A Valuable Accession.

Populistic leanings has at last come
out boldly and declared its purpose to
support Mr.. Owen and most of our
state ticket. 1t does not say whether
it will support our Congressional and
legislative tickets or not But we are
grateful for the help it is giving us.
Mr.. Blethen is very able man and
newspaper-manager; and the
Press is one of the liveliest and
spiciest newspapers in the Northwest.
We welcome it in our ranks and hope
it can see it's way to throw itself com

The Todd, Cass, Wadena District.

In this district the Democrats have
endorsed our candidate for Senator
and he will surely be elected. 1t is a
great legislative ticket. They are all
good men. A. H. Hendrickson of
Todd county, the Secretary of the
State Alliance, is especially fitted for
legislative work. He is intelligent,
able, honest and great worker. 1t
will be loss to the state if he is not
elected. We call upon our Democratic
friends in that district to extend
their generosity to the rest of the leg

amid all his tolls and all his changes,
ever and anon, to the time when, a
youth or schoolboy, he roamed the

Too Much Discount on a Blue chip.

Lew DOckstader, the burnt-cOrk artist
tells good story of a reformed gambler
which Is worth repeating. Two gam
blers who had been in business for a
long time and grown rich, decided to
dissolve partnership, one beeaIse he
desired 20 reform and the other for the
reason that hc thought he could find
wider and better fields in the work
The one who desired to give up his
wicked life became known to the
Christian people, and he was installed
in the fold of the church. The old
partner went west with his par
aphern,llia and fiOurished.
At the end Of the year he came back
to the old town 70 visit his former part
ner. Ii was sunday night when he
arrived. ~ he went directly to the
church and took an aisle seat in the
back part. soon the organ began to
play some lively music and two men
walked down the aisle hearing silver
plates. one of them was the reformed
gambler. As the pennies and nickles
began TO drop into the plate the pros
porous gambler rummaged in his pock-
cts for some change, and when his old
partner passed him he dropped n blue
chip into the plate. The reformed man
looked up quickly and recognized his
/ partner. The blue chip in the plate
made him nervous. He didn't like t0

his back to the congregation he quickly
