Minu., as second class matter. | SUBSCRIPTION.-$5.00 PER ANNUM The fuelman just grins and reckons he can bear it. Cole is an issue, sinco yester day, in many a family that doesn’t give a snap for politics. La Follette’s attack on Senators | | Nelson and Clapp because they failed to vote for some pet bills of his, reminds one of the man who *‘kicked against the pricks.” It didn’t hurt the ¢ pricks” any. The selection of Thomas .H. Salmon for the state central committee to succeed C. H. Warner, resigned, ought to give general satisfaction. Salmon is a bright attorney, a keen poli- tician and a good fellow all around. With John A. Johnson running for governor ou the democratic ticket, and John W. Johnson run- ning for the same office on the socialist ticket, it looks like trouble ahead for the genial candidate from St. Peter. The democrats say it is a low-down trick and are as mad as the man whose friend has just sat down on his new $5 hat; but Mr, Cole and his central committee aren’t agitated a bit. John D. Rockefeller, the unic- terviewed, has at last spoken for the public ear, and thz only thing he had to say was an arraign- ment of the government for its attempt to regulate the trusts, and especially for its forcing of the packers to clean upand make the meat business sanitary; because it injured the meat busi- ness abroad. When Mr. Rocke- feller returned from Europea month or two ago, he expressed a wish that the public might know him better, and he seems to have set about suiting the action to the word. It might be just as well if the old gentleman would change his mind and keep out of the limelight. His popu- larity doesn’t grow with ac- -|quaintance. NELSON OPPOSITION A FIZZLE. There is some opposition to Senator Nelson—it would not speak well for him if he had not made a few enemies—but even should such a popular man as Jake Jacobson be induced to run against him, the senior senator need have no fear of the result and probably does not have, Almost every republican elect- ed to the legislature this fall will be bound by respect for the ex- pressed wish of his constituents, if not by a direct pledge or pre- nomination statement, to vote for Nelson. Where Jacobson or any other candidate against Nelson is going to get his votes, we can- not see. And speaking about Jacobson, it’s a safe guess he will keep his fingers out of the senatorial pie, THE PRESIDENT DID IT. It is wonderful what a change there has been in public senti- ment regarding simplified spell- ing within the last month or two or three, Early last summer almost everybody who reads the maga- zines and the papers knew in a general way that Andrew Car- negie had financed a simplified spelling board, and that Brander Matthews and & few other educa- tional lights were active in the movement for reform. Here and there a few newspapers were making bold to use alist of twelve simplified words. But the great majority of the public was skep- tical or indifferent, and the re- form. promised to drag along a slow and unpopular existence. Suddenly the figure of a man with shining eye glasses and a big: stick leaped into the spot light'in defense of the ‘‘heresy,” and. the’ public began to sit up and take notice. The skeptical nd’ the indifferent were quick- ned into life, and although the {former kicked: more -vigorously than ever, the latter, from'a state of mere endurance, first ‘pitied then embraced.” The result is that today the movement for a saner spelling of our harder words has gained a ccnsiderable following. Scores of the influential newspapers throughout the Northwest have declared for the new spelling of the list of 800 words recom- mended by the board and adopted by the president for the use in the White House; the Augsburg theological seminary in Minne: apolis has decided to use it in its class rooms; and now there is talk of intruducing the reform in the city hall offices in Minne- apolis. This is the course evenis are taking in the Northwest, merely, and doubtless in other sections the new spelling bas gained con- verts in the same remarkable manner. Great is President Roosevelt and his strenuous way of doing things. Horses and Grans. A famous veterinary surgeon de- clares that grass beats all the drugs in creation as a cure for sick horses and mules. ‘Horses should have a few quarts of grass daily from spring until fall, he says. The prevalent notion that It is barmful is idiotic and cruel. Grass to horses Is the same as fresh vegetables and fruit to us. Their crav- ing for it proves thelr need of it. Yet ignorant, unfeeling drivers yank them away from it as if it was polson in- stead of the life glving medicine it is, designed by their Maker for them. ‘When they gnaw the bark of trees or eat leaves it is because they crave grass and can’t get it. Millions of bush- els of grass go to waste yearly by the