The Question Of Rock.

Road builders have been going over
the grounds adjacent to the public road
from here to Hamper Sidney, inspect
ing rock beds and ascertaining the cost
Of blasting and hauling the same to
the crusher This preliminary step is
necessary to an intelligent estimate
ofthe cost TO the county to macadam-
ize the road. OF course, the shorter
the hauls Of rock the less it will cost
the county to have macadam done.
Where there are rock scattered over
farm lands alongside the road, we
doubt not the owners will be only two
glad to have them gathered into piles
and hauled Off his place. The county
would be saved a considerable amount
in the estimates Of contractors bidding
for the work if the rocks that are on
farms nearby the road from Farmvlle
to Hampden-Siduey were offered free
for macadam.

PRODUCE IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Some Enterprises Needed That
Would Pay.

AS Redwood Falls is the centre of
a great agricultural district, there
are, no doubt, many who would like
to know something about the dairy
ing and farming here.
The insurgents hold all ter
ritory within five miles of the city
and of course one has very limited
knowledge of the country at large.
However, the land here is divided
up into tracts of about one acre, and
enclosed by ahedge of lotus or bam-
boo. Around two sides run an ir
rigation ditch. which seems strange
as it rains most every day and the
water rises within three feet of the
surface. At the corner of each lot
is we'll curbed with faced or arti-
fical stone. At present the natives
have nothing planted but beans and
sweet potatoes, besides cucumber
which grows from one to three feet
long.
Rice is not extensively cultivated
here, though Judging from the
amount shipped in by rail and boat,
farther back must be a great rice
country.
No hay can be made here, as it
rains SO much and the ground is
always so damp that it never cures.
Grass and rice is fed to stock that
cannot be turned out to Craze. The
pasture land seems to be too nu-
tritious for other than native
stock. I was informed by an
Englishman, who brought herd
of mich COWS over from Australia,
that upon their being turned upon
the pasture here that they gave
from six to nine gallons at milk

beet sugar bounty an ordinary or
special expense?
4th. This bounty business is a
direct violation of article four, sec
ton Ii, State constitution, against
special legislation. This section
says plainly and without equivoca-
ton, that, "the legislature shall
pass no local or special law, grant
ing to any corporation, association
or individual any special or exclu-
sive privilege, immunity or fran
chise whatever, or authorize public
taxation for a private purpose.
Is not that explicit? Now, is it
not special law that benefits one
industry only, at the expense of
all the others in the State? Is it
not special and exclusive privi-
lege to receive a bounty forced from
the rest of the taxpayers of the
State? And has not the legislature
authorized public taxation for a pri
vate purpose, when it taxes the
general public for beet sugar cor
poration?
Mr.. Editor, you see that this is
not a partisan question, for this
beet sugar bounty is but the thin
edge of the wedge of a steal through
bounties, for there is already a
clamor for bounty on iron, and one
is as legitimate as the other. Now,
if the legislature can appropriate
$4,000 beet sugar bounty, why not
100000 or $4,000, 1000. Does THE
GAZETTE expect to get bounty for
printing newspapers, or will the
farmers get bounty for raising
wheat or stock or the merchants for
selling goods? Then, where is the
right or justice of any bounties?
It is an evident steal and should be
choked at once. This bounty law
was engineered and lobbied through
the legislature by ex-senator Kellar,
near the close of the previous ses-
sion of the legislature, in which he
was senator. [ am told that he
is now member of the beet sugar
corporation and one of the recipients
of the bounty, more profitable
place apparently, than being sena-
tor. I hope THE GAZETTE will help
the kick, and kick hard, for the
time to kill weeds is when they are
small and this bounty business will
be worse than Russian or Canadian
thistle unless stamped out at once.
Our State and local taxes already
amount to about $50 per average
family, but if we 60 into the bounty
business there will be no end to
them. JAMES ARNOLD,
Vesta. Mimi

growing out of the recent war. No
one was disappointed. Mr.. Davis
reviewed the situation fully and
dwelt particularly upon the DISPOSE
ton of the Philippine Islands.
When the peace commissioners
sailed for Paris there was wide
diversity OF opinion as to what the
United States should claim in the
Orient. Some preferred simply a
coaling station, others the island Of
Luzon, and perhaps one or two all
the islands. But when the best
testimony obtainable had been care
fully gone over by the commission
there was a marked unanimity in
favor of taking the entire group.
The conditions were such that this
could not be avoided. Now since
the Philippines were ours by ces-
sion as well as by conquest it was
the duty of the United States to
hold them until the islands are able
to govern themselves. This they
are not able to do at present. So
long as there is one gun pointing at
our boys in blue IN the Philippines
SO long should vigorous policy be
carried on. When complete order is
restored the work of civilization
will progress rapidly. The great
Importance of these islands in our
growing trade with the Orient was
fully discussed. After the Senator
had concluded his eloquent address
the applause continued for several
minutes.
During the past few years senti-
ment has been growing in this State
in favor of electing the railroad. and
warehouse commissioners by the
people instead of having them APP
pointed by the governor. The Re-
publican legislature has listened to
the voice of the people and has pas
sed through both branches a bill
making the commission elective.
The term of Office is made four years
and the commissioners rotate in
Office. The passage Of this bill in
the Senate bad scarcely been antici-
pated but the Republicans of that
body saw their duty and they per-
formed it.
