Official Paper o/tha County. A.. P. MILT.fSn, Conor ami Proprietor, Term* Sa.coa Year,$1.00for Six Months. TETTT4SDAY. FEBRUARY 8. 1883. THE xVA ir SEXATOlt. The Senatorial agony ended on Thurs day afternoon last by the election of Hun. D. M. Sabin, of Stillwater, on the seventh ballot. When the break up came. Senator Crosby and Representa tive Johnson of this district went over to Sabin. The Democrats also went ovcy almost in a body, nine Senators and nineteen Representatives voting for Sa bin. And who is Sabisi? lie is a promi nent business man, of Stillwater, a member of the firm of Seymour, Sabin & Co., manufacturers of threshing ma chines. Mr. Sabin also heads the car works recently established at Stillwa fer, and has an interest a number of other entet prises. lie is best known to the people of the State as the gentle man who owns and controls the Min nesota State prison. He is largely in terested also in pine lauds and other timber lands. Mr. Sabin is a man of superior busi ness ability and is personally popular with all classes and parties. As to statesmanship, we never heard Mr. S. charged witli that. Certainly all thv main objections urged against Windom apply with equal 'ice to Sabin. The feature which will most displease the people of the State at large is that the central ring lias again triumphed, and the rest of the State is left out in the cold. St. L'aul, Minneapolis and Stillwater arc virtually one city, and the leading men are interwoven in scores of jobs and enterprises, which make it desirable to control the Sena tors and Representatives from Minnes ota. Th^v now have both Senators, and we shall probably see few votes cast which are not in the interest of the mottled classes. Mr. SabiiTs record so far is as open to the charge of "boss ism," "riugiHin" and ''monopolyas any man's in the SiaM*. and we shall be agreeably disappointed if lie should rise superior to lii.s record and surprise the people with a display of statesman ship. THE Mil. \VA UK EE. A contractor who conierred recently Willi the Milwaukee llit inis snys that it is lie li.u lu the ii!paiiy to luiiid 5U0 in lies if rad during the cum ing sesnson. As the 3 ilwitukee lias now i»i i.u iy ei'ii'i i» 5ii wmk this to lie built can he placed around where it will do the niffct good.—Houx City Jour nal. i?y continuing its lii-e from Estlier vilie to .J KI.MII« the .Milwaukee will shorten the route to Chicago fur Dako ta freight 44 miles, and we may reason ably conclude that this will he some of tie track tiiat "will do the most good." —.Jackson Republic. The Milwaukee abandoned its Esth CMville grade when the Kuililigtou started for Spirit I.ake and AVorthing ton, and began grading a jut off from Spencer to Spirit Lake and NVorthing to:i. The uiade is now within three miles of Spii ii, Lake and when spring opens it will be pushed through to Worihingfon and on la Pipestone or ?orne point northwest on tl Southern Minnesota. 17,0I,0 BUSHELS. Mr. Kendall tells us that the exact siuionnt of imnihy seed he raised this I ear was 17,t)(Hi buslx Is, by weight. His rstimated amount before threshing was 2u.(!i)() bushels. Tiie entire amount has been shipped to Chicago. This is prob ably the largest amount of timothy seed ever raised by one firm or one man in the world, in one year, and Mr. Kendall is still in rec ipt of letters from all parts of the United States, from parties who read our notice about the great yield in the fall, copied in other papers, asking if it is true that he had such a crop. His timothy crop has given Southwestern Minnesota a greater boom than any other one t'ling, except the dairy interest. This proves that we can raise a staple crop, and while we make no pretentions about wheat we last year raised from 20 to 25 bushels per acre.