IHE PRIZE SING,

The projected mill between two
bruisers in ST. Paul last week has
drawn good deal of attention to the
prize ring. One member of the
athletic club said the stopping of the
Ryht by the authorities would do II
great Injury to st, Paul. We are OF
tire opinion that nothing Of late date
d 8 elevated st. Paul in the eyes Of
the country ald the world us much rs
4his same act of the authorities; and
Governor Merriam deserves the
thanks OF all law abiding citizens fOI
the firm stand he took in the matter.
What good can be accomplished by
the cultivation OF Stch brutal prac-
Nce we are at \ loss TO know. 1t can
pot bc claimed that it prepares men
for the defence of their country, for
the end Of nearly all the prize fighters
Is to become iIoated brutes, running
aow groceries In the lowest dens Of
cities.
If st. Paul will firmly maintain the
stand it has taken in this matter, it
1~iid shine forth IS beacon light for
all people seeking respectable home
in bright contrast with New Orleans,
San Francisco or other western cities,
AAich cater to tbs apgetites OF the
lowest and NEST degraded classes of
the country.

r ENDEYILL

AS was stated earlier In the season,
early sown grain is the best. There
has been but few years, during the
past ten that wheat has been more
promising for good crop than at the
present time in this vicinity. Farms
where the yield last year was only
5 bushels per acre, and in one fAstan-
&c where the yield was only IA
bushels per acre, are estimated to
yield from Is to 90 bushels per acre.
Barley is unusually good. The
writer has field of barley that is up
even with his shoulders, and there
are other fields in this vicinity nearly
as good as my fields.
Oats are a light crop. There are u
few good fields Of oats, but generally
they are thin and full Of pigeon grass.
Jhe crops are good here, also East,
Northeast and South, but North as
far as the Southern part of Otter
Tail Co., and West into Dakota it is
very dry and crops are POOR. In
many places they are so poor that
farmers think they are not worth
harvesting, and they are blowing
them under.
Corn is growing rapidly and is good
color, but it is so late that unless We
have very late fall there cannot be
much OF crop. Potatoes promise
an abundant harvest.
The average yield of wheat in the
town of Rendsville last year was 6 3
bushels per acre, Oats IL 10, Flax 8,
Potatoes 20, bushels per acre.
The present indications are that
wheat will yield from II 10 Is bushels
per acre, oats about the same as last
year Flax is much better than last
year, but the yield cannot he esti-
mated at present. Neither cap pota.
toes, but 1t is safe to say that there
will be at least three times % bushels
per acre this year. 1t was 80 dry in
planting time, and it has been such
cool nights, that vines do not thrive
well, consequently the crop of
pumpkins and squashes will be small.
And i'll consequence of dry spring,
cat worms and cool weather gardens
are not as good as usual.
The hay crop is very fair with
SPLENDID weather for curing it, and
the farmer that Is not attending to
that part of his farm work at the
present time is missing his chance to
make hay while the Sun shines.

Tor not stopping the Hall FitSslm'

The Governor had nothing to do with

the city of st. Paul showed they were
unable or unwilling to do their duty
tins, Mayor Smith did. by refusing to
stop the fight. After this the people
assembled together and implored the
Governor to interfere, which he did
promptly.
The Governor sent for the Sheriff
10 consult about the means necessary

necessary to call out the Militia is
Aaere than any one can tel. If the

To the People of Minnesota.

The State of Minnesota, to be ap-
propriately represented at the
World Columbian Exposition, needs
ut least \ hundred thousand dollars
in addition to the amount at present
available.
The Commission, feeling that the
deep interest manifested throughout
the State should have some public
and formal expression; believing also
that some better plan for raising this
additional sum, than the one most
favOrably considered 10y them, have
decided to call a convention for this
two-fold purpose, TO be held in the
Hall of representatives. at St. Paul.
on Thursday morning, August 18th.
at 10 o'clock. to which convention
each Chamber of Commerce, Board
of Trade, City and Village Council
in every city and town throughout
the State is invited to send two del
, egates.
In counties where there are no such
organized bodies. the Chairman of
the Board of County Commissioners
is requested to appoint the delegates.
We earnestly desire that the news
papers of the State, always ready to
aid in every move which may prove
of benefit to our commonwealth, will
bring their mighty influence to the
support of the commission in this
matter.
In no way can the Commission
ascertain the ishes of the people ex.
cept through the medium Of the press
or the gathering of representative
body Of citizeRs.
Ii with full knowledge of the vast
benefits to be derived from proper
display OF our resources and advan-
tages; il, after being advised as 10
