COCK A DOODLE 100000.
Nurr;.h for Hall aud Stevens
County.

Last week, at the largest State
Alliance meeting ever held in the
state. II. J. HILL, practical farmer
of Stevens county, was elected Presi'
dent for the coming year: over wire
workers, politicians and schemers.
The farmers could not have given a
better proof that they meant bust
ness. The great fear of their friends
WAS, that the alliance men would be
led hy the nose 10y st. Paul politi-
clans; but this one act proves that
they are men. and not set Of puppets
10 be played on the wires.
1t was highly proper that they
should elect farmer, and they could
not have chosen better man for the
place. Mr.. Hall is level headed
man, cool under every circumstance
in which he may be placed, and firm
in his convictions Of what he be-
HeYes to be right; and he is generally
right His feet are firmly placed on
the platform on which all farmers
and friends of farmers and working
men should stand, viz: Equal righte
to farmers with rail road, elevator
and all other men of every guild
| THIS is all farmers want; and they
look now as if they meant to have it
The best thing the farmers coult
do now, would be to send Mr.. Hall tt
the legislature. If there was Il legis
Iature composed of such men i
would be Il leetle improve ment On tn

This done 1 would \-aa-o5 to
those of our merchants who still
persist in CARRYING road stocks, to
close out this mixture and open up in
special lines; there is a first rate open
ing in Morris for an exclusive Dry
GuUd3 store, and also exclusive Boot
and Shoe stores, with stores of this
kind a good deal Of trade that is now
under the present system of doing
business forced way from own,might
he kept ut home; besides, stores of
this kind would attract and draw a
good deal of trade from distance,
neIghboring towns &c. To illustrate,
under the present system, lady
enters what she supp0ses to be Il Dry
G rods store and inquiries for a certain
d!esS goods, the dealer politely an.
sMeTs that he don't possess the kind
she desires, but has just received
some very nice new herring and some
mems pants, bat this does not interest
Der for she is not after herring ner
yet mems pants. It's address, she wants
hence is obliged 10 send off to the
city for il. With the same kind Of
mixtures that is kept in stores at
Hancock, D9nneliy and Cyrus, what
inducement is it for people in those
places to come to Morris to trade.
Now take it IN my line, clothing for
instance sell more goods in this line
outside OLA radius of Is miles than
l do inside; frequently have Gus
tumers coming in on these different
60 miles to buy suit of clothes, and
wig do they do so, not because cloth
ing is not kept at all these road
stores where they come from, all of
them keep trunk full more or less
yet have no assortment to select Oh
81 tit from, hence they come to
si6rris, where they know there is au
exclusive clothing store, and where
they Can get Just what they want.
With an exclusive Dry Goods store Or
two in Morris, tlrat would keep moth
ing but drygoods, but have everything
in that line, people would come the
same distance to purchase dry goods,
and this sending off to,the cities fol-
dress goods would be thing of the
past, but that is not all, an exclusive
dealer can always buy goods to better
advantage than general dealer, he
can buy a good deal cheaper.
Respectfully,
CHAs. WILSON.

WIS laid out wrong to begin with, no
lot should ever have been plated Sc

see any reason that because the first
building put up in Morris to face the
depot. that all buildings forever here
after must be put up along the L. R
track, and leave nice cross streets
vacant. In looking cut of the
office and parlOr windows Of our new
Hotel the other day, could not hell
but notice on the opposite side thu
road, that old dingy looking elevator

this does not present very attrac

The Senators are some of them
talking Of forgetting the newspaper
men because they refuse to tell how
they find out what is done in the
alleged secret sessions. The Senate
will do we'll to go very slow in this
matter because there is possibility
that the newspapers of the country
might retaliate by boycotting the
Senate, and if they did the temper
allure would be pretty low in the
north. end of the Capitol building.
The newspapers can exist without the
Senate, but 1t is by no means certain
that the Senate can exist without the
newspapers. -

Secretary Regain uttered Il sound
truth, and one that is worthy of the
most careful consideration when in
opposing a bill to Increase the pension
Of 4 generals widow to 500 Il month,
he said: "Instead of this Government
beng one of the people foT the people
and by the people, it is rapidly be-
coming Government of the classes
for the classes and by the classes. =
This is a true bill, there is entirely
too much class legislation in this
country, and it is on the Increase all
the time, and it remains for the
people to stop it. Now they have
the power, but if the interference is
delayed too long the classes will be
stronger than the people.
