patronizes it. 1t is q mistake to
suppose that these houses can fur
nish the same grade and quality OF
goods cheaper than the local dealers.
There is good reason why they can
not. In tho first place, nearly all
the leading wholesale houses refuse
to.sell their goods to the catalogue
houses, for the obvious reason that
it is not fair treatment to their re-
galar patrons. a..
The result is that most of their
goods are bought Of other retail
merchants who have dead stocks to
dispose of. The catalogue houses
therefore sell goods that the regular
retail merchants will not handle.
That means inferior goods. It.ie
plain to be- seen that the catalogue
house must pay at least the ordi.
nary Wholesale prices for the most
oftheir good, because other retailers
will not dispose of dead stocks for
less.
In cities and country towns most
merchants have clearance sales
from time to time. Instead of the
public getting the benefit of those
sales, the city merchants often dis.
pose of large quantities of shelf
worn or out of date goods to the
catalogue houses, who afterwards
sell them to their customers at q
profit. The catalogue houses are
the scavengers of tho trade. I
The catalogue houses do not buy
the farmers produce. They do not
put a cent Of money in circulation
They are simply parasites. They
pay no taxes. They 90 nothing tx
support the community. CHEAP
goods are not awlays cheap in the
long run. r.
1.-The catalogue houses take money
out Of circulation. If everyo ont
Fpatronized them it would not b.
long, before there would be Ittl'
money in circulation. They arr
Breeders of, hard times. They de-
stroy the local markets. Carried
to its logical conclusion it means g
few large, cities, distributive centerf
and abandoned towns and villages
with the consequent sshrinkage in
farm land values. The man who
patronizes catalogue houses is like
the one who "bit off his nose to
spite his face. He helps to de-
stroy his local market for a little
temporary imaginary saving When
a customer wants credit he must
go to his local merchant.
The mail order houses will not
give it. 1t is a pretty mean man
who will give his money to the
latter and expect to receive credt
from the former.
Probably the smallest specimen
Of the lot is the business man who
receives . the patronage Of his
neighbors' and gives his own to the
catalogue houses. Such men are
no benefit to, q. community. They
are better out of it than in tx.

The newspapers are expected to
fight mail order houses and dis
courage the people from buying of
them; and the merchants in the
country towns are all too prone to
discourage the newspapers by re-
fusing to back them up in the fight
for home interests. If newspaper
takes a foreign advertisement; the
local merchant is apt to have blood
in his eye; if he is asked to advertise
he will tell the newspaper man
that advertising does not pay. In
the meantime the mail order houses
keep up their advertising campaign
the year around and secure a great
deal of business, that of right should
20 to the local merchant. Whose
fault is itg-St. James Plaindealer.

From country newspaper in Mis-

From country newspaper in Mis-
souri, comes the following helpful sug-
gestions on how to prepare a boy for
the penitentiary: "When he does not
want to GO to school let him loaf the
street. When he gets into mischief and
your neighbor reports it to you, curse
your neighbor in the presence of your
boy. When he gets a little larger
and purloins something of value and
you find it out, just laugh at him and
let it go. When he does something
that calls him into the justice court
and he is found guilty, pay the fine,
curse the court, the jury and every
one connected with the matter, and
pity the boy. By adhering to thi.
policy on all occasions, you will, after
few years, have splendid candid ate
for the penitentiary .

Factory Saves Money.

