DUNN GUARDS STATE INTERESTS.

to extend the lease on the famous section

secure a 50-year lease. They are Alvah
Eastman, Of ST. Cloud; E. S. Bennett of
Minneapolis, and A. J. Meehan, Of Milwau-

would have tied up the land for a few
hundred dollars. whereas it is believed
to be worth millions, and to be the richest
in iron ore of any piece of land of the same
extent in the state.

RELIGIOUS PRESS.

A New York correspondent says that
the religious press of the country is
against Bryan and free silver To use a
common expression now days this state
ment ''is no l.e." It is plain why most
Of the big religious papers Of the country
are for Mckinley. Most of the men that
edit these papers are beneflciaries Of
such men as Rockefeller, Carnegie and
other millionaires, and 1t wouldn't do for
the papers they represent to speak out
against wrongs brought about by the
corrupt influences Of these men. These
religious editors are in the same position
to that of the average pastor Of the big
Metropolitan city church. They are
tongue tied. They dare not tell the
truth. They dare not denounce political
and industrial wrongs. In fact the city
church today is nothing but club house
for the rich. The poor have no business
in the big churches Of the city. We do
not say this because of our animus
against the church for we believe in
Christianity and hold membership in an
Evangelical church. 1t really appears
that the religious press as we'll as the pull
pit is degenerating from the mission that
Christ intended for both.-Sleepy Eye
