ALETTER FROM MINNESOTA.

ED Fish, who came from Iowa this spring and
settled on a farm in the vicinity of Warren
writes the following letter to his old home. ei '.
ing his Impressions of thecountry The letter
is published in the Dallas County News, at Adel
Iowa.:
like the farm that I am on splen-
didly, and also like the country, but
l can tell you more about it after I see
the crops growing. This is a nice lit
tie town, and 1 enclose you photo
graph. There are nice lot of people
here. The weather has been pretty
cold, but is now warming up and the
snow is about all gone. I came up
town a week ago Yesterday, and after
I came to town they told me it was %
below zero, and I rode all the way in
the wagon and did not get cold. 1 do
not believe you could ride seven miles
in wagon down there and not get
cold, when it was % below zero. There
is plenty Of room here for some more
good Iowa farmers in this country.
There is a new school house here
worth $4,000. The photo does not
cover all the elevators. There is to-
tai capacity here Of about 800, 900
bushels. The mill grinds 800 barrels
of -four in "a hours, and runs day and
night. There are seven churches here.
There is more traffic here in one dav
than there would be down there in a
week. | do not know what It would
be in the fall when they are hauling
grain. do not think that Mr.. Lough-
ridge misrepresented the country in
any way, and find as good horses
and cattle here as I ever saw in Iowa,
taking the same grade Of stock. We
are hauling oats for Mr.. Loughridge
and we haul l27 bushels at load, Z
miles, making two trips E day, SO you
see if man is willing to rustic he can
find something to do1a we'll as in 10
val enclose you a Photograph also
for the Dallas Count News, which
you will please hand to them. Let
them put this letter in the paper.
Yours Respectfully,

Why Lincoln Grew . Beard.

It was by request Of young woman
whom he had never seen that Lincoln
grew his first beard. In 1861 he nav-
eled from Springfield to Washington and
made series Of speeches. At Erie
Northeast station he prefaced his address
by saying that q year previously he had
received from a young girl in that place
a letter asking him to let his whiskers
grow.
"And if that young lady is present, -
added the president, II would like to
ask her if she will come up and tell me
what she thinks Of the result, for have
followed her advice.
Amid the cheers Of the audience a
pretty girl made her way to the plat
form and was kissed by the president.

Lineoln ~o Dancer.

Lincoln made his first appearance in
society when he was first sent to Spring
field, Ills, as member Of the state leg
islature. It was not an imposing figure
which he cut in ballroom, but still he
was occasionally to be found there.
Miss Mary Todd. who afterward became
his wife, was the magnet which drew
the tall, awkward young man from his
den. One evening Lincoln approached
Miss Todd and said, in his peculiar
idiom:
"Miss Todd, should like to dance
with you the worst way
The young woman accepted the inev-
liable and hobbled around the room
with him. When she returned to her
seat, one of her companions asked mis-
chievously:
"Well, Mary, did he dance with you
the worst way?''
"Yes," she answered, "the very
worst. )"

WHY WHEAT is LOW.

Chas. A. Pillsbury, the big Mime
apolis miller, in plea made before a
congressional committee, assigned as
one cause for the decline of wheat
prices, the abandonment of our gov
eminent of the reciprocity system.
He said:
export trade up to 1894 had so in
creased that fully one-third of our
wheat product was being exported in
flour. But since the repeal of the rec
iprocity enactment our -four is kept
out Of France, Germany, Belgium and
Sweden by yheavydiscrimination tariffs.
We are almost shut out of Mexico and
largely out of Cuba. Brazil and 9TH
er South American countries have
placed duty on -four in retaliation of
the withdrawal of reciprocity privileg-
es: France actually gives a bonus to
millers on the -four which they export.
In Germany the duty is 80 cents a
bushel and on -four $2.21 barrel. All
these countries whose policy is op-
pressive, are large exporters to this
country and can be reached by retail
atory legislation"
Mr.. Pillsbury strongly urged the
restoration of the reciprocity system
as means of extending the market
for American farm products.

From Sandusky. Ohio. Call on Major Mckin.
ley. Tuesday.

