The Trust Puts Up Prices from = to 4
Cents.
MINNEAPOLIS, March 1. -Advices have
been received here of an advance in the
price of binding twine for the coming
season of from 3 to 4 cents pound.
The Journal prints extracts from a
report of the cordage trust showing a
profit of 81, ,4O0,O0O the past year. The
field has become so profitable that it is
likely an Irish company from Belfast
will establish large branch factory in
this city, The trust has yet no effective
competitor, and, as it controls all the
American patents for twine machinery,
it holds the key to the situation.

IN HIS WlFE's DEFENSE.
Statement from Secretary Blaine Relat
ing to His Sons Marriage.

Statement from Secretary Blaine Relat-
ing to His Sons Marriage.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 29.-Mr. Blaine
has furnished to the United Press for
publication the following under the
heading of GA Personal Statement"
'Since the separation of my son and his
wife, three years and half ago, my
family have silently borne every misrepre-
sentation, and every slandering attack,
every newspaper interview, which it has
pleased the now divorced wife to inspire.
The one person aimed at has been Mrs.
Blaine and we have perhaps been at
fault in allowing horror of the public
discussion of private matters, combined
with regard for the future of my grand
son, to permit so much calumny to go un-
answered.
"The last outrage of the kind, en-
| bodied in the decision of the judge at
Deadwood, S. D., assumed an official
character, which makes it impossible to
remain longer silent. To remain silent
would be to accept and perpetuate great
| wrong to my wife--a greater wrong to my
grandson than ever q publication of the
truth can inflict upon him."
Miss Nevins Arranged Everything.~v
The statement opens with a letter
written by the secretary to Rev. Father
Thomas Ducey, who officiated at the
wedding at the time, in which he pro-
tests against the act of the priest. Re-
garding the arrangements for the mar
riage the secretary says:
II am prepared to say that the mar
riage was arranged by her far more than
- %-l, 4 = L 10,
mote it; suggested every arrangement;
anticipated and provided for every ener-
gency, and that, in fact, but for her per-
sonal, active, and untiring agency the
marriage would never have taken place.
In this she showed knowledge and fore
thought not tc be expected in a woman of
81 years"
After giving extracts from letters of
Mrs. Blaine, Jr. to her husband shortly
after the marriage giving him instruc-
tions as to future actions, the secretary
continues:
"In short, she took charge of everything
and directed all the proceedings to the
last minute 1t was thus that a boy of II
years and 10 months, in some respects
inexperienced even for his age, was
tempted to the altar by young woman
of full 81 years, with entire secrecy con-
trived by herself and with all the instru-
mentalities of her device complete and
exact"
In detailed statement of facts the
secretary then asserts the falsity Of the
assertion that Mrs. Blaine, Sr., broke
up the marriage relations of her son and
his wife. The latter refused the offer Of
the secretary for the maintenance Of his
son, but Mrs. Blaine at no time, in
thought, word Or deed, attempted to
senarate them.

All lands now held by railroads and
other corporations in excess of their nat
ural needs, and all lands now owned by
the alien should be reclaimed by the gov

Transportation being a means of ex-
change and public necessity, the govern

The telegraph and telephone, like the
postoffice system, being q necessity for the

made by them against Judge Clough,

II Fine Birth lay Present.

Our readers will remember that
shortly after the death of Captain j..
y. Robbie. his widow. Mrs. NJ. Z. ROBBIE,
invited the Captains only son, Mr.
Horace d. ROBBIE, to come on here and
make this his home both as company
for her and to assist in looking after
the property interests of his fathers
estate. The kind invitation was &C
cepted and soon after Mr.. Robe and
his family arrived in Superior. Mrs.
Robbie then proceeded to build for
their use 4 handsome cottage on
grounds near her own residence, and
the building is now just receiving its
finishing touches. Now there is no.
thing very extraordinary or out of the
common course OF events III all this,
aside as an evidence of kindness and
appreciation of her husbands family
not always manifest in step-mothers,
but this was not all. Mrs. Robe never
does things by halves. 1t now trans
pires that Thursday, the 2lst inst,
was Mr.. Horace ID. Robes 34th birth
day, and it also transpires that he was
not a little surprised at finding under
his breakfast plate large, formidable
looking envelope, and still more sur
prised when, on breaking the seal, he
drew forth a deed for Lot p West
First street with all the appurtenances
thereunto belonging which includes
the aforesaid handsome new cottage.
1t is blessed to receive, but as it is
said to be more blessed to give than to
receive, we feel safe i'll saying that it
was very blessed and happy day all
around at Nemadji Villa last Thurs
day
