Judge Meeker was a charter mem- ber of the Minnesota Histori- cal society, established in 1849, one of the first regents of the university, 1851, and a member of the constitutional convention, 1857. He owned a large tract of land on the east bank of the Mississippi below the Falls of St. An- including Meeker’s Island. His death occurred in 1873. The county named in honor of Judge Meeker was established in 1856. thony, XXk kA hkkk kKA d A Ak A XA A AKX KA AT Ak d Ak kkhkx Xk hkw TR KKK KKK KK KKK Some people are always waiting for opportunity to take them by the hand. It never does and it never will. Don't sit still and wait for oppor- tunity to come to you. Go out and hunt it, and hunt till you find it. It's flirting with you every day in the year, every hour in the day. One of the greatest opportunities lies in what you may accomplish in the aid of your home town, for what is good for the town is even better for you. Your future is not up to opportu- nity, it is up to you A newspaper is in no sense a child cf charity. It earns twice over every dollar it receives, and it is second to no enterprise in contributing to the upbuilding of any community. Its patrons reap far more henefits from its pages than its publishers, and in asking for the support of the com- munity, it asks for no more than in all fairness belongs to it, though generally it receives less.—St. Paul Progress. A friend suggests to us that all this note writing which the president has indulged in since the Lusitania was sunk may not be labor lost after all. There will have to be a letter of .ac- ceptance after the St. Louis conven- tion, you know. This is all .very true, but we are wandering how “strict accountability’” and all the other phrases of the past year are going to fit into a document like that. It is reported that an organized attack on the state highway commis- sion is scheduled for the next legis- lature.

Too long have the rights and opin- jons of womankind been ignored in the settlement of the great questions of this day. But when was any great question settled? And no great question will ever be settled until women are admitted to the franchise privilege equally with man.—Little Falls Transcrip! Hens are laying for South Dakota prohibition today.
