Can 1t Be Possible?
| A home for habitual drunkards is
to be built in Maine. Will the prohi-
bltlonists kindly explain how it is that
there can be such thing as an
habitual drunkard in Maine?-

What's the Odds?
OF course the pork barrel appropri-
alton violated the constitution, but
what's the odds, we need the roads.
A little matter like the constitution
ought not to stand between the people
and the mud.-Rush City Post.
We Hope So.
A rich st. Paul youth was sent to
the workhouse five days for too fast
driving and the press is greatly ex-

Gossipers Are Trouble Breeders.
II there is any one thing on earth
that can create more strife, hard feel
lngs and downright misery to the
square inch than any one other thing
or being in the whole world, it is one
good healthy gossiping tongue with
a huctuating regard for the truth.

followed the chinooks which melted

to Canada and take your chances.

Keep Away From Western Cities.
An Owatonna man who went to
Seattle some time ago recently re-
turned thoroughly disguised with the
whole country. he says there is abb
solutely no show there for the man
without money and that the streets of
Seattle, Spokane, Portland and other
western cities are filled with the great
army of the unemployed. His advice
to young men who are just now filled
with desire to 60 west is to get into
some sort of business in their home
town, for the west is being flooded
with men seeking to get rich quick.
Minnesota is pretty good state after
|an.-Owatonna Tribune.
The Consumer Pays the Taxes.
This blatant talk about "substan-
tial taxpayers, - "heavy taxpayers,
ETC., as being the whole thing in any
community makes US tired. It is the
big mass of common everyday con-
sumers that constitute the. real tax
payers in fact pay all the taxes,
whether they own any property or
not. The merchant, the manufac-
turer, the banker or the professional
man who is taxed for his stocks or
holdings, includes his taxes, as we'll
as his rents and interests on invest
ments in his charges for what he has
to sell or dispose of, and the buyers
who pay the price are the ones who
do the actual paying of the taxes.
