Tho Dalinoator for June.

The June Delineator is a most at
tractive number, containing the usual
array of the latest styles, with the in
teresting fashion chronicles of Helen
Berkeley-Loyd and Edouard La Foun-
taine, and literary features of the
greatest excellence. Burton E.. Stew
enson contributes: the first part of
''The Rose,of Sharon" a mystery tale
that will tax the ingenuity of it's read
ers to solve, and there are short stor-
les by Kathryn Jarboe, and Wolf Won
Schierbrand, the former a story of the
new Japan, and the latter a Russian
narrative. ''The President of Quex'
is continued. Under the title, ''The
Revival of an Old Assembly," Peter
Preneau describes the ball at the AS
tor House, New York.: which called
forth national comment at the time it
was held, insApril. Gustav Kobbe in
terestingly tells the story of ''Home,
Sweet Home," and there is variety
of excellent verses. For children there
are "Stories and Pastimes, among
them one of Alice Browns Gradual
Fairy Tales and for the woman OF
the home, many articles of housewife

BAKING POWDER AGAIN

Alum Goods That tsKssque Grade S "nfGh

Retailers, Journal. Chicaoo

Retailers Journal, Chicago.
In previous analyses we have shown
that the 25-cent alum baking powders
are an imposition, both on the con
sumer and the retailer, as the differ
ence in cost, of manufacture of TO-
cent alum baking powder and q 25-
cent one is not more than one cent q
pound.
There is the Calumet baking powder,
an alum powder with about one cents
worth of phosphate added to it, and
which retails for. 25-cents. It is not
worth more than 10 or II cents. which
we showed by analysis. In order to
sell this powder at all they are now
preparing premium scheme and are
going to give away hairpins and other
cheap trash that may be attractive to
the eye and cover up their transac-
tions. They can we'll afford to give
Is cents worth of goods with every
pound of baking powder they sell.
If alum baking powder is used at
all, 10 cents is reasonable price, as
alum costs only two cents a pound,
which leaves the manufacturer a fair
profit. While we know that cream of
tartar baking powders are sold at
higher prices than others, we also
know that chemically pure cream of
tartar used in the highest-grade pow
der costs at least twelve times more
than alum. =: ~. =. .s>:s

I have just received my new spring
stock of wall paper, which surpasses
anything I have ever had before. I
invite you to come in and look ovee

new stock and strictly up-to-date and
prices right. I devote all my time to
studying designs and color blending,
both in wall paper and paint. Does
it not stand to reason that I know

WONDERS WHY? d:

It was understood that the Tribune
was going into the roasting busi-
ness this week on account of that r,l-
mored resignation, but for some rea-
son changed its mind. Wonder Why?
Republican Gazette. s*=.s-.
For the same reason that no
newspaper publishes half Of what
it knows. The difficulty was ad-
justed satisfactorily to those i'm.
mediately concerned, no public
interest was jeopardized and
those who so miserably failed to
intimidate the aldermen exposed
themselves. So there is really
no necessity on those grounds to
deal in disagreeable PERSONAL,
ties.

TELEPHONE EARNINGS.

Regarding the gross earnings
of the Willmar Telephone Ex-
change we stated last week that
the latest published report was
that of 1901, when the figure was
given as $2,621.39. In reply to
an inquiry to the state auditor,
the following figures are given
for the last three years:
Year ending Nov. 80, 1908. SIS, 1e4. p
i" /" {" g 1904. .. 5,86S. .63
" /" 1905. :. 6,264.47
These figures show that the
earnings are rapidly increasing.
The franchise is too valuable to
be allowed to be used for nothing
by private individuals. The
plant should be taken over by
the people of the city. at a fair
appraisal of what it can be dupli-
Gated for when the present fran
chise expires next spring, and
the city would not only secure
better service but derive a hand
some revenue from the same,
which would help to reduce tax

The SPECIAL ELECTION.


