A SUCCESSFUL INSTITUTION

The Farmers Creamery reports with
much satisfaction that their ship
ment of bntter this week is much
larger than usual for this time of the
year, and that many new patrons are
coming each week.
They would be glad to get all the
cream in this country, as it is their
determination to make the Farmers
creamery one of the largest and best
in the state, and this means the high
est price for butter fat to the man who
milks the cows. Minnesota holds the
record for being the best dairy state
Choice butter is high and always will
be, and every farmer who will stock
his farm with good, all-purpose COWS
and make speciality of clarifying and
selling his cream to the Farmers
creamery will find that he has a colo
mine right at homes
Ten tons per acre of fodder corr
cankbe raised and ten acres of this
with enough fresh winter COWS to con-
sumo it will make farmer more clear
profit than 200 acres of wheat.

STANDARD OIL PROSPERITY

OF all investments now offered the
public, none perhaps is so certain to
produce quick and large profits as the
stock of the Self Threading Sewing
Machine Needle Company of Mime
apolis. This is true because the
manufacturers of this wonderful
needle have monopoly of the bust
ness, and having already larger de-
mand than they can meet, and as the
profits on needles is simply enormous
about 600 per cent-owners of stock
in this concern are more than likely
to experience some real Standard Oil
prosperity. If you have few idle
dollars that you'd like to invest at
something like IL per cent to begin
with, it will certainly pay you to in
vestigate this. The Self Threading
Needle Co.'s offices are at Suite 70S,
Andrus Bldg, Minneapolis, MINI.

Pioneer Business College Echoes

Messrs. Willie Book, AIphonso
Barto, Paul Koehler, Henry McKigney
and Floyd Marshall are new students
at the college this week. By the way,
the attendance is steadily growing,
and preparations are being made to
accommodate heavy enrolment this
year.
DR.. h. l.. Lamb was in Freeport
and Albany on Tuesday in the in

The college faculty is contemplating
securing the services Of some able
speakers to give series of lectures to
the students the coming winter, which
will, no doubt, prove interesting and
instructive to all.
Geo. F. Bouton spent Saturday in
Little Falls in the interest Of the
college. He states that five young
men and women who have recently
taken up Stenography and Type
writing under his instruction are
now located in banks on the Little

Pacific.
The college gymnasium will be
fitted up with an entirely new equip
ment this winter which will be of in

A Pipe Dream.

We wish to acknowledge the receipt
of an elegant French brier pipe, with
patented anti-nicotine arrangement
that almost gives us the intellectual
delirum tremeps to manage from the
Honorable Granville S. Pease of the
Anoka Union, or, as Charley Towne
would say, "The Nestor of Minnesota
Journalism" Thanks of course, but
we are surprised at cold Pease' for
his lack of perspicuity. We have a
stock of missouri Meerschaums"
large enough to last us several years.
What he ought to have sent us was
good smoking tobacco and lots of it.

print on the Civilization of the
Present. If he likes a man, even
though he does not endorse the
mans private or public record, he
stands by that man. If for any
reason he acquires dislike for a
public man, even if he stands call
fours' for the things Nelson stands
for that man don't get his supports.
We were eight years in Congress
and we know that Knute Nelson
was the most undefatigable worker
in either branch of congress. We
never arrived at the Capitol early
enough not to find Knute at his
desk and we never stayed long
enough to see him 60 home.
During our eigh; years residence
in Washington we never met him
at horse-race, a ball game or at n
theatre and we attended such
functions several times. We be-
lieved we were entitled to some fun
while alive because according to
the best authorities we are going to
be dead for a number of centuries.
The only public gathering we know
he attended is Luther's church on
10th street. He was there regularly
every Sunday morning at 1880
A. NJ. We can be searched for
reasons why he went to church.
The Senator can explain this on the
stump this fall.
+ Senator Nelson received the un.
precedented honor of being nomi-
mated, mark we say "nominated, !"
by the republican convention at
Duluth, and in our judgment to
oppose him would be just as much
of a bolt as it would be to oppose
A. L. Cole, Julius Schmah1 or any
other nominee of the republican
convention.

