CHEAP BINDING IWINE.
A Member or the Committee In-
vcstigating the Matter, Un-
officially Reports.
It Could Be Made at the Still
water Prison at q Cost Not
Exceeding 8 Cents.

MINNEAPOLIS, May 13.--Farm, Stock
and Home, an agricultural paper OF this
city, is in receipt of on unofficial report
from one Of the committee recently sent
East to reinvestigate the subject of man
ufacturing binding twine at the state
prison. 1t viii be remembered that r.
j. Hall, president of the state Farmers
Alliance, recently asserted that plant
capable of making 2,500 pounds Of twine
daily could be placed in the prison for
less than 20,000, that there was plenty
Of room and power there for the accom-
mediation and operation, and an abund-
ance of labor sufficiently int tlligent and
skillful to perform the necessary manual
labor. This claim differed so radically
from the report OF the commissioners
appointed by the governor last summer,
which was that it would require from
81 ,000, 900 to 81, COG, COO to erect the plant,
and it would then be aquestion whether
the state could furnish the twine at lower
prices than private manufacturers were
doing it. The new committee has now
been East some two weeks. and letter
from one of It's members, written at
Paterson, N, j., is the first news received
from it. The writer states that the
committee has visited the plant at
Paterson and watched the process of
manufacture from beginning to finish,
and has been fully acquainted with cost
of plant, etc, A ball Of twine made in
the presence Of the committee is sent
also. The letter concludes: The tow of
which this twine is made cost, at Patter-
son, cents, and ii can be manufactured
into twine for / cents, SO it might be
furnished at Saltwater at cost not to
exceed 6 cents = pound. Freight to any
part of Minnesota on Dakota of cent
makes it net more than cents The
Sample sent runs about 500 feet to the
pound, but it is considerably heavier
than is necessary.

A reliable Democrat of high character who
lives in Jasper Burks' town Harrington
tells us it is his belief that from five to seven
hundred Democrats in st. Francois county
will scratch Burks' name from their tickets
and not vote for anybody for State Senator
and that two or three hundred will not only
scratch Burks but vote for kossuth Weber
if Weber is Burks' opponent. jackson
Cash Book,
1t is mighty poor Democrat who
will scratch the nominee of his party
and vote for Republican, and the
paper that delights in giving publicity
to and stirring up dissatisfaction in
the Democratic ranks is valuable only
as an aid to the party of Force Bills,
High Taxes, and Blocks ofFives. The
capital town of Cape county is sadly
in need of a good, reliable Democratic
paper.

1t pleases some Republican editors
to insinuate that McMullin of the
HilIsborO Democrat is the beneficiary
of the late robbery of the Jefferson
county treasury. Yet not one of them
but must admit in private converse
ton that no past act of McMullin's
warrants any other conclusion that
he is an honest man; that they would
trust to his word in any business
transaction; and that there is not a
particle of evidence in support of their
miserable, contemplate, dishonorable
insinuations. We submit that they

COiOred Society Notes.

Thirty eIght pupils reported for duty at
the schoolhouse during the first week. They
were kindly received by the teacher, who
treasured them that he would do all that he
could to make the term a profitable one to
all. In order TO do this there must be above
all regularity in attendance, obedience and
diligence on the part OF the pupils. sympathy
with the teacher on the part of the parents
and the assistance of the children at home in
preparing their lessons. A teacher with the
above implements of success in his hands
cannot and will not fail to do his duty. The
attention of the children and their parents
were also called to the recent improvements
made by the board upon the schoolhouse,
the outside having received two coats of
paint, the blackboards, windows and the
front steps also having been repaired was
spoken of as an indication that the school
board was interested in the welfare of the
school. All careless or malicious breaking
of windows or damaging Of property by pu-
pills or others will be reported to the COM
mittee by the teacher. The parents or guilty
party will have the said damages to pay for
or be dealt with according to law.

About two years ago, after suffering
for nearly two years from rheumatic
govt, being able to walk only with great
discomfort, and having tried various
remedies, including mineral waters,
without relief, I saw by an ADVERTISE
ment in a Chicago paper that man had
been relieved of this distressing COM
plant, after long suffering, by taking
Ayers Sarsaparilla. I then decided to
make trial of this medicine, and took
it regularly for eight months. I am
pleased to say that it effected a COM
plete cure. and that I have since had no
return of the disease"

too much in praise of this well-known
medicine"
