CLOUD. The first notices in the St. Cloud meeting of the Northern Minuesota Development association have been sent out. They fix the dates as Deec. 8 and 9, that the delegates wnay at- tend the Land Show in St. Paul which follows, killing two birds with the same throw of dollars. Good roads will be ine p\-incipal’ topic and the announcement closes with the admonition “vote for the one-mill tax good roads amendment, Nov. 5, 1912.” St. Lows coun‘y will be at St. Cloud with a big delegation of boosters and it will vote right on | this amendment which means a con- tribution of $250,000 from th's coun- ty to the good roads cause. By their works shall ye know them, and St. Louis county asks for uo oth- er judgment of its sincerity, loyalty and public spirit. It always sends a full quota to these meetings and then acts upon the decisions the associa- tion reaches and puts in practice what it learns. The St. Cloud meetiug should be a hummer. It comes in the off-year, that time of peace when the wise pre- pare to scrap. This is the time to Jay in ammunition, to organize, to drill, to become of one mind, to frame tactics and to be ready to act as an army. No better place could have been chosen for the meeting. St. Cloud is central, easy to reach has sufficient hotel accommodations, good halls and the sort of men who do things. It is well worth the seeing in itsel* and has the proper atmosphere fo pro- mote action. It is none too early for the various counties to begin boosting for Lhis: occasion and Duluth can be ~ounted as in on the shove from now on.—| Duluth News Tribune. LONDON ELECTS NEW LORD MAYOR. Having been an alderman for thir- teen years and filled the office of sher- iff for one term, Sir Thomas Boor Crosby, wealthy merchant and finan- cier, today went through the solemn farce of being elected Lord Mayor of the City of London. He will be formally installed in office on No- vember 9 ~when the time-honored pageant known as the “Lord Mayor’s Show” will take place. Unlike all other great municipali- ties, London’s Lord Mayor is not chosen by the people, though there was a time—some 200 or more years ago—when they really were elected by the citizens. But the aldermen, who are elected for life, decided that a position so exalted as that of Lord Mayor should not be thrown open to outsiders and made dependent on popular favor. So they fixed things up so that every alderman, if he lives long enough, is assured of becoming Lord Mayor when his turn comes. When Sir Thomas Vesey Strong was elected last year, Sir Thomas Crosby was “next,” and now it is his turn to take the civic chair.

BEATRICE MILLS, Librarian. THE AUTOCRAT OF THE BREAKFAST F. M. PENDERGAST, President}Producers'Co-operative Ass’n. Bemidji, Minnesota. Dear Sir: The system pleases the aldermen and does not make much difference to anybody else. The office of Lord Mayor has long since been shorn of its once great powers and has become a mere figurehead billet, though it is invested with more fictitious ‘lignity than any other post in England. No more violent contrast is to be found the world over than tha: ex- isting between the various duties of the Lord Mayor. Theoretically, at least, the King of Great Britain and Ireland and Emperor of India cannot enter the city of London without his consent. Yet he spends a consider- able part of each day dispensing jus- tice upon the inebriates and other petty offenders who have broken the peace of the square mile of territory over which he rules. In addition to his duties as a magistrate he is re- quired to attend probably five hun- dred public and semi-public dinners, balls, receptions and meetings of var- ious kinds during the year he spends in the high office. For these duties he receives a salary equal to that of the president of the United States s [ : [ = ’ s s ] and twice as much as that of thei' g ’ s ¢ ] s s ] ’ [ ) supreme power of some of his early predecessors. The Mayor who did fealty to Henry III, for instance, had the temerity to add, “My lord, so long as you unto us will be a good lord and king, we will be faithful and duteous unto you.” Then there was the Norman Mayor who, being inter- rupted by a member of the mob when reading what would now correspond to the Riot act, merely ordered the offender to be taken into a neighbor- ourists who know the triumphs and troubles, pleasures and punctures on the road, in- clude in their equipment Prime Minister of Great Britain.
