lows the distinction of being the only
man in Congress who has entertain
ed tie President at his own house
during the period that Mr. Taft has
been president. Etiquette is sup
posed TO prescribe that President

residences during his term. President
Roosevelt broke that RUE. 1here
was considerable surprise, however,
when President Taft accepted an i'll
vitation to dinner at Senator New
lands residence at Woodley. just
outside the city of Washington. The
Senator has been free, although cour-
teous. in his criticism of the Presi-

him on many questions OF Governs

A "boys' city, will be established
at Pine lake. Mich, this summer and
it is expected that more than a
thousand boys from twenty states will
be in attendance. It will be a tented
city and the boys will, under instruc-
tions from Judge Brown of Salt Lake
City, the benefactor,, and others, or
ganize a common council, courts,
political parties; hold elections, and
conduct a newspaper, a bank and a
grocery. Hence, in addition to giving
the boys outdoor recreation, they will
be instructed in business methods and
civics:x The plan appeals to US as
being q highly n1eritorieus pne worthy
of being followed in other states.

From all points of the compass
come complaints that congress is
dilatory in its work on the tariff bill!
that the bill should ere this have
been in some way disposed of. It
must be remembered, however, that
tariff revision Isl an important and
Weightys undertaking-an undertake
ing which requires careful considera-
tion-and that to railroad the bill
through congress would probably
mean business disaster to the country
at large. The bill, President Taft be-
lieves, will be in his hands not later
than June 20, and that it will be a
measure which will Warrant his sigma
.ture-a measure meeting the require
ments of the people.

upon the new cement walk being laid

cement. The cord protecting such
walk appeared to have been deliber-
ately cut for the express purpose OF
obtaining access to the walk and
maliciously damaging the same.

+ An inoffensive old colored lady,
a Mrs. Jackson, has caused COM
motion in the aristocratic Crocus Hill
neighborhood, St. Paul. The pure
lilly whites object to her presence in
their midst. Several indignation
meetings have been held and COM
mittees galore have been appointed to
notify Mrs. Jackson to vacate the
premises she occupies. The idea of
an off-color lady taking up her abode
on Crocus Hill has caused the blue
blood in the veins of the lilly white
denizens to warm up to the boiling
pitch.

Anxious to learn more of the inner
life of darkest London, Eva Booth.
commander of the Salvation army in
America, dressed herself in rags and
rented an attic in the foulest part of
the slums. There she lived for MANY
a month, visiting the dens of crime,
shame and poverty and entering
abodes of thieves where even the
police we're afraid to 60. Her aim in
doing this, it is needless to say, was
a humanitarian one-to study the
situation with a view of lettering, if
possible, the existing conditions.
Where is there woman more deserv-
ing of praise than Eva Booth?

ANTIQUITY of Dentistrv

Many persons will be surprised to
learn that false teeth, gold caps and
filings and bridges are by no means
modern creations. Six hundred
years ago and probably long before
the dawn of Greek civilization, the
skill of the dentist had reached high
degree of perfection. Many people
will also be surprised to learn that

Aroused by public sentiment the
Japanese government is leaving no
stone unturned to round up the
grafters involved in the so-called
"sugar scandal" Twenty members
of parliament and six directors of the
sugar company have already been
arrested and cast into prison and it is
expected that more will be rounded
up. Graft is an art which has not
long been practiced in Japan-an art
learned from Americans-and the
government is determined to stamp it
out before it obtains a strong foot
hold.

From business viewpoint the con-
solidation of the St. Paul Dispatch
and the Pioneer Press under one
management may be a good thing,
but it leaves the capital of the state
without a republican daily newspaper.
The old Pioneer Press was always
reliably republican but hereafter it
will be conducted as an Independent
newspaper. W. B. Webster, formerly
chairman of the republican county
committee of Ramsey county, voices
the sentiments OF a great many re-
publicans when he says:
''It is with sorrow that I note the
passing of the one distinctively re-
publican paper in Minnesota, the
Pioneer Press, and it's entrance into
the so-called independent field as the
morning edition of the Dispach.
Both the paper and the principles it
has advocated are stamped indelibly
on a half century Of progress and
commercial growth in Minnesota and
the great Northwest and its suppress
sion now in republican way, which
I am told is to be done, does not
appeal to me. I believe in the re-
publican party and its principles, and
those who follow the latter cannot go
far wrong"

Mehmed V, the new sultan of Tur-

reliable than those of his predecessor,
who was one of the most abominable
prevaricators on this terrestrial
sphere.

Rev. W. E. Thompson, pastor of the
Wesley Methodist church, Winona: has
served notice upon the Ladies' Aid
society that he will not accept money
raised by giving suppers and ice
cream socials in payment of his
salary. The reverend gentleman
says the method is wrong in principle
and contrary to the teaching of the
good book. It can scarcely be pos
sible that Rev. Thompson is ignorant
of the fact that we're it not for the
money obtained by ladies' societies

have denounced him, as failure in
