NO STATE HOSPITAL
NEEDED ..-

The Luverne Herald, in speaking of
The failure to secure the building of
fourth insane hospital, thinks it was
a good thing for the stale and will
prove great saving to it in tnan-
eial way, while the insane will be just
as well looked after. The law which
was enacted providing for an exam
inatiOn of the patients in the hos
pitfalls for the purpose of ascertaining
whether or not there are those con-
lined there who ought not to be there,
is working we'll, it says, and will pro-
vide much relief for the hospitals,
while the adoption Of the so called
Wisconsin system would do away with
all need for another expensive hos
pital. The Herald further says:
Secretary Hart, of the board Of
corrections and charities, at the time,
gave it as his opinion that the ex, Gu.
ton of this law would remove about
100 patients frC N the three hospitals.
Later Development indicate that if
the same number are found at other
hospitals as have been found at ST.
Peter, the number discharged will
probably be nearer 200 Most Of those
discharged, presumably, will be Of the
more aged inmates, and St. Peter, as
the Oldest hospital in the state, prob
ably has larger proportion Of this
older class Of patients than the other
two.
"The wisdom of the action taken
by the legisla ture is being demon
strated by results. The enlargement
Of the capacity of the asyiumS and
bhe discharge of patients which are
not proper subj Acts for treatm mt 10
these institutions, are accomplishing
the end sought to be attained by the
erection of fourth asylum, and no
one can now successfully contend that
any necessity exists for another asy-
lum. Now let, the Wis ;onsin system
be adopted and Minnesota will never
have OCCASION to build any more in
sane asylums"

The Washington correspondent of
the New York Journal, WHO so gets
his stuff into the columns of the Min
neapois Times, has, after a long
period of wakeful nights, decided as
to how he will have President Nc
Kinley's message. He has decided he
will have it the weakest state paper
since the days of Franklin Pierce. He
will also have it very vel bose, land says
it will deal 10 nothing but general
ties 1t will take no decided stand
upon any topic, He has willed it thar
the president has cut loose from his
cabinet, and will give no decided en-
dOrsement to the views Of any of its
members on any SUBJECT, but in a
weak way will antagOniZe them all.
The worst feature of the whole thing
is, in the opinion of the Journals
young man, that the president will
not admit that the Dingley law is a
failure. This is indeed terrible
thing and is likely to shake the gov
government to its very center. The
idea that the president should refuse
to admit as a failure law that has
helped returning confidence, and
caused the workshops and factories Of
the land to open for business again, is
to the yellow journalistic sprig, an
awful sign of weakness. But 1T is
altogether probable the county will
survive the shock, and it is to be
hoped the young man will read the
real article aud carefully note where
ia be missed il. Mr.. Mckinley may
widely disagree with his outline.

The New York Mail and Express
says: Senator Wolcott comes home
from his bmetallic explorations in
Europe to find that his own state of
Colorado bids fair TO become more of
gOlo than silver com mOnwea!th.
Its output OF gold has Increased from
S8,00O,OCO 10 1898 to the estimated
figure Of S22,00O,000 for 1897 an in
crease of nearly 800 per cent. in four
years, thus surprising California.
The silver product remains about sta
tionary, being Sl2, 3OOO,OOO. Moreover,
the output OF gold promises to in
crease until it surpasses that of the
Rand in South Africa. These figures
ought to make Mr.. Teller ponder.

HIS RESIGNATION.
Mr.. c. L. Van Fleet, Secretary
of the Citizens Fire Associa-
r ton Goes to Albert Lea.
Ar. L. A. Under, Treasurer of the
r.. Association Also Resigns.

The regular monthly meeting OF
the directors of the Citizens Fire As
ISOLATION will be held tomorrow night,
and quite number of changes in the
officers tand employees will occur.
Mr.. G. l.. Van Fleet for The past two
Years the efficient secretary OF the
association, will tender his resig-
nation to be. Immediately &C
cepted. He has recently been elected
assistant secretary OF the Consolidat-
ed Fire and Marine Insurance COM
pany, new stock company recently
organized at Albert Lea with a capt.
tol stock of 100000. Mr.. Van Fleet
is a first class insurance man. He
has been in the fire insurance bust
ness for twenty years and has wide
acquaintance throughout the state.
He will no doubt prove valuable
official to his new company.
Miss Tyrrill, for the past two years
bhe efficient stenographer in the
office, severed her connection with
5he association day or two ago to
accept a similar one with the Albert
Lea company.
Mr.. L. A. Linder, the treasurer of
the association, has handed in his
resig nation, and it will no doubt be
accepted by the directors tomorrow

NO PUNISHMENT TOO Sc
WERE,

The St. Paul Pioneer Press in COM
menting upon the m ethod Of adulter-
ating flour with preparation of
starch obtained from corn, thereby
making a very indigestible food,
says:
The fraud is one the mere discovery
of which in our own land should at
once have brought about the con tisca-
tion of the whole adulterdJed product
wherever found and the imprlsun-
ment OF every one concerned in it,.
The liberation it has met is full Of
peril to our most valuable interests.
Laws now in existence should be found
sut1icient,in the hands of public prose
culOrS anxious to do their duty, to
squelch the whole shameful business.
LII not, let congress be again appealed
to.
The Pioneer Press is right. Bread
is the staff of life, and any attempt at
lowering its quality should meet
swift punishment The adulteratioD
is confined to she cheaper grades Of
four, and is all the worse on that &C
count. Another danger from this
adulteration is that it is likely to
seriously effect our -four trade abroad
All honest millers everywhere ought
to join in an effort to stamp out the
fraud. If there are those who wish to
practice such method, let them be
made to properly label their product,
so that people may know what they
are getting.

Observation-Disclosures

There is a temporary lull In the
supply of nonsensical political proph-
ecies which the. Jays and other ignor-
ramuses have been sending out of
late. The stuff was pure rot and the
few who read 10 were nauseated by 1T.
Austin Transcript.
While there was necessarily more
or less chaff in the matter that was
written, there was little or none of it
that could be denominated as pure
rot" 1t served the purpose for which
it was intended, and in that way did
a good work. 1t was put out for the
purpose of getting the people to dis
cussing the matter Of state politics
and cause them to become acquainted
with what the professional politicians
desired, and it aroused more interest
then is usually the case year ahead
of the campaign. So far as we have
noticed, the fellows who feel the worse
over it are the politicians who dislike
to have anything said until they get
the wires we'll in hand, and the peo-
pie have considerable information
that will serve them well If they will
but use it, The discussion is one that
does the public no harm.
