What the Editors Say

Every editor has received the third
notice, says the Western Publisher.
The postmaster sends them to the ed
itor. The postmaster is not TO blame.
For instance, there is a man by the
name of--well say Tim Short-who
sent us three notices to stop his pa
per. He did not want it any longer.
We wondered what was the matter.
Upon Investigating our subscription
book we found that Tim was short
$3.50. He never paid a cent and yet he
stopped his paper, as a matter of econ
Only to us. A few evenings ago we
stepped into a church and Tins melo-
diOus voice rang out loud and clear in
the old soul-stirring song, Jesus paid
it aH.' We might have been mistaken,
but his earnestness impressed us. The
next day we sent him a receipt in full,
begging his pardon fer not knowing
that he had made an assignment of his
liabilities to the Lord.-Moarhead In

Collins opened up headquarters at
the Nicollet to meet and greet the flood
OF delegates that went down to the
convention and Sunny Jim was there
to do the smiling act, as the judge has
lost much of his ability to look pleasant
$50 long has he been interested with
the complex duties of justice that he
has forgotten the mirthful side Of ex-
1Stence to great extent. Several
4steered the delegates into the pres
ence of the judge to be jollied as he
deemed expedfent and when he hands
down his decision as to the result after
the state convention we will all know
how successful he was in winning
support on this occasion. Mr.. Dunn
was not in city OF state, SO did not
participate in the hilarity, but his
friends were there.-Granite Falls
Tribune.
A man may advance in the world
despite his name. Gjermund Gjer-
mundson has just been appointed
rural mail carrier at Elbow Lake.

Certainly he may. Didn't Grover
Cleveland while president appoint Dink
Bolts to a prominent position in
Georgia. Haven't we a Pennypacker
as governor of Pennsylvania and a
Crumpacker as congressman from M
diana Other congressman now In Of
flee have such euphonious names as
Hogg, Hit, Snapp, Mudd, Loud and
Pou, to say nothing of eight Smiths in
the present house. The member from
Hawaii is named Jonah Kuhio Kalan-
ianaole. Anything will do fer a handle.

Congressman Bede is winning the
gratitude of his constituents in the
Rafnly River district 10y the hard fight
he is making against the corner on
state swamp and the Hartley Richards
combination in their effort to boom
Cass Lake townsite by stealing the
best portion of the Duluth land district.
Bede always was popular along the
border and If he should succeed in
thwarting the scheme of the Cass Lake
Hand grabbers he would be hero in
the eyes of many poor settler whose
pocketboek would be pilfered by the
consummate knaves. = Koochiching

The shameful bargain entered into
by the Republican party whereby Utah
cast its electoral vote for Mckinley
and made Reed Snoet United States
senator, has come back to plague them.
1t was a shameless and corrupt deal
and many decent Republican hangs
