Editor Rockne, of the Zumbrota
News and a hustling member of the
last house Of representatives, is moth
ing if not original. He has brand
new theory on which he bases a new
found faith in the probability of a
third term for Gov. Van. SAINT. He
infers that the other candidates may
stand for Van SAINT in order to secure
two years more for personal fence
building and to head off the chances
of four-year wait that would be
showed to the front by the nomination
of some one else. His theory is inter-
esting and may be better grounded
than it appears to be. He says:
"The gubernatorial situation is as
Stunning unintelligible complications.
If Heatwole is the lucky man it means
a four years wait for Dunn and Eddy.
If either of the latter should land the
coveted nomination it means an equal
stave off for the other two, as the next
Republican governor is more than like
ly to be favored with a second term.
Everything considered, Van SAINTS
chances are quite bright for a third
term, as it means only two-year term
and in the meantime the other fellows
could fix UP their fences Dunn is not
going to assist Heatwole, and Heatwole
is not going to boost Dunn. Eddy will
pile stones in both of their paths, and
they will give Eddy's toboggan a kick
down hill every chance they get, all Of
which is in the genial governors ia
vor. There may be something to this
third-term talk, after ALL"

There are many people who are inclined to think
that even in the interest of Prof Whitney has no
business monkeying with the solar system. Once that
system is disturbed who prophesy where we would
be? Nobody knows, and Prof Whitney does not seem
to care Doubtless he is encouraged by the hope OF
making himself immortal. It's most laudabe DESIRE
but he should remember that the majority of people are
not ready to become mmorals also and there IS pos
sibity that this is what Prof Whitney's experiment
will make them.

One of the "rackets'' that has been

basis for remuneration for the next six
months. On those days tons of mat

put into the mail cars, and the carrying

operators to secure a license, the boy

CIRCUS FOLK WANT
LICENSE MONEY BACK
Accompanying the Demand With a
Hard-Luck Story.

Because of the elements which pre-
vented a morning parade and an after
noon performance the management of
the Sells-Forepaugh circus wants one
half of its license money paid the city
clerk returned.
A demand for $3.50 of the $500 paid
was made on City Clerk Redington on
Monday but the board of aldermen has
refused TO even consider the request.
The assembly is also of the same frame
of mind.
1t is possible that when the next cir
Gus tries to enter st. Paul it will have
to face a $500 license fee. The present
figure is $500, but this is often evaded
by fixing an admission fee of 20 cents
and getting in on the $3.50 figure, which
is. the rate for circuses of this class.

The Butte Miner reads a lecture
to the republican house of the leg
islature and declares that instead Of
undertaking to make an investigation
into the charge that gambling is per-
mitted in the state the house should
give itself to the task of passing leg
islation having a tendency to dis
courage the conduct of officers who
see fit to tolerate gambling and other
crimes, for a portion of the proceeds"
Why this should be demanded from a
newspaper whose party enacted the
law which the legislature has been
told is being systematically and reg
ularly violated is hard to understand.
The very law that is said to be abused
carries such provisions with it and
why another should be needed only
the Miner can tell. Beside, the law
is of democratic origin and enact
ment and consequently should be
flawless. There does not seem to be
any lack of law. The whole trouble
appears to be that it is not respected
and this is the matter that the house
intends to look into.

THEORY AND PRACTICE

Portland Telegram: Theoretically,
Senator Hoar is right in his conten-
ton that the president should not try
to influence legislation, except by
formal messages, and that there
SHOULD be no administration meas
ures,' but this theory of an entirely
distinct and segregated administra-
tive or executive department, un-
needing the acts of congress except
when a bill has been passed and is to
be signed, does not obtain in prac-
tice. Most presidents, and especially
the later ones, have brought strong
influence to bear in various ways
upon congress, in order to carry out
their policies. Cleveland did this, so
did Mckinley, so does Roosevelt, and
so will others to come. Yet it might
be well if there was a decrease, rath-
er than an increase, of direct presi-
dental influence upon congress, and
more of an adherence to the theory
of independence of each of the depart
ments of government.

A WORD TO FARM 7oILERS.
PAINE'S CELERY
COMPOUND
The Home Friend of the
Farmer and His Family.

After the labors and tolls of the summer time,
and harvesting of crops in the early autumn,
many of our farmers, their wives, daughters,
and sons, find themselves in a condition of
health demanding careful attention if suffering
is to be avoided later On. Many experience
kidney trouble in some form; with some the
liver is torpid; there is biliousness, nausea, and
vomiting, with loss of appetite and depression
of spirits. Thousands who have been exposed
to cold, damp winds and rains while toiling in
the harvest fields, now feel the twinges of
terrible rheumatism; others run down by
worry, overwork, and irregular dieting, are
tormented with the pangs of dyspepsia.
To the thousands of run down, sickly, and
half dead men and women in farm homes we
recommend with all honesty and confidence
the workers friend, Paine's Celery Compound,
the only medicine that can quickly and fully
restore strength to the weak body and vigor to
the muscles. Paine's Celery Compound tones
the stomach; it removes poisonous acids from
the blood which cause rheumatism; it feeds
the weak and diseased nerves and banishes
neuralgia fortunes; it purifes the blood and
gives true vitality and life. The use of Paine's
Celery Compound in autumn means the estab-
fishing of a perfect physical vigor to Withstand
the rigors OF a severe winter.

The Portland, Ore, Telegram is one
of the few honest democratic newspa.
pers and shows it's honesty in discuss
ing the tariff and the proposition of
it's party leaders to make the tariff
the next issue. 1t takes the United
States Steel corporation as the text
for an article showing the workings of
the present tariff and declares that
the corporation at present receives
from the government no less than
$S0,000,0 900 annually in the way of
aid, made possible by the operation
of the tariff laws. But toward the
end of it's screed it says: ut is true
that the wages Of the many thousands
of workmen employed by this corpora
ton are to be considered, and that
some duty on competing imports is
necessary, or advisable" This is the
republican argument, always, and the
acknowledgment of it's correctness by
SO able and thoroughly democratic
newspaper as the Telegram comes as
a welcome surprise to the republi-
cans.

REMEDY OR ABOLISH.

Great Falls Tribune: 1t apears like
ly that no action will be taken by the
legislature toward giving the state
board of equalization more power to
equalize. At present it has practi-
cally no power in that direction, and
the legislature apears to favor leav-
ing it in that condition.
If the legislature desires to be O
sistent in this action, it should now
go ahead and abolish the state board
altogether. With it's present power
it is merely a body for the assess
ment of the railways running through
the state. If other property is assess
ed unequally among the several
ties, it must remain so under the pres
ent conditions. The board of equali-
cation has no power to make changes.
In fact, it is not a board of equaliza-
ton at all.
In his message to the legislature the
governor called attention to some
marked inequalities in assessment
between the various counties, and, Of
course, the property owners in those
counties which were rated high suf-
fered in consequence, so far as the
state tax is concerned. They had to
pay 2k mills ON their assessment,
just as the others had to pay 2R mills
on their lower assessment.
That there should be some power
to equalize the assessment among the
various counties is too apparent to
need argument, and the only possible
power is a state board. The courts
have taken that power away from the
state board of equalization because
of a constitutional flaw. The legisla-
ture refuses to remedy the flaw.
