Land In Stevens County.

Notwithstanding the large number
of immigrants that settled i'll Stevens
county last year; and the sharp
advance in price of land, there is still
cheap land here compared with the
price in the lower parts of the state;
and infinitely cheaper than in states
east and south of us. To men who
are bowed down with mortgages, and
who get from S25 to $50 per acre for
ther land, this part Of the country
should be a haven of rest; they
could sell their land pay off ther
debts, and have enough left to
purchase better farm on this new
soil than the land they are wasting
their lives upon, for bare subsistence
We observe through the press that
large colonies are coming into the
southern part of the state from Illinois
, and Indiana, for cheap, good land
Why don't the people south of us all
sell out and come up here, where they
can buy farms for half what they can
get for their farms down there? Ii
the southern papers will please copy
they will confer a great favor on their
neighbors.

The Wearing ., The Green.


st. Patrick's day was celebrated in
Morris in right royal style, In the
morning the A. o. II. marched to the
Catholic church headed by the
Morris Silver Cornet Band, where
mass was celebrated. At noon a
sumptuous dinner was served at their
hall; and larger part of the after
noon was spent listening to patriotic
speeches from eminent orators ;choice
organ and vocal musice, and reci-
tations. The day closed with a dance
in the evening. This ended day to
be remembered for its devotion to the
patron saint, and general social
enjoyment and good fellowship for
all.

The Fourth Of July.

Are we to have fourth of July
celebration this year' If SO it is time
to move in the matter. Some of the
surrounding towns are on the move,
and the old adage of the early bird
and the worm, will apply in this case.
A celebration would bring business to
the town which otherwise will go out
of the county. If Morris has not got
enterprise sufficient for the occasion,
we suggest that Hancok take the hint.
Hancock is beautiful little town, ,and
is capable of meeting all the exigencies
that may be required.

The Summer School.

AS the summer school, for the bene
fit of teachers, is an established fact
throughout the country, we begin to
look for return of the season and
with it the return of the school. The
occasion will be pleasantly remem-
bered by the people of Morris.
That summer school held in Morris
last year brought with it and left be-
hind it, more of a beneficent infu
ence among the families of the place
than whole national political con-
vention could dispense; and we all
look forward to the time when we
will again greet the hundred odd
young ladies who favored us with
their presence last year.
Prof. Lord, of the Moorehead nor
NAL school, than whom a better judge
cannot be found, said but one school,
of all he had visited, came up to the
Morris school. Is it any wonder
then that we anxiously look forward
to the time when we will again enjoy
it's influence?
This school is composed of teachers
of the three counties, Stevens, Trav-
erse, and Grant. Now we would not
wish to monopolize the pleasures of
life at the cost of our neighbors; but
as this is the most central and avail
able point in the three counties, and
as there is no other village in the
three counties nearly half as large as
Morris, and when we consider that
Morris was strained to it's utmost ca
pacity to accommodate such an influx
of strangers, We conclude there will
be no division of opinion as to where
the school should meet. Our friends
from Grant and Traverse will find wide
open doors in Morris and hearty
welcome. This is the gateway to a
higher knowledge. Let everybody
with the right to come, come.
