ENOUGH AND TO SPARE.

We pray, "God, give us this day our
daily Bread" but our Father answer
cd that prayer before the foundation
of the world. Even in the present
monstrous organization of produc-
ton, the people could not by any posi-
bility consume all that they produce
in any given year; and the possibilities
of production have scarcely been
touched.
A conservative tatistician estimates
that the state of Texas alone, if its re-
sources were all organized to that end,
could support the present population
of the world. An eminent Austrian
economist figures that all that is pro-
duced in the Austrian empire would re-
quire but three hours day labor from
each tOiler, if production We're ration
ally organized and each man to toll;
and that if the production of Austria
were equitably distributed each family
would have enough for an abundant
life
"If" says Henry George, "nen lack
bread, il is not that God has not done
his part in providing it. If men Will
ing to labor are cursed with poverty,
it is not that the storehOuse that God
owes men has failed; that the daily
supply he has promised for the
daily want of his children is not here
in abundance
In the early part of1S97 when meet
ings for the relief ofthe famine in India
were being held in English and Ameri-
can cities, when contributions were
received from newsbovs and washer
women, scores of ships laden with
wheat, and CARRYING millions otmoney,
arrived in English ports as rents from
the people in India for the privilege of
living on the lands which the English
had taken from them.-Prof. George
d Heron.

Thus the ground was in common,
and no part of it was permanent
property of any man IN parti-

tree might be said to be in common,
as all men were equally entitled to its
produce; and yet any private individ-

PENSION ROLL GROWING. !.
Will Not Decline Very soon
Spanish War Pensioners.

Washington, SEPT. 5.-The annual
report OF H. Clay Evans, commissioner
of pensions. was made public Satur-
day. Following Is a synopsis of the
main points:
The commissioner says that the roll is
not only increasing in numbers. but In
value. It is believed that it will increase
from the war Of the rebellion, as there
probably are 100000 ex-union soldiers liv-
ing who have never had pensions. and it
will increase in amount naturally by reason
OF increased disabilities as provided by
law. The amounts paid out at the several
agencies for the year on account Of pen
sions under the general laws were $75.-
275.3S3. and on account of pensions under
the act Of June n. 1890. $66. .255.670. The num-
Der Of pensioners in foreign countries at
the close Of the fiscal year was 4.S71. hav-
ing increased 309. The total amount paid
to pensioners living abroad was $669S62.
Pension claims pending June 80. 1898.
numbered 635.059 The commissioner is con-
fldent that there are not over $4,000 Of thes,
Qnvalids and widows) that are genuine
original claims. The others are cases
where the claimants are already pensioned.

ThR Sick Men.

In answer to the telegram from Col.
Van Duzee that there were 70 men on
the sick lidt os the cath regiment, Gov.
Clough telegraphed his congratula-
tions to the colonel at once.
1T is a wonderful showing" he said.
'Do you know that the 18th. which
has never been outside of the state,
has more men disabled by 100 than
both of these regiments together,
which have been four months in the
terrible South? I don't believe that
there is another regiment in the coun-
try that can show record as the 14th.
It's the healthiest regiment today IN
the United States"
The governor has cabled to Col.
Reeve to ask if nurses would be of any
assistance. If the 18th has use for
them he will get permission from the
war department to send them, as the
Red Cross societies suggest.

away at Winnebago City. Paul Regan,

dashing down the street and near by a
child in danger. He rushed for the
child, caught him to rescue him, but
was second too late. The wheel of
the buggy struck the boys right side
just as he was being drawn aside and
broke his leg near the hip joint. Mr..

5-year-old son in his hands. The boy

Duluth over the Eastern Minnesota
railroad. He was accomsanied by his
wife, daughter, and several others. A
few miles out the party met with a
thrilling experience and very serious
consequences were narrowly averted.
AS the train was approaching a bridge
at full speed, the engineer noticed the
structure was in flames. 1t was too
late to stop and he opened the throttle
and dashed through the fire. The
train passed safely over, but the rear
sank several inches in crossing the

Al tnls story had been true, and if the

From mastery article comparing
the iron industries of Sweden and Ger
many, the following was culled: '"The
Germans keep breast of the times, ac-
commodate themselves to the demands
OF the times, as must be done by all
vigorous, progressive elements. 1t
may be said that the Germans have
taken the lead among the iron-produc-
lng nations of Europe. But we Swedes
have the riches of the mountains, and
the future at our command. Our cir
cumstances are such that we may COM
pete with the Germans for supremacy.
But meanwhile we must trace the foot
steps of the Americans or of the Ger
mans themselves, at least as far as the
mode of work and the execution of the
work itself are concerned" What the
writer means by tracing the footsteps
OF the Americans or the Germans is
that the Swedes learn to work as fast
as the Americans and Germans.

A very hardy species of crawfish is

it's flesh is greatly inferior to that of

plant the old stock. which now affords
