speaks more for the enterprise
of the citizens of community,
nor that makes a. better impres-
sion on the new conner, and IS
more attractive than nice, neat
public buildings, good roads and
nicely kept homes and farms. |
take it that it is generally agreed
that we must have betterment
in our public thoroughfares.
But the question is how best to
obtain them. This is a matter
that may require some legisla-
tive consideration. 1t will not
do to depend upon private con-
tributions either in work or
money to supplement our pres
ent road tax, because all men
will not agree as to the amount
they should contribute, nor when
and how it should be bestowed.
The only just and equitable way
is by taxation, which will reach
and fall on all alike, both resi-
dent and nonresident according
to wealth and ability to pay. It
has been suggested that the
county be bonded.
AS a rule I am opposed to
bonding future generations. But
in this case, as our county is out
of debt, times are getting pros.
porous and our people are out Of
debt, and roads and bridges are
an absolute public necessity, I
would suggest that should l be
chosen by the people of Benton
county to represent them in the
state senate I shall favor bill
authorizing the county court of
Benton county toiissue any sum
of County Road and Bridge
Bonds not to exceed the sum of
$50, 900 to run say ten years, but
to be redeemable earlier at the
pleasure of the county; to draw
interest not to exceed q per cent.
annually. Provided the legal
tax payers of the county shall
vote in favor OF said bonds at a
special election to be ordered by
the county court. The court to
first determine the amount of
bonds necessary to be issued af-
ter thorough consideration; said
bonds to be issued in denomina-
tions of 500 each, and be sold
to the citizens OF Benton county
and to the highest bidder, giving
any citizen a chance to purchase.
The roads to be improved accord
ing to certain specifications and
be let by contract, by the mile,
10 the lowest bidder, and also to
the citizens Of the county, there
by aiding and encouraging home
men and retaining the money at
home.
The commissioners court to
be authorized by the act to levy
a small road tax with other taxes
to be used IN creating a sinking
fund to meet and pay off the
bonds. The contractors of road
work to either enter into bonds,
the same as bridge builders, or
to receive one-half the contract
price at the completion of his
work and the other half six
months later, conditioned that
his work stands the test of six
months use. If not, let them be
repaired by the contractor at his
expense 50 as ITO comply with
contract, then get the remainder
of his money from the county.
This is the outline of my plan
for the betterment of our public
highways, bridges, etc. By this
means the roads and bridges can
be improved, every one benefit
ted will pay for it and no one
miss materially the expense.
There are some other changes
in some of the present laws I re-
gard as being very essential
which I hope to discuss before
the people prior the election.

The local chorus for the May

A comparatively short time remains
to perfect this portion of the orato-

til Festival day. Tuesday and
Wednesday evenings Of next re,
hearsals will occur at the usual
place. A word to those who intend
Joining the chorus, but have de-
Iayed: Next Tuesday is the last
day of grace. After that date no
new members will be taken. To do
so would be an injustice to those
who have practiced 30 faithfully up
to this time, and would materially
weaken the efficiency of the work
of the chorus. A plat has been
made of the armory and it has been
found to have a seating capacity OF
over 14OO. A thorough canvass of
Corvallis will be made this week
and those purchasing tickets will
be given vouchers. After the box
sheet is opened, holders of vouchers
will be entitled to exchange them
for reserved seat tickets.

MINNESOTA NEWS.
Butter Industry.

=
There are at present in Minnesota
about 100000 cows, producing annu-
ally 50,00o,000 pounds Of butter, repre-
senting a value of about $11 900 900.
Eighteen thousand families in Mime
sofa are supported by this industry.
1t yields more than the total barley
and corn crops, double what the pota-
to crop yields, and it gives employ
ment to more men than any industry
of the state.
The factory product alone of butter
and cheese for the year 1900 was S.
100000, which placed the industry
next only to the flour mills and the
lumber mills in point of value of an
nual production. From 1890 to 1900
the increase in the value of the dairy
product of Minnesota was over 800 per
cent, and from 1895 to 1900 the in
crease in the product was 125 per cent.
At the present rate of increase the
next state census will show an in
crease never equaled by any industry
of Minnesota. There is a capital of
$4,000,000 invested in the creameries
of Minnesota, and these creameries
distribute $S,000,000 a year to their
patrons

viii INVESTIGATE,

The state dairy and food depart
ment, it is stated, will take up the in
vestigation of all syrups used in the
favoring of soda water with view to
ascertaining their quality and in what
degree, if any, they are deleterious.
Last year the investigation was I'M
dertaken, but on account of the great
amount of work which heaped upon
the department, was not finished.
Enough interesting data was obtain
ed, however, to arouse the curiosity
of the department officials and prompt
them to make another effort this year.
The department. officers were led to
make the Investigation by the suspi-
cion that many of the pure fruit juic-
es, so-called, were made of glucose
and contained aniline dyes. The col
oring matter drawn from certain
grades of candy, from jams and soda
fountain syrup has been used by the
department to color strands of yarn
the colors having brilliancy and
permanency very pleasing to behold.

Sad Death.

There will be no report entered
against John Donovan, the night
Waterman at the Ryan Annex, st.
Paul.
He failed to ring the call boxes yes
terday morning as he should have
done, and messenger boy was sent
to the building to see if he was sleep
ing, or if the wires were at fault.
The boy pounded and pounded on
the doors, but there was no response,
and it was thought that the faithful
Waterman must have gone back on his
trust and left the building. That
would have meant several black marks
against him.
Poor Donovan! It was not his fault
that the calls did not go in. When
the doors were opened his ifeless
body was found dangling from the
elevator cage at the sixth floor. He
had become caught while at work, and
the life crushed out of him.

At EVeleth.

At o'clock in the morning the city
of Eveleth was aroused by terrific
explosion, followed a few minutes
later by the fire whistle. The Duluth,
Missabe & Northern railway station
was totally destroyed by the explosion
of nitroglycerin placed in holes bored
into the safe.
The burglars evidently used ten
times as much dynamite as was necs-
sary, for the building was completely
destroyed and the safe torn to bits.
Just before the explosion, two men
were seen runnings away from the
building, but no trace of them has
been found so far. The debris caught
fire after the explosion, but was soon
put out by the department..
At 10 o'clock at night the city Jail
was partly destroyed by fire, and one
prisoner was burned to death, being
locked in the Jail, frame building.
He was a Finnish miner, and was in
toxicated, and was only placed in the