Minnesota farmers will save APP
proximately $1,000 annually in the
purchase of binding Irvine when the
new machinery recently installed in
the Irvine plant at the state prison is
run to it's full capacity, which viii
probably be next year.
The saving this year will approx
mate $275, 900. The state board of con-
troll plans to manufacture appre1i-
mately 100000 pounds, and the
prices fixed by the state are about q
cents lower than the prices to consum-
ers fixed by dealers in binding Irvine.
At the close of the present year the
amount which Minnesota farmers will
have saved through the state Irvine
plant will be nearly 81, 500, 900 and the
profit to the state will be considerably
in excess of 100000 Since the plant
was established in 1891 more than Co.,
100000 pounds of Irvine have been
manufactured.
The state has recently installed new
machinery, which will materially in
crease the output of the plant. The
board of control expects to manufac-
ture from12, 900, 000to IL, 600, 900 pounds
nextyear. Thenewmachinery sinoper-
alton, but the plant will not be run to
its full capacity this year.
One reason why the state is able to
save Minnesota farmers so large
amount this year is because the board
of control purchased the raw material
early, before the prices went up. In
addition to this, the state being a large
purchaser can get the best bargains,
and being a large manufacturer, can
reduce expenses to the minimum.

NewU1mReview
The States Attorney.
Wednesday, May "a, 1905.

If we understand the duties of a
states attorney in criminal cases, it is
his business as an officer OF the court
to contribute as FAR as possible to the
doing of justice and the discovery OF
the truth as to the charges against the
accused. It is, of course, his business
to present the facts tending to show
the guilt of the accused, but as an Off
Ger of justice he is expected to do this
in manner free from any manifesto
ton of great bitterness of feeling
against the accused. Nor is he at
liberty to lay obstacles in the way of
developing the fact of his innocence.
If this is notin brief an approximately
correct statement of the proper atti-
tude of the attorney for the state in
criminal prosecutions, we are not the
only ones who are mistaken in the
matter.
Reference to the subject is suggested
and prompted by the conduct of the
prosecution of DR.. George r. Koch.
We do not wish to indicate any opin-
ion as to the guilt or innocence of the
prisoner. The courts will make an
other attempt to establish the fact one
way or the other. But the extremes
of statement in the arguments of the
states attorneys, their treatment of
witnesses, the character of some of the
evidence introduced, their general con-
duct throughout the trial at Mankato,
exhibits degree of bitterness which
seems to us not to comport with the
proper attitude of officers of the court.
1t is true that such an exhibition of
feeling is not unusual, perhaps it is
not unnatural, but it is no less repre-
hensible. So marked was this exhibit
ton of feeling on the part OF the states
attorney in the recent celebrated Nan
Patterson case that it was made the
subject of very vigorous comment by
the press of New York; and yet we
recall nothing in our reading OF the
reports of that case which suggests
more occasion for criticism than the
general conduct of the states case in
the Koch trial. The matter is of
general interest because it seems to
US to be misconception of the duties
and responsibilities of court officers
and calculated to operate against the
securing of justice. 1t certainly places
the state in an attitude before the pub
lie which does not make for public
confidence in the ability or the dis
position of the courts to do Justice

There Are a Whole Lot of Us.

There Are a Whole Lot of Us.
1t appears from the Princeton Union
that Bob Dunn is anxious to carry the
Koch trial into politics and has caused
to be circulated the following:
DR.. Koch, the New Ulm dentist who
is accused OF committing brutal and
cOWardly murder, seems to be parti-
cularly anxious to have people under-
stand that he was an ardent supporter
OF J Ohm A. johnson for governor last
fall. OF course he was. Men OF the
Koch and Brooks stripe naturally at1i-
LATED with the assassins of character
and mercenary Hessians who were
lighting Bob Dunn. Birds of a feather
will flock together.
And this is the man we were asked
to support for governor. How fortu-
nate the state is that he was defeated
If the electors of John "A. Johnson are
to be classed as assasins of character.
then there are lot of them. and the
writer is proud that he is numbered
among them.
Picture man of the character OF
Bob Dunn, breathing hatred and malice
after nearly year has passed since
his defeat, being in the governors
chair, reckoning the crime of voting
against him as equal to the charge OF
murder.
Mr.. Dunn would find that if he were
to ask for the election of governor a
second time that there are many more
eassassins of character in the state
than there were at the time of the last
campaign. People may be relied upon
to spot an honest man when they see
him and to pick the genuine from the
false,
