General Notes and Comments,
If it happens in Virginia you
will find it in The Enterprise.
John D. Rockefeller may give
a few hundred dollars to the
country church, starvation .7ag-
es to the men who earn his mil
lions for him, few million to
endow a university and other acts
which commend him to the
praise Of the evangelist and the
curses of the populace. But the
statement that the Mesaba would
have been a dead factor, found
so often in our city dailies, is as
devoid of foundation as is mon.
op!y of principal. The people.
of the Mesaba owe nothing to
Rockefeller or the Consolidated
and had the Minnesota Iron Co.
have gotten the Merritt holdings
the result would have been much
more beneficial to the range
4'he gift of hundreds here and
millions there does not palliate
the fact that every dollar of it is
taken from half starved workmen
who, in order to get out Of a f.
nancial predicament alive, will
submit to the roasting process
employed by the man whose only
ambition in life is to accrue a
fortune of $500, 100000.
The Enterprise does the best
work, uses the best stock and
gives the best satisfaction in lob
printing of any office in Virginia

templated by the swamp land

Mr.. Rockefeller is paying

which desirable regulations are
INTERCHANGEABLE.

knives and fine cutlery just open
ed by Prescott & Mars Co.
Sank Rapids has a novel deal
on hand. The village is to issue

bonus to a paper mill with $50
village lots to be subscribed by
citizens. The mill company in
return will put in water works
and run them five years, then
turn them oyer to the village.
The bonus under such conditions
may be advantageous but it will
be an exceptional case if it is.

chase of silverware, given with
every dollar of cash sales at
