The SO called deepest mourning" Is
no longer considered good form in Eu-
rope. and Grape has dropped out of fash
ion. being now only used for draping
buildings and monuments, or for shroud-
ing the lighted lamps of the vehicles
figuring in the funeral cortegc. No one
would ever dream Of taxing either the
empress of Austria or the Princess Of
Wales with indifference to the death of
their respective sons. yet each has been
content TO mourn her offspring without
Grape. either in the shape of q veil or rs
. trimming to her dress. The result Of
this has been that widows, especially
when young. dispense not only with
Grape, but with the characteristic cap

THE RECORD OF J. N. JONES.

To the voters of Redwood county:
My record in the legislature of 1887,
as the farmers friend, is being assailed
in circular distributed in the inter-
est of II. D. Baldwin, of Redwood
Falls, for representative. Mr.. Bald
win in said circular charges me with
selling out the farmers interest by
voting against H. F. 238, "A bill to
fix maximum rates on wheat and it's
products in the State of Minnesota y
[ not only voted against said bill
but done all in my power to secure it's
defeat, and [ was assisted in securing
the defeat of said bill by a majority of
the farmers in the Legislature. We
opposed H. F. 238, for the reason that
it was a bill in the interest of the
Millers Association, of the State, the
bill referring to "wheat and it's pro-
ducts" only, no provision in the bill
for fixing rates on any other class of
freight, neither was there any pro-
vision in the bill to prevent the rail-
road companies from adding addi-
tional freight rates on other commod-
dities, to recover the concession that
would be made to the Millers.
Mr.. Baldwin fails to state that the
farmers who voted against H. F. 238.
done all in their power to secure the
passage of . bill that would apply to
all classes of freight in the State.
The committee on grain and ware
houses, of which I was member, did
present bill of that kind, and is now
known as the grain and warehouse
law, and l say without fear of success
full contradiction that I voted for
every measure that was introduced in
the interest of the farmers of the
State in every instance. And my
loyalty to the farmers has not been
questioned until Mr.. Baldwin, being
disappointed in the result of the Lam
berton convention, he tries to gain
sympathy with the farmers by mis-
representing the position I took in
their interest. In proof of this I will
state that I met Mr.. Baldwin last
Saturday at Redwood Falls and said
to him: ''Mr. Baldwin why wasn't
you fair in your circular, and tell the
people that it was bill in the interest
of the Millers Association, and that
we defeated that bill, to secure one
that would give relief to every farmer
in the State? "He replied: You are the
one to do that, you are the fellow
that am after"
will leave it with the voters of
Redwood county, as to the honor Of
this man who firsts bolts convention
and then tries to secure votes by mis-
representation and deceit.
