BOWLER'S VENOM.

One of the most venomOuS attacks
upon the old soldiers ever made in
this city was that by j. M. Bowler
the Popocratic candidate for lieu
tenant governor, Saturday night.
We presume he recognized the effect
Of such veterans as Sickles, Howard,
Alger and Tanner going through the
country and appealing to the old SOL
diers, to stand firm for the country's
honor and integrity as they did from
1S61-5, and especially the effect of
Gen. Sickles, Democrat, rising above
all craftsmanship, as he did 35 years
ago. Bowler's attack upon him was
most bitter to the extreme and one
would hardly suppose that Sickles
was the same man whom Democracy
was lauding a few years ago for his
patriotism is remaining true to Dem
ocracy though he disliked some of it's
features at that time. But Bowler
was not contented wish his attack
upon these brave generals, who in the
evening of their lives have sacrificed
comfort in behalf of their country's
honor, but he must make bitter at
tack upon the privates, and accused
them of falling into preconcerted
movement for Mckinley in the q. A.
r. parade at St. Paul, during the en-
campment. A more false and insult
ing statement could hardly be utter
ed, and it is one which will be right
eously resented by the old boys in
blue everywhere. The Populists have
done everything possible to catch the
old soldier vote, but all in vain. The
veterans who marched through blood,
and faced shot and shell on many
battlefield to preserve their country
from disruption. are not now, as the
shadows of evening are falling about
their lives, ready to take up the ban
ner of reputation that the Altgeld-
Tillman anarchistic crowd may
triumph and the silver barons may
profit at the expense of the masses,
and hence the screeching of the Bow
lors, who grow desperate as they OBJ
serve the spoils of office they long for
and want merely for the spoils them
selves, slipping from their grasp.

FREEBERG'S SALOON CLOSED
Another Little Legal Affair at Madi-
son Lake.

Oscar Freeberg, who has been in
the saloon business at Madison Lake
for three months, was in the city
looking for legal advice. To a
FREE PRESS reporter he unfolded his
woes He said that .the village au-
thorities arrested his bar tender last
Friday, and afterwards arrested him
and locked his saloon up and took his
money. He was subsequently liberat-
ed and given back his money, but
Mayor Allyn would not return him
the key to his saloon. The mayor had
written to Freeberg's bondsman, Mr..
Hamm, of Minneapolis, saying that
the saloon was not being run in an or
derly manner. Freeberg claims that
his place was orderly except the last
two days, when he INDUCED little
too freely. He wanted to start pro-
ceedings to have the key returned to
him so that he could open up again.

TELEPHONE EXTENSIONS.
The Northwestern Branching Out in
All Directions.

Business men in this city will soon
be able to talk with those in Sioux
Falls and many points in South and
North Dakota to the west, with Sioux
City and numerous Iowa points to the
south, and with Chicago, New York,
and all the eastern cities. This will
come about before snow flies, if all
goes well.
The Sioux Falls line is nearly COM
pleted, all OF the main line being
strung, and the towns now in process
of being connected. A crew of men
is at work at Window working east
ward, toward Lake Crystal. When
they get done at Madelia, the line will
be opened for business. This line will
connect at Sioux Falls with one con-
Meeting several Dakota cities, and
running to Sioux City and various
Iowa points.
A line is being run from St. Cloud
to Fargo, n. D., by the Northwestern
Telephone Exchange Co., and will
connect with the Grand Forks line,
which has connections TO all parts of
North Dakota, to Grafton on the
north, and Devils Lake on the west.
A line is being strung from Jordan
via Albert Lea to Mason City, Iowa,
and all points connecting with the
latter place.
The Northwestern is also making
an extension Of it's Fdribault and
Austin line to connect with all parts
of eastern Iowa, which will give them
distinct lines into Iowa.
There are at the present time two
wires connecting Mankato with Min
neapolis, and four more are to be
strung during the winter, to accom-
modate the business of the company
Eight persons can then talk with the
twin cities at one time.
The Wisconsin Central Telephone
Co. is extending it's Chicago line west
to meet the Northwestern and give it
an outlet to Chicago and all points in
the east. This work will be COM
pleted during the coming winter.
The Northwestern is putting in a
new exchange at Waseca 1t will also
put in line from ST. Peter to Cleve-
land and LeSueur Center this fall.
The latter place is the county seat of
LIE Sueur county, and as it has no rail-
road, the telephone will be great
convenience
When the years work shall be COM
pleted, the Northwestern will have
strung 9S4 miles of wire during the
year.
A new change board has arrived for
the office in this city.

