A FINE EXHIBIT.

In writing up the exhibits of the
different counties the st. Paul Globe
says of Blue Earth's exhibit:
Blue Earth county has the next
space, lat the west entrance; and never
was the richness of this county dis
played in more striking fashion.
From the artistic sign that has been
reared bearing the words "Blue
Earth" to the pumpkins and squash
on the floor there is nothing lacking.
1t surprises many people to see pea
nuts growing in Minnesota, but Blue
Earth county shows some, and they
look as good as peanuts imported
from other chimes. The county agri-
cultural society has placed the ex-
hibit, and it has been arranged and
is cared for by Messrs. w. G. DAILY and
John Bates. They take great pleas
ure in showing their exhibit and tell
ing of their county. While there is
much grain displayed, in the straw
and threshed, there is sufficient var
iety of other stuff to show that every
thing that can be grown in this
climate is being intelligently culti-
waited in Blue Earth county. -rc

HARVEY LAUNCHES A NEW
PARTY.

Chicago, Dec. lev. H. Harvey, the
exponent of free silver, better known as
"Coin," has launched his new political
party. According to the prospectus
which Mr.. Harvey gave out, it is to be
an oath-bOund secret organization with
the title of patriots of America" It's
special mission is to advence the cause
of free silver as we'll as climate selfish
ness from politics, and it is expected to
rapidly overcome existing political par
ties.
The executive officers are w. H. Har-
vey, first national patriot; Charles H. Nc
Clure, national recorder, and James F.
Adams, national treasurer. Mr.. Harvey
was first elected head of the order and
he then appointed Messrs. Adams and
Mcclure and the organization was de-
clared
No salary attaches to any of the Of
fees except that of national recorder and
Mr.. Mcclure announces he will not ac-
cept this. On the first Tuesday of next
April, however, when the organization is
expected to be in good working order, an
election will be held and a new set of Of
ficers chosen the present reelected.
The constitution expressly provides that
no national officer can accept an elective
or appointive office, nor can he acquire
private property in excess of 100000 A
side order called the Daughters of the
Republic" is also to be started. The
membership will be confined to the
gentler sex and the head of it will carry
the proud title of the first woman of the
republic. 1t is not female suffrage or
ganization, but rather helping hand to
the Patriots of America, who are expected
to do the voting.

One Dollar and Sixty Cents!
The separate usual prices of the two
publications amount to $40.
This is a grand chance which every
household should avail itself Of.
We gave a description of the Cosmo-
plitan in our letter from Montana.
The publishers write us:
During 1896 it will be greater
Magazine than ever before. A plant
OF Hoes Geographic presses has just
been put into The Cosmopolitan's es-
tablis hment, to add to the attractions
by fine color-,oork. No Magazine will
be allowed to excel it,"
Here is an item showing that it
deals with living issues.
"a complete and Immediate revolu-
ton of transportation methods, In
volying reduction Of freight charges
on grain from the West to Network OF
from so to 60 per cent, is what is pre-
dicted in the November Cosmopoli-
tan. The plan proposes using light
and inexpensive corrugated iron cylin-
ders, hung on slight rail supported
on poles from cross-arm-the whole
system Involving an expense of not
1o11
mile for construction. The rolling
stock is equally simple and compar-
atively inexpensive. Continuous lines
of cylinders, moving with no interval
to speak OF, would carry more grain in
a day than quadruple track railway
This would constitute sort of grain
pipe line. The Cosmopolitan also
points out the probable abolition of
street-cars before the coming horse
less carriage, which can be operated
by a boy on asphalt pavements at to-
tai expense for la Dor, OIL and interest,
of not more than one cent a day."
For the sake of your wife and chill
dred be sure to secure this great work;
you get it for sixty cents more than
the price of THE REPRESENTATIVE.
Until the first of next January we
will extend this offer lot only to every
new subscriber, but to every old SUBJ
scriber who is in arrears and
who pays up and sends us
SLIGO. He will be credited ahead one
years subscription and receive the
Cosmopolitan for year. After Janu-
airy l, 1895 this offer will be strictly
confined to new subscribers.
1t will do us good, when the winds
howl this winter, to think of 10000 or
10000 families, sitting around the CEN
ter table, with bright light, and a warm
fire, enjoying The Cosmopolitan and
THE REPRESENTATIVE. And if any
man at the end of the year makes
oath that he did not get the worth of
his money from The Cosmopolitan we
will give him six months further sub
