A Sad Accident.

Albert Friedlund, living mile
south OF New London, on the
Green Lake road, met with some
accident on the road home from
Willmar last Wednesday night
that cost him his life. He stuck
with his load of brick, it seems,
and unhitched his horses and
proceeded homeward. About a
mile and a half from where his
load stood he was found dead
the next morning by some parties
southwest of Willmar going to
the woods. The only reasonable
theory as to the manner OF his
death is that he attempted to
ride one Of the horses and some
how fell off and broke his neck.
He is said to have been some
what under the influence OF liquor
when he left Willmar, but as the
accident happened several hours
later, and as he did unhitch and
proceed * miles, he was
evidently perfectly able to handle
himself at that time. Mr.. Fried.
luud was a hard working and in.
dustriOus man. He was but
recently married and thus leaves
a young wife to mourn his loss
She has the sympathy Of thu
entire community. e.

We have said a good deal in
this number about how we in
tended to conduct the Wil!nar
Tribune. We have done so be-
cause we feel that we ought to
tell the people what kind of: a
paper they may expect. Now if
the kind Of a newspaper that we
have indicated the "Willmar
Tribune" is going to be, suits
your taste, patronize it at once.
Barring unforeseen accidents
against which no human FORE
sight can provide, the editor
assures the people of Kandiyohi
county that the Willmar Tribune
will live and be a permanent
institution. We realize the
difficulty of starting any enter
prise in these hard times, but we
believe the people will see that a
live and progressive newspaper
to rouse people to action to
make better times, is the first
step necessary to a change for
the better

We hear now and then the
question asked scornfully: What
has the Peoples party. done?
Let us see:
1st.-It may fairly be said to-
have passed the income tax.
This feature was the concession
to the populists for voting for
the Wilson bill. The income tax
is the ostimportant law passed
since the war. 1t is the entering
wedge that will split the present
system OF poorrman's taxation
aud rich-man's exemption in
twain. 1t is the beginning of a
just system of taxation.
2nd.-It has convinced the
bankers and both of the old
parties that this country needs
monetary reform. Two years
ago we were told that all this
country needed was the repeal oil
the Sherman law. The Peoples
party insisted that our whole
money system was vicious, and
that repeal would make it still
worse. How is it now? Oh, yes
The bankers admit that oul
money system is at fault, anc
have formulated the Baltimore
law. The Democrats admit thu
same thing. and President CleVe

Agricultural Department.
CONDUCTED BY

In undertaking the manage
ment OF this department., we wish
to state that our aim is to give
to our readers the best practical
knowledge of agriculture based
as far as possible upon actual ex-
perience in the county and vicini-
ty, both as to the art OF selling.
as we'll as producing agricultural
products. But in order to be
able to carry out our object fully,
we must have the cooperation Of
our readers in the work. And
we sincerely hope, and kindly
ask, everybody who has been sue
cessful in any line Of crop or pro-
duct to send us a short and con-
else statement of their experience,
or information is wanted on any
subject pertaining to the farm or
business connected Herewith,
questions are always in order
and will receive prompt attention
in this department.

we hear q great deal about
that farmers must diversity, but
precious little about how it can
be done under present conditions.
Diversified farming means the
production of various kinds Of
products, which in order to be-
come successful will take a great
deal of experience and knowledge
as to how to raise and handle
these various kinds Of products
to the best advantage. 1t will
require the investment Of consid-
cradle capital for the increase
and improvement OF stock, barns,
fencing, implements, etc., etc.
Then it generally takes from one
to three years before any returns
can be had from the investment.
Now the question arises how
many of our farmers can go
through this and make living,
pay taxes and interest on bor-
rowed capital that must be paid
in order to retain possession Of
their farm. We venture to state
that not one in a dozen are so
fixed that they can do it. Some
one will say sell part Of the farm
and get out OF debt. This would
be all right if it could be realized,
but when we consider that pro-
badly eight-tenths OF our farmers
are more orless in debt, the ques-
ton arises where would the pur-
chasers come from. Ii all this
land was thrown on the market
we fear the farmers wouldn't real
ize much wherewith to pay their
debt. 1t is the consideration OF
this question undoubtedly that
has brought our Alliance friend
to suggest the cooperative bank
ing system as a means OF relief.
By combining the credit OF say
two hundred farmersint bank
ing corporation, money could
undoubtedly behad on very much
easier terms than we are paying
at present.

The Teacnz,s . Institute.

Harrisburg, Oregon, April l, 1895.
The local teachers institute held at Har-
risburg Saturday, March 80, was very
generally attended, the PATROLS taking
an active interest.
Owing to sickness on the part of those
who were TO present the papers one or
two of the regular numbers on the pro-
gram were omitted until afternoon and
the adopted graded course of study was
taken up. Some.yery definite work was
presented in regard to applying the out
fine, and the attention with which this
was followed showed that profitable work
was being done.
The afternoon and evening session
we're well attended, all available chairs
and benches were brought into service.
The evening session was held in the City
hall that all might be Accommodated
During the afternoon several papers
were ably discussed. Pres. Campbell, OF
Monmouth, opened the discussion on the
subject, 1.-The Aim of Education in the
Public Schools" sickness having pre-
vented Mr.. Miehenor, of Brownsville,
from being present. He gave the lecture
of the evening also, which was pro-
nounced to be the best by several OF the
leading educators of the county, that
they have have heard for some time.
! The institute expressed the sentiment,
by adopting a resolution to that effect,
that no person teaching in the Linn
county public schools should be ad-
dressed as professor. May all who agree
with this apply it.
The several towns around were repre-
sente at the institute. Supt. A. r. Ruth

A Good Steamboat Scheme.

A correspondent in the Salem States
man makes the following good steam
boat proposition: A steamboat, with all
the Specifications here below reliably
guaranteed, can be built to run at all
seasons of the year between Salem and
Albany, leaving Albany in the morning,
arriving at Salem; leaving again for In
dependence and return to Salem, and
thence to to Albany the same day, max
ing one round trip between Albany and
Salem and two round trips between In
dependence and Salem the same day /;
speed of boat twelve miles per hour /:
draught less than twelve inches; passen-
ger capacity, 90 to 100 persons; freight
capacity, thirty tons.
This is not a visionary scheme, but is
proposed by practical steamboat men
who have had years of experience in
both building and operating river boats.
The cost of such a boat viii not exceed
5000; 1000 of this win be put in hv
the oriffinators of the plan and if Salem
wishes this important feeded she can OBJ
tain il by subscribing the balance as
loan without interest for twelve months.
All stock so loaned will be put into the
hands OF any business man or men of
Salem, together with the 5000 advanc-
ed by the originators, This with a re-
liable guarantee, will enable Salem to
obtain feeder that will bring at all
seasons OF the year to her door the pro-
duets OF this rich Willamette valley, in
cluding dairies, garden truck, fruit and
grain.