THE Minneapolis Journal has offered
S10O reward to any one who will prove
that coercion was used to induce men
to march in the sound money parade
proceeding the Bourke Cochran speech
in that city. Here is chance for the
Penny Press to earn money enough to
get itself out of the hands of it's re-
ceiver, by simply making good the in
sulting charges it has been printing
against the wage-earners of that city.
If it has any decency left it should
put up the proof or shut up. The
Popocrats also have a chance to earn
some campaign funds by accepting
this offer. But it is safe to say rot 800
will be claimed. The Journals offer
of 800 will be multiplied to cover all
the cases proved.

Conservatory. Parents are invited to
send or take their children at this
time and see the work that is to be
undertaken.
Mr.. Oliver will take charge of the
vocal department until he has made a
selection for a permanent teacher.

singing, having been private accom-
panist to Signor Randegger of London
for number of years. For nearly

If there is man in America to-day, whose
opinion of that which has to do with the In
dams and their habits is of value, it is
that of the Hon. VIM. F. Cody buffalo Billy.
The years of his life spent with them as
government scout and his later life of success,
combined with the respect and admiration
felt for him by the entire world, make his
words an unquestionable authority, on any
thing to do with this subject.
When such man as this, in times of sick
ness resorts to medicines and obtains relief
by their use, that are of nature S own brew
ing, made by natures own children-the
Indian from her all powerful roots, barks
and herbs, as they themselves gather them,
it would seem that the example he thus gives
to the world should be followed and prof.
tied by.

Vacant.

The new school board at Madison
Lake held meeting Monday and
voted to discharge Prof. Campbell.
Attorney General Childs was seen by
parties interested and gave the opin-
ion that school board can discharge
teacher at any time, so they say.
The other side claims that what he
said was that teacher could be dis
charged for cause and not otherwise.
Prof. Campbell intended to 60 to the
school this morning as usual, aud
teach the school unless the building
was locked. If he could not get in
peaceably, he will pursue waiting

AN INTERESTING HEETING.
The Social Science Club Starts Its
Fifth Year i'm Good Shape.

The meeting of the Social Science
club Tuesday was one of the most
successful and interesting meetings
in the history of the club. There
was good attendance of members
Rev. Geo. III. Davis read splendid
paper on the effect of Education on
Morals and Crime" and the discussion
was well opened by Mr.. f. M. Currier
and participated in by quite number
of members Of the club. Mr.. Davis
held that the mere factof education
alone in our schools was not sufficient
to fit man for the world morally be.
cause it can have. or does have little
or nothing to do with the cultivation
of the spiritual nature. In these
days of diverse opinions, he said, it is
regarded as beyond the proper sphere
of public educational instructions to
import religious Institutions in any de-
gree. The function of the school is to
rear intelligent citizens, competent
to transact business and social obliga-
tions as we'll as to grasp the princi-
piles of government and direct the ad-
ministration of the affairs of state.
This he held did not tend to make a
man more moral because there was
nothing in it that directed mans
mind in that direction. In summing
up his paper he said 'that the educa-
tion which shall be effective in the
cultivation of true morality and the
redemption of the world from crime
cannot be simply intellectual. 1t
must be the symetrical development
of all the factors which go to make
up complete man, the development
and culture, not of the brain alone,
but of the heart and the soul. 1t
must recognize the true nature of
man, his origin and his destiny, his
duty and his responsibility, not only
to himself and his fellows, but to the
Author of his being; it must inculcate
his allegiance to a super-human
power to whom allegiance and service
are regarded as justly due. 1t must
be education in the fear of God, in
loyalty, in virtue, in integrity, in all
that lifts man, born for eternity and
not for time"
Mr.. f. M. Currier, in opening the
discussion, reviewed some of the
causes which he thought lay at the
seat of the trouble, and held that
there could be no improvement Look
ed for until present conditions are
changed.
The discussion which followed was
most interesting one and centered
closely around the most important
points. Prof. Rowe pointed out what
the schools are doing and might be
led to do. Rev. Cleveland emphasiz-
ed many points in the paper. Said
reverence should first be secured In
the child, and it's will cultivated.
Rev. Beattie did not take much stock
in the statistics on the increase of
crime. Said in cities all crime was
ferreted out and laid bare in statis-
tics which showed tremendous in
crease in crime, while the frontier
town with its saloons and gambling
dens where no statistics are kept,
would show up as most yirtuous
place. He did not believe crime
was increasing. 1t was simply the
manner in reporting all of it to a
greater extent than ever before.
The next meeting will be held on
Tuesday evening, Oct. 13, when Mr..
w. D. Willard will read a paper on
