DAIRYING PAYS.
The Testimony of a Farmer Well
known throughout Mill
neSOta.

Hon. John L. Gibbs. of Geneva, Mimi,
formerly dairy commissioner of this
state, and a member-elect of the next
legislature, who, by the way, is a candi-
date for speaker, and he would make
good one. has this to say to his fellow
farmers of the state, which many of
them might act upon to their material
advantage:
Il have sat Onmv wagon for five hours
waiting for my turn to unload. there
were so many teams ahead of me. Yet
with all this wheat we did not get rich.
Finally the blight came, and we W ere
driven out OF wheat. We were forced to
take up something else, and YOU farmers
have got to do the same. You have the
soil and the water, and all the neces-
sary conditions. Freeborn county, which
q littl: while ago was great wheat
county, is now the greatest dairving
county in the United States. Our banks
are full OF money and the farmers own
it. That county has twenty townships
and TWENTY-FIVE creamerieS in full blast,
that run the year round." Mr. Gibbs
has eighty COWS on his farm and receives
$500 month for their milk His cows
come in at all seasons OF the year, and
SO his income doesn't vary much A
farmer may not make $500 year from
wheat, but he might do that with as
few as seven COWS. This would be safer,
steadier and better than wheat.

There is no reason why the two enators
OF any state should not come from the
same city. the same ward, the same
family even, if they happen to be pre-
eminently qualified Tor the position.
When it shalll' shown that any interest,
either rural or urban, has suffered. been
neglected or Disseminated against by
reason OF the locality from whence the
man chosen to care for it happens to re-
side, then it will be time to raise the
point. Certainly no such charge attach
es to the record of Senator Wash burn.
If airy one can consult the Congressional
Record and from it determine whether
Mr.. Washburn's home is one section of
the state or another, that tact would
form basis for rejecting him. No
Mr.. Washburn has faithfully and ener-
geticaily represented the whole state in
its every diversity of interest, and rep
resented it ably and well. He is entitled
to reelection and the state is entitled to
his services. If the legislature otherwise
determine it will not faithfully represent
the people.

BISHOP MCQUAID of the Rochester N
Y. See, on Sunday last, denounced
Bishop Ireland for interesting himself
in New York politics. Bishop McQuaid
is the man who had the controversy
with Father Lambert, one of the most
brilliant writers in the church of
Rome. the man who dealt Bob Ingersoll
more telling blows than he ever received
from any other source The Bishop be-
longs to the waning school of ecclesias-
ticism-the intoerants. He is, and al
ways has been, opposed to the Ireland
Idea of broadening the church and
adapting it to the governmental idea of
democracy. His ,denunciation of Bishop
Ireland will not strengthen him either
at home or abroad.

THANKSGIVING.

There is no festival in the calendar that
is so dear to the heart of New England,
and her stalwart sons and daus hters
wherever domiciled, as Thanksgiving.
1t it is pre-emlnently the family and home
festival, cond ensing within its few and
teeting hours all the tender memories of
Cmldhood's happiest days-all the in
Vulnerable blessings of the ever recur-
tlonal III it's scope is natur,,l, for the
spirit of New England, its traditions, its
ingrained and rigid public and perso-
nal morality has permeated the nation,
and elevated its standard to a higher
plane.
Thanksgiving is a day for ala day
that appeals to the highest and lowest
In his infinite mercy the Father of All
has vouchsated to his children blessings
more or less profuselv bestowed. which
demand recognition III Il special way at
this time. Health, prosperity, happiness
these may not have come III full
est measure to all, but the blessings of
human equality under the law, of per-
sonal Experimentation at least are
universal in this country The nation,
the state and this immediate vicinity
have abundant occasion for thankful
ness. Peace plenty, freedom FROM cpl
demic and other catastrophies, all these
affirm the fostering care of merciful Pro-
violence. No people on the face of the
earth has greater cause tor thankfulness
than we.
Let us then recognize these Divine
blessings in manner that will in a
measure show our appreciation of them.
Let each one of us, as far as we NAV, en-
ter into its spirit not only by being
truly thankful but by making some one
less favored thankful to us, and through
us to Him who has created us all one
brotherhood. 1t is more blessed to give
than to recieve-twice blessed indeed, a
blessing to the giver, blessing to the
recipient.

