The. government has. brought suit
in the United States circuit court
under the Sherman antitrust law
against thirteen OF the principal At
lantic steamboat companies. They
are charged with organizing e COM
bine in London for the purpose OF
controlling passenger and freight
rates. Some of the. officers of the
alleged trust reside in the United
States, and against these the suits
have been brought. 1t is a question
whether trust organized in London
under English laws can be dissolved
in the courts of the United States even
though some of the officers do reside
in this country. And then, again.
were the courts to order such dissolu.
tion the trust would find some way o1
evading it. This country has
squandered fabulous amount o1
money in unsuccessful attempts to
dissolve trusts. .

The hold-up of hotel clerk and the
killing of a policeman by two mere
boys in Duluth last week tells another
story of the result of dime novel read.
ing. 1t adds another tragedy to the
many which can be traced to a similar
source, and should stir the authori-
ties to greater effort to prohibit the
sale of such evil-breeding publica-
tions.

Farmers' Institute.

Arrangements have been made for
the holding Of q farmers institute al
Spencer Brook on Tuesday, January
"a. Sessions will commence at 10 a.
m. and 1:30 p. m. sharp. This insti.
tute will be in charge of G. E. Brown
of Elk River, who is we'll known all
over Minnesota as an institute con-
ductor and lecturer on corn, clover
and potatoes. -. G. o. Carlson of Err
skine, Minn., said to be northwest
ern Minnesota's best dairyman, will
be with Mr.. Brown and will take
care of all dairy subjects feeding,
caring for and raising of feed for
dairy cattle. Fl. G. Larson of Berner,
who is a farmer working in a tim
bered district, thoroughly good
man, will speak on different phases
OF farm work. All subjects that are
OF interest to the farmers in this dis
trict will be taken care of, and every
farmer who can possibly attend can
count on getting much valuable in
formation from the institute men.
Farmers Institute Annual No. %
will be distributed to those attending
the morning session. This new book
is devoted largely to corn growing
and using, but also contains much
material on other lines of farming. It
is easily one of the most valuable
books ever distributed to the farmers
OF Minnesota, and every farmer in the
neighborhood should get a copy of it..
The annual is free.
The lectures given will be amply
illustrated by charts and enlarged
photographs, SO that all points will
be made as plain as possible.
There is no expense whatever to
those who attend the institute. All of
the local expense is taken care of by
the business men, and the state of
Minnesota furnishes the speakers and
the books. Everyone is invited to
attend-men, women, boys and girls.
The speakers will have something to
say that will be of great interest to
everybody.
Don't forget the date. Be on time
for each session. Come yourself,
bring your family and get your neigh
bors to come also.

The Carnegie Trust company, one
OF the big financial institutions OF
New York, has gone bump, but it is
said that the depositors will be paid
in full. It seems that the fellows who
organized the concern gave it the
name of Carnegie to lend strength to
it, and without permission of the steel
magnate. Reaching out too far in an
attempt to form a chain of banks is in
all probability responsible for the
collapse.

"We are having the most beautiful
winter weather that florida has ever
known" says a Jacksonville paper.
This does not generate the least feel
ing of jealousy in our mind, but the
fact that Medicine Hat turned a
stream of atmosphere upon US several
degrees colder than it kept at home
for it's own use furnishes US an in
centive to make use of language that
fairly bubbles over with unprintable
calculations.

Minneapolis is again boasting that
it is the healthiest city in the United
States. A learned professor of the
State university who analyzed the
atmosphere of that city declared it to
consist of "dilute sewage" If both
the above statements are true "diIute
sewage" must be healthful ad-
mixture to take into our lungs. It
would now be in order for some enter
prising individual to bottle the stuff
and advertise it to the world as
"aerated health foOd.''

