Ten Commandments Revised.

The ten commandments as revised
plan:
First-You shall sell your farm pro-
ducts for cash whenever you can, but
not to us; we do not buy from you.
Second-You shall believe our state
ments and buy all your goods from us
because we want to be good to you,
although we are not personally &C.
quainted with you.
Third-You shall send the money
in advance to give us the chance to
get the goods from the factory with
your money meanwhile you will have
to wait patiently few weeks because
that is our business method.
Fourth-You shall apply to your
nearest city to aid you in building
good roads so you may conveniently
get the goods from the depot which
you buy from us, for we do not build
country roads.
Fifth-You shall buy church bells
and inferior fixtures from US and for
ward the money in advance, for that
is our business method, and you shall
collect from the business men in your
vicinity as much money as you can
for the benefit of your churches
Although we get more money from
you than they do, still it is against
our rules to donate money for build
ing country churches.
Sxth-You shall buy your tools from
us and be your own mechanic, in
order to drive the mechanics from
your vicinity. for we wish it so.
Seventh-You shall induce your
neighbor to buy everything from us,
as we have room for more money-the
less money there is left in your COM
munity, the sooner we can put your
local merchants out of business and
charge you any price we please.
Eighth-You shall look often at the
beautiful pictures in our catalogue, so
your wishes will increase. and you
will send in big order, although you
are not in immediate need of the
goods, otherwise you might have some
money left to buy necessary goods of
your merchants.
Nintb-You shall have the mechan-
les who repair the goods you buy
from us book the bill so you can send
the money for his labor to us for new
goods, otherwise he will not notice
our influence.
Tenth-You shall, in case of acct
dent, sickness or need, apply to your
local dealer for aid and credit, as we
do not know you.-St. Paul Trade
Journal.

When the Union Pacific railroa,
was completed with government assis
lance it was almost universally hell
that the enterprise would not be du
piicated within the memory of livin,
men.
The baroness of the country be
tween the Missouri river and the Pa
Ecific coast, it was said, was a barrier
to further railroad building. The
conquest of the Rocky mountains 6
second time was declared to be all but
impossible. There was no other pass
through which another road could
cross the mountains.
Today there are six transcontinental
lines. Three years perhaps
even sooner-there will be seven. The
Pacific extension of the Chicago, Mil
waukee and ST. Paul Railway will be
the new link of steel to bind the west
ern coast of the country to the lands
on the higher side of the Missouri.
The enterprise is already assured of
successful completion.
The lands which were pronounced
barren forty years ago have blossomed
as the rose. The passes of the noun
tains have been found. Throughout
the entire route of the st. Paul extern
sion a rich and developed country
awaits the advent of the locomotive.
Engineering difficulties have been met
and overcome. The road is certain to
be on a paying basis from the first
The enterprise means much for the
Pacific coast, more for the Puget
sound region and most for Chicago.
A direct line to the northwest will
undoubtedly develop trade not only
with the Pacific coast, but with the
orient. The assurance is confirmed
by the known energy. activity and
prOgressiveness of the st. Paul man.
agement, which will undoubtedly
carry to the Pacific coast the policy of
enterprise which has
placed it among the first of Americas
great railroad systems.
The new line to the coast signifies
progress for the whole middle west.
