From the Warrior Breeze: It appears that Chief c. w.

He has issued orders to stop those low-minded fellows from gazing and trying to make a mash" When Birmingham is truly better then she will at once begin to be greater.
 From the Huntsville Daily Mercury The German-Amerioans of Birmingham have endorsed the candidacy of Governor Jelks. The resolution sets out his firm stand in behalf of the suppressing of lynching, his encouragement to those who are endeavoring to bring German American colonists to Alabama and his fitness for the station he occupies It is evident the German-Americans will have company in the support of Governor Jelks-lots of 1t.
 From the Prattville Progress: From the Birmingham papers we observe that there Is to be another state fair this fall We are glad of it. There Is no good reason why Alabama should not have a permanent State Fair Association, and such a one as will bring fair remunera- ton to those who may take the matter in hand. A good state fair Is a good thing for any state. It in time fills state with better stock, letter poultry. better ce- reals, better everything.

General Hughes told the Senate committee that the natives of Samar wept when our colored troops were re- moved. This is proof positive that the natives of Samar were infatuated with the great American game of craps, and that they have not reached the chicken-roost stage of civilization.
 The Filipino brand of consideration was not given a very great boast when another outbreak followed the assertion of General Funston that there was no more war in the Philip pines than there was in Kentucky.

The regular deadhead advertisement of Bishop Potter of New York, written by himself for money motives, and in which at this late day he has caused the pub lie to be informed that he Is personally closely attached to Booker Washington, will be accepted at its true value in the South, and Southerners will be inclined to sympathize with the respected presi- dent of the Tuskegee school for the com pany he is obliged sometimes to keep.
 Certainly as between this Bishop Pot ter who breaches the glory or God for the accumulation of dollars, and Booker Washington, who is an honest man en- gagged in the greatest individual educa- tional work on this continent, the gen. uine Southerner would give his conf- dence and respect to the negro citizen of Alabama.
 'I congratulate you on your guest-he dined with me once and I never had a guest I enjoyed more" was Bishop Pot ters ineonceivably rude and impertinent telegram to President Roosevelt the day after the latter entertained Booker Wash ington at dinner in the White House At least Bishop Potter says he sent such a message, and we may accept his word for 1t MT.

A plaster is the best form of external rem.

the strong points of the godfathers of

Swedish Titles.

One of the old customs is for people
to indicate their business upon their
visiting cards. You will receive the
card of Lawyer Jones or Banker Smith
or Notary johnson or Music Professor
Brown or Grosserer (Which means
wholesale merchant Furgeson or Geol-
ogist Thompson, and if a man ever
held an Office it is customary to indi-
cate that fact upon his card. A burgo-
master is always burgomaster, con-
sui is always a consul and an alderman
always an alderman. The prefxes
"Hon." and "Mr." are seldom used, and
the title, whether commercial or pro-
fessional, is observed in conversation
in the same way. 1t would sound rath-
er queer for any one in the United
States to ask, "Wholesale Merchant
MacVeagh, will you kindly pass the
butterW or Banker Hutchinson, will
you escort Frau Board of Trade Oper-
ator Jones to the tablet" or "Director
of Music Ziegfeld, l wish you good
day." but that is the custom in Swe-
den, and it is observed by children as
well as grown people. A lisping child
will approach guest, make a pretty
little bob courtesy and say, Good
morning, Chief Justice of Supreme
Court Smith," or Good night, Repre-
sentative In Congress Brown"
1t is customary also for ladies to-
print their maiden names upon their
visiting cards in smaller type under
their married names, particularly if
they have a pride of family and want
people to know their ancestry.-Chica-;