— "NVindom Reporter. And the imothy seed raised in Southwestern Minnesota is the best in the market. We recently published the fact chat T. II. Parsons had shipped a car load of his Nobles county seed to Boston and it was pronounced the best ever received in that market. This is the paradise of both tame and wild grasses. Christian Geology: The acrobatic and spasmodic Talmage said in a re cent sermon, "'there is no contradiction between the Mosaic account and Chris tian geoloey." Christian geology is good. Talmage and his class of preach ers want a "Christian science," that is an orthodox science. Nature will fur nish one set of facts and the orthodox preachers will furnish another set :ut of their view of the bible. If the Bible theory does not agree with what Na ture's God has established, so much the worse lor the (4od of Nature, says Tal mage. The God of Orthodoxy must stand though the God of Nature fall, say these Talmagean theologians. .We shall have, two setts of schools, owe teaching "Christian science." and an other teaching Nature's science, or the laws of Nature. Talmage should have said "theological geology." Let us al so have theological chemistry, theolog ical astronomy, theological mathemat. ics, and then let us relapse into the Dark Ages. I it' Worth Remembering -Now that good times aro again upon us. it is worth re membering that no one can enjoy the pleasantest surroundings if in bad health. There are hundreds of misera ble people going about to-day with dis ordered stomach, liver or kidneys, when a bottle of Parker's Ginger Tonic would do them more good than all the medi cines they have ever tried. The Luverne Herald "runs" local advertisements of Whiskey, wine, beer and alcohol in its local news columns which gives it an individuality which few papers would court.—Jackson Re public. Still, the Herald is "solid" with the church and keeps "pecking" at the AD VANCE for showing up big«try and hy pocricy. KEXXETH LA MA It. Ontonagon (Mich.) Herald.—Rep. Will H. ivernan, the fire-eating po litical writer, has attained a notoriety not at all enviable. Manv people seem to entertain a real hatred for him be cause of his extravagant utterauces through the papers with which he has been connected. But what does his po litical extravaganzas amount to? They amount to just what other people and other papers make of thein, and noth ing more. Will II. Kernan,personally, as a political writer, is simply a gro tesque figure in American journal ism. He is a poet, struggling at the impossible task of chaining his muse down to politics, and those who do not comprehend his genius, or will not ad mit lie has any, look upon him as a f.iol or denounce him as a knave. lie is neither. With the exception of Edgar Poe, no American poet ever wrote with more divine afflatus than he, and just s« soon as he drops politics and con fines himself to poetry, he will cease to be notorious and will rapidly bucome famous. He is already acquiring fame RS a poet-, Jis 4f?usi«tin nonnHjr rtji|i«ii ing under the non de plume of Kenneth Lamar. As a political writer we have no sympathy nor admiration for him, but we are willing to forgive Will II. Kernan almost anything for the sake of Kenneth Lan sir. The editor af the Herald evidently has the taste to appreciate and enjoy genuine poetry, but he writes as a par tizan and judges Kernan's prose from a pit ty stand-point. We only wish there were a thousand Will Kernans and Brick Pomeroys at the head of newspapers to denounce in plain lan guage the corruption and cowardice of political parties, the hypocricy and bigotry of the churches, the shams, in justice and toad ism of society. Ker nan, like any other true poet, sees at a glance the false and the wrong in our American life, and while we do not al ways agree with him nor approve of his spasm »di'^ style, we "glory in his spunk." We want him to help tear down the false by his prose and build up the true by his poetry. As a poet, he comes nearer being a second edition, of Poe than any other writer that has ever lived, and we can assure him that Edgar A. Poe's spirit lias a hand ou Ivernan's genius and in iy produce other and hotter ''Ra vens" than he did while in the flesh. COMIXO TO jt. Some years ago the ADVANCE: threw its columns open to all shades of relig ious, social, political and scieutiiic thought and invited communications. It especially held that the great spirit ual movement was entitled to a hear ing as well as all other great move ments. It seemed unjust in the press to give column alter column everyday and every week to the sermons and the »ings of tie churches and ignore the spiritual and other movements. Tiiis we iterated and reiterated in defend ing the ADVANCE from the attacks of timid and bigoted people. The ADVANCE was amor.g the first papers to adopt this course. Ony by one the secular papers are coming to it and now there are scores of them giv ing a hearing to liberal movements in cluding Spiritualism. The latest to which our attention has been called is the Indianapolis Su.i, which