If business keeps up it will be on- ly a few more days until there are enough candidates for governor to form a football team. A printer who has been working on a southern Minnesota paper is looking for a new joh. His editor had a burning editorial in which he exclaimed, “Let women stand up for their rights,” and the fool composi- tor put a “t”” where the “r” should be in “rights.” IT SURELY IS. It surely is unlawful to drink in- toxicating liquor on a railroad train in Minnesota. A couple of citizens of forelgn birth, on their way to the land of waving pines in Northern Minnesota, where they were to rusti- | cate in a logging camp at $26 per, made the error of taking a drink of whisky from a bottle, on a car, right in the presence of the conductor. He had the pair arrested, they were fined $25 and costs or 30 days in durance vile. They accepted the latter.— Stillwater Gazette. - HE KNOWS IT ALL. Few men are fond of Major Gall. He is the man who knows it all. His voice is blustering and loud, and when he gets into a crowd he deftly wields his tireless jaw, and what he says ig final law. If you should say the weather’s warm, the Major then will rant and storm, and say it's cold as all get -out, and put your argu- ments to rout. If you concerning books discourse, the Major rises, fierce and hoarse, and pushes langu- age through his face, and shows that you are off your base. If ydu refer to works of art, he then upsets your apple cart, and proves your criticisms weak—you have no right to think or speak. No odds what subject may come up—a Grecian urn or setter pup, a Roman bronze or Plutarch’s “Lives,” the groundhog or case of hives, a sermon or a quilting bee, the Major with his snickersnee, which is another name for tongue, hews down opponents old and young. And so men shy at Major Gall, that grand old sport who knows it all.—Walt Mason.

Milling interests throughout the country and a wide range of other industries as well are vitally inter- ested in the hearing on the question of substitution of tonnage in transit, which will be begun by the Inter- state Commerce Commission in Wash- ington Monday.

The eminent traveler, james Bruce, was highly touchy whenever his ver- acity was called into question. It happened that, when dining out one day at a friend's house, one of the guests observed “that it was impos- sible that the natives of Abyssinia could eat raw meat.”” Without mak- ing any reply, Bruce forwith left the table, and before long returned from the kitchen with a piece of raw beef- steak, peppered and salted in the Abyssinfan fashion. Placing this in front of the guest who had doubted his word, he said: “Sir, you will eat that or fight me!” The guest pre- || ferred the former alternative, there- || upon Bruce calmly observed, “Now, sir, you will never say again that it Is impossible.” Early at the Ivories.
