There are no legitimate local politics
in Stearns county. The democratic
party, with majority greater than the
total republican vote, is chopped into
wa:.:ng factions, each strongly for the
ascemdancy, employing all sorts of lic-
climate means to secure the loaves and
fishes OF official position. Caucuses are
packed, conventions manipulated-and
no matter what the result, a crowd OF
hungry and disappointed politicians inn
mediately enter into conspiracy to beat
the regulars-if anything can be said to
be regular which emanates from any
such irregular mob as the average demo-
cratic convention in Stearns county.
And then the trouble begins. Boilers
bolt, independents nominate themselves,
combinations aggregate, intrigue runs
riot, and 10, the canvass is born. The
boilers Of the previous canvass become
the regular nominees, and the old-time
wheel horses arc leading a bolt. Every
device is resorted to for the purpose of
psrsuading, terrifying and capturing
votes. Religious, sectional and national
prejudices are appealed to; misrepresen-
tation and straw-promises, substantial
rewards and corrupting influences which
determine results. Bitterness, dishonesty
and decentralization results, and success

The above is tar from an overdrawn
statement of the methods and practices
Cf the average canvass in Stearns county.
How about the miuority-are its skirts
clean and immaculate? Far from it.
Demon allied by the knowledge of its
hopeless minority, it has ceased to be
distinctive party, in the better sense of
the word, and has degenerated into a
little trading stock. Without ambition
the sole question presented to it is not
whom can we elect? but rather, whom
can we beat Its mission and policy is
emphatically destructive-not construc-
tive. 1t cannot act as unit any more

warfare Nor does it mitigate the evil
to make straight party nominations.
knowing that defeat is inevitable along
party lines, it will not adhere to them.
The corruption of the majority is con-
tagious. Such an illogical and mel
ancholy condition of affairs is more
readily explained than corrected-al-
though the case is not hopeless:
The trouble lies III the fact that the
vote is not distributed, but lies in solid
blocks, held together by the cohesive in
fuence of nationality and religion. Take
samples to illustrate. they arc not iso-
lated cases, nor strained specimens:

the remainder of the country revolves
about it, dependent upon it for food, for

power. To reach any portion of this

Give the Boy a Chance.

We mean your boy; the little fellow you
left at home this morning when you
started for the store or office. Don't for
get he has wants, as real and tangible to
him as yours are to you.
Remember he is no more a born saint
than you were. And if you just reflect
little you will be ashamed to think how
far from it you were. Don't forget him as
soon as his ''good-by papa" fades away be-
hind you. Didn't he ask you for some
thing? a jacknife or hammer or a new
slate or some pencils or something or
other If you love your boy and wish to
show him that you do, you might better
forget business appointment down town
than forget his request
If he asks you for something your better
judgment says he should not have, don't
be content with simply ignoring the boys
wish, but take the time and trouble to ex-
plain your reasons. Boys, even pretty
young ones, are quicker than you may
think to see point. Always give a rea-
son for refusal Of his request, even if it is
the one you too often give, that you can't
afford 1t. And be careful how you give
that reason
If he has lost or broken his iacknife, and
asks you for a new one, don't scold him.
Albeit you may give him little lesson in
carefulness, but don't tell him you can't
afford to give him ten cents for new one
and then before you leave the house pull
out your cigar-case and light ten-cent
cigar.
The boy will be drawing invidious dis
tlnctlons before you know it.-Business

Rooster and Dog.

At Rockville, Conn, a rooster and dog
have become fast friends. For week the
bird had been beset by fierce cock, both
being members of the same flock, and the
two roosters fought almost constantly not
far from the dogs kennel. Finally the
weaker bird, sick and friendless, having
been completely knocked out in the ring.
fled into the dogs kennel to escape its
bloodthirsty foe, and, dropping in the
straw, made eloquent signs, as if asking
protection and shelter. Carlo had un-
doubtedly watched the combat between
the birds with an intelligent and sympa-
thetic eye, for not only did he permit the
wounded rooster to tarry in his house, but
when the other bird attempted to enter
the kennel to glut its fury further he arose
threateningly, growled, and just looked at
the vindictive pursuer once, and that bird
evidently made up its mind that the time
for discretion had come. He went away
sullenly. Since then the wounded rooster
has dwelt with the dog, and the two in
mates of the kennel seem to be warmly at
tached to each other. If any rooster chal-
lenges to mortal combat are forwarded to
his friend, the dog attends to them
promptly; so the other barnyard fowls
have concluded that it won't do at all to
monkey any more with the rooster that
lives in kennel.

or strain. His wife shares his habits, his
thoughts, his advantages. Like DIR. and
Mrs. Primrose, their adventures are very
few, and their principal migrations from
the blue room to the brown. 1t would be
strange if such cosy couple did not bear
the common marks of this identical exist
ence. In fact, wherever there is isolation
due to situation, necessity or taste, the
people who bear the same lot do show SINH
lar results in gait, manner or countenance.
As to the discovery by the photographers
of Geneva, that the brothers and sisters
taken were not so like one another as the
old married folk, that means very little.
Nothing is so remarkable in families as
the unlikeness of brothers and sisters OF
the same parents, brought up in the same
home, under the same rules, and lighted
by the same love, each child shows at a
very early period a maryelously distinct
individuality.
Western thought and Darwinian science
account for these things by telling us OF
hereditary traits cropping up in de-
scendants by chance. Oriental philoso-
pliers attribute the distinction to re-incar-
nation. The being who comes into the

another body and at another time. In the
interval he existed somewhere, and was
finally sentenced to another period OF
earth life, selecting-how nobody knows
a particular body for his temperance.
Some say that if he had led the life of,
say, wicked Earl in the eighteenth
century, he resumes carnal existence as
the child of crossing-sweeper, and is
cufied as much as he was once caressed;
thus justice is fulfilled This theory, il
proved, would fully account for the fact
that Robinson's baby is sometimes not in
the least like either Robinson or his wife,
or their ancestors to the remotest genera
tion. And thus commonplace people are
the flesh and-blood parents of immortal
minds, who owe to them merely little
body. So the philosophers account for the
sudden appearance of an infant prodigy
a Mozart or Shakespeare-in the world
We say nothing as to the truth or false
hood, the probability or improbability OF
this theory; but the fact remains that
family traits are sometimes conspicuous by
their absence, so that the non-resemblance
of the brothers and sisters photographed at
Geneva goes for nothing. The growing
likeness of old married couples, therefore
remains to be proved.
