the breeding OF good stock by the farmers
of Minnesota and has attracted the atten-
tion Of breeders in other states to the ad-
vantages of Minnesota as a stockraising
state. The fair has. therefore, led to
improvements in stock, and to the invest
mept of capital in stock-raising In Min
nesota.
It has been long time since Minnesota
did anything in q systematic way to
attract immigration. The, state long ago
got,to such point that 1T was considered
unnecessary to have regular system OF
attracting and bringing people to Min
nesota. But the state fair Is turning out
to be a good immigration agent. It at
tracts many people from without the
borders of the state who, coming as mere
sightseers, become interested in the state
and eventually buy property here. This
class Of newcomers is especially desirable
because it has accumulated property.
Probably no state in the union has
fair that is so uniformly beneficial to the
state and financially successful: as the
Minnesota state fair. Other states are
putting on. more money in fair plants
than we are and may eventually surpass
us in other respects, but at the present
time the Minnesota fair Is the best of all.

criticism and suggestions of an active
voluntary association supply public Of

couragement. Every official does better
work IL he knows that he is being closely
watched by citizens who will appreciate
good work and condemn bad work. who
will understand his purposes and COM
prehend his difficulties. Moreover, the
routine duties of many public offices keep
officials from taking the initiative. That
essential part, of public Improvement can
be supplied in large measure by such an
association as that of the San Francisco
merchants or the Minneapolis Commercial
club .r.

SOME LEGISLATIVE OMISSIONS

|, Congress will probably adjourn during
the next ten days, and with the adjourn
ment several measures Of real Importance
will be carried over to the short session.
It is hoped that the house and senate
conferees on the Isthmian canal bill may
come toSan agreement on the senate bill,
which has displaced the Hepburn bill. as
public sentiment will not dispassionately
contemplate a failure of canal legisla-
tion at this session.
The Cuban reciprocity bill rests among
defeated or deferred measures, the victim
of an overprotected interest which, it is
sad to say, has shown power to control
national legislation recommended by two
republican administrations. The same In
terest will prevent the ratification of a
special reciprocity treaty, if it is brought
into the senate before congress adjourns.
It is recognized that the champions of ex-
IRENE protection. have, by their con-
tumelious proceedings, greatly impaired
the strength of their extreme policy anu
have given stimulus to the protago-
nists OF purely legitimate protection.
They have overreached themselves.
The Philippine government bills passed

THIS "NO" MEANS No

Former Governor John Lind has at last
taken such steps as must convince his
most enthusiastic supporters that there
will be no John Lind on the democratic
ticket this fall. Those who know the gov
ernor we'll have long been convinced that
he was unreservedly opposed to making
another race for governor. He enjoys a
good law practice in Minneapolis. He has
an opportunity to make some aecumula-
tions against rainy day. He has formed
enjoyable social and business relations.
On the other hand, to take the democratic
nomination for governor again would
mean the loss of much business, the STIR
ring up of some old antipathies, hard
work, no inconsiderable physical and men,
tai strain and the unpleasantness of de-
leat. 49,. '
Even though the former governor might
consent to forego the demands of~his pri-
vate affairs and inclinations he might, 1t
appears to us, have taken the nomination
If he thought there was probability Of
victory. But he is shrewd politician and
a good political prophet. In his three
. campaigns for the governorship he always
took cooler view of the outlook than his
associates He doubtless knows that as
the situation stands to-day in Minnesota
he would probably be defeated. He may
consider that a campaign based on Gov
ernor Van SAINTS stand with regard to the
Northern Securities merger will be one
of ''humbuggery,' but he is not blind to
the fact that If 1t Is humbuggery it will
be very powerful with the voters. 49,:
So long as Governor Lind contented
/, himself with declaring that he was not a
candidate for governor and merely hoped
that his friends would not attempt to
nominate him, there remained in the
bourbon breast the hope that the govern
or might yet be forced to run. But in the
let ter published in T ournal Sat-
urday he definitely declares that if he is
nominated despite his wishes he will de-
cline the nomination. - ..F r5"- IN
The st. Paul Globe this morning, and
some individuals, still assert that Lind
will be nominated regardless of his wish
and his warning. We do not believe the
convention will so act. If it does John
Lind will surely adhere to his declaration
and decline the nomination. To take a
step that will lead to such an embarrass-
ment would ibe to look for trouble.
Nevertheless, because Mr.. Rosing has
all along acted as if the governor could
be brought into line democrats have gone
ahead up to this time confident that Mr..
! Lind would lead them. They must now

