Definition of a Mean Man.

Rev W w Bustard of Cleveland,
O, tells in a recent sermon what he
thinks of the man who does not think
enough of his family to provide for
their comfort after he has gone.
Nmong other things. he says:
1T is mean for a man to go to
heaven after he dies and leave his
wife and children to go to the aims
house. 1t is contemplate for him
to move into heavenly mansion sit
uated on golden street not far
from the crystal river. while his wife
and children move into a downtown
house and live in three rooms on the
fourth floor. We have little right
to expect God to provide for those
whom we neglect. After we are
gone, our wives and children must
be fed, clothed and housed the same
as before. 1t is almost as much of
a crime for a man not to do this af-
ter he is dead as it would have been
for him to have neglected it while
he was alive"
To which he might have added: 1t
is "pizen" mean to subscribe to a
paper and read it for several years,
on credit, then leave the account un-
paid and uncollectible when the de-
linquent is carried to the skies on
f1owery beds of ease OF removes his
habitation to parts unknown on this
terrestrial ball, leaving the paper
man to pay his debts with borrowed
money, if he be fortunate enough to
be able to negotiate a loan. Be-
tween the two we have more respect
for the dead debtor than the living
dead beat.

The Wilson administration cur
rency measure, according to authori-
ties who have made study of it, is
not only inadequate to bring. about
the results sought to be achieved
but is unjust and pernicious. The
compulsory provision in the bill,
under which national banks are re-
quired to comply with such provision
within year or forfeit their char
tiers, looks as if congress were en-
deavoring to exercise power to pass
a law which takes property from a
citizen without due process of law.
If they do not comply with the pro-
vision within year they must for
felt charters which, in many in
stances, have years to run.

A fellow named Neil, who: gradu-
ated from a Colorado correspondence
school for sleuths, asks Governor
Eberhart to create bureau Of

and to appoint him chief. He claims
to be able to run to earth any crimi-
nal that ever piled his vocation, and
thinks the governors staff a useless
organization as bodyguard. He
would surround the governor with
men who would preclude any posi-
bility of his excellency ever being
dynamited, shot or stabbed. Neil's
assertion that the governors staff
is a useless organization cannot be
denied, but his other statements
would indicate that he is eligible for
membership in the nut club. y

Hennepin county commissioners
have made discovery. 1t has lust
dawned upon them that under the
Dunn road law that county will pay
a trif1e more of the general one-mil]
state road tax than it can possibly
get back, and that the three large
counties of ST. Louis, Ramsey and
Hennepin will pay about $500, O0(
more than they can receive from the
state. The two former counties are
not complaining; 1t is Hennepin
alone that is grumbling. There is
no city in the state that will derive
more benefit from a system of good
roads throughout the state than
Minneapolis, for at least two-thirds
of the state is tributary to that city
and furnishes a good market for its
merchandise and manufactured prod.

get back every dollar it contributes
toward good roads with compound
interest.

The political gossiper Of the St.
Paul Dispatch int1mates that r. c.
Dunn still has gubernatorial aspira-
lions, as he has made his name more
widely and favorably known than
ever before through the road laws he
has pushed through the last two
sessions of. the legislature. The
gossiper's surmises are devoid of
foundation. Dunn would rather be
instrumental in securing one. hun
dred miles of good roads for his sec
tion of the state than be governor.
The average governor doesn't amount
to much, and ex-governors are
political nonentities.

4 "REMINISCENCES.

Lars NJ. Rand, Minneapolis ward
politician of long standing, died at
his home in that city last Saturday.
Mr.. Rand was a democrat and &C.
casionally, in years gone by, :stumped
the state for his party. 1t was in
1884, we believe, he was holding
forth to small audience of the
faithful in the old court house hall
in Princeton and he waxed eloquent
in his praise of the party of Jeffer-
son, Jackson and Allen Thurman.
Then he exclaimed: "Fellow citi-
zens, that noble old Roman, Allen
Thurman, the grandest man in the
United States, was defeated for re-
election to the United States senate
by the corrupt Ohio republicans and
a notorious boodler was chosen in his
stead" The writer, who. was
present taking notes, quietly in
quired of Mr.. Rand if the legislature
that defeated Senator Thurman was
not democratic on joint ballot, and
if Standard Oil Payne, the man
elected to succeed Thurman, was not
a democrat? Lars was speechless
for the space of about thirty seconds
! then good-naturedly remarked
"Say, Bob, stop asking me such d-n
fool questions and I'll treat when
the meeting is over.'' Lars made
good at the close of the meeting but
he made no converts to the cause OF
democracy that evening.
