RELIGION i'm Common Life.

Carry religious principles into COM
mon life, and common life will lose its
transformers. The world passeth
away. The things seen are temporal.
Soon business, with all its cares and
anxieties, the whole "unprofitable stir
and fever Of the world, Twill be to us
thing Of the past But religion does
something better than sigh and mourn
over the perishableness Of earthly
things. It finds in them the seeds Of
mmortality.-John Card.

IRELAND's TULIP FARMS.

"Acres and Acres" Comprise Field OF
"Great Strong Giants"
It Is not exclusively a tulip farm
any more than it is a daffodil, or a
narcissus, or an anemone, or an iris
farm, since it's many acres Of gardens
and fields are given up to the culture
Of these and every other kind of bulb,
but when I saw it day of May the
tulips with their great deep cups and
gorgeous colorings seemed to have
blotted out every lesser blossom, says
the London Pail Mall Gazette
The little fields lie scattered at the
feet Of whitewashed, golden-roofed cot
tages dotted here and there about the
outskirts of the quiet sea-girt village,
almost In the shadow Of the church
steeple, and as one drives along the
white sandy roads one sees the tulips
In dazzling strips of gold and pink and
purple and white and crimson stretch
ing away on all sides.
Out beyond the little turf.buflt banks
which make so effectual a barrier be-
tween the blossoms and the rough
breezes, lie the sand dunes and the sea,
shimmering and sparkling in the bril-
liant May sunshine, its blue waters
rejecting back the cloudless azure Of
the skies and throwing into greater re-
lief the rugged outlines Of the islands
on Its bosom, while here and there a
tiny white-winged yacht sails fast be-
fore the strong sea wind to some en-
chanted fairy land.

little fields and potato gardens Of the
cotters, bought up at different periods,
just as he could get them, by the en-
terprising cultivator of bulbs. The
green banks Of turf and the privet
hedges, close cut and sheltering, are
the same that the dead and gone occu-
piers Of the snow-white cottages built
for themselves in times gone by, to
guard their more prosaic crops of DO
tatoes or cabbage, or lettuce from tho
winds Of the east and north.
The soil is sandy, so much 80 that
ones feet sink softly into 1T to the
depth Of many inches as one traverses
the narrow pathways which intersect
that dazzling array of tulip beds. Field
after field is stretched before one, acres
and acres Of tulips-and such tulips!

giants, measuring from head to foot
from two and a half to three feet.

stems and rich green foliage full Of
health and vigor. They flourish brave

lifting their chalice-like cups in tho

Here lies a great bed Of orange yell

Immigration. according to students
Of the subject, follows the parallels
Of latitude-that is, people who move
TO a new country seek to settle in a
climate as near as possible to that of
their old home. This is held to &C.
count in a measure for the refusal of
European immigrants to settle In our
Southern States. The theory does not
work out, however. If it did we should
see the Italians, for instance, focking
to the South and to California, where
as in truth they gather in the large
cities Of the North. The truth prob
ably is that the negro question has
most to do with the slackness of immi-
grafton into the South. The newcom-
srs have no race pre1udices, but they
fear low-priced competition.

Giving Is essential to the complete

Qualification for 300 times $3.50.
Mr.. Hill has achieved great
things for the northwest during
the years that he has been build
ing up one of the finest railway
systems in the north west.
But the northwest does not
owe Mr.. Hill anything. 1t has
paid him several times over and
it is busy writing out more
checks today. Mr.. Hill is a great
railroad man; he was great
enough in the early days to see
the possibilities of Minnesota and
the northwest and great enough
to lay plans to turn these posi-
bilities to his own profit.
The northwest owes Mr.. Hill
neltEer money nor gratitude. 1t
has paid him heavy cash divi-
dends for the use of his genius
in developing a great territory
and it was in expectation of those
payments, alone, that Mr.. Hill
undertook the construction of his
northwest railway system.
Mr.. Hill has been the recipient
of great deal of unnecessary
praise and a great deal of un.
called for blame. He is very
much like other mortals-o only
smarter than some of the rest of
US. He has built his railway for
what there was in it for him
self and he tries to make as
much as possible out of it. The
rest of us would do just the same
If we had the opportunity, and

THEN TELL THE TRUTH.

Beltrami County News: The
author of the heavy editorial in
Tuesdays Pioneer with refer
ence to Judge Pendergast, the
aldermen and the gamblers, 'had
better study his jurisdiction
primer some more and then re-
wise his statements. The asser-
ton that it was the specific duty
OF the justice to remand the
gam bier against whom "a COM
plant is made to the grand jury
is about as far from the truth as
the statement could be made.
The ordinance in force in this
city makes gambling a misde-.
meanor and the justice has full
power to levy a fine or place a
sentence. The fine, in due sea
son, reaches the city treasurer,
when otherwise, if the arrest was
made under the state law, it
would be converted into the
county treasury. Then, the JUS
tlce does not make the complaint.
It is up to the complainant to
elect whether the same shall be
made under the municipal ordin-
ance or the state law. On the
gambling proposition, the com
plant is made by the chief of
police, under an ordinance, and
the fine imposed accrues to the
city, when otherwise, as above
stated, it would go to the county.
1t may not be as convenient but
it will be more advantageous to
tell the truth about these mat
tiers.
