What The People Are Saying

What Nhe People Are Saying
Registration opened today in The
city hall. 1t is the duty of every
good citizen to register in order that
he shall !be entitled to vote.
The registration officers should be
careful not to register any one who
is not a citizen OF the United States.
A person who is not a citizen OF the
United States is not entitled to he II
voter in our state.
The registration officers should ex-
ercise the right to challenge every APP
alien or disqualified person registers.
The recent constitutional amend
ment requiring all aliens to take out
intention papers at least six months
before voting is in force.
No foreigner should be registered
who cannot produce an intention pa
per. The practice of registering Mex
leans, on Tom, Dick and Thad's says
so should be discontinued.
The Mexican alien who cannot prove
himself a negro or a Caucasian is
not eligible to naturalization. any
more than Il Chinaman.
The registrar should refuse to regis
ter all such applicants and let the
agrieved individual test the matter in
the courts.
If the alien Mexican vote is regis
tered and used in the coming city cleo
ton the election will be contested il
the Mexican vote is counted for the
successful candidate.
Let every good citizen, every tax
payer take the trouble to register, and
stand as a unit against the Officehold-
erS combine that owe their places to
the use of the alien, irresponsible, IL
legal purchasable voting element.

SHE WAS THRIFTY.
One Woman Made 5000 With \
Thrashing Machine.


A woman thrasher is a novelty
that is. outside of the school house or
home. And the one in question is
genuine thrasher of the golden grain
of the northwest. She came into
one of the Minneapolis farm machin-
cry house sthe other day to make herti-
al payment on her machine. This
was startling and marked her as a
woman of business capacity; for the
man who makes a full payment on a
thrasher this season is regarded as
an exceptionally good man. That the
lady in question had a business head
is further evidenced by the fact that
she succeeded in working the manager
of the establishment for $3.50, the
amount of her fare home.
She innOcently told him that to pay
her bill in full would take every cent
she had and she must take out enough
10 get home While the manager gen
tly demurred at receipting the bill in
full with this discount off, she ingen-
iOusly limited that it would cost more
than $3.50 to send n collector after the
balance, and he tumbled to the Situa-
ton as gracefully as possible. Mrs.
Thrasher Tor perhaps it is Miss said
that she had made $1,000 out of her
machine and had 1877 stacks of grain
to finish this winter, which she pro-
posed to do if the snow was hub deep.
Considering the fact that many ma
chimes are being taken back on mort
cages this year, no one can success
fully maintain that a woman is not
adapted to this new field for wOman,s
activity. minneapolis Journal.

AN ACCIDENT THIS TIME.

The manner in which Mr.. Rudy
Strohmeyer shot that deer Sunday Mt
Mitchelrs lake was purely accidental.
The party was only after ducks and
snipe, but while going along the shore
near the brush Sunday morning Stroll
meyer suddenly came upon two large
does lying down. The two deer
Sprang up and ran, but one of them
was too slow. Strohmeyer's right and
left barrel OF his shot gun, loaded with
duck shot,h done its work. The
doe ran short distance, then fell over
dead. The venison added consid-
ably to the variety of game brought
in by the party and yesterday all were
enjoying venison steak.

Handel.

Handel once offended George I 80 sori.
ously that he was afraid to approach the
court, but through the friendly ineerposi-
tion of Baron Kilmansegge, who was high
In favor, he was restored to favor In the
following manner:
Soon after his arrival In England the
king was persuaded to make short ex-
cursion ON the water. Handel was In.
formed Of this intention, and, upon the
advice Of his friend, he composed some
pieces expressly for the occasion and CO.
cretly conducted their performance In q
boat that accompanied the royal barge.
His majesty, upon hearing these compost.
tions, which have since become famous
under the title Of the water Musio," was
30 surprised and pleased by their excellence
that he Immediately demanded the name
Of the author. The baron, who was on
hand for that purpose, told the king that
they were the work of faithful servant
Of his majesty who, conscious 0 the cause
Of the displeasure which he had given,
burst not presume to approach the royal
presence until he could be assured that by
every demonstration Of gratitude and duty
In the future he might hope to secure q
pardon. This intercession was accepted,
and Handel was Immediately restored to
favor. His compositions were honored
with the most 6attering marks of royal
appreciation, and the king Immediately
gave him a pension Of e200 q year In ad-
dition to that which had previously been
conferred upon him by Queen Anne.-

L. +. Mclean, one OF the best known
horsemen on the American turf. was at.
tackled with heart disease and died a
short time afterwards at the Oakley
race track yesterday afternoon. Mr.
McLean's death was undoubtedly caused
by the exciting finish in the stake race
and the sensational incidents which fol.
lowed. After Taluca crossed the w1fs
winner by q nose and the jockeys were
dismounting, John Huffman. the et
Louis hoyseman, took advantage Of th<

race and began to bid up Taluca, Mr

Leans trainer. stood by and protected
his fiily, and after being bid UP to $300(

figure. Blackburn at once put In q claim
for Remember Me, Huffman's horee,
which finished second to Taluca, and
after paying 5000, the amount she was
entered for. both animals were led (,

transaction. After It was over Nc.
Leans friends first noticed uht he was
sick, and only short time Afterwards
he received the fatal attack.
