STAY on the FARM,

We were down in Goodhue county
q few days ago and spent a little while
in driving among the farms of the
same not far from Kenyon. On one
side of Kenyon is a settlement of stur-
dy Germans. This means that there
were good barns and we'll titled farms,
and a good many fences. On the
other side was Norwegian settlement
which means that there was an indus
trious and frugal people with families
growing up into good citizens. The
dwellings furnished evidence of pros
perity. They were costly slowed
away within pretty groves, and nearly
all OF them were brightly painted. It
was pleasant to look upon them, but
they told US something about them
that called for regret. It was this.
They said that some of these farms
were about to be rented because the
young men whom they had nurtured
were leaving them for other pursuits.
We asked why they were leaving
them. They said because they thought
they would make money easier in
other lines and also quicker. Such
hopes are delusive and that they are,
young men cannot kno too soon. It
may be true and Is true, that some
young men make more money in other
pursuits. A limited number Of young
men who leave the farm become rich,
but 9 larger number fail to do So.
For every one who makes rich there
are ten who fail. They 60 down to
secluSion. They are sucked into the

The election shows plainly that the
battle ground between the old parties
has shifted from the central and west
ern states to the east. The old posi-
ton has been restored, with the west
solidly republican and the south solid
~ democratic. Thus New York again
becomes the pivotal state, and both
the old parties will endeavor to so ar
range their platforms as to carry that
state. This means the complete elimi-
nation of Organism from the demo.
cratic creed, and it may also cause
the elimination of Rooseveltism from
the republican creed If the president
should show that he is in earnest in
advocating trust regulation. Under
such circumstances there ought to be
room for 4 progressive party, radical
enough to propose effective means OF
checking monopolies and conserva-
tive enough not to attempt the impos-
sible task of abolishing all private
ownership Of property.

A number of fnauciers are giving
warning that the present prosperity is
liable soon to come to an end. How
can that be when tho republican party,
the creator of prosperity, has won
such great victory? Can it be that
the financiers believe that prosperity
springs from natural causes and that
when the increased demand for goods
following the worldwide depression of
business in the early nineties has been
satisfied there must come reaction?
That is good common sense, of course
but it is not good republican doctrine.

Old party papers are industriously
circulating the report that the peoples
party did not receive enough votes in
the state to maintain it's legal stand
ing. This is false. While we have
not received the official returns from
more than fifty counties, the number
of votes received by the state ticket in
them will more than suffice to main
tain the rights of the organization.
While the vote was smaller than
had been expected, the object of main
tanning the legal status of the party
was accomplished.

The constitutional amendments ap-
pear to have been defeated, not be-
cause so many people voted against
them but because SO many neglected
to vote. Under the provision that re-
quires majority of all the votes cast
at an election it seems to be impossible
to get any amendment passed because
the ignorant vote is always counted
against it. There is some talk of a
constitutional convention as the only
way Of remedying this defect.

Tho keeloy Institute,


Frank B. Forman, member of the
firm of Forman, Ford & Co., of Min
neapolis, writes the editor regarding
the Kelley institute of that city. We
give a portion of his letter for what it
may be worth to its readers:
"The past year was a record break
er as to the number of permanent
cures effected in our Institute and we
write to you again to solicit your CO.
operation in the good work of re-
claiming men from the horrible conse-
quences of drunkenness or drug using.
"The only genuine Kelley Institute
in Minnesota was opened eleven years
ago in this city, and the attendance
has increased every year. Thousands
of our best professional and business
men, farmers, mechanics etc. have
been cured and remain so. The RENE
dies build up the whole system with
out sickness or any disagreeable
feature. It is like living four weeks
in a good hotel.
GAIL Intoxicating liquors contain
alcohol which if taken daily or peri
odically creates diseased condition
of the nerve cells of the brain. Most
of it leaves the system through the
kidneys, the balance passes into the
blood, thence to the brain, (creating 8
craving for more) where it does the
mischief. The heavy drinker is
therefore diseased man and REQ uires
scientific treatment, more than mora
suasion to meet his case successfully
One should not condemn but pity him
A few years ago heavy drinking was
considered vicious habit no one
thought it disease. It is no longer
the fad Business houses an6
large corporations will not employ
drinking man.
eff you have any friends who wisl
to stop drinking and cannot, advis,
them to come here for treatment. I
is sure cure and ninety out of ever,
hundred keep their cure permanently
the other ten 60 back to drink becaus,
they prefer that kind of life. We cal
cure all but can't give them brains. ,

SHORTAGE IN NORTHWEST.
Shippers Much Troubled by the
Freight Car Famine

Minneap polls, Nov 1.-THE car short
age which is customary in the north
west during the crop movement, but
which is much more than usually no.
ticeable this year is causing consider
able embarrassment to shippers of the
three cities of Minnesota, particularly
in the Twin Cities.
In Minneapolis large quantities of
flour and lumber, as well as all other
classes of merchandise, are awaiting
shipment, and it seems almost impos-
sible to get the cars needed for handling
absolutely necessary traffic.
The causes of the famine are not far
to seek. The wheat crop is now on the
move, and this, added to the tremend-
ously heavy movement Of merchandise
that has charac terized the autumn
months, would be sufficient to account
for the distress of the railway compan-
les. But on top of all their other troub-
les the railways are called on to fur
nish n Unprecedented number of cars
for coal hauling, great train loads of
coal being on the move every day from
the Illinois mines to the northwest
Coal is now being hauled in every
sort of car that will hold it. Trains of
box cars are being used for this pur-
pose, in addition to all the coal cars in
the service
There are reports of more or less
serious damage to perishable merchan-
disc along the lines of road, in some
ing frozen in the sack while awaiting
shipment All Derishable goods are, of
course, being hauled as fast as possible,
but it has been found exceedingly diff
cult to keep pace with the demand for
cars on the part of those handling
vegetables.
The Great Northern Railway company
this year put on 1000 new freight cars,
al that could be delivered in time for
the fall traffic, and though this addi-
ton has relieved the strain on that
system to some extent. there is still
much trouble in taking care of the
freight. It is probable that more than
1000 of the largest sized freight cars will
be put on next season.
The Northern Pacific, the 500 the Min
neapolis & St Louis and the Milwaukee,
as well as the Omaha. have made heavy
addition to their rolling stock for handling
freight. but. as a wel-known freight Off
ctal says, there never was in the history
of the country so tremendous a move
ment of freight as has occurred this fall
The railways would have had their hands
full to deal with such conditions as pre-
vailed without the coal strike and now
the demand for coal cars throws the
roads clear out of their calculations.

WOMEN WERE STUBBORN.
Refused to Remove Hats in Theater
and Were Arrested

Rome, Nov. 12.-After receiving various
petitions to stop women from wearing
hats in the theaters, the Project of Verona
issued an order to that effect. which the
women, by silent consent, essayed TO dis
regard.
The male portion of the audience took
no notice of the affront until the per-
formanee was well under way, when sud
denly cries of hats off, were heard all
over the house. Most ef the women got
up and defied the npeng whereupon the
latter set. up an awful rumpus by whis-
Ting, hooting and verbal demonstrations.
Finally a hundred soldiers marched in
under command of the Project and ar
rested all bonnet-wearing ladies. 1hey
were escorted to their homes after the
Project had made a speech to them in
the lobby. saying this would happen to
them every time they defied his authority
and decent regard for the convenience Of
people sitting behind.

other lines of candy used to fill children's
stockings at Christmas are affected bv
this advance, but the finer grades of
chocolate creams and other high-priced
