OTHER EDITORS OPINIONS
West Concord Enterprise: If the
people want to eliminate the pass evil
from politics, let them elect just two
classes, editors and railroad attorneys.
Editors cannot be bought and railroad
attorneys are already bought.
Fulda Republican,: When a man ap.
plies for license to run a steamboat
he has to prove he is competent to
manage her. 1t might be a good thing
for the country if he had to do the same
thing when he applies for license to
marry woman.
St. Ansgar Enterprise: Clyde Hub
bard, at one time the clerk at the St.
Ansgar depot, was married Dec. g, to
Miss Eva Kearney, who was the primary
teacher at Otranto three years ago.
They will reside at Austin, where he
has a position as brakeman on the G.
NJ. & st. P. R'y.
Mount Morris Oily News: A Forres-
ton telephone operator took her false
teeth out and laid them on the center
table one night, recently, when her
brother, to play joke on her, substituted
horse shoe in place of them. She wore
the horse shoe all the forenoon, dis
covering the change by the wide cash
the toe calk made when she bit biscuit.
Chicago Interocean: Chicago people
know DR.. Herrick johnson. They
know how he preached and taught, and
when he says that more souls are not
saved by preaching now because
preachers do not preach the W ord; that
preaching is not effective because it is
n 1T designed and adapted to bring men
TO Christ and to make them like Christ
after they have beer Won to him, they
will feel that the pulpit must answer.
Waseca Radical: Charles and D. A.
Wyman and their families were down
from Minneapolis to spend New Years
day at the parental home. We &C.
knowledge a pleasant call from both
gentlemen. The former is engaged in
the hardware business, and the latter is
one of the proprietors of the Austin
Foundry Co., now located at 4Minnea-
polls. We are pleased to learn that
both are meeting with good success.
st. Peter Herald: The patients at
the St. Peter state hospital are not in
clined to thank the board of control
for their game dinner Christmas day.
Con6scated duck do not, like wine,
improve with age, and patients at the
hospital are not accustomed to "high
game effects. In other words, the
ducks were picked too soon, kept too
long and served too late. The sensitive
l,tn of ho cio1% of tho fa
not tickled by the morsel.
Albert Lea Tribune: The Tribune
hears rumor that Armour or some
other of the big packers are to establish
slaughter house for the killing of beef
cattle in Austin at an early day, but
the report may only be a rumor. 1t is
strange they would not come here in
stead, but then it will be all the better
for Austin. The time must come when
cattle will be slaughtered nearer the
point at which they are raised and con-
sumed, thus cutting out a large item of
expense.
Dairy Record: The test of sample
taken from single can of milk OF
from single milking cannot be com.
pared with the test of a composite
sample taken from the milk for a
whole month and farmers should un'
derstand that there is no comparison
between the two tests. We do not
believe that buttermaker is doing the
fair and square thing when he tests
samples of milk brought him by
patrons of competing creameries. How
does he know that the sample brought
him is taken as it should be taken?
Preston Times: The old Fillmore
County Bank steal is again destined tt
become prominent in our midst, the
chief robber, J. Il. Clements, having
| filed an application with the board Of
pardons to be released from the peni
tentiary. Clements has only served
time since June, 1900, and it is in keep
ing with his brazen impudence that b,
should thus early seek Communication
OF his ten-years sentence, which is al
too short even were he compelled t,
serve it out to the last day and hour
1t does not seem possible that the par
doning board should consider his ap
plication for a minute.
Sauk Centre Avalanche: The hand
bill system of advertising costs NOR
for the results attained than any othe
system. The cost of 1000 posters viii
range from $3.50 to $500, according t.
the amount Of composition and tn
size: The poster generally finds it's wa
to the rear door of a, residence or tn
bottom Of a sleigh box. It is tn
servant girls delight, but the lady q
the housewife does the buying -seldo1
sees it and if she does, gives it littl
consideration. Two dollars spent for
twenty-inch space in the local pape
would bring the same substance int
more than one thousand homes -brin
it into the front door and place itsupo
the family reading table at one.half th
price paid for the poster. ....I DID. 81.
Minneapolis Journal: The la,

man before it takes his revolver ava,
There is law against carrying a gu
