BUSINESS IS BUSINESS.
Bowling, The Newspaper Satellite,
Starts on a Reform Path.

Renville Star Farmer: The local
newspaper has more invested accord
ing to the profits it reaps than any
other business in the community. It
does great deal of work for nothing
and without thanks. Dozens of men
will go into printing office and ask
for paper and go away without pay
ing nickel for it. The same man
would not think of going into a'store
to get five cents worth of peanuts and
expect to get them for nothing. The
livery man would charge an editor
ten cents for giving his horse stable
room, but is shocked when the editor
asks him to pay for space in the paper.
The merchant wants the editors trade
and charges him the regular price;
but sends 70 the city for his stationery
and refuses to advertise, still expecting
the local paper to boom the town and
ruff his business. If he don't send
away for his stationery he will exact
work at city prices. This is all very
encouraging to the country editor,
who is doing his level best to boom
his town and attract trade. It is all
wrong and the citizens of every village
should recognize the fact that it costs
money to run newspaper. They
should remember that the paper helps
out even those, who do not advertise
by helping the town and it's institu-
tons. Politicians are not slow to take
advantage of the newspaper man. The
paper is expected to boom John Jones
for a county Office. John Jones is
elected. He forgets to order any sta
tionery from the editor and almost
forgets his existence until the next
campaign. For these plain reasons
the Star-Farmer has decided that on
and after March LIST, 1894, all, political
parties will be charged for notices of
conventions, etc.; all politicians will
be charged regular rates for writeups
and all cards of thanks, ETC., will have
to be paid for at regular rates. Bust
ness is business and.we. propose to do
business on business principles. We
will pay one hundred cents on the dol
lar and want you TODD the same with
us. Before. we will work. for glory or
starve for fame we will quit the bust
ness. Let us live and let live.

O! BASE MAN!
Makes Love to a Sanborn Girl and
WedS a SanbOrf Widow.

According to the Sentinel Sanborn
is the center of what will undoubtedly
prove to be a very pretty little romance.
Last fall one of the German denizens
of the town who is widower, sent to
Germany for a young lady whom it
was calculated would marry him. But
the young lady after a brief acquaint-
ance with her widowed adorer sudden
ly experienced a change of heart and
absolutely refused to perform her
part of the marriage compact, engag-
ing place with Mr.. Yaeger to assist
in domestic duties. She CHANGED to
be looking through the photograph
album one day, and became very
much struck with the prepossessing
protrait of relative of Mr.Yaegers' ,
whose home is in Indiana. Upon
making few inquiries the lady dis
covered that the object of her sudden
ly acquired fancies was matrimonially
inclined. A correspondence was be-
gun, followed by an exchange. of like
nesses, with the ultimate result that
the young man came to Sanborn all the
way from Indiana, for the ostensible
purpose of completing the marriage
able negotiations. But, now it was
the young lady's turn to suffer some
of the modification and chagrin that
her conduct had caused her former
lover to experience. The young man
who had thought that nothing short
of a recentimportation from the father
land, of femme sweetness would be
satisfactory to him as bride, was
brought to sense of realization after
short acquaintance that this flower
from the Kaiser's kingdom could not
be to him as he had dreamed she
might be; in short he could not
marry he1. In the light of these
facts, tokens were returned, promises
we're rescinded, and the hopes for
hymeaneal bliss we're shattered. The
young man signifed his intention Of
returning home at an early date, when
by accident or by fate he became &C
quainted with most estimable young
widow. He prolonged his stay, be-
coming more favorable impressed
with the charms of the widow as the
acquaintance ripened, and the result
has been, so we have been authent-
ically informed, the young fellow pre-
sented himself as a valentine to the
lady and was accepted. We expect
the sequel of this somewhat ruffled
love episode will be that with the
coming of early summer two loving
hearts shall be made as one.

