displays made by the United
States in every department. And well
they may, for there is no other foreign
nation represented inside the gates
that has prepared such an elaborate
exhibit as America.
There is probably as much or more
interest taken in the agricultural zex-
hibits from America as the exhibits
in other departments of the fair. This
interest is shown by every class of
visitor unless one excerpts the society
people of Paris. AS yet there has been
but small attendance of the peasant
classes from the nations of Europe,

the grounds have turned to the Amer

ined it with care. To these people
America is still the land of plenty,

HOW IT WORKS.
The Gold Standard and the New Pres
ilent Of tho .sNatiOnal Sound
i Money League"

John X. Cowen, of Baltimore, has
been elected president of the so-called
'sNational Sound Money league" of
the United States. Mr.. Cowen is thus
the president of the great organiza-
ton that works with the republican
party to eternally fasten the gold
standard upon the people of the Unit
ed States, and unalterably opposes
the free coinage of silver. The paper
called Sound Money, the organ of the
Sound Money league, in noticing Mr..
Governs election, says: HE grad
uated from Princeton in 1872, and be-
came connected with the Baltimore &
Ohio railway in the law department.,
and he, in 1876, became chief counsel,
which position he held for 20 years.
and when it fell into financial diff
culties he was appointed receiver y
This is an elegant record for the
president of the Sound Money league.
It will be seen that Mr.. Cowen be-
came connected with the B. & o. in
1872. The demonetization of silver
occurred in 1878; and from that date
the great B. & o. Railway company,
under the guidance of head counsel
Cowen. began to shrink and dwindle
until it fell into the hands of Re-
ceiver John K. Cowen, who subse-
quently was elected president of the
company and is now elected president
of the Sound Money league. One of the
greatest financial organizations the
world has ever known, built up by the
industry of Mr.. Garrett, under bi.
metallic system of money and by
legitimate means, went into the hands
of the bondholders in about 20 years
under gold standard system and
under the direction of the head coun-
sci, who is now chosen president OF
the Sound Money league. Words are
inadequate to do the subject justice.

TREES AND THEIR PRODUCTS.

Pine and hemlock stumps and old
logs that were supposed to have be-
come worthless years ago are being
gathered in northern Michigan to be
manufactured into lath.
Ontario's government has completed
arrangements for the formation of a
forest reserve of almost 5000 square
miles in extent embracing the district
in which Lakes Tamagami and Lady
Evelyn are situated. The bulk of the
reserve is virgin forest. with the finest
white pine in Canada upon it.
1t is estimated. that about 52.000,0 900
feet of logs will be put in on the Indian
reservation in the northern part Of
Wisconsin during the winter. A lum-
ber company is putting in about &c, ,OOO,-
900 feet on the Bad River reservation,
says Forestry. About 100000 feet
will be put in on the Flambeau reserva-
tion. and about 10,00O.00O feet on the
Red Cliff reservation. -ts+S ~
Over 1900 trees have been planted in
New York city during the past year by

ducers of fine fruits and grains. III
this way the department was assured
of the very best specimens that could
be produced, and in many instances
the fruits were grown with the spe-
cial idea in view Of having them ex-
hibited at Paris. The agricultural de-
partment has had charge of the in
stallation of 1,400 collective exhibits
at Paris. These goods have been fur
nished by the various agricultural
men throughout the country, and
have been arranged in the various
buildings as our commissioners
thought best. Commissioner Peck al
lotted space to 400 Individual exhibit
ors, who shipped and installed at
their own expense displays of fine ag-
ricultural products and various types
of farming implements.
The exhibit in charge of the govern
ment officials is very extensive and in
cludes wheat and corn in all stages
of growth, as we'll as large quantities
of the ripened grain. samples of. which
are furnished for personals inspection.
There is also comprehensive exhibit
of all varieties of vegetable food prod
ucts. including rye. barley, rice, mill
let, beans. peas, beets.: The dairy in
terests are also fully represented and
there are samples of American cheese,
butter and preserved milk. The ined.
ible agricultural products include cot.
ton, flax, hemp, fats, oils, etc.

