that county will come up for trial
there soon. The case is one wherein
farmer sued the Milwaukee road for
damages caused by fire which &C.
Cured near the track of that company
shortly after train passed. The case
was originally tried last January and
the farmer was given verdict. The
Milwaukee road asked for new trial
and the same was granted. Now it
has asked for struck jury to try the
case.
AS before stated the company will
pay for this jury and the II men must
know it. They are practically bought
before they take their seats in the jury
box. The.railroad company will pay
all expenses in connection with plac-

palpably wrong and unjust the case Of
the company is the twelve men finally
selected will be influenced by that
fact. The poor devil of farmer will
have to suffer as will every poor man
having case against a corporation.
The enactment of the struck jury
law can fifty be described as the
'crime of 49, It takes away the lib
critics of the poor man and gives their
lives, their rights to the rich. Shame
on the legislature that dared to enact
it, on the men who dared to vote for
it and on the governor who dared to
afix his executive signature to the
bill whereby it became law.

THE CLIMAX.

The climax of Northwestern news
paper enterprise was reached on
Thursday of last week when the Min
neapolis Times sent out it's North
western European edition of liz pag
es or more. The edition has been in
course of preparation for year or
more and the ablest writer's in the
Northwest have contributed to it's col
umns. The paper will be sent to
Scotchmen, Englishmen, Irish and
Welshmen, names of whom we're TAX
en- from poll lists of those countries
more than year ago, and only such
names taken as the poll lists showed
we're well-to-do farmers of those
thickly settled countries. The edition
was mastodon. 1t contained articles
on everything in the Northwest and
the perusal of it will attract the peas
antry of those lands in which it will
circulate more than anything else.
Redwood county has been excep-
tionally lucky in this mammoth stroke
of enterprise. From the inception of
the edition ny the great journalistic
brain of Manager w. E. Haskell the
Rev. John Sinclair of Redwood Falls
has been one of that gentleman's
closest advisers and most valuable
contributors. The edition is for coun-
tries with which the minister is per-
sonally and thoroughly acquainted
and his counsel was wise and timely
at every point. Aside from the coun-
sci Mr.. Sinclair contributed to the
edition, and all of his contributions
save one, are on Redwood county or
Redwood county farmers. Hon. C.
D. Ghfillan and the importing pork
and beef factory of which he is at the
head, President Jos. Tyson OF the
Redwood County Agricultural society
and the lovely Polled Angus Aber-
deem Glendale farm, Mr.. Donald
Stewart, Mr.. Thomas Dennistoun, Mr.
William Smith and Mr.. George
Whittett are written about and
portraits published. Their farms
surrounding farms and wild land are
touched up, and Redwood county is
the central figure of the whole edition
Mr.. Sinclair also contributes a lengthy
article on good roads. G. w. Everett
and 0. L. Dornberg have the only
Redwood Falls real estate adv. in the
edition. They will probably never be
able to realize the value of that adver-
Using but it will be apparent as long
as they remain here.
The Times management is to be
congratulated on the conception and
carrying out of the scheme. Red
wood county is to be congratulated
that it has Rev. John Sinclair within
it's borders through whose efforts
alone is it SO we'll represented in the
edition-and the minister is to be
congratulated on the string which he
will cash in.

FREE ADVERTISING.

We notice that good many coun-
try newspapers have this year, as u.s.
ual, sold their advertising columns to
the State Fair association for ticket
of admission which they are not likely
to use. This, in the face of the fact
that the Association will pay good
hard cash to city newspapers for ad-
vertising and that when the subject
of country newspapers was laid before
the directors that body voted to dis
regard the cash advertising PROPOSE
ton. Finally it consented to offer the
petty bride of giving the petty receipts
of the grand stand on the last day to
three different press associations, the
St. Paul and Minneapolis press clubs
being two of them and the State Edit
orial Association being one of them.
The people who attend the State Fair
are mostlylfrom the country. It is
the country newspaper booming of
the Fair that sends them there. If the
sending Of the patronage to the State
Fair is not worthy of cash payments
we would advise our brethren of the
press to altogether disregard the Fair
association and allow it to drum up it's
own crowd as it sees best. But don't
take the petty grand stand or compli-
mentary ticket bride; don't do that.

In New Orleans, on Saturday,
August "a, 1895, Louis Laporte,
aged 80 years, 6 months and s days.
The deceased was an exemplary
young man, one of the largest stock
owners and dealers 10 the parish.
His brave fight against the insidious
ravages of that terrible malady con-
sumption had caused every one to
hope that the new serum treatment
would proloOg his life. His remains
arrived here Saturday by the train
and on Sunday evening, followed by
a large concourse of Borrowing rela-
tives and friends, were laid to fDal
rest in the Catholic Cemetery. He
was married in 1884 to Miss Aurore
Defrance, who survives him. Her
patient ~ceaseless devotion soo:hod
his sufterings, as it frightened and
g%laddened his married life. The
lovely home they had builded and
furnished with such rare taste will
be gloomy indeed now that the light
has gone out. Words Of sympathy
seem vain in hours of grief, but the
widow has them from all sources.