For some unaccountable reason
an impression seems to be abroad
that the editor of the Herald is
opposed to Knute Nelson's re-elec-
ton to the United States Senate.
Nothing could be farther from the
truth than this. We have known
the Senator ever since he came to
the state. We have known him as
state senator, as congress man, as
governor and as United States
senator and we think we know
every side of this many-sided man
as no one else in the state knows
him. We have often differed from
him on measures and candidates as in
the last congressional primary cam
paign, and when our ideas predomi-
nate we are as proud as boy with
his first pants. We think anyone
who wins out in political tussle
with the sold man" is fairly en-
titled to 90 away back and toss
boquets at himself.
In the blacklist hours of the
Nations despair cold Knute," then
"Young Knute," cast his educa-
tional prospects, his political
prospects and his financial prospects
to the four winds and joined that
now rapidly vanishing army that
swept southwark like an angry sea.
No soldier made better record
than he. He never missed a roll
call-or a meal-till on the bloody
field of Port Hudson he was shot
through and through and lay for

hours sweltering in his own gore
beneath a southern sun. We were
intimately acquainted with Senator
Nelson ever since he came to the
state. We knew in general way
that he served in the Union army,
but we never knew what brave
war record he had until we had it
from the lips of his old captain
who was our guest at luncheon in
the House restaurant, and who used
to come down to Washington every
session to smoke pipe and drink
a "rum punch with his little
Norwegian Corporal.
We always regarded as the
browning glory of our congressional
career the passage of the eddy
Free Homestead Bill" This
matter involved more than s35, OOO,,

of the Committee on Public Lands,
the avowed opposition of the leaders
on both sides of the House and this
s35, 100000 did not 60 to trusts,
corporations or combinations OF
wealth, but to sturdy home-makers
and citizen producers that have
made this the greatest nation among
all the great nations of earth. 1t
was the greatest legislative victory
for men that was won in the Halls
of Congress in the last fifty years.
We received much credit and we
were entitled to much credit for its
passage, but if ssKnute' had not
aided us by his sage advice, born of
long legislative experience and
stood by US as close as a burdock
burr in a cows tail, we would
have been as helpless as piping
canary bird in the claws of our
Maltese tom-cat, that has licked
everything in the animal kingdom
within four blocks Of our residence.
In the matter of the Northern
Pacific Indemnity lands in which
we were both mutually interested
Nelson stuck to his position with
a pertinacity equal to that of
bulldog with his teeth fastened In
the seat of tramp's trousers until
he got what he wanted and more

than 1900 farmers were saved the

than 1900 farmers were saved their
homes.
When we passed the bill for a
Public Building for Fergus Falls
the largest appropriation for city
of that size ever secured, except
one,-Senator Nelson kept in his
seat all night to see that it did not
get lost in the shuttle.
AS far as our knowledge goes,
and we think we know something
of what we are talking about, when
ever the interests of the people and
the interests of the corporations
clashed Nelson was always with the
people.
He has been charged with being
a CRATER, but the mere fact that
with opportunities for grating that
were absolutely unlimited he only
possesses modest competency is a
sufficient refutation. We know, as
an absolute fact, that metropolitan
law firm offered him salary more
than double that of United States
Senator for the mere use of his
name at the head of their firm
which was contemporary spurned
by Nelson with the remark that he
could not earn the amount offered
and perform his duties as Senator
and his reputation was not for sale.
He has been charged in the
Cosmopolitan magazine as being
one of the bunch of ssJim Hill
senators, but when it is known that
this magazine is owned and con.
trolled by William Randolph
Hearst, the Grand High Priest OF
American Yellow Newspaperdom,
to dignity this charge with asten-
ton would be an insult to the
intelligence of American voters.
We know Nelson has his faults.
He is as bull-headed as mule and
as obstinate as the devil and he is
Just as bull-headed and obstinate
when he is wrong as when he is
right. He is no saint, if he were
he would be in Heaven instead of
in the United States Senate and
everybody will admit there is quite
a difference between the two places.
Nelson possesses all the failings and
all the virtues of his Viking
ancestry who have left their i'm

would make careful calculation of
the number of times the south has

how many times the people of the
breaking down of sectional lines. 3"
As long ago as Gen Grants time
there were assurances that sectional
lines had disappeared forever, and
from this great Caesar down to the
present hero in the White House
there have been frequent occurrences
of the very happy ceremony of pleas

