UPPER TENS.

VIC overheard o remark made the other
day. carelessly made of course, but II
furnished us with text for small talk.
A friend was inviting another to attend the
masonic ball at st. Lawrence, il was to be
q very select affair he said and he wanted
the Miller bon tons to be there In good
shape. II Is more than likely the masons
did not consider il select In the sense
named-their accommodations were too
limited to give public dance--but the
point We wish to make is this: There is
no upper crust society in this country.
The idea Of there being an upper ten el-
ement is ridiculous. 1t becomes meriily
ludicrons to conceive of such class when
all know themselves and their neighbors
are groaning under mortgages long past
due. This is no discredit only It shows
how aristocracy may be burlesqued. II Is
pleasant to see people nicely dressed and
1t is proper. but it betrays large degree
OF mental vacuity in one who endeavors
to work the exclusive" racket In society
in q western ceaatry town like THIS. The
breadth between the eyes is sure to be
coptacted in such o person aud he would
be in0apacitatsd TO Judge the difference
between grammatical error and q brndle
COW. The anly qualification necessary to
the ''entree" Of good society in this coun-
ty at present is good character and good
behavior. II should count nothing
whether the gentleman wore felt boots and
the lady calico dresa, or patent leather
pumps and silk plush.

BOARD OF TRADE.

Madison 10 after the Capital in earnest,
Her citizens met one evening recently TO
che number Of 40, and each pllnked
down $500 TO be member of the Board
Of txsde. A pretty good start for one
evening. II would take Miller just ten
evenings TO get out that many citizens
who really meant business. There seems
to be sort Of superstition about ,ard Of
trade for this town. Two sr three attempts
have been made 70 eject m orGan,zatiop,
bat each time it.has lssAn.a faiiCss. Wheth-
er Miller has any capital aspiretions or
not she ought to have good board Of
trade. which can improve the town in n
thousand ways. We are inclined to
think the past failures may be Attributed
to the tact that sur citizens though. a
board of trade Ought to bs run ON wind.
The Madison idea of $500 membership
fee would make IN active and elective
board Of trade In Miller. That such things
are necessary for the prosperity of towns
and cities has been demonstrated 30 often
that no well Informed man now ques-
tiOus It.

Thsre is nothing &c cheap in the North
west just now ~ farming lands. says the
Northwest Magazine, whether cultivated
or uncultiyated. The next active move
ment In real estate will be In land. not in
town lots. The cities and towns have had
their speculative boom; now 1t is the turn
OF the country. Land In Minnesota and
Dakota can be had to-day for lower prices
than were paid Ave years ago. This state
Of things will not last much longer. Pop
ulstios in the United States 10 increasing
