The tax ferret scheme which Henne-
pin county is about to adopt to collect
unpaid taxes and unearth untaxed
property is poor proposition and is
not warranted by law or common

ent law gives all tax officers, the asses

the town and village boards up to the
State board, the final board of review.

discover the same and appraise the
same and see that it is returned at a
reasonable valuation. The law in

The Minneapolis Tribune has estab-
a department for the rural free deliv-
cry service and it ought to prove a
winner. We notice in the Tribune this
statement: Reports from over 5000
carriers throughout the United States
show that it takes just a fraction less
than threee horses to handle each
route, and that the expense for main
tanning each route and outfit runs from
$4,000 to $4,000 per year, which
leaves considerably less than 81. 90 per
day for salary" The rural mail car
rlers certainly need more recognition
than they have been getting, and the
government should see to it that these
faithful and very poorly paid servants
OF the people should have a substan-
tlal increase in their pay in the very
near future

The consumption of wheat in France
IS sufficient to give every man, woman

one-third pounds per day. This is
considerably larger than the per cap
tia consumption in England and that,
in turn, is at least a bushel per capita

An English writer says that soap is
the cause Of the deterioration of the
English race. He says that for thirty
years he never used any soap and that
he was perfectly free from rheuma-

Hesh is heir to. The latter aroused

war and all other topics were dropped

cal authorities and scientists and law

soap was really good for anyway.
The conclusions reached were that
while soap does not make the skin
supple it removes a lot of dirt that is
necessary at some place other than on
the human body for the preservation
of the human race.

The Cause of vice.

Vice is due chiefly to inattention; not
ignorance, but thoughtlessness. Il see
the better and approve, yet l pursue
the worse" In this case knowledge is
not absent, but defective. 1t is on the
margin instead of in the focus OF con-
seriousness. In the language of physio-
logical psychology a present appetite
presents its claims on great pillows of
nerve commotion which come rolling in
with all the tang and pungency which
is the characteristic mark of immediate
peripheral excitation. The future con-
sequences of the qualification of that
appetite, on the contrary, are represent
ed by the tiny, faint, feeble waves
which flow over from some other brain
center, excited long ago, when the con-
nection of this particular cause with its
natural effect was first experienced.
In such an unequal contest between
powerful vibrations shot swift and
straight along the tingling nerves from
the seat of immediate peripheral COM
motion and the meager, measured flow
of faded impressions whose initial We
locity and force were long since spent
what wonder that the remote effect
seems dim. vague and unreal, and that
