Rochester, Mjnn:;, Oct. 5.—“Senator La Follette was operated upon at St. Mary’s hospital here, the operation lasting about half an hour. The. find- ings were as previously diagnosed, eight stones being removed from the gall bladder, all small. The complica- tions are a slight adhesion of the small intestines to the gall bladder, acute inflammation of the pancreas and enlarged lymphatic glands due to septic material which the gall blad- der contained. The danger will not be over for several days. On account of these complications he stood the operation well and prospects of ulti- | mate recovery are good.” “The operation,” said Dr. Fox, in explanation of the above bulletin, “disclosed exactly what we expected and bears out in every detail the ex- haustive diagnosis of last Friday and Saturday. I cannot set a time when the senator may be pronounced out of danger, but there is no modifica- tion to be made of previous statements that he will be out in three weeks. “The danger as is usual in major operations when vital organs are in- volved—the inflammation of the gall bladder and gall direct—is not exten- sive and the greatest danger at pres- ent lies in the possibility of the in- flammatory area increasing. The dan- ger from septic infection is most re- mote. The appendix is not affected, and in general there is positively no occasion for alarm.” Senator Feels “Sore, but Bully.” Senator La Follette began to rally; from the effects before leaving the operating room and in the hallway, in: answer to the question of Dr. Fox, “How are you feeling, Bob?” the sen- ator replied, “Sore, but bully.” 1his was but a few minutes after the operation. His mind was entirely clear. When he reached his room he asked for Mrs. La Follette, who had been waiting in an adjoining apart- ment, and she went to him at once He told her that he felt very well. She remained a few minutes and then Jleft to send a reassuring message to her children in Madison, on tfie statement of the physicians that the operation was wholly successful. The nausea usually present where the ether is giv- en was not present. Messages of sympathy and tele- grams of inquiry ‘are coming: in from all parts of the country.- It is Sena- tor La Follette’s wish that all pub- licity be given to his case. Bulletins will be issued every two hours or oftener if necessary. Owing to .the widespread public anxiety over the operation the stringent rules of se- crecy regarding all matters at St, Mary’s hospital will be more or less relaxed. The latest bulletin regarding Sena- tor La Follette’s condition says: “The senator has spent practically all the time since the operation con- versing with Mrs. Le Follette and th¢ physicians. Excellent condition. Tem- perature and pulse normal. No pain and very little soreness. He has not slept, but will be given an opportuni- ty shortly.” : EBERHART ON THE ISSUES OF THE CAMPAIGN [Continued from Page 2] economics in all our schools. This should be remedied immediately. The two conservation congresses held in St. Paul have stirred up the interest and enthusiasm all over the state to such an extent that the time is now ripe for introducing these important branches of education in all our pub- lic schools, thus teaching the people of the state how we may conserve our wealth and increase our prosperity. The time has also come when our schools should be taken out of poli- tics and when all our educational offi- placel:sts of the state have been carefully cers should be selected strictly upon their merits and without reference to party affiliations. Immigration. Immigration is another important phase of state development. The im- migration commission should be given more funds and authority so that it may be able to render more assistance in securing settlers and in overcoming obstacles necessarily incident to the de- velopment of new territory. All state land should bear its fair share of the expense in making local improve ments, for it is altogether unjust to ask a settler to endure all the priva- tions of pioneer life. and in addition thereto pay the expenses of improving adjacent public property. Administrative Record. The state administrative officers constitute one great business institu tion. In coming before the people as a candidate for governor it ‘is proper that an account should be’rendered covering my stewardship already ren: dered. -Charges have been'made by my opponents and- the “Kitchen Cabi- net” to the effect that so called busi- ness interests have been permitted to “filch the heritage from the people, ta threaten the integrity of our own courts and debauch our legislatures.” That this “wholesale accusation is: in. tended for purely political ‘effect na one can seriously doubt, but in order to show conclusively that the inter- and efficiently guarded; I shall give 8 lef summary of ‘the most {moortant| .the secretary has collected several ‘and administrative abllity of the state transactions. In doing so 1 desire to give all due credit to the re- spective state officers not only for their efficiency and ability, but also for the kind consideration given me and their earnest co-operation in everything that pertains to the wel fare of the state. Record of Attorney General. Among the brilliant achievements of Republican administration during the past few years is the record made by the attorney general’s office In the so called railroad rate cases and cases in staté courts against the Western Union Telegraph company and the railroad company for taxes, former Attorney General Young and Senator E. S. Durment have been em- ployed as special counsel, but in the numerous important timber and tax cases that have been carried to the United States supreme court Attorney General Simpson and his assistants have conducted the litigation and made the arguments. This is said to be the first instance in which a state has appeared in the United States supreme court without the aid of outside counsel. The