Hon. E. J. HILL, of Connecticut,
who is a member of the House COM
mittee on banking and currency,
and also of that on coinage, is
authority for the statement that
88.48 per cent of the worlds bust
ness is transacted on a gold basis
and only 2.88 on a silver basis, the
remaining 1854 per cent being done
with irredeemable paper and other
substitutes for coin. The idea OF a

party that they can induce the peo-
pie OF this great country to cut
loose from the SO per cent and Join

how wild and impractical some
Democratic notions can be. They

BABCOCK CYLINDER PRESS "RELIANCE."

manufactured by the Babcock
Printing Press Manufacturing Co.,,
OF New London, Conn.,, has a capac-

A gasoline engine furnishes the mo-
tive power for this press, a Chandler

Sidney folder, which will fold the
papers as fast as they can be print
ed. This whole outfit was purchas-
ed by us from the Minnesota Type
Foundry Co., Of ST.. Paul. Their
Mr.. Burucker was here last week
setting up the machinery. 1t is an
outfit Of which any country printing
Office may well be proud. 1t is a
credit also to the City Of Warren to
have a modern and we'll equipped
printing establishment, and we trust
the business men of the town, and
the citizens generally, will appreciate
this stroke OF enterprise on our
part by giving the SHEAF, in it's ad-
vertising columns as we'll as it's sub
scription list, a hearty and liberal
support. 1t is not wholly for our
own benefit that we have gone to
this great expense in providing our

IN OUR OWN BEHALF
\ New Babcock Cylinder Press, 3
Folder and a Gasoline Engine
added to the SHEAF Print
ing Establishment.

The placing Of a new printing
press in it's office marks an epoch
in the history OF the WARREN SHEAF.
In 1879, the year it was established,
it started out with a small Army
press, which in few years gave way
to a larger Washington hand press,
a muscle developer. This press was
superseded in 1886 by a second
hand stop cylinder press turned by
hand power. This press has done
service up to the present time. In
these different changes from one
press to another there was progress,
but the greatest improvement, the
greatest stride forward, was made
last week when a bran new Babcock
cylinder press, ''the Reliance" was
installed into our printing establish
ment. This model printing press,

existence of neatly twenty years. It
has shared in the joys and sorrows
OF the people OF Marshall county dur
ing two decades. 1t has stood by
the people and the people have stood
by it. We sincerely believe that a
new and better era is about to dawn
upon tile people in this country, es.
pecially in the Northwestern era Of
increased prosperity for all. The
past few years have witnessed very
marked Improvement in the condi-
tions OF the farmers of Marshall
county. The majority are getting
IN good circumstances. The change
IN conditions now and twenty years
ago is almost as great as the change
from the old Army press to the Bah
cock cylinder press in the SHEAF
office. We hope to see the farmers
continue to prosper, for then we
know that the SHEAF and the city OF
Warren will grow and prosper, too.
simultaneously with getting the
new press the size Of the paper has
also been increased from five to a
SIX column quarto, making it the
largest as we'll as the most widely
circulated paper in Marshall county.

BETHESDA HOSPITAL.

1t is not generally known that
there is a we'll equipped hospital in
Crookston where those sick and sui
fering may receive good care and
treatment by skillful physicians at
very low prices. 1t is an Institution
that deserves to be known and liber-
ally supported by the people in this
part OF the valley, and we therefore
gladly publish the following account
OF the annual meeting OF the associ-
alton having this benevolent work
in hand. 1t is from the Crookston
Tribune of March 22: u.
''The Bethesda Hospital Associ-
alton held it's annual business meet
ing here yesterday. This organiza-
tiou was perfected a year ago, and
the Bethesda hospital has been in
operation about nine months. The
result OF these nine months work of
the hospital, as it appeared from the
different reports, is a surprise even
to the most sanguine. The hospital
has been welcomed by the public in
general, and has received a most
liberal support in contributions and
patronage. $50 patients have been
treated during these nine months.
Considering the expenses connected

pital no one expected every bill paid

that increased business will Justify
