TODD county keeps up with the
procession. The Long Prairie
Leader, the representative Demo
cratic newspaper of that county.
says:
Something over 80 self binders were
sold by Long Prairie machine agents
this season, pretty good sign that the
country about here is developing and
our farmers prospecting.
1t should be remembered that
there are several other prosperous
villages in Todd county besides
Long Prairie-Staples, Browerville,
Eagle Bend and Gray Eagle are
all thriving villages, and if Long
Prairie dealers sold so binders it is
safe to assume that 80 more were
disposed of by agents and dealers
in farming machinery in other por-
tons Of the county, which is pretty
good evidence that the Todd county
farmers are prospecting.

CHICAGO Shandi11acen: What
the farmers and all other citizens
OF Minnesota want is strong, able
and honest man, who is in touch
with the people and abreast Of the
times. Knute Nelson is known to
be such a man. The people can
trust him. His whole life, private
and public, up to this day inspires
confidence. Patriotic, broad
minded and fearless he stands as a
model representative of the north
western type of American man
hood. Led by such a man the
party Of true progress is certain of
a glorious victory.

Chairman Hines, Of the PEOPLES
Party Convention, Proves
Hawkins a Liar. H&s

The Alzimece Advocdte accused
Harry S. Hawkins, the Demo
cratic candidate for lieutenant GOV
ernor, of double dealing, in that
he was delegate to the congress
sional convention of the Peoples
Party in the Sixth district, and at
tempted to capture the nomination
for congressman at that conven-
ton. Hawkins home organ, the
Carlton County V5dette, under
takes to explain but makes a bad
mess of it. Here is the VSdette's
explanation:
This is a Republican campaign lie,
that has been drifting around uncon-
tradicted for some time, and should
have been nailed long ago. Captain
Hawkins was not a candidate for con-
gress before the Peoples Party con-
vention, nor did he ever s'profess'' to
belong to any other than the Demo-
cratic party at any time. Mr.. Haw-
kins, as is we'll known, for many rea-
sons is a very popular man in this

faith, especially Democratic and AL
lance. For this reason he was invited
by prominent Alliance men of this
county to attend their convention held
here on April last. In that convention,
he said plainly that while he approved
OF a great many of the measures advo-
Gated by the Peoples Party, he was
essentially a Democrat, and always had
been. He never at any time gave the
People Party or any other party. any
reason to think different, although his
friends in the Peoples Party brought
his name before the Little Falls con-
vention, and what is more had the
nomination secured for him had ha
wanted it, but he withdrew. for the
reason that he did not then or at anv
subsequent time, intend to 90 into =
congressional contest. - Carlton CoatatJ

Is the St. Paul Globe aiming at
some of the Democratic candidates
for the legislature in the Sixth
congressional district when it gives
this good advice:
Let the man who sells his vote and
the bliLcllmailer be kept out of the next
Legislature. Let him voluntarily with
draw from tho canvass. There will be-
nothing in it for him this time. The
Globe warns him that disgrace and the
penitentiary awaits his arts.
If he insists on making the race, let
him be defeated at the polls, no matter
to what party he belongs. Let each
voter scrutinize carefully the legisla-
tive ticket Of his district.
If it can be, we want Democrats of
sound Judgment, Industrious habits
and experience in affairs. But above
all, we want good men of clean lives
and unquestioned integrity.

AS school begins on next Monday, it
will be to the interest of patrons to
know that the school board have
adopted a course of study prescribed
by the State High School Board and
have made application for State super
vision and the $500 bonus provided byv
statute for the encouragement of
higher education. The courses at
present adopted by the local board are
a Latin scieatific and a general. The
first course is provided for those de-
string to continue a course at the State
University or at a State Normal school;
the second for those who do not intend
such a course. On the completion OF
any study, and after satisfactory ex-
animation in the same, upon questions
provided by the State Board, pupils
will be given certificates which will
exempt them from further examina-
ton in that study on admission to any
State institution. And upon the COM
pletion of either of the courses pre-
scribed pupils will be entitled to State
diplomas.
Pupils prepared to enter the high
school will be entitled to tree tuition
irrespective of residence, provided the
application of the board is accepted.
Besides examination in the studies
which make up the high school course
pupils will be examined in what are
called preliminary studies. The pre-
.liminary studies and courses adopted
are as follows:
