Pays $1,000 for University Pig.

The department of animal husbandry
of the University of Wisconsin reports
the recent sale of their choice Berkshire
boar, Star Masterpiece" End, to II.
C. Taylor, Orfordville, for the extra
ordinary sum of 81 900. This price so
far as can be learned, exceeds any
price ever paid for a hog bred and de
bred by Mr.. Taylor and when about
two months old was discovered in his
herd along with very fine little nate.
Mr. Taylor was urged to sell one of the
pigs to the university which he finally
consented to do. The price paid was
seyenty-five dollars, which would be a
very high price for am ordinary pig
He now buys the animal back for the
fabulous price of one thousand dollars.

THIS SEASONS WOOL CLIP.

The cold, backward spring has caused
slow movement in the wool industry.
Only small per cent of shearing has
been done, in this section at least,
hence deliveries have been few. Sales
on the local market started at Is cents.
and it is claimed the prevailing price
will not range far from that figure for
unwashed wool. Last year prices went
to 20 cents and better, and there was a
great deal Of contracting done among
farmers for their wool clip. We are
not advised whether there is that ele-
ment in the buying the present season.
Wholesalers and commission sfirms as
sert that the demand for western wool
is strong, indicating that there is not
an overproduction throughout the coun-
try and in foreign lands. Buyers sound a
word of caution ABOUT preparing wool
for market. Our paragraph reads:
ut is very essential that wool should
be made as attractive as possible, and
we would impress upon you the necessity
of using wool Irvine, tying the fleeces
shorn side out. Manufacturers object
very seriously to sisal or binding Irvine. F"

DR.. Cowgirl at Mankato.

DIR. F. B. Cowgirl preached before
his old congregation at Mankato last
week, and the Free Press reports a
considerable portion of his sermon.
The following extract shows that
the doctor has decided opinions of
his own about socialism and kindred
problems of the hour, and is not
afraid to speak his mind:
Il champion no particular pro-
gram, but the time has come when
unqualified sneering at socialism
must cease. Socialism is a cropping
after true brotherhood, and broth
erhood is good. Jesus believed in
brotherhood, taught it, exemplifed
it. Christians above all should teach
brotherhood. They do now, but
most certainly should increase their
efforts. Socialism must forget her
issue with churches and see that the
churches are trying to follow the
Christ. Their efforts Of true philan-
thropy are tremendous.
Socialism is a body outside of
orthodoxy. Such brotherhoods put
their stamp upon the early Christian
church, and today there are bodies
outside of orthodoxy to promote
brotherhood. There are moral ideas
and tenets in them. William j..
Bryan and Theodore Roosevelt are
forces for moral ideals and promot-
ers of brotherhood. Sectarianism
is losing strength. Baptists no long
er think that the Methodists are
going to perdition. Little churches
struggling on are a parody, and
such churches are talking of coming
together into big ones. Coming to-
gether is the order OF the day.
Recognition Of Christ by all is need
ed for universal brotherhood.
Now, let every church haye pro-
gram. What shall we do? Face all
the facts with an open eye. Get
the answer out of existing condi-
tons. Let the pastor and people
work together for definite pur-
pose. The outlook is hopeful"

Judge Dickinson of the Hennepin
county district court rendered a de-
cision concerning high school fra
ternities last week. which, if sus-
tanned by the higher court, is of
far-reaching Importance. An appli-
cation for temporary injunction
restraining the Minneapolis board
of education from expelling high
school pupil on account of his mem
bership in fraternity contrary to
the rulesTlaid down by the school
board, and the anti-fraternity school
law passed last winter, was brought
by w. F. Brooks, father of the boy
His attorneys argued that the anti
fraternity statute and the regula-
lions Of the school board were alike
unconstitutional. Judge Dickinson
not only upholds the constitutional
ity of the law, but sustains the
powers of the school boards and
incidentally of all school boards in
this state-in languarge plain and
unequivocal: There can be no
longer any question that the power
of the school authorities over the
pupils is not confined to the school

Out of respect to a faithful en-
won out.

Out of respect to a faithful en-
ployee of the Waterbury Watch
Company, Ellen Calvin, the big
factory closed down and 1000 en-
ployees stopped work the other day
to attend her funeral. Miss Calvin
had worked in the factory 46 years,
and lost but five days from her ma
chine in that time. The remarkable
statement is made that when the
company offered to retire her she
refused and when they offered to
raise her wages she refused again,
saying her work was worth no more
than she was getting. She accumu-
lated a neat fortune, and the only
unfavorable deduction from her
story is that she must have become
something of machine herself, to
work at one thing so long with only
five days off.

A story of human interest was

iron beam in danger of swerving

town last winter when the weather

dent of the bank, who offered me
position at 81 500 year. just double
what | have ever been able to earn
and was ashamed to tell him that
my lack of education prevented it's
acceptance.
He was asked how it happened
that he had not secured an educa-
ton, and replied: ct was just
boys foolishness. My brothers and

and would take any odd job rather
than waste time as we called it, in
school, though our mother. who was
a widow, Isaid all she could to get us
to go on in school. My sister, who
stuck to school, although she had to
dress plainly, and worked for her
board at homework while attending
normal school, is now teacher in a
high school, receiving salary more
than double what any of us boys
can earn in year at steady work,
and she has three months vacation

THIRD TERM NOT WANTED.

Last Friday, the thirteenth, the
papers put final quietus on the
popular movement to make Roose-
welt President in spite of his repeat
ed declarations to the contrary
Thursday, the President put this
movement to rest by issuing re-
statement of the declaration he
made the night after his last cleo
ton which contains this sentence:
II appreciate to the full the
solemn responsibility this conf
dence imposes upon me, and |
shall do all that in my power lies
not to forfeit it. On the fourth
Of March next | shall have
served three and half years,
and this three and a half years
constitutes my first term. The
wise custom which limits the
president to two terms regards
the substance and not the form,
and under no circumstances will
| be candidate for or accept
another nomination.
To this reinstatement he added, Il
have not changed and shall not
change the decision thus announced.
This final and emphatic declara-
ton will be read with regret by
millions of President Rooseyelt's en-
thusiastic admirers, but we believe
the judgment of history will be that
the President did nothing more than
his duty as an honest man and the
first citizen of this republic. If
Washington had yielded to the So
licitatlons of his personal friends
and allowed them to announce his
candidacy for third denomination,
we submit that he would have gained
nothing for the country he loved
nor for his reputation. The Presi-
dent is dead right in his assertion
that the custom which regards the
