NEWSPAPER MUTATIONS.
Madison Press: The good people
at the east are already setting up t, g
cry that Sitting Bull was murdered.
Our dear frit Is "down east may call
it by any name they please. He's
lead and that's the pleasant feature
of the whole Business.
st. Peter Herald: The Gaylord Hub
is authority for the statement that the
editors of the Arlington Enterprise
and Arlington Republican came to-
gether recently and had set-to which
resulted in the carrying away of one
of them on a shutter. This sounds
like business. If you don't like your
contemporary kill him with club.
But spare the constituents.
Todd County Argus: If it is good
policy for the farmer to pay ten cents
more for an article to local dealer las
we believe it is) than to a wholesale
house in Chicago or any other city and
thus help to build up the home insti-
buttons, then it is certainly good poll
cy to buy goods in this country rather
than to send your cash to help build
up foreign country. In the enc, you
send your money to help build up the
city and aiding to centralize matters at
the expense of your own community,
and in the other, you are sending your
money to foreign land to build that
up at the expense Of your own country.
"a colony of beavers on the Little
Cannon river above Cannon Falls"
says the GAINESVILLE Argus, lis att act
ing much attention. Hon. W. E. Poe,
who lives only about thrce-quarters of
mile distant, vouches to the Red
Wing Republican for the statement
that they recently cut off a poplar
which measured fifty-two inches in
circumference, dragging the severed
portion into the river. The size of this
colony has never been ascerta;ned, as
no one has been able to see them at
work, but from the operations they
have performed it is quite evident
that there is a considerable number
In one place they have damned the
river so as to turn the water flow upon
an adjoining marsh. The section
around them is filed with tree stumps
the tops of which they have severed
Red Wing Advance Sun: Saturday
was great day for the Prairie Island
Indians great in all that the wcrG
implies. Robert Hinton, of Birch
Cooley, state Indian agent for tie
Sioux, was in town, and he was here
so- the purpose of distributing the frs
in ,tallment of the $1,000 appropriated
by the last congress for the ma:nten
ance and support of the Medavakauto1
Sioux. Mr.. Hinton did not distribute
any money but he purchased al
abundance of flour, meats, provisions
and some clothing for the wards O.
Uncle Sam and rather surprised some
of them by his actions, it being the
first occasion on which these Indians
had received anything substantial il
this line from the government. He III
vited a number of them to dine with
him at Hotel de Batlo, and they, with
out exception, conducted themselve:
there in a manner that would have pu
to shame many of their pale face breth
rem.
Window Reporter: The Allianc;
men Of the Northwest are the ranl
and file of the republican party, ant
are as loyal to the loyal principles o.
The republican party as they eve
were, but they are not loyal to the me1
who haye obtained control of the party
machinery. They are not loyal to thu
Washburns and Merriams and the les
ser lights who run and control tn,
county conventions with an arbitrar,
will, nor are they loyal to the railroad
threshing machine and reaper trusts
to which SO many of the public mel
owe allegiance, The farmers of tn
Northwest are alliance men to breal
away from combinations of capital
not to serve the partisan demands O
the democratic party" though tina
party is very anxious to have the ALI
ance just strong enough to enable de
mocracy to obtain control of the gov
eminent. The farmers want fair pla,
in politics, before the law and every
where else. * It is not allianc
victory that the country has anything
to fear from, but democratic victor,
which may be brought about by tn
Republican disaffection developing il
to the alliance movement.
Luverne News: It is quite general
ly conceded that there should be Law
to reach mortgages on real estate a
personal property for the purposes o
assessment and taxation. The mort
gage is lien on real estate, and it i
hard to see why the owner of the en-
numbered property should pay the Ia
