Yale field here today, Yale defeated
the Wesleyans by a score of 20 to 0.
Both teams showed good knowledge
of new football, while versatility Of
plays with frequent use of the for

test exciting. Each side was frequent

plays were played. A failure on the

forward pass gave Corey the ball, and
he ran fifty yards for Yale's third
touchdown.

The death of the eccentric Elder
Stewart of Minneapolis, whose mod
est looking residence in the heart of
that city, surrounded by tall office
and wholesale buildings, has been
pointed out to almost every visitor
to Minneapolis during recent years,
passed away recently at the age of
81, and his great wealth, estimated
at 100000 is likely to be used for
the alienation of the sorrows of
humanity. 100000 is left to two
institutions in Minneapolis for the
benefit of aged women and deserving
children, and aside from few mod
crate requests for relatives and 9TH
ers, the bulk Of the estate has been
left for Mr.. Stewards aged brother
to distribute to charitable objects
as he may see fit. As usual, Elder
Stewart is better appreciated after
his death thar he was during his life
time, when he was the recipient of a
great deal of harsh criticism for his
refusal to sell the roof over his head
to real estate promoters who wanted
the ground for sky-scraper.

The following story. which is cred
tied to William Jennings Bryan, is
fairly good evidence that William
Jennings is not yet a dead one, at
least: II met Texas man who
said DR.. Cook was democrat and
asked me if l didn't hope he had dis
covered the north pole. I told him
that while | could express no opinion
on the controversy between Peary
and Cook l thought as general pro-
position, that a democrat would be
more likely to discover the pole than
a republican because the democrats
have been out in the cold a long
time and are used to it.

While Minnesota has not been
largely exploited for emigrants the
past decade, the unofficial estimates
given out from the u. S. census
bureau indicate that this state has
more than held her own with its sis
ter states. Minnesota's increase is
estimated at 457, 036, which is con-
siderably more than that of both
North and South Dakota combined,
$4,000 more than the increase of
Wisconsin, nearly double the in
crease of Michigan, with Iowa out
of the running. as the census puts
Iowa down as having decreased in
population a few thousand. Kan
sas has not increased half as much
as this state, Nebraska is almost at
a standstill, and Missouri, Oklahoma
and Illinois are the only Mississippi
valley states which have made great
er gains than Minnesota, if the CEN
sus office is at all correct. The esti-
mates of increase in the states of
California, Oregon, Washington and
Montana are greatly below that of
Minnesota, and many people will be
surprised if the official returns bear
out this guess from Washington.

Minnesota valley papers continue
to exploit the plans Of the Minnesota
River Improvement & Power Co.,
the latest statement being to the eff
feet, among other things, that the
dam at Redwood Falls is to be forty
five feet high and will back the wat
er up the valley fourteen miles, ne
cessitating the expenditure of $685.
600 for fowage rights. The dam it.
self is estimated to cost $50, 900.
The dam at Lac qui Parle will be
thirty-one feet high, and it is
thought the fiowage rights, which
largely cover swampy ground, will
not cost more than SITS, 900. The
reservoir will be twelve miles long
and two or three miles wide. It is
expected the government will assist
in the construction of the impound-
ing reservoirs for the purpose of
aiding navigation on the Minnesota
and Mississippi rivers.

Madison Press: The republican
political storm center just at this
time in this state seems to be down
in the First congressional district
where the reform element Of the
party is trying to find a way of get
ting rid of Mr.. Tawney without los
ing to the democrats. Mr.. Tawney
seems to think he knows what is
good for the people down there bet
ter than they do themselves. James
7. McCleary once had that opinion
of the people of the Second district
but he found out that the voters
there did not take the same view of
the matter that he did and demo-
crat now holds the seat he once oc-
cupied in congress. Mr.. Tawney
should have taken notice before it
was too late.

The Ideal Rural School Teacher.

(Local interest in the following ex-
tract from an article in the Mime
sofa Farm Review is aroused by the
fact that the writer is Mrs. E. A.
Cedergren. a former teacher in the
schools of Redwood Falls:)
In my opinion. the rural school of
today is so important as to need the
best teacher. First Of all. we need
the teacher who is unafraid to enter
the rural school; who feels the digni-
ty of teaching in a rural community:
whose ideals look forward, not to-
ward the city graded or high school,
but toward the realization of the
ideal rural school in the ideal rural
community. We need the teacher
who is willing and unafraid to adj
vance the cause of better farming
and better housekeeping. He should
himself know, by experience, some
thing of farm life and conditions,
and have the rare quality of touch
ing everything relating to the child's
home and school life with a reverent
sympathy that makes him feel the
beauty and dignity Of his surround
lngs. Such teacher will neither

The new municipal charter for
Spokane, voted on last week, pro-
vides for the publication of an Off
cial weekly paper to throw the light
upon all city business, to publish all
notices for bids and the action upon
the same, as well as full reports of
proceedings of the council from day
to day, and statements of receipts
and expenditures on account Of city
matters. Not bad idea at all if
the law provides that all newspapers
may have access to the same mater
ial. A publication controlled by the
city officials might be the means of
misleading instead of enlightening
the taxpayer.

drive a child back to an unlovely
life of drudgery on the farm, nor
later to the city in the hope of find
ing something more congenial; he
will invest everything with interest
and build upon the child's previous
experience in such a way as to make
him see that the real education is to
make the best Of ones environment.
Such a desire awakened in the child
will lead him further to the special
schools made ready for him.
We need the teachers who are
generous of their time, unhesitating
to give freely to the children of all
ages about them. The teacher
means so much to the little country
children. tits not the teacher who
knows the most who is to be most
valuable in helping to send the
farmer boy to school; it is the teach
er who possesses a strong common
sense and the vitalizing element of
sympathy with his interests and I'M
derstanding of his needs; who can,
beginning with the first year of
school life, give the boy that which
will keep him in school past the fifth
and sixth grades. where he usually
drops out, into the seventh and
eighth, and all the time build upon
his home experience so that he will
see the immense advantage of going
to the agricultural school and col
lege for specific training to do his
future work. No teacher. ignorant
Of country life, and unwilling to
learn. has any moral right in rural
school.

welt, is good enough to be posted up

wrong thing. the worst thing of all
is to stand perfectly still. "

The next Democratic state con-
vention is to be held at Minneapolis
July %, and it is given out that
Mime won against st. Paul because
the last Democratic state convention
nominated a winner at the former
city, and that the next one wants to
nominate Minneapolis man, John
Lind, to head the state ticket. 1t is
just as we'll for the Republicans of
the state to face the music and con-
cede that with the race between
Eberhart and Lind and neither of
them committed to county option,
the advantage would be with Lind.
If either party platform stands four
square for or against option. it will
stand q better show, in our opinion.
than it wildly making an ignoble
straddle which will deceive no one.
