AGAINST the wAsHBuRN BILL.

!, ADAMS u TIE W<ASFIDoHN DAL-'
Fargo, N. D., Feb. Is, The follow
ing appeal is being printed and will
be scattered broadcast over the north
west tomorrow. A copy win be
mailed to every paper in North Da-
kota besides being published in
circular form:
To the farmers of North Dakota:
The Washbarn bill now before
congress and bearing the catching
caption "anti-option act" threatens
you with dire disaster. With it's pas
sage / predict 80 cent wheat for the
crop of 1892. | predict general de
preston in our affairs throughout
the Northwest. That no matter
whether the bill be repealed next
winter or not, we will not be able to
overcome it in the next five years. |
am no speculator in wheat; | am no
gambler in options. My interests are
precisely identical with your own.
l am one of the largest land owners
in the state of North Dakota. | had
in cultivation last year more than
6,400a acres and received therefrom, in
Guiding wheat delivered to me in
payment of lands sold upon the crop
plan, over 10000 bushels of wheat.
In addition to this | have more than
1900 acres of land that the pillow has
never touched. .
Hence, say that if the anticipation
bill proposed by Mr.. Washburn would
benefit the farmer it would benefit
me, and I would DO for it. I have
made careful study of the matter
and l find that it cuts off our main
dependence, buyers who purchase for
investment and leaves us at the mercy
of the giant octopus of all trusts, the
Miller's Association. Mr.. Wash
burns bill is for the destruction of
the boards of trade and in the interest
of a monopoly that has done you
more harm than all the other monop-
olies combined. Don't allow some
cheap politician to influence you by
saying that Morton is a dealer in
wheat and has some Interior motive.
I have given you the facts above, just
as they are, and I tell you that unless
you protest promptly by writing to
your member of congress and to your
senator, that we will have saddled
upon us law that will produce more
financial misery than anything save
the total failure of the crop. If you
prefer, send your protest to me, and
l will send them promptly to Sena-
tors Casey and Hansbrough and
Congressman Johnson, but do not
delay action. Come into my office
and will have protests prepared for
you, or send them by mail if you pre-
fer. Very truly yours, -
| CHAs. A. MORTON.

RUSSIAN RELIEF FUND.

The following table from the St.
Paul Globe will be worth saving for
reference. It shows the amount con-
tributed by Minnesota for the starry
ing Russians by counties; and while
it shows that over 20 counties con-
tributed nothing, it also shows that
this very small county of Stevens
gave more than the aggregate given
by nine large counties, viz: Douglas,
Big Stone, Meeker, Renyille, Lyon,
Wright, Dakota, Hubbard and Chi:
sage.
Up. G. Williams, of Buffalo, N. Y,
gives free storage for small shipments
which he will consolidate and for
ward to New York. William James
acts as our agent in that city and will
take charge of the final shipment. It
was through Mr.. James that we re-
cefved the tender of the Missouri, and
he has most GENEROUSLY given us his
time, advice and assistance in the ar
rangementof details. The Western
Union Telegraph company give us
the use of their lines free. ....=
The subscriptions are now closed,
but cash donations will be received
until Feb. 20, and the amount thereof
expended for -four in New York city.
Your commissioners expect to start
for Russia in advance of the cargo.
They will attend the distribution of
-four as directed, and upon their re-
turn will make their final report"
The flour given by millers and 9th
er citizens together with that pur-
chased with the cash subscriptions,
taken by counties, makes the follow

A Lumberman's Rendezvous.

This terra might be applied to
Stevens Point located on the Wiscon-
sin Central Lines, at the gateway to
the vast forest region which extends
North to Lake Superior, distance Of
zoo miles without break, on account
of it's vast lumber interests. The Wis
consin River to which the lumbermen
have given the familiar and some
what affectionato title of odd Wis
cons" aot alone acts as lumber
feeder to the city by furnishing
through its numerous tributaries an
outlet for thousan Il Of acre Of pine in
the upper country, but it fu nishes a
water power that is second only to
that of Neenah and Menasha, which
cities are also located on theaC Central"
Millions of feet of lumber are cut
every gear, giving employment to
hundreds of men. In addition to the
lumber trade, it has numerous other
manufactures; it is here where the
large car shops of the Wisconsin
Central Lines are located.

rate of interest of more than six per
cent, is ruinous to the farmer and he
cannot be said to 10 in q prosperous
condition. There has been money
borrowing mania in this country for
many years and believe it has been
curse to the farmer, We farmers
Justly complain of the burden of debt
that is weighting us down. Is there
any relief-yes in many ways and one
of those ways is to avoid getting in
debt as much as possible and never,
no never, mortgage the farm if it is
possible to prevent it. 1t seems to be
necessary sometimes in order to make
needed improvements on the farm or
to buy machinery for the farm, but(to
use common phrase) we should go
slow. We are living in an age of i'm
provements, what is denominated by
some people fast age, and I have
been told that if we farmers were
willing to live as they did fifty years
ago that we would prosper, that we
would be able in few years to rid
ourselves of debt; that we would own
our farm. But that is impossible; a
nation that is educated, enlightened,
a christian nation can never take
step backwards. Forward is our
motto! progress is on our banner. We
have laid away the old hand card for
carding wool, and the old hand loom,
the spinning wheel and reel, the
wooden pillow and wooden toothed
harrow, as relics of antiquity, and we
have substituted the implements
already alluded to; implements that
are better adapted to the present
method of farming. Because a man
is farmer this is no reason why he
should be ignorant. 1t is his
privilege to be educated and refined
as well as men of other professions.
Brother farmers let us advance in our
calling and keep pace with men of
other callings. There is need of i'm
provement in farming, learning to be
more thorough in doing our work, but
it would make this article too lengthy
to writo about it this time.

Some years ago Mr.. J. v Farwel and
employed Mr.. Peter Blundell, one Of the
Governors of the Royal Shire Horse AS
ISOLATION of England, to select for us the
best stock Of stations and mares he could
find in England, as we intended starting
a breeding farm of these horses. After
carefully Investigating all the different
breeds Of draft horses, we decided that
the Shires were the best for our country
We got together in this manner a stock
Of about 40 head and have been breeding
them on my farm at Lake Forest, Ill
After several years experience with salts
factory results, we decided to make ar
rangements with the Rockdale Farm Co.,
Of Morris, MINI, to move our entire stock
to Minnesota where feed and land is
much cheaper and wea are able to increase
our business to much larger scale.
am confident that anyone investi-
eating the merits Of Shires as they have
been used in our Cities will find that all
teansters prefer them to any other draft
horse.
