classes of voters,
and that moneyed candidates are be-
coming more and more unpopular.
AS rule, the men without bar'l
who are most closely identified with
the common people have been most
successful. This is as it should be.
The drift of the times seems to be in
the rlght direction.

We notice that farmers IN certain
localities are combining to compel a
compliance with the law relating to
the destruction of wild mustard. They
propose to hunt down and prosecute
every man failing to live up to the law
in every detail. This is right! Half
way measures wont do in fighting
wild mustard. Eradication is the on
ly remedy. Pull before it it begins to
seed and then burn.

RAILROAD FACILITIES.


Morris is well provided with rail-
road facilities. At present the Mani
toba road, connecting the great wheat
fields of the Northwest with the east
ern markets, passes through Morris
and gives it an outlet north and south.
The Little Falls & Dakota railway
running from Little Falls on the
Northern Pacific (of which it is
branch) to Morris, opens up rich
field to the north and northwest, and
the st. Cloud & Lake Traverse rail-
road connecting Morris with Browns
Valley brings it to the boundary of
one of the richest farming sections in
the land-the Sisseton Reservation
which will in all probability be thrown
open to settlement at no distant day.
When this is done thousands will set
tie in that section, which is endowed
with wonderful resources. Norris
will share the benefits to large de-
gree, and it will be the means of CIV
ing it's business interests wonderful
impetus. Two other lines are project
ed which will probably be built in the
near future. One, the Morris & South
western, running from Morris south
west through Dakota, Nebraska and
Kansas, and the other, the Fergus
Falls, Morris & Appleton, which will
run through the places indicated by
its name and connect with the Mil
waukee system. These competing
lines of roads will give to Morris low
freight rates and reduce the price of
fuel, merchandise, ETC., while raising
the prices of farm products.
GENERAL INTERESTS.
For place of its size Morris takes
front rank among the young and pro-
gressive cities Of the state. Besides
the numerous mercantile stores, ETC.,
there are at Morris two good Touring
mills, located on the Pomme de Terre
river, two banks, several elevators
and a large brick yard. run by the
Morris Brick Manufacturing Co., in
corporated and having capital of
