March came in like lion.
Jerry Woodman was in town on Sat
urday receiving congratulations from his
numerous friends on the winding up of
his protracted law suit.
Frank Robbins, former Eagleite, has
has received his commission as post-mas-
ter at Hansen or Bertram, as the post
office is named.
Mr.. Dettler, one of southeast Round
Prairie's staunch farmers, who has lately
returned from an extended visit to Ger
many, was in town displaying a splendid
set of silver chimes on his horses, each
chime containing three bells decorated
with two tassels of white and blue horse
hair. They were a curiosity and drew
quite a crowd.
The Hansen branch of the q. B. church
attended a quarterly meeting here on
last Sabbath, presiding elder officiating.
F. Rowe, of the firm of Townsend &
Rowe of Sank Centre, was in town on
Monday on business.
Our energetic merchant, S. N. Thomp-
son, closed a big deal in wood on Satur-
day, disposing of 1900 cords. Your cor
respondent did not learn to whom or at
what figure.
The pie sociable was very pleasant
affair, about thirty couples attending.
The question discussed at the church
under the auspices of the w. c. T. u, on
Tuesday of last week was, is high license
beneficial? Politics were to be ignored
but before they discussed much, politics
was the leading question.
About the most surprised man about
these parts was our worthy postmaster
who on going home on Thursday nigh,
tired and sleepy, found the house filled
with old friends, bound on having a big
time. It was the forty-third birthday O
Mr.. Scott, and his amiable spouse worked
like beaver to make the occasion aspleas
ant as possible. A generous lunch served
few songs sung, hearty hand shak,
all round, interspersed with good wishe.
for long and happy life. Thus ended
one of the most pleasant surprise partie.
in the history of our village.

THE strike of the engineers on the
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy railroad

THE strike of the engineers on the
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy railroad
continues. Hundreds of engineers have
been brought from the east to take the
place of the strikers, principally from the
Reading road, where a strike recently
failed because the Knights of Labor re-
fused to give it sanction. The Reading
engineers declare they will get even at
this time by taking the place of the recent
strikers. There are no evidences of yield
ing on either side. An unfortunate cir
cumstance occurred at Brookfeld, Mo-,
in the shooting of an engineer by dep
uty sheriff. Pistols were drawn by both
parties as the result of a quarrel, and the
deputy-sheriff claims he acted in self
defense.

tnat you might never see Such thing
again"
The sentiment that war isa "reHc of
barbarism" ,and-as a method of settling
international differences should, be
shelved with other obsolete relics ofdark-
er ages, is a growing one The idea of
arbitration is more be6tting modern civ
ilization.
But it is recognized that the sentiment
"Let us have peace" must be given a
broader meaning if its full benefit is to be
realized.
We see the cathololicity which the trend
of modern thought develops in the efforts
for the nnion of the churches, the striking
down of the barriers which have been a
hindrance to the advancement of the true
faith. .
1t is noticeable too, in the leniency,
growing yearly more marked, shown by
the medical schools toward each other.
Time was, when a practitioner of one
school willingly, if not gladly, noted the
death of a patient of physician of an
other school. The brotherhood of man.
ideas of the present day took no root in
the medical profession of quarter of a
century ago.
Now, physicians of the highest stand
ing admit, and dare publish to the world
their belief in the efficacy of that profess
sional bette noir, the proprietary med
icine. -.
The late DIR. ]. G. Holland, an educated
physician, some years ago wrote in
Scribner's Magazine, of which he was
editor: ut is fact that many of the
best proprietary medicines of the day are
more successful than many physicians,
and most of them were first discovered
and used in actual medical practice"
Millions of people all over the globe
confirm this statement
medical college of New York, in his pub
lished book, recommends the use of War
ner's safe cure in cases ofbright's disease,
and other kidney disorders, and says he
knows the remedy is used by leading
physicians. 1t not only cures kidney
disease, but the many other common
named diseases which would not prevail
were the kidneys sound. .
That great public teacher, DR.. Dio
Lewis, had the courage to write to the
proprietors of Warmers safe cure, after a
full investigation of its merits, "IfI found
myself the victim of a serious kidney
trouble, Ishould use your preparations. !"
The serious nature of kidney disorders is
that they are the real cause of nearly all
the diseases from which we suffer. If,
therefore, the kidneys are kept in health,
we shall escape all such diseases.
The world is growing more. tolerant as
intelligence increases; Grant but voiced
the growing sentiment, when he prayed,
Let us have peace" and Tennyson
builded better than he knew when he
wrote:
ring out old shapes of foul disease;
Ring out the narrowing lust of gold;
Ring out the thousand years of old;
Ring in the thousand years of peace"

