Are Numerous Central minnesota
Towns Being Connected.

A Winnebago City special to the
Pioneer Press of Monday says: "The
central offices of the Blue Earth Val
ley Telephone exchange was opened
here this morning. This marks an
event in business enterprise of much
Importance to the towns of the Blue
Earth valley and vicinity. For sew
eral months past leading citizens have
been maturing plans for planting a
telephone system that would embrace
neighboring towns and eventually con-
meet with the Twin Cities. A stock
company was organized in July and
work Immediately begun. The line
to Woodland and Nashville has been
in operation several days. The stores
and offices and many residences are
already connected with the central
office and the local system is being
rapidly extended. Work on the lines
to other towns is being pushed for
ward rapidly. The line to Blue Earth
City and Gilmore has been delayed by
lack Of material, but it is fully eX-
pected that Blue Earth City can be
called up before Saturday. The COM
pany will, as early as possible, extend
lines west to Fairmont, east to Wells
and north to Amboy, Lake Crystal
and Mankato. When connected with
the line from Mankato northward it
will give this entire system the ad-
vantages of telephone connection with
the Twin Cities.

A NARROW ESCAPE.

The three year old boy Of Jesse
Keene, of Belgrade, had narrow
escape from death one day this week.
He was playing and in some manner
fell under the wheels Of a wagon
loaded with fax. One of the wheels
passed over him lengthwise, but for
tunately no injury was Inflicted be-
sides some severe bruises. This is
partly accounted for by the fact that
the wagon had wide tired wheels.
DR.. Davis was summoned and has
the case in charge.

State Fair Exhibit.

President Weaver, of the state fair
association, assisted in making Sc
lection yesterday of an exhibit from
the county to be entered at the state
fair in competition with exhibits from
half dozen other counties. An eX-
cellent display was secured from
among the individual exhibits of cere-
ais and vegetables, and it is probable
that no other county in the state can
make better showing. We expect
to see the Blue Earth county exhibit
carry off the first premium.
Prof. Shaw stated to the FREE
PRESS that the exhibits at the county
fair are highly creditable as a whole,
and very likely to surpass anything at
the state fair. The weakest point
was portion of the stock exhibit but
the exhibit at the state fair does not
include stock. Prof. Shaw spent

ment and was much pleased with

ABOLISH THE DLSCRIMINA TING
SUGAR Duty

The New York Herald oil the 10Th instant in
speaking OF the outrageous imposition placed
by the existing tariff bill on sugar very
lorcibly and justly remarks:
"The bill abolishing the discriminating
duty on sugar, which the Ways and Means
Committee Of the House of Representatives
has agreed to report favorably, ought to be
promptly reported and promptly passed.
at has been enormously argued by its
apologists that this discriminating duty
against sugar imported from bounty paying
countries existed in the Mckinley law, but
that such countries did not complain of il
and did not resort to retaliation when that
law was enforced But the Mckinley diff.
lerential limited and was imposed only on
sugars above No. 10 Dutch standard in
color while the differential in the new
tariff is leveled against all sugars doth raw
and refined) imported from bounty paying
countries. There is a great difference be.
tween the two cases, and Germany promptly
protested against the discrimination aimed
at her in the new tariff.
"There can be no excuse for continuing
this duty, which will yield the Treasury no
appreciable revenue, but has stirred up for
eign nations to make a disastrous war on
our export trade in cattle and other farm.

TIE CURRENCY PROBLEM.

There is considerable active work going
on among the recognized fnsnciers in both
parties in the direction of framing none
tary measure that can pass both Houses.
The truth is that the Republicans are al
most as anxious to get the financial problem
solved at this session as are the Democrats.
They dread having to take up the matter in
the next Congress, probably in extra session.
Senators Sherman and Allison, two Of the
shrewdest financial minds on the Republi-
can side, are ready to come to the aid OF the
Democrats The former has introduced q
bill that embraces his ideas for relief from
the present situation.
Senator Allison, it is understood, will give
10 the Senate Finance Committee ut its next
meeting his ideas of meeting the present
crisis HIS plan is something like that Of
Senator Sherman's. Ii does not provide for
bonds, however, but does provide for the is
suance of sxcbequer notes TO run one, two
or three years The amount Mr.. Allison
links would not be more thaA $4,000, 600.

THE FRENCH ELECTION.

The excitement caused by the downfall
OF the late French government WAS tenn
porarily allayed by the election of NJ. Faure
10 the Presidency This choice was made
as the result of a coalition against Brlsson,
whose leadership in the race was manifest
on the first ballot
NJ Brisssn is tagged by his opponents
with the obnoxious epithet of socialism, but
the fact is that his socialism is really ne
more than CONSTANT adherence to princi-
pies that are recognized in this country as
the basis of Republicanism. HIS stand in
the recent issues was that the Government
must not lend itself to acts for the specific
advantage OF associated capital, and that the
right of free discussion must be maintained.
No American would dare 10 deny these prin-
cples in theory, although in practice we
may not live up to the first. II is worth
while TO remember that the Brisson type Of
socialism would be called on this side of the
ocean very good Democracy.
The defeat of Brisson after his party had
forced both the Deputy Ministry and Presi-
dent Casimer Perier intoa resignation shows
that while the m0narchist remnant would
vote to pull down a conservative Republic
can ministry, it was careful to throw its vote
to the other side when the result seemed
likely to be the establishment oil radical
Republicanism to the Presidential chair
What M Faure will do in this new place
Is something for the future to disclose, AS
n governing power he is an unknown guam
tity, and that his task is a difficult oe is
beyond dispute. The radical Republicans
are in open revolt, while the Duke Of Or
leans announces himself as ia the attitude
of expectancy that has characterized his
home fer the past half century
If the new President can hold the French
republic safely on its course SO as to
avoid the ScylIa of Red Republicanism
without falling into the Charybdis Of mon
archy, he will prove himself the fit sue
csssor, if not the superior, OF Csrnot, but
that power remains to be demonstrated
