MAKES A SECOND CALL.
Labor Is Urged to Share in the
Parades.

Louis Nash, chief marshal of the
Labor day committee, has issued a
second circular to the Commercial and
industrial forces of st. Paul. in which
he says:
At the time we decided to make the
Labor day celebration an industrial af-
fair of general Importance, we were not
aware that our sister city anticipated
a similar demonstration as one Of
their evening programmes for the en-
tertainment of their visitors. The ad-
visibility of st. Paul making this a
prominent feature of the weeks en-
tertainment is now more pressing than
before, if we intend to hold our own
in the race for recognition as COM
mercial and industrial center
We cannot afford to leave any stone
unturned that will in any way add to
the success of the occasion. If any
firm or concern failed to receive a for
nal circular we trust they will ac-
cept this invitation to prepare a float
and join their forces with ours in an
effort to make this event an industrial
landmark in the history of the state.
In conclusion, we would say don't
wait for your neighbor, but set him
the example by getting your float un-
der way at once. Any suggestion that
we can offer in the matter of designs
for same we, shall be glad to make.
This is the appointed time Sept. 6
and Z the days of salvation for St.
Paul's progressive industries. The
floats can be used in the Labor day
parade on Monday, and in the civic
and industrial parade on Tuesday
night.

the through fare. In addition, the
council is to reward this grab of ev-
erything in sight by re1inquishing for
four years to come the only power it
has over the company that of order
ing the construction and operation Of
new lines.
Summing up the new ordinance, then,
we have the abandonment of the depot
loop as outrage number one; the ad-
mission Of an unknown and probably
unsatisfactory device on the Selby ave-
nue. hill, to enable the company to get
rid of its cable system, as outrage
number two; the destruction Of
Wabasha street and University avenue
as public thoroughfares by changing
them into a right of way for fast rail-
way traffic, occupied practically by
four tracks instead of two west of
Dale street, as outrage number three;
the surrender of control by ordering
new lines, as outrage number four;
and, as outrage number five, to cap
the monumental atrocity of these con-
ditions, is the privilege to the COM
pany of increasing it's charges for
service.
We hold the conditions of this ordi-
nance to be such that the people
should take instant and summary ac-
tion to prevent any possibility of their
ratification. At last the plans of the
company are thoroughly outlined, and
its control of the city council has been
revealed. 1t is not yet certain whether
that control Is absolute in both houses,
but we cannot afford to take any
chances. The people should meet and
organize to resist this scheme for a
surrender of their rights; and, unless
we are prepared to acknowledge the
street railway company as absolute
master and owner of our streets and
our affairs, whatever is necessary to be
done must be done to prevent the
treason to the people now contemplat-
ed and even avowed by the council
committee.

FAIR WEEK WILL BE GREAT.
Visitors Will Find PLENTY of En-
tertainment Here.

The executive committee having in
charge the celebrations for the enter
tainment of the visitors to the city
during the state fair week met yester-
dav at the Commercial club rooms and
outlined programme which is Ger
tainly the most unique and elaborate
ever undertaken before in the North
west.
TT was decided to omit the proposed
features for Monday evening, and to
combine them with the attractions the
succeeding four evenings; the princi-
nal reason for this was that Monday
is Labor day, and the Labor day COM
mittee has planned a very interesting
event for that occasion, consisting of
an industrial parade during the day.
Tuesday evening there will be the
Venetian water festival at Como, with
a brilliant fireworks display. Down
town there will be civic parade in
which all the Labor day floats will be
used.
The committee determined to have
two nights of fire" instead of only
one. as originally mentioned, and these
will be on Wednesday and Thursday
evenings. The assault will take place
on a fortress on Willow island, just
below the Robert street bridge, and
the attack will be by land and water.
Heavily armored'' cruisers will cruise
up and down the river past the fort,
while the land forces will pour in a
CALLING fire. consisting of sky rockets
and other deadly missiles, to cover the
f1eet-and the forces in the beleaguered
fort will make a gallant defense. The
land troops will form in line in Cen
trail, Rice and Smith parks and march
to the attack On Thursday night the
garrison will surrender to the valiant
invaders.
Friday evening there will be a fast
run by the entire fire department, and
also japanese and Midway festivities.
The streets will be illumined by many
colored electric lights and japanese
lanterns in countless hundreds, while
all sorts Of oIlacrobatic, musical and
unique entertainments will be in pro-
gress. at different places. This will
close the week of jollification
There will be music galore; every
band in the city will be engaged, a
feature that the visitors are sure to
appreciate. 1t is estimated that the
celebration will cost several thousand
dollars. and this amount will be Sc
cured without trouble by the finance
committee. ,c
The executive committee appointed
the following chairmen Of different
committees. and these are empowered
to select their co1workrs:

CAME FROM ASIA.
MinnesOta's Fame Attracts a Family
From That Land.

Jacob Kroeker, during the past few
years, has more trouble than he thinks
he is entitled to. He has been living
with his rather large family in Central
Asia, and the KirghiZ chiefs have made
it a point each year to swoop down upon
him and demand portion of his crop
Of wheat. When once he refused. they
destroyed the entire crop, and that was
bad for him. From that time on, he
allowed them to take what they wilIed.
because he was helpless to prevent it.
Yesterday, Jacob, accompanied by his
twelve children, two sons-in-law and
their families, came to town via the
500 and will locate somewhere in
Northern Minnesota. They are all
Mennonites, and the old head of the
party exhibited some curiosity as to
whether his crops in this country would
be subject to raids similar to those
made in his native country.
The party has been travelling con-
tlnuously since April u, having spent
forty days in staging to make Samark-
land. Across Russia they went to the
Black Sea, and thence took the steam
er to Liverpool, where they purchased
tickets for this side of the water.
