It Frequently Springs From the Crew

 The tree which produces that beau ufuI and well known wood. mahogany Is one of the most elegant, If not the largest, of the country In which 1t is found and frequently grows in the Creyices of rocks. The appearance of so large a vegetable production in such 0 situation Is extremely curious and picturesque and is to be accounted for from the construction of the seed, which is like that of the thistle, winged, or capable of being borne along by the action of the air and In that manner deposited in holes and Assures In the rocks, where 1t speedily vegetates and springs up. As long as the plant remains young the place in which 1t is found Is sufficiently large for It's growth, but as 1t Increases in size the roots gradually but irresistibly force aSunder the walls of their rocky prisons and throw off large portions of stone.
 IL Is not always, however, found in these situations, the largest timber be- Ing produced in some of the flat and marshy spots on the coast of America. Such is the Honduras mahogany, which Is much looser in texture and of less value than that from the mountainous districts of Cuba and Haiti.

Consuelo, duchess of Marlborough,
wearied of courts, kings and the no.
toriety which she has attained through
her divorce, will return to America
and take refuge at the home Of her
brother, W. K. Vanderbilt. No public
sympathy should be wasted on such
women as the duchess of Marlborough
or Mrs. Castellane-wome en- whose sole
object is to obtain titles regardless of
the reputation of the men they marry
in order to accomplish such end. In

men they purchase are deep-dyed
libertines who sell their titles for the
sole purpose of recouping dissipated
fortunes.

GO THE WHOLE HOG.

Charles S. Mitchell, the editorial
writer of the Duluth Tribune, is
not a pessimist, but he takes rather a
gloomy view of the outlook for repub-
llcan success in this state next year.
He says:
The outlook today is that a blind
man could walk into d democratic
meeting and pick the next governor.
The state is surviving second John
son administration with no Indication
as to the limits of it's endurance. 1t
seems, on the contrary, to enjoy what
some might consider it's misfortunes.
Governor Johnson seems to be emf
nently satisfactory to the corporations
and the corporation-baiters, to the
steel trust and the Independent mine
owners, to the prohibitionists and the
rum-sellers, to the christians and
the heather, to the democrats and
dough-faced republicans. Why not
make his election for a third term
practically unanimous? Why not 20
all down the line and choose men of
Governor Johnson's political faith
for lieutenant governor, secretary of
state, treasurer, attorney general and
railroad commissioners? Elect DEM
ocratic Legislature to work in unison
with the governor, and nine demo-
cratic congressman should be sent to
Washington. Hearst or Bryan should
carry the state by majority equal to
Governor Johnson's. Let US be inde-
pendent and prove our independence
by voting the democratic ticket from
top to bottom.

How opinions will differ. The
Anoka Free Press thinks the state
university is unreasonable in it's de-
mands for more money from the state.
Per contra the Anoka Herald opines
that the niggardly treatment accorded
the university by the state is a shame
and disgrace. In discussing the
needs of the university the require.
ments of the state agricultural school
are overlooked. If the agricultural
school graduated a few more farmers,
buttermakers and house keepers
yearly, and the university proper
turned out few less lawyers, doctors
and preachers the state would be the
better for it.

MINING SWINDLES.

A copy of the Seattle Star received
at this Office substantiates the
U nj on's contention that the unso-
phisticated public is being swindled
to the extent of millions of dollars an
nually by wildcat mining promoters.
We extract the following from the
Stars article on this subject:
Of one thousand and ninety-three
mining companies Incorporated in
King county. Washington, but one
has ever paid a dollar in dividends.
Seventeen in Alaska and in British
Columbia have paid or are paying
dividends. The remainder, one thous-
and and seventy-6ve, have never paid
one cent to the multitude of men and
women who have been induced to pur-
chase stock therein, paying vast sums
to the promoters. The total capitalize
alton of these King county companies
amounts to the enormous sum of ST.
1913, ga, 700! If but 10 per cent of this
entire capitalization has been SUBJ
scribed there has been dumped into
the Golfers of the mining promoters
the huge sum of S139, 1864, 470! Half of
that amount of money is a sum that
staggers the conception of any one but
a Rockefeller. These millions have
been diverted from the channels of
productive industry. They are repre-
sented in most cases by abandoned
holes in the ground!

Il SQUIRE DEAL.

The State Highway Commission has
treated the northern counties fairly in
the apportionment of the road and
bridge fund. The original schedule
as prepared gave Mile Laos, Aitkin,
Carlton, Pine, Itasca, Beltrami and
other northern counties amounts rang
ing from three hundred to six or
seven hundred dollars. Under the ap-
portionment as finally made yesterday
Mile Laos county will receive $1,000,
Benton S700, Isanti $500, Sherburne
$500, Anoka $500, Carlton 81, 500, Ait
kin 1850. The total amount of the
fund for the entire state was $64,SOO.
It was largely owing to the efforts of
Commissioner J. B. Galarneault that
the original apportionment was re-
vised.

It makes one weary to read of Il

1t makes one weary to read of the
palaver INDUCED in at good roads
meetings and conventions. It takes
money and not talk to build good
roads. The first essential thing to
do is to wipe out the senseless amend
ment to the constitution adopted in
1898 (section 16, article 81. A new
amendment, leaving out all restric-
tions and authorizing the levy of a
one mill general tax, should be sub.
mitted at the next election. The 1-2C
of a mill tax and the proviso that NO
county shall receive in any year more
than three per cent or less than one.
half of one per cent is absurd.
Equally ridiculous is the provision
that in no case shall more than one.
third of the cost of constructing any
road or bridge be paid out of the state
fund.

A copy of Hon. Elmer Adams semi.
centennial bridge bill has been re-
ceived at the Union Office. It pro-
vides that the state shall issue certif-
Gates of indebtedness to the amount OF
81, 100000. Probably Mr.. Adams has
secured legal advice as to the consti-
nationality of his measure, but we fail
to see how section article of the
constitution can be gotten around.
That section provides that the state
cannot contract an Indebtedness to ex-
coed S250,00O. Sec. 16 chapter 9 OF
the Onstitution-the abortive amend
ment adopted in 1S9S-limits the
amount the legislature can levy in
any year to 1-20 of a mill.

1t is urged by some members of the
legislature who are opposed to the bill
which provides for an increase in the
salaries paid supreme and district
court judges that if a vacancy should
occur in one of the judgeships there
would be a scramble for the position
at the present salary. That is no
argument. An unworthy judge would
be dear at any price. Minnesota IS
judiciary should be composed of clear
able men, and they should receive
adequate remuneration for their serv.
ices. A salary of SIS, 900 per year TO,
a competent district judge is certainly
not exorbitant, neither is 81, 900 for a
supreme court judge unreasonable.
Furthermore, we have no hesitation ia
saying that the per diem of members
OF the legislature should be increased
100 per cent. We have heard it urged
that the services of some members of
the Legislature are not worth much to
the state. There is no sense in that
argument either. Such men should
never be chosen to enact laws.
