The Patriotic Sons of America will
now look about for safe bank in which
to deposit the proceeds of the presenta-
ton blowout. Here's chance for the
order to make record for itself by do
mating the amount to the Dakota suffer-
erS.
While the exposition management is
awaiting suggestions for ideas for the
next exposition, it is odd that no one
has thought Of a carnival of authors.
Many local people would be glad to take
part. and by getting up handsome
booths, scenes from popular works
could be ably represented. Such an
affair in Chicago, held in the exposition
building, drew 1900 people. When
added TO the other features such an idea
S hould assist III the drawing powers, as
some 200 Minneapolis people would
take part, and their friends would be
anxious to see how they sustained their
characters. An English, Irish and Ger
man castle could be erected and peo-
pied with characters to represent the
age.
The old fight between the Catholics
and anti-Catholics is again on. and any
amount OF bad blood is certain to be
stirred up over it. Most level-headed
making mistake. No good will come
of this quarrel. 1t is, in the first place,
a causeless quarrel; then it is sense
less one to boot. 1t is causeless diff
ficulty because the anti-Catholics have
no juStifiable reason for bringing up re-
ligiOuS issues They have no place in
politics, and the majority of the people
the NEST Intelligent majority at that
are opposed to it. The Catholics of Min
neapofis are not demanding that the
scheel moneys shall be divided between
public and parochiai schools. 1t is,
moreover, doubtful if many of them
really think the school moneys should
be divided. The Catholics are wrong,
too, In noticing such a movement, es-
peeiaily when fathered by the persons
who are working up the division. If
Intelligent people will treat the matter
as 1t should be treated-by utterly ig-
noEing tit will result in consigning to
political oblivion the promoters of it,
from which Obscurity they never would
have emerged but for the notice they
have received from misguided agitatOFs.
The Evening Hyphen's warning to
the Minneapolis 400 to look out for
a prototype of Paul Clifford was thrown
away. 'SaSsiety" could not afford to
ignore such persons. There would be
no young men left for the fair daugh-
ters to smile upon.
Deputy Postmaster Hughes has not
been in the postoffice all these years
without learning that it pays to ''stand

plOyeS.

The action of the Church of the Re-
deemer people with reference to aid of
the Dakota people is very much like
a mans licking the little brother of the
muscular citizen who has insulted
him.
DR.. Burrell is expected to return this
week. and as consequence all upopu-

to roaSts which will be held in reserve.
What has become of that phenomenal
catcher which the base ball manage

these gentlemen would do such thing
Rs make great big bluff?
Once upon Time there Was Lion
who Dwelt in A forest which He was
fond of Calling his Own. But the Other
animals who Lived in That same wood
declined to bow to his Authority. Then
would The lion Stand upon his Hind
legs and Road forth maledictions upon
the heads Of all Beasts round About
because They had not The good sense
to see That he was a Grand monarch
who should Be looked Up to as
the only and Original Boss.
But they needed him Not. Then
he determined to make War upon
A family of Industrious squirrels who
Were laying up Stores against The time
when Cold winter would come. But
certain Fox came to the Rescue of the
SQUIRRELS. This fox Had no Large whis-
kers To lend dignity to His counte-
nance, but be was A hustler. He set
All his friends to Work. In time
It came TO pass that the
Be-whiskered lion was Fooled. But the
fox was Too 'cute. He was Not salts
fed With victory. He desired to Harass
his foe. So he Kept up Series of petty
prosecutions Until The other beasts be
came disgusted With his tactics And he
lost some OF his best friends. Then
the lion Laughed.
Moral: Too much Of good Thing is
worse than none At all. Respectfully
