Had Hawaii been made a District
inste ad of Territory, as the Dole
conspirAtors hoped would be the
case, the President would OF course
have been in the right, when he ac-
cepted Dole's explanations and en-
dorsed his actions as governor. The
people OF the District would have
no voice in public slfairs, and we
would simply have been ruled from
Washington, truly delightful idea
A territory was, however, establish
ed, and since Mr.. Roosevelt will not
admit his error in appointing Dole
to Office, it is the duty OF the.peo-
pie OF the Territory to prove at
the next election here, TO the people
Of the United States that, by the
sanction OF President Roosevelt, a
government not OF or for, or by
the people is bsiug sustained in a
Territory OF the United States, and
that the old oligarchy, which /,
against the will OF the people
traito rously sold free country, still
continues in power and, at every oc-
casion, repudiates the golden rule OF
government by the people.

CIRCUIT COURT ADJoURNs.

After two weeks session circuit
court adjourned and will open the
session for the first district at Augusta
Monday The court disposed Of great
deal of business and some pretty
knotty questions, but the jury, judge
and bar had patience and everything
passed pleasantly.
One Of the most important cases be
fore the court was that of Uncle Dick
Cullinane who sued the Gulf and Ship
Island railroad company for SO, 600,
as was stated III the Progress yester-
day Every inch of the ground was
hotly contested and the usual amount
of prejudice was observed in the con-
duct of the case. But the jury re-
turned a verdict for the defendant,
and it was just verdict, and the jury
is commended by the entire city.
This will have the effect of throwing
damper on further allegations for
damages against railroads and corpor-
ations simply because they have plenty
Cf money and some people think they
should hull it out by the thousands

''Oh, my nice, new, fresh, pretty,

This plaintiff heart rending moan

found that much work was needed in
both of the twin cities. Some delay
had been experienced before he had
been assigned districts in which to
work. AS an instance Of conditions
found he reported that in two days
time he found seventy families and
two hundred children outside of church
connection. Many of the children
were attending various English Sun
day schools. Most of them promised
to join the Lutheran church if it was
established. The doctor placed the
number OF sSwedes in both cities at
100, 900, q great many OF whom belong
to no church organization. He has
visitt d about twenty places outside of
St. Paul, and organized several
Sunday schools. : a..
Rev. G. J. Petri of Minneapolis
stated that they had begun the Eng
fish work long ago. The best method
to solve the English question in the
speakers opinion was for each church
to take it up as the need for the same
was felt. This was preferable to or
ganizing new churches to be recruited
from the old churches. He cit d in.
stances in his own city. He wanted
the existing churches to take up the
question for themselves and in the
course of time the transition of Ian.
guage would take place. He cited as
an instance q German Lutheran

whether the conference would move
the college under any circumstances,
and ~ If SO, what the. conditions
should be for It's removal.
The first proposition met with favor
and Senator J. w. Peterson, of Good
hue county, offered q resolution that 1t
should require two.thirds majority to
move the school, and accepted an
amendment made by Rev. .Almen that
the rule should be made q general one

conference. After some tedious dis.
.cussion Of the propriety Of such action

shall be moved t. ON St. Peter to the
Twin Cities.''
Rev. G. O. Olander of Minneapolis
was first recognized and asked to COR
rect an impress on that had gained
ground to the effect that the ministers
of the Twin Cities had officially ad-
vocated the removal of the school.
Suchwas not the case, he said, as it had
not been discussed at their meetings.
He was, however, in favor of removal
and gave his reasons. When asked
what had become Of the academy
which had been established year ago
and did not succeed, he replied that
it was not question of a private
school but of one sanctioned by the
conference.
Rev Erick Hedeen opposed moving
on moral grounds.
DR.. Telleen spoke OF Manchester
College and it's endowments. He
thought the school should be located
in the cities because it could do the
most good by reason of such advan-
tageous location and more support
could be secured for the same there.
Rev. G. j. Petri was next recognized
and made a strong appeal for remov-
al. The school needs more modern
facilities. $4,000 at least would have
to be expended to make the buildings
at ST. Peter tolerable. God had
touched the hearts of the capitalists,
and should we not take advantage of
the opportunity? The Twin Cities are
the key to the Northwest. The speaker
referred to the strong growth of the
conference with it's 10000 commune
cants all throughout the state and ad-
joining territory and the necessity for
progressive action at this time. He
referred to the location of the branch
store OF the Lutheran Augustana Book
Concern at St. Paul as an instance
proving the advantage of a convenient
location. If the opportunity is not
seen and grasped while we have the
chance, others will take it from US.
The opportunity is an open door to
the conference, said the speaker, and
he hoped that it would proceed to ex-
tend it's influence.
Rev. Ericks on, of Worthington,
stated that there were evil influences
in the cities which make them more
dangerous to the young than smaller
cities. It would be very difficult for
the principal to keep track of students
in a large city and a strict discipline
could not be enforced.
Rev. Hultkrans rejoined that while
Enthusiastically much evil existed in
the cities, there was also more good.
That the good and bad was so dis

church at Reading, Pa, which one
hundred years ago used the German
language exclusively is still in pros
porous condition but now uses Eng
lish exclusively. He said that the
keeping of the young people in the
church was not necessarily question
of language. English churches have
to face the same trials of losing some
of the young people confirmed. He
thought that the number of Swedes in
the twin cities had been overestimated.
The latest census shows that 23,375
Swedes born in the old country re-
sided at Minneapolis and 1855 in st.
Paul. His opinion was that mission
airy work should not be done to inter-
fere with existing congregations.
Rev. L. A. Johnston of st. Paul
very pointedly stated that he wanted
the conference and Synod not to leave
the important matter of English mis-
sions to other Synods. In regard to
each congregation taking up the work,
he asked what can the overworked
ministers of the cities do? was not
the understanding that the work in the
cities should be undertaken except as
acceptable to the various church
boards and the executive committee.
Rev. J.. Magny, OF Volga, Wis,
was pleased with the discussion. De-
sired to see the work at FIRST confined
to the twin cities and that the labors
of the missionary be concentrated to
these localities until congregations
could be organized there. =
Rev. G. G.. Carlson. Of St. Paul was
! in favorsof establishing separate Eng.
disappearing congregations. He
| thought that the census of foreign
born Swedes did not necessarily need
to limit the estimates of the number
of Swedes in the cities. Many fami.
lies have but one or two foreign born
members and others none. He has
had no less than ], 200 children at one
time in his church. .s. !:

were promptly on hand, as the great
question of moving or not moving
Gustavus Adolphus Collage from St.
Peter to the Twin Cities was the spec
ial order of business set for nine

minutes of the first days session by

tive Committee made it's recommends

DR.. J. S. Carlson made the sugges-
ton that, in order that the matter
would be satisfactorily settled, the
conference, before taking up the
school question, decide how large q
majority would be necessary to move
the school, also that the question
be divided into two parts, viz: /.
