The enormous appropriations made by the late session of congress for one tbLing or another form one of the evil things that are associated with good times, and show that human nature sub the same in the national lature as it is in the common council of a city where taxes are com- ing in treely and no very close watch is kept upon the output of the treasury. ‘The action of congress in appropri- iting gigantic sums of money fur pur- poses more or less necessary is ap evi- de tbat some people, at least, are getting into the way of thinking that there is no end to good times. —It is invariably the case that whenever prosperity prevails for any length of time, an unfortunately large percent- age of the people get the idea that it is alw yuing tuo be that way, and movey that comes easy goes easy. Nation, states, counties, cities and villages dip into the prosperous pocketbooks of their taxpayers, and indulge in extravagances that would be shuddered at during periods of de- pression. Ifa school building, a pust- office, a city hall, or a state capitol is to be built, it must be the tinest that money can buy. Tuen wheu the frosts of another epoch of depression set in aud the pocketbooks of the tax- payers cease to be prosperous, the ex- Lravageuces of tbe years of plenty drag wearily through the years of famine. An excellent example of this ten- dency is given by the so-called ‘‘omni- ‘bus public buildings bill,” passed by the late session of congress, drawing cae | opi of the application of the game called “Jog-rolling.” Nearly 200 committees in this country that thought it would be a nice thing to have a federal building all around pooled their issues and pushed the bil! through congress. In some cases the expendi- tures are needed, but many peity villages that-have no earthly use for a federal building except to boom their towns and give employment to their labor, profit by the bill and will have handsome buildings erected at the expense of the government. The river and harbor bill, which called for appropriations amounting to $65,000,000, contains many items that -are ridiculous, and that can only be useful im gaining votes for the congressmen that helped put them through.—Duluth Hearld. The Scandinavian as a Citizen. W. E. Curtiss, in the Chicago Record-Herald, thus praises ‘the Norwegians and Swedes, whu by the way, comprise the larger part of the immigration to this~ state at the present time: ‘‘I suppose the Nor- wegians and Swedes are the most prosperous of any foreign-born citizen we have in the United States. Their intelligence, industry and frugality enable them to earn better wages than the natives of auy Other country, not excepting the Germans. One seldom finds a Swede or a Nor- wegian out of employment. You never see a Swedish ur a Norwegian tramp. ndinavians ure preferred to any other race by the employers of labor hecause they are honest, sober, reliable and intelligent. If a census of the jails, prisons and poorhouses were taken tne number of Scandi- naviaus would be surprisingly small. As I wid you in my letters last summer, poorhouses are nob known in Norway and Sweden, and there are no illiterates in either country. If a man or woman cannot read or write because he or she has forgotten Was He Murdered? The following from the Duluth News Tribune will be read with in terest by many Rapidsites who were well acquainted with Sam Heller, when he lived in Duluth: Was Sam Heller murdered on the trail between Montana and the ‘Thunder Mountain district in Idaho? That now seems to be the prevailing on in many quarters, About two weeks ago it was reported that Mr. Heller had Leen killed in the districs described, but his brother, Ben Hel- ler, formerly of Duluth but now of Mivneapolis, discredited the rumor and the matter dropped cut of the public mind. Last night, however, it was learned from reliable and well informed sources that the relatives of Sam Heller have begun to consider the news true. Ben Heller wrote to the authorities in the Thunder Mountain district. and the replies which he received, while not abso- luiely definite, went far to confirm the original reports. It was stated that the body of a man who was _ sup- posed to be Sam Heller was found on the trail, and that the head was practically severed from the trunk. ‘The face was so battered aud decom posed that identification was impos- sible. A business partner of Sam Heller in Montana was the first to suspect that the dead man on the trail was Heller. His name is Merrill and he communicated his fears to friends of Heller in Duluth and Min- neapolis. It is also reported that the man supposed to be Heller was shot and that the discharge of the gun blew one side of his face away.

ARE NOT BARRED The Order of Modern Samaritans Amends Articles Admitting Women. ‘The Modern Samaritans, the frater- nal organization which was founded in, Duluth, amended its articles of incorporation yesterday so as to admit women, says the Duluth Herald. Heretofore only those of the sterner sex were eligible, and while the head council of the order has not decided that women will be allowed to enter into the mystic chamber of Samaritan- ship. still it is in a position to do so if the members should so desire. Atithe sume time the fact is brought out that women are considered better insuraoce risks than men. That is the belief generally among the insur- ance men and they give good reasons. In the fisst place, it is stated that women lead quieter lives than the men and for the most part their habits are better. It is seldom that 4a woman smokes cigarets, notwith- standing the stories sent out by some of the’Sunday papers. It is a notori- ous fact, too, that in every community. more old women are to be found than men of advanced age.” Their occu- pations in life are less strenuous, and in fact there are very few who are engaged in vocations that would be termed hazardous. These facts have been considered by the Modern Samaritans and the subject will come up for serious consideration by the bead council of the order within a few weeks. ¢ Another change in the articles deals with the terms of members 6f the executive board. Heretofo.e the length of time éach member served was nine years, there being one out- going conmitteeman each year, Now the term is only three years and three new directors will be ¢! annually. ‘ Daily shipments of all kinds « green stuff received at Metzger’s, hosen | by food for reflecuon.
