Mortified News: IN talking to- 4 i. 4
local grocer recently he told me that he
could not sell to his customers more
than 20 per cent of the butter he took
in from the country. Eighty per cent
was sold to the renovators. This is
not speaking well of the care taken lin
making a large portion Of the butter.
Some of the best butter makers have
private customers and they sell but
little to the grocer. There is room for
improvement in much Of the country
butter. ...'
Chat6eld News Democrat: The
name of Miss Nellie Green appears in
the list of recent graduates of the
Southern Minnesota Normal College
at Austin. Miss Nellie was member
of the Chatfeld High School class ia
1900. One year from that time she re-
ceived her diploma from the Winona
normal. Her many friends congratu-
ulate her upon her thorough equip
ment for work in both lines, teaching,
and stenography and type writing.
She expects to go Immediately to
Minneapolis to take up the latter work
Albert Lea Tribune: 1t is to be re-
gretted that the Mower and Freeborn
county fairs have been set for the
same dates but as arrangements
have progressed so far that there
is no chance for a change to be made
in either place there will be unusual
rivalry as to which fair is the best.
The management in each place will
have an opportunity to show its capac-
ity for work in that line and .weuns''
do not care to get left in the competi-
tion.
Grand Meadow Record: MIR. E. G.
Higbie of this village and Nellie Leslie
of Brownsdale, who were married at
Brownsville Wednesday, are known
here, especially the groom, and they
have the we'll wishes Of the entire com
munity. The bride formerly lived in
Wednesday for Chicago where Mr.. Hig-
bic will study through the summer.
They will return in the fall to Elmore,
this state, where he will take charge of
the schools Of that village.
4 Wykoff Messenger: The Collins
men are greatly in the majority in this
cOunty-at least two to One-and there
is no reason why they should compro-
mise with the Dunn supporters. Does
anyone suppose for moment if Sam
Langum and the few who are support.
ing Bob Dunn with him were in the
majority and had control of the con-
vention that they would split up the
delegates and give half of the places
to Collins supporters for the sake of
showing how generous they could be?
Not on your life!
St. Cloud Journal-Press: The Re-
publicans of Minnesota are forewarned
The best interests Of the party are at
stake. The success of the Dunn Heat
wole-Hill faction means the capture of
the party by the corporations, the re-
pudiation of the policy of President
Roosevelt and Gov. Van SAINT, placing
in power the friend of the lumbermen
who have been robbing the school
children, and electing to the United
States senate two men who will do
the bidding of J. J. Hill. That is
the program. We do not believe
that anywhere near a majority of the
Republicans of the North Star state
approve any such scheme.
Mankato Free Press: A preacher in
small village is not given the oppor-
tunity to reach as many people as the
editor Of weekly paper. The weekly
paper is read by large number who
never attend church, either through a
disinclination to do so, or because cir
cumstances will not permit. The news
paper with high moral tone has a
wonderful influence for good, and there
is no question but that great many
people are led along the right path by
it's utterances. The newspaper that
does not advocate that which is right
will in time demoralize community

Pioneer Press: The trouble seems to
be that in American jurisprudence
there has been constant tendency
toward fossilization. In all other pro.
fessions save that of law there has
been living growth constant sloughing
off of old and adoption of new ideas
In jurisprudence, on the contrary, the
growth, if any, has been largely in the
| accumulation of material in the form
of rules and precedents from which life
and health departed long ago. It has
been rather process Of Justification
before the advance of which the vital
ity of law is disappearing. That this
process may be checked, and justice
freed of it's stony encroachments, is
shown by the experience Of England.
Hutchinson Independent: The
wet spell we have just passed thru
has again brought out the value
of good roads. Where the roads have
