an island in the lake containing about

there have been a number of claimants

There is story in circulation in St.
Paul to the effect that Gov. johnson
had ex-Goy. Van SAINT slated for the
position of head-janitor of the new
capitol. But the legislature thwarted
Gov. Johnson's plans by passing the
Horton bill Notwithstanding his veto.
Gov. Johnson has complete control of
the old capitol building. Van SAINT
wants any old Office. He would not
refuse anything that was offered him.
Why not make him janitor of the old
capitol building? In the course of
time he might learn to perform the
duties of the position in semi-intel-
ligent manner. ...%

Prof. John Bates Clark, professor
of political economy at Columbia COL
lege, made the following statement the
other day in AN interview in Mime
apolis:
ION general principles, I will say
that the senate of the United States
will resist any really efficient effort
for curbing the power of corpora
tons. In other words, the senate
will defeat any legislation in regard
to trusts that is really effective"
Prof. Bates says we are drifting
into a phase of government in which
State action in the control of corpor-
atoms is an important department,
but this governmental policy cannot
be termed socialism. He says: :.
"Many persons loosely define any
increase of governmental action in
the field of industry as socialism, but
that is great confusion of thought.
II it were true, we would have to
reconcile ourselves to an immense
amount of socialism hereafter.
"Our State will certainly do some
things for the purpose of saving itself
the necessity of doing many more
things. It will be i regulator OF bust
ness in order to save itself from be-
coming an owner and manager. That
is the real issue. sFhezs State will find
itself again and again called upon to
choose between these two things.''

The independent oil dealers of Mil

The independent oil dealers of Min
nesota are seeking to secure a freight
rate that will enable them to compete
with the Standard Oil robbers in SELL
ing kerosene and gasolene through
out the State. They have made ap-
plication to the railroad and ware
house commission of Minnesota to
compel the railroads to make a show
down in the matter. It is estimated
that there are 27,5O0, 900: gallons of
gasolene and kerosene consumed in
Minnesota annually. A variation of
one cent a gallon amounts to 1915, 600.
It can readily be seen how easy it is
for the Standard Oil robbers to make
a few extra pennies when the old man

wealth to. educate the heather.

LIMBS PET MEASURE.

The Senate Defeated the Schemes Of the
Land-Grabhers and Timber Thieves.
The national senate. did one partic-
ularly good thing at the last session.
It defeated the bills passed. by the
house raising the limit of homesteads,
or free cessions of land, in Colorado
and South Dakota, from 100 acres to
$40 acres. These bills were railroaded
through the house in spite of the OPP
position of the best people in the states
concerned, and the returns of rejoic-
ing at their defeat in the senate are
now coming in from the west.
1t is an encouraging sign that a
leading Montana paper, the Ana
conda Standard is able to saw
that "a truer craftsmanship would
reduce the present 16O-acre homestead
grant by half, instead of multiplying
it by four. :" A "homestead'' mile
square is certainly an anomaly.
The argument that the land con-
cerned is semi-arid, and that 100 acres
OF it will not support family, may
be reasonable as applied to present
conditions of agriculture in the Sec
ton affected, but it does not apply to
future methods either of grazing or
farming. It would give away great
deal OF rich land which is sure to be
irrigated some day, by wells or UNDER
ground. veins of water, even if it is
beyond the reach of irrigation by
means OF surface streams and dams,

Three years passed away. and in the

Three years passed away. and in the
large room Of Deacon Newcombe's
house a little company was gathered.
Of children and grandchildren. All who
had once met daily around the good
deacon's FIRE were there save one, and
that one Louisa. The faces Of all were
saddened as the mother, looking around
upon the group. spoke her name. No
one could tell to what depth of misery
she might have sunk ere this. In all
these three years they had had no It'd
ings of her. They had written, but
their letters were never answered.
Once one of the brothers had visited
the city and called at the house where
the first two years Of her married life
were spent, but new tenants peopled 1t
and the name Of Lenoir was unknown
to them.
They gathered around the we'll
spread table, young and old.
1T is Ave years tomorrow since
Louisa was married. 7 wonder IL she
remembers the promise made her"
said the deacon, staring hard at his
plate; and the mother answered.:
Poor child! II she does, it will only
add to her sorrow"
There was the noise of wheels out
side, the sound of footsteps on the
porch; then the knocker sounded, and
in moment, Louisa, radiant with
health and happiness, entered the
room, leading by the, hand bright
eyed boy. Her husband-not the blear-
eyed. besotted creature they had looked
upon three years before, but noble and
manly-looking-a man whom the good
deacon and his stalwart sons felt they
could grasp by the hand-followed in a
few moments.
Later in the evening. when a vast
amount of kissing and smiling through
tears had been gone through with,
Louisa led her little boy to the deacon's
side.

thought l should die for shame! And

And Mr.. and Mrs. Lenoir had their
silver wedding after all, as the old man
persisted in calling 1t, and many and
costly were the presents showered upon
Louisa. who, in her new happiness,
looked as blooming as a newly made
bride; but the gift she most priced
was in the shape of n promise, that
night renewed, by her husband, never

GLOVE PRUNING.

A good deal Of time and energy may
be saved both ON the part Of tree and

and the surplus sprouts removed. tits
also good plan to examine the old
trees and take Off the water sprouts
while small. This work should be
looked after several times during the
growing season. Dormant buds, where
budding was done last season. should
also have attention now; the stock
should have been cut of above the bud
and care should be taken that ali
sprouts are rubbed of but the one
coming from the bud which was in
serted. Top CRAFTS should also be
looked after. When CRAFTS have made
growth Of from four to six inches
the string should be cut, and in cases
where the growth promises to be ex-
ceptlonally vigorous 1t is advisable to
pinch out the top, as otherwise 1t IN
liable to get broken of by winds or by
birds allghtlng on them. Crafts should
