French, with their Lares and Penates,
to the Louisiana territory and there
have established new. larger, bet
ter, richer and more beautiful
France. If he had neither sold it to us
nor moved to it himself with all his
subjects, England would have gobbled
1t in short time, when it would have
been gone from us and our heirs for
ever and forever. With England to the
north and west Of us we would have
had tough job maintaining our indie
pendence. Even If we had remained
free and independent, we would have
been SO cribbed, cabined and confined
that we never could have become even
continental power, much less world
power. What q blessing it was that
Jefferson defeated John Adams in 1900,

feated him the purchase would not
have been then made, and today the
Mississippi river would be our western
border. The $5,O0O,O0O appropriated by
congress to celebrate this benefcent
event is not the fiftieth part Of the
taxes paid in one year in one way and

the celebration will serve is to start Q
Jeffersonian revival, a thing very much
needed just now, for his principles are
those Of wisdom, truth and Justice. No
other man that ever lived did so much
to make the idea of representative gov
eminent popular and to make it's prac-
tice success. The Hamiltonian school
of writer's and orators may sheer all
they choose at Jefferson and his the
cries. but after they all molder in for
gotten graves his principles will sur
vive to animate and bless mankind.

Yes, August Flower still has the

ilized world. Your mothers and grand
mothers never thought OF using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious

seldom heard Of Appendicitis, Nervous
Prostration or Heart failure, ETC. They
used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation OF undi-
gested food, regulate the action Of the
liver, stimulate the nervous and organ

No YACHTING At 'TONkA
MINNEAPOLIS SAILORS WILL STICK
TO THE DRY LAND
THIS YEAR
CLUB LIKELY TO DIsBAND
No New Boats Building, No Races
in Prospect, No Enthu-
siasm, No Moth
ing.

The yachting enthusiasts at Lake Min
netonka are disconsolate because of the
lack Of interest that is being shown in
that species of water sport this year.
There Is little, If any, prospect for a
successful boating season this spring
as no new boats are being built, and it
is very doubtful whether there will be
any races at all. Although there are
plenty of good boats on the lake, most
of them are, out of repair, and. there is
little talk of putting them in shape for
the season. The Minnetonka Yacht
club has not held it's regular spring
meeting, but many OF the members are
of the opinion that when it is held it
will be decided to make no attempt to
revive interest in the sport. One Of the
members, in speaking of the matter, said
yesterday:
Interest in yachting at Lake Mime
tonka has been on the decline during
the past two or three years Last year
the races did not create a great deal of
excitement, and many of the members
OF the club concluded at that time that
the organization would go to pieces this
spring. This unpleasant conclusion has
been fully realized. There are no new
boats building and no prospects for
races. This is especially unfortunate
because the club has a fine club house
which. if allowed to fall into disuse,
will be likely to depreciate in value I
attribute this lack of interest to the
fact that golf has made great inroads
into the ranks of the yachting devotees,
ana also to the fact that many of the
members of our club have purchased
naptha launches, which are more easily
handled than yachts, although they do
not afford the excitement sailing craft
furnish"