THE board of county commissioners at
meeting on Wednesday appointed John
P. Hammered of St. Cloud, to be sheriff
of Stearns county, to fill out the unex-
pired term of late Sheriff Mickey. The
appointment can scarcely be considered

ment to the friends of Deputy Sheriff Doty
who should have been appointed on his
merits. But Mr.. Hammered is a more

If the republican party desires to show
its full strength at the polls next fall let
it take control of the primaries and con-
ventions, and not delegate its power, by
default of duty, to a few ambitious and
designing politicians. A genuine republi-
can platform made of such material as
characterized those of a few years ago,
which declared for such principles as
earned for the party the name of the
"high moral" with tickets made up of
its ablest and best men, will result in old
time victory. This pusilanimous quib-
bling and equivocal wabbling is not en-
titled to respect, and will not get it..
Leave that to the opposition, for it may
be safely trusted to do it. Let the repub-
ican party speak out just what it means
so plainly that he who runs may read
and he who stands and spells it out can
only make it read one way. When the
party did its political business on that
plan it never lacked for customers. Let
every plank be sound, planed on both
sides, sawed off squarely, and nailed
down firmly. Sucn aplatform will carry
a large majority. not only in Minnesota,
but throughout the Union. It was not
until democratic methods were adopted
that democratic results followed. A rep
clifton of mistakes would be worse than
criminal, it would be foolish.

THE PRESIDENTIAL OUTLOOK.

Of all the candidates now prominently
before the country as probable candi-
dates for the presidency, Senator Harri-
SON is, all things considered, the best
equipped for the position. Long service
in congress, ripe scholarship, thorough
knowledge OF public men,. and keen ap-
probation of national requirements, an
unsullied character and record fcon-
sistent patriotism and devotion to coun-
try first and party afterward-these are
among the elements which combine to
make him strong in himself and strong
with the nation. His popularity at home
is not Of the effervescing and evanescent
sort, but is of the nature of firm con-
viction on the part of those who know
him that he is sound to the core, reliable
in any emergency, and actuated by pure
motives and penetrating foresight.
Asan earnest ofhis patriotic devotion to
his country may be cited the fact that he
comes from long line of patriots and
statesmen who have rendered notable
services to the country. Hisgreat-grand-
father, Benjamin Harrison of Virginia,
was one of the signers of the Declaration
of Independence and was a patriot when
patriotism was perilous. His gland
father, Gen. William H. Harrison, Tppe-
canoe, distinguished himself both in mil
itary and civil life, and his father, Scott
Harrison, was man ofrare attainments
who sent his three sons to the late war,
and himself occupied a seat in congress.
Senator Harrison was nurtured in an
atmosphere of intense patriotism, and
imbibed as we'll as inherited that spirit
of br Dad nationalism which has always
characterized his public life. With him
the state of Indiana would be removed
from the doubtful column, and as the
canvass advanced there would be almost
as much enthusiasm aroused in his be-
half as characterized the campaign OF
hard cider and the log cabin. Elected he
would have the implicit confidence of his
party and the country at large, for his
qualifications are disputed by no party,
and in no section.
