Human Selfshness Exemplifed.
There are quite a few people in Min
nesota, it seems, who are tariff re-
formers on many things, but stout
protectionists on barley.-St. Paul
Dispatch.

Wrong In Principle.
The lawyers claim that the tonnage
tax bill for iron ore is unconstitu-
tlonal. It may be, we hope it is for
1t is wrong in principle, and locally
unjust. Rush City Post
Didn't Stand Much Chance.
Ihe reapportionment bill stood
about as much chance in the senate
as the lamb in that old story of her
famous but futile argument with the
wolf about who muddied the water
st. Paul Dispatch.
lax 'Enl: Iney Have No Friends.
The city Of Duluth has three daily
papers that are paying good divi-
dends to the owners, and they are bet
ter papers than those of the twin
cities. Why not pass law levying
a tonnage tax on them?-Grand Rap
ids Review. :.
Complimen tary To Frank.
Frank 7. White of Elk River has a
refreshing way of doing things and
his work in the legislature is fruitful
OF results. He is a great credit to
this district and fully merits the con-
fdence reposed in him by the people.

plishes more for the advertiser than a.
big ad smeared over the whole front
page of a poorly printed, uninterest-
ing paper.-Walker Pilot.

Anent Squeezing.
1t is said that ga man who squeezes

Entirely Appropriate.
1t seems entirely appropriate that
the first objection raised by the people
OF Minnesota against the proposed
new tariff measure should come from
the big democratic county of the state.
The people of the city of St. Cloud
and surrounding country are making
big noise about the proposed reduc-
tion of the tariff on granite. te.-Paynes-
vile Press.
Others Know Something, Too.
NO man ever got rich trying to make
others believe he was "The only" or
the only one who knew anything.
You cannot climb the ladder of sue
cess by treading on others corns.
Keep off the corns and don't knock.
You're not the only. There are others.
and they have brains, and know
something as we'll as you do.-Arling-

Forages With Dire Results.
A real, live bear was killed in Min
neapolis the other day. It was seen
wandering along the river and being
pursued, took refuge under freight

winter fast and got a whiff of that
packing plant smell the St. Paul
papers have been talking about and
started to look it up with dire results.

Have 1t In For Northeastern Minnesota
By very close margin the Bjorge
