E. w. Durant of Saltwater read a
very interesting paper before the State
Historical society last week on ''The
Lumber Industry of the St. Croiz
Valley" The early river pilots were
indeed proud rulers of their little king.
dom. Mr.. Durant says: "Oh, the
good old times from 1852 to the fatal
September of 1857. Wages for raft
and steamboat pilots were from $500
to $500 per month, and pilots were
frequently engaged by contract for the
entire season of navigation. Those
were the days of huge gold watch
chains, of velvet on coat collars and
cuffs. When ladies visited the pilot
house the pilot donned kid gloves. The
windows of the pilot house were orna-
mented with the signatures and aid
dresses of many fair visitors. Posi-
bly, a reminiscent mood may recall
this part of our early history to the
memory Of some of the grandmothers
of the present day."

The State drainage board has Il

The State drainage board has let
contracts for the construction of
twenty-five miles of bitches in northern
Minnesota the coming year at a cost
of $4,000. The appropriation
amounts to but $4,000 a year and
many applications for drainage chan
nels in many parts of that portion OF
the State could not be granted. What
money has been expended by the State
for drainage bitches has been worth
many times the cost of the bitches.
Northern Minnesota is an empire by
itself and has thousands of acres OF
rich and productive land awaiting rec
lamation by the construction oil
bitches. It will take MANY wears tC
complete the system of bitches in that
part of the State, but all the money
that will be expended will be a very
profitable investment for the State.

The explosion on the battleship
Missouri which resulted in the loss of
thirty-two seamen and officers Of the
ship was one of the worst disasters
that ever happened to an American
battleship in times Of peace, but from
all reports the vessel and crew was
saved by the heroic action of Chief
Gunner's Mate Monson who ran into
the big powder magazine when the ex-
plosion occurred and closed the door
and at once flooded the magazine,
thus preventing a horrible catas-
trophe. The sad accident let us
hope may prevent similar disasters in
the future.

margin of the clipping he wrote these

Same here. The clipping is as fol-

Salt is necessity, sugar a luxury.
Vicious men are saltpeter: stern men

The loss of the Russian battleship

The loss of the Russian battleship
Petropvalovsk with Vice Admiral
Makaroff and crew of 598 men in the
harbor of Port Arthur was the worst
disaster to Russia since the war he
gan. The battleship was returning to
Port Arthur with the fleet after having
been out to take g few shots at the
enemy, and the great battleship struck
mine which sent the boat to the bot
tom of the sea in a few minutes. The
chances are that the willy Jap planted
the mine in the harbor while the Rus
sian fleet was out to sea, though it is
claimed that the boat struck one of the
Russian mines. The Japs have been
concentrating their naval strength on
Port Arthur and according to all re-
ports have succeeded in bottlino up
that harbor. If such is the case it will
be waiting game, that is the Rus
SLAMS will simply have to wait until
the enemy gets through with them and
quits. The Japs are now paying their
attention to VladivOstok and are
pretty apt to be doing something up
that way. The next chapter in the war
will probably be written in blood in
the valley of the Yalu. If the Rus
SLAMS should win a decisive land VIC
tory matters might take on a different
hue, but thus far the Japs are the VIC
tors and seem to be almost masters
of the situation. But the war bids
fair to last some time yet and the re-
suits cannot be foretold. In the mean
time what a seemingly unnecessary
conflict over little land and com
mercial aggrandizement.

mothers sacrifice so that foolish
daughters can hide the petticoat of
poverty under a silk dress and crowd
the space in their heads, which ought