Willmar tribune., 1900-06-06

It is expected that this exposition will
prove of inestimable value to the
farming interests of America, because
of the demand that our exhibits will
produce for American-grownp products.
With this idea in view everything pos
sible has been done to show the ex-
cellence of American wheat, corn. rye
and other cereal products, while equal
attention has been given@to display
ing the best of our apples, pears and
other fruits. It is believed that the
Paris exposition presents a splendid
opportunity to makef all Europe well
acquainted with the possibilities of
this country as a grain and fruit pro-
ducer. The agricultural department
has gone into: the present exhibition
with the sole idea of helping the farm
ing and export interests, and it is be.
lieved that as result of this exhi-
bition a large foreign demand will
be created for many of our goods
which are now Kept entirely at home.
Commissioner General Peck assured
me that the preliminary work of Sc
lecting specimens for Paris was be-
gun nearly a year ago. The depart
ment designated certain farmers in
various parts Of the country to fur
nish samples for Paris. These men
were selected on account OF their rep
utations as expert growers and pro.

The Main Issue.

There will be other issues, and very
vital ones, involved in the campaign
of 1900, but the battle royal that will
be waged in every state of this union
will be the same that it was in 1896
the battle # the standards. You
fellows seem to flatter yourselves that
that issue was settled forever in your
favor in the election of 1896, but you
forget that no question submitted to
the ballot is ever settled among the
American people until it is settled
right. The so-called decision in your
favor was not fairly won, and so sure
as thereis God of justice who reigns
in Heaven and rules in the affairs of
men on earth, that decision will one
day be reversed by an overwhelming
majority of the American people,

ing to the Unnecessary
Stamp Tax.

The stamp taxes, which were i'm

revenue, and which were to be dis
continued at the conclusion of our

to roll needless money surplus into
the treasury at the rate of $6,00O:00C
a month.
Secretary Gage, who is consistently
wrong on every money proposition:
contended that the surplus would not
amount to more than $40 100000 in
the year. The figures since given out
by the treasury department show
that it will amount to $SO.O0O, ,0GO

Will they not put forth greater efforts
as we are displaying at this great ex-
position is possible?
OF all our agricultural exhibits none
is proving more popular than the
corn kitchen. It is located on the
third floor of the agricultural build
ing, and is in charge of one of the
most expert cooks that could be found.
Here is reproduction of an Ameri-
can New England kitchen, all sorts of
foods made from corn are prepared
and served free. Corn cakes, mullins,
puddings and a host of other goods
made from this grain, are cooked and
baked, the idea being to show the
many attractive dishes that can be
made from corn.
In appearance this corn kitchen is
a building within itself, and as I have
looked at it I thought how well it
would have appeared on the outside
of the dig building in which it is stu
ated, but it is serving its purpose
Squite@well as it is. When the great
fair is over I should like to know just
how many people have been fed at
this kitchen, how many bushels of
corn have been consumed, for as yet
no one has been turned away without
some of the dainty morsels prepared
from our American corn, and should
we keep up this record the numbers
fed will run well into the millions be-
fore the fair is over. ..... -. ~..
! Aside from the impression. onrs ag-
ricultural exhibits are ma..lng on the
few of the peasant classes who have
visited the exposition. our agricultural
products are attracting attention from
the importers of the old world These
men who buy for Europe are investi-
eating carefully our agricultural re-
sources and comparing our products
with those of other selling nations,
much to our advantage, believe, and
it is to be expected that our exhibits
will be the means of increasing our
exports Of agricultural products.
The Parisians are above all things
judges of wine and fashions, and if
they approve of our vineyard prod
ucts we should feel highly gratided
at the success we have achieved. s. This
exhibit is the feature Of the govern:
ment agricultural exhibit, and into it
certain people are invited for the pur-
pose Of sampling the products Of our
wine presses. Great discretion is ex-
ercised il selecting visitors to sample
these wines, and only such as are apt
to prove importers and buyers Of the
beverages are asked to taste them.
But to 30 back to the more strictly
agricultural interests Of the country.

A young lady in Svendborg went to
concert one evening to meet her Sis
ter. She came to the hall rather early
and began walking back and forth in
front of the hall. Then gentleman
came out and began to talk to her.
They soon agreed that it was cold, and
she consented to go with him into the
building and wait for her sister in a
side room. AS soon as they came into
the room he began to kiss the lady,
and he would not let her leave until
she, driven to desperation, promised to
return the next,evening. Shcwent by
way of the police station, however,
and when she again met the kissing
hero, he had to pay fine of 500 for
his fun.
A young farm laborer imbibed rather

cost $50. In one sense he was lucky
dog, because his body did not receive
the least scratch.
