pers Of the state who were in favor
Of a special session saying that they
favored it on account Of the prospect
of law supplements to print, "while
those who voted against it are most
ly a small bunch of republican in
surgent or progressive papers which
hold the interests Of the state above
their own selfishness and greed"
JAG Brynildsen ought to know bet
ter than that. There is not many
papers in the list but which would
have been willing to waive their part
Of such an appropriation if the leg
islature would have gotten together
and finished up some Of those laws
which were crowded out of last ses-
sion. If the special interests had
wanted a special session it would
have been called without delay, and
don't you think otherwise.

TroIlope's Cigar Bins.

--
Trollope was a great smoker and
made no attempt to conceal the store
Of cigars in his library. One wall of
the room was devoted to row Of sep
arate cupboards or bins. each with a
separate glass door and filled with
cigars stacked across each other like
timber. so as to allow free circula-
ton OF air. On wet days the doors
were kept closed and on fine days were
left open. a pointed stud was stuck
into the wood above the door Of the
bin in use. AS soon as the bin was
emptied the stud was moved to above
the next door and the empty receptacle
reflled from the big chests Of cigars
which Trollope obtained direct from
Havana.

The Willmar Tribune editor has

The Willmar Tribune editor has
heard a good many expressions re-
garding the Parker article which was
published in our last issue on "The
Spirit Of the University" Most of
these were commendatory, one go-
ing so far as to say that it's publica-
ton was the biggest possible serv-
ice We could have done the state. The
one message received taking the 9TH
er view comes from an old friend,
who is taking the law course at the
University, and we are glad to pub
fish it in full in this issue. Mr.. Lar
son is naturally very loyal to the in
stitution in which he has just enroll
ed and has made the mistake of
thinking that all criticism is des-
tructive. We believe it is only the
deepest love for his alma mater which
has led Mr.. Parker to speak his mind
as he had, his hope being that the
institution might be purged of those
tendencies which he so graphically
pictures. The first step in any re-
form is to expose error. We hope in
the near future to publish another
article from the same pen along con
structive lines, showing what should
! be done. to make the University a
peoples institution in a better sense
than it now fills.

Minneapolis, Dec. 16, 1911.
Mr.. V. E. Lawson,
Willmar, MINI.
My dear Mr.. Lawson:
l was very much disappointed to
see you give space and also editor
ial sanction to that article Of Park
er's.
When it comes to creating class
feeling, discomfort and suspicion in
the public mind that article is on a
par with Deb's article in the Appeal
to Reason calling for volunteers not
afraid to die in the cause of labor.
There are many methods of gain
ing notor1ety but when it comes to
attacking the one institution under
the American flag that is doing a
greater service in raising the stand
ard Of citizenship, which is the foun-
dation Of all that is worth seeking in
this world, the public school system,
it becomes a serious matter. Some
irresponsible roaming spirits attack
anything and everybody, like bull in
a china closet, for the mere selfish
satisfaction Of hearing their own
noise and if possible leave some mark
Of attack. Is it any wonder that the
ordinary man despairs of finding
anything instructive in such storm
of abuse concocted in what must be
a disorganized mental condition.
Here at the University the attack
was treated with silent federation as
no one felt anything personal in it,
but it does change the situation when
it is given publicity and guarantee
by men of public responsibility.
I don't know what civilized coun-
try Of today would tolerate an insti-
tuition such as it pictured.
You are personally acquainted
with my history, from the log cabin
and 20 days Of school per year, thru
the public schools, the academic and

FEAR THE BOOZE OF Japan


Cyril A. Ward, brother of Lord
Dudley and OF John Hubert Ward.
who married Jean Reid, daughter of
American ambassador to England.
sailed yesterday by the Red Star liner
Vaderland for Dover with his wife,
who was the Baroness Irene de Brien-
en- of Holland, and had some things
to say about his Impressions of the
world tour which he will finish in
England. He retired from the navy
with the rank of Lieutenant Com.
mander, and has made a study or
war ships and war.
He was three weeks in japan and
noted that the Japanese were fattcr-
ed by the rumors that they were go
ing to engage in war with the Uuited
States, and the fear of Congressman
Hobson of japanese invasion of
America. Ward said all the Japanese
naval officers with whom he talked
seemed to think the proposition of
fighting the United States ridiculous
They realized that Japan did not
have the money, and that the trans
portation of troops to the Pacific
shore of America would take at least
a month.
Japan" Ward said, was complete
ly stripped of money with her war
with Russia, thousands of miles from
the border of Russia, and it is not
likely that any nation will lend her
the money to engage in war with the
United States she looks upon the
United States as her friend, and alb
solutely laughs at the idea of a rup-
ture that would mean greater harm to
Ler Than to the United States.
Australia also seems to be obsess-
ed with the Japanese bugaboo. It
has practically excluded the Japanese
from the country by law, and has an
idea that the Japanese will attack
and overwhelm the country. This
fear of the Japanese in Australia is
just as senseless as the fear in the
United States of a Japanese invasion
With strong Navy, an increased
Navy and the Panama canal forti-
fed, the United States can defy any
of the powers of the world. New

