S. E. Turner. of this city received
a letter last week from S. L. Hill of
McGregor, Minnesota, in which ! he
states that he and his family are
greatly pleased with their new home
in the neighbcring state, and that
crop conditions are fine. Mr. Hill
wants to correct a report which was
circulated here to the effect that the
country in which he now. lives has
been drowned out and that crops
had been ruined. In his letter he
stated that this is not so. While
they had more rain than was neces-
sary for some crops, on the whole,
everything is doing nicely. Mr..
Hill formerly resided near the Lind

and traded his farm there for a large
tract of land in the vicinity of Nc

friends will be pleased to learn that
he is pleased with his new home,

INVESTIGATE.

Investigate the activities OF the
business group pecuniarily inter
ested in increased appropriations
for army and navy, which has
become SO active in pushing its
selfish demands. Congress ought
at once to appoint a committee
! to investigate. 1t is more than
a lobby. It is a concerted attempt
to misinform the whole nation
with a view to the securing Of {,
enormous profits at the expense
of the taxpayers. Publicity is the
surest weapon with which to meet
an evil OF this kind. Let the peo. j
pie once know the real motive
back Of this movement for pre-
I sparedness and 1t can not succeed. /
Exposure will kill It. Turn on
the light and let the country see
the fraudulent character OF the
pretended patriotism which is
now being paraded before the

! perior attachment to the nation,
but are in fact nothing but para
sites and leeches. The insesti-
