| } | | M’GARRY OUTLINES HIS POSITION Writes Open Letter to Charles H. Warner Stating Attitude on Public Measures. The Herald-Review is in receipt of the following letter from P. H. Mc- Garry, candidate for the Republican nomination. for the legislature, to Hon. Charles H. Warner. The letter is self explanatory: Duluth, Minn., Sept. 9, 1912. Hon- Charles H. Warner, Aitkin, Minnesota, My dear Mr. Warner: Your letter to Mr. J. B. Spencer of Walker, requesting him to cal] my attention to the report that I was opposing your Candidacy, or, to use! your own language, “knocking you,” and if I did not immediately cease my opposition you would retaliate, hhas been received. The fact is, Mr. Warner, the North-| ern Minnesota Developement associ- ation has been largely instrumental in bringing out your opposition and is aiding Mr. Brusegaard’s campaign. I am pledged to the same measures Mr. Brusegaard is asked to advocate by the Developement association, andj @s a matter of fact, Mr. Brusegaard and myself have pledged a unity of action on measures deemed by the association to be of the utmost im- Portance to this section of the state. This being true, there is no way open for me to conduct a canvass ex cept by linking our campigns and as- sisting each other at the primaries. Your opponent, Mr. Brusegaard, is mo doubt, very well known to you an therefore, you know him to be a man of high mora] and intellectual stand- ing and a man who will not seek or accept any aid or assistance except such as comes from a very interest- ed Constituency, that at all times has the right to accept or reject its as- Pirants for office. This being the case you have for opposition a splendid maa, advocatmg splendid measures: and you need have no fear of any unpleasant personalities in the cam- paign. I am writing this at as early a dat as possible, so that you may clear- ly understand my position, and, fear- ing you may not be home to receive this letter as soon as yow should, I am sending a copy to each of the many newspapers about the district, so that your friends and mine may know my position, Very truly yours, P. H. Mc@ARRY- E. C. KILEY. Democratic Candidate for the Legis- lature from the Fifty-Seeond District. WORK IS STARTED ON NEW CUT-OFF Canadian Northern Building From Baudette to Pelican Lake on American Side. Canadian Northern surveyors have started work on two cut-offs from Duluth and Port Ar- thur to Winnipeg. These cut-offs are designated to do away with the necessity of stopping trains from Port Arthur and Duluth each time they cross the border in order that government officials may inspect pas- sengers and baggage. The present Canadian Northern linefrom Duluth joins the Port Ar- thur main line at Fort Francis, op- posite International Falls in Minne sota, The through line then goes west to Rainy River where it crosses to Baudette again leaving the state at Internationa] Boundary. A passen- ger from Duluth to Winnipeg croses the boundary three times while a passenger from Port Arthur or points east croses twice. This nec- essitates inspection by custom and 4mmigration officials and as a conse- | | sation quence the road finds that its through trains lose too much time. was fed.

MORRIS O'BRIEN. Democratic Candidate for Re-Elec- tion to the County Board from the Second Commissioner District. MANAHAN HERE vc LAST WEDNESDAY | Progressive bette Candidate for Congressman-at-Large Dis- cusses Political Issues. James Manahan of Minneapolis, progressive Republican candidate for congressman-at-large, gave one of his characteristic addresses here last Wednesday evening, outlining the po- litical evils which he belives exists at the present time and the remedies he would like to see adopted. Manahan reviewed his connection, with the Sundberg cases, grilling the railroads and trusts. He advocat- ed the direct election of every offic- er from the president down, and pointed out the arbitrary powers now reposed in the federal juuges, reiter- ating his conviction that they should |be elected by direct vote of the people. The progressive Republican candi- date is an orator of exceptional] abil- ity and is proving his adaptability by discontinuing his meetings in the halls and holding street corner talks to the crowds. Since leaving here he has visited Hibbing, Chisholm and Virginia, holding open-air meetings, and will continue the same proced- jure during the closing week of the primary fight in St. Paul and Min- nesota. The monograph has been pre- neapolis. pared by Don D. Lescohier and Arth- ur O. Garrison, and is part of the bi- ennial report to be submitted to the next legislature. The report merely points out the coincidences and differences of the laws already in effect and applies Minnesota conditions to some of the problems to be met in framing an adequate compensation law. It lays emphasis on the necessity of per- manency of a fund so that a widow promised an income of $10 a week for 5 years, will not lose it at the end of the second year, through bankruptcy of the employer. The report shows that France, Germany, Italy, Hungary and the Netherlands guarantee the payment of the com- pensation. CYRUS M. KING Candidate for the Democratic N mination for Lieutenant Governor. Profit Shown by Record. Peter Peterson of Moose Lake, fol- lowing the advice of authorities at the Minnesota state experimental sta- tion at Grand Rapids, kept a record on five cows in his dairy herd. and reveals his figures covering a per- iod of one year, the cows receiving the same care and feed, which was pasture in the summer and clover in the winter.

