Entered as second-class mail matter at

IF China would open Manchuria at
once to the commerce of the world,
Bussia might hesitate to make enemies
of all the great powers by opposing
such a course.
THE university of Chicago will re
main a Baptist institution long after
president Harper is dead and forgotten.
If he would step right out, it would be
a very wise solution of his vagaries.
JUST what Northfield and Owatonna
are to gain by keeping out the com
petitive Twin City Telephone Company
at the dictation of the Bell monopoly is
difficult to discover. They will realize
their blunder later.
there is a deadlock in the state re

and Dunn for governor, just watch E.

below as the regular thing in north
Manchuria during the winter month?,
hostilities betweet Russia and Japan in
that locality would have to be carried
on pretty lively to keep the troops from
perishing with the cold.
WE do not believe that Judge Collins
has any special favors granted to him
in way of rooms in the capitol for his
political headquarters any more than
we believe that Van Sant will be able
to dictate to him in his appointments
The boys should invent more plausible
yarns.
STATISTICS of the increase in the
population of Omaha during January
tend to confirm the current idea that
few babies are born in the homes of
the wealthy. Of the 155 babies born
during the past month, all have parent
age on the birth cards as "artisan,"
"clerk" or "laborer."
THE special attention of farmers in
this locality is called to the local farm
ers institute to be held at the court
room next Wednesday. It will be a
conference for the purpose of mutual
improvement and it is hoped that ar
rangements will be made to hold them
regularly every month. Come out and
help.
THERE is little hope of a peaceful
settlement between Russia and JapaD
as we write. The whole world is in
volved in the decisions of this struggle.
It is sincerely hoped that the unrighte
ous greed of Russia for extension of
territory in spite of treaties with other
countries will be effectually disap
pointed.
THE railroads are able to tell how
much per mile it costs to haul a ton
of freight over their roads. We believe
that if the farmers could estimate how
much it costs them to haul a ton a mile
over the average poor roads in all kinds
of seasons it would greatly astonish
them. Yet they have always been quite
indifferent to the good roads problem.
THE supreme court very sensibly sus
tains Judge Kingsley in the following
decision: "Parties to an action may
settle the matter in litigation without
consultation with the attorneys of
either party, and such settlement
when fairly made and entered into,
without fraud or collusion intended to
defeat the, rights of the attorneys claim
ing any right or interest in the matter
settled, are valied and binding."
SAINT PAI is playing the baby act
over an error in an encyclopedia article
giving Minneapolis the supremacy in
the state. Every one knows that Minne
apolis is the metropolis, just the same
leading in population, commercial in
terests, railroad statistics, bank clear
ings, manufacturing and enterprise.
We repeat, Minneapolis is the chief city
of Minnesota and is properly recognized'
as such by all who know the facts.
TIIEY are falling anto line rapidly.
Ex-senator II. J. Miller of Luverner,
editor of the Rock County Herald says:
"I stand just where I always have on
our state issues and I cannot consist
ently support Mr. Dunn, I am a per
sonal friend of his, and before Judge
Collins announced himself I was ready
to support Dunn if he could square
himself on the merger issue, because I
was opposed to the third term for
Governor Van Sant on principle. Judge
Collins's candidacy puts a different face
on the matter, and I am in favor of his
nomination".

editor noticed a bulletin in front of a

coming to the conclusion that in order
to get the top price for their stock*
they must have the best breeds. Scrubs
in hogs, cattle, horses or in fact any
thing raised by the farmer, always
bring small returns when sold and
farmers are beginning to see it.
Winnebago City Press-News: Why

