Chairman Mills, of the House
Ways and Means committee, has all
New England laughing at him In
the course of Il speech at Providence,
Rhode Island, the other day, he made
q plea to the stocking manufacturers
not to come to Congress asking for
protection on seamless stockings,
on the ground that they could not be
made ill this country anyhow, as they
are manufactured ''by a carefully
guarded secret process, only known to
foreigners" The fun comes in with
the statement that this so-caIIed
foreign secret process Is an American
invention, copied III Europe, and that
80 per cent Of the seamless stockings
sold in the United States are made in
this country. The incident only &C
centuates the stupidity of putting an
ignoramus at the head of committee
which is framing a tariff bill.-Toledo

AT Glenwood, Minnesota, they
have paper called the Central
Minnesotian," whose editor is either n
man who says things without knowing
the truth or fnlsity Of his assertions, or
else he wilfully misrepresents things.
In his issue Of last week he is quoted
as saying, 'Duluth is the natural ship
ping point from all points in Mime
sofa during eight or ten months in the
year. The Superior season is seven
months Just why our Minnesota
brother should thus 90 out of his way
to misrepresent Superior, and deliber-
ately give to his readers for fact
that which is an open falsehood is
more than we can now understand.
The falsehood lies Ia the statement
regarding Duluth. Any five year old
school boy ought to be spanked that
did not know that the head
waters of Lake Sup,sior was
closed from navigation by ice for
more than two months in
the year. Seyen months Of Lake
navigation is about all we can count
on per year and the Duluth and Su-
perior harbors open at nearly the
same time as a rule, but oftencr than
to the contrary is the Superior season
the longest by from one to two weeks,
but for spring work this does not
amount to much as the boats will not
start for this port until the way is
pretty clear from ice at the 800
and other points. \ few days in the
closing up season Is sometimes a great
help to shippers. There is not act
ual difference enough IN the two ports
to skirmish about, but when Il paper
sees fit to make the positive differ
ence these months or even one month
it is time to call a halt. viii the
Central Minnesotian please correct?

1t does not do much good to warn
the small boy of the danger of "catch-
ing on" to every sleigh that comes
along, but in giving the warning we
are doing ,ur duty, and here is very
impressive warning which we take
from the Daily Inter Ocean of Tues
day morning:
As the dryer of one Of Dighton &
Co. 5 coal teams was passing in front
of the post-oifice Yesterday afternoon
about five o'clock, little Dannie Nc
Pherson, son of James Mcpherson,
caught onto the box and attempted to
ride on the runners. BY some mishap
he lost his hold, and fell under the
sled, one o. the runners passing oyer
his leg. Mr.. John McGee and an
other gentleman at once rushed to the
boy rs he cried out. and Mr.. Niece
picked him up in his arms and hasti-
" carried him to the office of DR.
Connors who set the little limb hasti-
ly, after which the little fellow was
carried home. His leg suffered n
comminuted compound fracture be-
low the knee. The little fellow was
game all through, hardly moan
passing his lips rs the limb was being
set"
This item docs tell all either. The
doctor said in all probability the lit
tie fellow would loose his leg, and
that if he did not loose his life he
should think it fortunate indeed.

Judge Dcnman struck the English
gentry blow between the eyes that
staggered them, when he decided that
poaching was only misdemeanor
and that keepers have no right to ar
rest and hunt them as they would

opinion which the jury SO strongly
conceded in that they acquitted the
poacher who was on trial, the COM

of the English nobility, and all peo-
pie outside of the nobility will rise up
