The Great Contest.

The next few weeks will witness the
close Of one of the greatest contests that
this world has ever seen-a contest OF
brain against brain, vote against vote
theory against theory, policy against
policy. 1t will be contest based upon
measures rather than upon men. But
there can be no contest as to the popu-
larity Of the st. Paul & Duluth railroad.
That is fixed and Interchangeable, for the
Duluth Short Line has always been the
favorite route between st. Paul, Mime
apolis, Duluth, West Superior, Saltwater
and other important northwestern
points. It's facilities are SO complete, its
equipment SO perfect, Its trains so fast
its schedules so convenient, that it nat
urally appeals to the tourist or the bust
ness man and always keeps its patrons.
To go on the Duluth Short Line, there
fore, is to go with the crowd Maps, cir
culars and general information may be
obtained of ticket agents, or by writing
to w. A. Russell, General Passenger
Agent, st. Paul, MINI.

to the central police station, and yester

had been struck over the head while
walking up Third street, and that after
receiving the blow he had been robbed
Of watch and some money. In a condi-

Our r. winty Letter.

The John Lind letter Of acceptance,
published last week, will in all probability
remove amy doubts which might have ex-
listed as to the gubernatorial result. 1t
was a masterful presentation OF the Is
sues, and so reasonable aud fair that
even the St. Paul Globe, rabid gold
standard organ, admits, editorially, that
lit was an effort of extraordinary abil-
ity and easily the best effort up to date
of the campaign" If the farmers and
shippers of Minnesota do not elect John
Lind governor over Jim Hills man,
Clough, then they deserve the fate they
have received ina.the past, Of unjust and
extortionate freight rates, tax discrimina-
ton, pine land, school fund robberies,
have been afflicted upon the people Of
gang which ever scuttled a ship of state.
The desperate measures by which the
agents Of Hanna and his committee Of
forgive millionaires are seeking to
fasten the single gold standard upon us is
illustrated by scheme overheard the
other day in Duluth A prominent bust
ness man Il will withhold his name for
the sake Of his family said to another
goldite: "Say, we have a scheme which
is good one; when the next Republican
SPELL binder comes here we will buy UP a
lot of Bryan and Towne buttons and dis
tribute them among our trusted men.
They will drop them on the floor during
the meetings and when the janitor
sweeps out he will find a hundred Of
these buttons discarded by men who were
converted right then and there. See?
Pretty hot stuff. for the Associated Press.
It will show that Towne is losing ground
and exert quite an influence throughout
the district for honest money.
Bourke Cochran, for years the head Of
the most corrupt political organization in
the world, after launching himself and
other Tammany leaders by fleeing the
taxpayers of Kings county and New York
city out of millions Of dollars, is now a
bright and shining advocate Of honest (?)
money Bourke, you cannot now, in the
sere and yellow leaf of life, wash your
sins away by supporting the gold stand
ard ticket. Your political methods in the
past have been a constant menace to
good government, and you have done as
much as any one man to destroy conf
dence and breed anarchy.

tee, where it met on Friday evening.
The three elected officers of the organ

the executive committee, and the secre-
tary was instructed to request the pas
tors OF the various parishes participant
ing in the fair to call meetings and urge
the members of their congregation to do
active, energetic work for the success of
the enterprise. Addresses Of an encour-
aging character were made by Capt.
Whelan, Capt. John Kennedy, John Nor
ton, w. M. Regain and M. O'Reilly, who
suggested practical methods for the
furtherence of the cause. Much en-
thusiasm was manifested, and it Is safe
to predict that the coming fair Will be
great financial and social success in
every way. One of the most pleasing
features OF the meeting Of last Monday
evening was the large number of ladies
present, and the interest they manifested
in the approaching event. The orphans
are to be congratulated upon having
such an army of willing workers to
labor in their behalf.

JOHN DAILY

Says He Is Not a Dynamite but q
Fighter.
A Dublin dispatch of Sept. 13 says:
John Daily, who was recently released
from Portland prison after serving sew
eral years On conviction of completely
in a dynamite plot, together with his
brother, arrived at Queenstown, near
here, on Saturday evening. He was met
by John Redmond, Patrick O'Brien, Tim
othy Harrington and others.
In replying to an address, Daily de-
clared he was not a dynamiter, and that
he never believed in dynamite to terror
ize the English government. The dream
of his life, he said, was to fight for Ire
land like soldier and patriot. There
was demonstration here in honor of
Daily by the Amnesty association.

A Miraculous Moving,

The Saturday Review says: On May
10, 1921, the house of Nazareth, in which
Jesus and the Virgin Mary had lived, was
miraculously severed from it's founda-
lions, borne through the ar and depos-
tied on the hill Of Tersatto, in 1llyria.
Here it remained for three years. but on
Dec. 10, 1924, it was again miraculously
removed by theVirgin herself and the holy
angels-this time into ltaly-and set in
the midst of wood belonging to GER
tain Lady Lauretta, in the neighborhood
OF the Recanati. Owing, however, to the
constant violence Of robbers, who at
tackled the pilgrims fiocking to the sacred
spot, on a morning in August, 1895, the
house was again removed through the air
mile further inland, till 1t rested on a
cultivated hill, the joint property of two
brothers. the Counts Stephen and Simon
R.naldi de Antici.
g. For a time ali went we'll, but these
brothers overcome. by a desire of gain
aroused in them by the rich offerings OF
the pilgrims, began at length a violent
quarrel as to which one of them was the
owner Of the ground, and the sacred
building, being in danger of defilement
through fratricidal bloodshed, was a
fourth time systematically borne of, and
finally planted IN the middle Of public
read belonging to the commune Of Re-
canati, crushing down In its descent, as
was discovered in 1851, certain prickly
bush by the roadside, and covering over
some acorn shells, a snail shell, and a
dried nut. Almost Immediately the au-
thorities fastened to surround the holy
house with a brick wall for purposes OF
support, inasmuch as 1t had no founda-
ticns, but the sacred walls would never
adhere to the new ones, and broke as
under so far thata little child could pass
between; with a light in his hand, to show
the people, when necessary, the truth Of
