YESTERDAY, after a long wrestle
with the problem, the board of pardons
decided to parole the Younger broth
ers. For twenty-five years they have
been inmates of the State prison and
during all that time have been model
prisoners. Administrations have come
and gone, and while many of the in
cumbents have felt that the prisoners
had been sufficiently punished, none
had the courage to pardon or parole
them. Then came the board of par
dons and as the unanimous vote of this
body was necessary to secure release
the friends of the prisoners almost
gave up hope of obtaining freedom for
them. The UNION has for years urged
the release of the Youngers. It be-
lieved that they had been punished
sufficiently and that for humanitv's
sake they should be given an oppor-
tunity to breathe freedoms air during
their few remaining years. It there
fore cannot too strongly endorse the
action OF the pardoning board. Gov.
VanSant, Chief Justice Start and At
torneY General Douglas were of the
opinion that the ends of Justice had
been served and possessed the courage
to officially say 50. Gentlemen, you
have done well. l.

HENNEPIN county's grand jury is
again in session and Judge Elliot has
charged them that the moral condi-
tions of the city still demand their at
tention. At it's last session the jury
made a record in this line and it was
thought that the midnight workers
would let up on their operations. The
backing they have apparently received
from the municipal government, how
ever, seems to have given them re-
newed confidence and the county must
take up the work again. The gamblers
will come in for another overhauling,

OIL VS.. POLITICS,

It is awful to behold the way in which
the corroding desire for riches is de-
moralizing the ranks of the erstwhile
calamity howlers. Towne and Bailey
and many others have dropped politics
for Texas oil. Now comes Senator
Marion Butler, enroute to Alaska on
some matchmaking scheme, and says,
damn free silver" According to Mr..
Buffers remarks incident to the wise
observation just quoted, these are
times above reproach. All the Popu-
lists wanted was plenty of money; now
they've got it or are getting it. Popu-
lism was an expression of economic
discomfort. With the passing of the
discomfort the expression disappears.

themselves in a bad boat now. Their

is raging the employees of the railroad

with great regularity and those who
retain their situations are called upon
to perform an increased number of
duties. The whole idea seems to be to
stife competition.

"THE TIDE OF LIFE"

A picturesque and highly interest ing melodrama entitled The Tide of Life, follows at the Jacques, opening with a special matinee on Monday. IT is d play in which love. treachery. mans cruelty, woman's suffering and the fight between innocence and ras- cality give plenty of material which the author has worked up with much skill. There is an abundance of striking scenery and Il profusion of novel electrical and stage effects. Many of the situations are thrilling and require considerable nerve in the performers, and the comedy is so deftly intermingleu with the pathetic scenes as to keep the interest intensi- fled throughout.

Never in home dressmaking cut any kind of wooden goods until they have been sponged, as cheap material is often not dampened before it is sold. To do this properly at home get an ironing board or table the width of the goods and cover with tightly stre tched calico. Spread your cloth wrong side up, cover with linen cloth that has been well wrung out in water and then press with a hot iron the lengthwise of the goods. New CT let the iron be still, and the goods must fall evenly on the floor on to a clean cloth as pressed.

The close of the first period found Portland leading by a margin of three goals and then Furbush proceeded to s'quit" and during the remainder of the game he loafed around the sur face like a hired man. Furbush has worked this same trick in Portland
 pn several previous occasions, and he apparently is not aware of the fact that the spectators who put up the money from which he draws his sal ary do not go to q polo game to see a man loaf, but they expect him to play the game all the time.

How to Clean n Piano.


 The materials required for washing piano keys are a dish of tepid water, a cake of soap and three pieces of clean, thin fannel. Take one piece of cloth and wet it; then rub it over the cake of soap and apply it to the piano-a small portion of the surface at a time. Then wet another piece of flannel, and with this rub off the soap as thoroughly as possible. With the third piece dry the part treated, rubbing it till it shines brightly. and do it all as quickly as pos sible, that the soap may not rennain too long upon the polished surface.
