Secretary of State Hanson and Treas
urer Block would be wondering, after
it was all over, who rocked the boat.
Memphis News: Those negroes who
resoluted against Booker Washington
the other day oppose his plan of teach
ing the members of his race to work.
The negro idea of education is that it
is something that will enable a negro
to live without labor.
Faribault journal: Not only is fence
advertising expensive but it has this
disadvantage, the matter cannot be
changed as it can be in a newspaper
and the ghosts of firms that have long
gone to the shades continue to appeal
to the passer-by for patronage. y
Leroy independents: Somehow it
always turns ont that it pays best to
stand by your fellow-townsmen. The
busting up of two pirate creaMeries
lately ought to bring people down onto
the earth and convince them that there
isn't anything in it to be forever chs s.
ing after false goods.
Albert Lea Times: Mrs. Fred II.
Hall arrived here Monday from Austin
and is a guest at the home of G. A.
! Briggs. Mrs. Hall will remain here some
time attending to some business mat

home at Mohall, N. D.
Pennington Tribune: The rural
mail delivery is more NJ led than fire..
quent city deliveries; 1t would be
better to cut down in tt 9 large cities on

delivery routes and raising the pay OF
the regular carriers till it is in a fail
ratio with the salaries paid letter carri
ers in the large cities.
St. Peter Herald: Too many of III

The man with a moderate income lives
as we'll as his rich neighbor. He enter
tains as much and the style of one il
aped by the other. And when thu
weather and the times tighten tn,
grasp, we lay it to hard times. Tht
man who got fifty cents day in 1885,
and had to pay $4.75 a cwt. for hou
knew what real hard times were.
i Rochester Post and Record: For tn
work that they do the pay of count,
commissioners is too small. They hav
the finances of the county to, looI
after, the roads to attend to, the poo
to visit, and much else that takes tim
that is valuable to- them. In thi
/ county the commissioners are except
: ionally capable men, and the county af
fairs were never better administered
The legislature should provide for ade
quate recompense for the services o
: such officers.
What sad picture it is for parent

daughters and sons married and the
