Systematic Saving
Versus Luck

"Great oaks from little acorns grow"
Apply it to fortunes. Ninety-nine
out of hundred successful fortunes
or business adventures have grown
from small beginnings. Systematic,
faithful application is hundred times
surer than trusting to luck.

for this city by your administration, and
we who have fought with you and for
you to accomplish these great results
would do violence to our consciences II
we did not express in some tangible, en-

affection we cherish for you. We have
obtained this little gift (unwrapping the

Mr.. Mayor, with the assurance of our

some poetry that might have been writ

passed the cup to the Mayor while the

CrOOkstOn Hemp Plant.

A large crew of carpenters was
yesterday set to work on the hemp
plant in the Fifth ward. and work
will be rushed from DOW on in order
to get the establishment in proper
condition for the beginning of the
spring grind of tow. The hemp
upon the fields at the big farm has
decayed in very satisfactory man
ner during the winter and is in
excellent condition for working over
into tow as soon as the snow goes
off sufficiently to allow of it's being
gathered up. The factory will
doubtless be started on its first run
about the Goth of the month or per-
haps a little later. -Crookston

A Western ENTERPRISE.

One thingmore than anything else
that impresses the spirit of west
ern energy and push is. the con-
struction of the Lewis and Clark
Centennial Exposition to be held at
Portland, Oregon, beginning June
1st, and continuing until October Is,
1905. With more than three months
intervening before the opening of
the exposition, all of the main build
ings are practically ready for the
installation Of exhibits, typifying
the manner in which western peo-
pie carry out any proposition pre-
sented to them. We doubt if there
has been an exposition in the United
States that can show record such
as the Lewis and Clark exposition
has made. The visitor to the expo
sition can be assured that when it
opens on June first, he will find it
complete in every detail and it
should be a source Of great gratif-
cation to every resident of the
northwest that such is the case.

FOR H0MESTEADERS,
Steenerson's Homestead Commu.
tation Bill Passed
by Congress.

Congressman Steenerson has sue
ceeded in passing his homestead
Communication bill through both
branches of congress. The bill
provides for the communication of
homesteads in the Red Lake and
Chippewa reservations at the end of
fourteen months residence instead
OF fve:years residence, as required
by the present law. To require
settlers to live five years on the
land andIthen pay for it at $1.25 per
acre is not much of a tree home
stead. ," Mr.. Steenerson's law ex-
tends the communication privilege to
those homesteaders who made their
first filing on or since May 1900.
The free homestead law did not give
the' communication privilege to the
lands opened in above mentioned
reservations. Many settlers will be
benefited by this law and in secur
ing it's passage Mr.. Steenerson has
not only: scored a personal triumph,
but has also demonstrated that he
has the interests of his constituents
at heart.

Blind Pig Cases.

William Mckinley, Christian
Rogne and Thomas Rogne, all of the
town of Holt, were brought to War
ren by Sheriff Forsberg on Thurs
day last week charged with selling
Intoxicating liquor illegally. The
sheriff also brought along formid-
able array of bottles containing the
stuff, which upon being unpacked
made the county attorneys Office
look like dispensary. A number
OF witnesses pro and con also ac-
companied the prisoners. Prelim-
mary hearing was called Thursday
and adjourned until the following
day, the prisoners in the meantime
being remanded to Jail until bonds
would be furnished. One of the
men, William Mckinley, objected
strenuously to being placed in jail,
the result, perhaps, of imbibing too
freely of his own medicines, and
began to knock things in there in
great shape, and breaking windows,
so that next day he was fined 500
and cost for his unruly conduct.
At the hearing on Friday all cases
were continued until March Is, in
order to allow both sides to prepare
their cases and get evidence.
County Attorney Brown is de-
termined to have the illegal sale of
liquor in the county stopped, and
will do all in his power to have the
offenders punished to the full ex-
tent of the law. In these cases the
sale Of liquor was done under the
disguise of patent medicines, la
belled DR.. So. & Sos Stomach Bit
ters, Strengthening Cordials, Life
Elixir and various other names.
Mr.. Brown wants it distinctly un-
derstood that all violations of the
liquor laws by such subterfuges
must cease, or prosecutions will be
sure to follow. Many of the coun-
try stores have been innocent sellers
of the Intoxicating stuff in the past,
but they are now warned to desist.

GONE TO HIS REWARD
Hon. Elijah Easton, of Owatonna,
Passes Away Full of Years
and hOn0rs.

