The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-04-30

AS a state Minnesota possesses an
advantage as to location and easy and
cheap access to markets that no other
of the great agricultural common
wealths of the Union can boast. In
Duluth she possesses practically a sea-
port; in the mighty Mississippi a great
waterway to the Gulf of Mexico and all
the world. Add to these great advan-
tages the possession of more than g.
600 miles of splendidly equipped rail-
ways, penetrating all portions of the
state and all centering in three great
an rapidly growing cities, Duluth.
Minneapolis and st. Paul. and you
have a combination of resources beyond
money value.
But while all Minnesota is advan-
tageously situated a glance at the map

always the pioneer in development, no
show, is responsible for the fact that
today in Pine county there is the finest
body of unoccupied lands near to great
markets and big cities that can be
found in the whole country. For about
one-third of the distance between st.
Paul and Duluth the soil is a sandy
loan. growing wonderful crops of po-
tatoes and vegetables and grasses, but
beyond this distance to the north is a
gently rolling country, except along
the valleys of the Kettle river, where
the soil is light, that has power to

in all the $1,000 square miles of the
North Star State there is no district so
favorably located as to markets, rail-
roads and natural advantages, such as
rivers, brooks and lakes as central east
ern Minnesota, as all that territory be-
tween st. Paul, Minneapolis and Du-
luth and Superior is known and best
described. The map shows the rail-

TAxATIoN IS ECONOMY.

am a firm believer in the PROPOSE
ton that the largest possible expendi-
ture is the -wisest possible economy,
and if we are going to arouse our
people to any appreciation of the
situation we must approach them from
that point of view. Every great
stateman has accepted the proposition
that education is the foundation OF
liberty and we must today accept the
proposition that it is the basis OF
wealth. If we approach it from the
point of view of wages we see that
wages depend upon training, and
training can best be received through
the institution that society has deyel-
oped to promote that training the
public school. And, finally, we IL
the south need TO conform our theory
of government TO our every day think
ing and practice, rejecting the propo-
sitoin that the community which gov
ems itself least governs best and sub
stituting for it the proposition that
the community is best governed that
governs itself most. That state OF
commonwealth, then, enjoys the best
government which most freely ano
literally taxes itself for support OF
IFS public schools. David L. Hous-

Mehitable Hawkins
Was richer than cream
Her riches beat cen an
Arabian dream!
She dressed up in sattins
And imported things,
And trimmed all her hats with
The choicest of wings;
She called up her footman,
And goodness alive!
How folks craved her money
When she went to drive!
She touched on butten--
The world bent the knee
She walked in the park and
The word rushed TO see;
She ate from plates golden
The rarest of foods,
And measured her habits
To cuddle her moods;
If soured on sour
She ordered up sweet,
And the wealth of the world
Was laid at her feet,
All! tell, now who could
Much happier be,

Aladdln-She?
Mehitable Hawkins
Was sixty years old
And more of temper
Than she had of gold;
She raved at her dresses
And imported things,
And swOre at her hats and
Her choice, costly wings;
Her footman, poor fellow,
Was very near dead
With freqnence of cussings
Aimed at his poor head!
She swore at the servants
Who answered her call,
And walked so bOw-legged
She'd frequently fall;
Her golden plates bored her,
The food botcheS were
Not even her habits
Would last long with her;
She soured on sour,
She soured sweet
Not the wealth Of the world
Cured the corns on her feet;
In fact, for each coin that
She threw to the wind,
She paid to the limit
In unrest of the mind.
