Look Out for Him.

A smooth tongued individual, with
a slightly foreign accent. has been
canvassing for the Library of China"
in several of the cities of northern
Minnesota with considerable success.
He is headed this way. The work
consists Of ten volumes, which the
agreeable stranger states he is giving
away. as he lis merely an advance
agent to be followed by a corps of
agents. and the company wishes to
place set of the works in the homes
of some of the best people merely as
an advertisement. The only condi-
tion attached to the gift was that as
the books were manufactured in China
the recipient will pay the duty. The
tariff is S25. The same books are said
to be retailed generally at from 81 to
$8.-Times.

MINING MATTERS.
A Few News Items, Borrowed,
Stolen and Otherwise Secured.

= The Tower News in speaking Of the
midtown at Minnesota last week had
the following to say among other
things:
"Probably not more than twenty
five men are working at the mine to-
day and they are engaged in picking
up and storing material which has
been in use, This force will be reduc-
ed to about twelve men by Monday
and that number will be kept on all
winter to keep the mine pumped out
and look after the company's property.
cat meeting held in the Finn hall
yesterday forenoon Capt. Pengilly al
dressed the miners and expressed his
sorrow at the condition of affairs and
stated that those who had families
to support would be given employ
ment at the Chandler mine at Ely if
they so desired and that anyone occu-
plying company houses could remain
without fear of being turned out.
Also that the men were welcome to
cut all the wood needed for their win
ter fuel on company land so long as
the larger timber suitable for mining
purposes was not destroyed.
"Mr. Pengilly states. however, that
the majority of the men having famil-
les at Soudan have saved up enough
money to carry them through several
months without working and that
very few of them are taking advan-
tage Of his offer to go to Ely. Large
crowds of single men are leaving every
day, many of them going back to
Europe"

Der agents were appointed by the reg
lister of the district, were accountable
to that officer and were paid by the
receiver. Gradually all this has chang
ed. The general land office has con-
tinually trenched upon the authority
of the local officers and the depart
ment has continually trenched upon
the authority and jurisdiction of the
general land office until the change
amounts to a reyolution. Formerly
filing on land and the final proof un-
der the presumption and homestead
laws were simple matters. No adver-
Using was necessary-no attorney
was necessary. No long lists of ques-
tions were asked. The only thing to
do was to file and when the time came
to make final proof, the settler signed
and swore to mera eXparte atfidayits
not'so long as the filing af1idaVts to-
day. Yet men were just as honest in
those old days as now.
In the days of Webster, Clay, Ben
ton. Douglas and Seward, and later,
of Grow 1.-THE father of the homestead
law, the theory was that the public
lands should be given to the people at
the least possible cost; out since the
days of Pomeroy the prevailing theory
seems to have been the thrifty one, of
how much can the government make
by buying lands from the Indian at
twenty-five cents an acre and selling
it to the poor white man at $3.50 an
acre with all the costs and fees added.
large majority of the persons i'll
ing on homesteads have also taken
timber claims for the purpose of pro-
curing from the sale of their timber
the means to so improve their home
steads as to make them self-support-
ing.
To repeal this act and then add in
suit to injury by forbidding the home
steader to buy his homestead after
fourteen months residence. is to rem
der it almost impossible for a poor
man to hold a homestead in the forests
of northern Minnesota. This is just
what the large scrip holders want.
The bill to repeal these laws should
be properly entitled an act to enhance
the price of all the scrip now held and
hereafter to be acquired by the land
grant railroads.
Col. Graves says: "The same views
expressed by Mr.. Smith were present.
ed by all attorneys, senators and con-
grcssmen, but all from districts known
to be the location of immense cattle
'fancnes or Tn0tfsdfus Or acres each,
owned by great corporations and syn
dicateS."
Let me suggest, that is exactly why
these districts stand with the people
of northern Minnesota against the re-
peal of these laws. They are the laws
of the people-people who have felt
the heavy heels of these great land
corporations and syndicates. Hence
misrepresentation are for preserving
these last and only remaining laws
which can save the public lands from
corporation greed.
The repeal of these laws would rem
der it so difficult to hold homestead
that the business of land attorneys
would soon double, as the best of the
land practice comes from contests
against hOmesteadS.

ore and it is said that one company
alone has 10000 tons of ore on the
docks at Cleveland and that is not
yet sold. Pig iron has been 60
ing down at the average rate of about
a dollar a month for more than six
months and this has caused the shut
ting down of some of the eastern
furnaces. Labor troubles in some of
the big plants have also had little
to do with the ore remaining in the
piles at the furnaces and general
market conditions have had good
deal to do with it all. AS next year
is presidential year and the country
will be in a hubub of politics, it is
hardly to be expected that there will
be very large change in the con-
ditions which have brought about
the present situation. 1t is the
general opinion, however, of those
who stand in a position to look fur
Their into the future than others,
that there will be a marked improve
ment in the affairs in the east before
the opening of spring.

Mass in a Methodist Church.

Killeen is a small town in Texas, not
great distance from Temple, to which
it is attached as a mission. Though
the Catholic population of the place is
comprised of but three Catholic faml-
lies. they are not neglected. For Father
Hickman of Temple visits them at
stated intervals on week days and adj
ministers to their spiritual wants Oct.
%, however, was the first time mass
was ever celebrated on Sunday.
Many Catholics have expressed a
desire to attend the services. Too many
in fact to be accommodated in a private
house. Learning of these conditions
the members of the German Methodist
congregation kindly offered their church
in which to hold the services.
The offer was accepted. A temporary
altar was erected and the holy sacrifice
of the mass offered up on the same. The
sermon was delivered from the church
pulpit The church was crowded with
non Catholics who were deeply inter
ested and listened with closest atten-
ton to the sermon, which was an eX-
PLANTATION of the ceremonies.

The Protestant religion when not

indeed. we need use such worldly

ministers lecture on religious subjects

and were he to offer his services, they
would be refused. Under one preteNt
or other the officials of the institutions
deny in many cases TO Catholic inmates
all religious freedom, and openly cause
them TO violate their consciences. Many
of the teachers show habitually bit
