The world is yours and mine dear
readers. You may not be rich,
neither am |, but the sun, the moon,
the stars, the heavens, the streams,
the valleys, the mountains, the trees,
the flowers are yours. Everything
beautiful on earth was put here for
you. No man can dispute your title
to live and breathe, to see and hear,
and if you don't take in all the beau.
ties set before you no one is to blame
but you. Look at the mountain and
stream and say '"They are mine,"
and who shall gainsav you? All the
grand things builded by nature is
yours if you SO declare and know how
to enjoy them. The richest man is
no better off in this respect than

COAL OUTPUT OF ILLINOIS,
Product for 1905 Was 38,434.a6
Short Tons.

Washington, Nov. 20.-The total
production Of coal during 1905 in Illi-
nois was 3S,434,363 short tons, with a
spot value of $4O,577 ,592, according to
a report made to the geological sur
vey by E. w. Parker Of the United
States geological survey. Illinois still
ranks next to Pennsylvania in the pro.
duction of coal. The production in
West Virginia in 1905 was 37,791 $50
short tons. The report says the ex.
pectation is that the returns for 1906
will show West Virginia to be the Sec
ond coal producing state in the union
from the fact that the Illinois mines
suffered from shutdown last spring.
while those of West Virginia for the
most part were kept going continu.
ously.
The Illinois coal mines in 1905 gave
employment to 58,053 men, who work
ed an average of 201 days. The rec.
ords show that 1928 men we're on
strike during the year and lost an
average of 81 days each. The larger
number of mines in Illinois work their
men eight hours day. During the
fiscal year 1905 there were 199 fatal.
tiles in the Illinois mines and 535 men
were injured. Premature blasts or
windy shots are the principal causes
Of the fatal accidents.

cRAPsEY RENoUNcEs CHURCH.
Reaffirms Beliefs on Which He Was
Convicted of Heresy.

Rochester, N. Y, Nov 27.-Rev. Al
gernon S. Crapsey, rector of st. An
dreW's church, of Rochester, N. Y,
who was recently suspended by an
ecclesiastical court for heresy. has
renounced his ministry in the Protest
ant Episcopal church in a letter to
Bishop William Davis Walker of the
western diocese of New York.
IN the letter Rev. Mr.. Crapsey re-
affirms his belief that the accepted
origin of Jesus as "a son of man born
without human father is without
foundation in history.
He also asserted that when I saw
of Jesus that he ascended into heaven
do not mean and cannot mean that
with his physical body of flesh blood
and bones he floated into space and
for 1000 years has been existing
somewhere in the sky in that very
physical body of flesh, blood and
bones. Such an existence would
seem to me, not glorious, but hor-
rible"
Il appeal" said DR.. Crapsey, from
those in places of authority in the
church to the great body of people. -

How to Drain Eastern Marshall
County.
A. p. Meade, of the U. S. Geologi-
Cal Survey was in our burg short
while Wednesday. Mr.. Meade has
the survey nearly completed and has
made plans by which he believes
this reservation can be thoroughly
drained at very low cost. The fol-
lowing is an outline of what Mr..
Meade will recommend to congress as
the most practical means of drainage.
In the course of the survey he has
found sufficient fall to the south
west to warrant it necessary to dig a
cut off ditch across the big swamp
south of here and he has made a pre-
liminary survey commencing in the
township OF Lee, in Beltrami county,
somehere near section 9 and then
running in a southwesterly direction
to the Red Lake River. On this
line he finds that there is about seven
teen feet fall. He then believes that
by opening up the Moose, Mud and
Little rivers that the whole reserva-
tion will have sufficient drainage.

Hello, brother correspondents!
We will again try to contribute a
few news items and let..people know
we are still alive.
Now the campaign is over, and we
are rejoicing over the reelection of
Governor Johnson, not because it is
a Johnson, or a Democratic victory,
but because it is a manifestation of
good citizenship, an example of pop
ular appreciation of ability and fdel-
1ty in public office, and gives assur-
ance that the voters of Minnesota are
sufficiently Intelligent and fair to ex-
press their appreciation of such SER
vice regardless Of the political COM
pleXion of him who renders the ser
vice.
The habitual observance of the
rule or practice to rward faithful
public servants by emphatic popular
approval will result in better laws
and better administration than will
otherwise obtain.

