Rearing Another's Burdens.

Bearing one another's burden is harder than
bearing ones own. Blu, we can never bear
another's burdens until we make those bur-
dens ours. Therefore 1t is that the burden
we bear for another presses upon US with
double weight, because we feel It for our
selves and for one who Is dearer to US than
self.-TS. s. Times.

Tin from the mines In California is
now being shipped to mills, and at one
of his stops in that state President
Harrison was confronted by a large
pile Of metal. The Mckinley bill,
which soon places protective duty
on tin and tin plate, has caused active
works to begin in the tin industry in
different parts Of the country, and if
the experience in other industries is a
correct indication, another great in
dustry will be built up in the United
States, and the price of tin and tin
plate soon be cheaper than ever be-
fore in this country. Still that will

TO EQUALIZE WAGES.

ST. CLOUD, Mimi, May CD. H.
Freeman, president of the Granite
Producers association says the main
object of the association is the equal
ization of the granite cutters in the
East and West. The Eastern wages
average 1910 per day, while in the
West it is $3.50 for inside work and
1878 for outside work. He says that
the granite for the five largest build
ings now being erected III Chicago is
being furnished by New England con-
tractors, while it should be furnished
by Minnesota and Wisconsin. He
saws that while it is a combination of
producers it is in no sense inimical to
labor, as it hopes to operate in con-
nection with the labor unions, who
control the rates, on a perfectly
friendly basis.

THE ALLIANCE AND THE LABOR
ELEMENT.

1A0VM0NAS
1t became very apparent during
the recent session of the legislature
that the Farmers Alliance and the
labor element cannot work together.
Representatives Of some of the labor
organizations were at the capitol dur
ing the session looking after labor
legislation, and were displeased with
the stand taken by the Alliance
members of the legislature on some of
the leading questions regarding labor.
When the bill to make eight hours
a days. work on labor for cities,
counties and state was under discus
sion, it was argued by the Alliance
members that the passage of the bill
would tend toward drawing farm
laborers into the cities and making it
more dificnlt and expensive to get
help on farms, also that the farmers
could not favor any law intended to
make a days work shorter or wages
higher, as such legislation would
make it even more difficult than at
present to make farming profitable.
Then in the discussion Of railway
legislation it was found that con-
siderable number of the Alliance
members we're in favor of a policy to
compel railroad companies to cut
expenses by reducing the pay Of en-
ployes and to make a corresponding
reduction in the rates for the trans
portation Of grain and coal. One
prominent Alliance member of the
house declared in speech that wages
we're too high, that farmers conld not
hire help and could scarcely harvest
their crops. He favored longer hours
and lower wages. The attitude of
the Alliance members of the legisla-
ture on labor questions was at no
time during the session in harmony
with the interests of wage workers.

return for more fresh pork. On

watch until one O'Clock when he
thought that Bruin would not come
and so went to bed, but in the morn
ing found to his surprise that the
bear had come back and taken his last
hog. which he took to the same place
that he did the other one and ate oil
he wanted. The bear must have
been a large one as the hogs weighed
about $50 pounds each and he got
them over a six-foot fence without
breaking any of their bones.
