The following little item clipped from the columns of the Pelican Rapids Press will be of interest to the uninitiated in search of a public office. 5 “‘Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.” Yes and his days ase full of turmoil and trouble who is holding a political position of any kind. His every act and deed are watched and criticised. His very best intentions and works are bitterly denounced by his enemies. His public utterances are interpre- ted as meaning anything but what they were intended to convey. His reputation is shot full of holes. His domestic and private life is laid bare to the public and in many ways his life is made miser- able. Verily, I would rather be a private citizen with a host of good loyal friends than to be a public servant and a target for all the venomous and vitrolic attacks of the public.” OBSERVATIONS. (By "Doc"] Yet the bunko man’s little game is only skin deep. A rural melodrama should at least have a grass plot. The man who pays his coal bills always has money to burn. Once in a great while a man actually needs his wife’s advice. The female matchmaker usually goes about disguised as a chaperon. A woman is seldom jealous of her husband’s first love after meeting her. Women that cheapen themselves soon learn that men do not care for bargains. Even a pessimist can see more good in the world than the world can see in him. There may be hyporcrites in the church but think of the vast number outside of it. ‘The Manchester Martyrs. Along in '67 or thereabouts some Irishmen tried to rescue a bunch of Fenlan prisoners in Manchester, and a police sergeant was shot and killed. The prisoners got away, which may have had something to do with the up- shot too. The government was natur- ally sore, and they managed to hang three of the rescue party without too much fine haired fuss as to whether they had anything to do with the shoot- ing or mot. At that time Fenians and Nationalists were at daggers drawn, and the church was heavy against the Fenians, of course, but they were all one, one In agony and shame over those Irish boys strung up in an Eng- lish town. All tHeir helplessness, all the bitterness of England’s might, Eng- land managed with those halters to drive festering deep afresh. Think of a town the size of Dublin turning out a funeral procession of 60,000 people, and think of how those 60,000 Irish were feeling when I tell you they were qulet—quiet in" those streets where the lowest hovels had hung out their bits of gpen-twined black.—McClure's Magazine. 8hop Without a Name. In the Devonshire town of Modbury there is a butcher’s shop which has no name nor has it had one for the last 120 years. The reason affords a strik- ing {llustration of the superstitious na- ture of west country folk. When this particular business was started, the owner for some reason or other did not have his name inscribed on the prem- lses. Whether this fact had anything to do with the success of the business or mot it would be difficult to say. Trade, however, was brisk, and the butcher duly retired, leaving the name- less shop to his son. The business has been handed down from father to son for more than 120 years, but none of those Into whose occupation it has come would have his name put up on any consideration, fearing—as, In fact, the present owner does today—that such a procedure might break the spell of good fortune with which the busi- ness has been favored.—London Stand- ard. —_— BLL PASSES HOUSE Measure Granting $12 a Month to All Soldiers’ Widows. INVOLVES $12,741,000 A YEAR Proposition Goes Through Without Division and With Only One Voice In Opposition—Property Holdings No Longer a Bar to Government Aid. Washington, Feb. 4.—Without divi- slon and with only one voice in oppo- sition the house passed the Sulloway bill granting a flat pension of $12 a month to all widows of honorably dis- charged soldiers. Its provisions were explained by its author, who said it involved an additional expenditure of $12,741,000. He described destitute widows of soldiers who were unable to secure pensions because of some technicality of the law regarding prop- erty holdings and received applause when he said these technicalities should be swept away. Mr. Underwood (Ala.) secured a round of applause by expressing his approval of the measure on the ground of its general character and its jus- tice to many who heretofore have been denied the privileges of the pension laws, NEW MODEL LICENSE BILL Measure Pending in nentucky Legisia- ture Withdrawn. Louisville, Feb. 4-—The officers of the National Model License league will withdraw their bill recently presented In the Kentucky legislature and offer a substitute model license law bill which enforces their ideas more strongly. This new bill is endorsed by all the factions of the trade and has been the means of harmonizing the distillers, brewers, wholesale deal- ers and retailers, It is also thought to serve better for a model for similar laws to be presented in every state in the Union. The features embraced in the bill are the limitation of licenses accord- ing to population; to make the life of the license dependent only on obe- dience to law; automatically to en- force such obedience and to take the saloon out of politics. It is in regard to this last feature that the change is made in the new bill which provides for bi-partisan licensing boards for every city and town where the sale of Hquor is authorized. From eight men, four from each of the two political parties, nominated by the governor, the mayor of each town or ecity ap- points iwo from each party to com- prise such board for his town. POLITICS IN THE HOUSE. Townsend of Michigan Reviews Re- publican Legislation. ‘Washington, Feb. 4.