MORRIS MEN CONFIDENT.
The Republican Congressional Committee
Met In St. Cloud on q
Tuesday. ...'

The Republican congressional COM
mittee for the Sixth district met in
st. Cloud Tuesday to consult with
the candidate, Judge Morris, and
consider plans for the campaign.
Every county was represented, and
reports were uniformly encouraging.
The vote throug hout the northern
and eastern parts OF the district will
be largely increased over two years
ago, and the Republicans are con-
fident OF securing large proportion
of the increase. "
The campaign this year will be
pushed theoretically, and more
complete organization perfected
than heretofore.
1t was the general expression that
outside OF Stearns county Towne
had been able to secure more votes
than would 60 to the Democratic
nominee this year.
Judge Morris went over the situa-
ton carefully with the committee,
and expressed satisfaction with the
condition. He made several valu-
able suggestions about securing
efficient organization. He said that
Congressman Dolliver, of Iowa, had
agreed to speak at least three times
in the district, and Congressman
Littlefield, OF Maine, is also to
make one trip through Northern
Minnesota. Both are speakers Of
great ability, and were leaders on
the Republican side in congress.
The Maine gentleman is COM
paratively a new man, but is in
the very front rank of public ora
tors.

!. NStO|TA NEW SCARE.

This presidential campaign IS
not the first in which the Demo
cratic party has used the 'em-
pre- and emperor" scare to
deceive voters. ,' Now, as in
\ 1864, the country has a Repub-
llcan president who is trying to
enforce the authority of the ma
/ ton in territory owned by the
nation. In 1864 the Democratic
national convention declared
the war a failure, and de.
nounced Lincoln as an emperor.
The following extracts from
copies of the indianapolis

leading Democr1!ic paper of
& Indiana used the scare issue to
I oppose Lincoln's reelection:

them can boast a very high de-

neighboring towns regarding the
smallpox scare in Marshall. unwar-
ranted by facts, detrimental to Mar
shall and difficult to overcome. At
all surrounding towns people in
tending to come to Marshall have
been told that the town is quaran-

Marshall has an epidemic Of small
pox, in some instances as high as
$50 cases, and that 20 or more
deaths have occurred.
The truth is that two weeks AGO
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1900-11-28

Marshall had a case of smallpox, the
patient dying more from want of
early attention than from the dis
ease. There we're several expos
ures and a hospital was immedi-
ately established in the outskirts of
the town, the place connected by
telephone and professional nurse
from St. Barnabas hospital secured.
The city council and the board of
health adopted stringent quaran-
tine and precautionary measures.
The schools were closed and the
churches have not held service the
past two weeks for this reason. The
first alarm has greatly abated. At
70 time has the alarm been so great
in Marshall as outside of town.
There are now five very mild
cases in the hospital under the
nurses care. None are very sick
and but one is confined to bed. Two
are conyalescent. The cases are
under the personal charge of the
health officer, who is using the ut
most precaution.
DR.. Bracken of the State Board of
Health was here and was free to
say that in his several years exper-
fence he had not seen in a small
town such prompt and energetic
measures and conditions so favor
able for the quick stamping out of
the disease. He advised that the
schools soon be reopened, after dis
infection, as danger of contagion
was evidently past.
The school board is meeting to
consider the ACCESSIBILITY OF opening
the schools next Monday, and the
churches will open on Sunday.

QUO WARRANTO.

An interesting subject is more
interesting when viewed in con-
nection with human living than as
theoretical treatise.
This is one reason why the "novel
with purpose is much in vogue
and for many Of US the purpose does
not lessen its interest.
''Quo Warranto;' is a work of this
class, While it will be enjoyed as
story, its chief interest and value
is the information and discussion
it furnishes concerning timely
topics.
The story begins on an emigrant
ship to New Zealand. A spiritualist
mesmerizes his daughter. who sees
events quickly to follow-mutiny,
fire and storm at sea. The stirring
events and peculiar experiences re-
suit naturally in aroused and con-
tinueG interest Of the characters Of
the story in the phenomena and
powers Of mind and their explana-
ton.
Experiences of Whitfield and
Wesley s day, miracles, Greek and
Roman, Shaker and Mormon, Divine
healing and Christian science,
Christian and heather churches are
discussed.
A story Of pure love courtship
carried on by telepathy framed
without a dull page in the beautiful
setting Of wonderful New Zealand
life with which the author is famil-
lar. Contains much information Of

the weird manners and customs Of
the Maories.
Beside making accurate quota
tons from the authoritative works OF
the religious bodies referred to, cor
respondence has been had;with and
valuable information obtained
through the dignitaries of the Rom
an Catholic church, Mrs. Eddy,
author of Science and. Health, -
and authorities on theosophy, Nor
monism and Shakerism.
That the author has been sue
cessful in his aim to represent, not
misrepresent these different claim
ants OF marvellous powers, is shown
by the following extract from a let
ter from a leader of the Shaker CON-
munity, to whom the chapter about
his people was submitted for his
correction and changes made in
conformity with his wish.
"The chapter is entertaining and
free from the inconsistent absurdi-
ties of many who write upon the
Shaker people, after passing through
their community homes. And the
following from the authority on
Mormonism: you certainly have a
clean, clear grip on the Mormon
doctrines.
The book will be of interest to
any who1have an intelligent knowl-
edge or belief in any Of the phases
of religious teaching regarding
modern miracles, on account of the
comparisons made and conclusions
reached as result OF much thor
