The .Jauesvilie Argus intimtaes that
Gen. J. II. Baker will 90 into training

St1ouldn't wonder. Two years is 4
long wi!e to be out of Office, and the
general has rarely exceeded this period
of time since lie lirst shed waists and
short pants Hastings GaZptte.
And 1t is 4 pity that he should he
out OF office eve:. that long, for he has
never filed one in this State yet that
he did not raise sinecure to An i'm
portart, effective, powerful engine for
public good. He made the Office of
Rai;road Commissioner a living, vital
one for redressing grievances and reg
ulating the great railroad juggernauts.
The people of this State owe him a
debt Of gratitude for his services in Sc
curing railroad legislation and in exc
cutting the laws. His reports upon the
mineral deposits of this State and his
railroad reports are probably the very
best public documents which have been
issued by the State.
Why shouldn't Gen. Baker have an
Office. AMI why shouldn't he run for
Co ,gress in this district?

CAMP OUT.
DR.. T. D. Worrall, of Lynn, Mass
aava in The nOctOr.

DR.. T. D. Worrall, of Lynn, Mass
says in The Doctor:
would, after 40 years experience in
the treatment of Consumption, give
my best general advice: Take tent or
ambulance and camp out, CAMP OUT,
CAMPO OUT.
He says that in early times, con-
sumptives were cured or greatly bene-
fitted by going to Colorado or Califor-
mia. Now tho propo 'i.n is not so
great. The reason is that formerly
they went in wagons in the open air.
Now they rush through in few days
in cars and it often finishes them. \
So. what consumptives and invalids
need is air, more air, most air! This
doctors views accord with hundreds
Of facts. A man at Lemars, few
years ago, thought he must have the
California climate for his cOnsump-
ton. He crossed in a wagon and was
cured when lie got there. DR.. Bush
nell. the ! once eminent Hartford
preacher, came to Minnesota in early
times with one lung nearly nsed up.
He mounted a horse and lived every
day in the op n air. and went back in
six months permanently cured. Adj
rondack Murray. in his book on the glo.
rjous camp life in the Adi1ondacks,
tells of a young man from New York,
who was carried into the woods on a
stretcher dying with consumption He
was turned loose in the great woods
and the balsamic air, with a compan-
| ion, and III FIVE months he came out
carrying his boat triumphantly on his
shoulders, and capable of eating and
digesting more trout than any man il
New Yoak.
| Dr.. Bethune used to go to the noun
tains every summer, as he said, to ''t;.'
onions and mediate" He really went
to re. .juvinate, re-i"vigorate and re in
tegrate his constitution BY living in
revelling in and breathing in th'

Our criminal and penitentiary neigh
b'r, H. J. Miller, editor Of the Rock
County Herald, was put to his wits to
get even with the letters We published
from prominent persons who know and
despise him. and who urge US to ''give
it to him." But lie was equal to the
occasion. He invented a statement,
made it up out Of his own head, which
hasn't an honest hair in 1t.
To offset these cutting and genuine
letters he says that prominent citizen
of Worthington declared some time
az" that the editor of the ADVANCE
was las crazy as bed bug"
This prominent citizen" we have fre-
quently alluded to under the generic
term of "white trash." We have an
nounced for at least twelve years that
there are number of these ''promi-
nent citizens" distinguished for their
ignorance, bigotry, etc.. who were al
ways declaring the editor OF the AD-
VANCE ''crazy'' because he did not
agree with them in religious and 80.
cial matters.
We have also frequently announced
that we were in good company; that
Jesus Christ was pronounced ''beside
himself'' because he did not agree with
his neighbors in religious matters and
his friends actually laid hold of him"
to restrain him; that st. Paul was de-
clared ''mad'' because he told that
''ghost" story about being met on the
way to Damascus and knocked from
his saddle; that Bruno was declared in
sane by the Pope of Rome, one of those
infallible lights of the church, because
he stuck to it that the earth did re
volve on its ''axeltree''; that Sir lssac
Newton was thought to be insane by
his neighbors because he ''acted curl.
Gus" while making his experiments,
even Flowing soap bubbles and "sich'';
that Morse was called ''insane'' when
he was trying to get an appropriation
from Congress to put telegraph line
between Washington and Baltimore.
And 50 on ad infinltum.
Perhaps we ought not to notice this
Luverne criminal so much, but he at.
fords US such capital opportunities t0
give'his whole class, set, or gang good
rap every nov and then, that our lead
pencil almost gets up itself and replies
by sort Of ''independent slate writ.
Ing"
And still this doesn't clear the Lu.
verne criminals name of the disgrace
which is on II. He was published BY
the Luverne Times as having commit
ted ''most revolving crime in society,"
This is what we want cleared up.

