| INTO the battlefield with the cross
resting on his breast. 4 man thus
armed rs more dangerous than n regi-
ment. Yes, at that day no surprise
was exhibited if priest or a bishop
armed and openly appeared at the
head of troops, or at the head of n
state combination, or was the chief
in command of a political plot-and
where can any objection rest if the
commander can select the Lords side
of the line? For instance, when Ma
poleon Imprisoned Spain's royal fam
lily at Bayonne and a government jun
tn was formed in Spain - the arch
bishop of Laodicea was president of
that junta-and in Mexico n priest.
Father Morelos. also raised n regi-
ment, chiefly native Aztecs, to give
Mexico her independence.
Mexico was valuable to Spain. as
Cuba has been, as taxpayers, and
she was not willing to surrender her
Mexican taxpayers without strug-
gle and a heavy flow of Spanish blood.
The crown of Spain had, previous
to the Guerrero and Iturbide junction
and revolution of 1921. quartered a
vast body of its adherents as officers
on the Mexican people, and up to that
date. by their own reckoning, receiv-
ed $21,000,O00 net revenue into the
treasury of the crown. OF this sum
$1.5OO,000 was a capitation tax paid
by Aztecs, vast sum for naked abort
ginals to pay n pampered monarchy.
In 1921 Don Jose edo appeared
in Washington. ID. G., and with the
knowledge of the American authori-
ties formed plans and enlisted 100
men and several officers for the pur-
pose of invading New Spain. This |
believe To be the first filibustering eX-
petition known from the United
States. Upon entering the province
many lovers of seIt-government flock
ed to the standard of Toledo. and the
garrison town of San Antonio de Bax-
ar. the then capital of the depart
ment of Texas. was taken. The fol-
lowing year Don Toledo was attacked
by superior numbers and defeated,
but saved his life by fight to the
United States.

Prevalence of kidney Trouble

So prevalent and deceptive is kidney
trouble that it very often becomes well
advanced before it is even suspected,
therefore, it behooyes all to be on the
lookout. Should you be i'll, or not feel
ing well, it would be wise to first pay
attention to the kidneys and ascertain il
they are the cause of your trouble.
A simple method of finding out if your
Kidneys are at fault has often been called
to the attention of our readers through
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root advertising in
the columns of this paper. and it is now
repeated for the benefit of those who
may be interested. Viz: Fill a bottle
with urine and set aside for twenty-four
hours or So and if it shows a brick-dust
sediment or cloudy appearance. or if the
urine is scanty or profuse, or If it is
found necessary to go often through the
day, or get up many times during the
night, you may be sure your kidneys
need attention.
After careful inquiry we find Dr. Kill
mer's SWamp-Root the great kidney
liver and bladder remedy, is remarka bly,
successful in the quick relief and cure of
the diseases for which it is recommended
There is hardly "a drug store in the land
that does not keep, and highly recon-
mend this celebrated preparation for kid
ney, liver and bladder troubles.
By special arrangement every reader
of the ''St. Paul Globe" may have a sam
pie bottle of DR.. sKilmer's Swamp Root by
mail, free, Gf they have not already had
oEe), by sending their address to Dr..
Kilmer & Co.. Binghamton, N. Y.

THE ANNALS OF MIN
NESOTA
PISTOL DUEL AT RICE HOUSE
Editor James NJ. GOOdhue and Judge
David Cooper Met I'm Mortal
Combat Fifty-One Years
Ago Today.

The following account of an incident
that occurred f1fty-one years ago today
IS furnished T h Q GLOBE by the Hon
William Pitt Murray, one Of the pioneer
residents Of the city:
t1tty-one years ago today James M.
Goodhue was the editor of the st. Paul
e nloneer. lie was man who had but few
a any, equals as an editorial writer in
E. D. Neil said:
When he died with the sword of his
pen ne nad carved name and reputa-
ton fer st. Paul, and he lived long
enough to hear men think aloud and saw
that the day would come when school
boys would learn from their geography
that the third city In commercial import
ance on the banks Of the mighty Missis-
sipp1 was st. Paul. His editOrialsi one
sentence would be like the dazzling, ar
roWy lightning, pealing in a moment the
mountain oak, and rising from the top
most branch to the deepest root; the
next like the stunning roar of torrent
or many waters" The contrarieties Of
MS character often increased his force.
imagining his foes to be Cossacks, he
often dashed among them all with the
recklessneSS of Murat. The fantastic
magnificence of his pen, when in those
moods, was as appalling in it's temerity
as the white ostrich feather and glitter
shall'' ----'''
For a better understanding of what is
earlier history of ST. Paul, there were
two st. Pauls-upper and lower town.
Wabasha street may be said to have been
the divicing line-uptown was run by
the Rices, Irvine, Becker, Harrington,
Culver and others; lower town, French
town, as they called it, by Sibley Robert,
Borup, Goodhue, Bazille Larpentuer
Forbes and others. There was a great
rivalry between the two villages-so
great that even dog dared not cross the
line for fear of getting skinned.
1t is said of a prominent old settler liv-
ing uptown, when young man asked
his consent to marriage with one of
his daughter, the first question he ask
ed was, DO you live below Wabasha
street," The young fellow must have
lied, as he married the girl with the con-
sent of the old man. Goodrich, the chief
justice, allied his fortunes with lower
town. Cooper, an associate Justice with
upper town. While the fight was at
