Worth Reading.
BY George F. Author.

In Minnesota there is growing
state consciousness, coordination
of effort, which must have far-reach-
ing consequence in the development
of the greatest state in the Union. A
state so rich in natural resources that
mere statistics fail to relate the facts,
state SO ideally situated as to reach
out with one hand to the greatest in.

The Work is Complex.

From the foregoing statement the
work of the department of agriculture
of the university looks like rather
simple thing. On the contrary this
work is complex and far-reaching. It
would not be very difficult to maintain
a college and schools of agriculture
even for student body as large as
that of such institutions in Minnesota,
which, last year, was more than 1900.
But the department is not satisfied
with reaching annually only 1900 out
of the tens of thousands in Minnesota

CHRISTMAS BELLS

When the Christmas bells ring this year it will
not be as ever before in all the years of all the men

land as those bells ring out their peas erst so joyous
to thoughtful people, there will seem to be a refrain
OF sorrow in their ring even as when marriage bells
change to tolIing for the dead
For think of it! For nineteen hundred years
those bells have been rung those carols sung and the
blessed refrain has been, borrowed from the angel
choir. On earth Peace, and to man Good WILL"
As the centuries have come and gone with more
and louder acclaim each year. the anthem has runR
out upon the world. with increasing assurance
have the words Of promise been spoken; with more
and more ostentation has the day been celebrated;
with more and more eloquence have deyout men

out of that same message of Peace on earth and to

where oftenest the message Of Peace on earth and

most fury men and nations are stamping all the re-
cords of good into the ground and from their hearts

Paid--TellS Different Story now Than He
Did Fourteen Months Ago.

Boise. Dec. 22.-The laconsisten.
cies of Governor Alexander are 20
notorious that they hardly excite
comment, but he has made some pub
lie utterances Of late that even excel
any Of his past performances. His
latest imitation Of the crawtish was
at Lewiston. where Ne delivered an
address on the opening day Of the
Livestock show.
Governor Alexander is credited
with having made the statement that
he believed in giving the people
what they want" and 80 In keeping
with that policy he felt that In speak
ing to the stockmen assembled at the
live stock show he must give them
what they wanted" or. in other
words. say the things that would be
pleasing to them, regardless Of how
II harmonized with his official nc.
tions. He wisely surmised that his
veto Of q modest little appropriation
for the promotion Of The Northwest
Livestock association. or the Lewis
ton Livestock show an Il Ia common
ly termed, was not popular with the
people whom he was to address. and
80 he must say something TO over
come that act or his political for
tunes would suffer, and what had he
come all the way y Lewiston for2
He gave them what they wanted All
right. He told them that the Live
Stock Show YVES the greatest thing
ever and that Il ought TO have state
and county aid.

daoity Of a governor making such :

Power & Light company was spermit-

that the commission was warranted

that the Swan Greek company had
