Two unique characters will shortly enter the halls of the house of repre- sentatives. They are Tom Gale and Frank Waskey, miners of Alaska. who were elected last summer as del egates to congress from that far-ofr territory, on the miners ticket. After congress passed the bill grant, ing representation to Alaska the cam paign was on. About a month before the election the miners got together at Fairbanks. the largest town in Alaska, and expressed their dissatis- faction with the ways of the various parties. Some one suggested that a miner be named as a delegate to con- gress and Gale was the man chosen. This news reached Nome and the cry was taken up. The leaders of the two cities got together and nom mated Gale for the long term and waskey for the short term. They were elected over all others.

We have recently dragged, through
 smart methods, over s40,00O,000 of gold from London by paying high
 rates for it, which has resulted in a I rumpus in the money situation there,
 as evidenced by the scare shown by | the Bank of England in suddenly put ting it's rate up to per cent, says
 Banker Clews. This has forced liqui- dation in American securities abroad, the amount of which is nearly equal in value to the amount of gold im- ported; and while we still have the S4O,000,0vO of European gold, they have capitalized it by making us carry
 the American stocks which they have thrown back upon us. This proves the rule that it never pays to be too smart. The rates of foreign and de-
 nestle exchange are against New
 York and the carrying rate for American stocks in London is g per
 cent, which are not favorable factors
 in our stock market; neither are the
 threatened strikes on New York Cen
 tral, Rock Island and St Paul, which,
 if they materialize, are likely to af- feet other roads. This shows the un- rest among railroad employees, as they feel they are not getting their share of the big profits of the railroads, as indicated by the largely increased dividends. About all the increased
 dividends have now been declared
 and the market has fairly discounted
 them. With the result of the elec- tions for congress as we'll as for gov ernor of New York in doubt, and the above adverse factors, still continue to advise against getting largely into debt by over-buying stocks.

The surrender of their arms on the part of the Cuban rebels Is a farce. The guns turned over are for the most part worthless, and of the 12,000 rebels it is not expected that more than 1000 will give up their rifles. By the terms of surrender they are allowed to keep the horses they reQuisitloned, the Cuban gov- ernment indemnifying the original owners.-Bridgeport Farmer.
 As the Paige campaign in Bridge port goes on 1t only shows that Paige wants to get into the senate to fur ther his own private ends. His past legislative history should be sufi- cient to keep him at home. But then Paige is not alone in the number that should retire to private life. There are those nominated by both political parties who are deserving of the same fate.-Middletow Press.

Hence the larger number of mail vehicles required by the postal departments in Europe.

Owing to the shifting of American soldiers and sailors in the Cuban re- public few suggestions to their rela- tiyeS and friends who may wish to communicate with them by mail will be in order. To secure prompt de- livery of mail for persons in the mili- tary, naval or civilian service of the United otates. the senders should designate on the envelope the organ ization, company and regiment, ves- sel or other branch of the service to which the addressee belongs. Full postage should be affixed. Senders should put their address on the en- velope so its return will be facilitated in case the addressee is not found. The sailor and soldier boys of the United States need not bother with postage stamps on their communion tions home, for a recent regulation of the government permits them to send mail matter to this country or to any of it's possessions free. when en- dorsed and signed with his official designation by a field officer, post or detached commander to whose com mand the soldier belongs. These will be dispatched without the pre- payment of postage, but the single rate of postage will be collected on delivery.

/ In the winter Of ,1s43-A4, Warren
Chase, an intelligent young man, ma,
tive of New Hampshire, then residing,
at Kenosha, Wis, moved to an enthu-
siastic belief in the Fourier brand of
socialism, by the agitation for it car
ried> on by Horace Greeley in the New
York Tribune, resolved to put the the
ory into practice. He gathered about
him large party of men and women,
all possessing some means, which they
placed in common treasury and or
ganized community on the lines laid
down by the. French economist. They
purchased 600 acres of government
land in Ripon township, Fond du Lac
county, Wis, and in May, 1874, Chase,
with nineteen associates established
themselves there. They were well sup
piled with agricultural tools and live
stock.
The settlement was called Ceresco,
after the goddess of agriculture, and
styled themselves "Phalanx,o a
name suggested by Fourier. They open
ed farms, built dwellings and shops
and in a brief time the community was
joined by others to the extent Of 200
souls.

had to be convinced that the applicant
was "wise, Industrious and benevo-
lent if he was to receive favorable
consideration.
Never had socialism a fairer oppor-
tunity for success than at Ceresco.
Starting with a. strong, vigorous stock
Of men and women in the prime of life,
located in a community where cheap
fertile soil, healthful climate and pleas
ant surroundings made conditions ideal
for success, at the end of six years the
members of the phalanx unanimously
voted to disband, and selling their
property divided up the proceeds, and
in the best of good feeling toward each
other started out in life 3 race where
they could be on an even footing with
other men.
The reasons they urged for their ac-
tion in breaking up the phalanx were
that the strong and willing were
iyoked to those who were weak and
slothful; there was no chance for nat
ural abilities to assert themselves, no
reward for individual excellence, while
the existence was without the charm Of
home life and one IS family affairs were
the affairs of ALL.
Since socialism failed in Ceresco,
thoughtful persons will be slow to ap-
ply it in-well, say Chicago.
The Minneapolis journal. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1888-1939, 1906-02-18

The members were classified accord
ing to ability, or capacity to labor, in
educational, mechanical and agricultur-
al series, each series being divided into
groups. The government was headed
by a president and nine councillors.
Each series had a chairman and each
group a foreman.
DR.. Thwaites thus describes the oper-
ations of the phalanx: Labor was
voluntary, the shops being owned by
the community at large; while the land
was equally divided among all of the,
members, old and young, save that no
family might possess more than forty
acres. AS the community grew more
land was purchased for their use. The
council laid out the work to be done,
or the policy to- be pursued. When
there was a question tofbe decided, the
series interested voted upon it; but in.
some Importance cases, the matter was
referred for final action to the several
groups. Each person received pay ac-
cording to his value as worker, the
record being kept by the foreman Of
his group. They were not paid upon
the Same scale; for instance, the mem

Altho the figures given shove give
some idea of the interest taken in edu-
cation, they do not furnish an adequate
conception of the enthusiasm with
which large number of these students
pursue their studies. Nearly fifty
young men called upon me or wrote to
me asking to be taken to America that
they might continue their studies
Many Of the leading men in Japan
today are graduates Of American or
European colleges. The physicians have
shown a preference for German schools,
while to engineers and politicians our
universities have been more attractive.
A part Of the friendliness felt toward
foreigners can be traced to the favors
shown Japanese boys who left home in
search Of knowledge. Marquis Ito, one
Of the first Of these, owes much to an
elder Of the Presbyterian church in
England, in whose home he lived as a
student, and the marquis has ever since

| Japan has several religions, altho
shintoism has been, since 1868, the
state religion. AS a matter Of fact,
however, Shintoism can hardly be
called a religion, for it has no creed,
no priesthood and no code of morals.
It is really ancestor worship and comes
down from time immemorial. 1t, i'm
plies belief in Immortality, for the
ancestral spirits are invoked and vows
are paid to them at numberless shrines
that dot the country. These shrines
are not usually in temples, altho
sometimes Shintoism and Buddhism
have been mixed together and one tenn
