Father Darcy, an Irish wit, was once
invited by a man who was known as
an ignorant braggart to visit a new
and beautiful house which the person,
who had become wealthy suddenly,
had bought. With more than his usual
pomposity the host dragged the priest
over the place and eXpatiated on the
excellence of everything that he own
ed. Finally they reached the immense
library where there were thousands of
volumes, all splendid in binding. The
host sank into one of the great leather
covered chairs with a sigh of content
ment and exclaimed:
''But, after all. father, what is all
this luxury compared with my favor
ties here? The other rooms maybe give
pleasure to my wife and daughters,
but this Is my place-right here among
these books. which are my friends
And these here on the desk"-pointing
to a score Of fine volumes-"are what
l may call my most intimate friends"
Father Darcy got up and examined
one of them, when broad grin spread
over his good natured face.
"Well. it's glad am to see that you
never cut your intimate friends! he
exclaimed.

The incident of Senor de Reszke re-
fusing a check insultingly offered him
by Baron Rothschild after De Reszke
had sung by request in the baron's
drawing room recalls an incident that
happened a good many years ago in
the house that Bonanza King Flood oc-
cupied on Eddy street, San Francisco,
before he built that gloomy pile on Mob
hill. He had invited a celebrated visit
ing violinist to dinner, and there were
a great many other guests. After din
ner the violinist, much to his surprise,
was asked if he would not "play some
thing" He said he had not brought
his violin with him. But Flood would
not take that hint and insisted on send
ing to the maestro's hotel for the vio-
lin and did send, and the owner played
on it and responded to two or three en-
cores. When he had done, he laid
aside the violin, put his hand into his
pocket, drew forth a 25 cent piece,
threw it on the piano and said: Now,
Mr.. Flood, every man to his trade. Mix
me a cktail."-Stockton Cali Mail.

Two navvies, i'll clad. dirt covered,
rain soaked, got possession of a heav-
emily nook between two high stone
walls while an extra heavy sleet show
er prevailed. They had "hunkered"
low and were watching the smoke
wreaths mount from their pipes. I'm

reverie, I'm toul, jamie, that the king

Betty Haran of Thrummon was a

Suspicious of the Water.

"Some years ago certain bishop of
one of the states south of Mason and
Dixon's line" said a southern gentle
man. twas visiting some friends of
mine in Alabama whom, for cOnven-
ience sake, will call the Smiths. The
bishop. returning from a walk, found
the family cat swimming around in
and vainly trying to get out of the bar
rel from which the drinking water was
drawn.
"After rescuing pussy the bishop en-
tered the house and, finding Mr.. and
Mrs. Smith in the sitting room, men
toned the circumstance, whereat the
head of the house became somewhat
excited and went out, so he said, to
have the water butt changed. Mrs.
Smith, however, merely remarked:
Dear little kitty, she often does that.

LlND's ATTITUDE.

The speech made by Coy. Lind at
the Minneapolis banquet makes clear
his position in regard second term.
He isn't satisfied with his present po-
sition because he was elected simply
because he was Johu Lind aud not be-
cause of the cause he represented.
This he does not wish to happen
again. He does not wish to triumph
if the cause does not triumph- He
would rather be defeated if the fight
for the peoples rights is to be a los
ing one in the coming campaign.
Anyone who heard Mr.. Lind deliver
his speech knows he meant every word
he said. And if anyone, who voted
for Lind alone and then for all the old
republican state house crowd and
members Of the legislature, will stop
and think he will see that the governor
Is right. When you had determ ned
in your own mind that the state gov
ernment needed a change and that
John Lind was the man to lead, you
should not only have voted for Lind but
for those who would support him in
his work. 1t wasn't fair to place
Lind alone at the head, and then elect
men who would attempt to balk him
at every turn. The state needs John
Lind, but his hands should not be tied.
Says the governor:
''If felt thatI could represent in tn at
high position the aspirations, the pol
litical ideals and the political hopes
of a majority of the citizens of this
state, there would be no prouder posi-
tiOn for me to fll.'
There is no doubt that as far as
state matters go. the governor does re-
present the political hopes of a ma
jority Of our citizens, but in casting
their votes their party prejudices as
serted themselves and they retreated
after having taken the first step for
ward. But in the rally of 1900 let
there be no such weakness. Either
stay back and vote for the entire old
gang, if that is the height of your po-
litical ideals, or come boldly forward
and give your entire support to John
Lind and a better state government.
Then will the North Star state be re-
deemed and the beginning of the twen-
tieth century witness a new order of
things for the better in our fair CON-
mOnwealth.
Willmar tribune., 1900-01-17
FROM JUSTICE BREWER.

Justice Brewer of the U. S. Supreme
Court-"I have had no military edu-
cation; ] do not know how to conduct
war; do not edit a yellow Journal; {;
and so yield unquestioning assent
to the claims made by army and navy
gentlemen, that, in case of war, coal
ing stations in different parts of the
globe are desirable. And yet, with
the incredulity and questioning spirit
of a Yankee, I cannot but notice that
we have gotten along safely for an
hundred years without coaling stations
outside our own territory. And fur
ther it is clear that for a coaling sta
tion territory as large as New Eng
land is not essential. But, beyond
that, is there not such a thing as over
doing this getting ready for war? I
have noticed that a man who goes
about with chip on his shoulder is
very apt to have many quarrels, but
the gentleman who minds his own busi-
ness is ordinarily let alone and goes
through life without fight. I'VE
have lived and prospered for 123 years
with handful of regular troops.
We have preserved peace at home and
have been respected abroad. Govern
ment by consent of the governed has
little need of the soldier. So the world
has come to believe, and so it is. Are
we ready to forfeit this high position?
DO we not endanger the very founda-
tion principles of this government
when we make the blare of the bugles
and the tramp of the armed battalion
the music which is heard on every side
and the inspiration which attracts the
ambition of our youth? "May God
save the United States of America and
keep them from the road so often trav-
elled by nations, of increased terrific
ry, accumulating dominion, rapidly
and easily acquired wealth, luxurious
splendor, a growing separation be-
tween the poor and the rich, decay
aud death; and may we always hear
the solemn prayer of Abraham Lin
coin, borne upward to Heaven from
the consecrated field of Gettys burg,
that the government of, by and for
the people may never perish from the
earth!'

est and searching than before. The
TRIBUNE publishes a portion of his
speech in another column. The per.
oration which brought this notable
gathering to close conveys a world
of meaning to the patriot at the same
time that it hurls defiance at plutoc-
racy and tyranny.
The enthusiasm which WAS inspired
into the beings of the representatives
OF the reform forces of the state pres
ent at this meeting we'll be diffused all
over the commonwealth. Enthusiasm
for a righteous cause and true polit-
ical principles is more potent than
that inspired merely by money or hope
of office for private gain only. Watch
