An inferior quality of money always
cheats the Garner of wages. Capital
knows all the ways and means of
guarding against contingencies, and
labor has not the chance to do so.
The fact that the silver standard of
money is everywhere associated with
impoverished, servile labor tells the
story.

There is a vacant chair at the Banner
House every Sunday evening, in other
words familiar face is missing and we
think before this becomes an estab-
lished custom we should make COM
plant. In case we should bring action
in this matter ask Prof. E. K. Green if
he thinks he could prove an alibi.
Hon. J. T. McCleary spent Friday
last in Lamberton, his mission being to
settle the postoffice scrap at this place.
He made thorough canvass of the vii
lage, and now has the matter squarely
before him for consideration. There is
no doubt but that the postoffice will
fall to Mr.. Tretbar, who has been an
efficient Republican worker and is de-
serving of Mr.. McCleary's patronage.
Lamberton was billed for lecture
last Friday evening, and, as a, result,
there were a number at Morton's hall
to listen to some reminiscenceslo of the
late campaign as expounded by the de-
feated party. Miss Johnson, the ''Spell
Binder" who vainly endeavored to
keep her audience awake found but a
very few sympathizers, as Republican
ism is good enough for the average cit
izen.

A remittory and mandate in the case
of Justin F. Jones VS.. The Northern
Trust Co., assignee, etc., came from
the Supreme Court last Monday to
Clerk Warner of the district court.
The Supreme Court reversed Judge
Weber in the case and ordered new
trial, which will probably come off at
the November term of the district
court. The case is oDe arising out of
a discrepancy of over $3 500 alleged to
have been deposited by Jones in the
Citizens Bank when that institution
was solvent.
The Redwood Falls Cooperative
creamery made LIP pounds during
the week ending last Saturday even
ing, and of this amount, every pound,
excepting 307 pounds, was sold in
the local market. This is superb
testimonial on the part of Redwood
Falls business men to the creamery
and to the farmers who patronize it.,
as we'll as to the residents of this city,
who believe in standing by home in
dustries. It is such purchases as this
that build up city and country and
both city people and farmers should
appreciate the fact.
Mrs. Scovel, State President of the

done in the % years of it's existence.
She said it was the means by which a
law was on the statute books of every
State and territory, except four, re-
curing the teaching of scientific tenn
perance instruction in the public
schools. Mrs. Scove] gave an address

It is now almost certain that O. W.
Mcmillan, assisted by his mother and
wife, will take charge of the CONNER
cial Hotel in the near future. Ifpres-
ent arrangements are carried out the
hotel will undergo thorough interior
renovation, steam heating and consid-
cradle of plumbing will be added, and
the linens, table service, etc., will be
entirely new. Mrs. Mcmillan senior
and O. w. have had extensive exper-
fence in running a hotel in this city,
having been connected with the Ex-
change hotel years ago, and both are so
we'll acquainted with the travelling pub
lie that the hotel will meet with success
from the start. Their temperance in
the hotel business will be in response
to a popular demand to have the Com
mercial again opened to the travelling
public.
