The weekly crop bulletin Of the weather
bureau, Minnesota section, says:
In the extreme southeastern counties of the
state the aims Of the previous week continued
till the 14th; elsewhere there was dry weather
till the 18TH when light rains began in the south
western part OF the state, becoming general dur
ing the day. except In the Red river valley. The
mornings were cool till the 18th, with freezing
were moderate Except in the southeast, where
the early part Of the week was wet, the
work and the seeding of wheat was general till
'the 18th, though work was hindered somewhat in
the early mornings by frozen surface soil. Con-
siderable oats and barley have also been seeded.
Most OF the sedeng has been done on the high
and light lands as the heavy soils and fiat lands
are still wet. In a few places in the south
west the early sown wheat. oats and barley are
beginning to come up. Clover, winter rye and
wheat and small fruits seem to have passed thru
the winter well. The pastures are becoming
green but the amount of nourishment afforded
by them is still small.

have the call in the Rose Hill English

week. Rice and Barton, managers, have
fully sustained their reputation for pro-
vding the best in the line of entertain
ment to which they cater, and the result
is that no cleverer aggregation OF come
dians and song birds has got together at
that playhouse this season. The musical
program is full Of catchy numbers, and
such old-time chestnuts as are dragged
in for, parody purposes are not over
worked. Hoary- headed s'gags" have given
place to some fine young jokes which
sparkle continuously thru the perfor-
nance.
The first part, 'The Baby Trust" is
well labeled "a laughing musical comedy

work Of the clever comedian ~. F.

Work, not words, count The little egotist wanders about in a maudlin manner, and in hotels, restaurants and saloons magnifies something which he does not pos sess-ability, which, incongruous as it may appear, he eternally magnifies while he attempts to minify that of his competitors. The result is inevitable. They see the necessity of effort he doesn't. They move while he talks of "inf1u- ence" and of greatness. They beat him in the race, and the by- islanders are treated to the incon- gruous spectacle of a man puffed up without anything to be puffed up about.

talk of wireless teegraphy for Alaska station was erected at Fort Gbbon, from which it was intended to flash" messages to Bates Rapids the Tanana. The Fort Gibbon station completed, and there the work to have ended in that locality. Late last summer work begun wireless stations at Port Safety and St. Michael The former station, it is understood, is in working order, but for the St. Michael end, judging by the lack of tangible results it is either in an incomplete condition the system which the government proposed to establish is a failure At any rate the best that is claimed for it is that it is in "the nature of an experiment."
 It is, we repeat, high time that the government was done with experimenting in Alaska. It is we'll to experiment but let the experimenting be carried out in some locality where hardship will not be worked upon the people. Had the government ex- pended the money necessary to erect wireless stations, supply machinery, apparatus etc. in building land line between Port Safety and Unalaklik, the people of Nome today would be in telegraphic communca- ton with the outside world.
 But it is the victims of governmental experiments and the grossest kind of blunderng.

A LESSON OF THE SANDS.

There is lesson in the discovery of beach dgg- ings' in the tundra in the region between Cunning ham and Derby creeks, and Cape Nome, along the eastern coast. The lesson, however, may not teach that all the tundra stretches that skirt the coast of Boring contain god but it certainly points the fact that extensive gold deposits are contained there in in some localities
 The richest beach diggings ever found were those which extended short distance east and west of where Nome stands, and limited at Topkok or Bluff City But they ex- hausted. The tundra, however, which in the more or less remote past, Boring once ebbed and flowed, has been thoroughly prospected. It has been demonstrated that in the vicinity of Peluk creek, back in the tundra the typical beach diggings' ex- ist But speaking. bye and large, tundra prospect ing has scarce been attempted. few holes have been "punched" here and there, but nothing which resembles real work has been done Now it has been found that for three four miles along the eastern coast, half mile so from the sea- the same ruby and gray and black sand exist as found by the men of 1899, who worked their rockers the beach, made Nome famous and increased their own wealth. The gold found in the locality mentioned is identical with that found in the present beach sands, and it simply goes to show that day other the waves of Boring lapped shore line, a part of the tundra plains. Whence came this beach gold is a mooted question. Many theories advanced, more or less of which may be correct, and will not dis cuss them at this time. Suffice it to say that in opinion the tundra plains which border Boring sea offer inviting field to the prospector and in the not distant future this sesame tundra will prove wonderful gold producer.

THE DAY OF THANKSGIVING.

