Terrible Strain Of tho Long Trip and
Open Air Meetings Telling on
Roosevelt's Constitution.

{ ROCK SIIAND, Ills, Oct. 5.--Gover-
nor Roosevelt, who spoke In this city
and Davenport. Iowa. tonight, thus
closing another day OF hard campaign
Ing. Is beginning to feel the effects OF the
arduous work undertaken by him at thp
request of the Republican campaign
managers.
Y Governor Roosevelt, since he began
his itinerary through the northwestern
states. has been speaking from ten to
twenty times each daYclosing the days
labors usually with a night meeting.
Many OF these meetings have been in
the open air. requiring extra exertion
on his part. He has how been on this
journey for more than thirty days and
though strong beyond the powers OF
most men to endure. he Is beginning to
show signs OF distress and failing
voice. He has been worked unmerciful-
ly by the state committees of the differ
ent states through which he has passed.
Needs Some Relief.
Beyond this he has had to endure un-
limited handshaking. Interviews with
out number and much pulling and haul
Ing by the eager but inconsiderate mob
which has swarmed around him in all
the cities OF any considerable size which
he has visited. If some relief Is not af-
forded. his physical powers. though
great. and his courage undaunted, he
may be unable TO last to the end OF. the
campaign. 1t has even now been sug-
gested that all his eastern engagements
be postponed for one week. This mat
ter will be determined by the national
committee on tho arrival OF Governor
Roosevelt in Chicago on Saturday night.
The trip through the state Of Iowa,
with Senator Dolliver, Governor Shaw
and General Curtis Guild. jr.. to-day,
has been very satisfactory one. large
meetings being held at all points where
stops were made.
Two immense meetings wera address,
ed by Governo: Roosevelt. this evening,
one at Davenport, and the other at Rock
Island. Ills Az
Train Behind Time.
The train arrived at Davenport at $
O'clock this evening, somewhat behind
time. The governor and his party were
driven TO tent In the western limits OF
the city,~where an immense meeting
was held and where he spoke FOR thirty
minutes. Immediately upon the con-
cluslon Of his remarks at that place he
was driven to Rock Island. where All
Immense street parade was moving
Great numbers OF people lined thr
streets on all sides and the governors
carriage was driven for several miles
through the shouting populaca. 1t was
half past o'clock before he reached the
stand to talk. He spoke for not moro
than twenty minutes.

PAVING SEVENTH STREET
MANY PROPERTY OWNERS ARE
OPPOSED TO TT,

The proposition to pave West Seventh
street, from Seven corners to Tuscarora
engaged the attention of the board of
public works for awhile yesterday after
noon, the opposition to the contemplated
Improvement showing up quite strong.
Judging from those who have entered
protests, over rs per cent of the property
holders have declared against It, Some
of them, however, are in favor Of the
paving as far as Ramsey, and new pre-
liminary order will likely be introduced
in the council to that effect The paving
material proposed is asphalt The board
decided to take the matter under consid-
Grafton, but the chances seem to be In
favor Of an adverse report.

alley in block 4, st. Paul proper, for paw
ing with Kettle River sandstone the

A communication by the assistant city
engineer relative to the cost of construct
ing a sewer on Congress street, from
Bldwell to Hall avenue, placed the esti-
mated expense at $S.127, the frontage be-
ing 1850 feet at a cost of $3.50 per foot.
The secretary was directed to give the
first assessment notice.
Assessment for paving, with brick, the
alley in block q, Woodward Park addi-
ton, was reported completed. The total
cost was estimated at 81 $3.50.
In a communication from John Marti,
second assistant health commissioner, he
reported that In q wet season after
rain there is about two feet of water in
the cellars of people living on Congress
street, and as a sanitary measure he IA
vored the construction Of g. sewer.
The opening of Jay street was taken
under consideration.
Charles Ahlstrom, gasoline contractor
of the city, was allowed S47.10 for repair

The grading, curbing and paving OF
Jackson street, with asphalt, from Third
street to Seventh, was ordered, to be ad-
vertised by the board.
The city enginere's attention was direct
ed to the fact that East Seventh street,
above Broadway, is In need Of repairs.

I am Of the opinion that action cannot
be taken too early for the constitution
Of such q commission, and I would sug-
gest that you would perhaps after CON
sulatton with the state auditor, select and
appoint such a commission at an early
date, that they may organize and enter
upon their important duty.
am positive that the results Of your
suggestion and the labors of this COM
mission will be valuable and permanent
improvement in the system Of county ac-
counting.
The most important part, as recog-
nized by every Intelligent county auditor
is the matter Of receipts and the proper
checks upon same.
So far as this department has gone in
the matter of the treasurer's disburse-
ments, the Transforming the warrant Of
the auditor into the check Of the treas
urer, and keeping Of q suitable register
to indicate that pert of his bookkeeping,
do not imagine that any change would
be made by a commission, and do not
understand that you recommend that any
backward steps should be taken In that
direction at this time.

ERICKSON PLEADS GUILTY
SOUTH ST. PAUL FORGER AR.
RAIGNED YESTERDAY.

Frank Erickson, who yesterday after-
noon obtained, by forgery. from the
South St. Paul postoffice a letter con-
tanning a check for $685., addressed to
r. Erickson. Of Brewster, Mimi, by
Fitch Co. in payment for cattle, was
arraigned before Commissioner Spencer
yesterday afternoon and pleaded guilty
to the charge Of fraudulently obtaining
mail.
In answer to Commissioner Spencer's
explanation Of the gravity of the charge
Erickson simply said: 81 am guilty.
Later he said he did not know why he
committed the crime, but the spirit
moved him and he thought he could get
away with it. He counted on getting
the check for the full amount of sale
over $500.
The report that a cowboy posse pur-
sued and captured Erickson yesterday
afternoon is not true. Patrolman Ingle-
man caught him after short chase and
he submitted to arrest very tamely. He
is a rather weak looking young fellow,
about tWenty-Seven years old, claims he
was born in Liverpool, and says Erick-
son is the name of his stepfather, his
mother having married second time.
Yesterday he said he did not claim to be
a stepson of R. Erickson, of Brewster,
but had known him about three years.
He says he worked on the new water
power at the 500 until Monday. He came
to South st. Paul Tuesday. He says he
has no friends in this country and asked
that he be given trial as soon as possible.
In this, however, under the existing law,
he cannot be accommodated, as he must
be indicted In, the district where the
crime was committed, and the Third
district grand jury has just been dis
charged and will not meet again till
January. Erickson must therefore spend
six months in jail before he is brought
to trial for g. crime the maximum pun
ishment of which is one year in prison.
In default of $1,000 bail he was COM
mitted to the Ramsey county Jail.