total collections made by the attorney general's office from 1905 to July 1, 1910, inclusive, amount to a grand total of $2,330,735.29. But what was more important than the amounts collected, was the sus taining of the timber acts of the state and the power of the state to pass laws of a most stringent character dealing with timber trespassing. Secretary of State. In the office of the secretary of state many important reforms have been instituted by the present in‘ cumbent, Julius A. Schmahl. In the payment of filing fees, the laws have been strictly enforced, and the record of the two years ending July 31, 1910, shows that the state has received near- ly $25,000 more in filing fees than dur- ing the two years preceding. Another enactment for which this department should be given credit is that permit- ting proposed amendments to the con- stitution to be published in at least three newspapers in each county, thereby giving every voter a better] opportunity to become familiar with the provisions of the proposed amend- ments. Another measure enacted by the legislature is the one directing the secretary of state to secure an annual license for every dining and buffet car where liquor is sold while the car is in the state. Through this legislation thousand dollars annually. The en- forcement of the ticket agent license law has been diligently made, and today the state is realizing large sums from this source. The secretary of state, together with the auditor and treasurer, con- stitute the state printing commission, in charge of state printing. The aver- age yearly expenditure for such work during the last eighteen years has been $57,924.61, but the average ex- penditure for the four yearsending| Aug. 1, 1910, was only $55272.12, whereas the average expenditure for the four years just preceding was $85, 089.58. Thus it is shown that while the printing has increased largely as to amount, the ayerage cost has been greatly reduced, . S State Auditor: ‘ Undoubtedly one of the most’ im- portant offices in the state is that of auditor, and the record of that office during the past few years is not sur- passed In the history. of the state. Through the persistent efforts of Audi- tor Iverson and the attorney general, a large amount of swamp lands have been recovered by the state and while the value of the timber upon these lands exceeds a million dollars, it is believed that they also contain a val- uable amount of iron ore. In secur- ing these swamp land grants the state has conducted one of the most im- portant contests before the interior de- partment. Minnesota was the pioneer state in conserving her natural resources, and i8 now reaping its reward. The auditor is the custodian of the per- manent school fuad, which now ag- gregates $26,977,225.14, and it is es- timated that this fund will be in- creased from the royalties on iron ore to the extent of $200,000,000 more. The state school fund is invested in securities bearing from 3 to 4 per cent interest, and only about $100,000 is in the state treasury at this time. It is invested as a permanent trust fund, and only the interest thereon can be used for the purposes of education. While Minnesota has a permanent school fund of over $21,000,000, the states of Wisconsin, Michigan and Iowa have each less than $5,000,000 The policy of the state has been practical conservation, and all future generations will enjoy the prudence guardians of our school fund. The state auditor is the custodian of this fund, and the present: incumbent of the office, Hon. S. G. Iverson, has made an enviable record in-the pro- tection of the interests of the state and in the enforcement, of, all laws pertaining to his office. /X i Railroad and Warehouse Commission. The work of the railroad and ware- house commission and its important bearing on the interests and welfare of the people clearly illustrate the in- creased importance of this depart- ment. Minnesota has now obtained recognition as one of the most.ad- vanced states in the Union in rela- tion to its railroad legislation, and the successful administration of these laws. Its duties are varied and each year increase in ‘'scope and - im- portance, embracing generally- all questions or grievances that may arise between the public and the raflroad companies. The rallroad and warehouse commis- sion has taken an active part in'the trial of the rate cases. It has realized fully that these cases involve some of the most momentous problems -ever presented to any tribunal. - On. the one hand lies the taking from the peo- ple of the state by unjust rates a sum of money beyond computation, and ‘'on the other, depriving. the ¥allroads of the state unjustly of thi I for performing "a _necegsary public service. Between these fWp extremes lles the right medium; wifeh it 1s be- lieved, and hoped by both sides Tn this case, will finally be determined. - With. reference to express rates, Gl et o Bion of the month. - 5 £ commission has- also - rendered thé state valuable services. - After a thor ough inquiry and; investigation, an or der was mode reducing: express rates 20 ‘per cent on merchandise and pro- duce and correcting a number of in. equalities ‘which previously existed. The commission, composed of Judge Ira Mills, C. F. Staples, candidate for re-election this. year, and Elfas 'E Elmquist, ranks in personnel and services rendered with any like body in the entire country, State Highway commlulnn: The state highway commission was organized in January, 1906, in order to meet a great demand for improve ment of the public highways. The theory of road betterment, as at first outlined, contemplated the construc- tion of expensive and permanent roads of stone and gravel; but a careful in:| vestigation of road conditions con- vinced the commission that the in¢ terests of the people could be better served by applying state aid to the general improvement of the ‘common earth roads. This plan has been con sistently