The football season opened in En-

was battle royal, and the game ended

Monday afternoon for Miss Anna Rose.
at the home of the Misses Ranney On

There were only three guests invited
who were not members Of the club, they
were Mrs. c. K. Holiday, Mrs. w. H.

Music was furnished by Mrs. Palmer,
Miss Ranney, Miss O'Brien and MISS

to the young ladies that Miss Rose had
too bad a cold to sing and she seldom
plays anything but accomplishments,
however she added to the entertain
ment by telling a, great many interest
ing things about her country and her
home life and she said that she thor
oughly enjoyed an informal afternoon
with the girls. Several pictures of the
party were taken.

Fair Play and Politics.

Secretary Berg had to stretch the election
law 10 give the fusion party second place on
the official ballot but the supreme court has
sustained him in adopting a practical rather
than a technical construction of the law. The
literal reading of the statute would require
the two parties to present petitions in order
to get the names OF their candidates on the
o2ilot, and that those candidates be given
last place, following the Prohibitonists and
Socialists. But fair play required that they
be put under no handicap of any sort in seek
ing election. Secretary Berg willingly gave
them all that absolute justice makes theirs
even though not allowed by a strict construc-
ton of the law. AS a rule the Democrats
are strict construction1Sts, but they will not
object in this case to getting the benefit OF a
liberal Interpretation. The Demo-Pops will be
forced to admit, after the election that they
lost, not through unfair treatment, but for
the old reason, lack of votes.-St. Paul Dis
patch.
Then, if fair play is desirable and to
be commended after the state supreme
court has decided that fair play is also
good law, what is the matter with fair
play in county politics? The condi-
tions in the state and county are alb
solutely the same so far as fair play
is concerned. Any individual Repub-
lican will admit that the Democrats Of
this county include, say, 40 per cent Of
the vote, taking a Republican estimate
LueH - II Ld4I play " 1OrCe the beIn-
ocrats to go on the county ballot by
petition? And if it is not fair play,
why do you commend the secretary Of
state for taking that position in re-
gard to the state ballot? Isn't 1t a
fact that you would call anything fair
| play that helped the Republican party
or a Republican official when there was
an election in sight? Didn't you ac-
cuse Horace Bigelow of being a blith-
ering idiot when he was in the council,
and now do you not commend him to
the suffrages Of the people as a men,
tally well equipped person and one fit
for the office OF county attorney? What
do you know Of fair play when the

New Role for Corn Stalks.

The Marsden company, Of Philadel-
phia, sent an expert to st. Petersburg
to superintend an experiment to be
made in cofferdam packing by the
Russian admiralty. The result Of the
experiment is of no little Importance to
American agriculture since it will
doubtless open up an immense market
in Russia for Indian corn pith
cofferdam six feet long, six feet
deep and three feet broad was packed
with cellulose made of this pith, and
then subjected to heavy water pres
sure. Notwithstanding the fact that a
six-inch solid shot had been fired
through the dam, after few hours
test no water had escaped through the
path Of the shot.
w. R. Holloway, the consul general
at st. Petersburg, thinks that the ex-
pertinent has proved conclusively "that
a ship provided with a cofferdam pack
ed with this material could be per-
forated FIVE feet below the water line
without the least danger Of the en-

1t was amply demonstrated that Candidate

transplres that he doesn't like Swedes. 1t is
unnecessary to repeat what he calls them,

other cereals which followed gave an

of being productive of most gratifying

Foraker on Cuba.

Senator Foraker of Ohio, who was
so persistent an advocate of the rec
ognition of the independence of
Cuba, is evidently not in accord with
the administration in it's policy adopted
for dealing with that country Sena-
tor Foraker had much to do with the
framing of the resolution finally passed
by congress which brought the
whole subject of war with Spain to an
issue. In recently published inter-
view he openly condemns the PROPOSE
tiOn to send an army into Cuba after
the Spaniards shall have vacated the
island. He believes that the mission Of
the United States will have been per-
formed, so far as the resolution en-
powered them to act, when the Spanish
authority is completely withdrawn
from Cuba and the island left in the
charge of those who have been in in
surrection against the Spanish crown.
Speaking Of this suggestion. which is
believed to amount, practically, to the
expression of a purpose on the part of
the government to send to Cuba and
maintain there an army of say so, 900
men, Senator Foraker says:
There will be no authority for such oc.
cupation, to begin with, and in the second
place, the American people do not want an
army in Cuba to watch over the Cubans,
who alone will be left in the island, after
the Spapiards have evacuated, and who will
be as free and independent as we are
My idea about Cuba is that we should
follow the programme of congress as clearly
marked out; that is, drive out the Spaniards,
give the government that the natives are to
choose steadying hand and a Godspeed
Drlng cur troops home, continue friendly re-
lations, recognizing their independence and
treating them. fairly and justly, and then
await events
Senator Foraker's head seems to be
proportionately level on this point at
any rate.