or business partner to whom Grant
later made confessions which prove
very damaging against him, were OBJ
tanned and the similarity was at once
noticed between many of the letters
in the forged instrument and the bus
mess letters. In small "a" Grant
makes curl at the top of the letter,
which was also noticed in the forged
instrument in signing b a-c-k, this
being very noticeable. The deed from
Alzina Wylly to John Black was sup
posed to have been made before
Charles B. Peck, a notary public OF
Minneapolis, but this also is forgery,
Mr.. Peck personally appeared here
and denied it was his signature. 1t
hardly seems probable that Grant and
DufieId concocted the whole scheme
to defraud the Bank, but that it was
done at the instigation of some party
who was we'll acquainted with legal
forms. It is thought Grant was to re-
ceive handsome reward for his SER
vices as forger, if the deal went
through. The matter will be brought
before the Grand Jury at the May
term of Court and it looks now as if
Grant would spend the best part of
his life in the State penitentiary for
his part in the crime.
CAUGHT THEIR BIRD.
Sheriff Blethen and Deputy Barnes
brought down their bird at Yankton,
S. D, last Monday, there arresting
James G.. Duffield,who is wanted here
for completely in the forgery of deed,
with U. S. Grant, who is also arrested
on the same charge. Dufield, as
above stated, knows all about the
transaction, and while it is barely pos
sible that he may be used as witness
for the State, it is certain that he is
about as guilty as Grant. Dufield
was trying to get out of the country
when arrested. He has been at Graet-
finger, Iowa, some time, going by the
name of H. E. Wilson. He left there
suddenly and was tracked by the Of
ficers to Sibley, Sioux City, Vermil-
lion and Yankton, where he was
nabbed. The two officers are entitled
to great credit for their work in the
capture. They arrived here with Duff
field yesterday morning.

WORK TO COM MENCE.

Under date of Feb. 21st, John Nc
Kinley writes the following letter to
Amos Moon, of this city, regarding
the opening Of the Redwood Falls
coal fields:
Dear SRI expect to be there some

drill and as soon as | hear that it has
arrived at it's destination, | shall
follow with the drill force. Mr.. Cole
is going to do the work. He has
secured complete drill outfit, includ-

days frightens him, as such weather
will freeze up the drill SO that it would

brought before the Police Court, and
through Judge Baldwin, Asecured
continuance 81 the preliminary exam
nation until March 9TH.
On late Friday afternoon Judge
Bowers appeared in the Municipal
Court and swore out warrant for the
second arrest of Watson on the charge
of malicious mischief. The complaint,
which is probably the first of it's kind
ever drawn up in any court of record,
alleges that on the night Of Oct. 14th,
Watson unlawfully, wilfully and ma
liciously scattered and sowed over
and on the farm a large quantity of
wild mustard seed, to-wit: four bush
els of wild mustard seed, thereby
damaging and diminishing the value
of said real estate in a greater sum
than 500, to-wit: the sum of $500.
Sheriff Blethen drove to Watson's
house and served the warrant of ar
rest on Saturday morning, and Wat
sonwas at once arraigned before Judge
French, Judge Baldwin acting as his
counsel, while Judge Bowers acted on
the part of the State. Judge Baldwin
asked for continuance of ten days,
but Jud ge Bowers demurred on the
ground that the county should be
saved the extra expense of getting
Starin and Rohrer up from St. Peter
to appear as witnesses in the case.
He wanted the case to be continued
not later than last Tuesday, and when
he saw that Judge French would
probably grant the ten days continu-
ance he asked that the evidence of
Starin and Rohrer be taken at that
time, and then the case might be con-
tinued. But Judge Baldwin had two
witnesses whom he wanted to hear
the evidence Of these prisoners. and
insisted that nothing be done until
the ten days had passed. According
ly the case was continued until March
9TH.
This wild mustard case will be
watched with interest all over the
country, not only for the curiosity of
knowing to what depths of degrade
ton the human mind will sink for the
purpose of gaining revenge, but as to
whether the law can cover it and
proper punishment be meted out. The
Is acres which the parties are sup
posed to have covered with this das-
tardly seed will be worthless for sew
eral years, and the cost of annual
ly pulling the mustard out until the
last vestige of it has disappeared, will
be large item in the expense of run
ming the farm.

Emil Schmahl was born in West
Newton, Nicollet county, in 1862, at a
time when the Indians were pirouet-
ting over that country and massacring
the whites. He accompanied his par
ents back to St. Peter, and in 1869,
when they moved to Redwood Falls,
he came with them. Here he attend
ed school and worked on farm until
nearly twenty years of age, when he
was employed in the butcher business.
In the early Sos he completed his ap-
premiership in the extensive meat
market of M. Epple, at New Ulm, and
a year or two later he came to Red
wood Falls, and entered in the en-
ploy of George Liebenguth, succeed
ing that person after his death, and
continuing the meat market business
with marked degree of success, serv-
ing porter house steaks with the same
desire to please as when serving COM
mon round steak or piece of liver.
He is an extensive buyer of cattle,
sheep and hogs, not only for the local,
but for the foreign trade, and makes
numerous shipments every year to the
markets at South St. Paul and Chica
go, an occupation which he has found
profitable, together with the meat
market. In 1887 he, together with w.
S. Mckay, erected the two-storv brick
block on Washington avenue, now oc-
cupied by r. D. White and H. F.
Buechner. He is single.
