'.WORKING MEN MUST GOVERN
Views of a New Political Party Soo1
to Be Launched in Chicago.

Chicago, Sept. ia movement for en-
listing the hosts Of Workingmen through
out the United States into a semi polit1-
cal organization has been launched In
this city, says the Post. A platform said
to embrace the economical and political
ideas of labor leaders and covering the
whole labor situation, has been prepared
and will be presented for approval next
week. to the Chicago federation of la
Dor.
The platform demands the abolition Of
the so-called present machine, the estab-
lishment of government primaries where
votes may be cast ''for nominees as citl-
zens and not as members OF ma
chine and the initiative and referendum.
1t favors the right Of recalling repre-
sentatives who are out OF touch with
voters.
Relief from the trusts is suggested In
the plan for 1.-The passage of an amend
ment to the practice laws Of every state
and of the federal government in which
litigants may bring up, in any suit in
which a corporation is the plaintiff or de-
PENDANT, the question of it's right to its
franchise, whether it has usurped power
not given it under statute and whether 1t
has forfeited Its, powers
This method, it is urged, would be pro-
ductive of more good than the institution
of suits by federal district attorneys.
Vigilance committees In every state and
large city are favored to see that the laws
are irnpartially administered. The eight
| hour day, sanitary conditions, living
wages the repeal of the laws limiting the
| liabilities in personal injury suits, the
supplying of free text books to all chill
| dren in the lower grades of public schools
| and tn eabolition of convict labor in com
| petition with free men are demanded
Limitation on the Injunction powers OF
| Judges is asked and tn popular election OF
federal judges and senators Is suggested
In all civil trials majority verdicts are
desired. The plan favors the government
instead of banks issuing all kinds OF
money, and it is suggested that private
| individuals be driven from banking bust
| ness Laws are demanded restricting the
issue Of capital stock, bonds and securities
| ia any greater extent than the actua
property owned by corporations. Public
ownership of public utilities is desired
and state insurance and provisions for ole
age ar eapproved. Child labor Is decriet
and educational aids and trade unionisn
to keep up wages are approved. In clos
| ing the platform reads: :.',

PRIMARY LAW IN ACTION.
Candidates to Be Nominated In All Coun.
ties Under New Law.

ties Under New Law.
For the first time in the history Of Min
nesota candidate will be nominated in
every one of the counties by popular vote.
1t is the first trial Of the Dunn primary
election law, and tO-morroW'S result will
determine whether the system will be con-
tinued. If the voters turn out generally,
and the machinery works smoothly, it will
be voted a success.
Nominations will be made tomorrow by
all of the parties for congress, district
iudgeships, senators and representatives
addition, the city Of Minneapolis will NOM
mate republican and democratic city tick
cts.
The law is uniform for the entire state.
The polls will be open at a. M, and
close at p. m. Judges and clerks Of
election will be on duty during the entire
time, the same set of officers serving as
for the general election. The voter must
first register, and the registration serves
to place him on the poll books as quail
fled voter at the general election.
After registering the voter must then
ask for the ballot Of his own party, the
party whose candidates he generally sup
ported at the last election, and with which
he intends to affiliate at the coming cleo
ton. If challenged, he must swear to his
party utilization. He Is then given one
ballot, that Of his own party, and retires
to the booth to mark it, as at general
election. In this matter of party affilia-
ton the law differs from the Hennepin
county primary Of 1900, when the voter
was given both ballots and marked the
one of his choice. @8 ... -
The ballot are printed just as the gen
eral election ballots, except that each bal
lot contains the candidates Of one party
who have paid their fee and filed their
affidavits Of candidacy.
After the polls have closed the Judges
count the votes and certify the totals tc
the county auditor. Where more than one
county votes for the same office the
county auditors report to the secretary OF
state. County and state canvassing boards
count the returns, as at the general cleo

est number Of votes, whether majority
or not. are the nominees Of their party
and their names will go on the genera
election ballot. The defeated candidates

WATERING MILK COWS.
Where Eight or Ten Anfma1s Are
Kept Construction Of n Water
System Is Advisable.

We sometimes water our COWS in the
stables, and find it great gain over
turning them out to drink at the
spring. We never allow our mich
COWS to drink out of a brook, as it is
unreas ona BILE to expect cow to do her
best if compelled to gorge herself
with ice cold water. In the fall and
early winter, when we have only few
of our cows calved, we always like to
take the chill off the water they drink
and give it to them in the stable; we
notice. a very marked improvement
over turning them out. Of course,
where there is large herd it would
not pay to water them in the stable
without one had the water right in the
barn. We water twice day, and it is
surprising how much they will drink.
especially if some feed -four is stirred
in it. A COW has no filter in her, and if
the water is impure all the impurities
will go to the milk. Some of our big"
farmers may cry 'egotist" when they
see this, but I am in fair position to
know, as for the last two months I
have weighed every pound of feed our
cows consumed. Also in the stable the
milk of each COW was weighed sepa-
rately and a record kept. From this
we could plainly Sc that the day the
cows were turned out to drink, if let
for any length of time, there was al
ways a shrinkage in the milking. If
the change was noticeable in our
mild December weather, what must
it be when the mercury is lowering
about the cipher!
Where there is a winter dairy Of
eight or ten COWS it would pay to have
a good water system, so as to water
our COWS in the stable in cold weather.
Also induce them to drink as much as
possible, for when we consider that
milk contains over 80 per cent. of wa
ter, it is evident that our cows should
have lots of good, pure water.-D. R..
Nicholson, in Maritime Farmer.
Exports Of Cheese Small.
The quantity of cheese exported
from the United States in 1901
showed a decrease as compared with
like exports in 1870, of over 80 per
cent; the quantity exported from
Canada, on the other hand, showed
the remarkable increase, as compared
with 1870, of over 5000 per cent.
Moreover, the conditions of the ex-
port trade in this product in the
United States in late years show lit
tie indications of improvement, the
exports in 1901 having reached low
err point, excepting those of 1896 and
1899, than at any like period in 80

COMFORT BRINGS CASH,
why Dairymen Should Always Have
Succulent Feed ON Hand to
Help Out the Pasture.

