Nearly 1,000,000 new farms have been created in the United States during the last ten years. In the last ten years the total number of farms has increased 18 per cent. In the older states from Ohio eastward there has been going on for more than twenty years a tendency toward the amalgamation of farms distant from market into larger holdings. All over the northern part of the state candidates for the legislature are signing written pledges promis- ing to stand for re-apportionment, good roads, rural consolidation of schools, aid for the immigration bureau and state assistance for roads through state land, so W. R. Mac- kenzie, secretary of the Northern Minnesota Development association reports.—Warren Register. When one remembers that in the ordinary column of type there are 10,000 pieces of type, and there are seven wrong positions each letter may be put in, and therefore 70,000 chances in a column to make errors, besides millions of chances for trans- position, he will not be too critical. In the sentence “to be or notto be,” by transposition alone it is possible to make 2,226,022 errors. So you see the perplexity that besets the printer.—Ex. CANNON. Render at least to Cannon the ad- miration due a grizzly, stubborn, vet- eran, wounded and beaten by Time and a changed age, asking no quar- ter in his fight for a lost cause. There is no milk in his liver. He does not hide, he takes his cuts in front, and his blood is still red. Times have changed but Cannon has not changed. He was born in an era when his type was the politi- cal hero, when material achievement was the first virtue., Press, maga- zine and pulpit, which now see in personal wealth suspicion of crime, then praised the “Captain of Indus- try;” it was a term of laudation, not of reproach. Parents held up their little sons to see and to emurate. That was a normal and necessary era in our history. The nation was building its physical body. We, of the newer generation, have grown to see that for the glory of mere material greatness,—making the biggest engines, exporting the most cotton, killing the most hogs,— we were drifting to commercial oli- garcy and despotism. And the strug- corporation and commercial crea- tions is the struggle of this gene: tion. S But Cannon cannot see this. You cannot teach an old dog new tricks. To him government still exists only to stimulate and foster great trade undertakings. He is not opposed to the preservation of commercial democracy among the masses of the people; be simply does not see the dangers. ahead; or admit that there are such dangers ahead. . So he acts after his own lights. Jaunty in his gnarled maturity he grips a new cigar in his teeth, rolls back his sleeve, and delclares “he’ll die fighting.” It is not so far from the winning hand to the discard. Never quit pulling unless you want to bave the work still harder in an effort to come back. The man who would settle differ- ences between employerand employee will learn that both ure unreasonable. A man may be right and still be left if he does not get on the cars when the bell rings, TRY T0 HOLD UP VESSEL AT SEA Two Passengers Attempt foTake Possession of Ship. FRureka, Cal., Aug. 23.—The Alaska Pacific Steamship company’s liner Buckman was held up at sea off this port by, two passengers. Captain Wood was shot and killed by one of the men while resisting. The second man was overpowered by the engine room crew. The passenger who shot the captain jumped overboard with life preservers. The Buckman was en route from Seattle to San Francisco. At 2:13 in the morning Fred Thomas, a passen- ger, went to the captain’s room,. while an accomplice descended to the engine room. Both men were armed and they attempted to take possession of the vessel. Captain Wood refused to com- ply with Thomas’ demands and was shot dead. Thomas ran out of the room and, seeing his plans had mis- carried, strapped on a life preserver and leaped into the sea. In the meantime the accomplice.had encountered resistance in the engine room. He was overpowered and placed in frons. The Buckman is now pro- ceeding to San Francisco in charge of First Officer Brennan.
