The objects of this paper are, to
formulate the laws of climatic evolu-
ton, and to show:
First-That in consequence of these
laws a hot spheroid, holding water and
air, or fluids of similar properties with
In the sphere of its control, and re-
volving about a source of solar energy,
will be subjected to a series of uniform
climates. gradually decreasing in tenn
perature, and terminating in an Ice
Age; that this age will be succeeded
by a zonal distribution of climates,
which, within certain limits, gradually
increase in temperature and extent
Second-That the difficulties met in
the attempts to interpret present,
glacial and pre-glacial climates have
been due, in. part, to failure to give
due weight to certain of these laws,
and to recognize the force of others.
In attempting to trace the history Of
the earth back into the infinite past,
the first step brings us in contact with
the question: What was the cause of
the Ice Age? Before going farther it
might be we'll to glance at the theories
which have been put forward to ac-
count for this age, and to briefly con-
slider the present position of the sci
entific world as regards this first step
in the problem. 1t is not necessary
to review all the theories which have
been urged. The principal ones will
be mentioned in two classes. Glass +.
embraces those which require an Ice
Age, single in it's occurrence and
unique in the climatic history of the
earth. The theories of this class
proved unsatisfactory, and failed to
fully explain the admitted facts Of
geology. This failure, in a measure,
warranted a resort to the ingenious
theories of Glass II, which theories re-
quire recurrence of glacial epochs.
The lack of evidence of such recur-
renee has prevented the theories of

McClurefs Magazine for June.


While conserving its general liter
airy interests, McClure's Magazine for
June makes good it's title of War
Number; and is really an unparalleled
achievement in making monthly
periodical fully representative of the
great interests of the hour, without
any sacrifice of literary and artistic
quality The editors explain that to
accomplish this, they had practically
to MAKE the number over a second
time, e4sting aside part of it after it
had gote to press. The special char.
acter d of the number is continued by
an article, admirable in tone and

For Supreme Judge.

The candidacy of Leon Lum of Du-
luth for place on the supreme bench
does not seem to excite much enthusi-
asm among the people there. Some OF
the delegates at Anolza said that very
few people in Duluth knew him. Mr..
Lum, until recently, was resident of
Brainerd. The delegation from that
county will, no doubt support him if
his name is presented. Members of the
Duluth delegation said that if their
city was given any place on the stat
ticket the only man they wanted
nominated was Walter Ayres for the
same place which Mr.. Lum aspires to.

Mr.. Ayres, formerly resided in st

bia law school and stood at the head
of his class. After graduating Mr..
Ayres came Immediately to the West,
settling in ST. Paul in 1886. Later he
went to Duluth. He is said to have,
withone exception, the most lucrative
law practice in that city.

swEEr crRL GRADUATES.

God bless her, and may she bloom
perennial. Let her hold aloft her
ideals and lift the world up from it's
trough and it's counting room. from
its short-cake and long division. to
those wing-starting emotions and
ethereal joys which knock the top off
of time and let eternity drop in all it's
glory down. And if in any spring
time, when the swallows nest again,
some Richard occur de lion, longing
for a crusade to capture the sacred
things of earth, shall make war upon
her heart, we commend her to his
keeping; only let her insist that some
thing equally sacred shall be given as
a hostage to fortune in return. Hav-
ing studied the languages, she could
decline, but she won't, for the love
birds are nesting in her heart. So we
offer mistletoe bough for a wreath,
though it take wilderness-for her
name is legion, and leave her where
we found her among the mysteries of
life, wondering what biscuits grow on,
and standing at the threshold of the
earthly gates ajar.
There are others besides the girl
graduate, but we like her best and
shall pass them by. They do most of
their thinking on the campus with
their feet, and we are not as yet past
master of ped-degrees. They have
corns on their intellects and ought to
be treated by the free dispensary CHR
opodist provided by the state. But
the girl gradute, the spirit without
guile, who jumps off her pedestal on
commencement day and proceeds to
herself on the altar of
domiciled devotion, without SO much
as having learned how to boil water,
is the sweet object of our solicitude.
The world is waiting and watching for
her today. We forget Greece and
take our thoughts from Thermopylae
TO let her pass. Once more God bless
her. j. Adam Bede.

It has been conceded in the Sixth
district for the past month or two that
Page Morris would, without doubt, be
renominated for congress at the con-
vention in Anoka to-day, and it is now
also conceded by all except those who
are especially interested in the success
of Towne, that Judge Morris will be
returned by larger majority than he
had two years ago. During the early
part Of his term. Judge Morris had
no end of trouble with the applicants
for postofices, as any other congress
man may have and for a time the work
that he was actually doing for the dis
trict was o,,scured by the dust from the
heels OF disappointed applicants, Or
who did not get them as soon
as they expected. In some cases there
were q half dozen candidates for a
single Office, and naturally when one
was selected the other five and their
friends made a row. Now that the
clouds have rolled away the people in
that district find that many of the mat
ters which have been troubling them
for SO long past have been settled, land
contests have been looked after and
closed up where possible, the mail SER
vice has been improved all through
the district and especially in some of
the newer counties, where improve
ments have been most needed. In
short, the Sixth district has business

The republican congressional con-
vention for the Sixth district met at
Anoka last week, and registered the
will of the party in re-nominating
Hon. Page Morris for congress. The
convention was largely attended, and
surprising enthusiasm was manifest
considering the fact that it was very
generally felt that there would be no
contest. The sentiment of the district
as reflected by the several county del
egations,, indicates the reelection of
Mr.. Morris by a majority of as many
thousands as he had hundreds two
years ago. The experiences of the
past two years, and the present pros
poets not only in the Sixth district,
but throughout the country, have de-
tached thousands of voters from de-
mocracy. The election in Oregon is
indicative of the tremendous changes
that have taken place.
The convention was presided over
by Hon. w. E. Lee of Todd county,
with N. 81. Ingersoll of Grow Wing
for secretary. The following was the
committee on resolutions: Chas. F.
Hendryx of Stearns, Frank Wilson of
Wadena, F. B. Daugherty of st. Louis,
Warren Potter of Aitkin, 0. L. Cutter
of Anoka, r. F. Lynch of Wright, w.
M. Fuller of Morrison, Edwary Page
of Carleton and G. G. Mccarthy of
Itasca.
The resolutions commend the pro-
tective policy of the administra alton;
and also the firm, intelligent and cour-
ageous attitude during the period in
tervening between the destruction of
tine Maine and declaration of war
against Spain, when a large part of
the press and many politicians and
others were demanding immediate
was warmly commended.
The firmness with which Congressman
Morris had supported the president
during that trying period was enthu-
endorsed. The resolu-
tons were unanimously adopted.
Judge Morris was renominated by
Chas. F. Hendryx of Stearns, and the
was seconded by a rep
of nearly every county in
The district, all pledging very
largely increased vote for him next
'all.
The convention was an earnest and
one, and every deleg ate
present left the hall feeling that the
battle was already half won, but that
here would be no cessation of ende av-
IL until the close of the polls.
