Now doth the busy farmer improve each

grain, because there's millions in 1t. II he
should loaf and lay around and equander times
like these, like Eastern farmers he'd soon
wear patches on his knees. Fen more than
this bis lot would be, when prairie winds do
blow, he'd soon lose farm, and team and home

y Former Hope Resident Dead.

William P. Hawley died last Saturday eve
ming at his home in Oak Grove from consump-
tion. He has been long but patient sufferer.
The funeral occurred at 2 O'Clock this after
noon from his late residence. ce.-Fargo Republi-
can.
The nows Of the death Of Mr.. Hawley will
be heard with regret by his many friends Of
former days in Hope. He was a resident Of
Hope for a number Of years, leaving here
about three years ago for Centralia, Washing
ton. He returned from that country year
or more age, badly broken In health, and has
since resided with his family in Fargo. His
widow is also well known here and will have
tho heartfelt sympathy Of her friends in her
sad bereavement,

LetPcddlers Alone,

We take the following from the Riverside
correspondence to the Griggs Courier Of last
week. 1t exactly represents the matter IN the
right light, and is worthy Of reproduction:
Wednesday our neighborhood was honored
with very clever gentleman in the shape of
a peddler, who claimed he was runner from
wholesale house ir the east selling direct to
the farmer at wholesale prices. He handled
drygoods which he claimed TO have bought
from bankrupt firm at prices far below fac
tory cost. For instance. Heavy cotton &c per
yard, prints, Flannels, bed spreads and broad
cloth down In proportion. He would sell
cloth for mems clothing and send man around
to cut 1t out for you in the latest style free Of
cost. In fact he was very smooth talker and
loved the poor farmer dearly, who are being
so badly misused by the local traders. His
mode of business is perhaps worthy Of notice.
He bad acquired list of all the farmers in the
neighborhood, after each name be had written
good, fair, bad, as their credit might be.
When he came 70 place that was marked
good. he would sell anything offering to take
their note, which he claimed was just as good
to him as the mon. y, and Which he claimed
he had taken in good many cases, having
sold $1,000 worth Of goods between this place
and Hope. Now the gentleman may be all
right and doing an honest business. but his
stories conflict. and we have known these
agreements and notes to come back different
from what they were when they went away.
We would advise our neighbor farmers to be
very careful what they are signing for strang-
ers. We have merchants in our midst WHO
are reliable and what they tell you can de-
pend on-or if you wish to buy at wholesale,
there are several frms in Minneapolis that
deal direct with the farmer, and have too much
at stake to missrepresent any Of their goods.

presidential electors this year, the Miner
law being the plan providing for the
choice Of electors by districts instead of
ON a state ticket, as heretofore. Their
convention will choose delegates TO be
voted for at large, and it is hoped by this
plan TO make a test of the laws consti-
