Mr. Rhind's death came a few minutes
after he had become reconcned 10 his

several years.
The old soldier. who lived az IL
Madison avenue, decided last night that

one-story shack, their bloated faces
and swollen red noses proclaiming
that ''boozerino' still boozes in
Missouri. Crossing the line into
Kansas, there are no such evidences
of blasted lives and depleted pocket
books. There are no beer keg
touts. The men who are ION to"
the ropes can get whiskey in Kan
sas, but the school children have no
way Of acquiring an appetite for
beer and wine, for they are beyond
their reach, and Kansas as we'll as
other prohibition states is growing
a generation of boys and girls who
will go week in and week out with
out so much as thinking Of booze.
Prohibition may not prohibit in
Kansas, but it is gradually elimin-
ating thru posterity the desire for
liquor. Prohibition is going like
a prairie fire thru many of the
states of the Union, and some of
these times America will look back
on the little red-front saloon as a
characteristic feature of her early,
barbaric civilization. And even
the man who occasionally relishes a
glass of beer will welcome the day."
Willmar tribune., 1907-11-27

Senator Hansbrough Of NORTH
Dakota, altho republican, does not
exactly like the ways adopted by
the government to relieve the sit
uation. He says:
''The control Of the currency of
the country should be exclusively
in the hands of the government, and
there should be system by which
additional currency could be issued
Wen it is most needed. The treas
ury department has put practically
all the relief money down in Wall
Street, but it cannot hope to fill up
the gap down there. Where the
money is really needed is out here in
the West, in the great agricultural
region, where there are vast quanti-
ties of grain to be moved. | do
not care to criticize the treasury
departments, but cannot resist the
conclusion that if one-half of the
money which was poured into New
York banks as a remedy for the
trouble had been sent to the agri-
cultural West, the financial strin-
gency would have been of short du.
ration
Willmar tribune., 1907-11-27

but as they are not using any money
in the business world now it does
not affect the financial situation
materially. The bank is the win
ner so far to the extent of the in
terest on the bonds, and the govern
ment, that is the people, the loser
to the same extent.
The bank now turns around and
deposits the bonds in the U. S.
treasury, still getting the interest
on them, and gets permission to is
sue $5O, ,000, 900 of bank notes to be
loaned out to business men. Thus
it has practically doubled it's capi-
tai, getting interest on $1OO, 900,
900. The amount of money avail
able for circulation is now re stored
to where it was before the bonds
were sold.
The government then deposits the
$50, 600, 900 obtained by the loan in
the banks, to be used without pay
ing any interest, and the banks can
then loan it out at whatever rate of
interest money demands. There
fore the amount Of money in circu-
lation has been increased by $780,
900, 900, for which the government
furnishes the security and the banks
get the profits.
Now, suppose that the govern
ment had issued 100000 in nom
interest bearing greenbacks, the in
crease in circulating medium would
have been the same, the security
for the money would have been the
same and the effect on the business
world would have been the same.
The people would have been ahead
the interest on the bonds and the
pet banks would have been out that
much. That's all.
For whom is this governemnt
maintained-for the people or the
big eastern bankers?
Willmar tribune., 1907-11-27

Secretary Cortelyou has come to
the relief of the country by borrow
ing $50, 100000 on Panama bonds
and S100, 900, 900 on debt certificate
at three per cent interest. The
person not familiar with financial
legerdemain will undoubtedly rise
to ask how, when there is a money
stringency, it can help matters by
the governments borrowing money
from the banks, who have not
enough money on hand to dare to
resume paying out money on checks.
It does look strange, but never
theless it can be done as long as
Uncle Sam is willing to pay inter-
est on unnecessary debts and loan
the money back without interest.
Here. is the system used: @
: The government borrows $50,
OOO,009 on, Panama bonds, tho it
has $240, 1000, 900 Of surplus lying in
the pet banks, without getting any
interest from it. This draws that
sum from the banks temp orarily,

ana came 20 America In 1901, and
located ait Monroe, Wis. From
there he moved to Rice county, and
came to Norway Lake in 1869. His
three sons, Even, Peder and Truls,
all live in the neighborhood. The
old gentleman's declining days are
filled with physical suffering, for
he has a cancerous affection on one
eye. Mr.. Thorson, our host, takes
much interest in public affairs.
He entertained US with the best the
house afforded. and bade us well
come to come again.
On Friday we covered much
ground. We visited number of
homes in western Norway Lake.
One of the progressive young farm
ers of this section is Gunder H. o.
son. He has a fine residence, a
new barn, one built on the circular
plan, which is said to make them
storm-proof. He was just having
a trial of a new manure spreader in
his fields. This is a, labor-saving
vehicle which is fast being adopted
on Kandiyohi county farms. Mr..
Olson has lately added to his farm
by the purchase of eighty acres Of
land.
The noon hour was spent at
the splendid Hans Peterson farm
stead. Here we found the Rev. M.
A. Sotendahl ard a family gather
ing. On the evening before the
youngest son of the family, Carl,
had been united in marriage to
Miss Mary Mattson, a native of
Bergen, Norway, who lately ar
rived in this country. The elder
Peterson was one Of the early SET
tiers Of the community who came
before the Indian outbreak, and
served during the Indian war in the
Mounted Rangers. Mr.. Peterson
extended the hospitality Of the place
to the wandering scribe and his
team. During the afternoon we
made our way into Colfax and called
at several homes. AT the home of
Andrew O. Hystad we were enter
tained to some "reminiscences by
this hearty gentleman. One of the
finds on this place in the early days
was quantity of bullets and pow
der together with some Indian calu-
NETS. Something serious mus
have happened to the former owner,
for it was not in their nature to
leave ammunition to 60 to waste.
In the evening we were enter
tained at the home of Edward Lar
son, and when the moon arose to
light the landscape we drove across
the picturesque Lake Prairie to
New London.
On Saturday we drove down along
the beach of Green Lake to Spicer
We made several calls on the way.
At the Ahlstrom truck farm Mr..
Ahlstrom informed US of his ven
ture in chickens. He has. no less
than 500 pullets, which he expects
will! begin to lay eggs this winter.
