Milwaukee, May 2S.-When Valentia
Blatz died at st Paul Saturday night there
WAS fulfilled the warming of a strange pre-
sentiment that had lowered in his mind
for more than a half score of years. Mr..
Blatz was not by nature a very supersti-
GUS man, nor was he averse to railroad
travel except to the extent that almost
every one dislikes to be iostled about in
the cars. But as far back as twelve years
ago he contemplated m liking a trip to the
Pacific coast accompanied by his wife, and
after p%ostponing it ron time to time he
finally gave it up, or rather put it off in
definetly. He did not hesitate TO tell some
of the people who were nearest to him
through ties of relationship md friendship
that he feared the journey would result
disastrously to him in some manner not
quite clear. Every year since he had
discussed with members Of his family a
prospective trip to California, but, as one
of his employees said yesterday, she put it
aft from month to month Ind from year
to year, always expressing the conviction
that evil would befall him and as a result
of it." None of the persons to whom he
expressed himself on this subject pinned
any faith to presentments, but now the
forecast which he made of his " end is
brought back to them with startling vivid
ness. He may not have taken the trip
from which he was never to return to
Milwaukee aliva but tn efact that his
w,fe's health w1llsp1 q he felt it his
duty to take Id coast. where he
tARugktit would improve.

schools over the state will be self-support-
ing. In Morton county all the schools out
side OF handan are already supporting
themselves, and all the school tax the citi-
zens OF that county have to pay is the 2
mil state tax. Last year the apportior-
ment OF funds in the state amounted to an
average of Sc for each child, and this year,
1'spite the hard times, the average will be

there will be a quarter OF a million of dol

Steele Ozone: In Il general discussion
with some of our citizens of all political
opinions Major Murphy expressed the
opinion that the coming campaign would
be a holly contested one, and that the
various parts of the state whcro he has

then he thinks it will DO necessary tor all
sincere republicans to lose no time be-

The Major is right. The ticket nomin-

Sam Small's Lecture.

The opera house filled up last Fri
day night to hear the Rev. Sam w.
Small deliver his Lecture as Our
Civilization a Failure~
The speaker is an orator OF national
reputation. He is a man OF broad
liberal education and impresses his
hearers at once with his earnest style
and forcible utterance.
He said that he was loath to ask the
question contained in his subject, be.
cause the American people had done so
much and their achievements we're 80
great that it seemed like rank pessi-
mism to PROFOUND such question to
such an optimistic people, but, never.
theless, there we're several dangers
which menaced this land OF the free
and home OF the brave.
One great danger was lurking in the
feeling prevailing among certain
classes that God has nothing 10 do
with this government-that God is
not in the constitution, us Ingersoll
argued, He said that the history OF
the world showed that no nation
could forget God and prosper He ex-
coriated Ingersoll and other desecra-
tors of the Christian Sabbath. Man
had not yet reached that high degree
OF civilization Of which he was suscep-
tible, and il the American people
could not solve the problem God
would turn this nation over to the
Chinese, Africans or some other peo-
pie which we least expect, as he did
Canaan to the Israelites.
The greatest danger to any govern
ment was intemperance. Mr.. Small
certainly went for the American sa-
loon. He is at home on this question
and made good impression on his
hearers by his burning eloquence and
unique philosophy. His humorous
illustrations were we'll received and
his points loudly applauded. Mr..
Small is positive character and his
argument, clothed in his fresh, origi
nal diction, is almost irresistible.
He was introduced by Gov. Taylor,
who said "Ladies and gentlemen,
you have often beard of small men
with great names, but have the hon.
or to introduce a great man with a
Small name"
Mr.. Small made national reputa-
ton in his younger days by his "Old
81" wit and philosophy. Every seat
was taken.
