From the Minneapolis Journal.
THE TURK WE.AkENS.
Minneapolis Flour Admitted
Into the City of Con-
stant,nopie.

A cablegram was received this
morning from the Constantinople
representative of w: shburn, Cros.
by & Co., saying that the entire
shipment of -four on the Athalla
had been admitted at that port
without question, the Turkish
custom officials having been in.
duced to remove their objections.
This triumph over the hard.hearted
and tricky Turk is guarantee Of
the purity of the -four from Min
neapolis mills and may be looked
upon as test case which will give
American flou, foothold in
Turkey which it will not lose.
The firm of Washburn, Crosby 4
Co. feels that it is indebted largely
to Congressman Fletcher and to
the Turkish minister at Washing
ton for the successful ending of
what looked like a serious matter.
Congressman Fletcher has ex-
planned by letter that the matter
would have been adjusted sooner
had it not been for religious frs-
tivities now going on in Turkey
and the consequent closing of all
Turkish departments for two
weeks. This made it. necessary
for the Tu, kish minister to tele-
graph the proper officials personally
to take up the matter Immediately.

A MUSICAL TREAT.
Royalton Band Concert De-
lighted q Large Audience
Monday Evening.

OF the large audience that attend
ed the concert by the Roy alton band
at the Gross opera house Monday
evening, all went home delighted
with the evenings entertainment.
and the audience was made up large
" OF that class Oi our citizens who
can appreciate good music.
In it's Fire Department band. Roy
alton has a musical organiza ton
that It's citizens have just reasons to
feel proud of. There IL probably not
another place Of it's size In the state
that has a band to equal it, and the
same can be said Of many larger
places. Under the direction and
leadership o j. NJ. Van Camp every
member has become a thorough
musician. and each number on the
program was rendered In such a per-
feet manner as to please and surprise
the audience, which attested it's ap-
probation in hearty rounds OF ap-
plause.
While every member III the band Ia
deserving of praise, Messrs. J, M.
Van Camp and H. NJ. Logan are
especially 50, for the cornet and
baritone solos rendered by them, re-
spectively.
The other features of the evenings
entertainment were the piano solos
by Miss Aimee Boyd, Rotations by
Miss Ada Boutwell,. and baton exer-
rises and club swinging by Bert Van
Camp. Miss Boyd's performance on
the piano was pronounced by those
capable Of approaching high class
music perfect. Miss Ada Boutwell,,
u daughter M Representative Bout
well. Of Wright county, though only
II years Of age, highly entertained
her hearers with several Rotations,
given in manner that would have
been creditatle to one much Older
and with more training and expert
ence in elOcutiOn. Bert Van Camps
club swinging and baton exercises
was also pleasing part Of the pro-
gram, and especially SO to those
who are interested in athletics. He
is son Of Attorney Van Camp, Of
Sank Center, and although now a
college student. it Is evident that he
has given attention to physical as
we'll as intellectual development.
At the conclusion Of the concert
the hall was cleared for the dance,
which followed. and large number
participated, including about twenty
couples from Royalton. who drove
up In the evening or came up on the
evening train. which stopped there
that evening for their accommoda.
tion. To-. Royalton orchestra fur
nished the music, and the dance was
enjoyed by all. The Band was
highly pleased with the patronage
received, as well as the appreciation
shown Of their efforts to entertain.

.suPREnE COURrDECIsIONs.
Lea ing Up to tho SteenersOn Case
d, cisious. Other Items Of
Interest.

The Steen. rson grain rate case
has created more or less discussio"
and has been regarded by many as
something new and novel III the
way of decisions Of the supreme
court of this state, but the fact is
that the principles Involved were
decided by that court long ago,
and what has been said in it's de-
cisions heretofore made clearly in
dicated what the result would b.
when such a case was reached.
For illustration, in 1885, in the
case of Rhodes vs., the Northern
Pacific Railway company, the
the court wiped out the plan Of
the railway companies whereby
they conferred upon elev tor CON-
panies an exclusive right to handle
grain at their stations through
elevators built by elevator com.
panies, and held that no elevator
monopoly could be created that
way.
The result of this case was to
confer upon Rhodes, the plaintiff,
who brought the action in the
Morrison County district court,
and all other persons, the right to
build elevators upon the rights of
way of railway companies wher.
ever railway company refused to
conduct an elevator itself and as
it's own.
Again in 1893 il the case of the
Farwcll Warehouse association vs..
the 500 road it was held that the
railway company was obliged to
give equal facilities for shipping
grain to any person who IN good
faith erected an elevator or grain
warehouse at station, and If the
company refused to lease the
elevator site to such person. and
he was obliged to buy adjoining
land and build his elevator thereon,
that the company must build him
a spur track so that the elevator
NAV be reached and the builder &C.
commodated. These decisions are
among those which led up to the
Stevenson case, aud there are
others Of the same import of which
we will speak at another time.
: The supreme court of this state
has zealously protected the rights
right Of the people and is recog-
nized throughout the land for the
soundness of its decisions.

The bill now before the legisla-
ture to give a state bounty of fifty
cents per ton on pig iron manu.
featured in Minnesota for period
Of ten years is attracting consider.
able attention. It is claimed by
the advocates of this bill that it
will build up an iron industry here
at home second to none in the
United States. 1t is admitted by
all that a bounty would tend to
establish the manufacture of iron,
but many are retlcent in declaring
themselves in favor of the measure
until they have heard full dis
cussion of the question.
Mr.. Staples has INTRODUCED a bill
in the house to build one insane
