Aguinaldo, Chief of the FiIipinos.

A current periodical publishes very
interesting biographical sketch of this
somewhat unique character. Right or
wrong, great or Insignificant, this man
has succeeded in making himself the
most talked of man in the world for tie
past few weeks and it is reasonable to
assume that he is man of great power
and much natural ability. The writer
of the article to which we have referred
classes him with the great men of the
century and speaks very highly of him
as man and leader Of men. It is
claimed that lie is the son of Spanish
general and that he started in life as a
house boy for Jesuit priest at Cavite.
This man was kind to him and gave him
an education quite out of proportion with
that received by the mass of the Filipin-
os, only three per cent of wI.on can
read or write. At Is he entered med
ical college as student but soon left
the Islands Tor China on account of trou-
ble with the authorities arising partly
from the fact that he joined the Free
Masons, whicP IS there great crime.
His time in China seems to have been
we'll spent as he learned much about
warfare and history as we'll as acquired
a good knowledge of several languages,
including French and Spanish which he
speaks and writes admirably.
The writer speaks IN the highest term
of this young leader of an oppressed peo-
pie and closes his article by saying that
| che has shown to the world that the Fill
ipino is capable Of that self-control up
on which all good government must be
based.'

G. L. Smith and Robert Crickmore.
Secretary of the State Dairy Association,
were advertised to hold a meeting here
today for the discussion of dairy interests,
but as the Thermometers registed below
80 farmers did not seem to relish the
idea of coming into town and as a result
athe experts on dairying were MAX
ing themselves comfortable near thesfre
at the hotel. Interviewed by the Review
man Mr.. Crickmore stated that the Co.
operative creamery business is rapidly
coming to the front in this state. He
cites as All instance of the advantage Of
diversified farming along that line that
during the year just past the farmers of
Steele county, which consists of only
twelve townships, received over $780,
600, or an average of 100000 for each
township for their creamery products,
) and says that Notwithstanding this in
crease ofinccme from creamery products,
the farmers there are now producing as
much grain and selling as much beef
and pork as they ever did before. This
is made possible from the increase in
productive capacity of the soil On &C
count of the fertilizing benefits received
from it by reason of keeping stock.
Since the advent of the creamery farm
ers have changed. from borrowers of

that one Of the surveying parties took

Mr.. Day said it was impossible to-
know at the present time which lire
would probably be taken. Il will be-
some time before the matter can be de-
termined. The Minneapolis s ST. Louis
IS in no particular hurry to build the
line. The Illinois Central will have an
extension from Fort Dodge. Iowa to
Omaha. It can there make connections
with the Minneapolis &. st. Louis, and
the result will be good short line to
Omaha. OF the roads building to Oma-
ha it is an understood fact that the Illi-
nois Central will be the first to complete
Its work, which will probably be some
time IN the fall. That will give the
Minneapolis s. st. Louis 4 chance to
take It's time, and the indications are
that it will do SO.

exercised not to bruise or break the

the leaves has much to do with the
amount Of sugar contained in them.
Such beets can't be produced on rough,
lumpy soil or by shallow ploughing.
Ground that has been cropped for some
years is better than new land, and culti-
yation should be kept up as long as
there is room to work without breaking

ST. JAMES NOT ALARnED.

ST. James Journal, ,@e.-s- is.:<#' ID.
Madelia Times: We are quite reliably
informed that the Minneapolis & ST.
Louis Co. has made a reasonable promo
sitlon to run their road from New Ulm
to this town. F .,..-. r.
Madelia is making desperate effor,
TO get into the railroad swim. Last
week acommitte of business men of that
town waited on the officials of the NJ
& St. L. road with view of inducing
them to build to Madelia. They were
told that If the town would give the com
pany right of way in and out and termi
nal facilities their proposition would be
considered. The gentlemen came home
somewhat more elated than Madelia's
prospects would warrant, and gave i
out that the road had been promised
them. The local papers said nothing O.

the officials in question will meet som,

prosperous.
Nor is the success Of dairying in the
county mentioned due to any snperiori-
ty in the breed of their cows. They
keep common stock mixed with con-
siderable percentage of short horns,
which insures good prices for steers, as
that breed produces good beef animals
and are also profitable milkers. No diff
fculty is found in raising good calves
with skinned milk.
In the beginning the farmers of Steele
found the same difficulty in creamery
management as that which is experienced
elsewhere to start with, but they
have been educated up to the advantages
of cooperation and now make it a
splendid success. They find that it pays
to keep up flow of milk and keep an
open creamery the year round.
Speaking on the subject of feeding
Mr.. Smith said that there is wide range
of difference in feeding and caring for
oys and that the question today before
farmers is not so much question OF
breeding as one of feeding. It has been
demonstrated time and again that tile
COWS that we already have will pay
handsome annual profits if given proper
care and feed. Investigating this 1 found,
he said, on the one extreme farm er
with a hundred and sixty acres of good
land, plenty of hay and feed, milking
eight COWS and receiving f:om item a
return of only 500 per year. Another
farmer with forty acres, milking seven
COWS, received an income per year of
$420. But it is not to be expected
that many farmers can reach a product
of $4,000 per COW per year as was the
case in this instance, but it is possible
and practicable for any farmer to get a
long ways above $1,000 per COW.

Unbalanced By His chlId's Misfortune.

