More Cholera

There is general impression that
this country is not to escape with the
few cases Of cholera which were quar-
antined or developed sporadically.
Authorities unite in saying that the
germs Of the plague have been i'm
planted and the spring opening will
witness another breaking out Of a
more serious character and harder to
cope with. There is little chance,
however, that the scourge will obtain
a foothold in the Northwest. The
country through which the Saint
Paul & Duluth Railroad runs is famed
as one of the healthiest in the world
and as affording no Judgment for
disease. The Saint Paul & Duluth
Railroad, by the way, is known every
where as the Duluth Short Line and
as such enjoys great popularity with
all classes. 1t makes specialties OF
fast trains, convenient schedules,
close connections and handsome mod
ern terminals, all of which appeal
forcefully to those who travel between

Duluth and West Superior, to all OF
which points it is the favorite route.

The extraordinary depression in the
price OF wheat this fall. seems to en-

Washburn's anti-option bill in a man

gambling wheat would be sold on it's
merits. Washburn's bill would para
lyze option gambling, so why not try

Thanksgiving Day.
In their determined revolt from the
corrupt, licentious and tyrannical
rule Of the Stuarts, and from state
church, the Puritans were unable to
separate the practices of their enemies
from their principles. The Cavalier
danced around the Maypole and made
Christmas a season Of prolonged
feasting and jolity. The Cavalier was
q monarchist and a prelatist, abhor-
fred by the chosen people. Therefore
Maypoles and Christmas feasts were
denominations. But though the Pur-
itan adhered to his standards with
stern fanaticism, he could not al
together keep down his human nature.
| So be. invented Thanksgiving Day"
giving it semi-religious character.
The practical result was to give sane
tion once more to innocent and
hearty amusement. The best thing
about Thanksgiving is, that it is q
day Of Homecoming The sons
and daughters, scattered to homes Of
their own, return once q year 10 the
Ispot where they were Graded, and to
the arms that held them in infancy.

old father and mother in it? Speed
