FINE ENDORSEMENT:
West Duluth Citizens Ask Elec-
ton of Candidate for
Judge.

Five hundred West Duluth resi-
dents have already signed a petition
urging the election Of Harry w. Lam
ners as assistant municipal judge.
The petition is being circulated
throughout this end of the city and
will be distributed within a few days
among all the voters Of Duluth:
A copy of the petition follows:
ITO our fellow voters: We, the I'M
dersigned, citizens of Duluth, residing
in West Duluth, respectfully ask your
attention that we may make brief
statement regarding the newly estab-
lished West Duluth division of the
municipal court.
This court was created primarily
to take care of the business of this
end of the city and We believe that
the judge should be a resident of this
section If otherwise qualified, as his
knowledge thus gained would enable
him to better discharge his duties.
We, therefore, are tndorsing the can
didacy of Harry w. tanners for as
sistant municipal judge to be in
charge Of the West Duluth division
Of the municipal court.
HE came to Duluth nineteen years
ago when II years old, settling In
West Duluth in 1896, and although
he was the chief support of hts
mother, a widow Of Civil war vet
eran, and his invalid sister and niece.
he began the study Of law. BY work
ing all day and often late at night
he was able to acquire the necessary
legal education and was admitted to
practice by the state bar examiners
in 1899, passing with honors. Since
then, he has maintained the only law
office in West Duluth and has en-
joyed the confidence Of the people to
such an extent that his practice has
grown steadily.
I'VE, his neighbors and business as
sociates, feel that he deserves recog-
milton for the service he has rendered
the public in maintaining a law office
for the convenience of the West Du-
luth people in years gone by when
business conditions were hard and fl.
nancial rewards were small, and that
these facts should be known by all
the electors Of the city.
In conclusion, we hereby heartily
recommend Harry w. tanners for as
sistant municipal judge, as we believe
him to have the qualities which would
make a just and upright judge, and
ask for him your vote and supports

NEW STYLE IN WILLS.

B. Altman died in New York city
recently, leaving an estate valued at
forty millions, which he had amassed
in the mercantile business.
He was survived by brothers, sis
ters, nephews, nieces and other rela-
tives who might have become recipi-
ents of great riches by his death.
But-Mr. Altman varied from Gus
tom and left about 95 per cent of his
fortune to the faithful employees who
had helped him to build one of the
greatest retail business in America.
The great store is now owned by his
former employees. Each, from the
lowest rank to the highest, and from
newcomers to the institution to those
who have grown gray in its service,
now shares in the profits of the busi-
ness, the stock being distributed with
consideration to the length of the
employees service and the value to
his employer. Several large bequests
were made to various charitable en-
terprises. The remainder Of the es-
tate, about 100000, was be-
queathed to the relatives, enough to
support them in more than ordinary
comfort the remainder of their lives,
but a small share of the dead mans
millions.
Isn't this an example worthy OF
emulation by other holders of vast
wealth? Should this plan prevail
among our multi-millionaires would
it not be of vast benefit to the coun-
try at large, and even to the rela-
tives who, in so many instances, liv-
| ing in luxurious idleness, degenerate
! into moral, physical and menta
wrecks, and by their profligacy give
support to the arguments of some agi'
tators that our present economic and
social system is all wrong?

THE BIG MEN.
(By Walt Mason.)

The big men dare and the big men
do; they dream great dreams, which
they make come true. They bridge
the rivers and link the plains, and
grid the land with their railway
trains; they make the desert break
forth in bloom, they send the cata-
ract through a fiume to turn the
wheels of thousand mills and bring
the coin to a nations tills; the big
men work, and the big men plan, and
help themselves help their fellow
man. And the cheap men yelp at
their carriage wheels, as the small
dogs bark at the big dogs heels. The
big men SOW while the cheap men
sleep, and when they go to their
fields to reap, the cheap men cry,
1--WE must have a share of all the
grain that they harvest there! These
men are pirates, they sow and rear
and plan and build while we are
asleep! Well legislate till they lose

THE THAW CASE.