Annandale Advocate: Despite the
exclusion act there are Chinamen in
most counties. The legislature in its
wisdom placed a legal rate to be paid
to one paper for official publication.
Over here we publish the matter in
seven papers at the one legal rate, and
than we have publishers who are bray
iug about it like an army mule insisting
that the people are robbed because the
printing was not let to one second rate
paper at about two thirds price. Well,
well, there are other thjngs beside
geese that the Lord left shy on good
sense.
Northfield News: The question that
confronts the feeders is, can we make
profit enough out of pur steers at the
prices they have been bringing to war
rant us to continue in this business?
While people were jumping into it
pretty lively a few years ago, there is
certain to be a temporary cessation for
the present. There is no question but
that today the price of meat is fixed by
the meat trust. How long this condition
of affairs will exist will in all pro
bability depend upon how long the
farmer and consumer will allow them
selves to remain at the mercy of this
great corporation.
Spring Valley Sun: The newspapers
of Fillmore county the past month
donated money enough to the county
commissioners to build porticoes to the
court house. Prom the fact no news
paper ms(n in the county is the owner
of a portico, it was a generous act upon
the part of the fraternity. It is to be
hoped the taxpayers will appreciate the
gift and not "stop their paper." The
merchants, bankers and business men
of the county who deal with the com
missioners might have done the same
charity act, but they did not. They get
pay for their labor. Perhaps they are
right. It may be the better plan.
Mapleton Enterprise: A laundry
firm at Berlin, Germany, has set an ex
ample that many people in this country
would like to have the American
laundryman emulate. It is that of
furnishing its customers with shirts,
and in fact a complete outfit, providing
they have the privilege of laundrying
the same. As the average laundry
wears out more clothes than the owner
thereof, the proposition has its virtues
as they would evidently take more care
if they had to furnish the goods. YVe
hope the new scheme will be adopted
very soon as we' want anew shirt so as
to be able to attend the State Editorial
Association.

Glenville Progress: Have you had
any trouble during the cold snap trying
to get heat out of the hard coal that
the western dealers are getting this
year? It seems as though that $10 per
ton ought to purchase a pretty good
quality of coal but the stuff that has
been shipped to the dealers this winter
is but very little better than a good
quality of soft coal broken up. The
hard coal stoves and furnaces this
winter are filled with clinkers which
are nearly as large as the grate aijd
completely shut.off the draft and if you
try to force the feed at all the stuff just
simply will not burn or else will melt
away without giving out a quarter of
the heat that the old time hard coal
used to give.
Crookston Journal: It is whispered
about the Twin Cities that a brand

The candidate whose announcement is
expected to bring about this state of
affairs is none other than our old friend,
Granville S. Pease, the Nestor of the
editorial fraternity in Minnesota. In
the event of a deadlock between the
two principal candidates now in the
field much might be expected frbm the
of Anoka as a gubernatoral
possibility. Bro. Pease, is balder than
Bob Dunn and taller than *Judge

PROGRESS IN DAIRYING.
Why Cheese Making la Getting: to Be
a Profitable Industry In a Kam[
ber of Localities.
At the recent annual meeting of the
Holstein-Friesian association Prof" -H.
H. Dean said: "True progress cannot
take place in the dairy business, or in
any other business, unless we have the
people educated. And one of the
things which we have been developing
in our country in connection with the
dairy business, and one which we
found to be very satisfactory, is the
grouping of the various cheese fac
tories into small groups or syndi
cates of from 25 to 30 factories, put
ting an expert man In charge of these
factories. He visits these factories at
least once a month, holds meetings of
the patrons, discusses with them the
importance of good cows, how to feed
these cows, how to care for the milk,
advises the cheesemaker as to how he
can improve his produce, and I think
that we have
possibly
struck one of
the notes which will do more to im
prove our cheese business than any
thing we have yet done along that
line. Formerly our instructors were
scattered over colleges, over a large
number of factories, 50, 60, 100, or
200, or 300 factories, and they were
not getting, at the men on the farm,
who were producing the milk, who
were producing the raw material and
our dairy industry and your dairy in
dustry depends upon the quality of the
raw material which is produced and
hence you, as farmers, as breeders of
dairy cattle, as men who are supply
ing milk to the cheese factories and
creameries of the various states, .are
the men who are at the foundation Of
the business and these are the meft
who in the past we liave been unable
to reach but our system of institu
tion now has been able to get at
man pn the.
average farm, and has
duced wonderful results in our
ness."
The Value 'of Cleanliness.
The majority of cellars are very
properly ventilated and the length^bf
time for keeping milk therein varies
on nearly all farms. The success in
the creameries is due to the observ
ance of a proper degree of tempera-
observing of that point they will con
tinue to have difficulties. One of the
obstacles is uncleanliness in the sta
ble as well as in the milk houses. The
regulation of the churning is as noth
ing compared with the essential re
quisites of properly keeping the places
and utensils in the best condition.
The water, however, is the source of
the greatest danger. It has been dem
onstrated by actual experiment that
the germs of disease existing in im
pure water are carried without change
into the milk, where they rapidly
multiply and cause decomposition.

