CROP CONDITIONS.
Wheat Being Cut and in Some
Localities Very Good--Not
Worth Cutting in Others.>

The Minnesota weather service, E.
A. Beals, director, Minneapolis, has
the following general summary for
the week ending August LIST:
The temperature and sunshine
were slightly in excess of the aver
age, with the rainfall deficient and I'M
evenly distributed, but falling when
most needed was very beneficial and
greatly improved the condition Of all
crops: Local hail storms in Grant
and Stearns counties did consider
able damage; complaints regarding
chinch bugs and rust are diminish
ing.
The winter wheat and rye have
nearly all been cut, and the yield fully
up to the average in quantity and
quality. Early sown spring wheat
is being harvested and it's condition
is very good. Late sown spring
wheat has improved somewhat but
in some places it will not he worth
cutting and many farmers in Clay
county are now ploughing under
this crop. Stacking is beginning to
be general in the southern section of
the state. Most of the rye has been
cut and the yield is up to the aver
age.
Barley harvest is general, a great
deal is now in shock and some have
begun shocking. The yield, while
generally less than last year, is re-
ported to be of good quality, Of a
bright color, but light in weight.
Oats are being cut as far north as
Hennepin county and haveimproved
considerably since last report.
Corn still continues in excellent
condition and is tasseling as far
north as Otter Tail county. Insome
counties corn would be considerably
benefited by rain which condition
also applies to the potatoe crop, the
early varieties of which are poor ow-
ing to the June drought.
At the annual meeting OF the st.
Josephs' Benevolent Society held
last night the following officers were
elected' Director, Rev. A. Rastari

THE sTHTE UNIVERSITY.

THE STATE UNIVERSITY.
The Transcript has just received
The catalogue of the University of
Minnesota for 1893. 1t contains 259
pages, and while it is perhaps easy to
make a great university on paper,
that is, to make one appear to be such
in the catalogue, this is not the case
with Minnesota's university. It is
really getting to be great university.
The total number Of its students in
all departments is 1920, 1908 men
and 412 women.
The story has been told, and prob
ably there is some truth in it, that in
the early days of St. Paul, Mime
apolis and Saltwater, when they were
all small but ambitious towns, but
possessing the controlling influence in
state affairs, they made a division Of
the state institutions, St. Paul being
strongest taking the capitol, Mime
apolis the state university and Still
water the penitontiary. And Mime
apolis didn't make a very bad bar
gain when she took the university, if
she didn't have her choice in the
matter. 1t will soon have 1000
students in attendance nearly all the
wear round. The corps Of professors
numbers about 125. The influence
of such an educational institution upon
the character of the city can hardly
be over estimated to say nothing Of
its material advantage.
The departments of the university
are numerous, making it really as in
name a university. There is the
college of science, literature and the
arts and these are divided into the
classical, scientific and literary sec.
tons. Besides there is the law school,
school of medicine, college of agricul-
ture and more than half. dozen
other departments.
The University Of Minnesota ranks
we'll with the great state universities
and is only second to the great uni.
versity of Michigan at Ann Arbor.
But few years ago it was thought
necessary i: a student wanted q rea|
university education for him to 60 tt
Harvard, Yale, Dartmouth, Cornell
or to some OF the great eastern col
lege. But it is not necessary now
He need not 60 outside the limits o
Minnesota.

The new hospital for the insane at

The new hospital for the insane at
Fergus Falls is now full and a special
from Fergus Falls announces that
there can be no more patients re-
ceiyed there. The other asylums are
also full. The insanity problem is
one for the consideration of the phi
lanthropist, Many of the patients, it
is asserted, come from the country,
and the cause is attributed to I he iso-
lation Of farm life, causing too little
mental activity. One thing is GER

CHOSEN PEOPLE.

