TROUBLE IN WHEAT GRADES.
RenvilIe County Farmers Claim
Minneapolis Is DISCRIMINATING,

The farmers of Renvllle and the farmers
In the vicinity are up in arms over that which
they claim to be a grave injustice in the
grading of wheat which is purchased by the
elevators in that town. They claim that the
managers of the elevators, which are situa-
ted on the Milwaukee road will not accept
wheat taken to them as more than third or
fourth grade, and pay the prices accord
ingly. When the wheat reaches Minneapolis
it is graded by the state grain inspectors as
second, and oftentimes first grade. When
the farmers take the same wheat to the Great
Northern road. a distance of fifteen miles
1t is graded at Duluth as they claim it should
be.
At mass meeting held Saturday night the
merchants appointed NJ. ]. Bowling, editor of
the Star Farmer, to come here to investigate
If there is difference in the grading of
wheat at Duluth and Minneapolis the people
of Renville think it should be made known
and the grading made uniform. If the Mil
waukee road and elevator companies are dis
eliminating against Renville farmers the mer-
chants think the matter should be remeded.
Mr.. Bowling registered at the Nicollet last
evening, and today will begin his investiga-
ton with the state and railroad officials.

Judgment until committee investigates tho
charges brought against the management So
far as Warden Wolfer is concerned, the
worst that has been alleged against him is
that he has placed so much confidence in his
deputy as to allow him to conduct the dis
cipline OF the prison without much inquiry
or supervision on his (the warden's) part.
There is the excuse that It is customary for
the warden to give his attention mainly to
the business of the prison and entrust it's
discipline almost entirely to the deputy. and
yet it is his duty to know that the assistant
officer is not abusing his confidence The
denial OF Warden Wolfer that Deputy Lemon
has any political pull so far as he is aware
may be sincere but II will be hard to con-
vince those who remember the prison scan
