Anot her Swiss System.

In Switzerland where the railway
system is controlled by the govern
ment. passenger rates have been re-
duced to basis that seems incredi-
bly, low to an American. There rail
way tickets arc sold by time and not
by mileage. On application a non
transferable ticket, good for fifteen
days, will be issued to a person. The
cost is $11.58. During these fifteen
days the holder may travel as much
or as long as he likes over the entire
railway system. The lake steamers
are also available, a second class
ticket giving the right to a first class
passage on any one Of the Steam ers.
One may travel for an entire year for
$l15. These tickets are vigorously
personal and each has photograph
of it's holder attached. No baggage
however, is carried free. No allow
ance is made for tickets unused

Fast Track Laying.

+ The method of track laying now in
progress on the 500 is thus described
by the Emmons County Record:
"More than a hundred men are at
work. First came twenty-five or
thirty men handling the ties and rails
in front of the train. At the head of
the train was the derrick Cdr. This
derrick (the first of its kind and the
Invention of Mr.. James Burke, the
conductor Of the construction train
and the man in charge of the whole
crew. lifts a rail by the middle, and
with Il man at each end to steady it,
lays it in place on the ties. Then
came the rail cars, then the tie cars,
then the engine with an extra tender
of water, then a car of bolts, nuts, ETC.,
and last car of telegraph poles: wire
etc.
"There is a tramway of rollers on
each side of the flat cars. fixed to the
cars little lower than the edge of
the floor. One side is for rails and
the other for ties and the material
moves forward with sufficient ra pidity
to keep the ties and rail layers in
front of the train supplied. There is
a lookout" high up On platform in
the derrick, who, with flag pivoted
to staff. gives signals to the engin-
eer. Only one bolt to each rail, be-
ing where the rails are joined togeth-
er by the anglebar, is at first tighten
ed, the other bolts being made fast
ana the spikes driven into the ties
after the train has passed over. The
telegraph men on the hind car drop
the poles off and put on the cross
pieces, keeping up with the track
laying work. There is a telegraph op-
orator at the front and communication
is kept up all along the completed
line to Kuhn"

fact is just as clear and plain in the
case of the Philippines, with the diff
ference that there are nearly ten
times as many people in the latter
place. What we ca1 do and what
we may do with the Philippines are
questions yet to be worked out. But
it is not a question altogether of ben
eft to the United States alone, we
have to deal with the moral obliga-
ton we have necessarily assumed
over the people of the Philippines.
We might have chosen differently in
the beginning perhaps, but now it
would be pure cowardice to leave the

Good Temperance Argument.

The longer we live the more we are
convinced that liquor drinking is g
mighty good thing to let alone. We
are not as old as many Of the readers
of this paper, nor is our experience as
far reaching, but we never yet have
met man who was an absolute tee
totaler and suffered because of the
fact. We were strongly reminded of
this recently when invited with sell
ect few to dinner at the most aristo-
cratic club in a nearby city. The
party consisted of the unlucky num-
Der thirteen, and comprised two rail-
road presidents, whose names are
household words on two continents;
the manager of the largest stock
yards company in the world; two we'll
known educational authorities; the
manager of one the largest cattle
ranches and feeding plants in the
United States; a leading horseman;
some promiennt merchants and busi-
ness men. Liquor wss passed and
offered repeatedly and out Of the thir
teen men gathered there. all but three
absolutely refused it and but one
gentleman in the party partook of
the second glass. The strongest men
in the party were absolutely teetotal-
ers. Let Dakota farm boys profit by
their example.-Dakota Farmer.

Our Duty.

An objection made by those who
are against the Tinted States taking
the Philippine group, is that the peo
pie there are not fit to become citi-
zens of the United States, because Of
ignorance and race. This is prob
ably quite true, but that same fact
argues most strongly against our
dropping them and leaving them to
their own resources, because if they
are not fit to become citizens of the
United States, they are obviously
much less fit to govern themselves
under separate government. 1t is a
we'll recognized principle of inter-
national law, that any people who
cannot govern themselves should be
taken in charge and governed. The
reasons are obvious. Barbarism is
hindrance and menace to civilization,
and good government is necessary to
civilization. 1t is the duty Of the
civilized, both for their own sake and
for the sake OF the uncivilized to lead
and direct for the betterment of
humanity. Our war with Spain was
solely on the ground that Spain had
failed to govern Cuba, and that same

The Evil of Gossip.

"A great many young people are
studying the art of speech, or how to
speak fl"ently. A good many of us
ola fellows are studying just as hard
TO acquire the art or the habit of keep.
ing our mouths shut A larger and
more varied experience with the reali.
ties of life accounts for this difference
OF occupation. Both are right and
worthy OF serious reflection.
But when one discusses the weak
ness or eccentricities of another to a
fellow fluent talker. and he lacks the
good judgement to keep the matter
to himself, but instead CONVEYS it
with sundry frills and embellishments
to the one discussed, then one wishes
he had been blest with quiet tongue.
Speak evil of no one except in his
presence, and not then except with
the purpose of doing goods
The tongue that wags necessarily
OF another's wrong doings and that
belabors neighbours frailties does
more harm than the things COM
planned of. While it does not effect
remedy it cultivates vice that has
no mean place in the devils catal-
ogue.
Whoever heard Of a gossip trying
to reform even the things that furnish
material for him to do business with.
They are not reformers nor do they
tattle to lessen the evils complained
OF, but because they enjoy it. De-
stroy the evil, real or imaginary, that
detains them from their legitimate
business aud no severer blow could
be given to their happiness. 1t is the
meat that their silly souls fatten on.
After all, the life and example OF
the reformer breaches more powerful
and lasting sermons than tongue and
talk.
To elevate, to enoble, to enlighten
and speech becomes fluent and words
eloquent.
| To punish, to hurt, and to degrade,
and speech becomes the vehicle that
damns both ways whether for pleas
ure or for purpose.
Many have mistaken the mission o1
the tongue. The brain always finds
tongue for its expression. It guides
and directs it and makes it an archi-
tect and builder. 1t becomes the
brains vehicle and servant; but rev.
erse all this, Take a highly devel-
oped tongue with but little or nc
brains to direct its movements anc
you have ship without rudder, 6
religion withouta a Saviour.
Notoriety sought under such cir
cumstances becomes notoriety In
deed. One readily becomes promin
ent, isnoticed, and is often mentioned
but his funeral is numerously at
tended by enthusiastic aquaintances