THE overthrow Of Tammanys cor
rnpt tyrrany in the great city of New
York occurring concurrently with an
affirmative vote on the proposition to
so extend the corporate limits of the
city as to embrace 100000 of people
or a bont double the population of the
present New York, affords, with encour-
aging conditions for success, an oppor-
tunity to apply reform methods to mu-
niei pal government upon magnificent
scale. 1t it succeed there it may be made
successful IN every American munich
pallty OF sufficient proportions to war
rant the dignity of the name of city.
There is no question but at the most
conspicuous failure in popular govern
ment is found in municipal control So
serious is it that it even threatens re-
publican institutions in the United
States. Corruption and lnefficiency are
conspicuous factors, and until they
reach such proportions as to be abso-
lutely threatening and uncomfortable the
sutferers-the residents and tax payers,
appear surprisingly Indifferent When
the awakening comes it usually finds
the powers so firmly entrenched as to be
impregnable. Fortunately in New York
outraged citizenship arose in it's might
and swept the corrupt leaders from
place and power. So far it is well, bur
1t will require more than single defeat
like this to cleanse the Augean stables.
Fortunately, New York-Greater New
York-is SO circumstanced that it may
strike out a long new lines andifreform be
possible accomplish it. The new consti
tuition, adopted by the same vote
which overthrow corruption. provides
for better things in municipal govern
ment. The chairman of the committee
On cities i'll the constitutional conven-
ton, Jessie Johnson of Brooklyn, sue
ceeded, after a most stubborn fight
against combination of all that was
pern1clouS and corrupt in municipal
Ove1nment, won a brilliant victory in
that body, and his work was approved
at the polls. Ii it shall meet with the
hoped for and promised success in APP
plication to governmental methods, he
will have earned the proud conscious
ness of being public henafactor, a re-
former whose work is not inferior to
that of men who have won proudest
places in public esteem. To correct mu-
nicipal misgovernment is to erect a
powerful additional bulUark to popular
government. The experiment will be
watched with kcenest interest wherever
scii-4Uyerumcnt obtains.

THE Journal-Press thus analysis the
vote in the Sixth congressional district.
and pays merittd tribute 10 the con-
gresham elect:
The official vote Of the Sixth congress
sional district shows a total OF 47'713
votes cast. Of this number &. A. Towne
received 25,489; M. r. Baldwin Is, 766
and Kittel Halverson, 6,45S. Against
this vote two years ago there were cast
1921 votes: Judge Searle was given
16.941; Baldwin 1877 and Parsons,
the Peoples Party nominee, 1913 votes
The gain in the number of votes cast is
{, 4S2 and Mr.. Towne got all and 4, PAL
more, making his plurality 9,723.
The vote OF 1894 shows that the Sixth
congressional district in point of the
number OF votes cast is the most i'm
portant district in the United States.
When 1t is considered that the average
vote in the congressional districts in the
South is but a third as great-14, OOO-

THE repeal of the force bill by the pres
ent democratic congress, while indeen-
sibe as matter of principle, is bearing
quite different fruit than was anticipdt-
ed. While it was IN force southern de-
mocracy felt constrained to unite
against the republican party to nulify
it and secure democratic success at all
hazards. Now that it is repealed and
the republican colored voters are no
longer worthy of consideration, their
votes being excluded as matter of
course, the white voters are contesting
elections as betweeu themselves, alleg-
ing fraud, intimidation, and all the re-
publicans ever claimed. Furthermore,
MANY of these contests are liza BILE to get
before congress, where southern meth
DDS will be investigated upon white tes-
timonv. The solid south is already
broken-it looks now as though it
would be completely pulverized. The
repeal may effect some good after all.

lively. Tammany Hall has rcnominated
Gen. SiCkles for Congress, j. II. South
