A Faribault County Paper Declares for,

County Coming to the Front.

The Easton Leader, a Faribault county
paper. has nailed a banner to its mast.
head reading, For United States Sem
ator, j. r. jacobson Of Lac qui Parle. -!
It says the people wanted jacobson for
governor, but he was defeated by the big
interests of the cities, and now the Lead
er wants the people to rally to Jacobson;
for senator, so Minnesota may have a
companion to La Toilette.
1t is not considered possible by the
politicians that the Lac qui Parle man
will allow any use to be made Of his
name in this way. He is somewhat in
jured as to his feelings because of the.
active part taken by some of the Nell
son appointees in his defeat, but he is
not the sort to seek reprisal In such a
way. Senator Nelson Is the nominee of
the convention, and practically all legis-
lat1ve candidates SO far announced are
voluntarily pledging themselves to vote
for his reelection.
The other counties of the second dis
trict are calling attention to the fact that
Blue Earth has nearly her share Of
plums, and. in fact, is pretty well up
with Nicollet county as home of states

a railroad commissioner, a nominee for

1t is shame that such friend and
servant to mankind as the mule should
be given reputation it has in literature
or, rather, in newspapers and cartoons.
The mule doubtless does not know OF
its vilitication, and II it did, would not
care; but tho friends OF the mule do care
and the friends Of the mule are all who
know them. In nothing has the good
hard sense of the Missourian been
better shown than in raising and using
mules, for the mule pays for every bit
of care and appreciation the Missourian
or anybody else bestows.
Specifically the mule has the repu-
tation Of being vicious, stubborn and
kicker. He deserves none of these char
acterizations, and the average Missour.
ian knows it mighty we'll. The mule is
not naturally vicious, and it takes the
biggest kind OF a fool OF man to spoil
the temper Of an animal. The fctional
stubborness Of the mule arises from the
fact that when it appears stubborn it
usually has good sensible reason to
be, and the real mulishness is in the man
The mule knows better than he does
why this or that should be or not be, ,and
is resolute. Whatever kicking propen-
sity the mule has is derived from the
horse side of his pedigree, and that is
minimized by the patience, complacency
and docility he gets from the other side
of his pedigree. The mule is not SO
easily startled as the horse, never acts
the plum crazy fool and hurts himself
like scared horse, but as his heels are
his natural defense, be will use them 10
the pinch of necessity or apprehension.
1t is not wise thing to come upon an
animal of the horse kind, full kin or.
halfdreed, and touch it without first
letting it be known you are around, no
matter how gentle the animal may be.
The horse and mule are both startled

byssudden contact for which they ran
not for the moment account and their
nature is to kick. 5.a,s.
Really the "kiokingest" animal on the
farm is that poetadmired critter, the
meek and lowly COW. She can kick
higher, in more different directions with
less cause for doing 30 than any mule
or horse. A man knows the direction a
horse or mule will kick. It is straight
out behind. He knows, too, the forbod.
ing signs. But that man has never yet
been born who can figureon the "when-
ness" or the "whereness" OF cows
kick. There is no loss OF dignity 10 the
admission of kick from horse or q
mule, but no man likes to admit he has
been kicked by COW and hurt. Hence
the COW kicks do not get into statistics
or the newspapers and the others do.
AS to the kicking propensitios Of the
mule, it is noticeable 10 Missouri where
they know how to raise them that every
mule has shaved tail. Whenever the
mules tail needs shaving which is about
every sixty days, Missourian, letting
the mule know he is there, stands right
behind his muleship, takes that tail in
one haad and does the barbering usual
ly with pair OF sheep shears-with the
other. No man was ever kicked shaw
ing mules tail. The mule knows he
is doing. The mule works harder than
horse, stands it better and eats less.
AS an all around animal for farm work
he is in class by himself.
AS collateral the mule means more in
ready cash than anything on the farm.
He can always be turned into money.
You do not have to take him to buyers
and argue. They come to get the mule
and argue to keep you in disposing
mind. Pages could be filled with de-
served praise Of the mule, the animal
never overeats and never goes crazy.

The democratic bosses in Kan
sas City are trying to make all the
voters who vote in the primaries to
pledge themselves to support the
ticket. S
This question as to whether a
man is in honor bound to support
ticket placed in the field by a
convention or primary in which
he has taken an active part is rath-
or ticklish one. 1t has undoubt.
edly caused a werring between this
supposed political honor and con.
science in many a breast. Here is
where honor and conscience some.
times seem to conflict.
"a New IDEAL Democrat" in a
communication to the Kansas City
Journal looks at this opposition in
its true light according to our way
of thinking, when he says:
"The pledge required by the
county democratic committee as a
condition of voting at the primary
is fundamentally wrong. There is
no more deviation in the moral
standard than in the standard of
heighth or bulk.
"Eash man guiding spirit has, they
say,
Whose province is to give him strength
Throughout life's dark and devious way
And though his spirit may be bid from
sight,
He will his presence oftentimes betray.'
"This guiding spirit is con-
science. 1t should guide my act
Of voting. When 1 vote at pri-
mary, I implicitly pledge myself to
support the ticket at election with
a Proviso.
That proviso is, that the conven-
tion declares principles which ac-
cord with my conscience and nom-
mate candidates who harmonize
with my guiding spirit. The i'm
piled pledge is conditional.
"The condition is that the con.
vention will do it's duty, as my
conscience sees it's duty. If it fails
to do its duty according to the
standard Of conscience, my implied
pledge does not bind me. Con-
science is the support party COM
mittee cannot cause me to diviate
from that standard. Any rule
which invites me to deviate from
the standard of my guiding spirit,
is illegal.

The Aiiniater's Tartan.

Every clan OF Scottish hlghlanders
had its own tartan. or striped colored
cloth, OF which the kilt and plaid were
made. 1t Is not so well known, how
ever, that the clergy of the highland
ers down TO recent date used tartan
for their weekday dress. The tartan
of the clergy, as 1t was called, was a
sober cloth of white, black and gray
stripes. Minister'S who did not care TO
don the Kilt almost always wore the
plaid or mantle OF this material. In
the eighteenth century when the high
landers seldom went unarmed ii was
the custom of some clergymen to wear
swords even, at church and to be ac-
oompnnied by gillie, or servant, car.
