St. Paul Dispatch: Why the adju-

term of Office is one of those things no
!, fellow can find out.
Philadelphia Inquirer. j. j. Hill
wants us to return to the soil. If we
all had made 1925, 100000 recently we
might at least buy farms and sit on the
porch and watch the hired men play.
Pine City Pioneer: A Detroit ply
sician has discovered that he can re-
vive the dead. A lot of delinquent
subscribers to newspapers and anti
advertisers are in need of his treatment.
Redwood Gazette: Perhaps Billy
Sunday had nothing to do with the
case, but the fact chat Wurthington
went no-license to the tune of AZ ma
jority the past week is mighty sugges-
tive.
Minneapolis Tribune: A peanut
stand took fire OH the corner of Third
and Wabasha streets in st. Paul on
Sunday and burned to the ground, and
the old town hasn't yet recovered from
the excitement ~"
Toledo Blade: A Missouri woman is
suing an editor because he said in an
obituary that her husband had gone to
a happier home. 1t never pays for an
editor to say what he thinks when
writing an obituary.
Anoka Union: Sam Langum is
earning his salary in his attempt to de-
fend Senators from attacks of the un-
godly. These senators we're elected by
the people and il they fail in protect
ing their interests deserve censure and
criticism.
Wells Forum Advocate: The legis-
lature is making record for itself.
It is handing the state .'lemon." :"
Probably not in twenty years has this
state seen anything Just like it-and let
us pray that it will be twenty years
before we see another.

Major Nicholson OF Austin, in the pre-
paration for the annual inspection
which comes next week. He coached
the boys up in regard to annual inspec-

Caledonia Journal 1t is an incon-
troyertible fact that the consensus of
opinion of large majority of the
thinking people of the state is that the
enactment OF a few necessary, fair reas-
enable and unambiguOus laws would
be far more beneficial to the State at
large than thousand laws of little or
questionable value to anybody but a
few directly interested.
Albert Lea Tribune: Nothing very
bad has been allOwed to become laws
by the present legislature nor anything
good, for that matter Somebody must
get very busy soon or the members
will go home in disgrace and they will
expect thes newspapers of the state to
make explanations the next year or
two and some Of them will do as de-
sired, while others will not.
Fairmont Independent: Some of
the country members in the legislature
have forgotten that they have consti-
tuents. For the present they are shin
ing in the arc light cast around them
by the influences, antagonistic to the

limited to. the use Of a tallow dip when
their term of office expires.

Grand Meadow was the happiest man
in the house Thursday. The endorse

come back to the house for conirma-

sage there. When sent to the senate,
only one negative vote was registered
in the house.

controlled, for an uncontrolled monop-

nuisance as day is to turn into night.
If the Pullman company is able to up
hold it's contention that it is immune
from federal control, there is ample
remedy at hand. That is to compel the
railroads, which are admittedly subject
TO government control, to furnish the
service M they now let the Pullman com
