Judge Bucks Death.

Death has taken away another land
mark. Judge Daniel Buck was one OF
the early pioneers of this section, and
he contributed his full share to the
upbuilding of not only Blue Earth coun-
", but of the commonwealth itself
Knile not entirely unexpected, his death
was a shock to his many friends and ac-
quaintances, and they feel a keen re-
greet over his loss.
Judge Buck was a gentleman of
honor, whose deeds were performed
along the line of the precept, DO unto
Others as you would wish to be done by y
In his professional work he could not
stoop to small things. His conduct in
public positions was honest and up
right and he could not be swerved from
the beaten path of duty. As citizen
he was clean of character and exerted a
moral and healthy influence in the
community.

Electricity Displacing Steam.

1t is announced that the electrified
ton of another steam railway having

almost as large as the New York Cen
trail. 1t is said on the best of author
ity that the Erie railroad is the road
referred to. 1t has large suburban
business that will have to be protected.
To the east the Long Island railroad
is being electrified and to the north the
New York Central will soon be running
electric trains. The New York Central
will run these trains under a two-min-
ute Roadway and at the rate of seven
ty-fve miles an hour. The result con-
fidently expected is the development of
an enormous suburban business to the
company. 1t is said that the Erie con-
templates electrifying most of its New

An Undesirable Population.

According to Washington advices
President Roosevelt has had the immi-
grafton question up for consideration.
He has discovered enough to warrant
him in calling the attention of con-
gress to state of things which per-
mits a horde of undesirable people to
enter this country annually. The
president believes that one of the
most serious problems now confronting
the American people is how to deal
with the immigrants Europe is pour
ing upon our shores. During the fiscal
year which ends June 80 next all immi-
grafton records will be broken. In
those twelve months well on toward
a million steerage passengers will
have arrived in the United States,
looking for homes or work. The great
est number arriving in any previous
year was s57,O46, during the twelve
months ended with June, 1903. For
1904 the total was $3.50 and for
1905 it will be between 100000 and
100000. These figures are enough to
cause the thinking citizen to pause and
consider the dire consequences which
are bound to follow if this country is
to be flooded with a great many people
who ad nothing to its moral worth OF
material prosperity. We all welcome the
honest, handwriting men and women
who come to these shores for the purpose
come to these shores for the purpose
of assisting in the development of the
country, but it is apparent that there
is class of people invading the land
who are not wanted here. They are
anarchistic and criminal in their tend
encies; they do not accustom them
selves to our mode of living; they in
fringe upon the rights and domain of
to reduce the wage scale. 1t is this
element which has baneful influence
among the foreign people in the larg-
er cities, and the increase in crime is
due to large extent to this undesir-
able population. They do not possess
the proper qualifications for citizen
ship, and the majority of them care
very little for that blessed privilege.
They care less for the government and
have no respect for the flag which they
would seek as sheltering fold were
they to get into trouble