October 27 will be Tuberculosis Sunday in the churches of the state, in accordance with the wishes of the state board of health, which has tak- en up an active campaign against the disease and is attempting to se cure a general observation day throughout the state. Last year the pastors of almost ‘every church in Minnesota chose for their themes subjects pertaining to tuberculosis, and while the results were gratifying, the health board will try this year to get every church of- ficial interested in the movement. - The following article appears in the latest pulletin of the state board of health: ‘Churches and religious societies to the number of at least 100,000 will be urged to give special attention to the prevention of tuberculosis on Sunday, Oct. 27, or on some day dur- the week preeceding or the week following that date. This season has been set apart and designated as the Third National Association for the “That this isa vital problem among church congregations is evidenced by statistics which the national associa- tion gathered last year, which show that 10 per cent of all deaths among church members are caused by tuber culosis. Based on these figures and on the mortality statistics of the cen- sus bureau, over 52,000 of the 33,- 000,000 communicants in the churche in the United States die from tubercu- tosis every year. Thie figure assumes that the death~ registration area applies to all churchgoers when, asa matter of fact, the rate would prob- ably be higher. “The churches of Minnesota in 1910 aind 1911 gave quite genera] assent to this movement. of the| study and prevention of tuberculosis. | given a message of health and hope.” Wanted to Hunt All Day.

Captain William Treager, for more than thirty years a member of the Minneapolis fire department, was instantly killed and Tillerman Thomas Wilmout and Driver Brzenki were slightly injured when Truck No. 9 collided with a street car. The truck was answering a second alarm from the Webster-Whipple Lumber company, which was destroyed, entail- ing a loss of $20,000, when the acci- dent occurred. As the truck turned into Central avenue from Fifth street its wheels became caught in the tracks and in spite of the efforts of Driver Brzen- ski, who managed to pull the horses aside, the big truck plunged into the oncoming car. Captain Treager was thrown from the truck and the heavy wheels passed over his chest. The other two men were knocked from their seats, but were thrown clear of the truck. NEW DEPOT FOR ST. PAUL Railroad Heads Agree on Plans for Union Station. A new Union depot, costing between $4,000,000 and $5,000,000, with an out- lay of $4,000,000 more for land and trackage, will be built in St. Paul at once. Presidents and vice presidents of seven roads coming into St. Paul agreed on this at a conference in the office of James J. Hill. The engineers of all the railroads will meet in St. Paul in a few days to go over the details of the plans submitted by Mr. Hill to the other railroad men. The plans submitted by roads and only a few changes likely will be made by the engineers. All the railroad men who met here will return to St. Paul on Oct. 8 to enter into the actual contract for the building of the station. vas at Minnesota Capitol. A $10,000 painting fell 100 feet from the dome of the state capitol at St. Paul to the first landing, the hot, moist weather having loosened the white lead that held it to the wall. | A small part of the plaster also fell. The right three-quarters of the pic- ture was torn from the fragment that remained on the walls, but Julius |Schmahl, secretary of state, believes |the painting can be saved by repair- ing. The painting was the second of the | four $10,000 panels representing ‘“Civ- ilization of the Northwest,” by Edward | Simmons, the noted American artist, who did much of the mural decorating in the library of congress at Washing- ton. STORM DOES MUCH DAMAGE International Falls, Minn., and Fort Frances, Ont., Suffer. A terrific wind and electric storm {did $100,000 damage in International Falls and Fort Frances, Ont. No one was injured. Lightning struck the office of the Fort Frances Times, completely de- stroying it and contents. The loss is at least $25,000. The property was owned by Editor Osborn. Another building valued at $20,000 was set on fire by sparks from the Times build- ing. For a time fire brands wafted across the river threatened the city with destruction. The refuse conveyor at the Interna- tional Lumber company planing mill was blown down and destroyed. Many plate glass windows were destroyed. ONE MAN PERISHES IN FIRE Thirty Other Minneapolis Lodgers Have Narrow Escape. Maurice Anderson was killed by suffocation during a fire at the War- wick hotel at Minneapolis.

