College was asked by a boy the other
day why boys were not born with
10 toes on each foot, and the wise
man couldn't answer. Most men.
after they get to be men, are salts
fed with five toes on a foot, but
boy really ought to be allowed 10.
With only five en- a foot he nows

ANTI-SPITTING ORDINANCE.

One of the necessary ordln-
ances to be passed by the Com
mon council is one to prohibit
the filthy habit of splitting upon
the sidewalks of the city. All
up to date cities in the country
now have an ordinance of this
kind add from the looks OF some
of the sidewalks along the main
street it is apparent one is also
necessary here. Not only is the
habit filthy one but it's also
dangerous to the health of the
community. Disease germs OF
every kind are carried in the
spittIe which when dry is swept
up by women's skirts and CARR
ed in the air, Health reports
show this to be one of tie great
est ways in which to spread
contagious disease, and why
should it be permitted in this
city any more than it is in other
places. By all means pass an
anti-spitting ordinance and see
to it that il is enforced. The
com munity should demand it.

TAFT MEANS DEFEAT

MANY OF the republican newspapers
throughout the country are inclined
to believe that if Taft gets the NOM
nation for President at the convention
now being held at Chicago that his
name at the head of the ticket spells
defeat for the party at the cleo ton
to be held in November. 1t is init
mated that the interests that he
serves have decided that they would
prefer a democratic administration
and that these men in making bitter
fight to secure the nomination for the
President are making stalking horse
of him with that purpose in view.
1t is evident that Taft is not popu-
lar with the voters. This has been
proven wherever there has been a
state primary. He.is an absolute
failure as vote getter.
Roosevelt, too, it is claimed by the
other side is equally unpopular with
the voters and there are many voters
who desire to see some other man
than the two mentioned to head the
republican ticket.
These are progressive times and
only progressive candidate can be
elected. Robert M. LaFollette OF
Wisconsin has always stood as pro.
gressive, never allowing his views to
change from progressive lines. He
is the one man who can lead the
Republican party to victory this fall
May the Republican National Con-
vention be wise enough to nominate
him.

STEALING OUR THUNDER

The Duluth Evening Herald
is another paper that can be &C
cused of appropriating out
thunder" in boosting the ag-
ricultural region around Duluth.
In a recent issue of that paper
some lengthy comment was
made On a change of heart of
S. M. Kei LEY, building inspect
or of Duluth. Previous to this
time Mr.. Kelley has not been a
very strong believer in the agri-
cultural region around Duluth
and he has not been a bit back
ward about saying so. but he
has had change of heart and
all doubt has now been wiped a.
way. and he is now as enthusi-
astic about the quality of the
soil and general agricultural
conditions favorable to the pro-
duction of everything grown in
this northern latitude, including
fruit, as anyone could be.
In commenting upon this
change of heart of Mr.. Kelly
the Duluth paper failed to men.

A Surprise For the Weather Prophet.
A century and half ago people used
to depend upon the weather prognosti-
cations in Partridge's Almanac. One
day Partridge himself put up at a
country inn for dinner. The hostler
advised him to stay the night, as 1t
would certainly rain. 'Nonsense!'
said Partridge, and proceeded on his
way. Soon heavy shower fell, which
so impressed the traveller that he in
stantly rode back to the inn and offer
ed the hostler half crown If he would
tell BIN how he knew the rain was i'm
imminent.
"Well," replied the man, with grin.
pocketing the coin, "the truth is we
have Partridge's Almanac here, and
he's such liar that whenever he
promises a fine day we know 1t will be
foul. Today is set down as fine"
The weather prophet, like many otn-
err weather prophets before and since.

ton anything about Wisconsin,
but it is evident from the in
terview with Mr.. Kelly that he
has been travelling in different
direction from Duluth this time
and has strayed off into Bay
field county in northern WIS
consin. No wonder he has had
a change Of heart after visiting
this great land of promise, and
why not?
Here crops of all kinds grow
abundantly, and the orchards
were so fine that that gentlemen
can hardly find words with which
to describe them.
Mr.. Kelley now takes back
all he bias said about the coun-
try surrounding Duluth not be-
ing good for anything. That
he was surprised is mild way
to put it. His trip to Bayfield,
county has accomplished it.
Il must admit" he confessed
that felt sore al the public

outside people believe that there