recently published a three-col umn report of a seance in that city. Tiie Sun says it is "surprised at the number who expressed a belief" in the spiritual theory, and expresses tiie opinion that it is the "duty" of tiie press to giye it a hearing. It will con tinue to publish articles on the subject and says: "The object of the Sun, in the series of articles which will appear in its col umns, is not to aigue pro or con., lut simply to fulfill its mission as a news paper, giving facts and phenomena as they present themselves to the reporter, believing that all things and all Mien are entitled to an unprejudiced hear ii and having no sympathy with those who would hide from the masses any thing which is not strictly in the liue of old theories and old ideas." TITE EPISCOPAL ClI ft Oil A SD PR O GitKSS. The ADVANCE gave some months aga an account of the remarkable dis cussion which took place in the Episco pal Convocation iu England upon the subject of Spiritualism, the drift of the opinion among the clergy being that Spiritualism could not be ignored and must be candidly investigated. More recently we mentioned a notable ser mon preached by an Episcopal clergy man iu Ohio and published in the Stan dard, Bishop Bedell's official organ, in which the speaker spoke brave and true •vords as to Spiritualism, saying that it must be candidly met and investi gated. And now comes a sermon by Rev. Dr. R. Ileber Newton, rector of one of the leading Episcopal churches of New York City, published in the Sun of Dec. SI, in which the Reverend gentle man says, "the old view of the Bible is fading upon the vision of our age." And he proceeds to tell his hearers what to reject and what to accept in this old Jewish record of a remarkably bloody, ignorant, brutal and super stitious people. As to the curse utter ed upou those who "shall take away from the words of this book," he called it an "impotent threat" and tells his hearers to "heed it not." Further: In a recent sermon on tne odious New York Sunday law, the Rev. Dr. Shipman, rector of Christ Church, N. Y., said: "There is a religious day of rest and a civil day of rest, but the State has no right to command people to keep the Sabb.ith as a religious Sunday. The two come on the same day, but the State has not adopted the Christian Sabbath—Only the day on which it falls. Church and Stat* must be kept apart, and the Sunday Leagues do not see tfiat their success would be a very dangerous precedent. We may believe that ope.iing museums, parks and read ing rooms on Sunday or having excur sions by boat and rail are wrong, but we have no right to ask the State to stop it." This is exactly, in so many words or less, what the ADVANCE said a month ago on this subject. If we were a shouting Methodist we should exclaim "glory" or words to that effect. The ignoramii have long condemned the ADVANCE for uttering sentiments which are beginning to be widely held and uttered by the clergy themselves. FLOODS. It is a little disagreeable to live in a country where January sometimes av erages z^ro and where we are liable to be without railroad trains for some days owing to snow blockades. But We renew our claim that Nobles county and vicinity, all things considered, is about the safest place on the continent. We are out of the trail of the violent cyclones which devastate the country south'«f us, and above the floods which inundate the vallies periodically. Pes tilence and earthquakes, rattlesnakes and tarantulas, are never thought of. We put in this reminder occasionally mid ic occurred to us to repeat it now, as the season of floods is I in States east and south of UK. The rivers of Ohio, Indiana, and Pennsylvania are on the rampage, owing to heavy rains, and millions of dollars worth of proper ty has been destroyed. Pittsburg, Cleveland, Akron, Columbus, Indian apolis, and scores of other towns have been more or less under water. Give us a blizzard and a blockade occasional ly in preference to 40 feet of water iy the channel and 10 to 15 in the base ment. A lilGHTEOCS JUDGE. Timothy Lucy, a young man, was re cently sent to the penitentiary from Shakopee for assaulting a man with a slung shot who was assisting the city nurshall to make an arrest. The judge legretted the necessity of sending so young a man to the penitentiary. The Counei's report says: He spoke of the lawless spirit mani fested bv so many young men, and the undeniable