alone killed 1,s41. This does not include; those
who left the state for treatment. DR.. Stevens
believes that no less than 2, 800 die every year.
Therefore 1000 is conservative estimate. Yet,
he says, it is preventable disease: ~ -
The adjudicated value of human life is
$4,000. If 1000 die, the economic loss to the
state is $40, 900, 900. This does not include two

other way. The average age at which con-

As there are 2OOO the annual loss is $15,-

crop assurance and is unquestionably
due to the cultivation Of the land. Wher
the two Dakotas were the feeding
ground of millions Of buffalos, the
ground was trampled down hard anC
the grass grazed close to the earth. The
soil absorbed little or no moisture, the
rainfall quickly returning by the big

too, the Indians burned off the grass

game into the river and creek bottoms

Red Wing, Mimi, Nov. 1S.-Several hundred
delegates are here attending the annual conven-

association. After a visit to the city schools,
a session was held in the high-school assembly

The subject of 'The Relative Merits for Pub

Vertical and Slant Systems of Writing was
taken up for discussion. Professor G. c. Curtis
of Minneapolis was to be present to support the
vertical writing system, but telegram was
received stating that he unable to attend.
The style was supported by Superintendent R.
K. Row of Berwyn, Ill.,, author Of textbook
on the subject. He said:
my creed in this connection is a very simple
one. Writing should be taught in such a way
that ordina riy. that, is with the vast majority
of pupils, it is unnecessary to say anything
about the slant ~ Or, direction of the letters
Models we must have, but they should be used
as models only, and not as inexorable rules
Vertical Writing Advocate.
President ". A. Shoemaker of st. Cloud alsc
took part in the discussion. He believed that
vertical writing was good up to the sixth grade
but after that slant writing should be impressed
upon the pupil.

KENTON MYSTERY SOLVED
Remains of Man Who Disappeared
Found on River Bank.

: HANCOCK, MICH.-The mystery of the dis
at Kenton, Houghton county, last winter, has
been cleared by the discovery of his remains on
the bank Of the river at that place. Only the
skeleton found wrappett in weather-beaten
garments. The skull was detached and lay
several feet distant, no doubt the work of
crows or carnivorous animals. 1t is the opinion
that the unfortunate man pitched headlong down
the steep bank into the river and was doubtless
only able to crawl to the place on the opposite
bank where his bones We're found. He lived
singular life. and no one appears to have
knowledge of his antecedents or his former home.
He. was well educated but victim of strong
drink, and did odd jobs for living.

schoolboy; each little competitor IN
"Noos Alley evinces personal interest
in the strife of commerce.
There is one baby | am sure is not
more than five. and many a s~ix-year-old
is numbered among the vendors that
have not yet reached the dignity of a
corner, the stand appearing to be on a
high plane in this business. The small
fry rightly begin at the bottom, serve an
apprenticeship of wandering peddler
and jumper on cars. BY and by, when
the boy sells 100 papers a day, his news
paper gives him a stand; and he is es-
tablished, begins to dress like an aristo-
crat.
The babies dress in rags and sweaters,
the sweater the backbone of the cos
tune, the rags hanging on for decency's
sake. Another distinguishing feature
of the baby newsboy is a wool cap pulled
down so only a fringe of hair shows
at the back, the front almost covering
the forehead. The youngsters, Italians
or Jews, look out under the overhang-
ing caps with eyes big and dark, and
often very beautiful, childish, pathetic
eyes, rather than the sharp ferret sort
one would naturally expect in humanity
so early sent out to struggle for exist
ence.
In every case it is the b~abyishness
that strikes the passer-by, the pale faces
have such rounded contour, the small
voices can scarce pronounce the words
they try for so bravely. The puny legs,
the elfin hands, betray the fiedgeling, in
spite Of filedgeling's assertion that he is
truly aged. One wishes ~ could sweep
the whole bunch of them off the stony
streets, send them all away where there
is green grass and fresh air and rich
milk and dogs to play with.

l am not the advocate of saloons, for
hard official experience has shown me
that peril lies latent in every saloon
peril to the home, the individual and
the community. But the saloon is a
condition, an established fact, and a
mayor must meet conditions as they
are, looking ahead to what they may
be in the future and adopting plans
and policies designed to handle the
condition so that it will not jeopardize
the municipality in this future time.
Historical reforms and injudicious OPP
position will do much to add growth
and power to the saloon. The past has
shown this. What must be done to
hold this element in check and guide
it along the path of safety is to fight
the lawless element made up of saloon
keepers who own respectable, law
abiding places. The majority of the
saloonkeepers l came in contact with,
and met hundreds during my term of
office, expressed themselves as willing
to go to almost any extreme to wipe
out the low groggeries which gave bad
regulations to all saloons and their
owners. The most powerful influence
at my command in those days when |
tried to eliminate the evil saloons
were the brewers of my city. These
men stood ready at all times to aid me,
and | never called on them in vain.
| offer this suggestion to the sincere
men and women who are ever found
opposed to the saloon. A~nalyze the sit
uation calmly and without prejudice.
Accept the fact that the saloon is here
to stay. Then call upon the brewers
and respectable saloonkeeDers to join
you in a rational effort to close up
and keep closed those drinking places
where criminals gather, and you will
find back of you a well-organized ele-
ment which will help you accomplish
your purpose. l know that this sug-
gestiOn will not meet with favor of
radical reformers, but it is eminently
practical, and in the light of my may
oral experience with reformers, saloon
keepers and gamblers l may be par
doned for venturing the proposition
that in great movements the middle
course not only is the wisest, but the
most effective.
