Minn., as second class matter. | SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER ANNUM GLAD TO RETURN TO MINNESOTA. The identity of the author of the subjoined article has been lost in the various reproductions, but there is much that is truth ful in it: “Occasionally a man gets dis- satisfied with Minnesota. milk is too yellow or the honey too sweet and he doesn’s like to have them flow over his land. Anyway he parts with his farm, sells his live stock and other art- icles too numerous to mention and moves out west. Then he takes his good Minnesota money and buys a farm, which is today, and tomorrow is not, or he tries Colorado and slouches around in the mud irrigating a strip so narrow that a cow couldn’t jump in a field because she jumps over it. Then he hears of Texas and goes down to hunt the bag of gold on the rainbow. In the day time he scratches sand burs out of his flesh and at night the tar- antulas nibble at his feat and the centipedes crawl on his face. When his money is gone he feels like he did on the first night he stayed away from home, He yearns for dear old Minnesota and the yearn sticks in his throat and chokes him until tears come to his eyes. He would give a month’s work tosee the old Minnesota farm and hear the horn blow for supper.” The Crookston Journal of yesterday has an article in its state press department which it erroneously credits to the Bel- trami Co. News. It happens that the article appeared in the Times of Jan. 5th, but that the News overlooked the little matter of saying so. We suggest to the Journal that it need not go through the neighbor’s yard when it wishes to borrow our editorial pabulum.—Crookston Times. The above spasm of virtuous indignation is certainly amusing In times gone by (pretty recently t00) the news editor of the Times has taken many articles bodily from the columns of the Pioneer and handed it out to Times read- ers as simon pure news matter originating in tho Times news service; and, with a reckless abandon that savors of the “pir- ate,” there has never been any cradit given to the Pioneer, whose reportorial hustler “dug up’’ the item. It often depends whose bunion is being trod on, as to the extent of the consequent howl. ALL THINGS POSSIBLE AT KELLIHER. Kelliher may be forced to “get off the earth,” owing to rich deposits of iron ore recently dis- covered there. The village of Sparta was shunted to one side recently for the same reason. Rather unusual conditions to have your cellar worth more than The| Aund next we may expect to jhear that the skin of the snake that tempted Mother Eve has been found at Kelliher. All things are possible at that hust- ling place, so long as Mayor “Bill” Lennon and Peter Larkin are in business in that ‘‘neck o’ the woods.” ' The London Express, in an |article giviag comparisons of the ;wealth of the United States and jother countries, says that the | wealth of Great Britain is in- creasing at the rate of $7,000,000 weekly, while that of the United States is growing 2t the rate of $10,000,000 daily. Editorially it {declares that if the British would cast off the fetters of 2 worn-out commercial system they would prosper like the Americans and regain their old supremacy. GONFINED TO THE HARBOR. Only Small Portion of Kingston Swept by Fire. London, Jan. 17.—The destruction wrought by the earthquake at King- ston, Jamaica, and the subsequent conflagration, according to an official telegram received at the colonial office, was by no means so widespread as indicated in the first reports. Although the total number of killed and wounded has not yet been ascer- tained apparently it is not very large and only a small portion of the city, including, however, wharves and ware- houses, suffered from the fire that fol- lowed the earthquake. The greater number of casualties seemingly was in the camp hospital, where thirty colored soldiers were killed. The Colonial bank of Kingston was burned down. The vaults with the books and cash are safe and the mem- bers of the staff escaped uninjured. The telegram, which was sent by Governor Swettenham, is as follows: “Severe earthquake shock caused considerable damage to houses at Kingston. It was followed by a fire, which continues, though it is confined to about one-sixteenth part of the town, containing wharves and ware- houses. The camp hospital was de- stroyed and thirty men were Kkilled. There were no officers among them. Major Headyman was seriously in- jured. The town hospital is crowded with some 300 injured persons. The fire is now decreasing. The Myrtle Bank hotel has been destroyed and also the cable office. The conference delegates and the members of Sir Alfred Jones’ expedition are believed to be uninjured and are now on board the Port Kingston in the harbor. Num- bers were killed or wounded, but the figures have not yet been ascertained. Slighter shocks continue.” IN INTERSTATE COMMERCE. Commissioner Garfield Favors Arbi. trating Labor Disputes. Washington, Jan. 17.—James R. Garfleld, commissioner of corporations, appeared before the house committes on interstate and foreign commerce in support of the Townsend bill, which provides for the appointment by the president of commissions to arbitrate controversies concerning wages or hours of employment which affect the transportation of mails and interstate commerce. When asked to cite recent cases where such a commission would, in his opinion, have been effective in settling disputes Mr. Garfield sald he believed that both the teamsters’ strike and the strike of packers’ em ployes in Chicago would have been settled before assuming such serious proportions. Mr. Garfield advocsfied publicity as an eftective feature investigations In clearing up injustices and in- stanced the Standard Oll investigation as an example of its great value. In- dependent ofl operators, Mr. Garfield said, have told him recently that for the first time in twenty years they are free from discriminations.

