A new industry which is being de-
veloped in Newfoundland is the sale

expected that it will sell for at least
twelve cents a pound.
The first visit to the ice cap of the
South Pole was made some fifty years
ago and since that time there has

that in the course of time it will be
possible to make approach to the pole
itself, and that the land in that
vicinity may even become inhabited.

Mrs. Ogden Goelet has had made at an
enormous expense an edition de luxe OF
the manuscript of Hyperion. The edi-
tion is limited to one copy and that
copy will be placed in her library.
Miss Ethel Bret Harte, daughter of
the famous writer of early California
life, will devote herself to concert work

death was too small to support his

A London publisher received the
manuscript of a novel written, from
beginning to end, in verse. Curious,
he read it and found it not at all a
bad story; so good, indeed, that he is
willing to print it if the author will
translate it into English prose.
A E. Houseman, professor of Latin

An American magazine recently print

Marie Corelli seems to find some
thing amiss at home. She has no
ticed that among the English upper
classes there has been growing of late
years a disregard for all that is truly
sincere and honorable, and a callous
frivolity to take it's place." She fur
their laments the disappearance of the
sterling virtues of mental and mora
stability and weight which were once
the Englishman's PRIDE"
The late Jules Verne relied chiefly
on his reading and his imagination fol
the material for his stories. To pre-.
pare himself for his Give Weeks il
a Balloon" he made a single ascent
lasting an hour. He wrote glowing de
scriptions of India and other remote
countries, though his travels never
took him beyond the Mediterranean
regions. One of his favorite author:
was Sterne, whose Sentimental Jour
ney" was the joy of his youth. An,
other favorite was James Fenimore
Cooper, whose 80 volumes he read oyel
and over again.

The Evil Spirit.

Envy is universal characteristic
of human nature. There are weak
places in the strongest of human
characters, and the weakness gen.
orally develops along the lines of
jealousy or envy. Let man be sue
cessful above the average ID any par
ticular calling, and he thereby be-
comes the target of the envious
spirit. 1t matters not that the OBJ
Jert OF these malicious attacks is
one of the main pillars of the temple
OF prosperity, and that to remove
the pillar would mean the exchange
of business prosperity for depression.
Even the strong motive of self-inter-
est is not proof against the indul-
gence of this Jealous disposition.
The popularity of jackson is not
that this spirit should exist, but that
it should be pandered to and encour-
aged by those who ought to know bet
ter. 1t Is deplorable that appeals
should be made to foster this weak
ness by decrying men who have eX-
pended money without stint in the
development of the resources of this
section, and who have made jackson
what it is to-day one of the most
prosperous towns of its size in the
state. The real enemies of any COM
munity are those engaged in this
wretched warfare against the success
full investors, whether the course Is
prompted by political or Gloss hatred
it matters not.

Mckenzie.

Hounded by a pack OF news
paper coyotes in this state,
sontemned by the people, pill
loried in a popular national ma
ga1ine, sat upon by the state su-
pfeme court-in spite of all these
hardships big, honest Alex. Nc
Kenzie remains steadfast to the
sacred trust which he has repos
ed IN himself-that of running
the whole works.
The fidelity OF the man is some
thing fierce! The same was true
Of Boss Tweed in New York city,
Of Quay in Pennsylvania, OF Cox
IN Ohio; the same is true at this
moment of Mccall and McCurdy,
those twin guardian angels OF
the New York Life and Mutual
insurance companies. Disgrace
cannot wither nor contumely
stale their infinite tenacity.
Why is it that men OF this type
are 50 blind to the inevitable, SO
Needless OF the gathering storm,
20 snblimely unconscious OF their
own weak and helpless condition
IN the. face of its power and fury?
McKen zie's case is in point. In
many respects he has beenag good
friend to North Dakota; has felt
an almost fatherly pride in it's
remarkable growth and increas-
ing psosperito. 1t has been his
state, not only politically, but
sentnpentally, as well. Why
ean't he see that now, after his
long and well high absoluter reign,
the people demand a change
and are going to have it. If they
Nust needs be bossed they will
Ut least change bosses. There is
no good reason why Mckenzie
should set his face against the
history OF the past, the logic OF
the present and the inexorable
certainty of the future. He might
retire gracefully, with the we'll
wishes OF his friends and what
ever measure OF esteem they can
accord him; otherwise he will be
retired with force and with I'M
becoming precipitancy. He can
choose That is something
well worth his earnest considera-
