In Memoriam.

A policeman was entertaining some
friends to an afternoon tea. when one
of them. with an inquisitive turn of
mind. happened to see on a shelf a
glass shade. underneath which was a
brick, with some flowers upon it.
The friend. thinking they were me-
mentos of some heroic deeds or were
perhaps of some historical interest.
asked the policeman why he kept that
brick underneath the glass shade.
'1hat BRICK" replied the son of the
night. lis what had thrown at me at
the last election"
And what about the fowers?' fur

State Should Aid Our Settlers.

The chief requirement of nolthern
Minnesota now is settlers, but the
prospective settler is at once con.
fronted with the problem of roads,
or the absence of roaSs. Without
roads settlement is slow process
and in this slow process farmers who
go upon the land often become dis
couraged and give up and leave the
country, or worse still, cease to put
forth effort to succeed in farming.

should make it possible for the set

Because bankers are now enabled
to insure packages of money sent by
mail, the express companies have
largely been cut off by the banks
from the handling of their shipment
of funds. The use of dollar bills is
also becoming more popular; first,
because they are lighter and less ex-
pensive to transport and because
they are easily obtained. One COM
ing from the east, even no farther
than Chicago. notes the extensive
use of silver here. That the paper

A REAL AIR LINE.

From Chicago to Springfield is a
long trip, even as the crow, or man,
flies. To sit down in thing that
looks like an overgrown kite and
stay there until you have skipped
along through the clouds for 12O
miles is an experience to which Mr..
Brookins, so far as most folks are
concerned, is welcome.
True, a stop had to be made after
continuous flight of seventy.fve
miles, for more gasoline, but our
ponderous passenger trains usually
stop oftener than that for a tank of
water or a feed of coal.
When it gets so an aviator can
rush through the air IS miles at a
stretch, it is getting pretty close to
the time when man rightfully can
announce his conquest of the air.
The future contains wonderful
things for flying machines. Also
there will continue to be tragedies
of which the death of Chavez, who
crossed the Alps is a graphic re.

I'VE come here feeling that we

has been enacted by congress and
approved by President Taft.
The amendments to the inter-

national legislative program for the
exercise of the taxing power in con-
nection with big corporations doing
an interstate business; the appoint
ment of a commission to frame
measures to do away with the evils of
overcapitaljzation and improperand

campaign expenses; the establish
ment of the maximum and minimum
tariff provisions and the exceedingly
able negotiations of the Canadian

Herewith; the adoption of the policy
of providing for disinterested re-
