Too Much Study Bad.

Or. o. Sprague Paine, of New York,
has made a specially Of studying the
brain. This is what he says:
"Men very often die from overwork,
especially brain workers. Many men
study day and night and work day and
night almost, and SO overtax their brains
that they become mentally and physical
" incapable of performing their proper
work, and eventually break down ALTO
gether under the mental strain. These
then have to rest. and great care has to
be taken in order that they may fully re-
gain their health. In many cases they
have broken down SO completely that az
long as they live they are mere wrecks
Of their former selves, and in many cases
they fail to recover at all. A great many
are troubled with sleeplessness and fail
to pay any attention to this, thinking
that it is nothing at all. This is really a
very serious and dangerous condition to
be In. Persons who can't sleep can't
rest properly. Eventually the brain viii
wear out. 1t is absolutely impossible to
keep well without sleep. Men must
have sleep, or else suffer for 1t, and the
first organ Of the bsdy that will suffer
will be the brain. Unless the brain Is
properly rested the patient will break
down and perhaps become insane. "

Horticulture in Minnesota.

We have received copy OF the
annual report of the Minnesota
State Horticultural Society for the
year 1890, book of 395 pages. 1t
embraces the transactions OF the
society from March 81, 1889 to
March 81, 1890, also proceedings OF
the Minnesota Bee Keepers assocla-
ton, essays, reports, etc. 1t contains
much valuable information for all
those interested in gardening, raising
of vegetables, fruits, etc. The expert
ence of those who take an interest In
these matters is given and by the dls-
cussions at the meetings of the socl-
ety the best means to be adopted for
the cultivation of vegetables and
fruits is arrived at. We were partic-
vlarly interested in reading the dis
cussion of the question: "Can the
State of Minnesota compete with
Kalamazoo in raising celery? Quite
number of gentlemen took part in
the discussion and it was the opinion
of those who have had much expert
ence in cultivating this finest OF all
vegetables, in our opinion-that 1--WE
can compete with Kalamazoo or the
world"
AS regards the raising OF apples IN
Minnesota, J. o. Barrett of Browns
Valley, who takes a great interest and
has much experience in the cultiva-
ton of fruits and vegetables, said:
GA gentleman by the name of Mat
thews who keeps hotel on the east
shore of Big Stone Lake, about eight
miles from Ortonville, has quite a
variety of trees in bearing condition,
prominent among which is the Tran
scendent. The Transcendent trees
| were loaded with apples, and the
orchard promised a fine crop, at the
time ] visited him. A Mr.. Boman, OF
Big Stone County, about four miles
| north of Mr.. Matthews, had very
fine orchard, among those native
seedlings, and, had it not been tol
hail-storms that broke his trees down
he would have very successful or.
chard today. He set out new trees
and they are success. In my or
chard the Transcendent takes the

dignified silence through it all, and, in
the language of the street, sawed
wood" He had the combined Demo
cratic and Alliance forces to fight.
His opponents were, on the one hand
an able leader, and on the other one
of the strongest men that ever headed
a state ticket. And yet, while the
tickets of the G.. o. p. went to the
wall in other states, when tidal wave
swept over the country, wiping Kan
sas with its $4,000 majority out of the
Republican lists, defeating Hoard in
Wisconsin, and burying nearly all OF
the great Republican leaders in every
section of the country, VIM. r. Mer-
riam kept the North Star state in the
Republican column.
In view of these facts the Eye has
the honor to suggest him for the Re
publican vice-presidential nomination
in 1892. 1t is certainty that Blame
will be the nominee for president IL
the event that he lives and this vii
necessitate the selection of Western
man for second place. In view OF hi
ability, his demonstrated popularity
and his strength as leader in time
of political peril, the governor OF Min
nesota is unquestionably the man TO

The Canning Industry.

A good deal was said before cleo
ton in relation to the increase of the
duty on imported tin. Of course nc
American, be he Republican, Demo
crat, Alliance or Prohibitionist,
desires to see the duty so high on any
imported article that it will work an
injury to the great mass of our peo-
pie or to our manufacturing Industries.
And in this connection it might be
interesting to read from a statement
made.by Richardson & Robbins of
Dover, Del, who have been engaged
in the canning industry for thirty y-five
years, what difference the new tariff
will really make in the cost of the tin
cans used in that business.
The firm use tin plate weighing
from 95 to 108 pounds per box. A
box of tin weighing 108 pounds will
make, they say, twenty-five and a
half dozen three-pound cans. The
increased tariff is / 1-5 cents a pound,
making $1.30 per box, or 81 cents per
dozen of three-pound cans. For two
pound cans the increase is equal to
Al cents dozen; for one-pound cans
to 3 cents dozen; for one-half pound
cans to 2 cents dozen, and for one.
quarter pound cans to II cents a
dozen.
Three-pound cans filed with toma-
toes, they say, sell for an average
price Of ST. a dozen, making the addi-
ton to the cost 6 per cent. On such
cans filed with peaches, pears or
other fruit sell for So a dozen, the. In
crease will be 3 per cent. On two
pound cans filed with corn, peas, &C.,
average price is $1.75 dozen, the in
crease will be u per cent On one
pound cans Of Holsters or fish will be

The Indians.

