THE PROPER DUES ZION.

The Princeton Union insists that
Judge Collins will not do for a
gubernational candidate because he
lives in the sixth district and Sena-
tor Nelson lives there also. This
is about as good a reason as some of
the editors of the state offer for
supporting Mr.. Dunn ssbecause he is
newspaper man." Be it said to the
credit of the republican party that
they never have tried to arrange their
ticket according to the boundaries
of congressional districts. The Vo-
ter who has the welfare of the state
and nation at heart will ask about a
candidate: awhat kind of man is
he, what does he stand for and
what will he do?'' not sswhere was
he born, where does he live and
what is his occupation?" Besides
Judge Collins does not live in the
sixth district. His ssoficiaI resi-
dence, whatever that may mean, il

purposes he lives in Minneapolis
At least he stays, lives, eats ane

The True Patronyn1ic of the Great

In the review Of Mr. Millar's Litter
airy History of Scotland in the Spec
tator of Sept. II the writer says:
'.The father of Burns spelt his name,
not Burns or 'Burness, but
tBurnes.' -
There is, think, ample evidence to
the contrary, as appears from the fol-
lowing facts: When certain Walter
Campbell moved from Argyllshire to
Glenberyle in the Mearns (Kincar-
dinshiret early in the seventeenth CEN
fury he assumed the name OF Burn
house or Burmese. From him the
fourth in descent was William Bur-
ness, the father of the poet.
The family Bible records the mar
riage of-"William Burmese and Agnes
Brown" in 1857, and 1 myself copied
the name of civilian Burmese" from
the old grayestone in Alloway kirk
yard more than forty years ago, which
has since been replaced by new one.
The poet always signed himself
Robert Buvness" in his letters for
about two years after his fathers
death in 1884 the last extant letter
with that signature being one adj

After this date he appears to have
adopted the spelling with which we

Preserving Cork Trees.

So much cork-is now used in the
manufacture of linoleum and in ship
building that the protection of cork
trees has become matter Of. prime
importance. Italy is taking. steps to
this end in Sicily and Sardinia, where
there are large cork forests, those OF
Calabra having been nearly destroyed
in the making Of charcoal. It is said
that Spain is showing like interest
in protecting these trees, as the man
ufacture of corks is a large industry
there. Only a few years ago the ex,
portation of wine bottle corks from
that country amounted to about S..
600 900 annually.

PLATFORMS AND CANDIDATES

1t seems strange that the edi-

on and about candidates for the var
ious state offices and nothing what

principles that should be promul-
gated by the convention.
There is an abundance of excel
lent material in the state for Off
cials. There are men in every
county that would fill the execu-
tive chair with credit to themselves

lawyers in every town that would

The only way that the people car

TO THE HERALD

The last number of the ii era1d
was of unusual interest, as it al.
ways is, because of two things =
the farewell words of former editor
Hendryx, and the graceful bow OF.
the new editor. 1t is one OF the
things to be expected that every
man shall some day lay aside his
work-none the less it is always sad
when it occurs. An editor is 4 in
some ways peculiar in his relations
to other people. He is at once
their mouthpiece, and yet he is
more-for in large measure he
teaches them what he wishes them
to say. The paper that comes to
the home regularly, year after year,
exercises a silent but patent infiu-
ence upon etd and young-makes a
place in the texture of their thought
and feeling, and without being con-
.scious oft, they think his thoughts
after him. So in this way Mr..
Hendryx has created a host Of
thinkers w ho-wiiH miss his style Of
language and thought. It is a
pleasure to remember that he did
not lay aside his work because of
infrmities of age, but for other and
good reasons; all his old friends
wish him abundant success and
many years in which to enjoy it.
The other matter of interest is
the salutatory of the new editor:
short, crisp, breezy and not word
too many. "Well done" we say at
once. We like the first sample and
expect more like it. But, Mr.. Ed.
itor, are you familiar with that
matchless Bible story of Estheri

has to do with several things il
