We think Muir ray county should

if Mobiles county can puts up the best

An attempt will be made to in
crease the salaries of high govern
ment officials as a method to reduce
the surplus. Some government
officials may be entitled to an in
crease of salaries but it is not the
congressman. If they don't like
their present salary let them stay at
home and do little manual labor.

of it to act as a drag while the house
was descending the grade.
A start had been made when the

SHORT OF MONEY.

Two sweet faced, refined appear

girls of an age bordering on young
womanhood, partook of the city's
hospitality last night. They had
been visiting in Seattle, Wash. Tor

for their home at Volga,S d., hay:
ing been sent tickets by. their mother
and just enough money to pay for
their meals. They expected to make
close connection and stay on the car
all the time, but their train into st:
Paul yesterday was two hours late,
which necessitated their remaining
at the union depot there until the
evening train south. j They: arrived
at Mankato at l1:1s 81 the Sioux
CITY train and had. to wait until the.
next train here or at Tracy, and
preferred to wait "a Mankato. They
concluded to spend the night in the
union depot, but a gentleman who
saw them there advised them to go
to the city hall, which they did.
The police offered to provide accom-
madations at hotel for them, j.. but
az the girls preferred to say at the
city hall. They took matters. good
naturally and seemed perfectly con-
tented. The older remarked that
their mother would given them

The people of Gotham no doubt

The people of Gotham no doubt
prefer the imported tubers
stamped "Grown in Ireland" but
the rest of the country does not
want to be ruined by the pauper po-
tatoe of Europe. When the dingley
tariff bill put a duty of rs cents q
bushel on potatoes it was thought
that the wall was amply high enough
to protect our infant potato patches
from the pauper product across the
seas. But potatoes from Ireland,
Scotland and Belgium are climbing
over the tariff wall in a manner that
threaten to PROSTATE home industry.
If this flood of potatoes could be
kept out long enough the farmers
who are lucky enough to have the
farers who are lucky enough to have
planted a good crop could market all
they have at from a to Is q barrel.
Potatoes can be bought in Europe,
however for 70 cents bushel. After
paying the duty on them they can
be landed on the pier in New York
for 81. 70 a barrel. This is "a great
thin for the people who eat potatoes.
But craftsmanship does not concern
itself about the consumer; the pro-
Queer must be protected from the

i st. Louis.. Globe Democrat Some
democrats are giving pretty hard
knocks to their party these days.
Here is Congressman Burleson, of
Texas, for example, who says that
the $50 called democratic party is
made up of an aggregation of dis
oordapt factions, some of them
standing for every economic and
governmental fallacy conceived by
diseased minds. He says he is
heartily tired of entering caucuses
with men protesting to be democrats
who represent populistic, socialistic
and semirepublicans. who are pri-
vileged to advise the democracy, but
who, if their advice is regarded, bolt
the caucus, thus giving the country
the impression that the democracy
is at all times and on all questions
hopelessly divided.
This sizes up the situation for
the democrats accurately. The Tex

in national politics, but he is obser-
want, and the things which he says
have often been said by older and

1t is reported that the young
woman who subjected herself to
incubation with the germs of bovine
tuberculosis, in order to test the
theory of Dr.. Koch that bovine tu-
berculosis is incommunicable to
human being, has developed symp-
tom of the disease, and will die UNI
less he can be recovered by the in
lection of the Koch lymph, which is
held to be remedy for consumption
in it's early stage. Yellow journal
ism is so rampant that it is some
times difficult to determine the ex-
act degree of credence which should
be given when matters like this
are the subject of newspaper dis
patches. But assuming the reports
concerning Miss Kings condition to
be true, it must be admitted that
she has performed heroic act, and
that if she looses her life in conse-
quence Of it, her memory will be
emit tied to respect. There is a vast
difference between the risking OF
ife as Miss King 1isked hers and the
risking of life after the manner ct
the woman who PERMITTED herfse4
to be ,eucased in a barrel and sent
over Niagara Falls. g.
In the latter case there was no.
principle to be deduced, no scientific
truth to be discovered which it.
would benefit humanity to know.
The survival of the heroine" of the
barrel would imply nothing beyond
the fact that the barrel in which she
travelled was well built and had been
fortunately whirled into favorable
currents, and that the rescure1s who
waited for it below the rapids had
been alert in securing it and bring
in9t it to shore. The heroine of the
experiment with bovine tuberculin,
on the other hand, subjected, her.
self to an ordeal the result of which
if cleary established may be, the
means of. protecting countless num-
be1s of human beings from disease
and death.
The doubt which DR.. Koch sug-
gested as to the commlmicability
of bovine tuberculosis has a bearing
upon the practice of civilized COM
throughout the world. If
what DR.. Koch believes is true, the
policy of preventing the sale Of the
milk and meat Of tuberculous cattle
is wasteful, and should be abandon
ed If not, the policy should be
continued and extended. The weight
of his great opinion, uncontroverted
by positive evidence, would WELD a
vast influence against the observance
of expensive precautions. But if
that opinion is erroneous, and if Miss
Kings sacrifice of herself for the
purpose of test is the means of dem
onstrating. it to be erroneous, then
to her belongs the gratitude and adj
miration which have always been
accorded to noble individual risking
their own lives that the lives Of
others might be saved.-Milwaukee
