These bands slide around the back,

notes of engagements for parts of

To identify the present month a strip

BE COURTEOUS.

Minneapolis can not be too courteous
and considerate in its treatment of the
old soldiers the coming week. The
time is fast approaching when there
will be no more encampments of the
Grand Army of the Republic. The
great majority of those who so faith-
fully served the country in the war for
the abolition of slavery have already
passed beyond, and Il large propor-
tion of those who still remain have all
ready attained to the allotted age of
man. 1t can only be IL few years at
most when the last man who served in
that war will answer the final sum-
mons. If the people of Minneapolis
keep these facts in mind they cannot
fail in extending to the old men the
treatment to which their past great
services entitle them. We should Ell
deavor to Outdo, if possible, all past
efforts at entertainment. 1t is to be
hoped that the people of Minneapolis
will not look upon the coming of the
old soldiers as simply an opportunity
to make money. Some there are who
will be inclined to make the most or
it in that direction, but 1t is to be
hoped that the people OF the city as
a whole will do their very best to
make the visitors feel at home. In
the natural course of events Minne-
apOliS cannot expect to ever again
have the opportunity of entertaining
the old soldiers. They will have no
successors, and, consequently, we will
never have a chance to correct any
failures in courtesy or fair treatment
that may occur. Let us endeavor to
make the delinqucncies as few as pos-
sible, and send the old veterans to their
homes with the thought that those who
are now doing the active work of the
world appreciate the great service that
they rendered almost half Il century
ago.

pie of Minneapolis are paying too much

can be rendered to the people of this
city by Il sustained and vigorous effort

expires than by appealing to the preju-
dice. ineXperience and lack of knowl-

not Il panacea for all the evils that ex.
list in municipal administration. Able

pal ownership of certain public utili-
ties, brought about good results in the

ership itself on a large scale in large
cities in this country is still a theory
In theory it may be right but as a
practical proposition in cities where
city councils can not be trusted with
the duties now conferred upon them
municipal ownership would surely be a
failure. 1t would confer upon domi-
nant political bosses far greater power
than they now possess.
Those who are advocating municipal
ownership in this city could accom-
plish more by directing their attention
and energy to the election of aldermen
pledged and bound to /, platform of
municipal regulation than by attempts
ing to nominate and elect a mayor VINO
would have no power to bring about
municipal ownership even if the scheme
We're practicable. We think that the
campaign in favor of municipal own
ership as carried on at the present time
in Minneapolis is ill-timed. 1t will

IRISH HOPES STILL HIGH.

The Parliament which adjourned
last week for the mid summer recess
accomplished nothing in the way Of
legislation for the relief of Ireland. The
situation does not seem to in the least
discourage or even disappoint the Irish
Nationalists. Recent remarks made
by Mr.. John Redmond leave only one
conclusion to be drawn, and that is
that the Liberal ministry and the Irish
Nationalists have an understanding
that Ireland is to be looked after dur
ing the next session. Redmond recent
ly said as much, but rightly refused to
disclose what the understanding is.

proven himself a much stronger Prime
Minister than was expected. He has

tion of both OF his supporters and op.
ponents than he held as leader of the
minority. The principal measure over
which contention arose during the last
session was the English educational
bill. Upon this measure the Irish Ma
tionalists supported their English Cath.
olic brethren and voted against the
Liberal ministry, but upon every other
question the Irish have been loyal to
Campbell Bannerman. The educa-
tional bill has stirred England to {.
greater extent than any other measure
in recent years. Not since the time of
Cromwell has the religious passion OF
the people been so thoroughly aroused.
The measure has passed the House of
Commons and will be sent to the Lords
1t is too early to say what treatment
it will receive at their hands. If one
We're to Judge by the remarks attribute
ed to leading members of the House
of Peers he would conclude that the
education bill of the new govern
ment would be defeated and thrown
out 1t is probable, however. that an
honest attempt will be made to arrive
at a compromise. Bannerlnan's scheme
of government for the Beers met
at first with violent opposition from.
Mr.. Balfour and his colleagues but now
even the Unionists admit that the bill
is better than could be expected.
Reynolds newspaper in IA recent is
sue stated OH what it called good aus
thority that a scheme of self-govern-
ment for Ireland had been agreed upon
and would be introduced into the
House of Commons during the next
session. 1t is known that Chief Sec
ret:.ry Bryce will introduce :. bill large-
fy extending the Irish system of local
government, recognizing Dublin Cas-
tile and sweeping away most of the
numerous boards that now govern Ire
land with a view to placing the whole
executive system under the control OF
the Irish people. 1t is true that that
alone would not constitute Home Rule
in the sense which that term was un-
derstood in Gladstone's Home Rule
bills, but it is. nevertheless. a long
step in advance and possibly Is as
much as could be obtained at the pres
ent time from a Tory House of Lords:
Sir Anthony Mcdonnell expressed in
Dublin, on August 4th. that 1907 will
see the satisfaction of many wishes
which the best Irishnnen have cher
ished for many years. He did not
claim for it that it would bring the
full fruition of all the hopes that many
IriShmen have entertained but it
would. he said, mean so much that
lrishmen if true to themselves, could
make it the source from which in time
their brightest dreams might be real
ized.

The Chicago Federation Of Labor on
Sunday held labor BAPTISM" at
which the eighteen months old son Of
Henry G. Creel of the Bookbinders'
Union was tremendously dedicated to
the cause of organized labor, says the
Catholic Columbian. The Associated

baptism is expected to have the same
effect as the sprinkling of water at
a church baptism to dedicate the child
to the cause of organized labor for

The King and the lrishman.

Frederick of Prussia, it is said, had
great mania for enlisting gigantic
soldiers into the Royal Guards, and
paid an enormous bounty to his re-
cruiting officers for getting them, says
the Pittsburg Observer. This fact is
the basis of the following story from
Judges magazine:
One day the recruiting sergeant
CHANGED to espy Hibernian who was
at least seven feet high. He accosted
him in English and proposed that he
should enlist. The idea of military
life and large bounty so delighted
Patrick that he at once enlisted.
But unless you can speak German
the King will not give you so much.

KNOWS every man in the guards AS

ask you how old you are; you win
say twenty-seven; next. how long YOU
have been in the service; YOU must
reply three weeks; finally, if YOU are
provided with clothes and rations, YOU

Pat soon learned to pronounce his
answers, but never dreamed of learn
ing the questions.
In three weeks he appeared before
the king in review. His Majesty rode
up to him. Patrick stepped forward

How old are you?" said the king.
