SALOONS MAY KEEP OPEN.
But No Liquor May Be Sold or Civ:
en- Away in Voting Hours
Tuesday. .

BY a curious provision Of the primary
election law saloons may be kept open
on primary election day, but the barkeep-
er is strictly enjoined from selling or giv-
ing away any spirituous, malt or intoxi-
eating liquor in polling hours. The polls
open at a. m. and close at 9 p. m.
The, general election, law, which was
in force at the time the primary system
was introduced. expressly forbids in Sec
lions 16, IL and 18 the sale Of liquor on
election days, prohibits persons from in
Producing liquor under any guise, what
ever into the polling places, and imposes
on mayors and other magistrates the duty
of enforcing the laws and proclaiming
oXcially that the laws will be enforced.
Then comes the primary election law and
enacts the following: -. ....
Section 12-The provisions Of sections
16, II and Is of the general election law,
relating to liquor and saloons, except the
closing of saloons on election day, shall
apply, in like manner to the primary cleo
ton. day, under this act, during all the
times that the polls are required to be
open, and the said sections are hereby
adopted as a part of this act, and the
mayor shall make proclamation as to said
primary election day in accordance there
with" .sls.{tt = r - -. -:
The proclamation will be Forthcoming
in accordance therewith: The private adj
vice of the mayor and the police de-
partment Is that the saloons be kept tight
ly closed lest the temptation should prove
to be too strong for good resolutions and
the law. 800 -$S..- as

NUMBER 20

< Only few years ago the evening paper
did not and could not gather the news OF
the outside world. 1t was a paper devoted
entirely to local news and had scarcely
any circulation outside of Its own city.
One of the chief factors which have
brought the evening paper to Its present
commanding position has been the rapid
development Of the news service by tele-
graph and telephone. That great CO.
operative newsgatherIng organization, the
Associated Press, which once sent out a
scanty 5000 words In the daytime, now
sends T h J o u r n / over two leased
wires from 10000 to 10000 words every
day. The New York Sun special service
brinus from 1900 to $1,000 more, devoted
to unusual and interesting news not car
ried by the Associated Press. For sew
eral years The journal has MAIN
talned Its own bureau at Washington,
from which comes daily report Of from
5000 to 5000 words devoted to news OF
special Interest to the northwest, while
from Its special representatives at New
York, Chicago and other urban centers
come 1000 more over the wires. The
urnaI's Wonderfully complete
northwestern service brings In from $4,000
to $1,000 words daily from the cities and
towns of the northwest, covering all I'M
portant happenings of the day. Thus 1t Is
easy to see how r h e o urn covers
Its field more completely than any other
twin city daily. You can rest assured
that when you have read he J ur =
n al you are fully Informed as to the
news of the world, when that news Is
fresh.

IT COST TWO LIVES
The Use Of Kerosene in the Light
ing Of a Fire Results in
Two Deaths. ~
/ A North St. Paul Girl Of II and a
s. Baby Brother Are the
= Victims.

North st. Paul was the scene of a TRACE
dy early this morning, when Annie and
Louis Moritz, children Of Michael Moritz,
were killed in a fire which destroyed their
house on Oak Hill. - -. ..ae-a
The mother had left the house at en-
early hou: to go to market, leaving five
children and the father at home. At about
o'clock Annie Moritz, the 17year- old
daughter, went into the kitchen to build
fire. She used kerosene. A terrific ex-
plosion resulted, which scattered flames
all over the room and set the building on
fire. .. ..
Covered with flames, the girl rushed to
bedroom, where the father was sleep
ing. The man sprang from the bed and
attempted to smother the flames, and IN
doing so, was badly burned about the
hands and face, but he managed to rush
from the house.
The fire spread so rapidly that the fire
department was unable to render any as
sistance, and within a few moments the
house was a smoking ruin.
When the fire was subdued it was dis
covered that three of the children and tha
father had escaped with their lives, but
that Louis, the 2-year-old son, and An
ME, the daughter were dead: ~ - :
The father was badly burned and will
probably lose the use Of one Of his arms
but he will recover. 49,

that the rapidly growing country ought
to balance it's books oftener. So con-
gress has now ordered a census OF man
ufactures once in five years, and an agri-
cultural census-chiefly of cotton-every
year. TO realize the former, another
census Of manufactures will be forth
coming in 1905; to realize the latter. the
director has appointed about 600 agents
in the cotton states to make frequent
reports of the amount Of cotton gtnned.
Monthly bulletins Of statistics will here
after be published. Some congressman
believe this will prevent dealing in fu-

pate that it will have no such result. We

great beauty and1hist orical significance.
It is a work requiring far more thought
and study than attfirst appears. With q
given number of stars, to get design
that would commemorate: the greatest
number of events n,rthe history Of our
country and yet secure a symmetrical and
artistic effect, was the task Mr. Stahl-
neclzer set for himself, and, he happy re-
suit was reached only after much ef
fort.
The Beauty of this flag appeals to the
eye at once, and when it is known what
each feature represents it gathers new
glories to every, lover of the stars and
stripes. rs
The center group of thirteen stars rep
resents the thirteen original states at
the close Of the revolution or at the time
of the adoption of the constitution. The
outer circle Of tWenty-three stars rep
resents the states admitted between that
time and the Close of the civil war. The
great seal of the United States is repre-
scented by the center group of thirteen
and the encircling wreath Of twenty
three.
1t is intended that these three great
features shall never be changed. The first
event brought the flag into exist ence; the
second, the admission of twenty three
more states and the civil war; made the
