threshing in North Dakota this tall,
returned to Warren yesterda LAY.
3. Il. Dixon cried an auction sale
onsthe Oscar Hedman farm south OF |
Alvarado, near North Hand, yester-
day.
MI. II. 2. Tatro recently purchas-
ed from the Marshall County Land
Co. fine 240 acre farm in F'oldahl
township and will locate perma-
nently thereon. Mr.. Tatro thus be-
comes the owner of the land known
as the Hougen farm, located on|
Middle River. Mr.. Tatro is an old
settler in this locality and after
looking over other districts decided
that there was nothing quite 50 good
as farm right here in Marshall
County where lands are still very
cheap and crops reasonably certain
every year. II.
Mr.. 0. Ferguson, successful
farmer of Lac Qui Parle Co., Mimi,
was here last week and under the
guidance Of r. C. MatlhWig of the
Marshall County Land Co., secured
an option on a half section farm in
Bristlet township. He expects to
locate here just as soon as he has
disposed Of his holdings in the
southern part of the state and was
greatly surprised at the many OPP.
portunities in northern MIMI, par.
Eticularly. in Marshall county. Here
is hoping that Mr.. Ferguson will
soon become a citizen of our county
and enjoy. with us the many advan--
tages that northern Minnesota so
generously offers to men from the
states where lands are held at pro-
4 hibitory prices. ~
p. M. Powell reports a very salts
i factory sale at the Cloverdale farm

over $4,000. Mr.. Powell and fami-
:. " will return to Illinois fro j
whence they came about three
years ago, and where they still have
| extensive property interests. Thu
removal of this excellent family is a
great loss Ito the neighborhood in
which they have lived and where
they have during their short stay
taken very active interest in soci-
al affairs and in everything else tina
tended to build up a.. happy AM
prosperous farming community. Mr.
! Powell, however, will not dispose o
$ his farm here, SO that in case tn

THE ElIRERT PICNIC

There were acres of people at the
Filbert picnic today. They came from
all parts of the county and from all
over the state, and their number Is va
riously estimated from $500 up to
1000. In the opinion Of the repre-
sentative Of The Enquirer there was
certainly not less than 5000, and al
though more or less informed people
differed in their judgment, it seems
fair to say that in point Of attendance
1t was easily the greatest picnic that
Filbert has ever had.
1t was the general expectation
throughout the state that there would
be sensational political developments;
but nothing broke loose. The various
speakers, all presumed candidates for
governor, except Gov. Blease. who is
candidate for the United States senate,
devoted themselves to the single object
OF making the most favorable i'm
preston possible upon the big audi
ence, without reference to other can
didates. The audience, nearly half
Of which was composed Of women and
children, gave close and interested at
tention. There was absolutely no
disorder. and the day was generally
enjoyed by everybody.
There had been some hints OF a pos

SOMETHING OF A RAIN

After weeks of drought, relieved only
occasionally by slight showers that
were hardly more than sufficient to lay
the dust. Yorkville got a good soaking
rain last Tuesday night, that not only
brought belated relief to the parching
gardens and fed crops, but materially
improved the conditions Of existence,
generally. s.,..... t.-
There was a good preparatory show
er Tuesday afternoon. 1t fell gently.
aid the dust and cooled the atmosphere
somewhat; but that was about all.
The sure enough rain commenced at
about IL O'clock Tuesday night. First
there came q stiff breeze that rapidly
''trengthened into a gale, accompanied
by thunder and lightning. Then came
the rain. dri2z.e, that developed into
sheets and torrents and finally into q
steady downpour. The electrical dis
play was extraordinarily grand and
ma magnif1cent, and for more than an hour
the thunder went through all the vari-
ations Of rattling, rolling and crashing
in way that would put the din of an
ordinary artillery battle to shame.
The rain lasted for close to an hour,
washing the trash from the streets and
Fl ling the cutters to their brims. In
fact many cutters were overflowed and
the whole surface Of the earth was
flooded. While there has been no ac7
cnrate measure Of the amount of rain
that fell during the hour that 1t lasted,
ii must have been close to a full inch.
Blt 1t was just what was needed, and
so far as information has been receive
cd. no damage has been done.