Hon. Elijah Easton, father of Mr..
J. P. Easton, in this city, died al
Owatonna, Minn., on Monday Feb.
II, 1905, at the ripe old age of nearly
ninety years.
Many people in Warren will re-
member the venerable looking old
gentleman from the annual visits he
used to make to his son until
few years ago, when increased
feebleness compelled him to give up
the practice. With his tall, erect
form, stately bearing, long white
hair and whiskers, and his kind and
benevolent face, he was, indeed, a
striking parsonage that reminded
one of the patriarchs of old. Dur
ing the past year he had posed as a
model before the art class at Pills.
bury Academy.
He was a remarkable man, type
OF the sturdy pioneer, and to trace
his long and eventful life is to trace
the course of empire in the United
States in it's progress from east to
west. He was born May 19, 1915 in
town of Alton, Chenango county,
New York, of parents whose an
cestors came to Massachusetts
shortly after the landing Of the Pill
grims. He was educated in the
common schools of his native town,
and by self study he added large
stores of knowledge to the posses
sions of his active mind. In 1887
he went west to Potter county,
Pennsylvania, and engaged in teach
ing and farming. On Feb. %, 1889
he was married to Mrs. Jerusha E.
Nichols. In 1912 he moved to Wis
consin, settling on. government
land, working with his character
istic energy to build himself home
in the wilderness, and following the
profession of teaching during the
winter months. In l849 he was
nominated by the Free Sellers for
the legislature, and, contrary to ex-
pectations, was elected and took an
active part in shaping Legislation in
those strenuous days of anti-slavery
agitation. In 1858 Mr.. Easton was
reelected for second term, this

Town Elections,

Township elections will soon be
here, and inasmuch as the law of
l9O3 providing for extending terms
OF township supervisors in office, is
SO ambiguous in it's terms with
reference to the chairman of the
board, the attorney general has
taken hand in the matter and de-
cldes that the chairman will serve
simply for the term to which he was
elected, whether it be one, two or
three years. The letter also points
out that hereafter, except in years
when there is vacancy; no chair
man need be elected. The letter
says:
The statute extended the Office of
supervisor from a one-year to a
three-year term and provided that
at the election Of 1904one supervisor
should be elected for one year, one
for two years and one for three
years, and that thereafter each
supervisor should serve for three
years. It also provides that one of
those elected should be designated
chairman
The chairman chosen at the last
election would hold the chairman
ship for the length of time for which
ne was elected, which would be one,
two or three years, according to the
designation of the length of his
term on the ballot. Hereafter the
chairman will serve as such for
three years, and: no "chairman"
need be designated on the ballot,
except in years when there is a va
cancy to that office.
By following this ruling, town.
ships will find no difficulty at the
annual elections this month"; -

time by the young Republican


New York for California to engage
in the search for gold. He returned
in 1862, without having found any
OF the precious metal. In 1863 he
went there again overland, return
ing to Wisconsin in 1865 with a
great deal of experience but no gold.
Then in the spring OF 1866 he moved
to Minnesota, locating on a farm in
HAVANA township, Steele county,
and for the third time in his life
commenced building himself a home
IN new country.
In 1868 he was elected to the Min
esota legislature, hispreviousk knowl-
edge of Legislative matters proving
OF great value to him, and he became
one OF the most active members of
the lawmaking body.
An amusing incident happened
one day while he served as tempor-
ary speaker of the house. One
officious member was making a.
number of unnecessary motions
with view of leading the acting
speaker into tangle. A member
close by pulled at his coat tail and
whispered, ''sit down, you are
making a jackass of yourself" The
officious member shouted out ''Mr.
Speaker, the gentleman at nv RIGHT
says that l am a jackass. Mr..
Easton smiled and with great de-
liberation said, UNLESS the chair
hears an objection, that will be
taken as the sense of the house,"
The house shouted it's approval and
the otficious member never heard
the last OF that retort.
Shortly after the adjournment of
the legislature Mr.. Easton was ap-
pointed postmaster of Owatonna,
holding that office six years. In
In 1877 he was elected city assessor,
and held that office by annual re-
election for ten years.
Mr.. Easton's faithful helpmeet.
who had shared his struggles in the
Wilds OF PENNSYLVANIA, Wisconsin.
and Minnesota, died July 81, 1875.
The funeral of Hon. Elijah Easton
was held on Wednesday afternoon
March l, and was attended by all
his children, six in number, and
many grand children, his son J. P.
Easton, of this city and Mrs. H. C.
Stuhr, Of Argyle, and Miss Leora
Easton, grand children, being
among the number.
The Owatonna Journal in speak
ing OF the death of Hon. Elijah Eas-
ton says editorially:
Uncle Elijah Easton is gone.
He has crossed the great divide and
has gone to his reward-gone to
join his wife who preceded him
some thirty years. His stately and
patriarchal form and his pleasant
smiles and Good Mornings'' will
be missed by all our people. He
was living example of the truth
that to be loved one must be lovable.
Everybody loved Uncle Elijah.
Though an old man-nearly 9O-his
heart was young and he enjoyed the
life of the young and likedto mingle
freely with them. He mixed in
their sports, and was never happier
than when surrounded by the
bright and smiling faces of youth.
If every one could grow old with
such a happy disposition as he had,
there would never be any need of
asking that question ''Will you love.
me when I'm old?"