THE SPECIAL ELECTION.
The city council has decided to
ask the citizens Of Willmar to
place $4,000 in the permanent i'm.
provement revolving fund to
facilitate the making of street
improvements: At a special cleo
tion to be held June 18th, the
question will be submitted to the
voters of the city. This issue of
bonds would not be for the pur-
pose of paying any deficiency or
to be used for any specific i'm
provement but would be a per-
manent asset of the city and
would be used over and over
again year after year. When the
city is called on to make street
improvements and laying side.
walks the cost of which under the
charter is to be paid by abutting
property the means for doing the
work has now to be. taken out of
the general street fund which
has been raised for general work
and repairs and hence limits the
amount that is available for that
work. The money comes back
in the next years taxes from the
property benefited and is there
fore not lost to the city. The
question is simply whether the
city shall be in position to make
the necess sary improvements
when the holders of the property
neglect to do so.
There is sufficient money in
the sinking fund Of the city to in
vest in the city's bonds for the
purposes of this revolving fund,
so that practically the vote on
the bonds will simply be for the
purpose of ofremovinga technicality
which prevents the city from u.s.
ing the money it now has on
hand for the purpose Of facilitat:
ing such street improvements:
The charter does not permit any
contract to be made unless there
is money in the treasury with
which to pay for the work and
as no taxes can be levied against
the property benefited until the
work is done, it will be seen that
it is necessary for the city to ad-
vance the money if the, work is
to be done. There is no good
reason why this proposition
should not carry, and we are GER
tain that if the matter is correct
ly understood by the voters it
will carry.
It has been rumored that GER
tain advocates of saloon license
would oppose this proposition in
the hope of defeating it and thus
embarrassing the council. Per-
haps they will, but the large ma
jority of the license voters are
not so spiteful that they would
oppose the making of necessary
improvements in the city simply
because they are not represented
upon the council.
The question at the election
pending is simply this: Shall
the city be permitted to invest
the money it has on hand in the
sinking fund in "a revolving fund
to facilitate the laying of sewers,
sidewalks, ETC., the money to be
returned to the city in the taxes
paid by the property benefited?

visitor. One would expect the mer-
that the business that should come to
them goes to the larger places, but
instead one finds on inquiring that
line and are able to fill orders for
telephoning to the larger stores in
to them by express on the inter
urban. Everyone, In fact, uses the
interurban to his own best advantage,
and no one can be found who has not
good word for it.
Increases Farm Values.
The line makes business for itself.
1t makes it possible for man work
ing in the city to live on small farm
several miles distant. He can catch a
car and be at work early in the morn
ing, get lunch in town and be at home
for the evening meal. In the mean
time he can raise garden truck for his
table and enjoy the life Of the farm
without any of the old time inconve-
niences. 1t increases the values OF
farm lands, too. A Rockford real es-
tate dealer is authority for this state
ment and his testimony is backed by
that of several farmers. In listing for
sale a farm around Rockford now the
distances from the city and from the
school house and church are given
consideration only after the possible
purchaser learns the distance from
the interurban line. With the ears
in easy reach the other matters can
be arranged satisfactorily, but with
out them the old question of roads
and the drive to town is still to the
fore in the mind of the prospective
buyer, and the farm nearest the cleo
trio line is the one to which he turns
when me time comes for making
purchase, even at higher figure.
One splendid advantage which the
interurban has over the steam rail-
. road is that the cars stop wherever
the passengers desire. There is no
walking half mile or more to sta
ton, waiting hours for a late train and
then walking another mile to store
in the city. The interurban runs
through the city and the little towns
too, not along the edges. 1t stops at
/ all the street corners and the cross
roads. and withal it makes good time
and maintains an hourly service or
better, as the patronage Of the lines
justifies.
In this age Of prosperity and pro-
4 gress the interurban is an important
i mart of the machinery that makes for
4 advancement The country telephone
brought the farmer close to the town,
4 the rural mail route brought him near
} er. and. the interurban stops for him
at his gate and takes him right to the
city itself, setting him down at the
!; store door and calling for him when
he is ready to make the return trip.
