dents body with bullets after he is
dead and laid in his coffin. This prac-
tice may be more humanitarian, out
it is less effective than that which
prevails in Mexico. Resolved that we
would rather be president of Hayti
than of Mexico-Dawson Sentinel.
The report of the state superinten-
dent of banks shows he condition of
the state banks to be most prosperous,
which indicates that Minnesota has a
| business prosperity of which we may
be justly proud. There are 100 state
banks in the state, and the resources
of these institutions are $3.50, ,672.

j. Adam Bede offers a reward of
81 900 for evidence of any bribery of
members of Congress. We congratu-
late'J. Adam upon his entry into the
millionaire class. But why limit to a
paltry thousand st. Paul Dispatch.
If John Lind makes good in Mexico,
he might later be called to President
Wilson's cabinet, to take the place of
some of those fellows who can't live
on their salaries.-Inter-Lake Tribune
Governor Sulzer of New York, is
charged by Tammany with using his
campaign funds to speculate in the
stock market. The governor has been
making strong fight for primary re-
form in New York which Tammany
opposed, so that it is impossible at this
distance to tell whether Sulzer is sim
ply four-fusher or whether he is an
earnest reformer who is being perse-
cuted by his enemies. Considering
the past history of Tammany, the lat
ter appears to be the case.-Morris
Tribune.
Bro. Hoard, the noble old Roman of
Montevideo, has been appointed post
master of his town, and is receiving
the congratulations of the newspaper
boys, who are pleased to learn of his
worthy appointment. There is moth
ing too good for Hoard among the
newspaper boys and the News hopes
he may keep it as long as he wants to
hold it.-Canby News.
Representative Ernest C. Pless of
Gibbon, is inclined to favor Governor
Eberhart in his public utilities mea-
sure and we believe that he is right in
so doing. 1t would seem feasible that
we should enact a uniform law that
would be state wide in its effect for
the control of public utilities Win

One great disappointment in connec-
ton with the Wilson appointments is
the steady turning out of Office of Min
listers who have worked their way up
to their present positions by merit af-
ter entering the lowest grades of the
diplomatic service.-Evening Post.
Where they made their mistake was
instead of entering the lowest grades
they should have seated themselves
upon the lowest steps of the Chautau-
guam platforms. There they might
have learned early in life that even 2
Dove of Peace can grow hungry after
sixteen lean years on Nebraska dei-
ert. Sage brush is not eaten If let
tuce patch is near.-New York Sum-
The public now sees Tammany p
all its hideousness. However bad
Sulzer is, Tammany is worse. Bat
this is no argument for putting UP
with one evil. If Sulzer is thief
and perjurer let US remove him. Bal
let US also destroy Murphy, whether
he placed thief or perjurer IN once
or is merely great Impeachment
power of the state in plying his m
famous trade-New York Tribune.
