watered valley and plains of the finest soil
IN the world may be had almost free, a
home where the finest wheat, oats, barley
ana hay in the world are produced for 20
years running without manure, g. home
where the most productive fruit trees exist,
nnest vegetables grow and flowers bloom, a
nome where granite, brown stone, lime and
free stone, timber, gold, iron, and almost
everything prOcurable exist. A home where
cities and towns are growing up like mush-
rooms, home where its lakes and rivers
are and shall be immensely used for nayi-
cation where numerous waterfalls are be-
ing utilized for milling purposes.
"A home where little sectarianism is to
De found, where the agrarian question is
very simple through the existence of indi-
vidual instead of dual ownership in land
home where trackless plains of fertile
soil and the rich resources of it's boundless
wealth only await thousands of settlers
and increased industries to make it bios
som like the rose.
'In concluding I desire to say that the
impressions which 1 have formed of Min
nesota are most favorable. 1 have visited
most OF the centers of the popula ton,
and can truly say that the country ap-
pears to be of SURPRISING interest and
promise. 1 have been much struck with
the extent and variety of the resources of
the country, as we'll as with the industry
energy and marvellous rapidity with which
they are being developed could not fail
to note the superiority of the richness of
the SOIL and it's special adaptability to
farm settlement upon comparatively small
basis of expenditure of money and labor.
THE climate, too is magnificent and
the influence of climate and soil is,
think, clearly perceptible upon the phys
ical development and character of the
population, for wherever 1 have travelled
I have found men brimful of energy,
cheerful and contented with their lot be-
lieving thoroughly in the land, and deter
mined to promote it to the foremost place
among the states of the Union. The re-
sources of the land are boundless, it is
capable of supporting in comfort and in
and it offers to my mind, on the whole
more advantages than any other country
in the world, with which I am acquainted
to the Industrious farmer Nature has
been bountfuI to Minnesota. She has
given her beautiful scenery, a magnifi-
cent climate, a soil of unsurpassed fer
tility, and an extensive water way at the
head of the great lakes to the Atlantic
10 build up the cities you must have an
agricultural foundation. To this end [ will
be happy in aiding with all my energies
and assistance at my command to induce
the Industrious emigrant farmer to go
and form happy home, and enjoy the
greatest of human blessings, independ-
enca and health. To these advantages may
be added political freedom for himself
free education for his children, pure ad-
ministration of justice, and a fair pros
pect of wealth as the reward of industry
and economy

Did you ever watch the MONDAY lovers of
New York? asks the World. Stroll along
almost any street and your eye, even if un-
practised will observe them. If You lack
practice you will not lack it long. The Wis
ible signs of lovers are the same in all
places. Perhaps these monday sweethearts
show them more plainly, for time is fleet

ach of these bissful moments must be
enjoyed. Eyes tender, lingering in soft
glances; eyes pleading, eyes teasing and CO.

after a while that there are distinct grades
and classes among these MONDAY lovers

The Press Committee Charged With
SuppreSaing Information

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 1.-THE Knights
of Labor were in session nine or ten
hours today and there is good authority
for the statement that the press commit
tee have been suppressing facts and that
the real work of the sessions is not being
very fully given to the public through the
official press committee. There have been
many clashes in the meetings, but the
committee has striven to suppress in
formation respecting them. The principal
business transacted at the evening ses-
sion. according to the press committee,
consideration of the cases of 10 SUBJ
ordinate assemblies which had been sus-
pended and referred to the general as
sembly. This created the necessity of
prolonging the session from to 6:30 when
an adjournment was had to s p. m.
Master Workman Sovereign stated that
it had been decided to elect officers for the
ensuing year today, but that the election
had been deferred to Monday on account
of the hearing of the cases mentioned
above. From good authority it is learned
that the afternoon session was taken I'D
with the hearing of the PENNSYLVANIA
miners cases. no conclusion being reached
when the regular afternoon adjournment
was taken. The Sovereign contingent has
been reinforced by the arrival of two del
egates in response to kilograms and who
were admitted without the formality of
having to go through the credentials com
mittee to test their eligibility.

KNIGHTS OF LABOR.
The Plan for Consolidation Con-
sidered; SOvereign's Report.

NEW ORLEANS, La, Nov 15.-The X.
of l.. were in session three hours today
adJournlng just before 1 o'clock. They will
meet again this afternoon. The morning
session was consumed in listening to an
address by Mr.. George Howard, vice-pres-
dent of the American Railway Association,
who has been specially invited to attend
the session of the convention.
MI. Howard presented a proposition for
the consolidation of all the laborng organ
lzatlons of the country into one vast body
under single board of mana cement and
with an amalgaInaton of interests. He be-
leVed that if such plan were adopted la
DOT would be benefited and would be in a
position the more completely to have it's
wrongs redressed and the more speedily to
obtain its rights.
Grand Master Sovereign also spoke in
favor of the plan proposed by Mr.. Howard,
winch he recommended possessing ele-
mentS or advantage that it would not be
well to overlook. No business was tram
sacted during the session, but there was a
general discussion of views on the proposi-
ton of Mr.. Howard.
Gen. Master Workman Sovereign deliver
ed his annual address, which was an ex-
naustive and elaborate resume of the work
OF the order from its incipiency. He attrib-
uted the decreased membership of the order
to the depression in business circles, prev
alent bankruptcy low wages and forced
idleness of laboring classes.
He stated that he had Travelled So 464
miles since his stewardship. and had organ
lied II new assemblies and made 81 public
addresses.
He reviewed his action of last January
when he secured the services of Judge c.
c. Cole, and filed bill in the district court
of the District Of Columbia, setting forth
special grievances of his order, and protest
ing against the issuance of bonds by the
secretary of the United States treasury
He characterized the writ of Injunction
from the United States circuit court Of the
eastern district of Wisconsin as a despotic
injunction. Referring to the A. r. L. af-
fiiations, he advised a coalition with this,
as well as all labor organizations
His resume of the Pullman strike tcrmin-
ated in severe criticism of Mai Gen John
NJ Schofield, and the recommenda tons of
that officer for an increase Of the army
together with the action OF Chicago's aris-
tocracy. who were permitted 10 present a
standard of colors to the 18th infantry was
an indication of an uneasy desire to sub
jugate labor through the military powers
of the nation. He urged that the assembly
take strong grounds against an increase of
the military force of the nation, and that
they advocate a decrease in the regular ar
my and the abolition of the state militia,
for from them are coming to the surface
At the close of the address the report of
the general executive board was presented
and referred to the several committees The
meeting then adjourned to meet again at Q
a. tomorrow.

An Aged Couple Found Dead In Their
Beds.
Emanuel and Rachel Bettz. an aged couple
who recently moved to Newark from New.
port, were Mund dead in their beds last
Saturday night. They had evidently been
dead for some days. Their death was
caused by sufication from coal gas.
The room was tightly closed and stove
near the bed with lids open, was half filled
with coal half burned, showing that fire
had been started to dry the house and had
burned so slowly as to fill the room with
gas and asphyxiate its inmates. Their
death probably occurred on Tuesday
night. as their bodies were in an advanced
state Of decomposition. 1t was their first
night in their new home, and their last.
They were buried on Sunday at the NJ.

and twenty minutes for the jury to decide
the case. Mr.. Carter, the testator, died last
year, leaving widow and four sons and
daughters and an estate Of about $50, 900,
devised to them according to the terms of q

daughters Is the wife of the Rey. Isaac
