A. BEDE'S DENIAL.

From his Budget. AZ a,>s.
In some OF our country ex.
changes we find now and then the
statement that the Budget, editor
has said Page Morris would be de-
feated if he ran for congress
against Charley Towne next year.
We wish to enter al unqualified
denial Of this charge, once for all.
We never said it, we never thought
it, and wouldn't have said it if We
had thought it. So there! The

causes. The best wheat of the
three states was in Northern Min.

territory IS tributary to Duluth,
and the receipts at that point
show so per cert Of No: I hard AID
No. l. Northern wheat. The

Nothing, except possibly, the

attention g yet, but there will Be
some tail hustling for good seed

Southern Minnesota and South
Dakota wheat Of the present crop
Is not OF the right quality for
seed. Unless ) radical change is
made there is no good reason to
expect very satisfact tory results

What IS true of southern territory
Is also true, but IN . less degree,