Tomorrow will be day of thanksgiving in this country of It has come to be sort of national holiday throughout the length and breadth of this great, big land.
 It is a day when those who really devout- and, thank heaven, there some that still are will observe the day did our forefahers-in thanksgiving for mercies bestowed and in prayer for the continuance of the blessings of health peace and prosperity.
 To the founders of this nation the day of real meaning, but it has lost much of its former sig nfcance The custom of observing day of thanks giving originated in New England shortly after the Pilgrim Fathers found anchorage on stern and rock-bound coast" The pioneers of New England literally carried their lives in their hands. While they worked in the field, at the forge, elled the forest, attended divine worship discharged their daily avocations in life their trustv rifles at hand-ready for onslaught of their bitterest foes, the Indians. Their harvests often failed them, and sickness and death terrorized them much more than did the raids of bloodthirsty savages. Hence the day of thanksgiving, when their settlements had been freed from severe ncursons of the enemy and when the harvest had been bountfu
 They devout people in those old days. They worshiped Astaroth blindly impious idols of Baal They of simple faith and be- lieved in God and the Bible They were wild zealots, bigoted selfassertve, religious partisans with their ideas of church and state government, for which they always ready to do or die, but they were the seed of the nation" God" says Longfeow "had sifted the seed of three nations for the wheat for this planting"
 Therefore is it that Thanksgiving day in the United States is of sacred memories and cher ished traditions With the conoclastic spirit of the centuries which have elapsed, the day has practically lost its religious meaning, and the mores the pity It does no harm whether Christian pagan, to re- turn thanks once and while to the great omnipo tent power of the universe, no matter by what name it be called
 Thanksgiving day. however, has in the process O the come to be rather day for the interchang ing of sociabties for pleasure for feasting and en oyment. And we want to be understood saying that not finding fault with the change Lei it be day of rejoicing, of friend claspng the hanc of friend of good cheer of social amenities, for in all these is the element of thanksgiving embodied.

MAKING A PROBLEM COMPLEX.

Boston is noted for its production of crank the ories The people there supposed to be extra ordinarily intellectual but their mental processes are hampered by environment and tradition. Think ing is habit with them. lunatic thinks. And most men think that they think. A man with de- lirum tremens thinks, and herein is the source of his menagere of snakes It is necessary to think sanely as to think at all
 Most of the crankiness of Boston has been dis played by its white people, but the colored people seem to have caught the spirit and have placed themselves on record as asses. Recently in series of resolutions they denounced Booker T. Washing ton. They declared that he is not fit leader, and they did this by reason of the very qualities that constitute him not only fit leader of his people, but la man of great stature in his generation. It is a poor compliment to say that Mr. Washington is a great man, because this does not say enough His race should be proud of him, and far it falls short in this respect it shows itself and not Booker T. Washington, to be unworthy.
 The fault found with the colored educator is that he admits there exists difference between the whites and the blacks that he knows people but few removes from savagery, and their training in civliza- tion that accorded by condition of slavery, cannot be competent to take their places plane with the advanced The difficulty is not in the color of their skins. It is in the inborn characteristics that pany this color. The negro has not had chance to develop. few have risen far above their fellows and demonstrated the possibilities. The demand that all be regarded fully qualified civily and socially for common place in the ranks is absurd Mr. Washington does not make it, and therefore he is repudated. He wants his people to learn, and not to assume that they have already learned They resent this, and by doing show that Washington is right. The educated negro of Boston forgets that the negro of the South is swarmng in ignorance and that he has neither culture nor, in this stage of his progress, the basic traits upon which to build char acter. The must be uplifted by degrees. It cannot be uplifted by Boston fiat. If it believes that it has been sufficiently upfted, its is hope less. Only by stimulating the ambition of the negro

The city council has ordered an- other warrant call for $7,5OO, and disposition is evident, according to the report of the proceedings of the city council at its last meeting, to criticise Judge Moore because he would not hand over to the council a larger proportion of the license moneys. However, if we judge alright the sentiment of the community, Judge Moore made nc mistake when he refused to give the city council more than fifty five per cent of the amount.

Is there prospect of making valu- able citizen out of him. Instill into him the notion that he is full tiedged, competent, equal, and there is no future for him. This, of course. does not refer to the in dividual, and especially not to the negro type with which the North is familiar. The Boston negroes have made the problem more complex. They have discouraged the friends who have cherished great hopes for the race.
 A measure has been introduced in the Georgia legislature to deprive some colored schools of state sup port. This is a blow aimed at Tuskegee institute. It might be called race murder, as the Boston idea is new form of race suicide. Then in Louisiana there has been slain negro educator who seems to have talked too much and given some bad advice. There could be no justification for the crime. It cannot result in anything but harm. Each of these disturbing incidents, whether a mass meeting, legislative assault or an ambush, adds difficulty to problem already a puzzle to the wisest thinkers.
