CYRUS CORRESPONDENCE
EDITOR Sun:

EDITOR Sun:
The late republican Congress has
done it, and will do 1t again if they
have chance. Why, what next will
they do? The Hon. James Cavenaugh
said once in a speech at Preston,
MIMI, that the republican party was
not only the know nothing, but the
good for nothing. and do nothing
party. I think he made mistake
when he said the do nothing. Scratch
the "do nothing" out and they show
fine record. The republican party
repealed tho presumption and timber
culture laws. They made laws tying
up nearly one half the Government
lands for railroad purposes. They en-.
acted laws enabling railroads to hold
their lands free from taxation. They
saddled onto us the high tariff. The
republican power holds the indem.
nifty land from settlers. Now, Mr..
republican. you who hold the power
in the Executive, Interior, Legisla'
tive, and all other departments. why
don't you open these indemnity lands
for the benefit of poor settlers!
If the rlill Dad companies can show
that they are entitled to this much
land to make up for losses, give them
land somewhere else, and not disturb
the squatters. Many settlers do not
understand the land laws. l would
sa y to such, all applications made
prior to March 3rd, 1891 can be COM
pleted under the old law, provided
such entry does not trespass on some
previous filing.
l am in possession Of a commission.
er's letter Of August. 1889, which
says, ga person failing to appeal
from an adverse decision within the
prescribed time for such appeal. may
afterwards appeal by showing suffi-
cient cause for neglect. and filing a
new application for the same land.
Settlers will understand that they
must file under the homestead law, as
the presumption and timber culture
laws are repealed. Parties wishing
TO enter under the homestead law can
do so before any Clerk of Court in the
district where the land is located. l
am in possession of over 400 names
and descriptions of lands in Stevens,
Big Stone and Swift Counties, where
the cases were decided against the
settlers, subject to appeal within 80
days.
But the law is all ON one side, and
will never be better until an honest
set of lawmakers are placed in power.
If any person making application
through me has failed to receive his
papers, will please write me, and !
will have it Strengthened up.
Yours truly,
K. J. HUsEvoLD, Agent,
Cyrus, Pope Co., MINI.

At the Universal Exposition of 1889, at Paris,
France, the best sewing machines of the world,
including those of America, were in competition.
They were passed upon by jury composed of
the best foreign mechanical experts, two of whom
were the leading sewing machine manufacturers
of France. This jury, after exhaustive examina-
ton and tests, adjudged that the Wheeler &
Wilson machines were the best of all. and award
ed that company the highest prize offered-the
GRAND PRfZE-giving other companies only
gold, silver and bronze medals.
The French government as further recogni,
ton of superiority, decorated Mr.. Nathaniel
Wheeler president of the company, with the
Cross of the Legion of Honor-the most priced
honor of France.
The No. 9, for family USE and the No, r. for
manufacturing uses, are the best in the world
to-day.

Sheriff Munro has quite an interest
ing boarder now. He was brought
here by the Sheriff of Traverse
County on Saturday. He stole horse
from D. Warmer, Of Taylor, Trav-
erse Comfy, and struck out for Fer.
gus Falls, and on his way held up two
farmers at the muzzle Of a six shoot
er, but they had not a red, so he went
on his course.
Sheriff Hopkins, of TraverseCounty,
made chase, and on coming to farm
house where three men stood in the
yard made inquiry, when one of them
said the man had passed the night be-
fore. The sheriff continued his
course toward Fergus. When near
that town the farmer overlook him,
and said one of the men with him in
the yard was the horse thief. Sheriff
Hopkins, taking the Sheriff of Otter
Tail with him. turned back and dis
covered the fellow making for the
woods. A rife shot admonished him
to surrender, which he did, giving up
his SIX shooter. He gave his name as
Charles Murphy, but the Sheriff rec
ognized him as John Friend, of
Tara, the son of respectable parents.

CONSUMPTION Cured.


An old physician, retired from
practice, having had placed in his
hands by an East India missionary
the formula of a simple vegetable
remedy for the speedy and permanent
cure of Consumption, Bronchitis,
Catarrh, Asthma and all throat and
Lung Affections, also positive and
radical cure for Nervous Debility
and all Nervous Complaints, after
having tested its wonderful curative
powers in thousands of cases, has felt
it his duty to make it known to his
suffering fellows. Actuated by this
motive and a desire to relieve human
suffering, will send free of charge,
to all who desire it, this recipe, in
German, French or English, with full
directions for preparing and using.

We have observed for long time
past large number of notices of I'M
paid box rent in the letter boxes of
the post office. The matter is so small
that many people think it not worth a
thought; others think 1t is part of
the post masters salary, and he can
wait until they are ready. This is a
mistake. The post master has to pay
for every box oat Of his own pocket.
Mr.. Newell had to do it, and Mr..
Randall will have to; and though the
amount to an Individual is very small,
like the subscription to newspaper,
yet the aggregate is heavy on the in
diVidual who has to stand it all.
We call attention to this matter,
believing that it is only an omission,
that will be at once remedied. To be
postmaster of this town is no sinecure
and the incumbent is worthy of his
full wages.

just two weeks after her husband.
The local papers speak of her as a

We would advise the boys who
make practice of breaking picket
fences around town to keep a sharp
lookout; they will get into trouble be
fore they know it. People spend
money to beautify their homes, and
they will not submit to be so i'm.
posed on. We have noticed several
fences damaged in this way, particu.
larry the one surrounding the Catholic
Church and grounds. To desecrate
church property IS even worse thar
private residences. A word to the
wise is sufficient. We hope the boys
will keep themselves out of trouble

The fax industry, of which so much
is said, is proving to be, in the hands
of experienced men, rich source of
income. A few Of Goodhue County's
stirring men have tried it for few
years in Redwood and Brown Coun.
ties, where good lands sell from so an
acre upward. They have bought
there from eighty to one hundred and
sixty acres Of wild land, paving from
5000 to 800 down and agreeing to
break upon the same reasonable
amount the first year and put 1t into
fax. Last season Frank Phillips
broke twenty-three acres, put it into
Hav, and sold the crop for 1926. An
other realized over $500, and a third
over 81, 300. A. Benham, of this city,
has purchased in these counties with
in the last few years over ten thous-
and acres of land. Six years ago he
built SIS, 900 worth of buildings upon
the same, and last year in the neigh
borhood of forty thousand bushels
of fax was raised on new breaking on
this tract. BY May LIST of this year