—During the consideration of the Indian appropria- tion bill in the house of representa- tives Mr. Townsend of Michigan de- livered a speech in which he rehearsed the history of Republican legislation, ‘which, he said, he did for the purpose of “‘disputing the unwarranted claims of our Democratic brethren.” He was not, he said, defending the present ad- miristration. “It needs no defense with the American people,” he said. “Its record will illumine the pages of United States history and mark an epoch in popular government.” He said that the legislation of the last two congresses had been charged with producing the late financial disturb- ance and he undertook to refute the charge as untrue. He referred espe- clally to the railroad rate legislation. He knew, he said, of no self-respect- ing railroad manager who even claimed that the rate law injured the raflroad business. Some criminals, he said, were brought to justice and oth- ers were at least exposed to arrest, but railroad earnings grew no less. RESTS WITH THE VOTERS Bryan’s Reply to Question if He Is a Candidate. Philadelphia, Feb. 4—Willlam Jen- nings Bryan was entertained at lunch- eon by Roland S. Morris, president of the Pennsylvania Democratic club. Asked whether he was a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomina- tion Mr. Bryan dictated the following reply: “If the voters of the Democratic party want another than myself nom- inated at Denver they ought to in- struct their delegates to that effect. If they want me nominated they ought to instruct their delegates for me.” To one visitor Mr. Bryan said: “I kave noticed of late as I have gone about the country a marked change, especlally among the clergymen. They were very largely opposed to me be fore,’ but they have been studying af- fairs during the last ten years and their views have changed. This is a very hopeful sign, to my mind. Now 1 am invited by ministers to address conferences and they show in other ways that instead of being hostile they are interested.” Receiver for Big Power Company. Asheville, N. C., Feb. 4—A receiver has been appointed for the Whitney company of Rowan county, near Salis- bury, which has been developing wa- ter power at a point called The Nar- rows, thirty miles below Salisbury, where already $5,000,000 has been spent. S CITED AS._ A WARNING. Russian Papers Comment on Double Tragedy at Lisbon. St. Petersburg, Feb. 4—The traglc occurfences at Lisbon have created a deep impression on all sections of.80- clety here and the newspapers com- ment gravely upon the events that led up to. the double assassination. ‘The Russ, in a daring editorial, draws a thinly veiled parallel between the con- ditions in Portugal and those in Rus- sla and warns the government in ‘al- most 80 many words'that there 18 dan- gor of a similar ‘event here. The { Iamentable and awful tragedy in Por- tugal, this paper says, was due to the + fact that the king did nat understand his people and was attempting to stem by dictatorial methods of repres- slon the irresistible strivng of the masses to' take part in the govern- ment. The tragedy happened at the very moment when Premier Franco seemingly liad succeeded in restoring ~order by a series of unprecederted re- pressive measures. The Novoe Vremya, although at- tributing the direct execution of the plot to anarchists, to-whom all govern- ment is obnoxious, also connects the crime and the dictatorship of Franco, which met with both open and secret resistance from all political parties. The paper says that Franco proved himself a child in the face of a danger which evidently was known to a large number of the population. Othor newspapers express horror at the assassinations and volce thefr sympathy for the Portuguese nation and the bereaved queen ASKS RIFLES FOR KNIGHTS Head of Uniform Rank, K. of P., Would Arm His Men. ‘Washington, Feb. J—Major General Arthur J. Stobbart, head of the Uni- form Raunk, Knights of Pythias, is here to coufer with the war department on the question of equipping the uniform rank with rifiles. If the new militia bill, which practically places the na- tional guard on a war footing and makes each organization subject to the call of the president, passes there would be no local military organiza- tions left at home’ in event of an emergency. General Stobbart, who répresents 30,000 of the uniform rank, says that since congress gave a charter for the incorporation of the order of Knights of Pythias it is entirely proper to ask for arms for the uniform rank, ‘which has adopted regular army drill tactics. He ccnferred with Assistant Secre- tary of War Oliver and General Cro- zier, chief of the ordnance bureau, on the subject. Dynamite Found Coal. Washington, Feb. 4.—The com- manding officer of the battleship Ohio reports that while taking coal from the chartered collier Fortuna at Port of Spain, Trinidad, a stick of dynma- mite about five inches long was found. The Fortuna had a cargo of New River coal supplied by the Berwind-White Coal Mining company at Newport News, Va. This is the second time that dynamite has been found in coal turnished United States men-of-war. Aged Couple Killed by Gas. Wahpeton, N. D., Feb. 4—Mr. and Mrs. Peter Whitman, an aged couple, were both killed by coal gas at their home in this city. They were found dead by thelr sondnlaw, Sylvester Dietz, who went to the house with some provisions.

Reno, Nev., Feb. |—Presidential approval of the sermon delivered in the Catholic church here Sunday, Jan. 19, has been received by the author of the opinions, Rev. Father Tubman. A Jetter from .Theodore Roosevelt tells of his endorsement of the priest’s views on race suicide and the asser- tions that “celibacy is false to God, false to country and false to self,” are essentially upheld. The president ap- planded the sentiment that race sui- ‘cide, “aflinities” and “other outgrowths of modern marriages and divorces” de- serve more than condemnation from the clerzy. The priest’s utterances created a sensation at the time be- cause he said he desired no unmarried men or women to remain in his par- | ish, TORNADO N MISSISSIPPI. 8ix Persons Killed and Many Injured, Four Fatally.

In the summer of 1903 an exploring expedition set out from Cook inlet, Alaska, in an attempt to climb Mount McKinley, the highest peak on the American continent. They went in with a pack of cayuses through a hun- dred miles of tundra and then strug- gled for weeks over glaciers and through terrible hardships, to emerge at last on the Chulitna river, down which they rafted to civilization, as vepresented by Cook inlet. As they came in, worn, ragged, al- most dead Trom exposure and hunger, a tall old man strolled upshore with four white men's dogs, says Robert Dunn in “The Shameless Diary of an Explorer.” They asked him the news of the world. “Waal, yer know the pope’s dead,” he drawled, “and the cardinals beld a sort of convention and elected a new pope. “Roosevelt he's agreed to complain to the czar of Rooshia about them mas- sacreed Jews, and some one’s killed that Queen Dragon of Servia trying to Jump her claim to the throne.