: are that Mr.. Rosing himself will have to
make the fight that Mr.. Lind will not
make. ~,

4 a ..SEE1NG MINNEAPOLIS CAR"

The street railway company Is said to
be arranging special car for the bathers
at Lake Calhoun. That is commendable
as bit of enterprise and act Of consid-
Grafton for the convenience Of the public.
There is another matter which T b g
j our:n a l would commend to the care
full consideration of the street railway
management, and that is the propriety Of
running special car over the larger part
of the system. twice a day for the benefit
of citizens and visitors who may wish to
see the city and who can see more of it
and to better advantage from the street
car than can he seen in the same time in
any other way. H.
: In Los Angeles, San Francisco, Wash
ington and In other cities, there is pro-
vided for tourists and visitors every day,
especially through the tourist season, a
special car called the 'tSeeing Washing
ton Car" or whatever city the car may
he operated in. This car is peculiarly
constructed for the purpose of seeing the
city and makes two trips daily of two or
three hours, forSthe round trip fare. 1t
is provided with "a conductor who informs
the visitor about the places OF interest
which the car passes and gives good
running history of the city.
Something of this kind was attempted a
year or two ago in Minneapolis, but was
abandoned very. soon afterward on the
ground that it did not pay. This is proba-
bly, one of the things the street railway
company ought to do even If 1t doesn't
pay, but the probabilities are that during
the presence of the teachers here to at
tend the N. e. "A. convention it would pay
well. And once inaugurated, this con-
venience would probably be patronized
quite largely by the Minneapolis people
through the summer season. as we'll as by
the many tourists who are coming to this
city in increasing numbers every sum-
mer.

Books and Authors
WHAT'S THE USE =?

Scientists have been for some time trying
to discover a good substitute for the paper
now used for the printing OF DOCKS, winch
will resist the disintegrating effects OF time
and use, and possess freproof qualities. It
Is to be hoped that they will not succeed.
Books, whether written by hand on parch-
ment or papyrus, or whether baked clay,
with cuneiform characters indented upon
them, survive the wrack OF time in too great
numbers 1t is probably no great loss to the
reading world that the .Alexandrian library
was use by unappreciative Asiaties as fuei
to heat the water in the capacious bath
houses of the city. 1t would be no eparalyz-
ing calamity if 60 to 80 per cent OF the nc
ton published now were likewise destroyed
The discovery of indestructible paper would
simply cucumber the world with an immense
amount of trash. -. 81. 7 .' .s -

this kind at least to pay the state fee OF
considerable amount for the privilege OF
overproducing books which generally, after
one edition, are heard of no more. There is,
happily, by the increase OF circulating llbra-
ries, a prospect Of continuous reduction IN
the number Of books of transient or ephem-
eral value bought by readers. The use of
novel for nickel or free of charge makes
it unnecessary to pay one or two dollars
volume for books which are not worth the
paper they are printed on. The search for
material upon which to print books which
will not decay is useless. There will be no
advantage to literature if 1t is found. The
Sinaitic manuscript of the Bible found by
Tischendorff is about 1850 years old. and
papyrus manuscripts double and treble that
age are found in the hypogea of Egypt, while
most any secondhand bookstore can show
quaint leather bound books with brass clasps,
one, two or three centuries old. Most of this
old printed literature Is useless for prac-
teal purposes and is noticeable only as in

There is a wholesome atmosphere Of music

ming painted as an amateur, but longed to
devote his life to the art. He decided, after

did not take long to discover that the girls
praise of her brother was justifable. Before
many days the two men expressed themselves
as perfectly satisfied with his services.
AS the days went by the relations between

Mr.. Danielson was an enthusiast in his pro-
fession and found the voice of the young girl
fully as attractive as alligator hunting Day
after day he listened to her singing making

But in time even her language grew less
harsh to his ears. And her eyes were so
brown and deep. SO frank and open. What
mattered few oddities of expression?
One day Mr.. Lowery took him to task.
"You must go slow, Danelson." he said
warningly. ''You are only g. and Liza Is no
ordinary girl. But you know the impossi-

was glad to meet him.
