VESSEL TONNAGE.

1t is no wonder that Duluth is known
rs the chief port at the head of the
lakes when the Wiconsin tonnage tax il
so high as compared with that of Min
nesota 50 90 to Sc per ton-aud vessel
owners are compelled to list their fleets
order to escape the difference. Thus
All the vessels leaving the head of the
lakes hail from Duluth" and Duluth
gets all the credit. while Superior is
cast into the shade. If no vessels were
built and owned in Superior, and the
elevators and mills were al in Duluth
instead Of mostly on the Wisconsin side
Of the bay, we would have little reason
70 complain, but as things are the Situa-
ton is into!erable. In this respect our
state legislature would seem to pursue
a very unWise policy. 1t is not only
injuring Wisconsin lake ports, but de-
priving the state of revenue it would
receive under fair tonnage law, and
adding to the revenue of Minnesota.
The law should be amended as soon rs
possible. &c per ton is a fair tax on
one side of the bay it should be on the
other, and it is better to get some ton
mage revenue than none at all Besides
il is unjust to Superior to have its ship
ping listed from Duluth" instead OF
from Superior"

When Teddy Smith First Put on Pants

When Teddy Smith First Put on Pants
When Teddy Smith first put on pants
He felt 50 very grand
He won ldn't mind his mother
Or he wouldn't hold her hand.
But on the street he walked ahead,
And tried to whistle some.
He thought perhaps he 90 to war,
And fire an awful gun.
He wouldn't ride his hobby horse,
He called Jack Sprat "a fib!'
He sat at meals in fathers chair,
And scorned his gingham bib.
His mother mustn't spread his bread.
Nor cut things on his plate;
She mustn't say. mo more, my dear"
No matter what he ate.
She mustn't kiss him when he fell
And bumped him on the stones.
And she must say " Dear SIR" just as
She did to Mr.. jones'
So hard to please this gentleman
His loving mother tried.
1t quite enlarged his dignity.
And swelled his lofty pride.
And all was brave and all was well,
Until that mother said,
At S O'Clock. "Of course dear sir,
You'll go alone to bed"
All would you have me say what then
EetclI the great big man?
For if you undertake to guess
hardly think you can.
He turned the corners of his mouth
Most fearfully awry,
He rubbed his grown up fist awhile
Across his grown-up eye.
Then burying in his mothers lap
Both pride and manly joy.
He said in just the litt!est voice,
Il guess I'm just Il boy"

] The riot in Pana, H., on Monday
last, in which eight people were killed
and seven wounded, is another dark
blot on the history Of labor organiza-
tons and our civilization. 1t is idle to
talk about the barbarism of other people
when right here, in the land of the civil
lized, inofensiye people are shot down
in cold blood on their own door steps.
The state of Illinois owes it to itself and
to society to bring swift justice to every
one concerned in this bloody tragedy.
Such occurrences are becoming alto
gether too frequent.
Speaking of indecent journalism, We
would suggest to the postoffice authorI-
ties that it is time that something was
done to purge the mails and the news
stands hereabouts Of unsavory pu5lica-
tons, local and foreign. Papers resk-
ing in blasphemy and filth, misspelled
or otherwise are loathesome pest and
should nc more be tolerated than small
pox or vipers. The wonder is that they
have the audacity to claim that they
can help along any good cause, polIti-
teal. moral or civic, for they never did
do other than EVIL.
Governor Roosevelt characterizes
the so-called Reformers as GOO goos,"
and declares that IN many cases they
help to elect rogues, and that he "has
reached the point where it hurts him
to have such men identified with him. y
We have some "goo-goos" here.
The BARRIERS license bill was killed
in the state senate on Wednesday last
The senators evidently believe in the
unrestricted use of lather and blatner.
A bill is before the state senate
to compel Intelligence offices to pay $40
license and file bond. 1t is a righteous
law and should pass.
Peace has been declared between
Spain and this country, and victor and
vanished have clasped hands over the
bloody chasm.
Justice Stephen J. Field died in
Washington on Wednesday last, in his
S3rd year.
