The convention was called to order
at promptly ten o'clock by Chairman
Andrews, of the Republican county

and hats were in use,

Snow for chairman, with a few COM

was made unanimous. -~.. S.. $50

to the front, Mr.. Snow thanked the
convention for the honor, and said
that the delegates were here for bust.

it at once. ....
On motion Of DR.. Andrews, J. A.
Howieson was elected secretary.

could drink, and this was greeted
with applause. .... ..'.....

tween the people and the politicians.
Hennepin county had been the battle
ground royal and telegram just re-
ceived containedthe information that
Eustis had carried that county by
three to one. Great applause. The
convention today is freer from
dictation than any convention that
has ever met in Mankato. All come
together with but one thing in view,
the best interests of the party He
hoped that the convention would
send greetings to the Hennepin
county convention now in session.
DR.. Andrews moved that greetings
be sent, as suggested.

A correspondent Of the Cork Examin-
CT claims Ireland as the birthplace of
Admiral Sampson and says that he first
saw the light almost under the shadow
of the Moore abbey, now In ruins, just
outside of the village of Galbally,
County Limerick, ana close to the con-
fines OF the glen of AbcrlOw." Ad-
mlral Sampson's father, according to
the correspondent, was blacksmith,
who emigrated to America when the fu-
tUre admiral was but mere child. The
first of the Simpsons who came to Ire
land was colonel In Cromwclrs ar
my, If the Cork genealogist be correct.
This gives good fighting stock and
genealogy to the admiral, who Is now,
wherever he may have been born, as
good an American as any Spaniard
could wish.

Few OF us are 80 sordid ana practical
as not to wish for beauty about US, IN
our homes. In our friends, meeting our
eyes on all sides. How Is 1t then that
we stand with so much equanlnity the
hldeOus array OF staring business signs
ana glaring trademarks, with which
our landscape, country as we'll rs city,
Is dishgured? Are we acquiescent sim
ply from long habit, or Is 1t that we
fear that beauty and taste In advertis-
Ing would not pay? The last supposi-
tion has been proven false. Not long
since a party OF Belgian artists, recOg.
mixing that only through the low mo.
tive of gain can some people be reached
offered to furnish artistic designs to re-
place the SNOWY daubs of the Belgian
tradesmen. They had a skeptlcal audi
ence, but the experiment abundnntly
proved that taste and beauty In adver-
tising are enough more profitable than
lOudness and ugliness to challenge the
consideration of the most unaesthetic.
What blessing II this country could
open its eyes to the truth that ugllness
and sOrddness and practically don't
pay anywhere and that barbaric taste
Is antagonlstic to dollars. Let our pub
lie buildings be constructed ana orna-
mented on lines Of beauty, ana surplus
capital devote itself to making stores
and factories and depots attractive
places and the light of better day
will soon dawn. Why not?