necessity for the law to as sert its power over them. The ADVANCE has never said more than this, though it has said it often, and in different ways. Young men who carry slung-shets, assault oilicers or citiz 'i s, or engage in malicious mis chief, should take warning. A BLOODY SCHOOL. A school tcncher in Guernsey county, Ohio, recently killed two hi* 8c,holurs who refused to obey the rules ami made an attack upon him They succeeded in breaking his nose, mas!.ing I.is lips and injuring his jaw, \V1I»MI he drew a dagger and killed t!i» both. Tiie ac counts of the bloody affair iy that the general sentiment or the neighborhood sustains the teacher. The story is tlii'sa-nic we have b» en familiar with for :io ysir*. except the killing. The "big boys," sons of prom inent parents, refuse to obey fan ruhs of the school and undertake to "lick the teacher." This is the old, old sto ry, familiar ail over the west. Now that there is a new st^le of teacher and a new method of dealing with the rowdyism which has been so common in rural districts eyer since we have known anything about schools, perhaps the big lubbers will be a little tuore Careful about "licking the teach er." DOES FA All MO 1'A Y. In answer to the question "Does farming pay?" the Worthington AD VANCE cites the fallowing ''Maurice O'liearn, of Grand Prairie, has kept an accurate account of Lis rec ipts and expenditures for the ist year. He and his son did most »d the work, and after deducting all outlay and counting in terest on the inve.-tmerit, they a"h made $90 a month wages for their year's work, or an average of §1S0 a month for the two." Of course, the experience of one No bles county farmer does not den on strate th« proposition that farming pays. There are probably other farm ers in that county who can't show an average of nine cents a month for their year's work. Nevertheless the solitary instance cited proves what may be done and that farming can be made to pny with proper management. Many who don't succeed at farming owe their failure in part to straightem circum stances and their consequent inability to work to advantage, but the great trouble lies in the fact that they iil to make the most of their opportunities. Successful farming requires as much technical knowledge and requires quite as much study and close figuring as the conduct of any other business. Not only manual labor but mental labor is required to get the most money out of farming. The business will pay and pay well if the best methods are em ployed and proper care and attention are given to the work.—Rock Co. Iler ald. What Everybody Wants.—Is a relia ble medicine that never does any harm :ind that prevents and cures disease by keeping tiie stomach iu order, the bow els regular, and the kidneys and liver active. Sue., a medicine is Parker's (linger Tonic. It relieves every case, and has cured thousands. See other column.—TribuiiP. HE HV1S A PIOUS MAX. It is said that the proprietor of ti Newall House in Milwaukee was a pious man. lie always responded with the loudest "amen" at the prayer meetings and was ex essively excessive in church matters. So caretiil was he t»rer the reputation of the hired girls, in the ho tel, that he alwavs hstd them locked iu their rooms ot night, and it is alleged that on account of this zeal when the house took fire the poor girls couldn't escape. Yet this saintly hypocrite knowing the hot^i was a tinder-box, housed some seventy-five of them into th** sixth story, and locked them up like cattle to protect their virtue? leaving them to certain death in case of fire. "O Liberty! wiiat crimes have been committed in thy name," were the dy ing words of Madam Roland, and she might have added, "O Religion! what devilishness is covered with thy cloak." —Cherokee Times. It is said that a New York man, er men, representing a large capital, is negotiating for a single tract of 5,000 acres of land in Lyon county, about eiaht miles west of Sibley, for the cul tivation and production, on a b.rge scale, of Bermuda flax, and that Sibley is to have a mill to take care of the product. The story goes that twenty steam plows will be put to work, and everything else operated on an equally large scale. This will be a boom for that country, and no mistake, and we hope the startling rumor will prove reality.—Sheldon Mai J, (mr^v*s ipi-,-..-® •VOL. XI. WOimiliNGTON, NOBLES COUNTY, MINNESOTA. THURSDAY.

