Who is nv Neighbor!

This question is answered in
manner which leaves nothing to be
desired in the following felicitous po-
EN- which has been floating about
anonymously in the fraternal press
COR some time. 1t appeared original
~ in the Northwestern Oddfellow, of
this city, and was written by Miss
Anna G. Baker, of st. Paul.
WHO Is MY NEIGHBoR?
Ny neighbor? Did you ask me who?
IT'S not the man next door,
Though side by side we live and breathe
He's rich, and am poor,
And should fall among the thieves
And wounded lay to de-
I think he'd choose the other side
And pass serenely by.
Nor is my neighbor that staid man
With grave and solemn face,
For he is wholly sanctifed
And I've no saving grace
He'd lend no beast to such as
To lead me to the inn,
For were of my raiment stripped
I'd still be clothed in sin.
My neighbor is that humble man
Whose works of love know,
Aids weary pill. rims all along
The road to Jericho;
Who pours the oil and wine OF love
On many wounded heart
He is my neighbor
Though we dwell an hundred leagues apart.
He who hath learned the masters will
Win works Of mercy show
Through the dark ways and hidden paths
That lead to Jericho
No priest or Levite need he be
neighbours part to prove;
My neighbor only brings to me
True fellowship and love.

President Doune11y in Iowa.

A special to the minneapolis Tri-
bune from Creston, Iowa, says:-"Al-
lance day at the Blue Grass Palace
was almost wrecked by persistent
rain, yet there were fair audiences in
the palace and auditorium. In the
morning Congressman Otis, of Kan,
sas, presented the Alliance gospel in
all it's abundant features, and in the
afternoon Hon. Ignatius Donnelly
delivered strong address. Among
other things he said one might as
we'll expect to receive salvation in
hell as relief from the two old par
ties. He advised government loans
on farm lands and declared that if
the country was not saved within
five years the liberty OF the people
would be lost. The peopele's party
was the only hope of the oppressed"

The Hail.

The theory has been held that hail
storms are peculiar to certain Sec
tions OF the country where physical
conditions exist which are calculated
to bring about such phenomena, and
that there we're consequently certain
more or less clearly defined hail belts.
But the experiences OF this year have
been disastrous to this theory as well
as to the farmers, and it is proven
beyond controversy that hail storms
are no respecters of locality but are
visited, like the rain, "alike upon the
just and the unjust" Never before
in the history OF Minnesota has hail
been known to be SO general and SO
destructive as during the season now
drawing to a close. The storm in
Otter Tail county last Monday which
destroyed 100000 worth of grain
was OF only four minutes duration.
An adequate idea of the terrible ef-
feet of the storm upon the farmers
may best be gained from the local
press reports. The Fergus Falls
Journal says: "The crop was simply
superb. 1t had never been surpassed.
It was little late and the cutting
was just begun. The wheat which
was uncut was completely ruined;
that in the shock and stack was
blown about and badly shelled,
After the storm was over men came
in to Deer Creek to get their plows
sharpened to go to blowing. A gen.
tleman who came in from Deer Greek
says the Bottoms lost at least 49,.
OOO."
A Journal correspondent from Deer
Creek says:-The heavy storm Mon.
day is a sad blow to the farmers and
business men in this town, as every.
thing Indicated the largest crop ever
harvested. Farmers are discouraged
and some will leave here as soon as
they can find work elsewhere.
An advertisement in the Polk
County Journal reads as follows:
''HELLo NEIGHBoR.
Give a fellow a chance to work in
your abundant harvest-feld. Will
cut by the day or by the acre. Hav-
ing lost my own crop should like to
get a whack dt yours, for consider
ton. Address NJ. E. Bartlett, Crooks
ton post-office."
And another in the same paper:
PURE MANILA TWINE.
Having lost our crop by hail we
have no use for our Irvine and will OF
fer for sale 800 lbs, of pure MANILA
at 9 cts. per h., just what it cost us.
Will sell for cash or negotiable paper.
Call at the Journal office.
The unfortunate feature of it is that
comparatively few who suffered loss
were insured. A crop $50 acres on
Senator Hompe's farm and of 500
acres on Mr.. Bottoms were utterly de-
stroyed and the loss was total in
each instance.
