He'll Get Used to II.

The editor of the Bear River
Journal, who is not as old at the
business as some of the boys, gives
space in his last issue of a threat
made by a saloon man in the settle
ment that he would "shoot him be-
fore he had time to get out another
paper"
The name of the dangerous man
ia Burnell, but inasmuch as the
editor lived to get out another
issue, which contained an apology
from the said Burnell for having
inflicted saloon upon the people
of the settlement, we believe the
editorial life is still a safe life in
surance investment.
Bro. Hayden will get used to such
threats in the course of time, and
do like all of the frontier scribes-
insure his life for enough 80 that
he is worth more dead than alive
and letter go at that.

Room for Thousands.

Northern Minnesota is a land of
promise, of almost limitless ref
sources and unreasonable posi-
bilities. Its future greatness is as
sured. There is no guesswork
around it's development.
There is no drawback attached to
its industrial growth and expan-
sion, and above all it has the max
ings of the finest dairy country in
the United States if not in the world.
1t is destined to become the great
agricultural center of the northwest.
Those who have never visited that
vast domain which lies north, north
east and northwest of the Twin Cit
les have no appreciation of the i'm
mense amount of wealth that must
come from the bowels of the earth,
the timber, and the soil the produc-
tiveness of which is a surprise to
those who have investigated crop
conditions. There is room in that
north country for thousands upon
thousands of people, and the day is
not far distant when immigration
will move swiftly in that direction
and the land will be made to Bios
som as the rose. There is riches tor

Riddle of the Middle Class.

But the middle class, who are
both traders and producers, who
are both exploiters and the victims
of exploitation-these men have
economic interests both with the
exploiters and with the exploited.
They cannot follow their economic
interests in both directions. They
must elect to 60 one way or the
other. AS class they are poorly
informed in economic principles,
deeply moved by their prejudices,
insanely jealous to be counted as
business men and 80 to be ranked
with the class of the exploiters.
All of these considerations would
naturally lead them to do as a great
ma jority of them are doing-that is,
act with the trust corporations and
employers leagues in their attacks
upon the workers and hence in op-
position to the masses of working
class economic interests. But it is
also true that many wage workers
are affected by their prejudices and
are Influenced by their masters to
act, both in the economic field and
in the political field, directly against
their own economic interests, and
the wage worker does 80 with no
economic interest whatever in CON-
!, ~: q.
Of the about Is per cent which
falls to the middle class in the elias.
sification adopted above, only the
smallest percentage of them gain
as much by being exploiters as
they are losing by being exploited
and hence only the smallest share
of this Is per cent of the people
would side with the millionaire
after informing themselves as to
the economic possibilities of their
| class.
United labor organization can
make no appeal to anyone or to any
class except to those who are the
victims of exploitation and whose
interest. as victims of the exploiters
are greater than any possible ad
vantage which can come to them as
the fruits of exploitation. United
labor organization makes it's ap
peal to working class interests only
/, it declares war in moral way
against all of their exploiters, great
and small, and naturally depends
for it's support alone upon that vast
majority of the whole population
who are the producers of all wealth

Sears, living in Arkansas, was riding
her pony along a highway when he
SHE'D at a cow and she was thrown
to the ground and suffered a broken
arm. 1t was a mile to the nearest
house, and the girl was not able to
mount again and in too much pain to
walk
The pony seemed to understand this
after time, and he galloped away
and reached the house Of a planter
ana kept up whinnying until he was
taken notice Of and man sent to fol-
low him back to where the girl was
found. 1t was plain that the intelli-
gent animal knew that something out
of the usual had happened, and in this
case just as good messenger as a
boy would have been.

The best kite Of this kind that can

wealthy kite fighters pay as much as a

make a kite which will be unconquer-

Kite fighters are most careful about
the balance of their kites, and when a
kite seems all right in the hand, their
intent eyes notice fault as it flies,
and, pulling it down again, they add
a piece of paper the size Of postage

one side, or they pare one of the

It Is a Real Craze and Gambling Is a
Feature of Sport.

India knows nothing Of flying kites
for pleasure, as is done in America
and Europe, and is carried on with
marvellous ingenuity in China Kites
are flown there that they may fight,
and the fighting is done by cutting
each others strings.
The string is sewing thread, the
finest and strongest. smeared with
ground glass mixed with mucilage.
Pulled tight and drawn against an
other thread, also pulled tight, it cuts
like a knife
A good string must be long enough
to let the kite ascend a thousand
yards light enough to let the kite bear
it at that height, and fine enough to
cut another string
Making a kite requires as much care
as choosing the string, says the cor
respondent of the New York World.
The kite has to sweep through the air
with the swiftness of a swallow There
fore it must be small, extremely light
and strong enough not to tear as it
rushes against the wind; for be edges
are not turned over and gummed down
all around, as they are in our kites.
IN such kite the balancing is far
more delicate operation than in large
