Animal Kindereartena

It will be noticed that all creatures
which have large families, whether
beasts or birds, have less trouble in rear
ing them than those which have only
one or twoyoung. Little pigs are weeks
ahead of calves in intelligence, and the
young partridge, with its dozen brothers
and sisters, is far more teachable than
the young eagle. There seems no doubt
that the latter is taught to fly by its
parents. A correspondent informs the
writer that he has watched the old
birds SO engaged and the young eagles
reluctantly following them to u height.
Specialized education in animals be-
gins late. The beaver kittens training
does not begin until the autumn of the
year in which it was born. The old
beavers, which have moved up tributary
streams into the woods, or roamed to
the larger lakes during summer, then
return to inspect their dam and repair
it for the winter. They then cut down
a few trees, and, dividing them into
logs, roll them OR tow them to the dam.
The kittens meantime are put on to
what i'll a workshop would be called a
''soft job" They cut all the small
branches and twigs into lengths and do
their share of light transport service.
In the mud patting and repairing Of the
dam the beaver kittens take their share,
but there is little doubt that they do SO
because their elders are so engaged. 1t
is a kindergarten of the best kind, be-
cause mud patting and stick cutting ara
a great joy and solace to old beavers AS
we'll as young ones, and SO instruction,
pleasure and business are all combined.
Young offers. and probably also young
water rats, have to be taught to go into
the water. According to the observa-
tions Of Mr.. Hart, the late head keeper
at the zoo, the young offers born there
did not enter the water for weeks, and
even then their mother had to 'smind''
them and fetch them out when she
thought they had had enough Of it.
They swim naturally when once in the
water, and this seems true Of all ami.

Mar of tire kootenai.

The most complete and artistic map
of the rich mining region of the Koo-
tenai and adjacent territory in Wash
ington and British Columbia, has just
been published by the Northern Pacific
railway. 1t is just what is needed by
those going to that country or who de-
sire to study and know about it.
The map is made in relief, is 25xlS
inches in size between borders and has
in connection with it-on the same
page-two smaller maps that show the
relation of the region to the world at
at large.
The principal drainage of the coun-
try is laid down in blue, the trails and
roads are shown, the railways plainly
indicated, the names of important
towns printed in large black letters.
and the topography is represented in
brown. AS far as the ore deposits are
known they are indicated in a general
way by red lettering.
The country shown upon the map
includes particularly, the SLOGAN, Hoo
tenai lake, Cariboo creek, Deer Park,
Nelson, Salmon river, Trail or Rossland
and the Boundary creek regions. It
shows the Arrow lakes and the Lar
deau country and some portions of the
| Okanogan region.
The map is compiled from reliable
and official data and shows the mining
district subdivisions and the eleva-
lions of the mountains and lakes.
The opposite of the sheet contains
an accurate statement and decription
of the country, showing its discovery
and development to the present time.

THE NELSON BANKRUPTCY
LAW.


We notice, in some of our peo'
pies party exchanges. sarcastic
illusions to this measure because
it emanates from republican
legislator.
Now, it is true that all forms
of bankruptcy, where the assets
do not cover the liabilities, are,
strictly speaking, reputation
reputation according to law.
All civilized communities, since
the days of Moses, have had
some such form of reputation,
some kind of bankruptcy laws,
and they are absolutely neces.
sary under the competitive sys.
TEN. No matter how careful a
business enterprise, be it big or
small, is planned and prosecuted,
misfortune and unforeseen dis,
aster will and does regularly
occur and lead to insolvency.
In times of money panics. as we
have experienced for five years
past, with it's accompanying de-
probation of all kinds of prop
erty, insolvency becomes the
rule everywhere. Interest on
debts that cannot be met begin
to compound in geom etrical
ratio, so that in a very few
years all debtors are simply be-
yond the possibility of ever get
ting out again.
Now, the creditor class of soci-
ety-and that is the very class
that brought on the late panic
ought to be satisfied with taking
all the property of the debtor.
In most instances this is not
only the savings of a life time,
but also the sustenance of de-
crepit old age. We say, accord
ing to DUR feeling of humanity,
the creditor ought to be satisfied
with that. But he is not. He
wants, further, to have the
courts give him Judgment that
will be good while the debtor
lives, so that he can take any
thing he might try to gather
again in life-have the once
unfortunate insolvent debtor
branded, and tagged and ostra-
cized from business life forever.
It is against this barbarious
down-east, debtor-sc alping-
down there they call it Christian
love and honesty. of course
that Senator Knute Nelson has
taken up the gauntlet. The bank
ruptcy law, of which he is; the
author, passed in the senate by
his untiring effort and now held
up in the house by Speaker
Reed, provides that any debtor
to the extent of $500 can vol
UNFAIRLY give up his property
to his creditors and get his dis
charge, by a decree of the court,
from further liability.
Our readers will at once see
the supreme import lance of this
measure. It strikes the shackles
of life judgments from every
honest insolvent debtor: in the
land. If passed it will liberate
more slaves than the enamel.
patton declaration. Without il
even the free coinage Of silver
will fail to help hundreds Of
thousands Of the victims Of these
times. TO be sure il leaves the
insolvent debtor strip ped Of his
property, but with his mind and

hands free to build anew, he is
no worse off than the millions Of
the poor always with us:
But the* general effect Of this
u easure would be tremendous.
It would virtually render the
gold standard harmless, for the
real object Of the gold standard
policy is to keep the people in
everlasting debt and as .everlast-
ing interest payers. The money
brokers who back up the gold
standard do not want to own the
property of the country, for that
involves expense and taxes. All
they want is to draw interest
forever and take no risks. The
Nelson bankruptcy law would
unload unto mortgages lots of
property, and these men would
then become interested in prop
erty values, and, consequently,
the abolition of the gold stand
ard. The eastern gold bugs un-
derstand very we'll that the pas
sage of this bill means nothing
more nor less than removing the
foundation from their monetary
system, and that is why Gear
Reed opposes it, and none Of his
obedient servants dare to object.
It's effect on business revival
would be immense. It is too
risky now for a man to go into
business. For, if he should fail,
as a certain percentage must,
under all circumstances, he fails
for life. He will never be given
another chance. But, under the
bankruptcy law, if a man did fail
he would have an opportunity to
try again.
But how any we'll informed
populist can sheer at or fail to
ardently advocate this Nelson
bankruptcy law is something we
cannot understand. It is an out
and out populistic and an anti
gold standard measure of the
most sweeping and wide,reach-
ing character, and Senator Mel
son ought to have a vote of
confidence from every populist
convention next summer. His
bankruptcy bill will not pass
this house. if Reed can prevent
it, but it may in the next, if peo-
pie know what they are about.
We have watched Senator Mel
sons career for the last twenty
years. We have always admired
his ability, never doubted his
honesty, but have disagreed with
him, and opposed him in 1894 for
governor. But his course in the
senate has demonstrated to us
that he is as true to the com mon
people now as he was in 1888,
when he was the idol of the com.
mon people of Minnesota. His
political career has undoubtedly
been guided by tact and expe-
diency, but he never would have
been where he is without this.
He has fought himself to the
front over the corpses of political
freebooters, and at times he has
travelled in disguise to escape
the assassin's stilletto. That
proves genius and generalship.
Most of our great patriots of the
day have failed to come to the
front for want of this quality of
mind. But it is our duty to look
on and educate the public to rec
ognize and point out the true,
patriotic statesman, and it is the
duty of the people, if they want
redress of existing wrongs, to
stand by those who fight their
battles, let them wear whatever
livery they may. G. J.
