It has come to light that "Pussy-
foot' Johnson, the hireling who
caused so much trouble in northern
Minnesota, did not resign voluntarily
from his position of special Indian
agent. Charges of INSTRUMENTATION,
inattention to duty, attempts to mis-
lead the department and reckless use
of government money were preferred
against him, and he resigned rather
than face these charges. johnson
should not be let off so easily if
guilty of the offenses enumerated by
Samuel Adams, assistant secretary OF
the Indian department., and there is
no reason to doubt his statement.

SO Jack and Bob, the faithful old
Minneapolis fire department horses
which had outgrown their usefulness,
have been sold to a farmer in Free
born county and, in all probability,
will have to again buckle down to
hard work despite the efforts of kind
hearted ladies who we're raising a SUBJ
scription to purchase them. It was
the intention of these women to place
the veterans on farm near Excelsior,
where they would have to do no labor
during their few remaining days, but
Barrett & Zimmerman, it seems, tired
of the delay occasioned in raising the
funds necessary for their purchase
and disposed of them after promising
not to do so. The glitter of gold ex-
pels the good qualities from many a

II am very grateful for the honors
the people have given me. I do not
affect to deny the satisfaction I should
feel, after casting up the totals pro

should decide that my first term had
been fruitful enough of good to war;
rant their enlisting me for another.
Any man would be proud of such a
verdict. But have not been willing,
nor shall be, to purchase it at the
sacrifice of my freedom to do my duty
as see it. My happiness is not de-
pendent on holding any Office; and I
shall 60 back to private life with no
heartburnings if the people, after an
unprecedented review of my administra-
ton, conclude that some one else can

We do not advocate that q niggard-

should be more liberal expenditures.
The helpless wards of the state must

vision must be made for their needs.

AT the regular session of the legis-

bill passed the house by vote of IS
to 81, and was defeated in the senate
by Sc to 81 votes. Assuming that a
like measure could be repassed in the
house-that is assuming a great deal
in view Of the subsequent passage OF
the "seven senators' bill by that
body-what assurance has any one
received that five senators have
changed their mind? In other words,
will 81 house members and 81 senators

There are things in human form in
habiting this world with whom the
hog is a greatly superior animal in
comparison. Take that fellow up at
Lawrence, Mass, for instance. To
begin with he boasts of being the
champion eater of New England, and
on Thanksgiving day he proved his
right to the unenviable title by de-
vouring for dinner Is pounds of
turkey, two Ioaves of bread, three
quarts of tea, six bananas, IL dough-
nuts, two punches of celery, 10 large
potatoes, half pound of butter, one
squash, two quarts of cranberry sauce
and two mince pies. If that dose
doesn't kill the glutton it should.

STATE EXPENSES.

In recent issue Of the St. Paul
Dispatch there appeared an article,
based upon figures obtained from the
state auditors office, in which it is
shown that the increase in the state
tax levy is mainly attributable to
special appropriations made by the
Legislature.
We are we'll aware of the fact that
the legislature is blamable for the. in
crease. The Legislature gave too
much heed to the recommendations
and demands of state boards and
state of6cials--elective and ap-
pointive. If one-half the demands
made upon the legislature had been
acceded to the state tax levy would
have been trebled. =.
That the legislative session of 1911
cost too much cannot be gainsaid.
The next legislature can and should
reduce its expenses below those of the
last session by at least $40, 1000. The
salary of members, which was in
creased at the 1907 session, is none
too high; he is poor member, indeed,
whose services are not worth 81 900 to
the state. There are those, however,
who will dispute this assertion.
In the Dispatch article particular
stress is laid upon the additional ap-
preparation to enable the highway
commission to employ corps of CON-
petent men to supervise and direct the
work of road-improvement throughout
the state. That appropriation, if
properly utilized, as it doubtless will
be, will be productive of greater good
to the people of the state as a whole
than double the amount appropriated
for any other purpose.
At this time we do not care to enter
into discussion of state finances, but
we reiterate the charge that there are
too many tax-eaters in the employ of
the state. AS the population and
valuation of the state increases it is
to be expected that the cost of state
government will be increased; but the
increase in the cost of government
during the past decade is out of all
proportion to the increase of popula-
tion and valuation.
We also maintain that state ex-
penses can be materially decreased
and that the interests of the state will
not suffer thereby. There are many

cuted, and the writer Of this article
shared in that belief. We could not
believe that men who stood SO high in
the ranks of organized labor as the,
McNamara brothers would be guilty
of such a heinous crime.
In due course of time the case came
on for trial at Los Angeles. Six
weeks had been consumed in the
attempt to obtain jury, and only
eight jurors had been secured when,
owing to the confessions last Friday.
further proceedings we're suspended.
James B. Mcnamara plead guilty to,
the charge of murder in the first de-:
gree, and his brother, John J. Me-
Namara, plead guilty to dynamiting
the Llewellyn Iron Works in Los,
Angeles on Christmas day, 1910.
The confessions we're the result of a
compromise. Attorney Darrow was
convinced that there was little or no
chance of,clearing James Mcnamara,
and if the verdict was guilty he would
be hanged. On Tuesday he was SEN
fenced to Imprisonment for life in
San Quentin penitentiary and his
brother, John, was given term of IS
years in the same institution.
Organized labor contributed liber-
ally to the fund for the defense of the.
McNamara brothers, and labor
leaders unhesitatingly declared their
belief in the innocence of the accused.
Numerous buildings have been
wrecked by dynamite bombs in cities
all over the United States within the
past two years, and the gang with
which the McNamaras we're affiliated
is held responsible for the outrages.
More arrests are expected soon.
The enemies of organized labor will
gloat over the revelations at Los
angeles, but no fair-minded person
will hold members of trades unions as
a whole responsible for the dastardly
deeds of a few unworthy members.
abiding trades unionists every
where condemn the Los Angeles out
rage and demand that the dastardly
perpetrators shall suffer condign
punishment.

Fourteen cardinals were on Thanks
giving day created by Pope Plus in
the vatican at Rome and more than a
thousand Americans we're present to
witness the imposing ceremonies.
John M. Farley, archbishop of New
York; William O'Connell, archbishop
of Boston; and Diomede Falconio,
formerly apostolic representative of
the vatican at Washington, were
among those who received the red hat.
It was at one time believed that Arch
bishop John Ireland would be selected
as one OF the prelates to receive pro-
motion, and many of his friends were
somewhat disappointed when they
learned otherwise. The Union is
among the archbishop's friends that
would have been much pleased had he
been honored with cardinalate.
