down, he thrust knife into his throat.

where the seed had been planted.
Next he covered the corpse with a

seed. In few moments a sprout was

Subscription So per Year.

WHAT an exaggeration! What
a whopper! It has been disproven
thousand times; it is clear case of
airy fancy. 1t doesn't take money
to run newspaper. 1t can run
without money. tits not a business
venture-it is charitable institu-
ton. A newspaper is child of
the air. A creature of q dream.
Itcan 90 on andon when any other
concern would be in the hands of
receiver and wound up with cob
webs in the window. 1t takes
wind to run newspaper; it takes
gall to run newspaper. 1t takes
scintilating acrobatic imagination
and a railroad pass to run news
paper. But money!-heaven to
Nancy and seven hands round who
ever needed money in a newspaper
office? Kind words are the medium
of exchange that do the business for
the editor-kind words and show
tickets. When you see an editor
with money watch him, he'll be pay
ing his bills next. Never pay an
editor money especially if you are
in the saloon business. Make him
trade it out. He likes to swap.
Then when you die after having
stood around for years and sneered
at the editor and his little jimcrow
paper, besure to have your wife
send Ia for three extra copies by one
of your weeping children and when
she reads the generous and touching
notice about you forewarn her to
neglect to send Is cents to the ed
itor. Money is a corrupt thing
The editor knows it and all he
wants is your heartfelt thanks.
Then he can thank the printer and
they can thank their grocers. But
money-scorn the filthy thing.
Don't let the pure, innocent editor
know anything about it, keep that
for ''grouchy'' people who charge
for their wares. The editor gives
his bounty away. The Lord loves
a cheerful giver. He'll take care of
the editor. The editor has a charter
from the state to act as door mat
for the community. He will work
night and day, get out the paper
somehow, stand up for the town
and home trade, roast peddlers
and other fakes, and whoop it up
when you run for Office. Don't |
worry about the editor-he'll get |
along somehow, the Lord knows
how-but he'll do it. Whenever
you see anything in the paper you
don't like come in and whip the
editor. Bear up with him when
he is roasting someone to help
your business along, and kick
when he happens to step on your
feet in sticking up" for the COM
munity.

GAS AND WATER.
WhaI Figures Reveal in Con-
nection with the Present
Proposition.

The last price put on the
gas and water plant by the
gentlemen represented by Mr..
Gay was $1,45O,0O0 in 4 per
cent bonds. The present price
is 81 1,250,000 in 5 per cent bonds.
Let us see just what the diff
ference is:
Under the $1,450,000 propo-
sition the city of Duluth in 80
years would pay for the pres
ent plants $4,000 per year in
terest, or total for the whole
period of $1,740,00O, plus the
principal, $1,450,000, making a
grand total of $3,190,000.
Under the 1,250,000 PROPOSE
ton the interest will amount
at 5 per cent to $4,000, or for
the entire 80 years, to $780,
600; to which add the princi-
pal, 81, ,25O,00O, and you have a
grand total of So, 3,125,0O0.
The difference is just $685.
900. When one hears the self
complacent chatter indulged
in by the friends of the present
city administration over the
wonderful success of that Chi
cago embassy of our worthy
mayor, he is irresistably re-
m inded of an old hen that has
just discovered the presence of
a wooden nest egg.
