Valuable as are these prevent ve measures, the main hope for the future lies in education. The youth Of both sexes must be taught the sanctity of the human body. The necessity for personal purity should be brought Eome to male and female alike. The mistakes of the one sex are no more to be excused or condoned than those of the other.

Dear oir:-In reply to your letter
of inquiry of the 23d inst. I have
the honor to advise as follows:
There is one bond of your districts
loan in the sum of $4,000. 90

the principal and interest coming

THE state historical library
again has a bill in for state library
building a meritorious measure
that should be passed. Every
newspaper in the state is giving
publicity to the cause but all efforts
so far have been in vain this year
the same as every other year.
That the library building is be-
coming necessity to house state
library of inestimable value and at
present stored away in the base
ment of the state capitol, all will
admit but 1t is a hard matter to
make the crossroads legislator see
it. You see the south end cross
roods fellow wants something to
benefit his own immediate balliwick
and the Individual balliwick wants
cover about twice as many millions
as the state has TO spend. We
would suggest that the state cut
out paying contest bills for defeated
candidates for the legislature and
senate; stop buying So knives and
scissors for legislators to pass
around among their cronies as
souvenirs; stop a session of ap-
propiations for a fish hatchery for
every Podunk town with a creek
In the southern part of the state
and build library that will benefit
all the people all the time. The
library is a good thing but the
fish pond is necessity-for the
fellow from Podunk.

IT is very evident from reading
the comments on the reapportion-
ment fasco in the southern Mime
sofa press, that the main opposition
to the measure was because
Representative Congdon of ST..
Louis County was at the head of
the committee. Some of these
papers lead us to believe that had
'Pumpkin-town Jake" or Kan
diyohi Bill" prepared the measure.
the same would have become law
no matter what its contents. Be
truthful boys and say that reap
portionment is a dead issue insofar
as southern Minnesota is concerned
simply because one or two of the
chronic state pap-suckers would
lose their job. That little salary
grab of real money instead of
potatoes, hay and cabbage looks
pretty good to Pumpkin town
Jake" and completely sets in the
back ground the Constitution and
the party platform upon which he
was elected.

LAST week the MINER mentioned
the possibly of a steel passenger
train for the d. & 1. R. Monday
morning those at the station were
struck with the promptness with
which the steel cars had made their
appearance. Careful investigation
however disclosed the fact that the
handsome car was only used for
horses and not people. Perhaps
some day we will have a fine steel
car up this way for the passenger
traffic. At least it has been in
timated that such might be the
case.
