Lincoln and Mckinley; for the prophet
Of Dedham hath constantly advocated the
free coinage OF 50-cent silver dollars TO
pay off wage earners and thereby cut
wages 90 per centum.
10 Moreover the wiSe spokesman
spake another parable unto the crowd
which had assembled because they
thought il was a dog fight. and therefore
there was great multitude of listeners
TO hear the parable which was on this
wise. thlsly:

around Mckinley; for again the elect
knew him and recognized his mighty

THE IRISH LANGUAGE.

Editor Providence News:
In a recent issue OF a Providence daily
noticed n short dissertation on the
Irlsh or Celtic language. The writer OF
that article must be either antagonistic
to tho Irish race or his Judgment must
be his misguiding star. he having failed
to see the use of resurrecting a dead

dead to the Irish heart although perse-
cuted for centuries.

save him good deal Of false reasoning
on the necessity OF resurrecting the Irish
language. and furthermore give him an
idea OF how Ireand's teachers were hunt

work in the fields in the United States
than in Russia.

COMPLIMENTS MINNESOTA.

The report Of the secretary Of.
agriculture, recently given out
to the public, deals at length
with the subject of farming as
affected by the agricultural
schools and colleges. These
schools are perhaps the most
noteworthy feature Of the coun-
try's progress in farming at the
present time. What they are ac-
complishing in the way Of origin
al Investigation we have some
inkling when we observe the
wonderful change which has
taken place il the methods Of
farming and note the many inno-
yations which are proving Of
great profit in tilling the soil.
In this work Of original re-
search Minnesota has been one
Of the foremost states. The
secretary Of agriculture in his
! report says.
In cooperation with the
State agricultural college of
Minnesota, an investigation
is being conducted by the
division Of statistics to de-
termine the cost of produc-
ton per acre of the principal
crops. Although this work
is not sufficiently complete
to permit Of publication Of
results at the present time,
these data, when properly
tabulated and analysed, will
undou btedly be Of great value
in solving questions of farm
management, and various
n *
other problems that confront
the modern farmer.
This is but one of the many
lines of work undertaken by the
agricultural experimental sta
tons Of Minnesota. The stations
a. g: =, '-sstton and Grand Rapids
given special attention to
conditions and the needs Of
northern Minnesota. Though
they have not been long estab-
lished they have already yielded
large results to this part Of the
a.
state.
The agricultural schools Of the
state are doing great work and
should receive. every encourage
ment.

ton and its relation to the development
of the northwest and incidentally re-
ferred to the merger case, the trade
Of the orient and its effect on the north
west and other kindred subjects. In
honor of It's distinguished guests the
city was profusely decorated. A bar
becue of whole roast oxen with bread,
butter and sweet cider accomplishments
were also a feature of the day.
At the morning session after the
temporary organization was effected
and committee on permanent organi
zation had been appointed, letter
from Senator Hansbrough OF North Da-
kota. on the subject of irrigation was
read and II. c. Plumley presented thu
