A silver trophy valued at 81, 500 will
be awarded the farmer who exhibits
the best peck Of wheat at the state
fair, but there is string attached to
it-he will have to win it three years
in succession before it becomes his
property. We do not take kindly to
premiums with strings attached,
neither do the farmers. It would have
been far better lad the fair manage
ment divided the amount the trophy
is said to have cost into two or three
cash premiums, or it could have
offered two or three trophies to be-
come the property of the winners in
a single contest. There is very small
chance of a farmer winning three
years in succession a trophy such as
that offered for the best peck of wheat.
The inclination of the judges would
be to pass it around even though the
holder of the trophy should have the
best exhibit. Then, again, the judges
are changed from year to year, and
experts of one year differ from ex-
perts of another-there is as much
difference in the decisions of experts
as there is in the opinions of Attor-
ney General Simpson. The fair man
agement will find that awards with
strings on them will not appeal very
strongly to the farmers. ,..

A government expert will come |

A government expert will come to
Minnesota to aid the state officials
in conducting a campaign for a pure
milk supply. A crusade of this sort
should prove of great benefit so far
as the public health is concerned. For
instance, it should have the effect of
decreasing tuberculosis in infants,
impure cows milk being largely re-
sponsible, according to medical
authorities, for it's prevalence. One
of the main objects desired by the
government agricultural department
is to secure uniform system of milk
legislation and inspection throughout
the country. The campaign for pure
milk supply is movement that should
be encouraged.

1.-The president of the NationalAs-
ISOLATION OF Master Bakers, "says the
Minneapolis Journal, declares that
home baking must cease, that it can
not compete with the modern, sanitary
bakery for flavor or healthfulness. {"
If alum and ammonia impart an
agreeable flavor to bread and are
conducive to healthfulness then no
one is apt to dispute the presidents
assertion.

the 5000 Scandinavians who disap-

century? Who knows?

"Progressive" Moses and His Buncomb
be encouraged

"Frosresslve' Moses and His BuncOmbe.
According to the printed speech OF
Hon. Moses E. Clapp just received,
it is recorded that he rose in his place
in the United States senate, stretched
forth his hands and declared that she
believed it would be abominable, in
iquitous, unjust, and violative of the
spirit OF free government for US, by
the mere brutal force of votes and
numbers to say to the people OF
Arizona you shall not have a con-
stitution unless you frame it accord
ing to our views and Judgment. -
We can fancy we hear the sonorous
voice, and see the waving of his
shaggy locks as he delivered himself
of the above buncombe. If it is right
that there should be no restrictions
upon a states constitution other than
the state Itself cares to impose what
is the use of the United States senate
and central government? Why not
let the states do the governing and
cut off the central power? Carried to
its logical conclusion the precinct
would be, the proper governmental
power, and any interference by ward,
city, township, county or state would
be "abominable, Ubiquitous, unjust, -
etc. 1t is strange what foolish things
men who have reached high places
will say!-West st. Paul Times.

Girls Nearly Scared to Death

John Kaliher of Blue Hill tells US
that his daughter and another girl
visiting her were almost frightened
into Mysteries last week while on their
way home from the hay field, where
they had been with luncheon for the
men working there. They we're driv-
ing leisurely along the road when
from some distance in the rear came a
shout which almost paralyzed them
with fright. Looking back they saw
two men in a vehicle, yelling at the
top of their voices, pursuing them.
Naturally supposing the fellows we're
drunk, and fearing harm, the little
girls-they are only - or IA years
old-whipped up their horses and
kept in the lead. Having better
horses than the men, they soon out
distanced them, but the fellows con-
tinued to follow and yell. After driv-
ing at gallop for a mile or more the
girls crossed a meadow towards some
men who we're haying on the other
side OF the river. Hitching their
horses they waded the stream and
tremblingly told the men that two
drunkards we're pursuing them. By
this time the fellows had reached the
place where the horses we're tied and
were engaged in pulling everything
out OF the girls wagon and scattering
it on the ground. One of the hay
makers crossed the stream to ascer-
tain the reason for such peculiar pro-
cedure and then discovered that the
fellows we're deputy gamewarden
and another man looking for prairie
chickens. The warden said he had
heard shots in the direction from
which the girls came and was of
opinion that they we're carrying home
the game.
The gamewarden seemingly let his
sense of duty run away with his
reason. Had he considered the con-
sequences liable to result from his
action he probably would not have
pursued such a course. A man has
no excuse, whether he be game
warden clothed with the majesty of
the law or not, for resorting to such
tactics.
Mr.. Kaliher says that the girls we're
almost Frustrated when they arrived
home and that they have not yet fully
recovered from the shock. He also
says that the people of Blue Hill are
very indignant and much wrought up
over the incident.

Room for Them All

Six families passed through this
village Sunday bound for Mile Laos
lake. They left Kansas in June and
have travelled the entire distance by
team. The failure of crops in that
state was their reason for leaving.
They claim there are six hundred
teams on the road from that state
bound for Minnesota. They seemed
to be very we'll pleased with this part
of the country and no doubt will make
their future homes in Mile Laos.
