Engine 1880, and seven freight cars
Of train No. 400 which were coming
out Of St. Paul, west bound, went in
to the ditch at Hamline transfer last
Saturday. The train was following d
switch engine and the derail was
thrown over after the engine had
passed the block. 1880 turned over
on it's side, and several of the cars
fell onto the passenger tracks, which,
at that place, run close to the freight
tracks. The result was delay for
all the passenger trains running thru
that section. Neither engineer or fire.

COMBINATION WILL HELP.

The Wilmar Tribune and the
Minneapolis Journal are having a con-
troversy over the primary. The lat
ter advocates a change, going back
partially to the convention system.
The Telegram cannot agree with
the Tribune that the present primary
is satisfactory. 1t is all right for
county officers but should be supple
mented by convention for choosing
state office nominees, the convention
delegates to be chosen by the peo-
pie. The direct election of state or
national officers will probably never
be successful, not because the PEG.
pie are not competent to choose, but
because they will not take the time
and trouble to inform themselves as
to candidates, which it is often very
difficult to do anyway. This combi-
nation would be a forward step and
would eliminate several obvious OBJ
jecttons to the present system, in our
acknowledgements Telegram.
The kilograms opinion as express.
ed might have had more weight if
the editor would have deigned to en-
umerate the several obvious objec-
tons" that exist to the present sys.
tenn.
The Willmar Tribune has never up
held the present primary as an ideal
law. But when we consider the in.
terests that are opposed to the un.
DERIVING principle of the same, it Is
really a wonder that so much pro.
gress was made in framing it, as was
done. The defects, in our opinion
however, are the evident attempts to
force the direct nominations idea fit
into the old order of party organiza.
ton. Party fealty should be entirely
voluntary as it is in practice becom.
ing to be. Nobody nowadays, who
has any regard for principle or con-
sistency, says unequivocably, II be.
long to--Party," without caring
for what men are in control of the
organization or what principles the
party will enunciate. It is through
the control of the legal organization
WQ3x0 TIC mASCulSl LII Jul pIcSVAl
system can be worked by selfish or
INSCRIPTIONS leaders.
The remedy is to 90 the full length
and give no legal franchise to any set

dependent upon their own ability to
serve the people and maintain popular
allegiance to their organizations in
my way they choose, but give them
no recognition at law, except by plac

Jof that reason we can never hope

Anderson Land Co. In Big Deals.

Last week the Anderson Land Co.
closed one of the biggest deals ever
pulled off in this section. They sold
the section near Raymond, known as

$40 acres, for $4,000. The same day
they disposed Of 4S0 acres, near Kerk-
hoven for $4,000, making a total Of
$135, 900 involved in deals made in one
day: The purchasers were Iowa par
