While honors are being heaped up
on the grand army men who hold
their reunion in our state this week,
there may be some of the younger
generation who regret that they did
not live in those stirring times when
there was opportunity to demon
strate ones love and devotion to his
country. But these opportunities
exist still, and perhaps in even
greater degree than in those days.
TO fight corruption, fraud and evil
of all kinds in high places, and in
low, requires as much courage and
often more, than is required in
shouldering a musket. The country
has need OF brave. men, and loyal
hearts now as we'll as in 81. To defy
a powerful corporation and make it
amenable and subservient to law,
may require as great courage, though
of a different kind, as would be
needed to hold whole army at bay.
Let no one suppose. that.the time for
patriotic deeds has passed away.

Minnesota was the first state in the
Union to respond to President Lin
coins call for volunteers. This
week, forty one years after the close
OF that bloody internecine war, the
state entertains within its borders,
in the beautiful city OF Minneapolis
the remnant of that large body of
men who went forth to battle for
union and liberty. Every succeeding
reunion since the close of that great
struggle, has found the ranks of the
patriots very much thinned, and it
is but a question of few years more
when the last grand army men will
have gone to bivouac on the other
shore. Forty one years have made a
great change in the country as we'll
as in the Grand Army of the Repub-
lie, and when these venerable men
do their marching this week, their
step Wilt-not be as elastic nor their
form as erect as when they were
mustered out of the service. But as
they pass by let every citizen un-
cover his head to do them honor 1t
is owing to their patriotism, bravery
and sacrifice that we have a great
united country to-day. Welcome,
therefore to Minneapolis, We heroes
of '61-'65. and may the memory of
your nozzle deeds be ever green in the
hearts of your countrymen. r.

If the people Of Marshall county
will prove that they are wise, and
we believe they are, they will
defeat overwhelmingly the PROPOSE
tion to divide the county at the pre-
sent time. It is too early for such a
move and cannot fail to have a
weakening and Gripping effect upon
the affairs Of the northern part of
the state. One large, strong and
populous county will count for more,
whether it be in business or poll
tics, than two small and weak
counties possible can. When the
great county OF Marshall, with it's 81
townships, lifts her voice in behalf
of any measure, she will be listened
to with respect. Her power and
Importance in the list of counties of
the state will be conceded. In a
time like this when state develop
ment is in the air, and Marshall
county, with its large undeveloped
area, is bound to profit by this move
ment more in proportion than any
other county in the state, it would
seem folly to undermine our influence
by division of our power, The
eastern part, for example, needs a
comprehensive system Of drainage
and Surveyor Ralph has just shown
how the drainage of Mud Lake, for
instance, will make dry and tillable
that whole region. We, for one, would
not be averse to bonding the whole
of Marshall county, if necessary, to
accomplish such a desirable result.
And in developing the county the
newer eastern portion is more in
need of assistance from the western
part than the western is in need of
assistance from the eastern part.
But by working together harmonious
ly more can be accomplished than if
we stand divided. We need one an
others help to make Marshall county
the most populous and best titled
and improved county in the state.
When we have done that we can
afford to divide. That is the way it
looks to large majority OF people in
the county, We firmly believe.

Republican State Ticket.
NOT LUNIBERMEN'S CANDIDATE.

A campaign lie that is making the
rounds<of the opposition press, is
that A. L. Cole is the lumbermen' s
candidate for governor. Tom Shev-
Inns little banquet after the Duluth
convention may have served as a
starter for this story, but the fact of
the matter is that Che lumber inter-
ests were arrayed rather against than
for Mr.. Cole in the pre-convention
contest. Mr.. Shevlin's JOY was
caused by the defeat of Jacobson
whom he disiiked, and not by the
nomination of Cole. When Mr.. Cole
was member Of the legislature in
1908 he worked hard to secure the
passage Of law requiring that logs
be listed for taxation in the country
where they were cut, instead OF
where they happen to be found on
May l.,
He had discovered that it was i'm
possible to locate all the logs after
they were removed from the place
where they we're cut, and that for
that reason at least l,alf of them
escape taxation. 1t had been the
rule also to list only half of the logs
found on the ground that the lumber
companies could retaliate against
high assessment by having the log
mark recorded in the office of surveyor
general of logs in the name OF some
person living elsewhere. Although
the bill was fought hard Mr.. Cole
succeeded in passing it in the house.
In the senate, however, it was de-
feated, but his fight had the result
of causing all logs found to be listed
thereafter contrary to the wishes of
many lumber men. In the primary
election of 1904, when Mr.. Cole was
again candidate, the lumber in
terests were opposed to him, as can
De verified, by the votes of towns
dominated by said interests He has
also interested himself in getting
state lands having valuable pine
growing thereon appraised at their
true value. AS a member of the pu-
bile lands committee he helped to
form a new act for appraising state
lands. 1t requires that one appraiser,
named by the state auditor, shall be
one Of the state cruisers, and not a
resident Of the county where the
land lies. One appraiser is named
by the governor and the other by the
county board. When timber is found
on the land,-it may be sold with the
land, but the full value of the tim
Der must be paid at the time of sale.
AS member Of this committee Mr..
Cole also labored to secure more
stringent timber trespass law In
fact, Mr.. Cole has done more than
any other member Of the legisla-
ture in recent years to protect the
interests of the state against robbing
by lumber barons, and the cry that
he is the 'lumbermen's candidate,"
is very unjust.