Two weeks ago there was committed
to the St. Peter state hospital, from ST.
James, young lady, aged 1S years,
whose nanae>was Miss Jennie Stark. Last
Tuesday her father, Wilhelm Stark, came
to st. Peter to visit her, and after leay-
ing the asylum became insane himself,
and on Wednesday was also committed
to the hospital.
Since his daughter first became ill Mr..
Stark had been acting queer, but his
neighbors thought that it was Temporal
ry, and that it was caused by grief over
his daughters misfortune. Tuesday he
expressed a wish to see her, and in COM
pany with another daughter and three
of his neighbor's children came to this
city. His actions until the conclusion
of lis visit to the hospital we're entirely
rational, but on the way down town
signs of violent insanity were noticed bv
bis companions, and finally ended in his
jumping through. the rear window of the
bus. He cut his hands quite badly, and
fell heavily to the ground but quickly
regained his feet, and ran the remainder
of the distance to town. Shortly after
he was located by the police and locked
up for safe keeping in the county jail.
Wednesday evening Probate judge
Uhlhorn, County Attorney Coffmann.
and Sheriff Forsythe came up from Sc.
James, and after an examination the
probate judge ordered the unfortunate
man committed to the asylum.

owns 200 acres of land near ST. James.
He has resided there for q years and has
always been regarded as model citizen.

When VIII They Roast Us2

That such dense ignorance as that dis
played in the following paragraph from
the Albert Lea Tribune should exist in
a Minnesota newspaper office seems al
most incredible:
E The travelling library scheme seems
about to make its appearance in the leg
lslature again, and some nimble-
ladies from Wisconsin made pilgrim
age to st. Paul and, apparently without
any great RELUCTANCE, submitted to an
interview. These ladies have jobs in the
travelling system in our sister state and
they seem anxious to provide few Jobs
IN Minnesota for some of their sisters.
lt seems thai when books and ms aeazines
are as cheap as now, that libraries, ex--
cept forsworks OF reference, would not
have veiy large patronage" .:.... -.
Comment on such an absolutely stupid
position would seem unnecessary except
for the slur upon the ladies. The travel
ing library plan is one of the few in
which there are no 's'jobs"; and for which
there has been more self-denying and
public-spirited work done than is gener-
ally understood. If the Tribune repre-
sents any large proportion of the public
opinion of Albert Lea, it is not surpris,
ing that the place is struggling along
with small library, while Rochester
Owatonna and other southern Minnesota
towns are erecting handsome library
buildings. This is an era of libraries
We would advise the Albert Lea Tribune
to get into line with the times. Mime

Mankato Review:
Another force of five surveyors ar
rived over the Chicago 6 Northwestern
road last night and went to work on
the Mankato s. New Ulm Line. Tive
forces are now at work in Judson, and
N. B. Haynes went there this morning.
The work of cross sectioning has not
yet begun, but other lines are being rap
idly run, no matter how cold the wealth
er is.
Land Commissioner Cleveland has
much work yet to do along the1right of
way. He will strike into the timber
tracks this week, with Ex Sheriff Bowen.
The Mankato-New Ulm Railroad Com
pany has decided to locate depot in
the town of Cambria and has secured a
ninety days option on the farm owned
by William Edwards. The farm con-
sists of 180 acres and the consideration
If 81 900. The intention of the railroad
company is to establish townsite at
that place and as the depot will no: oc-
cupy the entire 1s0 acres, the farm will
he cut up into town lots.
1t is said that Mr.. Williams is now
not satisfied with his bargain, he being
of the opinion that the farm is worth
more than $4,000, especially i view of
the fact that it is to be sliceu I'D into
lots and these latter to be sold at pret.
ty good price. Mr.. Williams is seeking
legal advice in the hope that he may be
able to get himself out OF the deal ent-
cred into. A law suit may be the result.

Commissioner's Idea Of the Issue In the
P~hiliupjneA

ITHACA, n. y. Aug. 23.-Commis-
sioner Jacob q. Schurman has reached
Ithaca. Since leaving Manila he has,
he says. steadily refused to discuss
Philippine affairs although he has been
besieged by reporters everywhere. How
ever, he now makes the following state
ment for the Associated Press:
The United States, having assumed
sovereignty over the Philippine islands
by virtue Of a treaty Of peace with
Spain, the chief executive of the repub-
lie is engaged in establishing that SOY
ereignty. The issue today is not a COM
mercial one, although the natural re-
sources of the Philippine islands are Of
great value and want only American
capital for their development. Nor is
the question one Of political e~xpedience
or party principles. although in its col
lateral branch there may be aspects
upon which political parties may prop.
erly divide, but the question today i:
neither one of commercial advantage
MOI Of partisan politics. 1t is a purely
moral question. The vital issue is thu
honor Of the nation, the protection o
loyal Filipinos and the fulfllment 0
our obligations to the nations Of tn

Civil War in Cape Colony Predicted If
Hostilities Begin.
CAPE Town, Aug. 23.-Sunday was
observed throughout the Orange Free
State and Cape Colony with humilia-
ton, prayer and sermons advocating a
peaceful solution Of the crisis. Mr..
Smyttler, a leading Dutch Reform
preacher here, held forth on the close
ties uniting the Cape Dutch to those Of
the Transvaal, which, he added, were
members Of the great Afrikander fam
lily. If war was declared, he said, Great
Britain would commit a heinous crime
before God and man, resulting in civil
war in Cape Colony.
There was evidence Of growing un-
easiness at johannesburg. Great crowds
gather at the railway stations, express.
ing disapproval at the departures tor
Cape Colony and Durham, Natal.
According to Afrikander reports the
Transvaal's reply is a counter proposal
Of a five years retrospective franchise
in the election of a president and on
increased representation. 1t is said that
the suggestion IS made to submit all
other differences to arbitration.
