FRIDAY, AUGUST II, 1911.

One of the greatest arguments for
peace that was ever offered is now
being presented in the Photographic
History of the Civil War; now be-
ing published by the Review of Re-
views Co. Among the thousands of
photographs. one finds occasionally
pictures of hospitals, or battlefelds
with the dead and wounded lying
about, or even of a solitary dead
soldier for whom the war is ended.
At this distance it all seems to have
been so unnecessary that such terrible
sacrifices should have been made SIM
ply to settle the slavery question.
which the rest of the civilized world
had previously outgrown. An old
soldier in looking over the pictures
remarked recently, "Well, war is
just legalized murder, anyway

THE NEW CONGRESSMAN.

Minnesota is to have another con-
gressman, and unless the legislature
meets before the next general elec-
tion and re-apportions the congression-
al districts the new man will have to
be elected at large. Several prominent
men have already been mentioned for
the place, but as it so often the case,
some of the mare not eligible and others
are not available. The man nomin-
ated must be a progressive in order to
be elected in the state at large over
his Democratic opponent. and he must
be man who stands we'll thruout the
entire state. Much would also be
gained by nominating a resident of
Minneapolis. That city has more than
enough population for one and not
enough for two representatives. The
fairest way therefore would be to
elect a resident of Minneapolis to re-
present the state. Among the eligi-
BILE and available Republicans of Min
neapolis, none would make better
campaign or more creditably repre-
sent the state than w. I. Nolan,
leader of the progressive wing of the
Republican party in the last leglsla-
ture, and legislator of several years
experience, and one to whom all could
give enthusiastic support.
The position of congressman-at-
large will not appeal to the ambition
of strong men if the state is to be
re-districted by the next legislature,
but if a strong man like Nolan be
elected. there may be no re-district-
ing for the present. The present dis
tricts are generally satisfactory, and
if an attempt were made to cut up
the state into ten districts, the pro-
blem becomes knotty one. The only
solution is for part of Minneapolis
to be Joined with some surrounding
counties into district, and first and
last this would present many difficult
ties. The plan here proposed would
give Minnesota it's additional congress-
man and would assure the state of an
other progressive congressman.

YOUR BUSINESS.

One of the first questions when you
meet stranger is, "What is your
business?' You take it for granted
that he has business. Let every
young man in our town ask himself.
"What is your business?'' If you
have none, why is it? If you have none
how do you live? Who buys your
meals? Who buys your clothes? :?
Who furnishes you with spending
money? What is your ambition? ?
What do you occupy your time with?
Are you assisting the family in carry
ing it's burdens? In a beehive the
ones that do nothing are called drones.
The working bees kill them off. They
have no business. If you have no
business you are drone. Your idle
ness and inertia will surely be your
undoing. You will be the victim of
your own folly. You will suffer.
Your mind will grow sluggish, your
muscles will become habby. You
will become disgusted with yourself.
You will cause people to become dis
gusted with you. You will be of alb
solutely no use to humanity. You
had better have been a dumb animal.
Get the habit of having a bus ness.
You will gain your own selfrespect
and the respect of your fellowmen. -

Democratic Leadership in Con-
greSS.

In equipment for debate, the Re-
publicans of the House are now out
classed. They lack the clear-headed
Tawney, the polished Boutell, the
eloquent Lands. the convincing Over
street, and the rough and tumble
Grosvenor, greatest partisan champion
of them all. Mann, we'll qualified.
and the redoubtable Uncle Joe remain
to fight the party's battles on the
floor. but they have found a dozen
combatants equal to any fray.
The Senate, still Republican by a
feeble, uncertain majority, has not
given the Democrats of that body
equal opportunity for development.
Their talents for legislation and abil-
ity for constructive work, if they
possess any, are obscured by the coali-
tion with the Republican Progressives,
which has put LaFollette. Borah, and
Cummins into the limelight. Of the
new Democratic Senators, Kern of
Indiana. Bryan's running mate in the
last national campaign. has given
evidence of capacity and is counted
upon to become a real factor, after
experience at Washington. In the
matter of discipline, the Democratic
majority of the House has challenged
admiration. 1t has not been equalled
in many years. Bailey and Williams
failed as leaders of the minority
Clark had better success and was re-
warded by election to the Speaker
ship. Underwood's leadership of the
Democratic majority has been mark
edly successful and his colleagues on
the other side of the chamber are
quite generous IN their recognition of
the fact.
"Believing in government by par
ties.' said a North Dakota Repre-
sentative, 81 am heartily pleased to
see the perfect organization and ad-
mirable discipline which Speaker
Clark and Chairman Underwood have
brought about and are to-day enforc-
ing. They are setting an example
to the Republicans who must profit by
it, if they would ever regain control
of the House. We have had no such
organization since the passage of the

Let it be our task to see to it that at

unrighteousness, so that our brothers

science leave the rest to Him. -

There is more or less discussion OF
the effectiveness of the several kinds

debate whatever on the proposition
that all of them, from the hens to the
horses, should be provided with a
generous supply of clean drinking wa

OLD COIN FOUND.

An English penny, coined in
1887, two years after Queen Vic
toria ascended the throne of
England, was found at Vancouver
Washington the other day by
workmen who were tearing up an
old wooden sidewalk, which has
been laid so long that no one
seem to recall the time.
The old coin, covered with the
accumulations of several decades,
when cleaned with acid, showed
the profile of Queen Victoria as u
young girl.
The English were here when
the Hudson's Bay Company was
in control, and il is probable that
the penny was brought across
the ocean and around the Horn
in the pocket Of a British officer
and lost, in what was then the
Western wilderness. The Eng
lish surrendered this post in 1876.

the best equipped department with

The department at present Is equip
ped with a modern auto fire truck
and chemical engine, Two hose and

chiefs buggy and other equipment
There is a growing need for an upto
date hook and ladder truck, and above
all a Gamewell fire alarm system
This latter addition to the fire fighting
facilities of the city will cost approyi-
mately $4,000, but IT is worth the
money as many have expressed when
noting the mistakes made in giving
directions as to where the fire u.s. as
is often done by the present system

There has been an epidemic OF

made an analysis and reported that
there was only one well in the num-

Of the other four he stated that they
were positively dangerous and advised
that they be filed up.
DR.. Brownie advises that all wells
he cleaned at least twice a year, and
the county health officer, DR.. Walter
Hardy of this city, requests to state
that he will make an examination OF
