THE Democrats we're victorious in
the city election at St. Paul this week,
and Mayor Smith was elected by a
majority of from 1000 to $500. This
is the fifth time he has been elected
mayor of that city. The victory was a
sweeping one, the Democrats even
wrestling the city mptrollership from
the ''watchdog," McCardy. Every
ward was carried for Smith with the
exception of the First, Seventh, Tenth
and Eleventh, all strongly Republican,
but in the Tenth even Dobner, Demo
cratic candidate, and present alder
man, was reelected. The St. Paul
victory cannot be called one OF
party principle, though local issues
were injected into the campaign with
a vengeance. Dick O'Conner and his
smoothly working machine did the
business. X

A LONE patriarch with long white
hair and beard, occupying his little
sphere in an aims house in Switzer-
land, is Henry Dunant, originator of
the Red Cross society that has sent the
angel of mercy over many a battle
field and alleviated in measure the
horrors of war. The administration
of the Nobel fund for the advancement
of scientific and humanitarian, propa-
ganda and Investigations selected
Dunant and Frederick Passey to divide
the annual prize for the most useful
efforts to promote the cause of peace,
and Dunant's share of this award is
10000 francs, but though once a mil
lionaire this man now estranged from
the world does not care for the honor
and will not accept it. He is too old
and feeble to travel to Stockholm to be
so honored, and with a grand life work
finished, he desires to remain secluded
and alone and away from the world
into which he breathed the sweet
spirit of peace and mercy. From his
youth he inherited deep love for
humanity. During the Crimean war
when the voice of Florence Nigthen-
gale was heard above the din and roar
of the battle field, Dunant resolved to
dedicate his life to the cause of human
lty. 1t was at the battle of Solferino
where 10000 sons of women laid down
their lives, that Dunant laid the corner
stone of the Red Cross movement. He
was then wealthy and poured out his
treasures for the alienation of the
sick and wounded. He wrote book
describing the horrors of that awful
battle and as it was written with his
life blood IL went deep into the hearts
of sovereigns and subjects alike. The
result OF his work is that to-day thirty
eight countries hold the wounded in
violable Dunant spent his fortune
and the best years of his life for the
building up of the Red Cross society, a
monument of human. love and pity that
will endure for all time. ~

Power vs.. Principle.

There are : some that have
learned the lesson Rhodes could not
grasp. It will be many a long year be-
fore the British empire will try to SUBJ
due any more republics, to wipe out
any more petty nationalities that are
determined to live. The Chamber
lains of this generation and the next
will have a wholesome respect for the
power of sentiment in this world.
They will realize that for some people
there are still things to which wealth
is not to be compared; that devotion is
more powerful than bank accounts;
that patriotism is stronger than gold:
that the proudest regiments may be-
crushed by few shabby herders con-
tending for principle.
The Beers, shattered and torn and
beaten, and deprived of their cherished
national life, have, in the dying agon-
les of their little republics, taught US
all a lesson. When any man shall say
hereafter that money is the only force
in our commercial age it will be an
answer to him to speak of Spion Kop
and Magersfontein, to point to DeWet
and Delarey, to Steyn and to Botha, to
10000 Beers in prison camps, to 10000
dead; to the $4,000 British soldiers
whom old England will never see
again.-Minneapelis journal.

In presenting the diplomas to the
members of the graduating class at
the naval academy at Annapolis last
week, President Roosevelt said to the
young seamen: "Ohicers and men alike
must have the sea habit; officers and
men alike must realize that in battle
the only shots that count are the shots
that hit, and that normally the victory
will lie with the side whose shots hit
oftenest Seamanship and marksman-
ship-these must be thestwo prime OBJ
jects of your training, both for your
selves and for the men under you.''