There is a direct connection be-
tween the comfort of the cow and
the cash received by her owner. This
factor of comfort may be made more
important by having combined with
it the additional factor of succulent
feed. This is especially the case
when cows are on pasture, in which
case their digestive systems have
adapted themselves to the succulent
nature of the foods. In case of a
storm lasting for days, or of any
mishap that makes it necessary to
take the animals off the pasture, the
substitution for that pasture grass
of dry hay always causes loss in the
flow of milk and in the production of
butter fat. Every dairyman should
have on hand silage, sugar beets, Or
some other succulent feed to help
out the pasture whenever necessary.
The Importance of this is shown by
an experience at the Arizona exper-
iment station, as told by the direct
or: The nth, 18th and 10th days of
November, 1000, were rainy days.
From the day before to the day aft
err the rains the amount of milk de-
liyered at the creameries fell off ten
per cent. In the same time the milk
from our own herd decreased 81 per
cent, and continued to decrease I'M
til it had reached so per cent. It
then took the COWS a month t" get
back to where they were before the
rain. The week of the storm and that
following, two of the six cows had
sugar beets in addition to their pas
ture During these two weeks the
four cows having pasture alone fell
off 46 per cent. in amount of butter
fat given, while the two having beets
fell off only 20 per cent. Here is
to be noted not only the effect of the
storm, but the effect of feed as we'll;
the COWS having sugar beets during
the storm falling off less than half
as much in their butter fat as did
those on pasture alone.

Scarcely two months had passed
before it came. Herman was sobered
little when he wrote of it, but not
enough to affect his literary style. He
was "superseded" again, he said, and
was Fastening to claim another good,
bracing sermon from his dear cousin
Janet.
Janet read with mingled emotions.
She knew it was not lack of ability

him. He had never felt the need of
working hard, and the lack of disci-
pline was telling in every way. One
part of his letter was really pathetic

it was so true-vlere he compared
himself to a nice little stream of wa
ter that was mostly noise and sparkle.
The Bible las different way OF put
ting it-"Unstable as water, thou shalt

But Janet did not think of that. She
had forgotten for the moment that no
one may ever excel save by his own
effort, and she was reproaching her
self bitterly for his present failure.
She was conscious that he had always
looked to her to supply certain force
unde;slcped in himself. The appeal
ran through the letter she was read

lery, of course, but to her the earnest

HANDY MILK CABINET.
A LITTLE Convenience Which Is Sure
to Pay for Itself Within q
Short Space Of Time.

When milk is kept in cellar there
is much time taken in running up
and down stairs. l have found that
at some seasons cream kept in cell
lar is very difficult to churn, nelth-
er is the butter good when it does
come. So l think milk receptacle
upstairs would be far better. Around
almost any farm will be some good
lumber, or perhaps there might be
some unused outbuilding that will
answer the purpose. Whatever be
the style, shape or size, construct
the cabinet against the house, leav-
ing door at the junction. From the

screened ventilator. The doors at
the base can be raised on the side
whence the wind is blowing. This
method will give the current of air
so necessary to milk. On the in
terror, little to one side of the CEN

fashioned kind. Now on the side
where little standing room was
left, have a shelf for the cream jar,
and also a large one on which to
set the pan in which to strain the
milk. With this arrangement ii one
buys of the milkman, he can come
in sunshine or in the mud and slush
of winter without entering the house,
and deposit the milk in the ready
pans on the shelf. Moreover, it is the
handiest thing in the world for the
inmates of the house. They have ac-
cess to it by the inside door.-L. u.

wrote "raised blister," as Herman
afterward confessed.
"What is q guardian angler" she
inquired, sweetly. 1--WE searched my

poetical, too. Do they teach about

II quite expected that you would
be superseded again, and now that
you have the leisure, am not going
to do anything that will interfere
with your learning how to spell.
This is the last letter you will get
from me till you have mastered the
art. At Christmas, if you wish, will
examine you from the spellcr lent
you, and also from those lists of
words. If you pass the examination
we will resume our correspondence,
and if you don't we will not. l am
quite in earnest. From this judg-
ment there is no appeal.
"Witness my hand! Your cousin,
Janet"
Herman must have known that
when Janet wrote like that there was
no appeal, and he made none, but got
to work.
AS for Janet, she was in the dark
as to the movements of her cousin,
and not little frightened at what
she had done, until she heard that he
had refused a third position. She
took that as a healthy sign. Her
knowledge of him told her that the
next one he accepted he would be
prepared to keep-and he was.
At Christmas time the whole fam

and independence which showed that

No Money in Poor Cows.

The poor farmer sticks to the poor
COW and imagines that he is making
money out of her. Fortunately for
that kind of a COW, the said kind of
farmer has strong imagination-one
that does not have to have facts to build
upon. If the farmer got to demanding
proofs of the value of his poor COW,
il would be the end of the COW. It is a
pity that more farmers are not of a
judicial turn of mind. If about half OF
the COWS of the country were turned
into cow beef it would be better for
the farmers.-Farmers' Review.
