in January.
To the wives of those who are dis
franchised: IT you can't think of any
thing else to buy your husbands for
Christmas present them with certificates
of citizenship.
Snobs in high places assume great airs
and are pretentlous in all they do, and
the higher the elevation the more con-
spicuous is the incongruity of their po-
sition.-Samuel Smiles.
A Mormon polygamist has been elect
ed to congress from Utah. If he holds
his place as long as Breckenridge did he
will d. we'll. Old Brock had the advan-
t.ge, however, of not having DECLARED his
exact position.
Some young men can stand at the
front gate long time without their
feet getting cold.-Madelia Messenger.
But they wouldn't stand at an cleo
ton booth on a cold day five minutes to
help friend into Office.
The republican members of the legis-
lature from the Second district held
meeting at Mankato last week and en-
dorsed Gilbert Gutterson of Lake Crys-
tai for speaker. Thus far Mankato con-
felences haven't been followed by desired
results.
1t takes more courage to speak to
your neighbor about Christ than to go
to Africa as a missionary Madelia
Messenger.
Of course it does. Nine times out OF
ten your neighbor knows you don't
practice what you preach.
Prof. Carlson, of st. Peter, is men
toned for congress two years hence.
Carlson for congress and McCleary for
governor, they say.-Lamberton Star.
Then give US Lind to do up Mac, and
johnson of St. Peter to finish the man
with the stentorian voice and Webster
ian brow.
Whenever the referendum comes into
use, the people will learn something
about their government. The questions

Gent Mckinley, will be an air-chaser OF
the first magnitude.-Madelia Messen-
ger.
If the Reviews memory is good, the
Messenger gave voice to similar pre-
diction when John Lind was nominated
for governor to run against Eustis.
The St. Paul Globe tive years ago
got up big sensation over, the alleged
mismanegement Of the state prison.
The question naturally arises, will 1t re-

No, it won't he necessary, The new
governor will in all probability tackle
the question Of his own accord.
Admiral Dewey writes that he is toe
busy to furnish magazine article fol
$4,000. We had always labored under
the impression that Dewey had been hav
ing picnic at Manila all this time anc
that his work with the Spaniards hac
been undertaken for no other purpose
than recreation-just to break the mon.
otony and incidentally to show them
what he could do.
Mrs. Eddy, a noted disciple of Chris

painful. She contends that the boil sim

famatlon and swelling and this belief is
called boil. Mrs. Eddy may possibly

dahl place on the rail- DAD and ware
house commission. These are two most
