ORIGIN OF MAY DAY CUSTOM
Old Roman Feast of Floralia-Pe.
culiar Methods of Celebrating
In Former Times.

The actual origin of the May day
custom appears to have been the old
Roman Floralia, celebrated on April
20 and instituted in Rome 241 B. G.
on account of season when the har-
vest was very poor. In the mediae-
val May festival an important fea-
ture was nocturnal expedition to
the forest, whence branches were
gathered and fastened to the doors
of many homes by neighbors as an
evidence of good wishes and loyalty.
The first of May throughout Great
Britain and to a lesser extent in
France and Germany was formerly
celebrated with festivities, which
still have their local but much at
tenuated spirit. From the many
diverse ways in celebrating the al
most obsolete custom at Brightwal-
ton, Berkshire, where the Virgin and
Child, in the guise of the May queen
with a doll in a basket, are borne
around the parish, may come the
custom obtaining in parts of New
England, where the children are
wont to fill baskets with flowers for
the homes.
The baskets are sometimes tied to
doors and left, the givers hurrying
away SO as to avoid discovery.
In Sweden May day is still cele-
brated in ways strangely similar to
the ancient Roman custom.

1t sounds like older and not better
times to hear of orders for the pursuit
of pirates. The British ship Rowan
moore reported that she was attacked
by piratical schooner in Bahaman
waters, and the United States govern
ment has directed that the revenue
cutter Window shall proceed from Gal
weston to the Bahamas in search of the
rover of the seas. Other cutters will
join the Window and, adds the dis
patch. "for the first time in many
years American armed vessels will
search for pirates" This smacks more
of the times of the buccaneers and the
black flag with skull and crossbones
flung out by sailing vessels directed by
skillful though wicked navigators than
of the days of steam, wireless teleg-
raphy and other modern improve
ments. But a fleet of modern revenue
cutters would make short work of any
pirate craft that offered resistance.

THE Bar Association of the
Eleventh Judicial District, at a
meeting held in Duluth Tuesday
unanimously endorsed Judge
Homer B. Dibell for the Supreme
bench to succeed Judge Charles l..
Lewis. While the Bar Association
numbering nearly every attorney
in the District, stand as sponsors
for the candidacy of Judge Dibell,
we do not think there is a man in
the district that will raise a dissent
ing voice. The Judge is recogniz-
ed as a most able jurist and in all
his dealings during his long term
on the district bench has always
proven himself a man in whose
veins flowed good, rich, red blood.

Court, Homer B. Dibell.

IF northern Minnesota is to
accomplish what she wants to III
those Benidji resolutions, the
lieutenant Covernorship is one of
the offices she should look to
closely. The senate committees
will have lot to say about REAP

good roads, etc, and these COM
mittees in the senate are selected
by the lieutenant governor. 1t

handle that Office next session, mo

The Breeze has the situation
sized up about right. What we
want is man broad enough to
recognizeno imaginary line between
northern and southern Minnesota.
A man not smeared with the anti
Northern Minnesota" stick and
whose conception of his individual
Importance does not lay in the
shade the spirit of fair play to all
of Minnesota. We want a man
pledged to re-apportionment and
Just taxation for all. AS there are
about a dozen who are perfectly
willing to be lieutenant governor,
the selection of the proper party
will be hard one.

Philadelphia reports fatality which
proves that care is highly necessary in
the inspection of live stock destined
for slaughter. A meat cutter in a re-
tail establishment was taken to one
OF the city hospitals while suffering
from a mysterious disease. He told
the physicians that while he was cut
ting up meat splinter of bone few
against his lips and caused an abra.
sion. Soon his lip began to swell, and
as the swelling refused to yield to
treatment he applied for admission to
a hospital, where he eventually died
after much suffering. An inquest and
post norton was held, and after hear
ing the report of the surgeons who
examined the victims body, the coro-
ner rendered verdict that death was
due to infection with anthrax, which is
commonly known as the foot and
mouth disease.

The little republic of Costa RIGA Is
ordinarily the most peaceful of the
Central American countries and tries
to get along with the neighbors with
out trouble. But the invasion of Costa
Rica by force of troops from Nicara-
qua may spell little excitement
down that way. Presumably the Mica
raguan soldiers are in pursuit of in
surgents who have taken refuge in
Honduras, but that is no way to .reat
a friendly nation, and naturally Costa
RIGA will demand an explanation.

If man doesn't love his work, he
would better get something else to do
But the trouble is that such people
will hardly love any kind of work The
trouble is in them. They lack intelli-
gence. If they knew enough to know
good work they would soon learn to
love 1t. The manual training scheme
has this in view-to surround the job
a man is doing with such intelligence
and taste as will make it attractive to
him. "The man who is in love with
his job gets more contentment out of
life than any other" says Brander
Matthew'S; and he gets great part of
his contentment in doing his work
right. No man can love his work who
sh.rks. No man can be contented who
Is dishonest about hic work. This is
Sinking or doing it negligently. So
these things always go together-hon-
est work, contentment and love of the
job.

THE Democratic press, assisted
by several so-called independents,
are having a serious time trying to
nominate for governor of this great
state for the Republicans. One of
them even goes so far as to state
that while everyone is predicting
the nomination of Governor Eber-
hart to succeed himself, none are
predicting his election and them
goes on to state that John Lind
will be the popular candidate.
Now, the MINER firmly believes
that Governor Eberhart will not
only be nominated but will be
elected by a handsome majority.
Besides, all indications point to
the fact that John Lind is not so
keen to get into the game and that
Notwithstanding all the Lind pala-
yer now being dished up as news,
he may not be the Democratic
candidate. Supposing he is, what
of it. And if the Demo-Pop out
fit do not nominate John Lind, who
in-will they nominate? Accord
ing to their own statements, he is
the only man in the party in Min
nesota capable of being governor
or anything else. If you don't
believe this, read their papers.
