Advance copies of Bryan's new
book descriptive Of his travels,
The Old World and It's Ways" are
getting into circulation and are not
likely to do any harm to the candi-
dacy of the distinguished author.
The account is not only interesting
and educational, but shows that
Bryan is sympathetic and hopeful in
his views of the peoples whom he
has visited. In discussing Japan
and its people, Mr.. Bryan takes the
ground that Japan is almost COM

immigration Commissioner Geo.
Welsh made a strong plea for the
canalization of the Minnesota river
in his speech at Fairfax, his sugges-
ton being in line with that of next
Governor jacobson, who advocated
the scheme in his Shutdown speech
last month. In the course of his
address Mr.. Welsh is thus quoted:
Each year the people of Mime
sofa are paying upwards of $65, 000,-
900 for transportation. If a small
per cent of this were used for five
years in the Development of the
waterway along the Minnesota, we
would see our products, especially
our heavy products, grain and cattle
transported by that route, and our
machinery and coal returned to us
at one-quarter of the cost that we
are paying today"
The realization of the dreams of
Jacobsen and Welsh would mean
much to the people along the Mime.
sofa, but The Gazette is sceptical
about the scheme being a practical
one. But that the project is worth
the trouble of thorough investiga-
ton by expert engineers will be
pretty generally conceded. and we
expect to see at least that much
done the coming year, with the plan
backed by such influential citizens OF
the state as Jacobsen and Welsh.

Minnesota Issue: The only weak
ness in temperance reform is that
promoters are divided among them
selves, not on a question of principle,
but on question of method. Pro-
hibition partisans who ask Republi-
cans and Democrats to act indepen-
IDENTIFY of their party affiliations and
hold the moral issue of temperance
as of paramount Importance, should
themselves set the example, and
show a like independence; but the
trouble with them is, the same as
with other partisans, the party is
held in higher esteem than the
cause. At least so it seems when,
on the one hand in order to make a
point against their party opponent
they emphasize the weakness of
a house divided against itself, and
on the other hand hold out against
an organic omni-partisan movement
which is unifying the house of tenn
perance. If there is any peril in the
present situation it is that the house
of temperance divided against itself
cannot conquer.

There. appears to be peculiar fit

tet and Stewart last week, in telling
the public what they stand for.
All of the candidates announced
thus far are regarded as good men
personally, but their nomination
will largely turn on what the peo-
pie believe they stand for. A Rep

stituents and their wishes before ele-
ction swell as after.

Object to Surgery

1t may occur to many people tina,
they have never seen Chinaman be.
reft of an arm, leg or other member OF
his body. The reason for this is that
all Orientals maintain profound oh.
lection to surgical operations. Indeed
they much prefer to die rather than to
be deprived of member, because as il
is undertake that they came into the
world With two arms, two legs, eight
fingers, swo thumbs, &C., they must Of
necessity go out of it with the same
number. Otherwise, once on the other
side, they might be sent to hunt for
a missing member and spend the greater
part of IN eternity in finding it.
Perhaps the nearest approach to in
ternal surgery that Chinese doctor
will attempt is to stand on the patient s
body and with his bare feet move about
on the part afflicted. s
In dentistry the Chinese have reached
the discovery that the nerve is a worm
and the hest method to treat an aching
tooth is to loose it by driving in a
wedge in order that the worm may
escape Chicago Tribune.

The Humors of boarding

Not all the stories of boarding are
so amusing as that about the lady who
locked up bank checks which she
thought it unsafe to part with. l,
would do world of good if those who
do not know woul dtake the advice. of
those who do.
The lady with the checks ought to
know that by delaying presentation she
takes all the risks, and may both lose
the money and release her debtor. The
fact that boarding of cash may do any
harm to anybody does not occur to these
uneommereial persons.
The best stories about boarding come
from the west, some of them brought
by Mr.. Stickney, There are banks
there which have so much more money
tnan usual, several times the accustomed
ample reserve, that they are hirigin ex.
ira watchmen and bulldogs and lying
awake nights. Some country bankers
come to reserve centers where cash pay
ments have not been suspended between
banks and deposit their excess of re-
serves-a story perhaps with local
moral. One farmer drove into town and
told the worst sort of a hard-luck story
which he could imagine in support of his
application Cor loan. Being told that
he could be accommodated, he drew
large rolls of bills from his pockets
and made a deposit instead of borrow
ing. If the bank was willing to lend,
he was wiling to trust it with his
cash. If more bankers put themselves
in their depositors places, they might
be better bankers.-New York Times.

