The increaS' in the pO pular vote of
the state between the two last pre-
sidential elections exceeds by far
that of any previous four years dur
ing the existence of the state. The
increase of the vote of 1883 over that
of 1884 was 66,027; and largest IN
crease during any prevlops four years
was 40,C23, between 1872 and 1915.
Thus we see that instead of tax ing
any step backwards tie rapidity of
her substantial growth increases
with her age. Minnesota is Ill right.
She marches steadily on in the path
of progress and prosperity; seeing
this it is quite. natural that home
seekers be induced to settle within
| her borders. Hence it may with
reasonable certainty be predicted
that the four Years to come will
mark a period IN the growth of Min
"esOta's population Unexcelled in the
! history Of the past. So may 1T he.

to visit building which costs about
one million and compare it with their
own State capitol which costs about
three millions. Since our great dailies

won't our good friends of the country

The Ortonville Headlight devoted
a column Of it's space to the voting of
Bonds by the town of Clinton for
BHilding court house in case the
county seat is built there. According
TO the Headlight Clintonites are
splendid schemers. The voting of
these bonds means nothing at all, the
election was unauthorized by law
and there are other Irregularities
which would be fatal to the validity
of the bonds should the attempt be
ever made to issue them. And the
Headlight intimates that, knowing
thiF, the voters of Clinton were the
freer in doing the bonding act; simply
to use the favorable result as sop
to catch voters'in their contest for
the county seat.

kindly to the meat inspection law.
An important part of the business of
Moolhead butchers consisted of the
peddling meat in their sister city on

But row Fargo proposes to retaliate
on our meat inspection measure by

COnnecticut's Extinct Volcano.

Professor Davis, of Harvard University,
was telling a couple of friends in the
Brunswick Cafe the other evening of an
extinct volcano he discovered not long
ago near Meriden, Conn. While out
with Dr. Chaplin, of Meriden, investigat-
ing the mountains and valleys of the Nut
meg State he came across what has since
been a matter of great scientific interest.
The ash bed of an extinct volcano was
discovered between Meriden and the little
town of Berlin. The ash bed is an over
hanging cliff about twenty-five feet high
and fifty feet long and of a greenish
tingue. In describing it, he said: "On
the face of the cliff are occasional pockets
of quartz crystals, some of which shade
to amethyst and some to rose. Another
feature of the cliff is the prevalence of
roundish stones, varying from one to four
feet in diameter. These were the bombs,
in geological parlance, and were portions
of the trap rock which were elected from
the active volcano. Another exceedingly
interesting object was a small portion of
the sandstone bed twisted and contorted
by the action of heat and pressure"
Many scientists have visited the scene
of his discovery and they unite in saying
that there was nothing else of its nature
this side of the Rocky Mountains. The
volcano which produced the phenomenon
must have been extinct thousands of years
ago.-Neio York star.