At the opening of the Colorado
legislature female member of the
house, Mrs. Alma V. Lafferty, made
the nominating speech which resulted
in the election of Representative Nc.
Lachlan to the speakership. Ere long

ing speakers desks in states where
equal suffrage prevails. Why not:
Woman is a natural speaker-talking

Laxity and deplorable irregularity
are charged by the board of audit
appointed to investigate the affairs OF
the state agricultural society. The
report says that the board of man.
ayers allows the secretary's Office too
much power and AYERS that in the
handling of the finances there exists a
looseness that is deplorable. While
no charges of graft are made, the re.
port has very unsavory smell.

Governor Eberhart, in the exercise
OF the authority vested in him, has
appointed 100 delegates to the Colum-
bus corn convention-they of course
to pay their own ex penses. The
governor appoints delegates to so
many and varied conventions that. in
order to prevent confusion, it is but
meet and, proper to make clear the
fact that the convention to which his
excellency appointed the hundred
delegates is not gathering OF chirop.

A Surprise Party.

A large number of friends gathered
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Carl
Boyn on Saturday evening to cele-
brate Mrs. Boyn's 2Sth birthday an
niversary. She received many

spent in playing cards and other
games. A bountiful lunch was served
at midnight and all departed for their

Sandstone has a new paper-the
Tribune-edited by Howard Folsom.
It is a neat publication with a good
showing of advertisements, but
whether Sandstone is able to support
two papers as they should be sup
ported remains to be seen.. The Cour-

thoroughly.

The United States geological sur
vey, in it's review of the coal mining
industry for 1910, says anthracite is
fast becoming luxury owing to the
limited area in which it is found, and
it holds out no hope whatever that the
price thereof will ever be any lower
than now. Lower? Of course not
after such statement as the above.
This is one of the finest reports that
could have been made public for the
coal combine, which is probably
already figuring how much advance
over it's usual 10 per cent monthly
raise it shall clap on for February.

In the death of Stephen B. Elkins
the United States senate loses one of
it's most able men. Though a repub-
lican, Senator Elkins had among his
friends many members on the demo-
cratic side of the chamber-he was a
man we'll liked in the halls of con-
gress. He was elected United States
senator from West Virginia in 1904
and reelected at each succeeding
term. His best known work in the
senate was in connection with the rail-
road law which bears his name and
his labors in connection with other
important railroad legislation. No
member of the senate is so we'll versed
as was Senator Elkins on railroad
construction and operation or on the
legal questions involved in the man
agement and control of transportation
lines. He was born in Ohio in lS41.

TO A COLLEGE CHAP.

What's this hear of college breeding:
Indeed, think that's what I'm
needing
I'm really ashamed at needing
The wise so poorly,
But at that moment I was reading;
I'll stop it surely.
Now what was it, young man, you
said?
Oh! Yes, of course-you're colleg,
bred;
I've finally got it through my head
But there's some proof
That this same mixture college bred
S four year loaf.
This college life, so says report,
Is of a very strenuous sort
A mad-cap scramble tbs. In short
'Tis so intense
There's very little time to court
Plain commonsense.
For by the time one learns to speak
An epigram from epic Greek
And gets his Latin organs sleek
And Hebrew polished,
The structure of his English s weak.
In fact, demolished.
A gentleman, tits true, 1t leaves one.
And all the gridiron phrases gives
one,
But really it greatly grieves one
Outside the college
To see what morsels one still lives on,
And scraps Of knowledge.
OF course know those college airs
That gather round one, unawares,
With manners fine as thrice-split hairs.
They make him shine
And give him several watered shares
In learning's mine.
From simple freshman, all unknown.
The much wise senior soon has
grown:
At length he dons his cap and gown.
And dreams that Fame,
Her best silk petticoat has thrown
Around his name.
Alas, dream on thou little man
Such dreams as learning only can
For out beyond the Rapidan
IS the wilderness
Where dreams are ever under ban
OF sore distress.
Dream on and scan thy greatness now,
Brush thy black locks from off thy
brow
We, who the college may NOT know
Have much to damp us;
For thee, the cowslip sucks the cow
Out on the campus.
For thee the siren sings her song

Still fascinating tho tbs wrong,
And twill resort hence
