Thus we assume that it is a short cake course. We inquire to know if there is'any significance in the gévernors of the Northwest getting out of their states just before Thanksgiving day? At Granite Falls an Indian to make spending money, caught 24 skunks. No question but that he can pick up a few scents that way. “Billy Sunday, the baseball player and Evangélist,” says the Stillwater| Gazette, “is going to Fargo where he expects to make a few hits and some money.” Just a little whilg 1onger and you will be able to do your Christmas shopping and come home feelng as if you had been run through a meat chopper. Alas and alack, there is a shortage in the sauerkraut supply and New Ulm has gone into mourning for 30 days. O du leber Strohsack! Das ist doch zum haar ousreissen. Jetz werden wir alle verhungern. DON'T BE TOO SURE ABOUT IT. If the hot air of its columns can melt away opposition, the St. Paul Dispatch will see to it that there is no extra sesion of the legislature this winter. Not that St. Paul wouldn’t lick its chops with what crumbs it might be able to gather up from reapportion- ment. It is natural that it would, so it must be the nightmare of railroad legislation which causes the somnam- bulist Dispatch to wander about in this- fashion: “Thé notion should not be fosteréd that there is a Northern Minnesota and a Southern Minnesota, in the sense of diversity of interest, or that the meéting of the Northern Minne- sota Development association about to be held in St. Cloud is a sectional affair. There is a north part of Min- nesota and a south part of Minne- sota, but they are parts of the same thing and all in both ends of the state are concerned in whatever is of advantage to any section. The work the association is endeavoring to car- ry on is important to every citizen of the state and all are interested. “The northern part of the state, as was natural, has been neglected by the early settlers who remained in the southern counties made acces- sible to markets by the railway de- velopment of the pioneer days. That time Was gone. Railway lines have been extended to practically all parts of Northern Minnesota and| those districts are due to receive the consideration to which their natural advantages entitle them. The ‘work of directing attention to the wealth of opportunities may be headed by those in the north, as best qualified to know the needs and advantages | by attempting to of the undeveloped portions of the state, but it concerns everyone in the state. N “The association has before it a wide field of opportunity.- It should not permit sectional spirit to have any place in its make-up, nor should the introduction ‘of 'sectional politics be tolerated.” Candidly, we believe the Dispatch is making a mistake, if it wishes to aid the North, or the state at large, cool the atmos- phere of the Sf. Cloud- convention with such suggestions as offered above. The North certainly does not look upen the citizens of the South with any degree of'malice. In fact, the North feels that were the ques- tion' of adding repreSentation to the agricultural districts of - the. North left'to a vote, the southeérners would pile'up a majority in its favor that would yiake the Washington monu- men't look like a toothpick. But the” Dispatch is treading on dangerous ground when, in subtlé words, it raises the question of “sec- tiondl polities,” for the ‘North has reached that crisis in its'pleas for a decent legislative representation— pleas that have been heard by the South, but’ which now appear are being ignored by a' few who hold great' power,—and in"this there is a real’ peril: . Months dgo the faint cry of state diviSion was heatd. That cry, ag- gravated by continual indifféretice to this’part of thé state’s need, is apt to start something” amd thosé who nevér beforé have entertained the idea, if denled a “square deal” and that méans’ prompt reapportionment, may' unite their energies and if such a cainpaign ever starts it may be that those who now are calmly willing to permit the present unjust represen- tation will be ' glad enough indeed to grant present re- quests, with a'good deal to boot. With her iron mines, her forests and her farms Northern Minnesota could, if driven to it, go along pretty well by herself and it is a fact that she is getting weary of having the tail wag the dog. If fear of “sectional politics” causes the St. Cloud convention to be a pink tea affair so far as action on reapportionment is concerned, state division is likely to loom large. to continue o R R R R OB RO RORCY © Politics and Politicians. 4 PPOOOOOOOOOOO® OO William J. Bryan is enjoying a va- cation eruise in the West Indies. Henry T. Hunt, mayor-elect of Cincinnati, is only 33 years old. Canton, Ohio, the old home of President McKinley, has elected a ‘So- cialist mayor. St. Louis will make bids for both the Republiéan and Democratic na- tional conventions. Pendleton, Oregon, will' bold a special election next week to vote on the proposal to adopt the commis- sion plan of government. Mathias J. Scholey, mayor of Ken- osha, has announceéd his intention to seek thé Democratic nomination for governor of Wisconsin next year. It is rumored in Indiana that at the next Democratic national con- vention the name of Senator John W. Kern will be presented for the presi- dential nomination. A convention is to be held in Los Angeles in January to form a politi- cal organization of woman voters, to be known as the California Women’s Progressive League. At its meeting in Little Rock next month the Arkansas Democratic State committee will probably adopt a res- olution providing for the holding of a presidential primary. Political rumor has it that if Wil- liam R. Hearst caniot land the Dem- ocratic presidéntial nomination for himself he would like to see it go to Mayor Carter Harrison of Chicago. Edwin Lee, chairman of the In- diana Republican State committee, has withdrawn from the race for re- election, leaving the contest between Harry 8. New of Indianapolis and Will H. Hays of Sullivan. An organization of North Dakota Democrats has' been effected and clubs will be organized all over the State for the purpose of securing the 1912 vice presidential nomination for Governor John Burke. When Mayor-elect Joseph Dennis of Belle Center, Ohio, assumes his of- fice the first of the year he will have the distinction of being the oldest municipal executive in the United States. Mr. Dennis is in his 86th Yyear. Governor Harmon of Ohio, Gover- nor Morris of Montana, former Gov- ernor Folk of Missouri and several other Democratic Teaders of national Prominénce are scheduled to address a great rally of Democrats of the Nortliwest to be held in Fargo in January. The Republican’ ‘State committee of “West- Virginia has decided in fay- or of & State-wide primary, with the Staté as a unit, for 1912. The decis- ion was reached only after a pro-|f longed fight by a number of promi- nent Republican leaders, who fav: ored the socalled district umit plam. United States Senator William Al- den Smith of Michigan claims the unique distinction of being the only member of Congress whose mother is a qualified yoter. Mrs: Smith, who' is 76 years:old, is a resident of>San- ta Ana, Cal, and has registered to vote at the. next election there. “1 do not believe there is any oth- er medicine (8o good for whooping|) cough- as Chamberlain’s Cough -Rem- edy,” writes Mrs, .

Plucking smep‘ The pure bred sheep'in Shetland are not ‘shorn, but plucked. - The process takes -place generally in- June, when thé‘fiéete is ‘“Tipe” and the silky wool | can 'be pulled off without pain. This is called “roofng” and 1s much less dam- aging to the young fiber than clipping ‘with shears. The wool when thus han- dled retains” its pecullar softness, so that any one of experfence can tell whether the material of a knitted ar- ticle has been plucked or- shorn. It ripens first ‘upon the neck and shoul- ders, so that sheep half puljed resem- ble in" some sort a poodle that' is clipped. We must suppose that harsher- handling prevailed at one time, for we read that in 1616 the ‘Scottish privy council spoke of the custom as still kept up “in some remote and uncivil places,” and James 1. wrote to tell land under penalfy of a fine. Upon this théy passed an act on March 17, 1616, deploring the destruction of sheep thus caused and imposing similar‘fines on those who should persist inthe practice. B Continental Currency. Continental currency notes were in July, 1780, worth 2 cents on fhe dollar, and it took a “wagon load of currency to buy a wagon load of provisions.” - The Blame.