Severer Punishment for Men Who Are
Captured Is Recommended by Gen.
Ainsworth to Discourage the Prac-
tice.

Washington, Nov. 27-Desertion is
on the increase in the United States
army. The annual report of the mil
itary secretary shows that in the year
ended June so there were 6,25S de-
sertions, or IA for every 100 soldiers
in the army. In 1905 the rate of de-
sertion was only 6S and for the three
years previous to that time the rate
of desertion was only 6.1 From 1895
to 1904 the average of desertion was
only 4.5 per cent. The rate of de-
sertion in 1906 was highest in the
field artillery, 9.2 per cent. The cav
airy was next with 7.8 per cent.
White soldiers showed a desertion
average Of S.4 per cent, while the
negro soldiers showed an average of
Only 2.3 per cent. twenty-five per
cent of the desertions were in the
first three months of the deserter's
enlistment. Ninety per cent of the
deserters we're of native birth, and as
SO per cent of the enlisted men in
1906 were Of native birth the rate of
desertion among natives and foreign
erS was about the same.
Of the men who deserted in 1906
S15 have been apprehended and 240
surrendered to the military authori-
tics. The total number Of deserters
convicted of desertion, sentenced to
confinement and dishonorably dis
charged was 62S.
"The number of desertions," says
General AinsWOrth, ''dOubtless will be
decreased if the military authorities

ALL IS PEACEFUL IN CUBA
LAST SIGN or. REVOLT IN ISLAND
DISAPPEARS.
Rural Guards Capture Band OF Eight
Men From Cienfuegos and
-. Disarm Them.

Havana, Nov. 27-With the capture
of the Cienfuegos band of eight men
who took to the woods under ex-Chief
of Police Ruis, the last vestige Of dis
order in Cuba has disappeared. Ruis
was at first reported to have a large
following, but the capture of the men
referred to has proven this to be un-
true.
The reports received by Governor
Magoon from all parts of the island
show that perfect tranquility prevails.
There is not even the faintest rumor
OF trouble anywhere. Investigation of
the report that bands of insurgents
were operating in the vicinity of
Palmyra and Guines prove them to
be unfounded. The despatch of a de.
tachment of American marines to Pal
nyra is explained as being simply for
the purpose of relieving the garrison
in accordance with the plans made
a week ago. Mr.. Magoon is much
gratified at the peaceful condition of
affairs, which he believes will continue
and thus completely restore confidence
and prepare the way for proceeding
with the work of re-establishing a
stable government.
Washington, Nov. 27.-Secretary
Taft received the following dispatch
Monday from Governor Magoon at
Havana under Sundays date:
"Band from Cienfuegos overhauled
by detachment of rural guards un.
der command Captain Landa. They
were taken into custody and disarmed
with difficulty and are now beina
brought to Cienfuegos. Band was com
posed of eight men,"

THOUGHT IT TIME TO STOP.
Wonders of the Telephone Too Much
for Sitting Bull.

G. j. H. Woodbury., the engineering
expert of the telephone company, told
the boot and shoe men the other night
the true version of the Sitting Bull
and telephone story, says the Boston
Herald. Sitting Bull had been cap
tured by the United States troops and
was held in close confinement. So
also was another obstreperous Indian,
hello in confinement at post about
100 miles away. The officer in charge
of Sitting Bull had been chasing the
Indians for two months, and was Won
dering what he would do with the cap
tive. In an inspired moment he de-
cided to arrange an interview between
the two Indians over the telephone.
After the necessary ringing up Sitting
Bull was asked if he cared to talk into
the machine. He talked into it for
several minutes and did heap of
listening also.
He put down the instrument finally,
and for hours was even more gloomy
than usual, at last beginning to talk
to himself, something very rare for
the Indian Asked if he was dissatis-
fed with his accommodations or if
there was anything they could do for
him he broke forth at last:
mo. I'm finished. It's all right
when the white mans plaything talks
the white mans language; but when
it learns to talk the red mans tongue
it's time to STOP"
1t is believed in the west, where
the incident is fairly we'll known, that
this talk over the telephone between
the two Indians had a considerable in
fuence in shortening the Indian wars.
