BEAUTIFYING MORRIS.

There are few cities in the state OF
Minnesota where the citizens are so
uniformly fond of their home town as
are the people of Morris. And rightly
we may be. Few, if any, cities OF
1000 population do the business IN
the course of a year which Morris
does. None have more public spirited
business men. Educational facilities
here are the best. Few buildings in
town are better than those devoted to
religious service. In short, Morris
stands at the head in all those inter-
ests which indicate an Intelligent,
PROSPEROUS and cultured community,
except one item to which attention
needs only to be directed to be
eradicated.
That which we refer to is easily
surmised. A birds eye view OF our
city shows that the streets are regu
Iarly laid out, that most of them are
lined with shade trees-thanks to the
early residents that the fairness
of this prairie country is here relieved
by the hill which is crowned by the
citidal of Justice. But on nearer view
how we find the natural beauty of the
city marred by the litter which is al
lowed to accumulate in back alleys,
back yards, side streets and wherever
there are vacant lots. Let all these
heaps eff refuse material be hauled
away. Let the attention which IS
lust now being bestowed on the front
Yards extend to the back yards also,
so that when the verdancy of spring
appears in all it's beauty, Morris may
greet the new life with a freshness
BETTING the season. Then, too, Ar
Dor Day is not far distant, being Fri
day, April 20, and by planting more
trees on that day is still another way
of further identifying Morris.

Humanity and Profit.

There is little paper, called Our
Dumb Animals, published in Boston
that we sincerely wish was in every
household in the land. Itteaches the
true religion of kindness to animals in
most convincing way.
t Here is little excerpt, written by
h editor Mr.. George T. Angel
a good name that for such a man
which we wish every reader wou Id
ponder WE'LL
every unkind treatment to the COW
poisons her milk. Throwing stones
at her, frightening her, even talking
unkindly to her,may poison the milk"
Of cource there are lots of men who
will say "bosh" to that. What they
have never seen does not exist. But
let us inquire into it little.
The COW is mother. The same law
of maternity governs her that governs
the human mother. Concerning the
human mother we have a long line of
history recorded by physicians for
hundreds of years, THERE'S abund-
ant testimony in many cases going to
show that where women nursing
babe we're thrown into excessive anger
or fear that their milk produced con-
vulsions in the babe. Every physi-
clan and every experienced woman OF
today knows how important it is for
the nursing babe that its mother
maintain kind and peaceful frame
of mind.
There are facts, showing that the
emotions of the mother affect the
quality of her milk and make it whole
some or unwholesome.
Men who have observed COWS close
ly are certain that this is just as true
of the bovine as the human mother,
There is such lot of stupid, lgno-
rant men keeping COWS. In many
cases they are too brutal by nature to
deal with any thing that has life, and
too lazy to makean effort to know
whether their ideas are right or wrong.
One would think that their own pro-
fit, the money they hope to get from
their COWS, would teach them the val
ne of kindness. But they are just as
stupid in knowing where adollar is as
in anything else. There are two in
dividuals committed to their care that
always have our sympathy-their
wives and their COWS. Female life of
any kind has hard time with such
men.

considerable work on The Independ-

AMERICA and England are being
drawn closer and closer together as
each day passes. But for the influences
which Great Britain is bringing to
bear upon the powers of Europe, a
naval demonstration against the Uni
ted States might not be altogether
unexpected. Alfred Austin, the poet
laureate of Great Britain, an ardent
advocate of Anglo-American friend
ship, has just given the following to
the press:
What is the voice hear
On the wind of the Western sea?
Sentinel, listen from out Cape Clear
And say what the voice may be.
IT'S proud free people, calling loud to a
people proud and free.
And it says to them 'Kinsmen, hailv
We severed have been too long;
Now let US have done with wornout tale
The tale of an ancient wrong,
And Our friendship last long as love doth
last and be stronger than death is
storng."
Answer them, sons of the selfsame race,
And blood of the self same clan;
Let US speak to each other, face to face,
And answer as man to man,
And loyalty love and trust each other as
none but free men can.
Now fling them out to the breeze,
Shamrock, thistle and rose,
And star spang1ed banner unfur1 with
these,
A message to friends and foes,
Wherever the sails of peace are seen and
wherever the war wind blows.
message to bond and thrall to wake,
For wherever we come, we twain,
The throne of the tyrant shall rock and
quake.
And his menace be void and vain;
For you are lords of strong young land
and we are lords of the main.
Yes, this is the voice on the bluff March
gale:
ave severed have been too long;
But now we have done with a wornout
tale,
The tale of an ancient wrong,
And our friendship last long as love doth
last and be stronger than death is
strong.

A LITTLE SUFFERER


Face, Hands and Arms Covered With
ScrofuIous Humors How a Cure
Was Effected.
"When five years old my little boy had
scrofula on his face, hands and arms. 1t
was worst on his chin, although the sores
on his cheeks and hands were very bad.
1t appeared in the form of red pimpIes
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. After disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep him
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed at his condition. My
wifes mother had had scrofula and the
only medicine which had helpd her was
Hoods Sarsaparilla. We decided to give
it to our boy and we noted an improve
ment in his case very soon. After giving
him four bottles of Hoods SarsapariIla
the humor had all been driven out of his
blood and it has never since returned" .

