An inspection of the tables for
Colorado in the bulletin soon to be

Both bonding and floating debt show

was Archbishop Ireland. The remarks
of the archbishop were quite pointed
and in his talk he roundly scored the.
tendency toward Socialistic ideas and
their Incorporation in matters polite.
Mr.. Bede was favorably impressed
and, rising as the archbishop sat
down, said: Eyes, your grace, if the
primary law was compulsory in the
Catholic church you would have Billy
Sunday as pope. The audacity of the
remark rather startled the guests, but
the archbishop only laughed and after
a slight pause said: Il guess you

the workmen in a wage way and for
this reason the eastman law is at

ship which comes two years hence
can be assured. Mind you I am not
giving you this Lind talk as authorita-
tive; it is only gossip and probably
only very thin gossip at that, and yet
it has the earmarks of some one
close to the throne This Lind talk
was started last week and like the
ppQyerbial straw was grabbed at with
ayidity Some even had the nerve to
say it had national administration
backing, but Mr.. Lynch would not go
that far. The best he would say was
that if Mr.. Lind could be induced to
enter the race he would be winner
Lind gossip aside, the coming Demo
cratic get together meeting is going
to be the best Kilkenny scrap ever
held in Minnesota, or | miss nay
guess, and probably it is here where
this Lind stuff comes in. He is to be
offered as the egg that will settle the
coffee. Anything to put Dan Lawler
out of business is generally accepted
here as the motive behind the love
feast, as promoted by Mr.. Lynch, but
in the getting process it is pretty GER
tain that some one is going to be hurt.
Dan will not stand for it, nor neither
will the O'Connor crowd, with whom
Mr. LaWler is aligned, so you see this
Lind stuff, if it could be forced would
not be bad thing after all. All fac
tions would practically have to &C
cept him.
Speaking of Dan Lawler and the
Lynch designs on his gubernatorial
ambitions, | gather from the talk that
if Congressman Hammond, who is IA
vored by Mr.. Lynch and his lieuten-
ants, is brought out for governor that
the faying the administration end will
receive from Mr.. Lawler will be worth
recording. It will be an echo of the
Clark-Wilson fight for control of the
Minnesota delegation and some choice
linen may be aired in the mixup,
Hammond, the Lawlerites charge
though enjoying committee prestige
at the hands of Speaker Clark, forgot
him in his hour of need and for this
reason he should be treated as an in.
CRATE. Besides they hold that Ham
mond, because of his connection with
the present tariff law, cannot be
elected. The farmers, they say, would
knife him.

Antiquity Of the Mortgage.

The legal document known as a mort
gage can be traced as far back as the
dawn of authentic history The mort
gage comes directly down to US from
the Romans, but its antiquity is much
more remote than the Roman nation.
The Greeks, Carthaginians, Persians,
Egyptians, Babylonians all knew of
the mortgage and daily used it in their
business transactions. 1t is safe to
say that the custom of giving mort
cages is practically as old as settled