(Special Correspondence.) St. Paul, Sept. 9—The “Big Bull Moose” has come and gone, the state fair is only a memory, trouble has broken out in the Democratic organ- ization ranks, discord threatens the woman’s suffrage movement in the state and the candidates for state offices are hustling as they never did before. The primaries, you know, take place Sept. 17. All this and more Politically represents the week’s do- ings and in some respects they go to make up as strenuous a seven days’ work period as the politicians have |seen in years. Colonel Roosevelt's visit to the Twins, as far as the cor- diality of his reception was concerned, was on a par with previous efforts. Thousands saw and heard him at the state fair grounds. For an hour and under a burning sun he labored in the characteristic Roosevelt way and the thousands who also broiled. cheered him to the echo. In Minneapolis as big a crowd lined the streets along which he passed and crowded the West hotel in an effort to get near him. If anything he received a heartier reception in Minneapolis than he did in St. Paul. The crowds were not so demonstrative in the Cap- ital City. The reception here had one noticeable feature. The big fellows | were conspicuous by their absence. a Hope beat high in the breasts of some of the opposition to the state | Republican organization that the colo- nel would pick out for caustic mention those high in its councils and sug- gest their defeat through the medium of the field that is hard on Governor Eberhart’s heels, but they were disap- | pointed. He studiously avoided any reference to the state game or those | concerned. The Progressive commit- tee of fifty, whose job is to see that Roosevelt electors are named and that a Progressive ticket is put in the field in the event of victory for the enemy | at the primaries, received his approv- | al. Though the committee attended | the reception given Mr. Roosevelt he | did not discuss state plans with them. In the opinion of the state “Bull Moosers” the colonel’s visit to the ‘fair has strengthened his cause in Minnesota, but that remains to be seen. As far as yours truly is con- cerned close observation compels the } much larger following in Minnesota | than some think. | +t & Governor Eberhart is not a “Bull | Mooser”—I will be willing to wager that his vote when cast will be for | tendance upon the colonel in St. Paul that attracted general attention. His excellency was determined that one of the first citizens of the land should have all that was coming to him in | the way of official courtesy and he was there from the start. He was the first to meet him at the depot, rode | with him, saw him safely to the fair | the evening luncheon. No, there is nothing wrong with Governor Eber- hart when he wants to do things. | | Some people may think him slow and | colorless, but he has a happy faculty | of being on the job when needed. | a ee | As I said the state fair is now but |@ memory, but it promises just the | same to go down in history as a rec- |ord breaker from the standpoint of | attendance. The first day was a |corker. One will have to admit, though, that if it was not for patron- | age from the cities the fair would not |pay. On Monday, which was Labor | | day, over 100,000 people attended the fair and the majority were from the cities. The elimination of the pass and the consequent increase in revy- ;emue has brought one thing to the front and that is the admission fee of 50 cents should be reduced. The state | fair is supposed to be educational, not | mere amusement. payers have poured millions of dollars into its coffers and there is no reason | why those who desire to see the re- ; sources of the state should not be al- | lowed to do so for a nominal sum. | | One farmer who attended the fair |exactly $5 for admission and a like | Sum was contributed to the grand | stand. Besides he paid his railroad | amd hotel fare, not to speak of other incidentals, which brought the whole | up to a sum in excess of $40. | t+ + The word hades hardly expresses the term that a few are using in can- nection with the row that threatens to rend the state Democratic organiza- tion. Republicans were supposed to be the only ones with trouble in their ranks, but from all accounts the state Democracy is entering upon a cam- paign that will be fraught with mucn discord. National Committeeman F. B. Lynch seems to be the chief bone: frank statement that Wilson has a/| | the Taft electors—but he danced at-! and Minneapolis last week in a way | grounds and broke bread with him at | In the past the tax- | with his family told me it cost him |- of contention. Lynch, it is claimed,- set out to frame up a ticket that would be invincible and the fact that several filed for the nomination be- fore he ot busy did not disturb him- in the least. ¥ + + + Congressman Anderson of the First district, whose principal bid for fame is the dethronement of James A. Taw- ney, is not going to let anybody get the best of him when it comes to a Progressive platform. He announces that he is for the recall all down the line, the initiative and referendum and direct elections and nominations. He wants publicity of campaign contribu- tions and expenses. A nonpartisan tariff commission is also one of his ideas. Anderson was in St. Paul last week and paid a visit to the state capi- tol. He is confident that he will be Tenominated and elected.
