THE POOR-FARM.

The matter of establishing poor-farm
for the County of Stearns is of vital i'm
portance to every taxpayer in thecounty
and the HERALD does not believe The
county commissioners voiced the senti
ment of a majority of their constituents
in adopting the following resolutions
and the action subsequent thereto:
WHEREAS, 1t has become known to
this Bosrd that an effort is being made
BY some of the citizens of st. Cloud and
Sank Centre in this county, to procure
the repeal by the Legislature of Chapter
234 of the special laws of 1887, being All
act entitled "An act making paupers a
town charge in the County OF Stearns;
and,
WHEREAS, The repeal of said act will
be injurious and greatly detrimental to
the best interests of all classes in said
county and would impose a great and
unnecessary burden upon the tax payers
in and about providing for and main
tanning of the paupers of said county;
and,
WHEREAS, But a very small number OF
citizens of said county desire the repeal
Of said act or change ofthe presentlaw
therefore,
Resolved, that our Senator and Repre-
sentatives in the Legislature be and here
by are requested to use all honorable eff
forts in their power to defeat the repeal
of said special act.
Resolved, that copy of these resolu-
tons be furnished the Senator and each
of the Representatives from this county.
A resolution was also adopted appoint.
ing County Attorney Oscar Taylor "to
visit the Legislature at st. Paul and use
all honorable endeavors in behalf Of
Stearns county to defeat any and all
measures that may be introduced in the
Legislature for the repeal of the law now
existing, regulating. the maintenance OF
paupers in Stearns county"
The County Attorney and Auditor
were appoined committee to appear
before the City Council at its meeting
this evening and present the arguments
of the County Board.
Under the present system Stearns
county is caring for large number OF
paupers from other counties, and some
of the towns are burdened with persons
who are justly chargeable to other towns
within the county. The burdens are not
equitable. The railroad towns have
more than their share of nonresident
and tramp or transient paupers because
this floating class drifts along the lines OF
travel. A Foor-farm would be practi.
cally selfsustaining, and the care of the
poor. now so burdensome, would be a
solved problem.
Aside from the expense, there are other
considerations which should control
The poor would find active employment
the trouble and ili-feeling arising from
the practical application of the present
law would be done away with, and a
healthier tone would pervade the entire
county in the matter of dealing with
the pauper class.

A bright light has been suddenly ex-
tinguished. Frank H. Haven, editor OF
the HERALD, passed away on Thursday
night last, at the home of his parents, in
Montrose MINI. without a moments
warning. The dread visitor came nm
heralded and bore away one of natures
noblemen, leaving stricken family,
bereaved relatives and a large circle of
borrowing friends who will ever hold his
memory green in contemplating his man
|ifold virtues.
Mr.. Haven left Sank Centre on Thurs
day afternoon in apparently perfect
health, without cloud upon his spirits,
|or premonition of the terrible fact that
the shadowy form of the angel of death
xas lowering near. He arrived at
Montrose about nine o'clock, and after
spending the remainder of the evening
with his family, consisting of father,
mother and three sisters, he retired as
usual, giving utterance to no word to
Indicate that he was not in full enjoyment
|of his accustomed good health. About
midnight his mother was awakened by
| his heavy breathing, and Fastening to
his bedside she found him unconscious.
IA physician was summoned with all
speed, but before his arrival he had
|breathed his last. No autopsy was held,
and the real cause of his death is uncer-
|tain-probably heart disease.
Frank H. Haven was born in Will
county, ILL.,, and removed to Minnesota
1 with his fathers family about eighteen
wears ago, settling at Montrose. where
The has since resided with the exception
] of year or two, during which time ne
published the Saturday Review of Litch-
field, in this state. Selling out last fall
] he returned to Montrose, but he was not
content to give his energy and ability
! long respite. He cast about for active
business engagements, and in search for
professional work, he purchased the

lit were labeled law to prohibit for
eigu capital from investing in Minnesota
mortgages, and project money sharks
IN plundering the needy borrower it
would come nearer the mark. The tea.
lures of the bill are fixing rates ofinterest
at six per cent, and not to exceed eight
per cent, with clause FORGETTING princi.
pal and interest as penalty for usury
but allowing fees for making and exam

Mr.. DoNNELLY received scorchingI
one day last week which made him fairly
livid with rage. Senator Mayo, dem
ocrat who has become FESTIVE under the
persistent charges and insinuations of
the great leader of the combined forces
OF alliance and democratic senator's, repu-
dated the leadership and in no measured
terms denounced Donnelly as a dema-
gogue. His language was selected with
more reference to truthfully vigorous,
expression that rhetorical effect-but the,
effect followed, just the same. DonnelIy'
charged bribery in connection with the
usury bill, and cited Senator Keller as
authority. Keller denied with charac-
teristic energy ever having told Mr.. Dom
nelly what he claimed, and a lively tilt
occurred between them over a question
OF veracity. 1t was the most exciting
episode of a session which has not been
without its celebrating scenes. Mr..
Donnelly will lead committee to inyes-
tigate corruption, and will find none.

James compton wlIl IN all proba 5iIity
be appointed surveyor general of Mime
sofa to succeed 7. F. Norrish. While the
president has not fully determined to
make the appointment, and has been
prevented from taking up the case be-
cause of other important matters,
it Is reasonably certain that what
consideration he mas given the matter
has been in favor of Compton.
1t may be that he will ask the senator's
to make some Recommendation other
than Buchanan, but from his experience
with them it is more than likely that he
knows they do not change their recon-
mendations, having once made up their
minds. The appointment of Compton
will turn down both the senator's and
Messrs. Lind and Comstock, as they all
recommended Buchanan for the place.
This section of the state would rejoief
in Mr.. Compton's appointment, as he is
a worthy and competent man, and this
recognition by the government would be
a substantial benefit to him. 1t might
not pay any very heavy personal political
debt-but theoretically, at least, public
Offices are not primarily designed 70,
that purpose.