WASHINGTON LETTER.

From The Trlbune's Regular Correspondent.
Those who have the idea that all
bankers lay awake nights studying up
schemes to "do'' the government or
the people, should carefully study the
following patriotic letter from Mr..
Edwin E. Poor, president of the Ma
tional Park bank, one of New York
City's prominent financial institutions
to Secretary Gage, ''In the event of
the government requiring funds for
use in the present crisis the facilities
and resources of this bank are hereby
offered for that purpose; and should
congress authorize an issue of bonds
for popular investment, we desire to
offer the services of this bank, with
its 5000 correspondents in all parts of
the country, for che distribution of
the bonds to the people, without COM
mission Or charge of any kind"
***
Those Democratic members of the
house who charged that President
McKinley's message was not sufi-
GENTLY explicit as to an independent
government for Cuba, simply dis
played their ignorance of what every
man who pretents to act as statesmen
should know. After Representative
Lentz, of Ohio, and several other
Democrats, had made themselves
ridiculous by adopting as their own
the views of the yellow journals on
the meaning of the presidents mes
sage, Gen. Grosvenor proceeded to
show them just what long ears they
possessed. He began by quoting from
the presidents message that para
graph asking congress to authorize
him to bring about peace land to Sc
cure in the island the establishment
of a stable government, capable of
maintaining order and observing its
international obligations" and fol-
lowed by saying: "Now, l ask any
gentleman on the other side to tell me
how government on an island of
any country controlled by foreign
country, as Cuba is now, can have a
government capable of discharging its
international obligations? What are
international obligations? Do colon
lists have international obligations7
Did the president understand that
there can be colonial condition in
Cuba by which there would be inter
national Obligations from that govern
ment? What international act does
Canada do? What international act
has any of the West India islands
ever done? What representative of
this government goes to Jamaica,
Porto Rico, or any island except those
independent The very language of
the president, as understood by every
intelligent man and men of thought,
is that the object and purpose of
using force is to establish a govern
ment with international obligations
and with the power to discharge those
international obligations"
~
Representative Hepburn, of Iowa,
made singing retort to Democratic
aspersions upon the presidents Cuban
policy. He opened by declaring that
sometimes misstatementi is ogross
that it reaches the dignity of false
hood, and falsehood SO gross that it
becomes mendacity, and mendacity
so foul that it becomes scoundrelism,"
and closed by referring those who
were foolish enough to discuss the
possibility of any otner than repub
lican form of government for Cuba to
the Monroe doctrine. All through last
week the Democrats in the house have.

Printed Programmes of the Races
Are WTOfuIIy Inaccurate.
Much dissatisfaction was expressed
among spectators at the races yester-
day concerning the seeming lack Of
management and system in connection
with the track events. There is abso"
lutely no way in which those Witnessing
the races can know or keep track or
the horses, as the programme sold Is
entirely worthless.
The cOlors and numbers given do not
correspond with the "colors Of the
drivers cap" half Of the time and the
number on the drivers arm, which
should correspond to the number OPP
pOsite a horses name on the card, sell
dom does so. By reason Of these mac
curacies a spectator with a programme
is in much more of a dilemma than
one without.
Where the fault lies is question. AT
the weighing room the clerk in charge
equixeoriVers for each race, 80 If Driver
No. II is in two races he uses the same
number in both events, completely mix
ing things up. This being the case it
is claimed the fair management should
not permit the programmes to be sold,
or else should furnish numbers enough
to go around.
Starter Grattan said yesterday that
the programme was of no account at
all and complained of the inefIiciency
of the track clerks who, he says, make
mistakes because Of their inexperienced.

CHICKEN SHOW.
Poultry Department Has n Large As
sOrtment of Fine Fowl.

Everything was complete yesterday
in the poultry department. The field
Is large and includes some Of the best
scoring fowl in the country. Exhibits
in this department as we'll as the others
are not limited to home competitions
but include those from all parts Of the
country. However, it cannot be SAID
that the foreign entries were one bit
superior to the hOme-bred poultry, as
is evidenced by the awards made by
the judges yesterday, published in an
other column.
In the pigeon room there were over
500 entries Of pigeons, a much larger
field than was entered in the state
poultry show last winter. One pair were
valued at $25.
The Minnesota exhibitors in this de-
partment are P. M. Bly, & Co., Of Min
neapolis; Talklo Krake & Co., Minneapo-
lis; Strassen Brothers, st. Paul; F. B.
Carr, Minneapolis; William Schultz, ST..
Paul; w. H. Schulze, st. Paul, ana
Goette & Schroeder, St. Paul. The lat
ter firm have about twenty entries IN
the competition for premiums in this
department. The single comb White
Leghorn and Silver Laced WyandOttes
were their specialties. They took prizes
in both classes.
Mrs. William Schultz, of st. Paul
had a large number of birds in the
show, perhaps the largest Of any. Her
Golden Laced Wyandottes took first
prize, and her Pekin Ducks, Of which
she had nearly a dozen pairs on the
floor, were also scored high by the
judges.
There is q, goodly representation Of
each variety of fowl raised in this state
in the show and during their wakeful
hours they make themselves heard.