[From Sin St. Peter Tiilaan'.] KA SUA 17\ MIS -V.B'O As this is aljout i.ie time: of year foi the Minnesota fan:» to coiijmeuct* talking of Selling out and gtdn^ Kati sas or some southern tale '.ve take the following extracts from a private lettei just received from -ii. J. T. Glover, a former i.'si-lvnt ot St Peter, but m»w oi Covert, Kansas. The tter d-«-s m,i yive a very encouraging report oi farirt ing in K.insa'*. Mr. Gii-vvr Pays: "i am afraid I cannot sell my corn as ail t.h buyers have left. Now about the big wheat cmps your Kansas corres pondent tells oi. I 'Ve been to some trouble to tint! a man who gs»t 40 bush els per acre, I found one man, who from 5 acies of a new kind of wheat. g«t 10-J bushels, but the threshers claim that wiieat runs from 10 to 23 or an av erage of about 14 or 15 bushels. Wheat is now worth 5:)cts for best. It costs just as much to raise a bushel of wheat here as it does in Minnesota, and the farmers in Minnesota growl at 90cts. We would like to trade prices'with them. Corn in this and some ot the ad joining counties average about 8 hush els to the acre, of course some, localities are better, as the rain luns in narrow belts. One place may "nave rain while a mile or so off there will not lie a drop, and the chinch bugs also work in belts and between the two there is no crap. I am still of the opinion that Kansas is no farming country, except thu eastern portion, and we can sec that the iarme: are poorer than thev were four years ago. Those who had the means and water (which is a big thing here) to go into cattle or sheep raisins, are making a living. The weather has been inild, the coldest was New Years morning— below. From that tim* fierce winds .nost of the time which culminated on the ISrh and lOtii in a regular old fash ioned Minnesota blizzard,and22belo.v. wish the wind blowing a gale from the northwest. The woist storm I have ever seen in Kansas and never saw but one in Minnesota to equal it—that was the three days storm. There hasabout five inches of snow fell here The pros pects for a wheat crop are poor, because the ground was too dry to sow in time, consequently not more than one-half of it is up. I got in ten acres in good shape and it is looking fairly. I would say that I farmed 6o acres and at price* that will not pay for my ojvn and son's labor, §1.50. J. T. GLOVER. St. IVter Tribune: Bishop Ireland, a strong advocate of temperance, and who has accomplished more than an other man in the State, is'in favor if high license, but not of prohibition. TIIH opinion is gaining ground that high lieense is more practical and ad visable than prohibition. Nearly all praminent practical tem perance workers are of the same opin ion. They start out radical Prohibi tionists and learn wisdom by the con flict. They find that when you can't eradicate lightning, it is better to turu it down a lightning rod or barnags it to a telegraph apparatus or an electric light. Iowa is the state for newspapers. Ly on county lias paid the Review over $3, 000 in a little over three years for coun ty printing. This good pay to newspa pers is probably why Iowa lias more of them to the square inch than any other state. Bnt, Great Caesar! what a howl there would be up this way if the coun ty should pay $1,000 a year for county printing. The President and Poetry: The Troy Standard says that President Ar thur composed a "piece" of poetry for a boy to "speak" some years ago. That accounts for it. That is why he veto ed the first Chinese bill and the River and Harbor bill. We shall think bet ter of President Arthur for this and these. Indeed, the mere writing part of ed iting a newspaper is but a small portion of the work. The care, the time em ployed in selecting, is far mare impor tant, and the fact of a good editor is better shown by his selections than anything else and that, we know, is half the battle.—Ilenry Watterson. Just so. A big paste pot and a pad dle, with a pair of scissors thrown in, are what an editor needs. Paste and paddle are mightier than the sword. George Alfred Townsend, evidently with the ADVANCE in his eye, says: The publishing of a newspaper, like the wiiting for them, is a matter of gaod, hard sense and unintimidated in dustry. There is a democracy in the newspaper business. The weakness of men is soon found out. Their strength no man can take from them by lying or back-biting. To honest assertion a way is ever open. 1888.