Judging from all accounts we are
of the opinion that there is great
danger of a general uprisising of the
western tribes of Indians.
Alexander Mckenzie, late of Bis
marck, who is well posted upon the
nature and habits of the Indians, is
of the opinion that the new religious
craze threatens serious results. He
says: 81 don't trust any Indian.
They have murder in their hearts, and
it seems to me that the present pro-
lection afforded by the government to
the settlers upon the upper Missouri
is totally inadequate and should be
increased It is reported that Gen
Miles is thoroughly impressed with
the seriousness of the situation. We
sincerely hope SO. Gen. Miles is a
good Indian fighter and d if hf,fa6
have his way, says the Minneapolis
Tribune,we areo the opinion that the
savages will not be allowed to get
started very far on the war-path. But
the people on the frontier are becom-
ing thoroughly alarmed, and some OF
them are abandoning their homes and
coming within the lines of military
protection. This is the safest course
they can pursue, but it involves them
in severe losses-losses which the
government should make up to them
since it is the all too lenient manner
Of dealing with the former hostiles
that now gives the red devils courage
to talk of assuming the offensive.

Words of wisdom from the last
number of School Education: To re-
quire every child to learn to read and
write the Edglish language, either in
public of private school, would seem
to be no hardship, neither is it unwar-
ranted interference with the rights OF
parents. The citizen should be able
to speak the language of his country,
to read its newspapers, and-need we
say 1.-THE vote he casts on election
day. Foreigners must expect their
children to become Americanized.
Foreign societies cannot be transplan-
ted to our soil with any well grounded
hope Of permanently maintaining their
Old World customs, language, or
schools. All must, sooner or later,
feel the thrill, the Transforming power
of our life. The men and women
from over the sea are wslceme to our
shores, in the hope that their children
at least may love our New World
ways, and grow up intelligent citi-
zens, instead of foreigners, in the
country of their parents adoption.

That moral leper, whom the indul-

Mr.. Owen expressed himself as op-
posed to the party caucus system, land
ssid he regarded with disfavor any
determination on the part of the Alli-
ance to go into Democratic caucus
for the purpose of organizing the
house. He thought that the Alliance
ought to put up a candidate for
speaker and let the other parties DO
the same, and leave the result to be
determined In the regular session OF
the house. He thought that the OBJ
ject of the Alliance members should
be to elect the man speaker who was
best qualified for the position, no mat
II sslssti1er lsttii1er he was as 4 iliaRee man,
Democrat or Republican.
'Much of the future of the Alliance
party" he continued, depends upon
the action Of its representatives in the
legislature. I do not believe in radi-
cal legislation; in fact ! am in favor OF
just as little legislation as possible to
bring about the economic reforms
which we regard as necessary. The
trouble with most third party move
ments is that they are animated by a
spirit OF hatred and revenge toward
the old political organizations and
their legislation is apt to reflect that
spirit. In snch cases a reaction al
ways comes and the new party loses
in the end. I shall endeavor to have
as little to say about the work OF oui
members in the next Legislature as
possible. but if my advice is sought
shall counsel legislation which shall
be equitable and fair to all classes o.
society. What Legislation we need il

It is suggested that the Democrats
had better go little slow and not en-
Joy too much the foreign abuse OF
Major Mckinley, or foreign rejoicing
over the recent Democratic victory.
The nfar4asee4f q fiefaee demonstration is not
likely to injure Major McKinleys
political prospects for the future, nor
will if tend to hasten repeal OF, or
even change in, the measure OF
which he was the author. Foreign
allies, in the long run, are not apt to
prove helpful to political parties in
this country, and united foreign abuse
of a public man in this country will
hardly have the effect of driving the
object of abuse to private life.

What Mr.. Owen Says.

The following views in relation to the
future of the Alliance party and as to
its coalition with other parties, as re-
Gently expressed by S. M. Owen, will
be read with interest by the readers
of the TRIBUNE. 1t is good, sound,
common sense talk, and well worthy
of perusal. These remarks byMr. Owen
were made to reporter of the Minnez
apolis Times. Among his most Inn
portant observations was the state
ment that he was radically opposed
to coalition or fusion with any party.
cit has been the history of all, inde-
pendent movements in this country,
he continued, ''that they have begun
to die the minute they formed coali-
ton with any other party. This was
true of the greenback and granger
parties and also of the old liberal
movement. The proposed coalition
is with the Democratic party but there
is no logical reason for it. There il
nothing in common between the ALI.
ance and Democratic parties except
the tariff. In all of my campaign
speeches have mentioned that thu
Democratic party did not differ ma
terially from the Republican party
except on the question of the tariff
There is the same subserviency to thu
capitalistic influences Of the country

form or relief to the people is CON
cerned. The fact is the Democratic
party is not progressive party or re-
form party and never was. The only
reason it didn't die long ago was on
account of its negative qualities. ]
believe that the administration of the
Democratic party will disappoint the
people, and that its big majorities
throughout the country are the worst
thing that could have happened to it
This is one of the reasons have for
the opinion that the necessity for the
Alliance party will be greater in 1892
than it was during the present cam
paign. The new party will be the
only refuge for many dissatisfied Re-
pubicans and Democrats alike. Every
thing in this country is drifting tow
ard capital, and the present political
parties are incapable of destiny with
this question as the old Ante Bellum
parties were of dealing with human
slavery. Capital doesn't care which
party is in power. Either the Repub-
lican or Democratic party can be
manipulated to suit its purpose.
seThe contest now is between the
man and the dollar, and Ibelieve that
the time has come when the man is
going to prove more potent factor
than the dollar. There is disposi-
tion to sit down on Legislators who
play into the hands of corporations
and whose official acts are the subject
Of suspicion. / have noticed this in
several conspicuous instances in the
last campaign. And in this connec-
tion I want to say that the members
