seat in the church was taken, and
the audience showed their apprecia.
ton by encoring nearly every num-
Der. The singing 10y the Lady Quar-
tette als, "Schubert's serenade,' by
the quintette, were very pleasing
numbers. The solos by Miss De-
laney and Mrs. Purcell were also ex-
cellent, the cCntraltO voice IF the
latter being particularly enjoyed.
The elOcntionist Of the company, Mr..
McPike, is better in humorous selec-
tiOns than in his other Numbers.
Little Tommy Purcell is the particu-
lar star Of the company. His violin
solo was remarkable for one Ut his
years. Fills songs. Rotations and
whistling solo also showed musical
talent and versatility. His manner
il most charming at all times. The
instrumental numbers on the pro-
gram were not the least pleasing.
Little Falls will ever extend a warm
welcome to the Schubert company.

SPORT FOR FISHERMEN.
Bass, Croppies and "BulI
heads" in Northern Part
of the State.

Pioneer Press, Oct. 8 -Executive
Agent Fullerton, of the fish and
game commission, leaves this morn
ing over the Northern Pacific rail-
way with twenty cans of bass and
croppies and bullheads designed for
distribution.
The bullhcads will be dumped over
board in the river above the dam at
st. Cloud. 1t is claimed that there
no bullheads in. the river above this
point. These are intended to make
their home there and in time propa-
gate their species andmake sport for
the farmers boys of the upper river
district.
The crOppies will go mostly into
the lakes about Detroit BY some
strange circumstances there are no
crOppies in these lakes and the fist!
and game commission proposes to
remedy this oversight OF an other.
wise beneticent nature.
The bass in. the lot, about ten cans,
will be dist ibuted at various points
along the road. many of them about
Detroit.
This lot will make eightv-six cans
Of bass and croppies that have been
distributed this fall. They were all
caught in the slcughs along the
river in the vicinity of Red Wing.
The cans contain about $50 fish each.

IT WILL HELP FARMERS.
That Will be a.Result of Swift
e. Co. Coming to st.
Paul.

The establishment of cattle yards
and packing houses at the South st.

Chicago. can te regarded as Of great
benefit to the entire NOrthw est
That. firm is one OF the greatest In
the world in its line. While the
South st. Paul market has become
an Important one, 1t has never been
much more than a local center for
selling the cattle that were for the
Chicago market. The packing bust
was not Large enough to make 1t a
market for the cattle, on sale. and
most Of the stock was shipped ON tn
Chicago. The dressed beef sold in
the Northwest by the big packers.
was shipped from Chicago or Kansas
City. With Swift & Co., in business
in Minnesota the market for fat
cattle will be much better, and the
stock raiser will certainly get som
benefit of the saving in shipping
cattle hundreds of miles to distant
packing houses. and then shipping
the beef back. The stock raising bust
is bound to increase in Importance
in counties where land is cheap, corn
d good crop. aud hay plentiful. The
upper Mississippi valley is such a
district. and more attention to stock
will add to the prosperity OF the
farmers. With neiEhboring
market for fat cattle, there will be
more money than before in getting
title into perfect condition.
The coming of Swift & Co. to St.
Paul seems of benefit to the whole
state uf Minnesota.

Profits OF Good Roads.

Now, as to the profits in good roads.
The towns and cities which have made
entrance easy find that trade thereby
comes to them. Farmers desert old
markets for the new ones, although the
old markets may be nearer home, being
influenced by the knowledge Of how
much cheaper large loads may be hauled
over we'll made roads. OF course they
buy where they sell, and one consequent
gratifying result ia competition b.
tween business centers in tho matter q

FAVORS STATE AID.
The Cost Of Bedding Good Roads Should
Not Fall on the Farmer Alone.

The Cost of Bedding Good Roads Should
Not Fall on the Farmer Alone.
The League of American Wheelmen
has been the subject Of much criticism
on account Of it's agitation for better
highways We have been accused Of
selishness in the matter. It is believed
by many that we wheelmen expect
tanners to load themselves up with
taxes that they might build roads for
the convenience Of bicycle riders. No
greater mistake could be made, says o.
to Dorner. We Of the League Of Ameri-
can Wheelmen, who are engaged i'll this
agitation for better roads, feel that the
farmer today bears his full share Of
public taxation, and that it should not
be unnecessarily added to. We feel that
a mistake has been made in the past in
expecting farmers alone to pay for
building roads, and in leaving the en-
tire responsibility for our roads i'll their
hands.
The farmers of the United States are
but fraction of our population, and
they are by no means the only ones who
will profit by the construction OF good
roads. 1t is claimed that i'll the state Of
New York every farmer is obliged to
build roads for eight persons out Of the
states population. Why should not the
other seven contribute to the cost?
While good roads would save the farm
ers immense amounts in hauling prod
ucts, this saving would indirectly benc-
fit the whole population. Neither is the
farmer tho only one who travels the
country highways. Country merchants,
doctors and professional men, pcddlcrs,
pleasure seekers and, last but not least,
the wheelmen, would be directly bcne-
fitted by good roads. It is unjust, there
fore, that the farmers should pay for
building these roads.

School Sections on the Chip

Washington, Oct. 7.-Land Com
missioner Hermann was not quite
sure of the status of the question az
to whether the state Oi Minnesota IL

toned about the matter tonight.
His impression was that 1t was
pending before the secretary at this
time ind discussing State Auditor

lumber on one section, he said:
"The government would not take
any steps ito prevent the sale, OF tim
her by the auditor. Such sale wouid
be q more iGle act and would not
call for Intervention by the govern
ment. The government would step
in, however, should the purchaser
attempt to remove the timber or do
any other injury to the property
they will lay themselves liable t"
prosecution. az timber depradators
or tre6pdSSeFs.
1T is an open question with me
whether the state il entitled tn the
school lands on the Chippewa reser-
walton even though these LANDS have
been put up for sale or entry; my
Judgment IL that the question IL now
pending before the secretary, but l
cannot say as to that until after l
have had chance to look up the rec
ord.

ter any further at present because 1t
has not been called to my attention

A NEGLECTED. HIGHWAY.
from L. A. w. Bulletin

nothing Of the sort has been cone for
the common public road. It has been
the stepchild Of great nation. Equally
important in it's way with the railroad.
it has been left to shift for itself, while
the steel highway which spans the
country from ocean TO ocean has been
pctted aud pampered until it has grown
fat.
1t is this injustice to the common
road that the League Of American
Wheelmen is trying to remedy, and in
this effort it looks for assistance from
those who are most directly interested
in the subject-the farmers Of the Unit
ed States. Farmers are beginning to ap-
preciate this, and hence it is that our
work for state aid is continually gain
ing support among them. l am conf
dent that the combined efforts Of our or
ganization, with it's nearly 100. 900
members, and Of the agricultural so-
cieties and oranges will, in few years.
