InspectiOn of co g.

The following from the St. Paul Dis
patch shows how the inspection Of Co. G
struck their reporter: .~> ..-.4
On Modday evening the inspection of
Company G, located at Austin, took
place. There were forty.seyen men in
line, six being absent and accounted for
making total strength of the company
of fifty.three men. The company has
been suffering for want of cOmmandent
for the past two years, the former cap
tain, Trowbridge. having spent most of
his time out of the city. His success.
sor, Capt j A. Sands, recently elected,
is an ex-otficer of the New York State
National Guards, and during the short
time he has been in command of the
company he has made marked change in
its career of advancement He has in
structed his men in the proper observance
of salutes and military courtesies, and in
another year will have command that
will stand up among those Of the states
best. In the drill the company IS far
from perfact, but it has been started in
the right direction and will be creditably
represented at the encampment next
month. The condition OF the arms and
accoutrements of the company was found
to be good, but the guns showed wear
and tear and neglect. The two other
commissioned officers of the company
are fairly we'll posted, and the command
has first sergeant that has few equals in
the national guard of the state in the
matter of clearly understanding his du-
ties and executing them properly and with
military precision.
Company A. Of New Ulem, and com.
pany H. of Blue Earth City will probably
be mustered out of the regiment.

The Champion Binders and Mowers.

Made by the Warder, Bushnell & Gless
ner Co. and advertised in our columns
are the most perfect machines for cutting
and binding of grain and the cutting of
grass as we'll as the most durable harvest
inc machines made. Farmers know the
advantage of having first-class machinery,
the kind that does not break down or
cause them annoyance and delay in
harvest, and the Champion machines are
that kind.
The Warder, Bushnell s. Glessner Co.
were among the first manufacturers to
make harvesting machines. The Cham
pions are not untried candidates for
public favor; they are used by our best
farmers and have long had the reputation
for doing more work and of better quality
and lasting longer than any other
machines of this class. 5.

A Law that Is Violated

In his charge to the grand jury at
the opening of court ut Great Falls on
Monday, Judge Bach ssid;-
"There Is a law that has been vio-
lated In this county, and perhaps In
every county Of this territory, during
the last six months-that is a law
which was passed to protect q large
class of property owners who are more
or less at the mercy OF evil doors, evil
minded or earelessly disposed people;
a law which makes 1t q crime Of a
grave nature to wilfully destroy any
range by fire. Some Of you, no doubt,
have suffered considerably during the
past six months through prairie fires.
l understand there is possibility OF
tracing some Of these fires 10 the evil
doors; II that is SO let me assure you OF
this fact that q trial or even one
indictment and especially M convic.
tIon would do more to make men
careful upon the ranges, do more &C
stop the ~propensities Of evil-ders than
all the laws that have been posted by