Canton. Ohio Oct. 1S. Sandusky
county. Ohio, sent 1000 inhabitants to
call on Major Mckinley. this afternoon
Among those who accompanied the
delegation was Scott Hayes, son of the
late President Hayes. Major McKin-
ley said:
The question in every American mind
is how to get back the old prosperity
we enjoyed for more than a third of a
century. We must have confidence in
the first place. We can only get back
confidence by letting the whole world
know that this is an honest nation of
'o,ooo.O00 of people, and that they pro-
pose to pay all their debts in as good
money as the world knows ANYTHING
about. and then when we have estab-
!ished that. we propose to resume busi-
ness at home. The only way to improve
our condition is to increase business
Let us do our own manufacturing. Let
us do our own mining let us preserve
our own home market-the best mar
ket in the world" Great cheering)

Workingmen are intelligent and would
demand that their employers increase
their wages to correspond with the in

WHOSE CHILD?
Or. !. W. Tibbetts Charged With
Abandoning Baby at Hermon.
He is Bound 0ver-Chid's Mother Known
Father Still in Dark.

Bangor Oct. 13.-Dr l. w. Tjbbetts
of Stetson. was arraigned in the NUM-
cipal court. today. on the charge of
abandoning child on door step The
alleged crime was committed on the
night of November 25, 1894 when male
child about two weeks old was left on
the doorsteps of the house of John W.
Leathers in Hermon. The babe was in
an extension case and the ONLY thing
to show whose it was was hat lining
bearing the name Herbert Fisher and
Il note which read as follows:
Take me in and. treat me kindly
Bady j"
Mr. Leathers has always had desire
to know who the child's parents were
and who left it on his doorsteps. Last
August he engaged Deputy Sheriff A.
B. Ireland of Stetson. to ferret it out
Ireland worked with such zeal that he
felt warranted in arresting DR.. Tib-
belts. Monday. on the above charge.
In the court. this morning. DR. Tib-
belts pleaded not guilty. The prosecu-
ton introduced testimony to show that
the child was taken from it's mother
iIiss Carrie Ellis iof Corinna by Dr.
TibbettS. who told her that he was GO
ing to bring il to the Children's Home
in Bangor, and to show further that
the child was the same as left at Mr.
Leathers'
The defence admitted the first but
denied the leaving of the child on the
doorsteps. The mother and child were
both in the court room. The former ap-
peared very dramatic, while the hady
won the hearts of lawyers, reporters
and court officers by its childish
prattle
In the afternoon, Mr.. White made a
brief review of his case. which had been
admirably presented by him and his Wit
statement nor did it introduce any testi-
mony in its own behalf
The court spent no time in declaring it's
decree. 1t found probable cause and or
sum of $500 for appearance before the
February term of the supreme court in
this county. The bond was furnished at
once. and the doctor went home, as did
the other parties in the suit.
There is an impression that the case
Will never again come to court. but some
people who have been keeping quiet a
good deal of late think differently
1t is said that the father of the child is
known to all parties concerned and he
may be expected to appear in the proceed
ngs at any time. One of the interesting
circumstances of the case is the fact that
DR.. Tibbetts is one Of Deputy Ireland's
hondsmen The doctor first began prac-
tice in Stetson 20 years ago. He re-
manned there u years, then went to Cal
ifornia. where he stayed four years fin
ally returning to Stetson where he has
lived ever since. He is a highly respected
man of about 80 years, and has family.

ANOTHER PROTEST
Against Rome's Unsolicited Interference in
American Catholic Affairs.

Buffalo, n. Y, Oct. 13.-The following
memorial to Archbishop Martinelli, the
new Papal delegate, was submitted.
this evening, at meeting of the Buff
falo Catholic Total Abstinence Union:
Most Rev. Archbishop:
Rome has condemned the Sons of
Temperance, the knights of Pythias
and the Odd Fellows without consult
ing the leaders of the American party
i'll the Catholic church. Rome's disap-
proval of religious parliaments came
on the leaders of American Catholics
ike thunder clap from a clear sky.
Rome's removal of Bishop Keane be-
wildered Archbishop Ireland, surprised
Cardinal Satolli and threw Cardinal
Gibbons in the most profound sorrow
he ever felt in a long life full of sor-
rows
IF all this should be the systematic
execution of the plans of the Cahen-
slyites. or leaders of foreign Catholics.
we have good reason to fear a con-
demnation from Rome of American
Catholic temperance work.
We confidently rely on Your Grace's
assistance in preventing any further
Endorsements from Rome of Cahensly
ideas Catholic temperance workers,
under the leadership of Archbishop
Ireland and Bishop Keane. have not
consciously broken away from sane
Catholic tradition With Bishop Keane
we say. 1t is not mine to question why.
tbs mine but to do or die We only
ask that Rome should listen at least as
much to the American party as to the
foreign party before deciding questions
of vital Importance to the Catholic
church in America
