State Insurance Commissioner Bailey
remarked that the total risks of these
companies for 1887 were $222, 1871 ,666
and their premiums totaled Sc, los, 074.'
%. The losses equaled "A per cent Of
the premiums. The figures for 1888 are
more reasuring. The total risks run up
to $237 ,603, 1856, and premiume $3.50,
239.22. The losses, however, only equal
55 per cent of the premiums, a reduc-
ton of % per cent on the preceding
year. The mutual companies exhibit
the most gratifying results, for whereas
their losses of 1887 equaled 100 per cent
of their premiums, last year they mere
ly reached IL per cent.
1t NAV not be generally known that
February was remarkable as being the
coolest month of the winter, something
that has not happened before in Minne-
sofa in many years. January is usually
the coolest month, but the mean tenn
perature of last month was below that of
January and was degrees below the
normal February mean for is years.
The range of temperature for the state
was 97.5 degrees, the minimum being

FOR NEW MANUFACTURES.

The Board of Trade meeting Monday
was mostly devoted to discussion OF
the manufacturing outlook for this city.
An Aberdeen, OAK, dispatch to the
Pioneer Press was read, giving an account
of the organization of Business Mems
Association there to secure new manu-
factories, advertise the city, secure fav-
orable transportation rates, new roads,
etc. The membership fee was placed at
$50 and an annual fee of $40 charged.
The proceeds of these are to be devoted
to fund from which bonuses, etc., will
be paid to accomplish the objects of the
association. Mr.. III. P. Christensen,
who brought up the matter, favored
forming such an association in Mankato,
but preferred issuing stock at $40 share,
to be assessed as bonuses are needed.
This is somewhat after the plan of SIM
liar organization at Winona. The mat
ter was discussed and the general senti-
ment was that some action should be
taken to get new establishments to To-
cate in this city. Several members fav-
ored aiding our present manufactures
to enable them to increase their capaci-
ty. Mr.. Christensen moved that COM
mittee be appointed to formulate plan
for the organization of such an associa-
ton in Mankato. to report at the next
meeting of the Board. The chair APP
pointed the following committee: II.

NEW GROCERY FIRM.

Two of our well-known young men,
Messrs. James Door and o. 4. Richards,
ave formed partnership and will open
a grocery store about Friday. Their
store will be located in the north halfo
the Barr building, which is being par
titioned off for that purpose. Mr.. Nc
Connell will continue to occupy the other
half of the building. Both ofthese young
men have plenty of friends in the city
and throughout the county and as their
acquaintance is a very extensive one
they should have large patronage from
the start. Mr.. Door has been in the
grocery business before and understands
it thoroughly. Mr.. Richards has lately
been employed in Frink & Richards
and is good salesman. Success TO the
firm.

whether he will or no. As they have
such an easy time of it running the
Democratic party they propose to ex'
tend their bossing procliyities to take

Mr.. ii. c. Gerlach has drawn plans
for the following buildings, which are to
be erected this spring: 81 900 cottage

g, 300 for 7. S. Hay, at Vernon Center;

the roof was badly burned, involving a
loss of not to exceed 500. The fire was
extinguished by the West Mankato COM

"A very pleasant event occurred last
evening at the residence of Mr.. and

BLUE EARTH BREEDERS.
A Rochester Horseman Sizes Up
Some Promising Stock.

+. A. James, of Rochester, Mimi,
writes to the st. Paul Globe: "Permit me
to record in your horse columns some
impressions gained during recent visit
to two OF the breeding establishments
of Blue Earth county. Rochester is
naturally proud of her fine horses, and
well may she be, for she has many fine
specimens, both speedy and speed
producing, as well as draft horses, sec
ond to none. My recent trip, however,
convinces me that we have no mean ri
val, and congratulate Blue Earth coun-
ty and her breeders. 1t was my priyi-
lege to visit the farm of the well known
breeder and dealer in draft, coach and
trotting bred horses and Shorthorn cat
tie, e. ii. Piper. Here / was shown
several specimens of draft stations,
among which was native-born from
the farm of Geo. E. Case, St. Peter.
which, IN my opinion, excelied in vi
tality any of the imported ones. The
coach borses are beauties, and are be-
getting cats that are both an honor and
credit to their sires as we'll as the iudp-
ment of the men who selected them
At the Linden farm, owned by the ge-
nial.Dr. &c. Curryer, of Lake Crystal,
i was shown the trottipg-bred stallion
Renshaw, sired by Onward, dam Pa
repa, said by some to be the best brood
mare in Kentucky. was prepared not
to like this horse, from remarks | had
heard about him, and at first sight l was
not disappointed, for he did not make a
favorable impression-low in stature
but upon careful and close examination
l am convinced that he is a great horse.
Such muscular power, such remarkable
vitality, such lung power, such action,
such intelligence, such nerve force, is
seldom, if ever, seen combined, and he
is destined to make his mark if he has
not already done 80. Among the nu.
merous weanlings shown | have never
seen such uniformity of conformation
and trotting action. and there was not
one but the most skeptical could but
pronounce trotter already. / doubt if
there is another stallion in the state that
can show as many with such uniformity
Of speed from unframed colts as thisI
same Renshaw. Next l was shown the
Four-year-old stallion De Leon, by Pre-
lender, by Dictator, dam by King Rena.
This is small, active stallion, evidently |
made of sinew and whalebone. For
style and finish he can hardly be ex-
,elled. His trottlng action is simply su-
perb. He impels himself through the |
lir with such elasticity, swlftness and |
Ease that one instinctively wonders
where his power comes from. The doc
or also showed us some colts by De |
leon, which certainly are credit to their
IRE, and barring accidents, will make a |
mark of their own. Altogether I am
we'll pleased with my trip, and 1 must |
the doctor upon his happy |
of these two stations.

ANOTHER NEW BLOCK.

Arrangements have been completed
for the early erection of three-story
business block by Schiller Lodge, 1.
o. o. F. The building will probably be
located on North Front street between
Wagon Bros butcher shop and Kraus'
saloon. 1t will be of brick. The third
floor will comprise hall or lodge room
for the owners of the building. The
first floor will be large store. The
lodge has for some time contemplated
the erection Of a building and the deter
minatlon to proceed with 1t this year is
gratifying. The location selected is a
good one. Architect Gerlach has pre-
pared Che plans and the building is to
cost $500.

The Popular Approval.

While we may not believe in the truth
of the old saying "Vox Popuii; Vox
Del" in all cases, yet the popular ap-
proval is worth good deal to any man
or enterprise, and while 1t is sometimes
bestowed on unworthy objects, yet gen.
orally the public gives Its voice only to
that which has real merit. To the poll
tician popular approval is the breath of
life; to the manufacturer 1t means sue
cess and dollars; to the professional man
il is in great degree necessity; and
we'll, everybody likes it. Railroads are
always anxious to secure it, and make
great efforts to do so. THE Burlington,
since its advent in the Northwest, has
kept steadily in view the good will of
the travelling public, and now has fully
gained the popular approval, as the
most elegant and comfortable line from
Minneapolis and st. Paul to Chicago and
st. Louis. For information as to rates,
and for maps, etc., address w. J. G.
