TOWNE's Old MAN OFTHEsEA.

Candidate Towne is finding the A. p.
A. q veritahle Old Man OF the Sea.
When MIR. Towne began to lay his pipes
for the congressional nomination. he
found an opponent in old Mr.. .. ID.
Kinney, who aspired TO the same honor.
The A. p. A. had demonstrated its
owe in Duluth in the spring election.
1t had elected the entire CITY ticket. 1t
was generally conceded that the eandi-
date for congress of the Republicans
this year should come from Duluth.
The key Of the situation this year was
the capture of the Duluth delegation
to the congressional convention. The
A. z. A. held the key. Mr.. Kinney was
advised by his friends to solicit their
support. He did not hesitate to say
that he had no sympathy with Apism,
and If its support was necessary for the
domination. he did not want it.
Mr.. Towne, however, was less scru-
pulous. and courted the Apists assidu-
ously. The result was the convention
was controlled entirely by the Apists.
and Towne was given their hearty and
unanimous support, gaining for him
tuC dSlCSdliON HUN liuG COutIlys diltt
thereby securing for him the Republi-
can nomination.. MIR. Towne soon be-
a to lind that there were two sides to
that question. and that there were a
large number of his constituents in the
district who were bitterly opposed to
the Apists and their policy, and that
what he had gained in one direction lie
would probably lose i'll another.
He thereupon began to back water
and deny that he had any sympathy
for OF utilization with the Apists. This
naturally offended the latter body, and
their organ, Liberty" has been pour
ing hot shot into Mr.. Towne ever since
his card OF denial was published. We
do not see how Mr.. Towne is going to
shake the Old Man of the Sea off his
shoulders, but we suggest to him that
Sinbad at last found it necessary to get
the monster drunk to get rid Of him.
We do not see but Mr.. Towne will be
driven to the adoption of Sinbad's

ODD FELLOWS EVENT.
FORTY FIFTH ANNIVERSARY
e DE LODGE NO. ?
Celebrated Last Night, Some OF
the Charter Members Being
Present.

ST. Paul Lodge No. 2. l. o. o. f.,
celebrated last night the forty-tifth
anniversary of the granting of its char
ter. There was 8 full attendance of the
members, all of whom will long remem-
Der the occasion as an extremely
pleasant and enjoyable one. After
the regular lodge meeting a recess
was taken, n the members adjourned
to another room where a banquet was
spread. aud under its cheering influence
they listened to entertaining remin-
iseences of the early history of their
l0fge. Among those who spoke were
b. w. Brunsou, of the original
charter members; John Harrington. who
joined the lodge in 1851; Judge Brill, A.
l.. Bolton, c. P. Nixon. Romano
Sheire and w. K. Johnson.
Mr. JOhnSOn's address contained a
brief history of tine formation of the
lodge. 1t was as follows:
"On July 10, 1919, C. K. Smith, B. w.
Brunson, John Dunshee. b. w. Lott.
John Condor M j. B. Coty. then
residents of the town of st. Paul. in the
territory of Minnesota, petitioned the
grand sire of the l. q. o. F. for a char
ter for a lodge of Odd Fellows. they all
being members of the order, with regu-
lar cards. The petition was received
and a charter duly granted, and
bearing date the 22d OF Septem.
Der. lS49, and Brother John G. Potts,
the district deputy grand sire of all of
this Northwestern territory. was CON.
mlsSloned TO proceed to st. Paul and
institute the lodge. Brother Potts re-
sided at the time in Galena, Ill. and.
owing to the slow means OF travel in
those primitive days, did not receive his
commission until tot late in the season
to reach st. Paul that fall and institute
the lodge. so them matter had to be de-
layed until the next spring, when. on
May 5, 1850, st. Paul Lodge No. Q was
duly instituted in due and ancient form,
according TO the ceremonies and customs
OF our order. For five and forty years,
amid all the storms and vicisstitudes of
changing Ii tickle fortune, amid the
trying times CT civil war and financial
crises that have marked those %eventful
years. old No. 2 has never lowered her
standard. but regularly, week in and
week out, month after month and year
after year., her faithful members have
continued to meet and carry OF the grand
principles OF our beloved order, and
today she stands the oldest lodge in this
grand jurisdiction"
The anniversary, strictly speaking,
occurred last Saturday, out it was de
cided to defer the celebration of it until
the regular meeting night.