The senate has been having a full
discussion of the Diggs- -Caminetti case
this week and the documents that have
been made public and printed in the
Congressional Record. make it truly a
horrible affair. Diggs and Caminetti
are a pair of scoundrels of the first or
der and there Is plenty of presump-
ton, If not actual evidence, that they
were depending upon political influence
and intrigue to get themselves out OF
scrape for which they seem to de-
serve the severest punishment. 1t ap-
pears that Attorney General Mercy
go on with the prosecution: and that
he afterward had the case postponed.
1t is because of this that McNab fred
i'm his resignation. On the face of the
case, McNab was fully justified in his
course, and we are not certain that he
is not justified anyhow. The attorney
general, however, explains that he
postponed the hearing solely at the in
stance of Secretary Wilson. because the
pubic service seemed to require the
presence of Caminetti's father in
Washington at the time the case was
to have been tried. The attorney gen.
eral admits the shocking nature of the
case, and the Importance of an imme-
diate trial: but claims that McNab
should have given him quiet confiden-
tial information as to local conditions
before sending in his resignation, in
which case he says he would have no
doubt refused postponement. Ho also
biames McNab for giving the facts out
to the public so precipitate!y. That
McNab may have been actuated by a
desire TO get political advantage is
quite plausible; but nevertheless the
case is one that should not have been
postponed, and no matter what the
final disposition of it. the besmirching
that attaches to McReynolds and Sec
retary Wilson will be removed only
with difficulty.

The idea is too horrible for really
good citizen to absorb; but neverthe-
less we feel many bloody war has
been precipitated merely in order to
distract attention from the selfish de-
signs of individuals. The principle is
exactly the same as that which Is so
familiar even to the most common
place people under which they turn
conversation to the weather to keep 1t
off more personal matters they desire to
avoid. There is not much else to all
this talk of war with Mexico; but of
course there are scores of preteXts un-
der which a respectable minority If
not an actual majority of the country,
can be worked up to belief that such
a war would be a sacred duty.

Republican senate leaders have de-
clared that so long as the Democrats
insist on currency legislation, they will;
take their time with regard to the tar
lff bill. This is about in accordance
with what we have suspected all the
while. The Republicans would be glad
to let the Democrats do whatever they
desire with the tariff If they viii only
let the currency bill alone, because
with the currency system as 1t stands,
the people who have all along been in
the saddle will be abe to stay there,
regardless of changes in the tariff
laws. On the other hand we are of
opinion that the currency laws can be
so arranged that whether the tariff be
on protection, revenue only, or virtual
free trade basis, the economic differ
ence will be almost nil. We,

Our idea of promoting the common
good is that the strong should help the
weak in every possible way, and all
should make common cause against
those who conduct themselves in such
way as to give the impression that
they believe that everything that is
worth while was made for their special
benefit, to the exclusion Of folks who
have too much decency to calm things
that are not properly theirs. The man
or woman who creates values or bene-
fits as the result of his or her labor Is
the most useful citizen, and the man or
woman who selfishly appropriates the
proceeds Of another's toll without CIV
ing or trying to give value received is
altogether useless. % ..t,a

Out Programme at Bethany.

Correspondence The Yorkviiie Enquirer
Bethany, July 30-The York County
Sabbath Schoo! Convention of the A
r. p church, met here today pursuant
to previous announcement, with full
representation Of Sunday school work
es in attendance, and carried out quite
an interesting and instructive pro-
gramme.
Major w. w. Boyce of Rock Hill.
was the first speaker of the day, and
he made a very interesting talk on the
grading of the Sabbath schools. He
had charts to describe the different
grades and to show how the work
should be carried on.
The next speaker was Mrs. j. H
Howard of Charlotte. She spoke Of
the work in the primary department,
and explained how the work in that de-
partment could be accomplished most
effectively, and describing the methods
used in her own Sunday school.
Rev. ]. l.. Oates made very force
chile talk on the whole church in the
Sabbath school. He said that In order
to get people to come to your church
and Sabbath school. you had 10 make
it worth their coming. He said that if
a man did q days work, and was sat-
istied with his pay. then 1t was worth
his time. He contended that no min
lister or Sunday school teacher had any
moral right to ask a man to come to
his church, or school unless they made
ii worth his time. In order to succeed
in this work you must go out after the
people and give them something worth
while.
Mrs. ]. w. Carson Of Newberry,
spoke about the work in the home de-
partment of the Sabbath school, and
told why every church should have

Mexico Is probably the richest land
under the sun. There Is no country In
which 1t is easier to make living. and
no country in which there is more ma
terial wealth. But throughout the en-
tire recorded history of the country
dating back to a period before the COM
ing Of Cortez even. the masses Of the
people have been downtrodden and op-
pressed. Human life has always been
cheap in Mexico. and there has been no
material improvement in this regard.
