COUNTY FAIR.

Owing to large amount of business
and important arrangements the Execu
tive committee has decided to meet at
the Farmers Insurance Office every
Friday afternoon until and after the
coming fair 1t is the intention of the
committee and officers of the association
to make every preparation necessary to
accommodate all exhibitors. The building
Of a new hall, especially for articles manu-
featured in their fair district is being con.
sidered as is also an extension Of the
horse stables.
A resolution has passed that no gamb.
ling be allowed upon the grounds, for
which the people of Mower county should
be proud There will be $500 in purses
for which there are many horses already
in training upon the grounds.
All parties wanting premium lists
should apply to the Secretary at once and
make their entries at an early day.

The Meat Law to be Fully Tested

The constitutionality Of the meat in
spection law will .be argued before the
supreme court at its October term; and ii
is not unlikely that there will be a great
array of the best legal talent Of the state
On tibet occasion. The case appealed is one
recently decided at Saltwater, where a
Wisconsin man was convicted of bring
ing quantity of fresh meat into Mime
sofa and selling it, contrary to the pro-
yisiona of the inspection law. It is in
tended to make this test case, and it
will be certified to the supreme court at
an early date. The papers are now
being prepared. 1t is also said that
another test case is to be made up at
Duluth and certified to the higher court,
but In view Of the constitutionality being
the main issue in the Saltwater case, it is
improbable that such course will be tax.
en-. 1t was impossible for an appeal tc
be taken by the state from the recent
decisions by Judges Stearns and Ensign
at Duluth, unless by stipulation with the
defendant, so that decision will not be
reversed by the appellate court.

FoR THE KING HTS or LABOR.

For THE TRANSCRIPT, In reading the
principles Of the Knights Of Labor in
your last issue, | see much to commend
and little to criticiso, hut No. 10 is the:
heighth OF unWisdom. It is as absurd as
the resolution Of a private man, that if
his house. burns, horses die and crops
are destroyed by hail he will bridge over
his difficulties with due bills but never
with interest bearing notes. There is
great danger that the increased prices OF
what he purchases with due bills will
over balance all the interest regained to
enable him to buy with cash II the dis,
count on due bills is greater than the In
terest on notes, to use due bills brings
loss. The use of due bills by the Govern
ment entails loss IN the purchase of goods
as in the case of q private man. but it
saves the interest and shoves the loss of
the discount onto its employees on all that
part of its expenditure which pays for
services already engaged. The rich con-
| tractor will not give something for moth
ing! What part of the discount he is not
able to unload onto the lahorer and far
mer he will charge into the price of his
goods before parting with them. But
the soldier, the sailor and the Govern
men clerk is in no such position. He
must continue to take his pay with its de-
creased purchasing power A further
evil effect would be the disturbance of
the standard of values. A fluctuating
standard always works to the Advantage Of
the man of wealth and the speculator,
and to the disadvantage of the poor man
and the man of staple investments. Dur.
ing the war of the Rebellion the Govern
ment borrowed at reasonable rate of in
terest all it possibly could and issued
legal tender for what expenditure could
not otherwise be met The evils were
great and long outllyed the war. Areso-
luton to multiply and intensity those
evils by relying upon that resource ex-
clusively for future necessities is not in
order.

RAPID TRANSIT

Until the time arrives when electric
railroads as means of rapid transit
have superseded the present system, we
must remain satisfied with it as it is. A
few short years ago people were satisfied
with the slow stage coach. requiring days
and weeks to make journey that now
consumes, comparatively speaking, but a
few hours. When the old four in hand
coach was succeeded by the locomotive
and cars propelled by steam then it was
thought the solution of rapid transit had
been discovered, but as time rolled on
and from six to sixty miles an hour, and
Some more, the traveller had been for
warded on his Journey then surely fast
travelling had reached its height But
who can tell in the near future, owing to
the discoveries in electricity, to what
rate Of speed we may attain, in flying
over the rails in perfect comfort and al
most complete immunity from accident.
At the present atime, however, the rail
road system of this country is almost
PtiASCI III I-S O1NdHlLutioI. + CIndDS
nowhere is this more fully exemplihed
than in the Northwest ror any place
where the comfort and safety of the
traveller is more carefully watched over.
Noticeably SO is this the case of the
officials of the Chicago. St. Paul & Kan
sas City Railway, whose watchfulness
over the the comfort and welfare of their
patrons has resulted in securing an i'm
mense patronage and placing their rail
road among the leaders. This railroad
is managed by experienced men, appoint
ed for their peculiar fitness for such
POSITIONS it is completelysequipped in
every department, and with everything
necessary 10 stamp it as first class line
every way. To all who intend travelling
III the Northwest we would advise them
to try the Chicago, St. Paul & Kansas
City Railway, and they will agree with
the writer in saying that it is luxury to
travel via this popular route.-Woman's
Illustrated World, July 81, 1889.

Cause for Anger.

The Liverpool Mercary relates an in
cident which shows how some English
landlords treat their tenants. A pros
porous farmer, who was desirous of
purchasing his holding, which has bee n
occupied by his family for three gerer-
ations, waited upon his landlord and
made known his desire, stating that he
had saved $500. Out broke the lands
lord lyon have saved $50 on INV
land L tell You what I'H 90 III
raise your rent .e1u0 year =, And be
did 1t. The rent was an impossible one.
The tenant had to turn from the house
in which he was born. and the farm
was offered for new occupation. ft had
to be let at 60 less rent than was actu.
ally being paid by the hereditary tenant,
but all attempts to conclude reasona-
bic arrangement on the part of the saw
ing farmer were useless. The landlord
thought be had rightly punished him
for his tmpudence. Cases like this are
arousing an angry feeling among Eng
lish tenant farmers.
