The Blessings of a Bountiful
Harvest.

The blessings of a bountiful
harvest are twofold. The product
itself stimulates trade and feeds
the people, and the money it pro-
duces accomplishes the same ends
The farmer sells his grain to the
local dealers. The grain then
starts on its wealth producing
travels itself. The local dealer
sells to the grain merchant and he
in turn to the shippers. Then
the transportation companies take
their turn. The local railroad de-
livers it to the great trunk line,
which in turn hands it over to the
elevators from which it is loaded
into steamships and again delivered
into the hands of the merchants,
and finally finds its way into the
hands of the miller to be ground
into flour and made into bread to
feed the hungry. From the time
a bushel of grain starts from the
far West until it is finally made
into bread, it produces a profit
wherever it goes. So much for
the grain itself. Next comes the
material benefit, just as real as if
an equivalent amount of gold had
been dug from the ground. The
farmer has produced something
which did not formerly exist and
exchanges it for money. Then
the money received starts on its
travels. The farmer pays his
debts and buys farming imple-
menrs, fertilizers, shoes, clothing,
and the many articles that go to
make up the necessaries of life.
His money flows through the ar
teries of trade, producing profits
as it goes. The local dealer buys
from the wholesale merchant and
from the manufacturer. Then
the railroads and steamships, hav-
ing carried the grain to market,
bring back the return traffic.
But it does not stop here. The
transportation companies in turn
disburse the profits in the purchase
of rolling stock, rails and other
and the water routes in
the purchase of steamships aud
Last but not least, thou
sands are given employment and
millions are fed.

The Prohibitionists have begun
their campaign early this Fall.
They have worked and contributed
money for several years, and yet
they do not succeed in securing a
representative in the Assem- bly,.
On the other hand they continue
to hamper those who would like
to see temperance men elected,
but who do not believe in the Pro-
hibition methods. They insist
that all temperance people should
stick to the party regardless of
consequences to other candidates.
They chide those severely who
cast their votes for an acknowl-
edged temperance man, nominated
by one of the other parties, even
though they know that his defeat
means the election of rum man.
This has been seen many times.
And yet the Prohibitionists say
they can't control the temperance
vote, because the temperance men
of the old parties are too partisan.
Can there be any more bitter
partisanship than is shown by the
Prohibitionists themselves?

BLOWN FIFTY FEET.
Eleven Wounded, Three Fatally, by
Locomotive Explosion.

Locomotive ExplOSlon.
Shortly before o'clock on recent after
noon a terrible explosion rent the air at the
shops of the Chicago, ST. Paul and Kansas
City Railroad Company at South Park, st.
Paul, MINI.
AS soon as the smoke and noise had sub
sided agonizing groans were heard IN the
debris of the wreck.
The employees in the shops had been repair
iag an old engine, and, having completed the
work. decided to test the boiler. Doubtless
too much steam was put on, for the boiler
exploded with terrible velocity, and eleven
persons were injured, three of them fatally.
Five of the victims were terribly mutt
lated, and were picked up unconscious. The
others were quite badly injured and taken to
their homes.
The three who were fatally injured were
conveyed by a special train to the Union
Depot and taken to st. Josephs Hospital.
L. F. Newton, a clerk in the company's
office. who was an eye witness of the acci-
dent, said:
'The engine had just been brought out of
the shops, Hostler May being in charge.
Suddenly the explosion occurred and saw
May shoot up in the air and come down be-
hind some freight cars fifty feet away.
Clancy, who was standing near, was thrown
two car lengths away. The explosion tore
the firebox out and ripped open the right
side of the boiler.
"The boiler head was blown a hundred
feet away and through the machine shop
door,"

There was a serious attempt at revolution
at Montevideo, Uruguay, on a recent even
ing. The members of revolutionary club
in the suburbs of the city fired upon the
troops stationed near at hand.
The latter returned the volley with deadly
effect Several persons were killed outright
and many wounded. Many of the ringlead-

Mrs. Herrick made that salad with

treat ingloEiously.
The fancy tables were attended to
by Mesdames G. II. Munro and L. O.
Hollister, who understood their bnsi-

beginning to finish seemed to excel
all we had passed, so the best of all

reward in plethoric exchequer.
The net receipts of the evening
were over $500.

We would call particular attention
to reward offered bv gentlemen of
this village, which appears in this
issue of THE Sun. A White Chapel
murderer of dogs seems TO have
struck Morris. Some of the very
best dogs in town have been poisoned
recently, and the owners naturally
feel much incensed about the out
rage. In most cases the victims have
been favorites of the wives and
children of the families, which
makes the crime seem worse. 1t IS
to be hoped that the reward offered
will bring the william or Williams to
condign punishment. A man that
would poison dog, should not be
trusted with human life; he would
he vile enough to commit any crime
known to the laws.
