Approves of Our Little Tribute.
"Bob" Dunn, in his Princeton
Q mon, paid one of the neatest and
most eloquent tributes to the memory
OF the late Gov. Johnson we have
read. Whatever may be his faults,
none can deny that Bob Dunn is a
big hearted Irishman-generou to his
political opponents and loyal to his
triends.-Wadena Pioneer j Journal.

1t is to be presumed that Ralph
Wheelock's Thoughts on Things''
will be OF different hue since his an

Governor Eberhart, but it is improba-
Die the general public will be per-

thoughts as it was when Mr.. Wheelock
peddled them to the people through
the columns of the Minneapolis Trib-
une.-Virginia Enterprise.

Poor management?
The state is borrowing money again
to pay current expenses. the revenue
fund having been exhausted. This
year the banks are charging five per
cent. It is very poor management
with our immense resources, and no
private business could stand such an
unnecessary expense. A radical
change should be inaugurated by the
next legislature, stopping this big
leak In the treasury.-Hastings
Gazette.
The Senatorial Combine in the Saddle.
The republican senatorial machine is
the only piece of machinery in the
republican party that is in running
order, and it is not surprising that
the men who manage it should seek to
control the situation so suddenly
created by the death of Governor
Johnson. But if Governor Eberhart
allows his grist to fall into the
hopper of that mill he may be sure
that the toll that will be taken will not
be light.-St. Paul Dispatch.
Halsted Wants Peace and Harmony
Some of the democratic papers of
the state are again resorting to their
usual tactics of endeavoring to stir up
.dissension in the republican party. It
would no doubt afford them a great
deal of satisfaction if there was
really "a tornado brewing in the re.
publican camp" as they intimate, but
the republican party, in this state has
had it's lesson and it isn't going to get
into the same tangle soon again. The
fair weather signal flag is flying over
the republican hosts in the gopher
state. .-Brainerd Tribune.

Corn Coming to the Front.
The third annual corn contest and
exhibit which was held at Detroit,
Becker county, last week, was an
interesting event and shows that corn
growing is bound to be extensively
engaged in by our farmers in the near
future. There were over fifty exhibi-
tors and the corn shown was ex-
ceptionally good. In fact it could
not be beaten anywhere. Prof. Rand
lett, the North Dakota expert, who
made the awards of prizes, had a
difficult task in choosing between the
excellent samples. Mr.. .Randlett
says the Minnesota 1872 is the best
for this untry.-Norman County
