SHARK AS A MESSENGER.
Carried Newspaper to Sydney Outdis-
tancing Steamer Conveying I'M
portant Item Of News.

The story of the discovery of
human bones and bangles in the
interior Of The crocodile captured
at Fort johnson, Rhodesia,
brings to mind another story
which may appositely be recalled
at the present juncture. Every
body has heard of Mrs. Macquar-
rie's CHAIR" as they call the east
ern point of Farm Cove, in Sydney
harbor. There, says the st.
James Gazette, it was that poor
emigrant, in pre-cable days, killed
and towed ashore a shark, cut him
up, and found London neWspa-
per in the Intervals. In the paper
was the announcement of the war
between France and Germany.
The shark had outdistanced th.,
steamer by which the mail was
coming, and here the discovercr
had the fact to himself. lie gave
his information to a wealthy wool
dealer, who bought all the sea-
sons clip at Cd. per pound, AMI
sold at IS. after the news of the
war had arrived by the ordinary
channel. He cleared, it is said,
four millions s sterling by the deal.
The man who killed the shark and
extracted the news Of price-well,
he received a battered silk hat
and five shilling piece and unre-
strained liberty as to the disposal
of the shark.

There ought to be a sympathetic
union of frontier counties in tho agita-
ton for Legislative relief from the une.
quail burdens they are made to bear.
State aid in road building Is one of the
we'll deserved privileges denied us.
Then, too, unde6nabls tax laws turn
astray some taxes that belong to us, and
which would help some. The infant
industries OF these northern counties,
road building for example, are not be-
ing given due encouragement. Worse
than that, these counties are not being
given their own.
Now that election will soon be over
and we'll know who's who, let us back
woods editors begin campaign of agi-
tation and keep it up. Agitate! Agi-
tate!! Agitate!!! We may thus be
able to awaken the couse1ences OF
some good legislators and have our de-
mands given a respectful hearing. At
least We can lose nothing, and by giving
one such concerted howl we may remind
those lawmakers before they gather in
St. Paul next winter that We are a part
Of Minnesota and that We think we're
somebody. Lets try it.

During the campaign now coming to
u close tho Herald has kept out of the
political puddle. Not because the editor
of this paper is or ever was timid about
expressing his political preferences.
But though he is resident here and
feels deep interest in the county's
affairs he is not yet what you would call
an old citizen. 1t might, therefore, be
considered presumptuous for him to use
the paper az his mouthpiece to try to
boost into Office the candidates of his
choice.
Though there are certain features of
this campaign in which the editor quite
naturally feels especially interested, in a
spirit of fair play tho Herald has held
It's peace. Being the only paper In the
county 1T feels less at liberty to take
sides in local political contest than if
those whom it might oppose had the
advantage of a medium through which
they could talk back. Nearly all
the candidates are we'll known person
ally to the voters of the county, who
very likely have fixed opinions as to the
respective merit of their claims for cleo
ton to or retention IN Office. Therefore,
the verdict to be rendered at the polls
next Tuesday ought to be very Salts
ia Glory one. At any rate, the Herald
doesn't sec wherein it could have
improved the situation by taking an
active part IN the campaign.
" There are better ways for the local pa
per to advance the material interests OF
the county than by acting as the mouth
piece or 'oraan" for persons or cliques
The coming year promises to outshine
the encouraging record of the past year
in local progress. Public officials can
do much towards making it SO, and no
matter who is elected the Herald will
not be found placing any obstacles in
the way of their efforts towards sue
cessful administration OF the county's
affairs. On the contrary it will deem it
q pleasant duty to heartily cooperate
with them always in all that is for the
county's good.
