SLUR OF 'SEC, BAKER . - |f CAUSES INDIGNATION New York, Oct. 19.—Organizations of patriotic Americans verywhere have been prompt to denounce and protest against the speech of Newton D. Baker, secretary of war, in Jersey City on Monday night, in which, as a defense of President Wilson’s Mexi- can policy, Mr. Baker likened the lawless raiders of Villa and Carranza to the heroes of the American revo- lutionary army. The Empire State society of the Sons of the American Revolution, in a meeting here, adopt- ed a resolution declaring that ‘“We, the descendanty of the patriots of the Revolution, condemn in the strongest trms the unpatriotic language of the secretary of war.” Minneapolis, Oct. 19.—Minneapolis descendants of Revolutionary soldiers, veterans of the Civil war and stu- dents of American history yesterday unanimously condemned the state- ments made Monday night at Jersey City by Secretary of War Newton D. Baker that the revolutionists of Mex- ico were to be compared to the soldiers of Washington’s army at Valley Forge. Secretary Baker in his speech said the men of the Valley Forge camp sometimes looted church- es and mistreated clergymen. Major Silas H. Towler, himself a veteran officer of the Civil war and a descendant of several Revolutionary soldiers, was outspoken in his con- demnation of the sentiments express- ed by Secretary Baker. “The soldiers at Valley Forge were like all other who served under ‘Washington, honest patriots fighting for a great cause, and to compare them with the bandits who under the name of revolutionists have made an inferno of Mexico, is nothing less than a sacrilege,” he said. “The world knows they were not bagd}ts and that they were not riff raff.” HIS ODD YACHTING COSTUME.

While in no way eccentric, he had one little peculiarity that, I am sure, all the older yachtsmen will re- call. This was his habit of wearing a white shirt and a pair of blazing red suspenders when sailing his yacht, his head being covered with a straw hat. By this radical departure from the or- thodox costume he was easily made the most conspicuous figure around the tiller of his boat in every important match in which he sailed. His most active yachting period was from 1877 to 1893, during which period he was thrice the leading man in the syndicates formed to build respectively the Puritan, the Mayflower and the Volunteer, each a successful defender of the America’s cup against the. Eng- lish challengers. Always a daring yachtsman in so far as taking up with what were looked upon as innovations, he did not hesi- tate in the case of the Puritan to ac- cept the designs of Edward Burgess, even though they called for a marked change from the old fashioned Ameri- can sloop in that the keel was an oak stick fifty-six feet long and twenty-six inches square, to which was attached the lead keel of forty-five feet. In 1893 he was interested in the un- lucky but speedy Jubilee. When she was outclassed by the Vigilant he lost his dominating interest in yachting.— Spur. Special Suit Sale!

Box 275, Bemidji. 7-1021 Here is a fragment of Frederick W. Seward’s story of his father's pur- chase of Alaska from Russia for the United States in 1867, as told in “Rem- iniscences of a Wartime Statesman and Diplomat:”* On the evening of Friday, March 29, Seward was playing whist in his par- lor with some of his family, when the Russian minister was announced. “I have a dispatch, Mr, Seward, from my government by cable. The em- peror gives his consent to the cession. Tomorrow, if you like, I will come to the department and we can enter upon the treaty.” Seward, with a smile of satisfaction, pushed away the whist table, saying: “Why wait till tomorrow, MTr. Stoeckl? Let us make the treaty to- night!"” “But your department is closed. You have no clerks, and my secretaries aye scattered about the town. “Never mind that,” responded Se- ward. “If you can muster your lega- tion together before midnight you will find me awaiting you ‘at the depart- ment, which will be open and ready for business.” \ In less than two hours afterward light was streaming out ~f ‘the win- dows of the department ' state, and apparently business was ing on as at midday. By 4 o'clock. ,n Saturday morning the trenty was ~ engrossed, signed, sealed and ready for transmis- sion by the president-to the senate. There was need of this haste in or- der to have it acted upon before the end of the session, now near at hand. Dafactive Paae Tom Smart, Bemidji, |4 PHYSICIANS, SURGEONS KERHKK KR KKK KKK * DR.
