THE STATE UNIVERSITY,

The catalogue of the State university
of Kansas for the year 500 has been
issued. In spite of the hard times
generally prevalent during the past
year there has been 4 substantial in
crease in the number of students en-
rolled at the university. The total at
tendance this year is $50, which in
Guides go men and $50 women. The
new building of physics and electrical
engineering as thrown open to the use
OF students for the first time last fall.
Various new courses, particularly in
pedagogy, have been added 10 the cur
riculum- Taking it all in all, the
university is in a fiourishing condition,
and maintains the high position ii holds
among educational Institutions.
An analysis of the attendance empha-
sizes the fact that the university is
a thoroughly representative institution.
the parentage of the students being di-
vided among the various occupations
as follows: Farmers, fl per cent; bus
mess men, 81 per cent; professional
men 10 per cent; clerks, artisans and
laborers, 8 per cent 1t is also an in
teresting fact that nearly one-half. as
per cent Of the entire body of students
are self-suppOrting. The last cata-
logue will be sent, and all inquiries con-
corning higher education answered, on
to Chancellor +. III. Snow.

greater power and luxury of the rich?
1t so, our civilization is a delusion
and it would have been infinitely bet
ter for mankind to remain in the ignor-
ance and lethargy of the middle ages,
for then contentment was not unknown
to the masses.
Mr. Editor, 1 am not pess imist,
nor given to alarming. I believe that
our civilization has brought untold
blessings to the race and that they will
gradually be more evenly and fairly
distributed. l believe in the patriot
ism and wisdom of our people to even
tually solve the problems that con-
front us rightly. But I think it is
not out OF place to drop a word of
warning when you see those in power
adopt a policy of retrogression, and
deliberately go and seat themselves
on the safety valve. 1twould be much
safer to heed the distant notes of warn
ing that we all hear. If the interests
now in control persist in shutting
their eyes and ears to all cries OF
distress, the conscience of the people
may be aroused and a reckoning de.
manded that will be both ruthless and
exacting.
Yours truly,
JOHN LIND.

Bro. Covell of the Atwater Re-
publican shows sign of kicking
against the star chamber politi-
cal ring that rules the destinies
of office seekers in Kandiyohi
Co. Here is what he says:
CHOW that the acknowledgements is
a thing of the past and the state ticket
has been decided upon, we have Aeen
expecting the announcement of The
formation of a slate for the county
offices. But silence reigns, and we
can gain acknowledge fthe innerwor
ings of Kandiyohi county politics.
Superintendent Covell called at our
office recently and declared his inten-
ton to 'make it interesting" for any
one who dared to oppose him in the
convention. Editor Burch also cal
led, and from what he said we come to
the conclusion that he wanted to i'm
press us with the fact that Atwater was
we'll represented in the county Offices
inasmuch as we have Solomon Porter
(who has been a resident of Willmar
fourteen years Jas county treasurer,
and B. S. Covell (who has not been a
resident of Atwater for six years. as
superintendent schools. We might
have claimed these gentlemen 'long
years ago." but we are now willing to
admit that Willmar has gained title
by adverse possession.
Bro. Covell must be novice
in politics if he expects the an.
nouncement of the slate for Coun.
ty officers. And to gain a know,
ledge of the inner workings OF
Kandiyohi office dispensatory
you must be one of the select few
Mr.. Covell. And to be that, you
must kick in the door leading tc
the inner sanctum and beard the

should be so brave and fortunate
as to. compel the junta to recog.
nize you, look out for the man

SURVEY WAS FRAUDULENT.
Judge Morris Awards Valuable Lands to
Settlers.

Judge MOTIFS awards valuable Lands 60
Settlers.
DULUTH, July ia peculiar suit has
been decided here by Judge Morris in
the district court. In 1876 the surveyor
general gave one Howe contract to
survey SILLY. He made up plat and it
now does duty as state plat. It seems,
however, that his survey was never
made, and that the plat was made
largely. from imagination. A large
tract Of valuable pine land is represented
on the map as being in the lake. The
Security Land and Exploration COM
pany secured large piece of
land in this section, which is
near the Mesaba range, running up to
the meander line Of the lake. In 1891,
G. a. Burns and Henry Mickey settled
on the land between the lake shore and
the line which, on the map, falsely rep.
resented the lake shore. The Security
company began suits to have them
elected, claiming that their holdings
ran up to the lake shore. Judge Morris
held that the survey was fraudulent and
that the Security company could only
bold Land up to the line marked on th
map. The line in dispute is given to
the settlers. g. Il. - .~..

1.-THE consolidating of the forces of
reform is much more easy of accomp-
lishment than appears at the first
glance. In. states where democrats
are strongest let them have the head
of the state ticket; where the populists
are strongest give them the head of the
ticket. Working from this plan the
state of Minnesota would be left for the
populists. That is just as it should be.

JOHN LIND IN 1898.

Under date of December 20,
1898, the following letter appear
ed in Murray County Advance: s
EDITOR ADVANCE: I can only
take time to pen a few words.
BY the grace of Grover Cleve
land and Wall street the Sher-
man silver law has been uncon-
ditionally repealed and silver as
a money metal has ceased to exist.
Those who feel so disposed can
now join with Grover in congrat-
ulating the administration and
the country that under his guild
ance congress has eliminated the
fallacies that the founders of our
institution permitted to creep
into that antiquated document
called the constitution.
l would escape these reflec-
tions if could, but my lot was
cast to live among the common
people-people who work, the
vast majority of whom live only
by their labor. They are my
neighbors. They are around and
about me on all sides and in all
directions. I cannot shut my
eyes to conditions that afflict
them. If [ had been reared, or
lived, in the environment of Wall
street, and had the good, or ill
fortune Il don't know which, to
belong to the class represented
by the Paynes, the Whitneys, the
Hornblowers, the VanAllens, o.
neys, the Drexels, Morgans, Bel
monts, their (cent a copy organs
and satellites, then I. too, would
probably worship Grover Cleve-
land. To them, he, and his re-
gime, is indeed Messiah. He
came in the nick of time. He
filled, so to speak, a long felt
want. The bounty of our natural
riches, the lands and grants, the
coal fields, the oil and timb ered
lands have been pretty well exploi.
ted--even the railroads, that fer
tile source of millionaries, are no
longer so "renumerative," In
fact, since the adjustment of the
Louisiana lottery and the appoint
ment Of Cal Brice to the senate

des nor let's go) the prospect has
