ON THE WRONG SIDE.
"Ledeer" FaVors Saloons
Too Bad-An EditO-
rial Dodge.

The following was written for
the Mexico Ledger, but declined
publications.
Mr.. EDITOR: In behalf of the
Anti-Saloon people of Mexico |
thank you for the space given me
for my paper on the saloon. This
you were generous enough to do
without any elimination whatever
In this Jared better than ut other
places. You allowed me to say
Just what | wanted to say, and
without editorial comment. Your
silence, however, was ominous.
After sleeping on it and being
twitted, possibly, by "somcbody"R
you decide to put yourself on rec
ord rs in favor of the saloon. |
am very sorry for that, for the
other editor is on the fence, and |
very much fear is going to get
down on the wrong side, and then
the saloons will have both dailies
advocating their cause aud we will
be put to great disadvantage i'll
our fight for temperance and puri-
ty. This, however, is your right;
but submit that it would have
been fairer and more magnani-
nous in you to have given some
of those "unanswerable argu-
ments' for the saloon instead of
forcing your humble correspond
ent into an attitude that he did
not occupy. This was unkind in
you. You could not have done
me greater injustice than to
charge me with assuming to be II
better Christian than my brethren
who differed with me. Nothing
that said justified. that insinua-
ton, and God knows. i have no
such feeling in my heart.
Here was the trouble with you,
my good Presbyterian brother land
here il where the shoe pinches all
around. The, Catholic brother
says all Of us who vote for the sa
loon and authorize its existence,
are worse than the Sabbath-break-
ing saloon itself. ] simply asked
my Christian saloon license friends
how they liked the company the
brother put them ins You, Mr..
Editor, don't seem to like it;
neither do |, and | plead guilty to
the charge in voting for the men
who did this thing. But for one,
God helping me, ! propose to get
ont of such company. Come, now,
and let us meet this question fair
ly, like Christian men, without
lodging. The saloon is an i'm
moral institution, great evil; all
of us admit this; no one denies.
Christ forbids lis to aid, or abet,
or i'll anyway give cOuntenance to
sin and immortality. He does not
allow MS to choose between evils,
or to do evil that good may come.
Joseph's brethren were guilty of
an awful sin in throwing him into
a pit to die, and subsequently tax
ing him out and selling him into
Egyptian bondage. Notwithstand-
ing God brought out of this trans
action good to Joseph, to the jew
ish nation, and to the world, yet
these men were guilty and were
held responsible for their sin.
My duty, as | see it, is plain. |
cannot conceive of Jesus, if He
were upon earth, giving counte-
nance to the saloon, and / dare
not. by vote or otherwise, give my
influence to foster this mother of
iniqnities, You may say the Sc
cret dive aud the whisky drug
stores are worse than the licensed

You are Interested.

Are you going to paint your house
or barn this summer? If so, why not
go and consult with an experienced
painter, who has made paint and paint
ing life study and can tell you all
about what to use to give the best re-
suits. When you buy paint from a
man who is not a painter himself he
can tell you only what the companies
have told him. He does not know any
thing different. He can't tell whether
a paint is mixed with pure linseed oil
or with some of the many other CON-
positions used in the manufacture of
paints, such as cotton-seed oil, ben
zine, China clay, chalk and water.
The painter does know, and you get
the benefit. Remember this when you
are going to paint.

line of the latest patterns in wall pa
per, room mouldings, varnishes,
brushes, dry colors, and window glass,

Foot Lake Dump.

Mr.. Peter Skoglund of Lake Andrew
sends us letter which we are pleased
to insert in this issue. He reviews the
dump question from the point of view
of one of the commissioners who let
the contract. He is entirely wrong if
he wishes to convey the idea that the
opposition of the TRIBUNE to the pro-
ject was due to the location of the
road. Our files are open for inspec-
tion and they will show that it was the
unjust manner in which people were
to be taxed for the road that the
TRIBUNE objected to, and not merely
the location. We may have occasion
to refer to this matter again, so we
will only add the closing sentences of
an editorial on this subject from this
paper published May 26, 1896, vn.:
"The Willmar TRIBUNE gave the
county commissioners due and timely
warming of the danger of meddling
with this road project. If the road
is built it is more than likely that the
county will ultimately pay for it. All
the commissioners are honorable men
and our personal friends and there
fore we give them this friendly point

The wheat market was quite active
last week but the rain put a damper
on it this week. The bulk of the wheat
is however marketed and receipts will
be light from now on.
HAY.
AS predicted hay has taken drop
because the demand has been greatly
diminished. Loose hay brings from
six to seven dollars a ton, and the
tendency is still downwards.
LIVE STOCK.
Good beeves and stockers are in de-
mand and prices are firm; stockers

SMALLPOX is DEAD.
DR.. J. F. Kennedy of the Board Of
Health So States.

DR.. j. +. Kennedy, secretary of the
state hoard of health SAYS that the no,
weather of the past two weeks has adj
minlstered a crushing blow to the small
pox epidemic in the state and would be
instrumental In preventing serious
epidemic next winter Smallpox has
died hard in Iowa, but DIR. Kennedy be-
lieves it is dying at last, and that the
100 degrees in the shude which has made
Iowa languid for the past two weeks is
pushing the good work along.
81 do not think. :" said DIR. Kennedy,
"that there is going to be the smallpox
epidemic in Iowa next winter that was
anticipated. There is good deal in the
theory that when it does not die out
during the summer it is much worse the
next winter, but the number of cases in
the state is already diminishing and the
hot weather is not giving it chance to
spread. l believe Iowa has seen the
worst of its smallpox epidemic, and that
next winter there will be much less of it
than there was this year. The large
number Of persons who have already
had smallpox is one Of my reasons for
thinking so. This, together with the
fact that the chance of new cases devel.
oping during the summer is small, makes
me think that Iowa is not going to have
much smallpox next winter,".
