"Payneful' Surprise.
When the Payne tariff bill is passed
it will prove a painful surprise to
those republicans who expected a
square deal in the way of tariff re-
vision.-Perham Enterprise.
Would Play Havoc With Little Fellows.
The tonnage tax would not seriously
discommode the steel trust but it
would play hob with US little fellows.
This is proven by the fact that every
newspaper on the range opposes the
measure, in spite of the fact that these
same newspapers are ignored by the
steel corporation. Times.

Unjust Discrimination.
The postal department. is getting
some mighty hard raps in the matter
of furnishing printed envelopes to the
people at less than cost. If the pos
tai department wishes to be truly pa
ternal why does it not supply corsets
and breakfast foods to misshapen
and hungry populace?- Ortonville

A Wise Move.
The two papers at Akeley have
consolidated, Editor Scheers of the
Tribune taking over the plant of the
Herald. The move is one in the right
direction and will permit the publ1ca-
ton, of better paper and one that
will be better able to represent the
thriving metropolis of Hubbard
county. Long Prairie Leader.
Many Things Might Happen.
Is it not rubbing it in slightly for
the republican senator's and represent
tatives in March, 1909, to gather
about the banquet table and nominate
the republican candidate for governor
for the election in 1910? So many, oh
so many things might happen. Even
the people might take the question in
hand and solve it to their own liking.

How to Ruin Your Children,
Children have as much right to be
we'll trained as to be we'll born. Yet
with many parents the idea of such
training is limited to year or two of
schooling, while their moral welfare is
not regarded in the least. To allow
children full license to run the streets
at all hours and form all kinds of as
sociations is one of the surest ways of
running them.-Badger Herald-Rust-

OIapp ana the Iar1H Bill.
Senator Clapp is credited with the
statement that "The more I get into
the Clarity bill the less I know about
it.. - That being the case it is time the
junior senator folded his tent and came
home and let somebody go to the
senate who has gumption enough to
understand it. j. J. Hill gave him a
pretty good bunch the other day about
the lumber schedule. St. Paul

Farmers Alive to Their Interests.
The farmers of Haven township,
Sherburne county, have decided to
buy two carloads of Burbank and
Early Ohio potatoes for planting this
spring. They seem to have dis
covered at last that to create a potato
market that straight varieties must be
produced. It would be we'll for Nor
rison county farmers to wake up to
the necessity of producing what the
consuming public want. The custom
of planting several varieties in one
hill is rapidly becoming obsolete,
and tubers of mixed varieties always
bring the lowest price It costs no
more to raise the best, while the diff
ference in price received will pay the
whole expense of cultivation. Little
