THE COUNTRY EDITOR.

~ woman noted all over Southern
minnesota for a very peculiar mania
is referred to in the following item from
the Mankato Review:
MIS-. KICKS, the window smasher,"
IS the guest OF the city of Winona. She
was received at the train on her arri-
val there from Mankato by a represent
ative of the city, escorted to the county
Jail, and will remain there until she
decides to go to La Crosse, when she
VIII be given transportation, and ar
irving there La Crosse will extend the
same courtesies. Her fad of window
breaking insures maintenance and
support.
speaking of Representative Dare's
bii to regulate sleeping car companies,
the Wheaton Footprints remarks:
Inc Dill is all right. but the editor
that travels does so generally on a pass.
don't tip the porter because he is
dead-broke, for the same reason has
no valuables to lock up and if he
wishes to retire seeks the seclusion of
the coal bin, where he enjoys the con-
genial heat of the companys fire and
thanks heaven that he don't have to
foot the coal bill
A.e'iiiS LANE lily is as new as noted,
but the first arrivals are alive to
thelr privileges. The Rainy Lake
Journal gives this account of the first
oa1l held in the town:
The ''old settlers of Seine river gave
their first ball on New Years eve, and
the affair was very elaborate one.
Tne old people sat in the corner before
the fire and smoked their pipes, while
the young people enjoyed themselves in
the cld-time waltz and quadrille The
music was furnished by the '"Tom-
Tom band and was acknowledged by
all to be the best they had ever heard
of the kind. The guests invited were
of the select, and included merchants,
hotel propTietors, bankers and would-be
gold kings. The ladies were arrayed
in their most gorgeous attire, that
appeared to be original specimens of
their own handiwork The gentlemen
were armed with an ample supply of
presents for the "blonde' CD maidens,
which consisted chiefly of candy, jew
elry and handlzerchiefs. The affair, as
whole, was grand success.
Ed Paradis' latest, in Midway News:
when Gov. Ciough comes in," said

tol stenographer, 81 suppose you folks
will all be turned down." and the
golden hair was hanging down her
back. 81 understand that is his gen.

Congressman Heatwole edits the
Mortified News, and this editorial
item from his pen will be interesting:
Senator Washburn ought to exhibit
better humor in his defeat He was
defeated and ought to accept the re-
suit gracefully. The man who has not
the courage to give or take a blow
ought never to enter the political field.

Endorsement OF the income tax law
is not confined to Democratic papers.
The Springfield (Minn.) Advance says
of it:
The income tax is winning it's way.
1t has always been favorite measure
with all except the more greedy among
the beneficiaries Of great wealth. AS
the time for it's collection approaches
it is found that the receipts from it
will be more than was expected. This
will correspondingly tighten the bur
dens of the poor working classes,
thus tending to equalize taxes ac-
cording to the ability to pay. If the
Democratic party never had done
more than to pass the income tax, it
would merit the thanks of the people.
From the Alexandria Republican
comes this Endorsement of Cleveland's
emergency, message:
Cleveland has spoken wisely. Now
let his party profit by his wisdom. No
man of any political persuasion can
afford to turn his back on any Iegiti-
mate remedy for the ills that have be-
fallen this nation.
