A ALUABlE EXCURSION

Last winter was bad one. To give
it its dues it was bad enough, The
press of the East malicicusly and for
the purpose of staying for a time
until the plain truth would become
known-magnified ia the greatest pos
sible manner the true condition of
things out west. BY many of the
metropolitan papers the truth was SO
exaggerated that to anyGf any there
beg who believe their reports of our
last winters snow storm it must seem
a miracle that any of Es ever saw the
blooming spring. OF course these
false reports sent broadcast over the
world had the desired result to a Ger
tain extent and as a consequence i'm
migrs ton to the Great Northwest
has been in depressed condition
this spring. To obviate this and re.
lieve the west of the burden thus
wrongfully and uniustly placed upon
it, there was planned an excursion
through the very region that has been
80 venomously assaulted consisting of
gentlemen who are we'll qualified to
judge for themselves, from personal
observation and inquiry, gust what
this country is.
The excursion party passed through
Morris last Thursday and stopped
long enough to visit some of the prin
cipal farms near town. In the party
was Hon. N. J. Coleman, U. 8. Com.
missioner of Agriculture, and about
twenty-five editors of the most prom
inent agricultural journals of the U.
| S. There were Orange Judd, Prairie
Farmer, Chicago; A. W. Cheever.
New England Farmer, Boston; G. D
Colman, Rural World, st. Louis; w.
FL. Lawrence, Ohio Farmer, Cleve.
land, O.; w. Atkinson, Farm Jour.
| nal, Philadelphia, Milton George and
D. w. Wood. Western Burial, Chica-
go, and J. B. Common, Indiana Farmer
indianapolis, Ind. Besides these
were the officers of the road and
several representatives of the north
western agricultural press. They
stayed at Hancock two hours and
visited the Bull Farm there.
After visiting all the principal
farms and farming centers West and
North theI party returns to st. Paul,
via St. Cloud arriving there about the
10Th. inst. When each gets home we
may expect to get few honest opin-
ions from capable men on the pros.
poets and advantages Of the West,
and there need be ne fear that they
will be anything but complimentary
and encouraging,

CLEVELAND AND THUR
MAN.

And with this ticket the democrats
will fight tor another four years OF
reform administration, with every
assurance of success. Never in the
history National politics has the rep
resentative of any party occupying
the presidents chair been so unani-
mously the choice Of his party for
second term as was Grover Cleveland
at the St. Louis convention. The
wild enthusiasm that greeted his
nomination of itself was fit express
Of the appreciation by his party of his
worth as a public servant. With his
honesty of purpose and fearless in the
discharge of his duty he has given us
an administration which will place
him in our future history among the
greatest of her presidents.
And Allen G.. Thurman! The
noblest Roman of them all! A citl'
zen than whom no other has a warmer
place in the hearts of his conntrymen,
occupies second place on the ticket.
lie was opposed by Gov. Gray, of In
diana, but so strong was he with his
party that he received 712 votes out
of possible S12. Even his most rad
ical political opponents have none but
words of honor and praise for him.
1t'swith such men that the democracy
enters what promises to be one of the
greatest political battles ever known.
They will fight to win, and win they
will. Cleveland has a running mate
worthy of his steel, while he himself
is stronger before the country than
four years ago. Then why should We
fear that success will not be ours.

This is what the Grant Co. Herald.
one Of the most influential republican
journals in this state, thinks Of the
democratic presidential ticket:
.sCleveland and Thurman constitute
the presidential ticket of the Demo
cratic party. Thurman is one of the
purest men of the republic and has
fought monopolIes all his life. The
only objection to his candidacy
that can be raised by republicans is
that he is associated with the Demo
cratic party. There is no gainsaying
the fact that the ticket Is 2 very
strong one.

Amss' ''last dog is hung" not be-
cause Mike Doran has succeeded in
downing him but for other reasons
that count for more than this. He
had many friends who would have
stuck to him through thick and thin
had he taken more conservative
course in this campaign, but who
have lost all hore for him on account
of his many breaks of late. The
democrats want leader who can be
depended upon to represent the DEM
ocracy with stability and respectable
ity and who Will dignity the party
by his candidacy for tho governor