themselves in all the comic operas

The Farmers and the Tariff

The farmers csn hardly approve The Re
publican stand pat program, when they end
the price Of wheat, oats, corn and cotton de,
cliniug and the cost OF all they hay rapidly
advancing. Where does the boosted protee.
ton 10 agriculture come in under The present
protective tariff and bow are farmers protected,
although the tariff law provides that % cents
bushel on Rhea, and 10 cents bushel on
oats be collected on imports? The price Of
wheat is now lower than it has been for ten
years or since the preseat,ariii law was enacted
IN August, 1897.
Those farmers, who are Republicans, should
demand OF their stand pat leaders = fair
deal, and If the Agricultural machinery trust,
the barbed wire combine, the lumber associA-
ton aud the clothing trusts, are TO still be
protected by the tariff 10 charging exorb,'ant
prices for their products, thai some method Of
raising the price Of cereals and keeping them
stable should offset trust high prices.
The fact is, however. that 40 tariff can pro.
teei tse farmer on his products, Of which the
surplus must be sold abroad. as The price paid
by the foreigners for that surplus ixes the
price here. The only relief the farmer can
receive is to be able to buy in the eheapes,
market and this he can never do as long a.
the trusts, that control all be buys. are pro.
tec,ed by the tariff from composition Il is
plain therefore that the farmer who votes for
g Republican Congressman and FOR Rspubli-
can candidates for the legislature, who in taru
will elect Republican senators, is voting 10
continue the protection to the trusts and Cor
high prices, with no protection 10 help the
price of his own products.

Seventy Millions Increased Profits.

How the trusts and combines are plaEdering
the American people, is shown by the enor
vsous profits made this year by the Steel Trust.
Every one pays their share of the vast toll that
this gigantic combination takes from the grist
run through its hopper. "On March g. 1897,
says the New York World just before the
party of high prices took possession of the
Government, and when there was no Steel
Trust, American steel rails were selling in the
market at SIS to $50 per ton. Foreigners can
still get them for that, but Americans have to
pay the trust s2S, an increase of from 40 to
so per cent. The trust has maintained the
$2S rate for home customers without variation
since it was organized, representing net in
crease profits of over $70,O00,000 above a
normal amount for that time. And Mr. Nor.
gan enthusiastically Stands pat for the re-
tention in power of an Administration that
stands for SO much prosperity"
Do not imagine that because you have no
railroad stock, or even if you never rode on a
steam or street railroad that the price of steel
rails does not affect your pocket. In fact
everything you buy is advanced in price by
the freight that is charged, for we cannot ex-
peci low railroad rates and expensive railroad
construction. Then just think of the large
number of articles of steel or iron that you
daily use, all of watch are greatly increased
in price by the extra toll the Steel Trust takes,
because the protection from competition the
tariff gives the trust allows it to export these
high prizes. This toll is nearly $40 year
from each family, from this one trust, and
there are 1876 of these. protected by the tariff
in ike manner.

Croker Is For Bryan.

NEw YoRK, September 5.--According 10
Miss Annie Campbell. = young newspaper
woman of Providence, Z. l., who returned
today from Europe on the steamship CaroHia,
she was present at dinner given in Belfast
by Thomas Gallagher the great Irish tobacco
manufacturer, at which Richard Croker said
to William Jennings Bryan that he expected
TO come to America TO vote for Bryan aad 10
work for his election.
Mr.. Croker is alleged to have said that Mr..
Bryan was the logical Democratic candidate
and that he felt assured the Commoner would
be elected.

at Washington Mr.. Croker is quoted as say
ing, land it can rehabilitate itself there by
supporting you with vigor and energy. You
are the one man who can carry the country
against Roosevelt. In my opinion Mr.. Roose
welt has weakened himself with the trusts and
would stand no chance against you even II he
decided to run for a third term. | predict
that you will be nominated aud that you will
sweep the United States in 1908. And Ipro.
pose to be there TO vote for you and do all in
my power to insure your election.
The meeting is said TO have taken place
about two weeks before Mr. Bryan went to
Gibraltar, whence be sailed for New York.
According to Miss Campbelrs account the
two men were to meet at a certain hour 10 the
afternoon, but Mr.. Croker was late. He did
not arrive until evening, and Mr.. Bryan had
to stay over in Belfast until the following
morning. Mr.. Gallagher learned of the pres
ence of the two distinguished Americans and
arranged the dinner. Others at the dinner,
Miss Campbell said, we're the United States
Consul at Belfast and a nephew of the host.
Miss Campbell completed her story with
the announcement that Mr.. Gallagher would
arrive here Saturday as passenger on the
Campania, being on his way to Virginia, where
he has large tobacco interests.
