Once More We Greet
OUR FRIENDS,
Means the Whole Commu


At the commencement of the New Year we
desire to thank our many patrons for the iberaa
fhvors bestowed on us in the past and hope
for continuance of the same. Our aim has
been to always give the best values for the
least money. AS this policy has been a sue
cessful one, we desire to state that the same
rule will be followed by us during the present
year, and we are confident that at the close of
1888 we can say and feel that we have given
entire satisfaction. We appreciate all favors
shown us and will endeavor to give our patrons
every benefit possible We are after trade; we
want it as much as any other house, and we
intend to get it if square dealing and low
prices will accomplish it. We are carrying a
large stock in every department, and buying
in large quantities, from only the most reliable
and trustworthy houses, we are enabled to
offer BETTER GOODS, FOR THE SAME
MONEY, than can be found elsewhere. We
seek competition and desire our prices COM
pared with those of fothers, that you may judge
for yourselves if our prices are NOT THE
LOWEST. If you desire to purchase Goods,
it will cost nothing to call on us and ascertain
OUR PRICES, which we are always ready to
GIVE, and if we can BENEFIT you in any
sum, NO MATTER HOW SMALL, WE ARE
BOTH GAMERS.
Many of friends have promptly forward and paid up
but have great deal OF money still due and it MUST BE
PAID We need it business and must have it, We do
want to make you COSTS u will be compelled do unless
come forward at and SETTLE Very respectfully,
WAMBERG & JACOBSON.

THE Burlington"
The Chicago, Burlington Il Northern railroad,
known over the Northwest as 'The Burling-
ton" 10 one Of those almost magical accom-
plished facts In railroad building that are
characteristic of the present day.
Up to August 1886, the towns and villages
along the eastern side Of the Upper Mississippi
were leading sort Of Rip Van Winkle life,
the advances Of the last thirty years not having
disturbed their slumberous state. In the month
above mentioned ''The Burlington" was plan
ned, and in less than a year two shining bands
Of steel linked the river towns with Chicago,
St. Louis, st. Paul, Minneapolis, Omaha, Kan
sas City, Peoria, and in fact all the leading
cities Of the United States. Forming new
and picturesque route from st. Paul aud Min
neapolis, the dual metropolis Of the new North
west, to the great cities Of the East, South and
Southwest 1t has leaped at once into popular
favor. Ask your railroad agent about it or

There are two subjects which should occupy
the attention Of the board Of county commits
sioners at an early day. The first, and the
most important Of these, both to farmers and
merchants, is the devlsing of some means for
the determination OF the gopher pest. 1t is
safe to say that Steele county suffered to the
extent Of at least $4,000 from the ravagss Of
gophers last year, while one-third of that
amount judiciously expended In bounties would
have stimulated such wholesale destruction
that damage from them would have been al
most imperceptible. We should be glad to
hear from farmers on this subject both pro and
con, and will be glad to give expression to
their opinions through the PIONEER. Do not
stand hack because you think you cannot OK
press your ideas as we'll as you would like to,
but send us line saying whether you favor OF
oppose gopher bounty. Another matter ia
| which 1t is desirable the commissioners should
pay some attention, is the suggestion made by
Judge Francis that the commissioners provide
Jail and quarters for the sheriff. or course,
we do not mean that the county should build
during cold weather, but measures might be
taken looking to that end next summer.

G. A. Is Condemned by the Bethel Society.

At 3 meeting OF the literary society connect
ed with the Bethel A. NJ. E. Church the
question of the admission of colored members
to the Y. nj. c. Association was considered.
After several speeches, in which the rights of
their race we're strenucusly maintained, q pre-
amble and resolutions offered by r. w Thomp-
son were unanimously adopted. 1t was ex-
pressed in the preamble that subscriptions for
the Y. H. Q. A building we're solicited from and
paid by colored people, with the understand
ing that no distinctions were TO be
made, thus giving both races a moral and
legal right 10 admission to the association. The
first resolution considered the refusal to admit
colored members 'es contrary to the principles
upon which the institution is based.n aud it
condemns the officers and members who Ravo
their sanction to such discrimination"
Thanks were rendered Dire. Jenckes and
Jeffery .for their manly and courageous stand
IN favor Of right and Christian honor.n and tho
society assures them that they shall ever be
held by it IL grateful remembrance"
Another resolution called upon the ministers
Of the city ITO their efforts, both in the pull
pit and in private life. to secure for colorad
young men admission TO the institution on the
Same footing as white young men.
The following expresses the purpose Of the So
ciety:
Resolved. That il any member Of this society APP
pes for admission 10 the association and is refused
every member shall feel himself obligated to assist
