Must Pay Back $eo,Oo0.

The general revenue fund will re- ceive another hard jolt when the $90,- 900 borrowed from the sinking fund by the legislature the first of the year to pay the first expenses of that body is returned to that fund, which the state treasurer advises should be done before the annual apportionment of common school funds The money has never been returned, because, up until a few weeks ago the general revenue fund did not have sufficient money for that purpose. The sinking fund is to pay the interest on school bonds amounting to about s35, ,O00 each year. which sum is turned over to the sinking fund each year before the an- nual apportionment. The money was lying idle in the treasury at the time the legislature convened, and was bor- rowed to pay the mileage and per diem.A the general revenue at that time being in straitened circum- stances.

That we must all work is coming to be the general thought; with it comes the thought Of consideration for ones neighbor. No man can work and not feel for others The Blade goes on to say:

The story of labor is not written. Its future is only faintly guessed at by few far. seeing economists. It must march through sloughs of discord yet. hear the sound of conflict and know the bite of hunger, but in the end it will conquer happiness and all the worlds good will and gratitude.