Her husband had not given her the

Her husband had not given her the
diadem.
But hearing him enter, she turned,
and, seeing that he held casket in his
hands, she comprehended everything.
With a bound she was beside him, her
arms twined around his neck.
''Oh, how good you are! How good
you are! How love you'll" He trem-
bled all over and was very pale. Gem
ma did not even perceive it. All at
once, with one of her irresistible move
ments, she loosened her arms from his
neck, took with one hand the casket,
and with the other holding her hus-
bands hand she led him after her to
the mirror. She seated herself and
opened the casket. Among puffs of red
plush, under the burning light, the
diadem sent forth sparks like flame.
She had new outburst of joy, took the
husbands head between her hands,
drew it down and kissed his forehead
oh, the forehead Of corpse, icy and
livid! Then, without looking at his
features, his wandering gaze, she Of
fered him the diadem and bent before
him her blond head, which was so well
suited to that mystical jewel.
"Come, sir, crown me!'
And while he sought to unite with
trembling hands the clasp of the gems
among those marvellous blond curls,
waving and breaking into ripples of
gold at every movement, she, still with
her bent head, lifted her smiling eyes
to meet his look. And he answered
with a resigned gentleness to the smile
of those perilous blue eyes, he, the poor
man who deceived for the sake of de-
sire to be deceived and who bought fol
himself little mock love with-mock

AS to the Merger.

The HERALD has been called to
account for its last weeks editorial
referring to the Northern Securities
Company, and yet it fails to see
wherein its utterance was ill-con-
sidered or untimely; other, perhaps,
than that it did not state the mat
ter forcibly enough to be generally
understood. Mr.. Hills statement
fully iustifies the action taken by
him and his business associates
in thwarting the purposes of the
Hartman interests in their efforts
to gain control of the Northern
Pacific road, that it might tack it
upon the tail of their Union Pa
cifc kite. Who, that has given
the matter serious consideration,
could for a moment doubt that
such a result would be Immediately
preiudiciaI to the interests of the
Northwest territory traversed by
its line? To say that no such con-
dition threatened is to deny the
patent situation, and to openly de-
clare that Mr.. Hill is untruthful-a
very violent assumption. Better,
a thousand times better, for Mime
sofa that there be community of
interests beWeen the Great North
ern and the Northern Pacific, than
that such a community existed be-
tween the Union Pacific and the
Northern Paeifc-with the Union
Pacific in control.
We of the Northwest know Mr..
Hill, and have confidence in him.
He has been the tremendous power
in developing its interest. He has
made two rails to- grow where it
seemed presumptuous folly to think
that one-even rail fence-could
flourish before. He has touched
vast areas with the magic wand of
his prescience, and those areas are
shipping twenty bushels to the
acre over these rails. Mr.. Hill has
benefited by lt-but not until
after the farmer raised the twenty
bushels per upon heretofore un-
accessible acres. One hundred
farmers had to prosper before this
one railroad president could share
in that prosperity-and he made
the conditions possible.
Think of all these things calmly
and dispassionately before passing
Judgment. Consider what Sank
Centre and western Stearns would
have been, must have been, but
for Mr.. Hill. The immediate reply
is that some one else would have
done it. if he had not. Very we'll
in that case the HERALD would
now be endorsing the prescience
of that some one else, instead of Mr..
Hill. The principle is the same.
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1902-01-02

AS a step preliminary to defeat
ing the purpose of the Northern
Sucreties company temporary in
junction was granted by Judge e.
lott of Minneapolis against retiring
the preferred stock of the Northern
Pacific road. This injunction was
dissolved by the Federal court,
Judge Lochren delivering the opin.
ion. Gov. VanSant is, very prop
erly taking such steps os shall bring
into court the question of the leg
atty of the proposed method of
bringing obout the community of
interests of the two great northwes-
tern transcontinential systems, and
determining as a question of law
and fact whether the proposed
movement is really an unlawful con-
,solidation in fact or in principal.
-Four governors of the northwest
met in Helena, Mont, on Monday
last and endorsed the action of the
Governor of Minnesota in deter
mining in court the status of the
proposed merger. Mr.. Hill of the
Great Northern and Mr.. Mellere of
the Northern Pacific, respective
presidents of the roads, publicly de-
clare that consolidation" directly
or indirectly, is not involved. Are
they truthful and sincere? That is
practically the issue both in fact and
in law. The burden rests upon
those who would deny it.