BOGUS BAKING POWDER TESTS.


Rather ingenious hut not less fraud
u!ent are the pretended tests of baking
powder being made in many of our

These so called tests consist in mix
ing separately, with water. a sample Of
the baking powder found in tn. house
and carried by the agent. From that
found in the house, if pure article.
the bubbles If gas will rise and burst
on top like those from a
gls:s of champaign. The Chicago bak
ing powder which they carry, whe,'
mixed with water, will show an extra
froth upon the top Of the mixture
which is claimed rs evidence of superb
ority. On the contrary, however, it is
not only the exhibition of trick, but
is absolute proof that the baking pow
der which SO acts is adulterated. The
chemists have assertained that the
adulterant used is chemical added for
the express purpose of producing this
action aud deceiving h"usekeepers as
to the true value of the baking powder.
This is not only a dishonest trick. bnt
a dirty one. for the chemical is the pro.
duct of the filthy refuse Of the slaugh-
ter house, and if this baking powder is
used in the preparation of food passes
into the biscuit or cake without
change. OF course, any statements
made in reference to any other baking
powders. by parties caught IN practic.
ing such tricks as these f"r the pur
pose of deceiving the public, will be
entitled to no credit.
1t is probably wisest in the interest
of our families. and to prevent our
food from being contaminated by
tramps of this kind, to turn all persons
who wish or attempt to tamper with il
uncerimoniously from the door. and to
use tho7e articles only which expert.
ence has proved satisfactory, or the
official tests have established as pure
and wholesome.

SCHEfFER'S CANDIDACY

There is quite vigorous protest
from the farmers throughout the state
against accepting Albert Scheffer. the
St. Paul banker, as the Alliance candi.
date for Governor. They see, as the
ADVANCE said at the time of his
selection by the committee. that the
''volce is the voice of Jacob, but the
hands are the hands of Esau." We
notice in the Alliance and Labor pa
pers various reasons given for this Sc.
lection. But it looks to US as though
it were the same old movement, yes.
terday, today and forever. St. Paul
and Minneapolis must have the Cover.
nor. He must be resident of one of
these cities, or he must be identified
with them in their interests and
schemes. This is the secret under it
all. st. Paul men originated it, work.
ed it, and executed it, in the hope of
committing the farmers in advance to
Il st. Paul man.
st. Paul, Minneapolis. Saltwater and
lew more LOWnS, are woven LOgeCnel
in manufacturing, real estate and f..
nancial schemes, aud they will name
the Governor and the Senator every
time, and the farmers and workingmen
over all the state will rally to their
support under the cry Of the ''Grand
Old Party"
These cities at the centre will put a
Sabin into the Senate whenever they
choose, to represent their material in
terests. Senator e. K Davis was the
choice of the outsiders. but he would
have been defeated by St. Paul and the
central power if he had not been res
ident of St. Paul and man they we're
proud of.

There is much that is picturesque. doubtless,
in the war now in progress in Egypt, but not
great deal that is of interest to Americans,
except as the results may affect the fortunes of
Emin and Stanley. So strong is the influence
of propinquity and kindred that the sinking Of

In the Senate. As far as the public are con-
