Senator Washburn does not wish
to go back to the senate" says the
Minneapolis Tribune, "nor do his
friends wish him to, unless he can &C
back by perfectly honorable means
He has made an open fight for re-
election. He has been frank, open
and manly. He has not attempted
to deceive anybody. His record is
clean. He has kept every promise.
He has served the state faithfully
He has acquired an experience at
Washington, which will make him
more valuable to his constituents
than any other man who can be sent
to represent us in the United States
senate. He is the best business SEN
ator that Minnesota ever had, and a
credit to the state and the nation.
For these reasons the Republicans OF
the state can confidently ask his re-
electisn at the hands of the legisla-
ture."

THE HOLE IN THE FLOOR.
In the primitive Gays Of our grandfathsr

In the primitive Gays OF our grandfathsrs
time
When the fireplace, genial and bright,
It's cavernous recesscs glowing with fame,
Filled the old fashioned kitchen with light
They used often to gather at close of the day
Round the hearthstone, that altar of yore
But men of this modern and glorified age
Collect round-a hole in the floor.
The grandfather sat in the chimney nook
In all old fashioned splint bottorned chair
And solemnly read from that blessed old book,
Then knott with the household i'll prayer.
Their altar, the time honored hearthstone,
with CLEANS,
!, OF the freight Pickering DER
We moderns all worship meath fresco and gas
Our altar-a hole in the floor
When from the old hcarthstone the children
went forth
To join in the soul thrilling strife
And win themselves laurels or valiantly brave
The buffeting surges Of life,
Then with world wearied hearts yearning
sadly for rest
They would seek the old hearthstone once
more,
But we when a-weary with toll and oppressed
Return to-a hole in the floor.
4 And our forcfathers rushed to the fray
To repel the the invaders that threatened their
homes,
Leaving mothers and daughters to pray
The thoughts of their hearthstones gave
strength to their arms,
And thrilled their brave hearts to the CORE
But our heroes when called on their homes to
defend
Must fight fora hole iii the floor
Then let us rejoice that we live in an age
When, instead of the hearthstone's bright
glow
Or the cavernous fireplace CHEEKY with flames,
We have modern improvements, YOU know,
And when we converse of those primitive
times
And the jolly old customs of yore
We will laugh we think of their old fashion
ed ways
AS we sit rcund-a hole in the floor.

The record of railroad construction
for 1894 is the lowest in twenty years,
only 1919 miles of new track having
been laid, and the only exceptions in
three decades were in 1876, 1866 and

$4,000 miles were constructed, it will

WORLDS FAIR PRIZE gAMBOulLLET
breed Is the French Ramb1uillet, also y
Merino In France the original Spanish
Merino was taken up and bred along
certain lines which seem 10 represent the
medium between the American and
| Australian ideas There the government
itself breeds sheep as it does horses.
Every government but that Of the repnb-
lie Of the United States takes a warm
practical interest in improving live
stock.
Baron Won Homeyer, German breed,
err, bought, number Of years ago, 1870 Of
the best sheep from the French govern
ment's flock at Rambouillet and took
them 10 his own estates in Prussia
There he devoted himself TO breeding
them systematically. The result was
that when he brought his German Ram
bouillets 10 our Worlds fair, in 1893,
he carried of a number u premiums
The big fellow in our picture was the
one that took first prize.
The live weight Of the Rambouillet
rams is from $50 10 300 pounds, that Of
the ewes $50 to 200 The fleece, which
is not nearly so gummy ~ that Of our
Merinos, weighs-rams, ~ pounds on
the average; ewes, ~ pounds. The
French claim for these sheep that they
produce mutton equal 10 the best that
ever grew. If this be true, then we shall
indeed have here a sheep for these times
in our country. In the future it is plain
that mntton must be considered more
than wool in sheep breeding. SO far as
it has had a trial, Rambouillet mutton
has been pronounced first class. One ex-
pert says it is as good as any Southdowp
he ever tasted
A popularity Of the Rambouillet il
the remarkable conformation Of its face
Its forehead bows oat almost in a circle
Whether this indicates n greater quanti-
ty OF brains than other sheep have we
leave for phrenology to decide. Another
superiority claimed for the Rambouillet
Is that il Is adapted to all the varieties
Of climate in our country aud that IL
herds well Some Of the large mutton
breeds do not flock together and stay
together as model sheep should, but that
objection cannot be brought against the
sheep under consideration.
The Rambouillet Is not 80 well known
in this country as it will be in few
years. Some specimens Of the family
have found their way as far as Wyo,
ming, however A breeder who has tried
them there reports that they are just the
sheep for the northwest, equally well
adapted to either range or farm.
