taught by the exhibition are to breed

the stock shows are developing busi-

DO FARMERS PAY roo MucA2

A Cerro Gorio farmer complains that
he has no use for the style put on
by Mason City grocers in order to
popularize their business and he objects
TO the prices he must pay for his gro
ceries to cover these unusual expenses,
as we'll as the cost of delivery which
every dealer must include when he
caters to the city trade. 1t is the bur
den OF said farmers argument that he
delivers his own goods, that his credit
is always good, and that he ought to
get his groceries cheaper than the city
customer who demands high toned SER
vice and a special delivery for every
one-quarter pound of tea.
AS latter of fact the farmer as q
class does get his groceries cheaper
than the city resident. for the reason
that the great majority of farmers in
sist upon selling the grocers as much
plies come to. In order to hold the
farmers trade the grocers bid up the
price of produce until the farmers get
for it almost as much as the grocer
does when he delivers 1t in small
amounts all around town. The farmer
also gets an advantage of the better
prices on large amounts which always
prevail In every grocery store.
1t is true that the farmer who has
no use for city style should not pay
the cost. but, ii this style and metro
politan air about the store results in
a greatly increased volume of business,
the proportionate expense to be borne
by every pound OF sugar. or sack of flou.
is thereby reduced Rents are the
same, proprietors the same and clerks
not greatly increased by an increased
business. And the strangest thing
about it is the farmer himself is at
tracted by this very chic" of the store
against which he complains.
1t is common for farmers to COM
plain about the profits of the townsman
who sells him goods and carries him a
whole year no matter how hard times
may be. but in the long run the farmer
seems to come out with full share
of accumulated profits. His bank ac-
count as compared to that of his mer-
chant does not support his tale of OPP

THE SOUTH AND the CANAL.

Nothin sunders old affiliations and
creates new ones like individual inter.
ests. The moral or political sentiment
OF a single person or a section is likely
TO build itself about material interests
Doubtless many northern democra tic
politicians hoped to create politica
capital by criticism OF the canal polio,
of the present administration. but the
south. the heart Of democracy, has re.
pudiated adverse criticism OF the cana
scheme and is content to receive bene-
fits at the hands OF republican ad-
ministration. The solid south supports
the canal and In doing so forgets much
of Its prejudice and rancor against re-
publican men and measures. The
community Of interest between the
south and the west is rapidly disinte-
grating the solid south our father
knew.
The south forsees much OF Immediate
profit and future commercial promi-
hence in the building and completion Of
the canal Its propinquity to the field
OF operation will enable 1t to furnish
supplies for the work and workmen. It
hopes to see the freights of the middle
west and the great northwest received
at gulf ports from Mississippi steamers
and north and south trunk lines which
will carry back half the imports of the
United States. 1t contemplates a mag
nificent growth of its gulf cities as
ports of entry and exit by the diversion
of water shipments from the east and
west coasts to the south and pre-
diets the supremacy OF the south as a
trade center. Much Of this 1t may log
ically expect.
Writing to the Mobile Herald Mr.. C.
f. Caraeristi, an engineer OF repute,
and one thoroughly acquainted with
the conditions discussed, expresses the
hopes and expectation OF the southern
states when he says; the canal will
unite "the people of the south and
southwest with the interests Of the
Pacific slope. Not only will the canal
create emergency of the present
channels OF trade with foreign coun-
tries. in which the Mississippi river will
once more play an important role and
receive careful government attention
and improvement, but there will also
follow great Political change thru

That glistens like silk.

Their joints and bacon always pass

They have not been bred along lines
That lead to dissolution,
And you will find they always have
The best of constitution.
They were never known to run aroun1
And lie in some dirty hollow.
Nor are they apt to die with what
They call hog cholera.
Their appetites are very good,
And they greet you with a grunt
And when you come to market them,
You never nave a runt.

Labor Temple Will Be Built on Main
and Fourth Street.

1t is probable that the proposed
union hall to be built by stock
company will be erected on the
southeast corner of Main and Fourth
street if satisfactory arrangements
can be made. This was decided upon
this week, and the necessary details
looking to the incorporation of the
stock company will be arranged as
quickly as possible. The company
will be incorporated in the sum of
$4,000, and the shares will be sold
at 81, with provision that not more
than 200 shares can be owned by any
one person. The shares are non
assessable and can be purchased
either with cash or taken out in work
on the building. The building, as
previously stated. will be of brick,
and will cost $4,000.
A number of subscription lists are
being circulated among the different
unions of the city, as we'll as all 9th
ers interested in the proposition, and
it is the intention to find out just
how much stock can be sold before
the arrangements for incorporation
are completed.
