The death of W. w. Erwin, better
known as ttBill" Edwin, removes a
picturesque, and interesting figure in
the legal history of the northwest.
AS resident of Minneapolis and st.
Paul, as criminal lawyer of re-
markable skill, talent and ingenuity,
Erwin was well and widely known.
On one or two occasions he appeared
in the defense Of criminal cases in
Burlefgh county, and while his ser
viees may not have achieved much
for the. cause Of justice, they ac-
hieved much for the cause of the de-
fendants. Erwin came to be known
as a last resort Of, desperate cases,
and it came to pass that his pres
ence in the trial room in behalf Of a
defendant was looked upon as an
indication of the desperate nature
of the case in. hand. Erwin was
quick, shrewd, splendid. Judge , Of
human nature as its phases are erl man IAN

DOUBLE DECKER POTATOES.

connectieat Farmers Plants Bear
Tubers Above and Below Ground.
Samuel Wilson Of Wolcott, near wa
terbury, Conn, is raising potatoes both
above and below ground on the same
vine as q result OF two years Of ex-
perimenting.
A4few weeks fago on looking over his
new potato plants he saw little bud
like protuberances growing out from
the bases sof the leaves. These buds
developed into well formed and good
sized potatoes Of the same kind as those
growing at the roots OF the plants.
The bush potato Is a cross between
the Beauty Of Hebron potato and the
Delaware. Those above ground grow
from four TO eight on plant, one at
the base of each leaf. Food experts
report the hybrid to be far from nu-
fritious than the Irish or sweet po-
tato and much more easily grown.

MIR. HILRaaND THE NORTHWEST

An interesting event in a social
and historical way was the recent
banquet to James T. Hill given by
employees Of the Great Northern road
whoi have been, in the service since
1880. Mr. Hill has been in the rail-
road business in the northwest only
about thirty years and yet what a
wonderful Transformation there has
been in the great northwest. Where
his road now bears enormousbur-
dens of freight, apd passengers thirty
years ago. there were hundreds and
hundreds of miles of unset
tied territory, untried, undeveloped,
comparatively unknown. Without
government aid or encouragement,
but with prophetic insight into the
future, Mr.. Hill crossed half the
continent with a road, and did an
ample share toward developing the
country from st. Paul to the Pacific
coast. His mastery of the business
of railroad building and Transports
tion was phenomenal, and in less
than the busy years of an average
man. he has seen such changes in
the northwest as would not have
been believed when he began his
railroad building.
In referring to the occasion the
st. Paul Dispatch observes: +.
ObserVant ones are saying to-
day that pronounced change
has taken place in the popular
attitude Of the people Of Min
nesota and the northwest tow Z
ard Mr.. Hill. For thirty years
they criticised him unsparingly
andt impugned his every motive,
no matter though that motive
contemplated a service for the
material well being of the COM
munity as well as for his own
corporate interests. 1c8
1t took him many years to-
open the eyes of the others as
his own had been from the start, g
to the fnterdependence of the
railroads and the people they
serve. Nothing can benefit or
injure the one without beneiting
OF injuring the other, was the
doctrine he preached, in and out
of season. On that proposition
Mr.. Hill no longer stands alone.
The opposition to him has Of
ten been put to partisan political
uses, and the hostility, too large
" nnreas0ning, directed against
him. has not infrequently been
based upon envy and prejudice.
But all this has been modifed Y
of late years and its entire dis
appearance may be looked for at
NO distant day. The northwest,
like the whole country, is grad i
ua11y coming to know Mr.. Hill
for what he really is and has
been, and Is not inclined to~de-
fer evidence Of its appreciation
till the time arrives when he Is
with us no longer. g p