The shameful thing about our
country is the sorry figure that
wealth displays when it violates JUS
tice. II seems that all the machin-
cry of the courts is oiled and pre-
pared for rich criminals. Its techni-
calities seem to be especially pro-
vided to enable lawyers and fee-sal-
aried court officials to extract the
major part of fat bank roll. Will
liam Thaw was a good citizen
equipped with judgment, foresight
and thrift. Encouraged by favorable
laws, he grabbed a large section OF
the anthracite coal deposits of Penn
sylvania. He constructed railroads,
largely with bonuses furnished by
the communities which his railroads
served, to transport his coal, and dy-
ing at a ripe age he left as herit-
age $40,000,000 and neurotic son
Raised without restraint in the laI
of luxury, it was but natural tha

THE GOSPEL OF THoRoUGHNEss

About thirty-five years ago Jim
Hill used to sit on the st. Paul levee.
whiting an old wood chair and
talk of buying the st. Paul & Pacific
railroad. He was called the most
garrulous talker of the northwest.
Few people took him seriously.
Hill and five other men put $685.
900 into that railroad, and ten years
after their investment was worth
$40, 100000. Today James ]. Hill,
who celebrated his 18th birthday at
Glacier Park a few days ago, is the
foremost railroad king. The quail
ties that led to his amazing success
are worth the study of every ambi-
tious man.
Little ships must keep near shore
Larger ships may venture more"
The st. Paul G. Pacific people
trusting to the growth of the coun-
try, watered their stock so that Hill
used to say they had taken in all OF
Lake Michigan. These were gam
bling chances which the everyday
man must avoid.
Where Hill won was in thorough
ness of detail. While other railroad
promoters were debating letters il
comfortable office chairs, Hill was
on his railroad platforms talking
with engineers about valves anC
boilers and with passengers abou
the resources of the country. HI
knew his rolling stock and his fielc
as a stage driver knows his horses
and territory.
Hill would talk over his plans will
any one from a barber to Wal
street magnate. Every one woult
suggest some idea, until his scheme
came out quite different, as the re
suit of a consensus of his neighbors
common sense. Few business men il
these days of government regulation
will ever make so great success
But Hills habit of knowing ever
detail of his business is somethin
that can be initiated with amazin
r results by every man in his owt
trade

ANIMALS FoRErELL WEATHER?

AS scientific methods of work grow
general, many traditional and primi-
tive arts, roughly successful in their
own way, disappear. Reflection
along this line was promoted recent
ly on reading a dispatch sent out
from Central Park, New York. The
menagerie keeper, it appears, predicts
cold winter, because the squirrels
are building nests a month earlier
than usual.
Can weather be predicted by OBJ
serving the ways of animals? All
the old people thought so. Stock
men say cattle are restless some
hours before a man can see signs of
storm. Chickens oil their feathers
before rain. If an owl boots in a
hollow, it means cold storm. II
he cries on the hill, it portends warm
er weather. If hornets build low
winter will be cold. And so on.
OCleUIlllC IcoCdi I'll oCCho W ~
against the bulk of this lore. Pro
fessor Lindlemyer of the University
of Prague's geological department re
Gently studied the familiar sign b!
which the low flight of swallows il
supposed to indicate storm. He con
cluded that the swallows flight wa
not directly due to atmospheric con
ditions, but that they followed tn
insects. Often he found these insect
high up before storm, the swallow
following them.
The old-timers watched weathe
indications sharply. But the on
time when a sign was verified wa
remembered, while the dozen time
, it failed we're forgotten. They wer

Such trafficking with the laws de-
lays would be unthinkable in Eng
land where all such technicalities are
swept away. A case comes to trial
speedily, is decided on its merits
and there is rarely an appeal. Aside
from the money spent by Thaw, the
state of New York has paid immense
fees to alienists, jurors and court
officers.
If the Thaw case brings out in
bold relief the defects in our crimi-
nal Jurisprudence it will have served
some useful purpose.