THE JUDGE ADVOCATE.
His Task Isn't Always Pleasant, But
Risks Are Small.

In the course of the other trials of a
military life, the army officer occasion
ally is brought before courtmartial
and regular assignment is made of
one officer to act as judge advocate. The
latter is supposed to look out as much
! for the interests of the accused as of
the service, and in fact his questions
are supposed to be designed to bring
out not merely one phase of the case,
but the facts, for the members of the
court to pass upon. He may, if he wish
es, color these facts in his speech in
summing up, but ordinarily he does
not.
1t is not task that most army men
relish. There is great deal of work
attaching to almost every case, involv-
ing all the ordinary work that law
yer has.
If man happens to be Judge advo-
cate before general court martial he
has a series of cases that are apt to
tire him infinitely. They range from
petty things to others more important
The eases involve vast general knowl.
edge, because cavalryman may have
to try an artilleryman, and that means
acquiring pretty complete knowledge
of the duties and customs of the ser
vice on artillery posts.
There is no particular glory or hon.
or attaching to being the judge advo
cate in court-martial If a man
wins his case it does not make him more
popular with the service. In fact, if
he loses, in the case of some man who
has been injudieious, he is apt to en-
nance his own popularity.
However, there is this to be said. If
he loses or wins, it is not like being a
lawyer. His income as soldier is
not dependent on what he does with his
cases.
Most of the men assigned to the
courts, take their. duty resignedly. It's
all matter of business, they say, and
If you're not doint that you d have to
be doing something else. SO they take
their duty as cheerfully as may be,
even if they sometimes have to try
their friends.

IMPoLITE TO THEIR WOMEN
League Of Men Formed in Paris to
Improve French Manners.

/ So rapid has been the decline in re
cent years of the Frenchman tradi
tional politeness that league has just
been formed in Paris to arrest the move
ment and to promote if possible, q
renaissance. The new organization j:
to be called "The League of Politeness
to Women The nature and the aims
of the league are explained by one
of its founders as follows:
For many years past we Frenehmen
have been losing out old reputation for
good manners. In fact, we are no long.
er as polite to ladies as are the English
or the Americans. This is evidenced
every day in a hundred little ways For
example, not once in a hundred times
will Frenchman ever think of giving
up his seat in the subway or an ON
nibus, no matter how many tired-look
ing women may be standing around
him. 1t is also a common thing in
these days Of rapid transit to see a
man elbow his way through crowd of
women to get in front of them.
Even in the best social circles.
where politeness to women should be
considered one of the essentials of good
breeding. we find men saluting women
in a much less respectful fashion than
they used to do. Nowadays a man s
greeting to a woman acquaintance is
brief and familiar--he barely condos
eends to life his hat And the pleasant
old French custom of raising one s hat
to woman passed on public staircase
is also rapidly dying out. The note of
the old order of things was a lordly
Difference. That of today is familiarity.
'Our league does not advocate a
strict return to the old forms of cere-
monious politeness, such as obtained in
our grandfathers' day. Much of that
was artificial and ridiculous. But we
do wish to keep alive-revive would be
the better woodworking of the ira
ditional French courtesy.
~ confess that our task will be diff
fcult in these days of hurry and hustle
We have not elaborated our program
yet, but there is one point that we
have decided upon. We shall post up
in all public places where impoliteness
is now unhappily notorious--in railway
and omnibus stations, in street ears
and subway cars--a small placard bear
ing this inscription: Be polite to wom-
