And the snow fell, and the rain poured, and the sun shone, and the evangelist preached, and yet Spring is not here. In Topeka, Kansas, two women have been apointed on ~the police Wonder if they have to be buttoned up the back. Some scamp has been mean enough to suggest that this morning’s snow storm was due to the fact that Cap- tain Roald Amundson, discoverer of the South pole, was hanging around the neighborhood. You couldn’t make them believe it at Crookston. They have arranged for fine weather there next Saturday, when the captain will be the big drawing card in the cele- bration of Norwegian Independence day in that city. “Capital and Labor are partners. The department of Labor is to prove a promoter of industrial peace.” These are direct quotations from a statement made by Hon. Willlam B. Wilson, secretary of the department of Labor, relative to the newly organ- ized Federal Department which . lie controls. : Questions put to Mr. Wilson by the editor of The Nation’s Business, the official organ of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States of America, led to replies clearly defin- ing the opinion of Mr, Wilson as to the great seryice which the Depart- ment of Labor may and can render in the future business affairs of the Nation. Secretary Wilson is a man of peculiar mental sincerity and ser- iousness and he regards the Depart- ment of Labor as being built for all time and not merely as temporary in its influences, or called upon to deal with transient expedients of adjust- ment between capital and labor. Eight Hours For P, M.’s The announcement by Postmaster General Burleson that appointees to offices of the presdieritial class will hereafter be expected to giye their entire time to the duties of their position is typical of the purpose of the methods of the Wilson adminis- tration. Public office is to be made in reality a public trust.. The lolling days of sinecures in the postal serv- lce are at.an end. Postmaster, high as well as low, are to be paid not for Dpolitical favors they have done in the past or may do in the future, but for the work they perform. In short, the Government’s business is to be placed upon the same basis of effic- iency and fdithfulness that private business requires. Postmaster General Burleson con- tends that if clerks and carriers are required by law to serve eight hours daily, the postmaster, who is the highest paid employee of ' the officel| i “ghould give at least an equivalent in time and effort.” * Hence his declnra— tion: "In making new. appotntmem.s to. oflleeu of the presidential grade the postofice department will - require hereafter, in addition to the qualifi- datlann with respect to abimy, char- acter and ex);eflence and from_ the appointee.- that .his whole business time will be davoted the duties of the mmou to whlc)x ‘he i} sinecures ‘and favoritism are -sur- planted by thoroughgoing: tests ; of| capacity and results in.the omehilu apnointed, the public’s business wl\l ¢ | be carried on as it should be and 2 le 1n0.ergutg will be duly protected. : REMARKABLE STORY OF -rnt FINDING OF DIAMOND. “Two hundred years agoa peasant family lived in a Swiss hamlet, and one evening a terrific storm broke , and amid the incessant the cottage. Naxt day the peasant as he refully contemplated. the smoking ruins, noticed a deep fissure.in the gar- den leadlng to the .root of & pine tres. blue light shone fittully,” is ‘the hezln- ning of a strange -story from Lyons that, says the~Paris correspondent of. the London Standard, reads “just like & fairy tale.” Hurriedly making the sign of the crogs, the man fled, but the following morning returning and saw the sai curious “gleam, like & star, from the depths of the furrow cleft by the thun- derbolt. Thrusting his hand down he brought out a marvelc stone--still darting uncanny rays of light. Much disturbed in his mind, the hon- est peasant took his find to the par ish priest, who said; “The stone came to you from heaven and it is the finger of God that placed it in your field. As long as you keep it you and yours will be safe from storms and evil " Faithtully respecting the s wordd, the stone been even since religlously preserved by the succeeding generations of the family. ut it has never brought much luck, the last survivors being now without a penny. The present pos- sessor, a woman forty-five years old, is married and the mother of twelve chil- dren, five of ‘'whom are ‘still living, while a thirteenth is expected shortly. A few years ago she and her husband left their native village-and went to Gern, where they started a small busi- ness which failed,” continued the story. “They then came ‘to Lyons, where they have since lived a hand to mouth existence.” Reduced to the last extremity of want, they decided to part with the famous thunderbolt stone, and took it to a well knowa jew- eler. “Petrified with astonishment at see- ing such a splendid diamond in the possession of almost a beggar woman, the jeweler informed the police, and not till the family’ had sent to Switzerland for documents certifying that the dlamond had really belonged to them for the last 200 years was the :woman allowed to regain posses- sion of the precious pebble, “Since then she has been besieged from. morning till night with nh:_!ud offers of the hundredth part of the value of the diamond, which has been axamined and vhotoeranhed AR x H X We lru Iohfien PIN TICKETS oummn LABELS No need to und mmldq ot Bemidji for th '.l‘lo' Ploneer Butply Store Can’ Save ‘You Money . : BEMIDJT PIONEER PUB. 00. ifilfiifii!fiifilfiilflfl#{lfli i{i&ifll{iifii{lf{{*&i{i{: Do you want B, BEST.
