Uncle Sam will find no trouble in running his face.—Barnesville Record-Review. No Fault of the Governor. If some means for consolidated rural schools is not adopted in the near future in this state it will be no fault of Minnesota’s governor. Gov.

Senator Nelsons’ Insult. Some time ago the St. Cloud Com- mercial club indorsed President Taft’s reciprocity agreement with Canada and the secretary was in- structed to notify Senators Nelson and Clapp, respectfully soliciting their support of the same. Senator Clapp responded in courteous but non-committal terms. Senator Nel- son who is strongly opposed to the agreement, replied in this curtly in- sulting manner: “Have you noticed in the markets reports how the price of wheat has been going down for the last week or ten days, since the reci- procity agitation began?” Has Sen- ator noticed that the price of wheat has been going down for about two years? Jume 3, 1909, wheat in Min- neapolis closed at $1.33; June 29, 1910, at $1.17; Jan. 4, 1911, $1.07; March 6, 1911, $1.003%. Has he noticed that wheat in Winnipeg.has; also declined since the agreement? Has he ever noticed that the price of wheat is fixed in Liverpool, based on supply and demand? Secretary Nel- son acted the Joe Bailey. role in his shurlish reply to a respectful letter. —=8t, Cloud Times. i crashed through the ceiling of the ! elevator into the throng of humanity, | Tillie Buesing, aged twenty-four; Anna {in the car who:were unhurt was due Boat Factories—One. | to the. position they occupied, out of | the path of the falling counterweight. { It is said that the impact of the car | at the bottom -of the shaft was not FOUR KILLED IN' ELEVATOR DROP Scene of Tragedy.