carried out, and so far has met the general approval of the peo ple. A marked improvement has been noted in the method of construction by town and county authorities, wha have been informed, advised and in: | structed by the commission, through the medium of ‘correspondence, print: ed instructions and personal visits. Summing "Up. This is a summary of the important issues in this campaign, my position with reference thereto and a brief ac- counting of my short stewardship. As the executive of ‘a great business in stitution I have reported to the board of directors and stockholders. It iz for the people. of the state to judge whether or not I have discharged my duty faithfully and conscientiously, sc that I may be deserving of their re newed confidence. Like -all others who have occupied important public positions I have made mistakes. Na man ever received Dbetter treatment at the hands ofthe public, and while some criticism may have been unjust I have always consoled ‘myself with the thought that.unjust criticism could not injure and_just criticism was an invaluable guide to follow in the path of duty. The press of the state has been especially friendly and I wish to express my appreciation of its loyal and unselfish support. Whatever may have been the shortcomings of this ad- ministration, I can go before the peo ple of the state with the assurance that I have endeavored to give them the very best service of which I was capable; that I have labored diligently to learn the needs of the state'and its great -opportunities for development and that by reason of such experience 1 have become better fitted to serve in the future than in the pngt. Te merit the confidence and good will of the people has been my sole ambition and I leave my case in their hands feeling that their verdict will be just The true greatness of our state can- not be measured in terms of”wealth, territory, commerce or industry,” but rather in the prosperity and happiness of the people, the purity of the homes, the efficiency of the school$, the sanc tity of the churches, the enforcement of equal rights’fo all and’“special privileges -to none, and the 'onesty and integrity of our citizenship,. Our work at the polls should therefore be an endorsement of what is ‘highest, cleanest and most intelligent in American citizenship. True, we can: not expect to eradicate selfishness and approach perfection, but we have a right to expect that the public con: science shall continue to quicken and civic virtue. continue to spread, and that character, honesty, integrity and ability shall be the standard by which personal worth is determined; that the record of every public officfal shall resemble a torch, that is, the more it is shaken the more it will burn. We have a right to expect that justice shall be meted out to all alike, and that every law of the land shall be enforced against the strong and the weak, the rich and the poor equally and without fear or favor, and to that end I pledge my earnest and hearty co-operation.

RATE HEARINGS TO CONfINUE Interstate Commerce Commission So Decides at Conference. 3 ‘Washington, ‘Oct. 5.—Proposed in- creases in freight rates over the lines of practically every rallroad in the United States formed the subject of an allday seséion of the interstate commerce commission. - It ‘was the first formal conference of the commis- sion following the summer recess and as the rate cases, presenting what'is generally conceded to be the biggest problem that the commission has ever been called upon to solve, were set for discussion ‘every member of the federal body was present. ‘So far as the rate cases are concerned the only conclusion reached was that a further hearing shall be held in” Washington in connection with proposed advanced rates on Eastern railroads” and that the inquiry in the West shall be re- sumed in Chicago.” The Washington hearing was set for Oct. 12. The date for the Chicago hearing was-not fixed although it was stated officially that the session will be held the latter part Opposes Pardon of Mains. New York, Oct. 5.—Mrs. Helene An- nis, widow. of William K. Annis, who 'was 'killed by Captain Peter .C. Hains, Jr., now serving a sentence in Sing) Sing, will go‘to: Albany to oppose an ‘application for a pardon recently made to: Governor Hughes in Hains’ behalf 'y his father, General Peter C. Hains. DAVIDSON WILL NOT INTERFERE ‘Governor Thinks Sheriff Did Duty in Deitz Case. FLOODED WITH MESSAGES Telegrams From Widely Scattered Points Pouring Into Executive of- fices “Pleading That He Take a . Hand in the Matter—Resents the Interference of People Outside the Stats of Wisconsin. . Madison, Wis,, 'Oct. 5.—Governor James O. Davidson is flooded with telegrams calling upon him to inter- fere in the Deitz case at Cameron dam. They came from all over North- ern and Western Wisconsin and even from Minnesota, one being signed by & number of St. Paul citizens. The- authors of the telegrams and their contents were not divulged, the governor persisting in his refusal to get excited over the matter. “Of course,” sald the governor, “while I deeply regret that the Deitz girl was shot, I am persuaded the sheriff did his duty in his endeavor to close up this whole notorious case. Sheriff Madden merits praise for his determination to uphold the law. The capture of Deitz at any time undoubt- edly will mean bloodshed, whether it is attempted by deputies or militia. 1 am not going to call out the militia unless it is pretty thoroughly demon- strated that the local authorities are unable to cope with the situation, I believe Sheriff Madden knows his duty and is firmly trying to do it.” Resents Outside Interference. Governor Davidson intimated that he rather resented the ‘“interference” in ‘the case -of “outsiders,” meaning the St. Paul citizens. He takes the position that Wisconsin is able to en- force her own laws. - HE SHAPE-MAKER is a new model in suits; for young men particularly.

