The Sunday School Picnic,

The Sunday schools of Wahpeton
returned from their Fergus Falls pic.
mic, showering compliments and good
will upon that city for it's generous
entertainment.
Mrs. Cal. Bell and Mr.. Woodward,
latter superintendent of the Metho-
dist Sunday school there, met the
party at the depot and, making all
welcome, accompanied the visitors to
Lake Alice, where they and other
Fergus people spared no pains in
making it pleasant for the picnicers.
The Wahpeton Silver Band being in
attendance, discoursed music on the
way from the train to the grounds
and throughout the day.
Here sumptuous dinner was
spread and disposed of in summary
manner. This done, Mayor Earl
favored the visitors with any number
of conveyances and drivers who pilot
ed parties about the city, showing
the sights, which proved most
thoroughly interesting feature Of the
occasion. Many visited the State in
sane asylum and were shown through
it by courteous guides.
Rev. Mr.. Reed of the Congregational
church, opened his house of worship,
so handsomely furnished, and men,
bers of the party were interested in
sounding the bri liant pipe organ OF
that institution.
The party mentions especially the
kindness of Mrs. Baker for the use
of the handsome grove on the west
side of the lake, which was made the
headquarters of the party, and where
luncheon was served.
Many acquaintances were formed
and our people declare that the tim,
for the departure of their train cam,
all to soon, but that the time havinI
arrived. the party wended its way t,
the depot, the band, however, stop
ping on the way and serenaded tn
mayor. And now the universal iude
ment is--more than ever. that on
good turn deserves another, and tina
Wahpeton owes Fergus more than
kindness-and many will not be salts
lied till this Indebtedness is paid.

1t has been tired Tor many years,
and nothing but disaster to any
party organization has ever come OF
it,"
Now, temperance people, just note
that what you declare to be great
moral duty, John Sherman declares
to be nonsense, and that the Repub-
lican party, even in a prohibition
state, must get away from.
Now listen to the Times and Gate
City-good Republican authority:
The question Of principle so long
adhered to by many prohibitionists
must yield to the demands Of prac-
tical politics. 1t will not do longer
for them to talk principle and the
necessity of the party following
their pathway, if the party expects
to live. They should accept the
situation and adhere to the party
that has so faithfully adhered to
them, and thus restore it to lie and
to the vigor and strength that will
again place 1t in a position to dc the
bidding OF the people. To-day it is
in crippled and mangled condition,
crying out for that help which will
save it from future destruction Let
prohibition and anti-prohibition Re
publicans let all lovers Of the
grand old party, and all who desire
to see it succeed in the future, now
Join in the one thought that the party
shall be managed upon the line OF
practical poitics.-Dubuqu (lowa)
Times. !
/ If prohibition could be got off the
statute-b book, and local option sub
stituted for it, Iowa would imsledi-
ately be Republican again. The
Democrats know that, and they will
take care to fence against the result.
-Keokuk Gate City.
Now, then, honest Republicans,
the above is a fair sample of your
| @. 0. p. leaders doctoring, DO you
think, after reading such sentiments,
that you have any hope in that line!
The so-called g. o. p. did resolve,
once upon a time, that "the first
concern Of good government is the
sobriety and morality of its people;'
but now it appears, by the above
extracts, that their first concern is
to save their party. And now, as
the Republican leaders are showing
their hands by cutting loose from
all pretentions Of being a temper
ance party, and as the Democratic
party never made any pretontions in
the temperance line, and as we new
er can get prohibition through the
methods of the Prohibition party
let us come out and show the world
that the Peoples party is a temper
ance party by formulating a temper
plank at once. 1t is an issue that
has to be met, and we cannot afford
to dodge it any longer. Let us
keep in the middle of the road, and
pass the word along the whole line

Now for a Temperance Plank.

narty conventions inserted tenn
perance plank in our platform. L
am asked almost every day why the
Peoples party don't declare for
temperance, and | am unable to ans
wer and give them valid reason.
Prominent leaders in our rparty,
when asked that question. say 1t
will come in good time. Senator
PETER was asked that question by a
Peoples party man, and ne replied
in tmy hearing, lit will come all in
good time, my friend" Now, some
people are prone TO think that this
good time will never come. Now
the Peoples party are composed OF
some of the best element from the
ranks of the two old parties, and |
believe the majority Of them are
temperance people, and we have a
goedIy number from the Prohibition
partv. who have declared for the
Peoples party, hoping thereby to
advance the reform movement along
the whole line. Now the reason
the Prohibition party has not been
more successful is because it made
the prohibition Of the saloon para
mount to all other issues Of reform.
That the liquor traffic is a great
evil, and should be abolished, ne
one who has the well-being of socl-
ETY. at heart will dispute, and l be-
lieve the time has now come to
have it incorporated in our platform,
but | do not believe it should take
precedence to our other vital issues.
If we had had national prohibition,
tomorrow, and nothing else, it
would not lift mortgage, or cheap
en- q commodity. We have got to
strike at the reot Of the evil by
first changing the conditions which
make the manufacture and sale OF
LIQUOR as a beverage possible, and
these conditions are the government
protection of the distiller, brewer
and saloon. Now in order to do
this. we have first to down the two
old parties, under whose fostering
care this business has assumed
such gigantic proportions, and fight
ing the saloon alone will never do
it, as every intelligent person ought
to know by this time. The Prohi-
bition party has been making a
fight on this single issue for about
twenty years or more, and the solu'
ton of the liquor question is as fal
off as ever, and if we wait until
this party settles the liquor ques-
ton under the policy they have
adopted, before we get our other
great issues looked after, we will be
hopelessly involved, some of us
sold out, and bankrupt beyond re-
demption; and you may thank a

Improvement In Stock.

In no place is the Improvement In live
stock that has taken place in the last 20
years shown more clearly than by compar-
ing the oldtime Texas steer with the pres.
ent range cattle, and we are glad to say
that progress in this line is now making
more rapidly than at any time heretofore.
We are but just beginning upon an era of
improved practices in every branch of ae-
ricuture-in breeding and feeding stock,
and in growing crops No sensible man
doubts to-day that there is as much room
for development here as there has been in
science and applied mechanics. The
progressive Young farmer must be Il
student and keep abreast Of new knowl-
edge regarding his work. Clinging to old
practices will prove continually more un.
profitable.

By the ordinary methods of selecting
and saving our seed corn we can not hope
TOR any great Improvement IN this cereal,
There should be systematic cultivation of
the seed, to the end that we may get bet.
ter yields 1t would be no great task to
plant small plot next year, and as its
growth progresses cut out all puny and
defective stalks and all those that do not
promptly show their silks. Then before
the pollen falls cut of the tassels from half
the stalks. This produces cross fertilizl.
ton CT the plants and eliminate the chance
of any influence CT pollen from barren
stalks upon the seed ears. The seed corn
should be saved for series of years from
the stalks with the several tassels. By
this plan Prof. Roberts has within three
years added 20 per cent. to the produc-
tiveness of corn over the ordinary way of
growing and saving seed.
