The Electoral COLLEGE.

Within the last one hundred years
the number of votes in the electoral
college has increased from 175 to 4SS.
This increase represents not only an
increase in the number of States, but
also the increase in population in the
States. When Madison was elected
President, New York cast 10 electoral
votes and Pennsylvania 20; now New
York has 80 and Pennsylvania "a. In
1908 the only States that participated
in the Presidential election besides
the original 13 wereVermont, Kentucky
Tennessee and Ohio. Up to 1882 Louis
lana, Indiana, Mississippi, Illinois, Ala
bama, Maine and Missouri had been
admitted into the union, and the in
crease in the electoral college was

Michigan, Florida, Texas, Iowa, Wis

The Cost Of Living.

The federal bureau of labor's find

ufacturing establishments, which have
Just been published, cover the year
1907 and are therefore only slightly
affected by the panic conditions which
have since become SO serious. Yet
they reveal even for last year the sin
lister spectacle Of fall in the re-
ward of labor measured by what
wages would buy.
IT is true that wages rose 81 per
cent. above 1906 and that hours Of
labor were a trifle shorter, but the
cost of living, measured by actual
purchases, rose AZ per cent. Measur-
ed in goods, pay decreased; II rent

have been considerable.
It is sadly apparent what a SINH

commendable effort has been made
to keep wages at their level, or to

A lady lived within our town,

Who, If you called her dress a gown
Would blush like peoples red.
Her mind was neither frail nor weak,
Her modesty was rare;
OF autumn trees she'd never speak
Because their limbs wene bare.
When night IT'S sable shadows threw,
Shed tumble in a swoon
If curtains didna hide from view,

Or so the story goes
BY asking, in a careless way,
To let him see her hose.

SMOKE PROOF

The feed door on this stove is guaranteed smoke
proof and does away with the escape of smoke SCOT
and gas into the house. Side feed doors used on
other stoves discharge acloud of gas and sootlad-
ened smoke into the house and scatter SCOT and
ashes over the carpet when opened.
Another point: In feeding coal into a side feed
door it has to be thrown into the stove. which
usually results in scattering much of it oversthe
floor. With our cleanly smoke proof feed door
the coal is poured into the stove to the dust
in the bottom of the hod without a particle being
spilled on the floor.
This clean and economical stove burns the gases
which often escape into the rooms with other
stoves. The annoyance and dirt from kindling
new fires is dispensed with. as the rooms are heat
ed up for two or three hours each morning with
the fuel put in the night before and the Fire Is
Never Out. COLES ORIGINAL HOT

KILLED AT HIS POST
Engineer Geo. P. Irwin Loses His Life
While Driving the OrieatdI Iimi-
ted

George P. Irwin, one of the oldest
and most experienced locomotive en-
gincers in the employ of the Great
Northern, was killed while driving his
train, the Oriental Limited, into Min
neapolis Monday afternoon. Shortly
after passing Robbinsdale the rear
brakeman noticed that the train, which
was near Minneapolis, was running at
an unusual rate of speed, disregard
ing signals near Clearwater junction
that must be paid attention to. Look
ing forward the brakeman noticed the
body of the engineer leaning from
the window with the arm hanging
Imply from the body. He immed-
lately applied the air brakes and the
train was brought to a stop. Hasten
ing forward to the cab with the con-
ductor, it was found that Engineer
Irwin had been nearly killed by being
struck by an upright Of a bridge.
The fireman, Being thrown forward
by the train stopping suddenly, had
called to the engineer and receiving
no answer, stepped over to him
and found him leaning from the win
dow with his skull crushed. The fire
man. was in the act of taking the
BODY into the cab when the conductor
and brakeman appeared upon the
scene. Tn fireman ran the train to
the city and the body was taken to
undertaking rooms. 1t is believed that
the engineer looked out of the cab
without thinking of the bridge. The
bridge was built for the old narrow
engines. The moguls that draw the
Winnipeg Flyer and the Oriental Limit
ed are much wider. ..
Engineer Irwin was We'll known and
highly respected in Sauk Centre where
he lived for some years. At that
time he ran on the Cass Lake branch.
He had been in the employ of the
Great Northern for eighteen years
and was one of the most reliable of
IT'S engineers. He leaves widow,
who resides in St. Paul, and several
children.