THE CREAM SEPARATOR.
It Pays to Use It, as It Is the Key to Progress In Southern
 Oairying.

The separator is the key to progress of dairying. and dairying is the thing that the south should develop. With & climate that can not be excelled, an abundance of good grasses, pure water and the biggest and best mar kets in the world, must soon become a potent influence in the dairying markets of the world. She needs the cream separator, and needs it badly.
 If the cost of a separator seems high for farm implement, please consider for moment that it is an allthe-yearround machine. Sundays included, and not like nearly all the agricultural machines, intended for use only few days in the year. For example, if your binder is worth S12S for ten days work in the year, the in- terest on it's cost is 75 cents per day of work. If the separator costs s125 for 365 days of the year. this interest on it's cost Is two cents per day of work, less than three per cent of the cost of the binder. Remember in counting the cost that the separator must have constitution like a man who never gets sick, for it will not do to have a machine stop for single day.
 Another important step in favor of the separator is the churnability. With the old system much of the butter is always lost in the buttermllk, and oc. easionally the cream will not churn at all. There is a weblike fiber or yiscous matter derived from numer- ous conditions which gradually deyel. ops in all milk when it comes from the COW. increasing as the milk ages. This helps materially to retard cream ing by the settling process, and causes great part of the trouble in the failure of the butter to gather in the churn.
 In the case of the separator, the milk is separated very soon after con- ing from the COW. before the fiber has had time to develop. and what little there may be of it is thrown out of the cream and left within the sepa- rator bowl. The consequence ', the separaor cream readily churns into butter The saving in time required is fully one.half, while the grain and texture of the butter will easily av- craze from 10 to 20 per cent. better quality,

Immense Leaves of Palm.

The palm family bears longer leaves than any other known tree. The Inaga palm, growing on the banks Of the Amazon, has leaves which reach from 35 to 50 feet in length, and 10 10 12 feet in breadth. Specimens of the talepot palm. na- tive of Geylon, has been met with 20 feet long and IS feet broad. These leaves are used by the natives to make tents, and, thus employed, they make very efficient shelters from rain. The leaves of the double cocoanut palm are often 90 feet long and sey- eral wide. The leaves of the canni- bal tree of Australia resemble broad blanks and are frequently 15 feet long, 20 inches broad and 1ia feet thick at the base. These beardlike leaves all shoot out at the top and hang down so as to form sort of umbrella around the stem. The Hm- brella tree of Ceylon has leaves Of such enormous size that a single one will cover from 15 to 20 men. and often serves as a canopy to q boat. or tent for soldiers. X specimen leaf taken to England measured 56 feet round.

ERRORS ABOUT THE WHITE
 HOUSE.
To the Editor.

To the Editor:
 noticed somewhere recently-I would not say positively that 1t YVES in yoHr columns-aH article on the White House which contained several mis. statements.
 In the first place it was stated the White House was first occupied in 1909 and thar it's first occupant was President Madison. The fact is. its first occupant was President Adams who took up his residence there in 1900.
 The original mansion was begun in t792. In 1S11 it was burned by the British and rebuilt in ISIS.
 Another of the errors in the article referred to was the statement that readyprepar d paint is used on the White House to make 1t beautifully white.
 l noticed this especially because have used considerable paint myself and wondered that canned paint should be used on such an important building when all painters know that pure white lead and linseed oil make the best paint.
 It 50 happened also that l knew white lead and linseed oil-not ready. mixed paint-were used on the White House, because l had just read book let published by firm of ready-mixed paint manufacturers who also manu- facture pure white lead. In that book the manufacturers admitted that for the White House nothing but the best and purest of paint could be used" and said that their pure white lead had been selected.
 Above all people, those who attempt to write on historical subjects should give us facts. even if it is only date or a statement about wood, or brick, or paint, or other building material.
 Yours for truth,
