school teacher: | knock on the pupil
who annoys her, on tie superintendent
who overworks her, on tie parent who
|1gnorantly criticises hei, on the para

funny man who makes sport of her, on
the school board that underpays her,
and on The thousand single fools who

This is not official, but we are inform
ed that State Senator George W. Somer-
Vile will soon 'sshy his castor" into the
senatorial arena with number of legis-
lative members at his back. If Evans
and Clapp develop anything like the
same strength it is hard to tell where
the lightning may strike. While the writ
er was running paper sever raj years ago
in Kansas, we remember senatorial con-
test in which the leaders became dead
locked on the 36th ballot, and Mr.. Bak-
er. of Leavenworth, who started in the
race wich one vote, captured the seat in
the United States Senate
Star.

| surgeon, performed an operation, which
was pronounced very successful, and the
Major, at last accounts, was doing we'll,
AID in no danger unless the supervening
SYMPTOMS should prove unfortunate. The
major is ~ years old and served in the
old First Minnesota infantry during the
civil war.
According to the report of w. A.
Gates, agent Of The state board Of charj-
ties and corrections, $4,000 were spent
during the past two years in deporting
insane people and others who had be-
come public charges. This can we'll
be spared, however, for the state was
saved 100000. There were considered
14S cases in all, of which 10 were de-
ported, and all these but three were in
sane. Of these there were deported to
European countries, %; Canada 3; Mex
leo, 1; other states, so; total, 1O6. Of
the number deported Is were old cases
in the hospital when this law was passed ;
were reported during previous period !;
was an old case in reformatory and "a

| County Attorney Olsen has just re-
ceived notice from the supreme court
of its decision in the celebrated horse
thief bounty case which arose in this
county. Chas Scherin was convicted in
JAM, 1900, of horse stealing, and A. E.
Loper and G.. G. Lewis who caught him
applied for the bounty allowed by law,
which used to be $500, but which in
1897 was amended to $50 1t was
claimed the amendment was unconstitu-
tional, and 5000 was demanded. The
decision of the district court was for
$50, and on an appeal, this is affirmed
by the supreme court. 1t is notable
legal triumph for County Attorney Olsen
who had some lawyers of high reputa-
tion opposed to him in this case
