button of books 26 days during
April.
Total circulation 721 volumes, a
daily average of % books, of which
10 per cent. were non fiction and AZ
per cent juvenile. Teachers circu-
lation for school use, 80 books. There
were 261 adult readers, 173 juvenile,
and rs reference readers, making a
total of 460, which is a good attend
ance for this time of year. There
were five new registrations, includ-
ing one from the country. S4.61
was collected for fines during the
month.
Anyone interested in agriculture
will find a number of the year books
here, also bulletins and ANNALS from
the Experiment Station and Farm
ers' Institute. These books are for
circulation.
Another travelling library just re-
ceived, which will furnish some more
new reading matter.
Mrs. Nina Payne of this city has
kindly loaned the library her collec-
ton Of post cards showing views of
foreign countries and of Mexico and
California. These cards were re-

Foolish Law Makes Trouble.

Dairy Inspector Slater of St.
James made himself DECIDEDLY
unpopular in this city last week
while collecting for licenses from all
he could find had been selling milk
to their neighbors or others. The
law as it stands ought to be re-
pealed all right, and Mr.. Slater ad-
mits that this is very likely to hap
pen two years hence, but in the
meanwhile it is up to the state O fl
Gals to enforce the law. We are in
formed that dairy Commissioner
French recommended that the law
be changed so to apply only to dairy
men making deliveries from a
wagon. but the lawmakers cut out
all exceptions. SO that a family sell
ing the surplus milk from one cow
has to pay the same as the owner of
hundred cows. The law is med
dle-some one, even though the pro-
ceeds do go into the road and bridge
fund. From the standpoint of the
inspector, however, his duty is to
make no discrimination in collecting
for the licenses.

ly appreciated by those present. The
talented young man is humorous
and witty enough to be entertaining
at all stages Of his address, and his
lecture helps to dispel some notions
entertained by many as to the at
titude of the japanese people as a
whole toward America and kindred
nations. Mr.. Inui argued with con-
siderable earnestness that the hostile
expressions quoted from certain
japanese journals are to be given
the same weight as the lingo utter
ances of certain sensational yellow
journals on this side of the Pacific.
and no more. Japan has plenty of
problems to meet at home without
seeking foreign war or foreign
field to exploit her enterprises. The
lecturer showed himself capable of
flights of genuine eloquence in the
course of his address.

Citizenship and Law Enforcement.

The w. C. T. U. met in the par
lors of the M. E. church last Thurs
day afternoon. After the opening
of the meeting by the president,
Mrs. R. E. Fuller took charge as
leader, representing her department
of work, Christian Citizenship and
Law Enforcement.
Excerpts from a remarkable ad-
dress by Lincoln were read. He
seems to have foreseen such a stu
alton as exists today in connection
with saloons which are a defiantly
multiplying law, when he declared
that the approach of the national
danger IF it ever reach us, must
spring up amongst US, it cannot
come from abroad. If destruction
be our lot we must ourselves be its
author and finisher, As nation of
freemen we must live through all
time or die by suicide.

Comrade Bell of the G.. A. R. dec

lures for memorial day and decora-
ton day, which last is to be celebra-
ted on Monday, the 31st. Rev. E.
V. Dubois has accepted the invita-
ton to preach the sermon on me-
mortal Sunday, May Goth, which
service is to be held at the usual
hour, in the Christian church. The

body as usual, and there will be ap-
propriate special music and decora-

opening prayer at the church, which
will be followed by special music and
the reading of Lincoln's Gettysburg

ton Miss Lucy Fisk will recite a
patriotic reading and after the sing
ing of America by the audience, the
service will conclude with the bene-
diction by Rev. S. M. Smith.

Base Ball Booming.

"Pv Lands" the name which the
local base ball team will carry
THROUGH the season, played two games
this last week which were indicators
of a successful season for the team.
Thursday the boys drove to Vesta
where they played a game with the
local team and pulled out victory
by score of to g The boys were
we'll treated and will play a return
game with Vesta on the local
grounds.
Sunday noon the management
took the team down to Sleepy Eye
where game was played with the
Regulars of that city, and were de-
feated A to by reason of a few err
rors made undoubtedly by reason of
lack Of practice on the part Of those
responsible. Dutch" Francois
pitched two-hit game for the locals
while our boys got seven hits off
Lefty" Marsh, the famous St.
Thomas pitcher, who threw the
game for Sleepy Eye. Thompson
and Dietz, who are new members of
the Pv's assembly, are deserving of
a good deal Of credit and particular
mention for their work in the game.
The band went with the boys and
all report a good time and fine
treatment on the trip.
The local boys have played three
games this season and are working
out in fine shape, but the manage
ment is arranging to bolster up a
few weak spots which, when COM
pleted, will give Redwood fast and
furious band of tossers.
Dutch" is in good form this sea
son and with the assistance of Mayor
Philbrick. will attempt to defeat
the Mankato Maroons at the dedi-
cation Of the new park on the 10th.

