HIGH SCHOOL CAMPUS GROUNDS.

The people of Minnesota began to
develop their civilization fifteen 70
twenty years later than did the people
of Iowa but they had among them the
leaven Of Scandinavian history which
is the history Of an intelligent race
which has not been afraid to project
things that are new and try them out
on their theoretical merits Seldom
co YOU find standpatter among the
Scandinavians. Because of this spirit
of an enlightened progress the people
OF Owatonna have recently voted to
purchase tract OF twelve acres on
which to erect their high school

grouped about the high school at
Owatonna as beautiful college cam

Charles s. Mellen, late president OF
the Hartford & New Haven railroad
closed a gloomy tale on the witness
stand by suggesting government
ownership Of railroads as the only re-
lief. The public is not calling on MT
Mellen for his opinion. Simply because
his railroad robbed the stockholders
and the public is no reason why the Ell
fort to discover honest men should De

HARD T1MEs-IN CANADA.

4
For the edjf1cation OF those who In
sist that the present tariff has literary
play hob with industries and argricus-
ture we print the following from the
news columns Of a Boston newspaper:
Trade is rapidly declining. lmrni-
grants vamoose as fast as others come
in The unemployed continue numer-
Gus. Western farmers denied the hu-
man right of selling their grains In
neighboring states. are in mood not
far from the insurrectionary. Many
great plants are smut down"
But we should add this piece Of news
is from Ottawa. Canada. and pictures
the conditions that exist there rather
than the conditions that exist in this
country. Yet Canada was the one
country which the tariff standpatters
assured us would wax fat in event our
extortionate schedules We're reduced. 1t
MAS to Canada with its cheap land,
that our American farmers would flock
and proceed to get rich shipping his
products back TO this country under
low tariff. 1t was to Canada-even to
Ottawa, the future Canadian Pitts
bureh,-that our factories would hur-
nv in order to clinch their control OF
this market
Judging from the above news dis
patch from Ottawa. what Canada
wants us to do is build another Chinese
wall around our factories and agri-
cural pursuits-which will keep us
inside, and the world outside. Then
our enterprising agriculturalists would
move across the boundry line in order
to secure freedom.