wayside which should be utilized for our noble, faithful, helpless, dumb col- league, the horse, thus making him healthy and happy. Summer visitors ‘who bire horses should remember these facts and give the animals a chance to get at the grass by the roadside once in awhile. The Plausible Lie. We resent calumny, hypocrisy and treachery because they harm us, not because they are untrue. Take the de- traction and the mischief from the un- truth, and we are little offended by it. Turn it into pralse, and we may be pleased with it. And yet it is not cal- umny and treachery that do the lar- gest sum of mischief in the world. They are continually crushed and are felt only in belng conquered. But it Is the glistening and softly spoken lie, the amiable fallacy, the patriotic lie of the historian, the provident lie of the politician, the zealous lie of the parti- san, the merciful lie of the friend and the careless lie of each man to himself that cast that black mystery over hu- manity through which we thank any man who pierces it as we would thank one who dug a well in a desert. Hap- py that the thirst for truth remains with us even when we have willfully left the fountains of it.—John Ruskin. Faithtul to His Friend. Toole and Irving were friends from the days when they were both strug- gling beginners. On one occasion Ir- ving was to be presented to Queen Victoria and was delighted at the hon- or. An officious court functionary took it upon himself to tell the player “not to mentlon this matter outside” lest other actors, such as Mr. Toole, might think that they should be presented too. “Let me tell you, sir,” sald Irving, “that Mr. Toole is not only a deserv- edly renowned comedian; he is also a truly Christian gentleman. Toole often saved me from adversity, perhaps star- vation, when I was unknown. If John L. Toole is not worthy to be presented to her most graclous majesty, neither is Henry Irving. I wish you good day, sir!”"—London Standard. The Marvels of Sclence. ‘When we hear of rays of light capa- ble of achieving photography through a foot thickness of solid iron, of the charting of the sky itself on such a scale that a thousand million members of the firmament can be recorded each In its appointed place, of the discov- ery of something like the sense organs of human knowledge on the roots, @tems and leaves of plants; of the tracking of diseases which decimate humanity to their obscure source in the parasite of a parasite and of the proc- ess by which two patient and humble sclentists working upon a few gralng of an element in a mere secondary form managed to revolutionize our whole conception of the most stupen- dous forces of the physical world it seems indeed a mystery that the ap- petite for surprise and sensation should turn aside from what the pursuit of truth can offer and prefer to regale itself with the petty products of trump- ery, invention and ingenuity. — Pall Mall Gazette. Beauty of Clouds. It 1s not of first sight easy to say ‘why people so rarely give more than a passing glance to the realm of .air above them. Is it because we cannot have a finger in this department of the wonders of nature, cannot net and label anything in those blue flelds, pin it down on cork or fatten it in Canada balsam; cannot here annihilate dis- tance with our ingenious Instruments, that we neglect the phenomena of the Bky? There above us, always ours for a lift of the eyes, is beauty in endless change for the contented mind and for the restless one the challenge of the ceaseless thaumaturgy which seems Mttle nearer being found out than ‘when the world began, and yet in com- parison with such lines of research as are offered by cuckoo's eggs or the “protective devices” of caterpillars the region of the clouds may be said to be umexplored.—Saturday Review.

Early in y _college career he had his left eye bliided by a plece of bread playfully thrgwn at him by a fellow student, and the other eye soon became sympathet- ically ‘affected. He traveled in Eng- land, France and Italy and then de- voted himself to severe study, but it was not till the beginning of 1826 that the range of Spanish history. Fortu- nately his means were ample, so that he was able to procure the services of assistants.and to live amid condit:ons x| of conifort. By constant habit he gain- ed the. power of carfying a great deal 1n his memory, and after he had revolv- ed the whole of a chapter in his mind ‘hie quickly transferféd it to paper by means of his stylus and an ingenious writiag case especially constructed for the blind. He published his “History of Ferdinand and Isabella” in 183% which carried his name across the ocean to the old’ world. This was followed by his “History of the Conquest of Mexi- co” in 1843, and of “Peru” in 1847, 'W. R. Baumbach, President. O. W. Baumtach, Vice-President: = W. L. Brooks, Cashier.