(Copyright, 1003, by American Press Association.]
The healing of the leper, which seems
to follow, in the order of events, the
Sabbath day in Capernaum of last
Weeks lesson, shows us the power of
God over an utterly incurable disease,
which in the Old Testament is very
suggestive of sin in us. How mighty
and wonderful were those five words
of our Lord in answer to the leper's
cry, "I will be thou clean" (i, 41), and
instantly he was clean. Just as long,
and no longer, does it take to save a
sinner. The leper's joy was so great
that notwithstanding the Lord's com
mand to say nothing to any man he so
blazed abroad the matter that Jesus
could no more openly enter into the
city, but was without in desert places,
and they came to Him from every
quarter (i, 45). As soon as He returned
to Capernaum and the people knew it
they gathered in such numbers that
they not only filled the house, but it
was impossible to get near the door.
But only the sick need a physician,
and only the lost need a Saviour, and
these Pharisees and doctors were in
their own estimation neither sick nor
lost (Matt. fx. 12 Luke xix, 10), so they
came and heard and saw and went
away without the blessing that was to
be had for the receiving. The rich He
sent empty away (Luke i, 53). Yet
Jesus preached the word unto them
(verse 2), and it was the same word
that cast out evil spirits, that healed
the leper, that stilled the storm, that
created the worlds, but it did these
wise and learned people no good, for
they did not receive it. The god of this
world had blinded their minds (II Cor.
iv, 4). There was another day when
the people thronged Him, but one poor
woman touched Him to some purpose
(Mark v, 30, 31) others might have
done so, but this one did.
While the self sufficient, self right
eous, see in Him only one to criticise
and condemn there is brought to Him
a helpless one for whom and in whom
His power can be manifest, for He giv-
eth
power to the faint and helps those
wlK
have no helper (Isa. xl,29 lxxii,12)
He filleth the hungry with good things.
The four friends who brought their
palsied friend manifested a zeal and
determination sure to accamplish their
end if it be at all possible to be accom
plished. Their thoughts seem to have
run in this channel: Our poor friend is
helpless, and in that house is the Man
who
can help him if we can only get
at Him, and we think we can, and we'll
do it at once, for every moment is
precious.
Let those who talk of coming to Jesus
in a very proper and becoming way
think of the method of these men and
our Lord's approval. The people gath
ered in the house, those Pharisees and
doctors, saw a most unseemly thing
when the roof was broken up over their
heads and a' helpless man was lowered
into their midst. Perhaps never before
nor since did a man come to Christ aft
er that fashion. The one thing that
Jesus saw was their faith, the one
thing that pleases Him most, for with
out faith it is impossible to please
Him (Heb. xi, 6). Contrast the "Great
Faith" and the "Little Faith" of Matt.
Viii. 10 xv, 28 viii, 26 xvi, 8. Prob
ably all were surprised when our Lord
said, "Son, thy sins be forgiven thee,"
1 for he had been brought for healing of
the body. Yet the Lord read the heart,
and it may be that He saw before Him
one who was more troubled about his
soul than his body. He at least saw, as
He always sees, that the healing of
the soul is the most important, for if
only we are truly saved a perfect body
is assured us in due time (Phil, iii,
20, 21).
There are tnan.v texts which assure
us of the forgiveness of sins. Those
which help me most are I John ii, 12
Isa. xliii. 25. Do not fail to observe the
Lord's "Be of good cheer" (Matt, ix,
2, 22), and let Him make us such a
"good cheer" people that He shall be
glorified in us. It may be that the man
was much terrified by'his manner of
approach to Christ and our Lord gra
ciously quiets him at once, as when
He appeared in the midst on the first
resurrection evening and said, "Peace
be unto you." For a speaker to know
that in the minds of his hearers there
is unjust and cruel criticism would be
very upsetting to most people, perhaps
to all but to our Lord Himself, but our
Lord -lived before His Father rather
than before the religious leaders of the
day.
Had these Pharisees and doctors been
teachable they might have said, Jlere
is One who forgives sins and heals the
sick and is quite undisturbed by this
unheard of proceeding. He must be
our expected Messiah. But, as we said
before, they were blinded by unbeliev
ing criticism, just as many are today.
Turning again to the sick man, see him
now carrying that which had carried
him, all sins forgiven and his body
healed, going forth before them all a
living evidence of the grace and the
power of the Son of Man.
No wonder .that they glorified Gods
saying, We never saw it in this fash
ion. What a praise meeting the man
and his friends must tiave had! Where
is the faith of these four seen now?
How much of it is there in you? In
me? Where is the faith that t^kes no
denial, that says, like Jacob, "I will
not let thee go except thou bless me?"
Let us not look around and. criticise
others, but ask the Lord- to search us
according to Ps. cxxxix, 23, 24, and
bring us into such manifest union with
Himself "that Hj|s pgw^ may, seen
