It seems as though the agitation
started by the TRIBUNE last August
in regard to opening up a creamery.
etc, is about to bear fruit. In anoth-
er column you will find call issued
by Geo. E. Darling, president OF the
Agricultural society, which is issued
for the purpose Of getting the repre-
sentative business men and farmers
of the immediate vicinity together
and talk over the advisability of put
ing in a creamery here in the very
near future,
That it is capital idea is beyond
questioning. Creameries have been,
and are at the present time, paying
investment in all the joining localities
of Morris, and why can it not be SO
here? It appears to strike the right
chord among the farmers, as several
have been interviewed by the TIIBUNE
scribe and ali express themselves as
being in hearty sympathy with the
movement, and willing to cooperate
with any and all such undertakings.
One farmer said that he would put
fifty COWS on his farm if creamery
was started, and several others say
they VIII increase their stock. There
is no doubt that it will be a great
benefit to the farming community, as
it will encourage the farmer to take
more to diversified farming and not
be dependent on one crop for liv-
ing. All farmers as we'll as all bust
ness men should turn out and give
this movement their hearty support.
It will be benefit to the towh, and
what benefits the tow n benefits you.

The popular" loan scheme seems
to have struck the popular chord, ex-
cept with the Wall street gamblers.
It has caused slight fuctuation in
the money and stock market, which,
we dare say, will be only temporary,
as as soon as these Wall street wolves
find they cannot control congress, if
they do the president, they will set
tie down to business and put in their
little bid just like any other man.
There is claimed to be, outside of the
treasury, about eight or nine hundred
millions of dollars in gold in circula-
ton in the United States, and the
idea of letting English syndicates
gobble up these bonds when they
could just as we'll be taken by our
own people, and the amount never
is one of the most absurd
things the government leaders are
guilty of. Let us have no more of it.
Morris tribune., 1896-01-08

4 popular loan has at last been Sc
cured. Secretary Carlisle issued his
circular Saturday calling for sealed
proposals for S1O0,O0O,O0O worth of 4
per cent gold bonds to run thirty
years from last February. The bonds
will be issued in denomination of
$50 and multiples of that sum, as
may be desired by the bidder. This
gives the people chance to pur-
ehase the bonds, instead of the mon
eyed syndicates as heretofore. And
it also gives the administration an
opportunity to gather up considera-
BILE Of the loose gold in circulation
throughout the United States.

The last week or two the holiday
numbers have been in season, and
more than one magnificent edition
has come to our table. But the one
that capped the climax" SO to
speak, or outstripped them all, was
the Duluth News Tribune, which was
a paper Of fifty-two pages encased
in a beautiful Autographed cover. It
is undoubtedly the best and most
handsome holiday exertion ever roll
ed through a press in the Northwest.
The contents, besides giving all the
news, contained elegant writeups Of
the valuable resources of Duluth and
its environments, giving a complete
history of the surrounding country
and its vast minearl products. There
is but little doubt that Duluth, ere
long, will be one of the foremost
cities in the state, if not the North
west.

The news received from Cuba is
gratifying and encouraging. The in

capital Of Cuba, and will then be

doubtedly put stop to the rebellion.
They have kept up steady march
to the capital, defeating the Spanish

Of the island, and it is conceded that
If they succeed in taking Havana the

the Northwest in a series of hippo
drome matches, says the Chicago
Inter-Ocean.
His latest successful attempt at con
fidencing a confding public is just a
week old. Ittook place at Graceville,
Mimi, Dec. u, when he burned up
the Minnesota town with Duncan
Mcmillan, the Cornishman, who, trav-
cling under the alias Of II. F. Run
DELL did much to assist the farmer
in encompassing the coup.
The dead walls of staid and quiet
Graceville for weeks had been plaster
ed over with bills announcing the
match. Duncan Mcmillan got to
Graceville two weeks in advance of
Burns. No one knew him. He had
some fair clothes and some money,
He was a wrestler, and had heard
that GARNER" Burns was somewhere
around those parts. He soon convinc-
ed the sports of Graceville that he
knew a whole lot about the game
played on the wrestling mat and
announced that he would challenge
Burns.
"Mr. RundelP' did so. Of course,
Burns accepted the challenge, and
the match was made. Rundell went
into training as did Burns.
AS the time approached for hostili-
ties the excitement in Graceville be-
came of the consuming kind. Burns
did his work in one end of the town
and "RundelP at the other extreme.
It was with the greatest difficulty
t hat the rivals were kept apart when
they met on Main street. They snarl-
ed at each other, sent emissaries to
meet emissaries and wager large wads
of money on their chances, and kept
t he columns of the local weekly ahame

with derisive taunts and charges OF
cowardice.
The while the good people Of Grace
vile were figuaratively breaking their
necks to get at those ST, 81 and So
seats.
MIR. RundelI" had placed no money
on the result of the match save into
hands which passed right back to him
But he did bet that he would gain a
fall in less time than the Farmer,
could.
Well the night of Dec, q, as other
nights if you wait for them finally
came along, and with it such house
as Graceville had never seen before.
The village board, the justice of the
peace, the road commissioner for the
county, the town clerk, the sheriff and
marshal, poundkeeper, and all the rest
of the masculine elite of Graceville
came early and stayed late.
The first fall, amid the widest sort
of uproar, went to "Rundell." A ham
merlock and body hold did the work,
and coup No. / was registered. "Mr.
Rundelp' in winning the first fall of
course won the money that the dense
ones of Graceville had laid to the con-
trary.
Then Burns won two falls straight.
The last one was won in less than five
minutes, and the Graceville sports
who had Burns for the quickest fall
felt that their money was secure.
1t was-for just ten minutes. I'M
mediately after the rest which follow
ed the second fall that Burns won the
men went at each other, and in three
and one-half minutes Burns found
that an impending financial crisis
