order, presided as m James +.
Mccullough responded TO the toast object
OF Our Order" He insisted that II was the
duty Of every honest saloon keeper to exert
himself to his utmost to elevate his bust
ness TO a standard that everybody would
respect. 1t had been proven conclusively,
ne said, that there was a demand for the
beverages which the saloonist had 10 sell
and Ii only remained for them to exercise
discretion in dispensing their wares TO their
patrons.
J. Newton Harding. who responded TO the
toast Organization" declared that his sub
ject was only another name for progress.
He said he believed that the organization
of the saloon keepers would be the means
OF a very material advancement. Where
all come In touch with one another he
said, 1.-The suggestions of the best Will be
absorbed to the exclusion of all that should
not obtain"

REGRET PRICE REGULATION.
Indiana Did Not Figure on
the Drought.

The member of the Indiana Packers
Association held a conference at the En-
glish Hotel yesterday afternoon for the
purpose of discussing crop conditions and
comparing notes as to the output. IL Is
said the Gamers are regretting that they
fixed the price several weeks ago for this
years pack. At that time tomatoes were
sold for ny cents a dozen quart cans. but
since the drought has damaged the crop
prices nave advanced very rapidly. The
jobbers, however, and not the packers are
getting the advantage of the rise.

north, range 10 west, fronting the harbor
of Duluth. The scarcity of dock facilities
and the rapid Increase in the volume of
business at the head of the great lakes
makes these lots worth, at a conserva-
tive estimate, not less than $4,000.
The proceedings which have thus re-
suited so favorably for the state were
commenced and conducted by Hon.
George B. Edgerton, former assistant
attorney general, acting upon the in
struction of State Auditor R. D. Dunn.
These three lots are the only lands &C
quired by the state in school section 36
township 40, range Is, the other lands
In the section having been settled upon
by squatters prior to the government
survey and disposed of by the United
States to them. They contain $3.50 acres,
and belong to the permanent school fund.
In 1881, a corporation known as the Du-
luth Boom company succeeded in having
these lots condemned for its own use,
despite the protest Of the state. The
company never appears to have used the
lands and seems to have had poor sue
cess generally, for it went out of busi-
ness about ten years ago. The munif1-
cent sum of S130, or thereabouts award
ed to the state as damages in the con-
demnation proceedings, has never been
claimed or accepted by the state, and
rests in the hands of the clerk of court
at Duluth.
In January, 1884, the then state audi
tor, Mr. A. Biermann, offered these lots
for sale and they were disposed of at an
average price of about $3.50 per acre, Or
a total sale price of S15532. One of tS1e
purchasers, however, failed to make the
payments required by law at the sale,
and thus Lot No. remained unsold,
The two remaining purchasers who held
state land certificates covering lot 1 and
OF q
ments and remained undisturbed
until 1895, when some persons I'M
earthed the old condemnation pro-
ceedings and tried to secure a tax
title to the land. In this they failed,
but they succeeded in alarming the pur-
chasers holding under the state, who de-
manded that the money they had paid
be refunded them. They were advised to
hold on to their certificates and the state
would carry out its part of the contract
and clear up the title for them, but this
advice was rejected and they surrendered
their certificates and were refunded the
money actually paid into the state treas
ury. The legislature subsequently reim-
bursed them for their improvements
State Auditor Dunn then placed the
matter in the hands of Hon. George B.
Edgerton, with instructions to take the
necessary proceedings to clear the title
Under quo warranto proceedings the Du-
Iuth Boom company dissolved and
Its corporate existence terminated. A
suit was then Instituted in the district
court of St. Louis county to quiet title
to the lands in question in the state and
this was carried to a successful issue
Judge Cant issuing a decree determining
the title to the three lots to be in the
state Of Minnesota, on Feb 2, 1901
1t IS probable that this valuable harbor
frontage VIII be held by the state for a
year or two, and when it is ultimately
sold 1t will no doubt command several
hundred dollars per acre

A meeting cannot be held now, because
few of the adjutant generals of the
country would be able to be present as

MUST WAIT FOR A YEAR
NATIONAL GUARD WILL NOT GET
DESIRED APPROPRIATION.

1t is now practically a foregone con-
clusion that the national guard will not
get an additional appropriation of
&,0O00OO from congress this year. 1t will
be remembered that when the last APP
preparation of $1OOO,0OO was secured, ST.
100000 was wanted. The national guard
still hopes to get another million dol
lars, at least, but former Adjt. Gen.
Lambert says that it Is now out of the
question to secure it in less than a
years time.

citation was to have held a meeting in