BUSINESS DULL
BUT PROMISING

Dun's Review New York;, April
%: Business continues TO move SLOW
ly, its volume, though large, being
much below producing capacity and
displaying a lack of interest and Wig
or. The accommodating deposits and
reserves of the banks are among the
results of the general trade recession,
but they impart strength to the banks,
and will enable them readily to fl
nance the forward movement of en-
torprise whenever it sets in. The
crop situation is at this time so en-
couraging as to afford a basis for in
creasing business confidence. Win
ter wheat conditions are especially
satisfactory. Iron and steel produc-
ton is declining both in pig and fin
ished material In dry goods, while
there is an entire absence of any
buoyancy and curtailment Of produc-
ton continues, yet stocks in consum-
ers' hands are low, which makes the
situation stronger than appears on
surface. The backward spring wealth
er somewhat affects retail distribu-
ton. The shoe market shows some
betterment in demand and an in
crease in confidence, but hides and
leather are very slow. Reports from
the leading trade centers give spec
ial emphasis to the retarding effect
upon immediate business of the back
ward spring, a condition which is. or
course, of temporary duration. Bank
clearings outside New York, this
week, are SO per cent under 1910 and
O.9 per cent better than in 1909; but
in New York there was falling off
of 1916 per cent and 29S per cent, re-
spectively. Railroad earnings in two
weeks of April increased 0.5 per cent.
Exports continue to grow and imports
to decrease, the record for New York
during the latest week being $12,66S,-
846 exports, a gain of $945,379 over
1910 and of $2,767, 1875 over 1909; and
$15,52S,253 imports, a decrease of So
SS3,664 from 1910 and of $4,1O9,657
from 1909.

WHERE BREAD is SCARCE.

There are regions wherein the poor
err classes of peasantry eat little or
no bread. Baked loaves of bread are
practically unknown in many parts of
Southern Austria and Italy and
throughout the agricultural district
of Roumania.
1t is said that in the village of the
Obersteiermark, not far from Wen
ma, bread is never seen, the staple
food being sterz, a kind of porridge
made from ground beechnuts, taken
at breakfast with fresh or curdlel
milk, at dinner with broth or fried
in lard, and with milk again for sup
per, This dish is also known as held
en-. and takes the place of bread not
only in the Austrian district named,
but in Carinthia and in many parts If
the Tyrol.
In Northern Italy the peasants af-
feet a substitute for bread called po-
lenta, a porridge made of boiled
grain. Polenta is not, however, al
lowed to 'granulate" like Scotch por-
ridge or like the Austrian sterz. but
is boiled into solid pudding, which
is cut up and portioned out with a
string. It is eaten cold as often as
it is hot, and it is in every sense the
Italians daily bread.
A variation of Dolenta. called ma
maliga is said to be the favorite food
of the poorer classes of Roumania.
Mamalga is like polenta, in that it is
made of boiled grain, but it is un-
like the latter in one important re-

THE POCKET HANDKERCHIEF.


Why is the modern pocket handker-
chief square, or at least rectangular,
whereas our ancestors of the eight
eenth century permitted themselves
every variety of shape? The answer
to the question provides a curious lit
tie footnote to history. It CHANGED
that the existing irregularity of form
was displeasing to Queen Marie An
toinette, who suggested one winter ev-
ening at Versailles, that uniform
shape would be an indication of good
taste.
The curious searcher among the de-
bris of the ancient regime will ac-
cordingly find a decree of King Louis
XVI, issued in the early days of 1885,
enacting that all pocket handkerchiefs
should have right-angled edges hence
forward. From Paris the new mode
rapidly spread over Europe, but its
origin was somehow overlooked by
the revolutionaries when busy obliter-
ating all traces of Bourbon rule. And
so it is that the square pocket hand
kerchief remains as Louis XV1's one
permanent achievement. London

SUGAR AND COFFEE
IMPORTS NINE MONTHS.

Sugar imports into the United
States for March amounted to thir-
teen and three-tenth millions, as
compared with fourteen and eight
tenth millions for that month last
year. For the nine months ending
with March last the value of sugar
imports was sixty-one and nineteenth
million dollars, against sixty-three
and eighteenth millions for the cor
responding period ending with March
1919.
Coffee imports for the nine months
ending with March were seventy and
fourteenth million dollars, against
sixty and sixteenth millions for the cor
responding period ending year be-
fore.
These figures indicate an enormous
increase in the consumption of coffee.
