'Gossip" in the Anoka Union
YOU'RE just shouting; I think d
mighty sight of the Anoka creamery.
1t has proven God send to the far
mer's wives of this county, and I have
already noticed many Of them are
growing real good looking, and that
tired feeling, which is a great spoiler
OF female beauty, has disappeared.
just read a lady's tribute to this in
stitution: S"The creamery has been
the longest step out of the old and into
the new. It has lightened the work of
the farm wife by half. It has brought
the deep can set in cold water; it has
taken first the cream and then the
milk itself from our doors and given US
money to be independent with when we
go to town to trade. It has taught us
to skim the cream before it spoiled, and
to have sense enough to stop churning
before we spoiled the butter. If we
will only stop to think of all it has
brought and taught us, there will be a
wave of thanks rolling up to the cream
cry from tired housewives every
where"

4 PAIR OF THEM

We notice by the Wright County
Times, published at Monticello, Mimi.
that the prospects are good for bridge
being built across the Mississippi at
that point in the near future. This
speaks we'll for the people of that place
and goes to show that they are wide
awake and ready to take hold of any
thing that will aid in the prosperity of
their village. Bro. French of the
Times deserves great credit for the
part he has taken in the matter and we
feel sure that if the people of Wright
and Sherburne counties pull together
as they undoubtedly will, the bridge
will be built, notwithstanding the o.
position of the Princeton UNION and a
few citizens of Elk River who are al
ways against any project that will
benefit anybody but themselves.-Sa,sk
Rapids Sentinel.
What an unselfsh Individual
George Benedict is! No two
newspaper men in the State have
more unsavory regulations than G..
A. French, editor of the Monti.
cello Times, and G. w. Benedict,
editor Of the Sank Rapids Sentinel.
A fellow feeling makes them
wondrous kind. Benedict is an
old time pap-sucker; he was good
Republican as long as he held Of
flee and stop-cylinder presses were

to be a staunch Republican, but he

of northeastern Sherburne county.
Why should the farmers of Bald
win, Blue Hill, Livonia and Orrocl
be taxed to build a bridge for the
benefit of a few Monticello store
keepers? There are two lines Of
railroad running the entire length
OF Sherburne county on it's west
ern boundary. There are smart
towns with stores and elevators all
along these lines. There is
another line of road running along
the eastern boundary Of the
county. The selfish individuals
are those who wish to tax the poor
farmers of Sherburne county for
something that will be-. of no
earthly benefit to them. If Mont
icello people want a bridge they
should build it. A bridge would
be great accommodation to the
people of Monticello, and we hope
they will get it. Senator Eaton
and Representative Harwick have
pledged themselves to secure a
$4,000 appropriation from the
State, and undoubtedly they will
make their promise good. G. A.
French and the city of Monticello
can easily raise the balance. Bro.
Benedict, generous and unselfsh
Ben, might contribute the price of
his stop-cylinder press-he would
never miss it.

If the Reyes election bill be-
comes law, and it ought to, the
voter should be required to place a
cross mark opposite the name of
each candidate he wishes to vote
for. The amendment proposed in
the house permits the voter to sim
ply place a cross mark opposite
the name of his party at the head
of the ticket, and then he is pre-
sumed to have voted for the entire
nominees of that party from presi-
dent down to constable. Every
candidate should stand on his own
merits. The independent voter
should be encouraged. King eau
Gus should not be omnipotent.
The Legislature should not place a
premium upon illiteracy. Better
let the old law stand as it is than
enact the Reyes bill as amended.

THE st. Cloud JO,uwul-P Press correctly
says that the law can fix the maximum
rate of interest at s per cent, but it
cannot compel any one to loan at that
rate. 1t cannot compel man to loan
his money in Minnesota at all. But it
can do this: it can drive out of Mime
sofa capital that is greatly needed here.
That is just what the the outcome of
the present legislation will be. There
are other states that are eager to have
the money brought there which Mime
sofa seems not to want, and the current
of capital will rapidly flow in those
Observation-Disclosures Tribune.
Stuff and nonsense. Read the
platform adopted at the last Re-
publican State convention. It con-
tains a plank that declares in favor
Of reducing the rate of interest.
Gov. Merriam, who is president of
one of the largest banking institu-
lions in the State, when speaker of
the house in 1887, on the floor
argued in favor of an s and 6 per
cent. interest bill. When the rate
was reduced from - to 10 per
cent. the cry was raised that such
Legislation would drive capital out
of the State. Eight per cent. is
enough, as much as any legitimate
business can stand. The UNION,
however, is heartily opposed to the
taxation Of mortgages. Reduce the
rate of interest to 8 and per cent,
repeal the law taxing mortgages
and all will be we'll.

Hon. H. G. Sr1vERs calls some

You owe your present position,
Mr.. Stivers, to the Alliance voters
of the 18th district. You and your
colleagues were virtually the ALI
ance nominees. The sixth plank
in the Alliance platform demands a
reduction in the rate of interest.
More than that, Mr.. Stivers, we
believe that, outside of a few bank
ers and loan-agents, the people OF
your district, or at least an over
whelming majority of them, are
heartily in favor of the Bull bill

Union Special Correspondence.
ST. PAUL, Mar. II, 1891.
The Hon. Henry Plowman, of Otter
Tail county, the present sergeant-at-
arms of the house, is just now wearing
Grape on his hat and undertaking to do
penance by seasons of fasting and
prayer. The Hon. Henry Plowman is
a fallen hero and there is mourning and
deep lamentation in the camp of the
Alliance over the shortcomings of their
erstwhile leader in the cause of re-
trenchment and reform. A week AGO
last Friday Mr.. Plowman started out
with a party of solons, embracing eight
members of the house committee on in
sane and eight other individuals, to
visit the hospital for the insane at Fer
gus Falls. It has never been satisfac-
torily explained why it was necessary
for Mr.. Plowman to accompany the
party to Fergus Falls, or in fact any of
the eight supernumeraries, several of
whom were pages and spittoon-cleaners.
But the matter would in all probability
have gone unnoticed had it not been for
a letter which was received last week
by Mr.. Plowman from Chas. S. Fee.
general passenger and ticket agent of
the Northern Pacific railroad company.
and by him turned over to Clerk Small
ley. The letter contained bill for S189
for the transportation of the party to
and from Fergus Falls, and a request
that it be paid at once. Mr.. Fee also
enclosed a communication to himself
from Mr.. Plowman pledging that the
State would pay the bills. Mr.. Plow-
man, doubtless, forgot that the chief
clerk did not have the right to pay any
bills without instructions by resolution
OF the house, and up to the present time
no such resolution has been introduced
and it is not likely that one will be, so
that Mr.. Plowman will probably have
to foot the bill himself.
The above, however, does not seem
to comprise all of the expenses of the
Fergus Falls junket, and there is rea-
son to believe that the members COM
posing it were of a convivial and ibidi-
nous disposition Notwithstanding the
fact that their destination was a famous
prohibition bailiwick. The following
letter received, Monday morning, by
Chief Clerk Smalley from Anderson &
Smith will furnish much inside inform
alton concerning the character and OBJ
ject of the trip.

fellow and will be a drawing card
for that place.
Mr.. Albert Wilkes has removed

bloated land-holder, Albert, Just