APPEAL TO PRESIDENT NATIONAL RECIPROCAL DEMUR- RAGE LAW ADVOCATED TO END CAR SHORTAGE. ANOTHER HEARING WILL BE HELD INTERSTATE COMMERCE COMMIS- SION TO BE PRESENT AT THE NEXT MEETING. ‘Washington, Jan. 17.—The president during the day heard an appeal in favor of federal legislation for recip- rocal demurrage to meet the situation caused by the lack of railroad equip- ment and the delay in moving cars when loaded. The appeal was pre- sented by the executive committee of the National Reciprocal Demurrage convention recently held at Chicago, headed by Victor H. Beckman of Se- attle, Wash,, chairman. Chairman Knapp of the interstate commerce commission also was present. The appeal says that the lumber trade, whose commodity is one of the heaviest contributors to railroad rev- enue, has been perhaps the chief suf- ferer from inadequate transportation facilities. It was argued that prop- erly framed federal legislation made with due regard to the operating ques- tions involved and the respective rights of the public and common carriers would in a short time permanently re- lieve the country of the present men- ace and result in added prosperity to both the railroads and to the interests they serve. The president received the commit- tee cordially and promised to take up the matter with them again, when other members of the interstate com- merce commission are expected to be present. SWEDISH PARLIAMENT OPENS. Speech From Throne Foreshadows Im- portant Legislation. Stockholm, Jan. 17.—The Swedish parliament was formally opened dur- ing the day with a speech from the throne delivered by Crowa Prince Gus- tave in his capacity as regent. After a reference to the “gratifying change for the better” in the condition of his father, King Oscar, and the good rela- tions existing between Sweden and the foreign powers, the crown prince discussed the domestic affairs of the kingdom. The principal legislation foreshadowed in the speech was a comprehensive electoral reform meas- ure, introducing universal suffrage and limiting the election of members of the house to a period of six years. Municipal franchises also will be ex- tended so as to include wider sections of the community. Other hills to be introduced provide for the establish- ment of a naval station on the island of Lindiugo, the establishment of a free port and warehouses at some point not yet announced and the utili- zation of hydraulic power of the wa- terfalls of Sweden. STOCK LOSS WILL BE HEAVY. Conditions on Montana Range the Worst Ever Known. Glendive, Mont., Jan. 17.—The range conditions in this section of Montana are said to be the worst in the history of the country. The range is covered with snow from a depth of ten inches to three feet. In the Big Dry and Missouri river country the snow is fully three feet deep, one foot of which fell in November. - A rain in early December fell on this snow, making a crust which holds up a team. Stock in that country that is not supplied with food and shelter will be a total loss. Sheepmen will suffer the heaviest, as horses and cat- tle can be driven out to some extent. The sheepmen in this immediate section are all pretty well supplied with food and those who are not are trailing to the railroad as fast as pos- sible. The temperature is about 36 degrees below zero. SAYS HUNDREDS ARE DEAD. Dispatch From United States Consul at Kingston. ‘Washington, Jan. 17.—The following cablegram was received at the state department from the United States consul at Kingston: “Fearful earthquake, followed by fire. Kingston destroyed. Hundreds of lives lost. Food badly wanted.” Fairbanks’ Arrest Ordered. Steubenville, 0., Jan. 17.—Sheriff Vorhes has sent a telegram to the sheriff of Clark county, at Springfield, 0., to place Frederick C.-Fairbanks, son of Vice President Fairbanks, un- der arrest following his indictment here by the grand jury for perjury in connection with his procuring a - cense to marry Helen Scott, daughter of the millionaire ironmaster, James Scott of Pittsburg.

It is astonishing how great a change a few years of married life ofteh make in the appearance and disposition of many women. The freshness, the charm, the brilliance venish like the bloom from a peach whioh is rudely handled. The matron is only a dim shadow, a faint echo of the charming maiden. There are two reasons for this change, ignorance and neglect. Few young women appreciate the shock to the system through the change which comes with marriage and motherhood. Many neglect to deal with the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak- nesses which too often come with mar- riage and motherhood, not understanding that this secret drain is robbing the cheek of its freshness and the form of its fairness.

Cincinnati, Jan. 17.—Flood condi- CHINES tlons are reported at all points be- tween Point Pleasant and Cincinnati by the weather bureau. At Point Pleasant the stage of the river was “five feet above the danger line and in this city it was 51.7, or nearly two feet above the danger point. The weather observer announced that the outlook was very serious. For a distance of 400 miles the Ohio is reported at flood stage and still rising. Local forecast officials predict that the river will pass fifty-six feet here. A stage of fifty-six feet will cripple business seriously in the bottoms.