He has not been officially asked for an opinion on the power of the sheriff in such cases. Legal opinion in the capitol, how- ever, is strongly on the side of Sheriff Madden, provided the facts bear out the sheriff’s explanation of the shoot- ing. “The sheriff can go to any extreme necessary to enforce the law,” said one official. “It' he errs in judgment he may be brought before the governor- for re- moval.” WOUNDED GIRL IS WORSE Peritonitis Develops in Elmyra Deitz’ 3 . Case. Ashland, Wis,, Oct. 5.—Peritonitis has developed from ‘the wound of El- myra Deitz, daughter of John F. Deitz of Cameron dam, who-was shof by a posse in charge of Sheriff Madden on the road to Winter with her brothers last Saturday, and who was brought Suits $20 to $35. Overcoats $18 to $35.

Dodd, the chief surgeon at St. Joseph’s hospital, where the girl is a patient, said that the new com- plication made the girl’s condition critical. However, her temperature had fallen two degrees and in view of her excellent constitution the outlook 18 hopeful. ; No operation will be attempted oth- er than possibly a superficial incision to drain the wound. The girl has be- gun spitting blood, which the physi- cians regard as an unfavorable symp- tom. Two new deputies, Ire Phillip and George Arnscn, have Jjust arrived here and are on guard in the office of the hospital, where they challenge all.visitors. MILL * CITY" MAN JAILED Photographer Was Riding Toward the Deitz Home. - Winter, Wis,, Oct. 5.—Sheriff Mad- den’s “martial law” has operated. George Luxton, a Minneapolis news- paper photographer, was arrested with a Winchester rifle pointed full -at his head, while he was riding in a rig on the country road leading to the home of John F. Deitz. A deputy sheriff, Bruce Wiley, climbed into the buggy, carrying his rifie under one arm and a revolver in his other hand, and drove Luxton back to Winter. Here he was ordered out of the rig and to a cell in the town jail, with the long barrel of the deputy’s Winchester gently pressing him from behind, and placed under lock and key. Fifteen minutes later Fred Thor- bahn, in charge of the deputies here, let him out on his pledge that he would not attempt to visit John Deitz. Financial Aid for Deitz. St.- Paul, Oct. 5.—Local interest in the Deitz case, the vast majority of which is sympathy for the Cameron dam.man, is high. The way in which Elmyra Deitz, who was shot last Sat- urday, was treated, has aroused much sympathy in St. Paul. Already 'sub- scriptions have been started in some of the stores in the down town dis- trict for the Deitz family, both of medi- cal aid and for aid in'the legal fight, which every one believes Deitz will be compelled to make sooner or later. The Major’s Value. “Major Bunks,” said a veteran, “was & pompous chap. The boys had a good deal of fun once over his exchange. *It-seems that on a very dark night a stalwart Confederate took the major prisoner. This fact, together with the narrative of the prisoner's return to camp, was' signaled to headquarters tersely: 2 < **‘Major - Bunks, captured during night march, exchanged later for two plugs tobacco.’” Z Cash Or Easy Payments Will Buy a Stove at our Store Then tco there’s a downright satisfaction, ray nothing of warmth and comfort, in having a heater that will burn any kind of fuel with economy and success.