.PR0E. SHAW,s GREAT. york.

s. PROF. SHAW,S GREAT WORK.
S The St. Paul Dispatch of last Satur-
day contained character sketch. of
Prof. Thomas Shaw, professor of
animal industry zof the Minnesota
school of agriculture, which position
he has filled for several years with
eminent success. The sketch was evil
IDENTIFY written by one who knows Prof.
Shaw intimately, for his character is
we'll analysed. Prof. Shaw by his
great work in the chair Of animal has
bandry has not only dignifed and ele-
waited the live stock industry of Mime
sofa, but he has aided largely in plac-
ing it on a solid, safe and successful
foundations. When he first came to
Minnesota and would be announced at
farm institute to lecture on sheep the
farmers would look sheepish and bolt
for the door. Now however, the mere
mention of the fact that he will talk
on sheep and live stock in general will
always bring out a full house. But his
work has not been alone confined to
the live stock question, as he has been
conducting experiments in all the
broad channels of agriculture. In all
his inquiries, Investigations and study
he does not confne himself to narrow
limits, and his keen and penetrating
foresight is something remarkable.
We have heard him address conven-
tions of ranchmen in North Dakota
and Montana on "Australian bronze
grass" as he could see the necessity in
that part of the west for laying the
foundation for better and more per.
manent grass and forage supply.
When he first commenced to talk to
the cattlemen about grass he was
looked upon as more or less of theor-
ist and dreamer, but he followed it up
for several seasons and when at any of
those conventions now his name is
mentioned he always is greeted with a
full house. At the Montana expert
ment farm at Bozeman Prof. Shaw has
a son who is at the head of the institu-
ton and is doing great work in advanc-
ing the cause of agriculture in that
state. In resigning from his active
duties as professor of animal hus-
bandry Prof. Shaw did so in order to
enable him to secure more time for
practical experiments in all branches
OF agriculture and to help the man
who farms quarter sections of land or
less to, make it a profitable calling.
He has consented to retain his lecture
ship in the school of agriculture, but
will devote large share of his time
at experimental work on a farm near
St. Paul that he has purchased in COM
pany with the editor of 1.-THE Farmer"
at St. Paul. He is an untiring worker
and rises at and o'clock every morn
ing at which hours he does a great
deal of his work and it is said that he
intends to publish book on "Frag-
ments' every line of which was writ
ten before breakfast hours. The farm
ing community will await with inter-
est some of the results of Prof. Shaw's
Investigations and work on his own ex-
pertinent farm and it is to be presumed
that he will make old mother earth
fairly talk.

SPECIAL NOTICES.
sUwANEE SPRINGS WATER.

Our agent in New York city obtained
the following:
Report of DR.. Cook, Surgeon Bellevue
Hospital Fourth Surgeons Division
Peter Doyle, Patient.
Upon admission the patient was
found to be suffering from chronic cys-
tits with large quantities of pus and
some blood in his urine. He also had an
enlarged PROSTATE, and he was unable
to completely empty his bladder.
He was placed upon Suwanee Springs
Water in conjunction with washing out
of his bladder, and at the end of two
weeks a surprising change was no.
ticed and the enlargement of the pros
trate was so nearly overcome that he
could entirely empty his bladder at his
own volition.
He was discharged from the ward at
the end of three weeks with his urine
perfectly clear, and could pass an en-
tire night without urinating.
The result was quite surprising to
all.
AND YET ANOTHER-READ THIS.
Report of DR.. Cook. Bellevue Hospital,
Fourth Surgeons Division-Patient,
VIM. Crowley.
Patient came in hospital suffering
from chronic nephritis (Bright's dis
ease). His urine showed both granular
and hyaline casts and some pus and
blood cells. The usual remedies were
used, but with little benefit; he was
placed on Suwanee Springs Water in
doses of 80 OF. per day, and at the end
of two weeks an appreciable improve
ment was noticed. This treatment was
continued for eight weeks, at the end
of which time no casts could be found
under microscopic examination, and
the specific gravity had increased eight
points from 1908. Patient was discharg-
ed at his own urgent request, appar-

gree in all cases. I think that it will
finally be used almost entirely in Just
such cases as the one you sent me. Mrs

case, and l shall take great interest in
