Minnesota never neglects an oppor-
tunity to show her colors or bear the
burdens of the Republican party. 1t
was the first state to tender troops to
Lincoln. 1t is one of two states that
has never failed to go Republican
since it's admission to the Union
Just now it furnishes the secretary for
the National Business Mems League,
the National Sound M ney League
and the National Republican League,
and was the first State to engage head
quarters in Detroit for it's delegation
to the tenth annual convention of the
National Republican League. This
convention promises to be of great
Importance and the most largely at
tended in the history of the organiza-
ton. The dates are July Ii, IA, and
Is. All railroads offer reduced rates.

EXPENSIVE ECONOMY.

THE school meeting on Tuesday de
cided to erect cheap building Tor
school purposes to take the place OF the
Fisher buildidg now rented, and pro-
vide for the over-crowd in the main
building. The new building will cost
from twelve to fifteen hundred dollars,
and is designed to be temporary al
fair only-say for six or eight years
.-whena good building will have to be
erected. In other words, the school
board will probably throw away the
building after such use a loss OF two
or three hundred dollars a year. The
interest on the cost of good substan-
tial structure, which would be an or
na,nent 10 the city and a credit to the
school system, would be only S4oO
a year-it costing no more-probably
less, to heat and care for the better
building. The only items to be legiti-
mately considered in the comparison
isthe difference in the cost OF the struc-
ture during the time the temporary one
is in use, which is shown ABOVE TO pe
rather less than more than $500 a year.
The assessed valuation of the district
is $40. 900: and the tritiing, in fact i'm.
perceptible increase of third OF
mill per year would provide for the
difference between the proposed credit.
able school house and the one authoriz-
ed by the meeting. In otherwords, ajax
payerwhose assessed valuation ISL, OOC
would pay thirty cents more year for
the next five or six years for the better
building. 1t is astonishing that tax
payers, even the largest, are best able
always to pay their taxes, will not see
that such bnilding as the school
needs will be the cheapest in the long
run But the appeal to local pride so
forcibly made by DR.. Lewis fell upon
unsympathic ears.

s'The Boston Herald" says that
Mark Twain once attended mission
airy meeting in Hartford, at which a
missionary made an address. After
listening to the agonizing story of suf-
fering, Mark Twain said to himself:
"For Gods sake, send that plate a.
round, SO that can pour my SYM
pathy into it. III give you these four
one-hundred dollar bills, and if can
get a piece of paper, I'll write check
for something more. can very we'll
spare little money for a cause like
that" But the lecturer went on talk
ing, and as he taikeu, Twdin's enthu-
siasm Gained and the red flush OF his
sympathy became paler. "And when
the missionary had been talking about
half an hour had saved one of those
bills, and when he had talked five min
utes more, two of those bills were mine
again and when he had been talking
anhour, l had won all four back, and,
by gosh, when he finally did send that
plate round, | borroweds::lO cents out
OF it to pay my car-fare home. =

Hon. S. G.. Comstock has been men,
toned by several papers as a candidate
for governor. If the Republicans OF
Minnesota desire to choose a standard
bearer whose character and reputation
are stainless they cannot find better
man than Solomon G.. ComstOck Heis
a man of wide experience in public at
fairs and has been successful in manag-
ing his own business. There is nOman
in the state who can say a word against
the public record or private character
OF Mr.. Comstock. He is free from the
tricks of politicians or he might now
be occupying place high above that
of plain citizen of MOorhead. One
thing is certain, Mr.. COmstOck VIII not
buy the nomination with promises or
ANYTHING more tangible. If the people
of his political faith decide to confer
upon him the honor of nomination
he will gladly accept and go into the
fight to win. Ii on the other hand,
any clique of politicians attempts to
trade upon Mr.. Comstock's prestige
they will soon discover that he will
have none of it.-Moorhead Indepen-
dent.
The HERALD endorses every word OF
the bove eulogy of Mr.. .Comstock, tie
writer having been somewhat intimate
ly acquainted with him for many years.
To know him is to honor and respect
him. Northern Minnesota has never
had the recognition in the state ticket
to which it is entitled. and the nomi-
nation of Mr.. ComstOck is eminently
fitting from purely sectional view.
Neither Minneapolis nor ST. Paul de-
sire the gubernatorial nomination for
any one of their statesmen-they do
not care to enter the senatorial cam
paign thus handicapped. 1t seems to
be conceded that rural Minnesota will
have the nomination and certainly no
more available candidate can be named
than S. G.. ComstOck of MOorheaG.

The school meeting.

Pursuant to call, a school meeting
was held on Tuesday afternoon which
was very largely attended-for a
school meeting. There were fully~a |
hundred pers ons present, every seat in
the Assembly room being filled.
Lyman r. Barto was selected to pre-
side. and J. F. Cooper was elected
secretary. Mr.. Woodbury., secretary
OF the school board was called upon
to make a statement relative to the
condition of the school accommoda-
tions. and the needs and requirements.
| He said that the present seating ca
pacity of the school property owned
by the district was $40, and the aver
age attendance 472 during the past
year, the enrolment being 606. In
| 1894 enrolment was $50 and the aver
age attendance 4S5, and back in the
early winters the enrolment was $40.
In other words the school enrolment
has not very materially increased dur
ing the past six years, and was larger
during the academic year OF 9i and
5 than during that of '95 and 6. Mr..
Vath was of the opinion that when
the silver craze influence had expired
and better times returned that the
public school would show a falling off
, still greater, as pupils would be able
to indulge their desire attend private
institutions of learning. DR.. Lewis
thought that the reason decrease
was shown was the fact that present
accommodations were inadequate,
and that scholars from the outside
who desire to enter our schools were
denied the privilege. He believed in
, a .libral policy that would welcome
. every young person seeking the ad-
vantage of better school to come to
Sank Centre. He advocated a per-
manent shool building which would be
credit to the city, and offered to
give tangible expression to this de-
sire by Offering his check for $50. 90
toward such building. Mr.. Sprague
thought that building to cost a
thousand or fifteen hundred dollars
would be sufficient to meet the pres
ent requirements. He objects to any
increase of taxes at this time. A
resolution was offered, as suggested
in the call, by Mr.. Hogan, that good
building be erected upon lot to be
purchased for that purpose at a cost
not to exceed $4,000. This was voted
down. He then offered the record
proposition named in the call-the
purchase of the Congregational church
property. This did not receive a
single affirmative vote. The third
proposition, the erection of a frame
building not to exceed 81, 500, on the
present school property, was submit
ted and adopted. The resolution en-
powers the school board to erect a
frame building suitable for school
purposes. and to finish and equip the
same. The proposed plan is to put
up building 36x4S feet, with two
rooms, providing two will be suffi-
cient, seven feet east of the Lord
building. There was considerable
cursory discussion, participated in
by number of those present, and
considerable Interest developed.

IF the capitol commission can stand
the pressure being brought to bear by
the loyal intelligence of the. state in
favor of Minneso ta stone, it will be
brought to book by the pressure of un-
employed labor. There is no sense in
employing outside labor for strictly
inside enterprise. By the way it is
said that law passed in 1885 makes it
imperative that Minnesota stone be
used unless an attempt be made to
nullify the law by a combination to
force the price of the home product
above legitimate prices.
What sort of an ADMINISTRATION can
beexpected of a state government doing
business in an Ohio or Iowa stone

Deafness. Cannot be Cured

By local applications. as they can
not reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
Deafness, and that is by constitution

an infamed condition of the mucous

this tube gets infiamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deafness
is the result, and unless the inflamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to it's normal condition, hear
