1t would enable thoughtful, well mean
ing voters to support men whom they
regard as good candidates without
thereby supporting what they regard
as bad politics. The principle that
the people, and not corporations or
trusts, should rule is fundamental in
our government, and there is no
doubt in the world, but that we have
drifted away from it, more than the
founders of the government originally
intended, and the sooner we get back
to first principles the better will it
be for US.
Representatives of the people in
state and nation should recognize it
as their paramount duty to repre-
sent the constitutionally expressed
convictions Of their constituents re-
speeding the enactment Of new laws
or the repeal Of old ones Every true
American should render all possible
aid, to put and keep the control of
government, and the direction of leg
fslation in the hands of the people.
Our votes should count for measures
as well as for men, and we should be
given full opportunity to express our
wish on public questions, and have
legislation enacted in accordance
Herewith.
The only possible objection that
can be advanced against the initiative
and referendum is that it assumes a
discriminating judgment, and full
ness of information, on the part of the
voters touching questions of public
policy which they are not supposed to
possess. There is positively nothing
in the objection. This is an age of
reading and intelligence. We are &C.
quainted with longshoremen in Du-
luth today that would put to shame
the learning and erudition of many Of
our most 1llustrious statesmen. We
have members in our labor Organiza-
tons that are better Informed upon
questions of craftsmanship, than are
the most pretentious of our legis-
lators at the state capital. We speak
that which we do know. But suppose
1t would practically disfranchise the
wilfully ignorant, what of it? The
object OF voting on measure is to
enable the individual to give express
sion to his opinion. If he knows moth
ing about the measure how can he
have an opinion thereon? The day of
blind partisan voting is drawing to a
! close, and the dawn of a better era
is upon us. Under the initiative and
referendum the best system Of gov
eminent ever devised by man shall be
perfected and perpetuated.

environments, is as difficult for them
as for any one else. Besides, we are
firm believer in the philosophy that
a steady, thoughtful and conservative
advocacy of good measure, will in
the long run, be productive Of far
better results, than can possibly be
attained by a pyrotechnic display of
Incorporate statements and half
truths.
To our critic we would say: Hold
your soul In patience. 1t Is the
part of wisdom for the preacher Ito
make haste slowly" Under the sort
of industrial and economic conditions
that obtained in the past, and Is still
struggling for continuance, greed and
avarice, have entrenched themselves
pretty strongly in the church. They
gained favor for themselves by loud
proclamations for temperance and q
hypocritical denunciation of such in
nocent amusements as dancing and
theatre going. They shouted for Ger.
tain moral externals, while inwardly
they were ravening wolves, with
hearts adamantined with avarice, and
all the pollutions that pertain to a
life Of selfish devotion to the god
Mammon.
Our preachers are rapidly finding
this out, but as faithful stewards of
their master, their tactics and meth
DDS for eradicating the evil, must, to
be successful, accord with the In
junction: BE We wise as serpents
and harmless as doves" The good
preacher realizes, that to put the
truth so strongly as to drive such
people entirely out of the church, is
not the way to advance the Kingdom
OF God upon earth. AS a fisher Of
men" he will aim to adopt such meth
DDS as will purify them In the church,
and at the same time constrain the
outsider to come in.
The calling of the preacher is by
no means an enviable one. When a
man has an abiding conviction Of
truth, every nerve and fiber of his
being will be resonant with it, but
the intensity of manner and method
in giving expression to it will differ
greatly in each individual. We hold
In great esteem the character and
ability Of the particular preacher, at
whom was aimed the inquiry of the
critic. at the caption of this article.
We know the aforesaid preacher is
absolutely fearless in the presenta-
ton Of Gospel truths, and that he
means to stand right on every ques-
ton that pertains to the welfare of
OH: race, both here and hereafter,
therefore we say to our critic. let US
love him none the less, even when
his methods differ from ours perhaps
~ little more"

GREENHORNs AS INVENTORS,

In 1927 carpenter of Sandwich,
Mass. wanting a piece of glass of a
peculiar size and shape, conceived the
idea that the molten metal could be
pressed into any form, much the same
as lead might be. Up to that time all
glassware had been blown, either off,
hand or in a mold, and considerable
skill was required and the process
was slow. The glass manufacturers
laughed at the carpenter, but he went
ahead and built press, and now the
United States is the greatest pressed
glassware country in the world.
In 1890 a novice in the plate glass
industry, Henry Fleckner of Pittsburg,
whose only knowledge of glass had
been acquired in a window glass fac
tory, invented an annealing "lehr,''
the most important single improve
ment ever introduced in plate glass
manufacture. In three hours by the
lehr the same work is done which un-
der the old kiln system required three
days. In four years the importations
Of foreign crown and plate glass into
the United States fell in value from
100000 to 100000.
About the same year Philip Argo.

glassmaking, invented a process by
which bottles and jars may be made
entirely by machinery, the costly blow.

bottles and jars are used in a month
now than in twelve months ten years

THE LID AGITAToR's MISTAKE

THE LID AGITATOR'S MISTAKE.
"Thou that abhorrest idols dost
thou commit sacrilege,'' is a question
that can, with great deal of pro-
pr1ety, be asked of those who would
urge the members of the. common
council of this city, to abandon their
legitimate duties as legislators, and
assume duties that pertain excl,1s-
lively to a coordinate branch of our
city government. Our constitution
and laws recognize a strong line of
demarkation between the legislative
and executive functions of govern
ment; and those sticklers for the let
ter of the law should remember that
the distinction is inherent in the
very genius Of our institutions.
The aldermen have burdens enough
OF their own, without assuming
others that don't belong to them.
There is third branch of our gov.
eminent, known as the judicial. and
those lid agitators have as much
right and access to it, for the redress
OF their grievances, and the punish
ment OF technical violations of law.
as have the aldermen.
There Is no city in this country
that has more efficient police force.
for It's size, than Duluth, and the
judges OF our courts, both Municipal
and District, are above the shadow
OF suspicion. Why then, gentlemen.
do you not go to the proper source
with your complaints, if you have
any? Your actions would indicate
that you are more anxious for noto-
riety and cheap advertising than YOU
are for UNFOLDING the majesty of the
law. Persons of that character can.

A CRITIC ANSWERED.

why don tyou take turn out Of
the preachers on the labor question. :"
was the salutation which accosted us
on Monday morning of this week. Our
would be critic continued: "The
preachers are all the time talking
about 'deplorable conditions,' but
never suggestion as to the remedy."
We have no disposition to take is
sue with the preachers. We have no
occasion to, unless it be to give addi-
t!onal momentum to their conception
OF the questions involved in the labo,.
movement.
Many Of the brightest ministers in
our land are with us, and a very re.
spectable percentage Of the rest are
discussing the matter, and gradually
emerging into the light. The over
whelming majority Of our American
clergymen are enlightened, broad
minded gentlemen, and sincerely aim
at taking the right view of all public
questions. That they sometimes err
goes without saying. They would be
more than human if they didn't The
pastors of our Duluth churches. Pro
testant and Catholic, will not suffer
by comparison with those of any city
in the Union, and 1t is gratifying to
note, that certain phases of the labor
question are receiving attention in
their pulpits. DR.. Rice of the M. e

How to Decorate the Turkey.

The Christmas turkey is dressed

but very shiny, with the shine caused
