Butter Scoring Completed Yesterday
But Results Are Held.

II. j. Credicott of st. Paul president
of the Minnesota State Butter and
Cheese Makers association, was in Man
llato yesterday, on business connected
with the coming convention. Every
thing points to a splendid meeting.
The entries of butter and cheese have
closed and the scoring was completed
yesterday. The number of entries of
butter were 222 tubs, and that of cheese
IL tubs. The cheese has not yet been
scored d. B. White, of Minneapolis
did the scoring on the butter. The result
of the scoring will not be announced
until the second day of the convention,
but it is limited that there are a great
er number scoring above 95 than last
year. This is not the best time of year
for butter, as cows are often fed upon
frozen feed.
The number of tubs of butter enter
ed for the contest at last years con-
vention at st. Anthony Park was 100,
or nearly 100 less than this year.

over George l.. Otis, the democratic cam
didate, by a plurality little less than
1000 votes.
The sturdy, independent character of
the new governor soon became manifest.
He strongly advocated the very measure
his party had voted down in the con-
vention, the setting apart of 100000
acres of land to pay the repudiated rail
road bond debt of the state. The COVER
nor vetoed bill for distributing the
land among different railroad corpora
tons. He was determined that the land
should be preserved to form a fund for
the ultimate payment of the o.u rail
road debt of the state. In this way he
antagonized a large number of his party
friends. Nevertheless his denomination
took place in the republican state con-
vention of 1871 without opposition, and
his reelection followed by a plurality of
rival.
Soon after retiring from the executive
chair, Governor Austin was called by
President Grant to take the important
position of third auditor of the United
States treasury, where he served under
Secretary Bristow, Morrill, and Sherman,
after which he held a place for about
seven. years in the department of the
interior, and subsequently served the
state of Minnesota as chairman of the
railway commission Later he engaged
in private business at the head of a
financial institution in Minneapolis.
Old residents of st. Paul, who met
Governor Austin when, at the age of
thirty-eight, he came to take charge of
his executive duties, remember him as
man of medium height and slender
build, with black eyes and hair, a thin,
nervous face, full beard and swarthy
complexion. 1t was plain from his ap-
pearance that he was a man of courage
and conviction, an impression that is
fully justified in the light of the history
of his long and useful career of public
service.

the kidneys people that have to get up

MAKING TRAVEL POPULAR.
Chicago Great Western Takes lnde-
pent Stand Regarding Excursions.


The Chicago Great Western railroad
has again taken an independent stand
to give the people living along its line
a Square deal" and will run series
of week end visiting excursions this
winter In the past it has been the Gus
tom of all the railroads to run their
excursions and reduce their rates in
the spring, summer or early fall, when
the farmers particularly, are too busy
to travel. Recognizing this fact it is
proposed to offer every one along the
line, an opportunity to travel when they
have the time, realizing that people in
the country have friends and relatives
in the cities and towns, and that such
friends will also wish to return the
visits, it is proposed to sell excursion
tickets to and from the cities from all
points within about $50 miles on Sat
urdays of each week good on all trains,
arriving in the evening and on all Sun
day trains; good returning on any Sun
day train scheduled to stop at their
station, and morning trains Monday.
The rate viii be the same in each di-
rection, that is, one fare for the round
trip. People who visit their relatives
and friends in the cities, wish at the
same time to see the indoor places such
as public buildings, restaurants, thea
tres, ETC., as they are more attractive
in winter when indoor life is at its best.
They do not care particularly for the
outdoor life, as they see plenty of that
every day. On the other hand city peo-
pie who go to visit the country, will
have a better time because their friends
and relatives have more time to enter
tain them. 1t seems reasonable, therefore,
that travel will increase in winter if
the same inducements are offered as in
the summer.
For those whom the above arrange
ment will not accommodate, another
plan has been devised, and on Fridays
of each week, tickets will be sold be-
tween al points over seventy-five miles
and under $50 miles, at the rate of one
and one third fare good going on the
date of sale, and for return any time
within five days. Both of the above
make short trip visits.
For those wishing to make longer
trips beyond $50 miles, tickets will be
sold on Fridays of each week between
all points on the line, except some of
the larger cities, at the rate of one fare
plus two dollars for the round trip, and
these tickets will be good to return
within five days, or if passenger desires
it, they will be extended ten days or
less upon an additional payment of one
third fare at destination. This change
in policy is due to the change in condi-
lions surrounding travel. Modern trains
are equipped with all the necessities and
luXuries of home, and travelling in
winter is no longer unpleasant. In fact
in some respects, it is better than in
summer as there is no dust or dirt, and
the accommodations are much better as
trains are not so crowded.