existence of the nation Mr.. Lincoln
said: 1.-The question seems, how
shall we fortify against it? The
answer is simple-let every Ameri-
can lover of liberty, every well wish
err to his posterity, swear by the
blood of the Revolution never to vi
olate in the least particular the laws
of the country and never to tolerate
their violation. Let reverence for
the laws be breathed by every
American mother to the lisping
babe that prattles at her feet; let
it be taught in the seminaries and in
colleges. Let it be preached from
pulpit, proclaimed in legislative halls
and enforced in courts of justice a nd
let old and young, the rich and poor.
the grave and gay of all sexes and
tongues and colors and conditions.
sacrifice increasingly upon its affairs.
While every state of feeling such as
this shall universally or even very
generally prevail throughout the
nation. vain will be every effort and
fruitless every attempt to subvert
our national freedom"
Had Mr.. Lincoln been as unfaith-
full to his oath as are the mayor of
Chicago and other officials in their
subservience to the saloon, the south
would have been permitted to secede
and we should have been divided
country.
A very interesting article on Indi-
vidual Responsibility for Law En-
forcement was read by Mrs. A. E.
King, showing the need of creating
public sentiment along this line and
educating the people in regard to
their responsibility in seeing that
the laws are enforced. 1t should be
considered as personal privilege as
we'll as duty to commend officials
who do their duty without fear or
favor. Those who oppose law en-
forcement make it known and do
not fail to register your disapproval
at the ballot box. where it counts.
! At the close of the program, Rev.
Mr.. Taylor gave a short talk on
Rescue Work.

Money Should Be Working.

There are two ways of looking at
the matter of having big balances in
local banks. While some of our ex-
changes are inclined to boast of the
large amount of time deposits in the
banks of their towns. the Granite
Falls Tribune thinks that large de-
posits do not necessarily mean
enterprise. AS a matter Of fact,
our up the river neighbor has con-
siderably larger deposits than Red
wood Falls, and the Tribune's com
ment on their bank deposits is, Lots
of money tied up in the bank that
should be working" And we take it
as an undoubted fact that the reason
the banking capital of this city is not
as large as is that of some of it's
neighbors of the same class, is that
our business men and farmers can
earn better than four per cent with
their surplus money. Redwood
county real estate is, in our opinion,
earning better than four per cent,
for all who own it, in the way of in
crease in valuation.

cursion Friday afternoon.
Miss Casey and Miss Brewer of
Franklin visited several grades last
week.
Miss Haws, 4th grade teacher of
Fairfax, spent Sunday with Miss

will soon be broken.
Nearly all the grades enjoyed the
quarter holiday last Friday, on &C.
count of perfect attendance.
The ancient history class took
their final last week and will devote
their extra time to other subjects.
The seniors each wrote a class
song this year and entered into a
contest. Ellen Lyman's song was
chosen as the best.
Mr.. Rankin, formerly state grade
school Inspector and now a member
of the U. of M. faculty, gave the
H. S. an excellent talk last Tuesday
morning.
The botany and the geology classes
followed the river to North Red
wood Tuesday. School was dis
missed in the afternoon and the
classes spent a profitable as we'll as
a delightful afternoon.
The fire gong rang last Wednes-
day afternoon and the pupils filed
out of the building. The alarm was
Of course false. Nevertheless we
cooled off a little and got out OF

TOP STEERS BROUGHT s6.35.
Douglas Allen Markets Good Stuff
Fed at GiIfiIlan, MINI.
South ST. Paul Reporter:

South ST. Paul Reporter:
Douglas Allen of Gillfllan, Red
wood county. Mimi. marketed a
bunch of steers of his own feeding
today which made the top for the
day and the highest point registered
since last spring at about this time.
In the consignment were 10 steers
which averaged 1885 which sold at
$685.. Two cows averaging 1880
were sold at $5.S5 and the balance,
half dozen cows averaging 1885,
went over at SIS. 35. The cattle were
shorthorns and we'll bred. They
were some that Mr.. Allen raised
and fed himself. The steers were
mostly two year olds.
Mr.. Allen is an experienced feed
er. He is a native Of Scotland,
which, while not necessary Qualifi-
cation for a cattle feeder, is very
often an indication of capacity. In
his native land he was often engaged
in fitting cattle for show purposes
and since coming to America he has
turned his knowledge and experience
to commercial use.
That cattle can be raised and fat
tened in Minnesota which will bring
a high price on any market is shown
by this sale.

How about the cemetery next
Decoration Day? Many citizens
spare no pains to keep the family plot
in good shape for that occasion but
there should be some systematic ar
rangement to have the nonresident
or Indifferent relatives Of the silent
citizens who occupy the cemetery
employ some one to help make this
resting place of the dead presentable
for once in the year at least. Every
year it becomes more and more ap-
parent that the cemetery should be in
charge of some organization to keep
the place trimmed and cleaned up.
