THE Democratic and half Demo
cratic papers of the state do not
relish the idea of Republican
governor for Minnesota. We will
admit that the late Governor John
son was all excellent executive and
could have held the position as
long as he desired with strong
chances of being the standard
bearer OH one of the national tickets
but what is the matter with the
present governor? Eberhart IS a
gifted man of the people and a
credit to the strife and the Repub-
lican party, the logical man for
the place.

EXPENSIVE SENATORS

Two weeks ago, III an editorial
which appeared in The Leader.
the editor advocated the con-
solidation of the several navy-yards,
holding that four were sufficient for
all practical requil ements, two on
the Atlantic coast and two on the
Pacific coast. Since the editorial
appeared, it has been learned that
the several navy-yards cost the gov
eminent $40, 900, 900 annually, more
than they ought, and that yards are
maintained in states to merely please
the whims of the senators from the
states benefited and make lucrative
places for their political friends and
that the cost of labor and mainten-
ance is many times greater than the
value of the work done on our fight
ing ships. Also, that at number
of the navyyards, no commander OF
vessel would dare to take their YES
sci in for fear of never getting them
out again. The appropriation for the
navy could ba reduced a half without
injury to the efficiency and money
be saved.

THOUGHTS BY THE WAY

John Burroug his declares that, CAT
tsr a man has attained u competency,
money is superfluoIs, just like so
much fat If Mr.. Burroughs has
attained a competency, he is at lib
erty to send to the editor Of this
christian journal any surplus for which
he has no use, for he needs it in his
business. ~.
Someone has said, only men of
re tentive memories should BIZ elected
to the Legislature, otherwise they are
liable to forget what they were sent
there for 1t is quite evident that
there are quite number of members
of the present Legislature in this
state, possessed of very treacherous
memories and are not carrying out
the will Of the voters as expressed at
the primary election last September.
1t is evident, that the United States
must have more revenue to meet it's
obligations and it strikes the ordinary
Individual that it is about time to
distribute all of the burdens of taxa
ton, and in the meantime. congress
should know enough to keep its appro-
prition within the limit of the reven~
ues. The Federal Indebtedness at the
present time is 81, 1856, 900 and still it
grows and congress does not care a
continental.

THE CAPTAINS PLAN.
His Rule For Fighting Seasickness
Didn't Work Both WAYS

His Rule For Fighting Seasickness
Didn't Work Both Ways.
A young woman who recently made
g trip to Europe decided to consult
the captain of the ship as to the best
preventive for seasickness. Having
armed herself with a letter of intro
duction to the officer, she waited until
the ship had cleared Sandy Hook, says
writer in the Bohemian, and then
approached him. She described her
fears and begged for a remedy
My dear lady" replied the captain,
with an amused smile, you will not
be troubled with any illness if you will
do what | tell you. Most ladies con-
tine themselves to their Staterooms and
thereby incur the very thing they fear.
Now, if you will stay on deck, get all
the fresh air you can, walk up and
down, take good physical care of your
self and try not to think of trouble you
will never be seaSick''
The lady thanked him. She followed
the directions faithfully. and when the
ship ran into the tail end Of a heavy
northwest gale she never felt a qualm
She appeared regularly at meals and
enjoyed herself thoroughly.
AS the gale was abating she be-
thought her that it was due the cap
tain that she should thank him for his
good advice and, approaching the deck
steward, intrusted him with a messag
asking for an interview. In due time
the steward returned, saying that the
captain was unable to grant her an
Interview.
"Why not| she questioned. "Why
won't he see meF'
Captains compliments, MISS" said
the steward, ''but he's suffering with a
bit of seasickness which as lasted
two days now, an he amt in shape to
talk to YOU"

The ingenuity of the Chinese in de-
vising punishment for offenders sur
passes that of the most cruel people of
the middle ages. Some time ago a boy
was kidnapped from village about
thirty miles from Chinkiang and
brought to that city to be sold. The
kidnapers were arrested and returned
to the village, where the people dug a
hole in the ground, like a grave, about
three feet deep, covered the bottom
and sides with unslaked lime, placed
the offender, with his hands and feet
tied, upon the lime and covered his
body with the same material. Then
they filed the hole full of water, and
as the lime Stacked he was roasted
alive and his body consumed.
