Some of the lessons that some of the
newspapers find in President Taft's
speeches reach the sublimely ridicul-
GUS. TO most people-to the fair and
sane-Mr. Taft's utterances are
straightforward, manly, brave and
moderate, always carrying the i'm.
preston that he realizes that he is
the president of all the people and a
purpose to resist being Influenced by
the interests or issues of any particu.
lar section Of the country. It re.
quires big man to take this attitude
and maintain it, and the man who at.
tempts it must expect to have his
motives questioned and to suffer
abuse from those who are too narrow
and too selfish to take this broad
view of things. One relieving feature
of the situation is that such newspa.
pers carry but small influence and
will not seriously affect the view OF
the people who may he generally
trusted to sift even the words of a
president and arrive at an intelligent
view of public questions.

All are busy with their routine
work, and therefore news items are
very scarce.
Rev. G. Wahlund from southern
Minnesota, a member of the State
Board of Visitor of Public Institutions
called at the college this week. He
had a good impressio nof Warren and
vicinity before he came; but after he
had seen our city, he liked it still
more. ....
An electric clock has been added to
the school equipment. It automatical
ly rings the electric bells for each
class during the day. Since it was
made at school, it is somewhat crude;
but it serves the purpose. ~
A splendid letter press has been
loaned to the school by the Peoples
Trading Co. We certainly appreciate
the kindness very much.

Stockholm, Sweden.-The arbitra.
ton undertaken by the Swedish gov
eminent to settle the dispute between
the employers union and the confed.
Grafton of labor, has failed chiefly on
account Of the proposal to. settle fu-
ture disputes by arbitration. A re-
newal of the general strike is conse-
quently feared. In any event the
postponement of the resumption of
work will entail great suffering on
the $4,000 men still idle.
Hans Anderson of Skifarp. a prom.
inent business man, says about the
great strike and Its results: "The
most important lesson which I think
the great strike has taught us is,
that the authorities and the common
citizens Of the kingdom, by calmness
and united determination to main.
tain order and to keep the ordinary
functions of society in regular opera
ton, can prevent the success of q
national strike, so that no one needs
to fear the threats Of such a strike
in the future. It has also shown us
how the imperious but irresponsible
leaders of our workingmen miserably
go from country to country, begging
for aid to support the workingmen In.
stead Of joining these and proudly
making an honest living. And finally
it teaches that agreements without
legal force are virtually useless, and
that laws must be passed for putting
our Industrial life on safe and sound
footing"
