This isn't new but it is true, that
nothing draws trade to town like
good roads. Saltwater is gradually
improving things along this lire,
but there is still left fine oppor-
tunity to do more. Keep moving

A Natural Query.
Now that King George of England
has stricken the Emperor of Aus
tria, the Emperor of Germany, and
a half dozen alien. kings, princes,
and dukes from the roll of the Order
of the Garter, Joe. Spieler would
like to know how the poor fellows
are going to keep their bloomin'
socks up while in the trenches. =

| A Redeeming Feature Discovered.
George Fitch suggests that the
United States is practically impreg-
nable against foreign invasion. All
that we have to do is to inveigle an
army on our roads, and they will be
unable to progress in any direction.
That is about the only good thing
that anybody has ever been able to
see in our bad roads. -Mazeppa

An Educational Oligarchy.
There is food for thought in the
article by Supt. Harter of the Hen
nepin county schools, published else
where in this issue. He believes
! that the state high school board is
going too far in their demands upon
the teachers and most people will
sustain him. 1t looks as if the
powers that be are trying to build
up an educational oligarchy in this
state. Fergus Falls Free-Press.

Going to the Dogs.
One Of our exchanges says that
three weeks ago man in this state
taught his dog, finely bred, we'll
behaved setter, to chew tobacco.
Now the dog comes into the house
by the back door, never will scrape
his.feet on the mat, never goes to
church, is careless at his meals, gets
burrs in his tail, goes with a lower
grade of dogs, and it is feared he is
beginning to take an interest in pol
itics. -Luverne Journal.

Undoubtedly True. $
A raw boy, without dollar. pres
emit or prospective, sparkling a girl
regular and talking about marrying
is a spectacle for God and men. He
should be reasoned with, and if he
will not quit it until he is able to
support wife, and to know whom
he loves, and the difference between
love and chicken pox, he should be
quarantined or put in convent
erected purposely for such cases.
Nine-tenths of the unhappy mar
riages are the result of green human

Commends the Legislature.
Since the Pilot began to defend
the recent session of the Minnesota
legislature from the aspersicns at.
tempted to be cast upon it by the
thoughtless editors of the country
press, we have noted quite change
in the editorial expressions of the
rural press in reference to the work
performed by the recent session. II
| the session had done nothing more
than make the large reduction in
the state appropriations which 1t
did it would be entitled to praise,
but in addition to the reduction in
appropriations the session passed
some very meritorious legislation and
added many good amendments to the
laws already in existence. -Faribault
