The execution of Professor Ferrer
by the Spanish government was
nothing less than an atrocious murder
and the people have been aroused to
a state of frenzy thereby. Ferrer was
a noted educator-a man who sought
to enlighten the people. On trumpet
up charges he was condemned to
death, and even the tears of his
daughter, who upon Bonded knees be-
fore the king asked that his life be
spared, proved of no avail. But the
murder of F'errer will be avenged in
the name of heaven and the throne OF
Spain,s which is at this very time
tottering, will be overthrow. The
downfall is certain.

TOO Many a UOTIONs SALES. 7s
In almost every country newspaper

Farmers are leaving their farms pre-.

ing their condition elsewhere. This
is not as it should be, and we cannot
help thinking that the man who is the
owner of a fairly productive piece OF
land in Minnesota makes mistake
when he disposes of the same under
the impression that he can do better
in the cities or "out west.'' In nine
cases out of ten he will be disappoint-
ed. The laboring men are the first to
feel the effects of business depression
in the cities, and once or twice in
every decade there are periods of
stagnation in business. True, we
have rather severe winters in Mime

cradle to slush and mud. Take it
all in all there is no state or country
where intelligent, diversified farming
pays better than in our own Mime

NO JEALOUSY HERE.

If Judge Collins, Ell Torrance and
Bob Dunn could be induced to stand
aside just long enough to let Governor
Eberhart get good start there might
be some hope for party harmony in
the near future, but with them always
butting in and at the wrong time there
is great danger of reviving the old
feud all along the line.-St. Peter
Free Press.
What would the owlish editor of the
Free Press have Bob Dunn do-get
off the earth? Bob has not interfered
by word Or deed in any shape or
manner with Gov. Eberhart, his APP
pointees or proposed appointees,
neither has he attempted to advise
or counsel with his excellency. Mr..
Dunn is perfectly willing that Oar
Reese and Ed. Smith sho:ld do the
counseling. He is not a bit Jealous

No doubt improved waterways are
necessary and their Improvement
would result in great benefit to the
large shipping interests direct and to
the consumer Indirectly, sensibly re-
marks the Cambridge independents
Press. "But,' it adds, "what we are
mostly interested in as being of direct
benefit to the people is improved high
way. Why not appoint some CON-
mission in this state that can and
will devise some legal method by
which fund can be created, Judi
ciously handled and honestly expend-
ed in the improvement of highways,
and method that will be entirely
divorced from political graft and
personal interest? That is what the
farmer, who has heavy loads to haul
and long distance to market, is pri-
marily interested in, and what is to
his direct benefit is of indirect benefit
to everyone else.''
Under the constitution as it is the
only fund available is the income de-
rived from investments in the internal
Improvement land fund, and five per
centum of the proceeds of the sale of
United States land within the state,
which together amount to a few
thousand dollars annually The
legislature is authorized to add to
such fund the proceeds of a one-fourth
of one mill tax on all the taxable
property within the state. It is dis
cretionary with the legislature to levy
this tax, and no such tax was levied
at the last session of the legislature,
hence the state highway commission
will have only a few thousand dol
lars at its disposal for the next two
years.