A local clergyman referred yester-
doy to the idea that prevailed among
the Jews that they were the "chosen
people" Of God, and that salvation
was for the Jewish people alone, since
they thought they alone were favored
Of God. The same idea prevailed
also among the other nations of anti
putty. The Romans thought they
were favored of the gods. Virgil
says when the pious Aeneas with the
remnant Of the Trojans was co .sting
along the shores of the blue Mediter-
ranean the gods stayed the swift
waters of the Tiber, that he might
with his frail banks ascend aud found
the eternal city and the great Roman
nation. The great Roman republic
and empire both reached the height
Of their glory under the Pagan sys-
tenn.
The learned Greeks, conscious of
their superiority aud intellectual vigor,
firmly believed they, too, were favored
Of the gods, and called all other
peoples barbarians. The same idea
about their being favored of the high
er powers prevailed among the
ancient Egyptians and Babylonians.
Among the ancient nations patriot
ism and religion were so closely al.
lied as to be almost one. And their
patriotism degenerated into egotism.
And yet the greatness Of those brilli-
ant nations of antiquity was in some
degree attributable to that supreme
faith which they had in themselves
and the idea about their being the
chosen people of God.
But with the breaking down Of
national walls, the growth of COM
merce and the consequent exchange
of ideas and a more intimate &C.
quaintance with one another their
egotism was in some degree lessened.
Peter breaks out in one of his epistles
as though the idea had just dawned
upon him: "Of truth l perceive
that God is no respecter of persors."
Paul, trained and educated rs Jew
and narrow in his younger days,
when he had become acquainted with
the Greeks and their learning and at
aimed greater development says;
"There is no difference between the
Greek and the Jew. The same God
who is over all is rich unto ALL"
Clement, one of the Christian church
fathers, said: "The same God to
whom We are indebted for the Old
and New Testament gave also to the
Greeks their philosophy by which the
Almighty is glolifed among the
Greeks.
In the nineteenth century every
nation does not have u distinct relig-
io,ls system as Of old, but there are
many branches Of practically the same
religious system in many Of the ma
tons Of Chr,stendom today, and we
are too often apt to believe that tn
particular brand to which sc adhere
is the only true one, as each nation
believed its system was the only one
which could lay any claim to In.

Valuable Information from One Who
Doesn't Know What lie I,
Talking About.

In recent issHe Of the Loyal Am
eiican. an Anti-Catholic paper pub
lishrd at Minneapolis, appeared a
letter from l.. A. Norton, OF this city. |
It will doahtlcss be read with inter
est. and The wonderful stretch OF i'm
agiHation shown by his reference to
the local school board ard ntlle
matters is quite surprising That
the author sees "the finger of pop
ery'' indicates that his cyesight is
as fully developed as his i'm ,gina-
ton, and for both Affections deserve
sympathy. Following is u portion
of the letter:
"Please send tile Loyal American
to the following addresses for one
year. ! had no object in getting up
a club Lut the spreading of the prin-
ciples advocated by you and your
fearless manner Of handling the sub
ject, Catholicism. One of the obsta-
cles to be encountered in citing
names for the Loyal American is fear.
This is not to be wondered at, as
this city ana county is Catholic by Il
!arg" majority. having Is per cent of
all offices in the gift OF the people,
both municipal and county. Eut
think If the Loyal American can
| have a large list OF readers, this lam
entable state Of affairs can be
changed, and l propose to DO all
can to bring about this change.
Our superintendent of schouls is a
Catholic, and knows that there are
two or more schools in this district
that are run in the interest of the
Catholic church: first, teaching Ger
man to the exclusion of the Englisl,
language: second, teaching the cate
chism Of the Catholic church; third.

fact the whole paraphernalis OF {,

ing public money for the support of
the s.hool-this in direct violation of
| the law. How is this for America,
a country no,ninally governed by the
United States law, but in realty by
Rome?
The principal OF our public school,
Prof. klepper, was unceremoniousIy
fired by the school board, the excuse
being that the teachers under him
did not like him. can see the finger
OF popery in his discharge, he he;ng
the son OF Methodist minister,
though not q member of any church
himself. The board is about evenly
divided, being men doing business
and afraid to do any thing in oppo i
ton to the Catholic church."

The fair Eva Valesh, who is a
writer of some ability and great
advocate of reform in the social sys-
tenn to the end that men may be placed
on more equal footing, has had a
falling out with the Trades Union

Brother Martin, editor of the Labor
organ in Minneapolis, says Eva is

element wherever she is. To say that
she will be always disturbing ele-

married lady she has good cause
for libel suit against Brother Mar

The new building for the library
Of congress will he one of the most
magnificent structures in the world.
1t will cost 100000. Librarian
Spofford says that the structure
should be built to provide for at
least 100000 volumes. When it
has that number of volumes it will be
larger than the great library at Alex
andria, Egypt, which was the boast
of antiquity, and established by the
great school Of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
The sudden death of w. s. Mellen'
late general manager of the Northern
Pacific, is another case of apparently
healthy men engaged in active bust
ness life dying suddenly. Upon the
average business man, especially upon
those holding positions Of great
responsibility and care, there is too
great draft upon the nervous sys-
TEN. The muscles of the man en-
gagged in manual labor get tired, but
tired muscles are not near as danger
Gus or as damaging to the system as
an exhaustion of nerve force.
