WHOSE SCHEME IS lTf

Having found other retreats unten-
able. The subsidi7esi mouthpiece o,
the Republican officeholders now
questions the power and ability OF
congress to provide an endowment
for the schools Of the Indian territory
The contention, though based on
assertion and assumption, rather than
facts and conditions, has somewhat
seductive sound and needs treat
ment
The idea set out is that all the
lands in Indian territory are allotted
and would not be subject to reserva-
ton TO- school purposes This is not
true, as the mineral lands are not so
allotted but are, by the treaties. sub
ject 10 sale. There could be no rea-
son why congress could not arrange
for their purchase and donation TO the
public schools But all this Is based
upon the assumption that congress
either coulo not. or would not make
any other provision for a school fund
than by buying lands and donating
the lands to the school endowment
Now, what possible differences can
It make to congress whether il pays
ont money for land, OF some other
desirable investment Indeed, what
Is the difference whether Il invests
the money or makes direct endow-

NAVAL STATION
A Board Looking Over Sites on

A. Board Looking Over Sites on the
Great Lakes.
From: TIE Journal Esereau. Room 10. Post
Building, Foshington. ).
Washington, Aug. 2.-Rear Admiral
Taylor, chief of the bureau of navigation
and Civil Engineer Rosseau left Washing
ton to-day to examine sites for the pro-
posed naval training station on the Great
Lakes provided for in the last naval ap-
preparation bill. They will 60 to Chiea-
go and up the west shore of Lake Mich
igan, inspecting the sites offered. Thence
they proceed to Superior and Duluth,
where they will be next Wednesday. They
Will thenago to Sault Ste. Marie or AacLi-
nac :and down the east shore of Lake
Michigan, Stopping at Charlevoix, Onkama,
Muskegon, Grand Haven and Holland. ~
At the conclusion of the Inspections at
these places the board will go to. Detroit
and look over all the bays and harbors on
Lake Erie as far as Buffalo. The board
has prepared a short statement of what
is desirable in the way of land. The tract
should not be less than.100 acres nor more
than 500 acres in extent. The most de-
sirab Bile site would be upon an island near
the main land, or upon a peninsula or
point which could be easily isolated when
| necessary. There should be deep water
in the near vicinity and the climatic con-
ditions should be favorable. The board
will simply submit a report to the secre-
taryi Of the navy, who will transmit it to
congress at its next session. No legtsla-
tion has been enacted for anything fur
ther than report upon available sites

trary, the iron ore merger is much better
iptrenched. The United States Steel COM
pany does not own any Of the stock Of the
competing iron roads. The stock is owned
by two different New Jersey corporations.
The stock of these corporations is owned
by the steel trust. The trust as corpora
tion does not do dollars worth OF busf-
ness in Minnesota. This case has been
very carefully investigated, and the end
is not yet, but it would manifestly be Of

GRAIN A COMPLETE RUIN
NIGHT STORM: OF WIND AND. HAIL
Crops Not Harvested in Section
, Near Redwood Falls Are
Destroyed.

Special to The journal.
Redwood Falls, Mimi, Aug. "A small
tornado passed over this section about II
o'clock last night. In this city trees were
blown down and some streets were i'm
passable as a result. The city bell tower
was blown over. King Brothers ware
house was unroofed. High buildings were
stripped of tin and towers and residences
were more or less damaged by falling
trees. =
Reports from the country indicate that
the storm covered a territory of at least
fifteen miles wide and in this part every
piece of grain and every corn field is
down completely Not over 20 per cent
of the cutting was done, and all that was
not cut is complete ruin. Conservative
farmers say that the corn crop has been
damaged 80 per cent. While reports Of
damage to farm buildings are coming in,
there is no loss Of lives reported.
A single bolt of lightning about 4:30
o'clock yesterday afternoon killed three
horses attached to binder operated by
James Whittet, mile west of town.
Young Whittet was badly stunned. A
fourth horse was uninjured, although
the shock knocked down two horses driven
by the elder Whittet only a short distance
away.

i CHEAP SPECIAL ELECTIONS, =,
Plans Proposed for 12r: Making The
Maxor,s ResiEnatton Effective.

While Mayor ~Ames' resignation cannot
be accepted without a special election,
according to the city attorney, 1t now ap-
pears that such election can be held with
out entailing upon the city such a heavy
expense item as 100000, which would be
the estimated cost of the election. The
city council at it's meeting next Friday
night can arrang to have the mayors res
ignation accepted to take effect Aug: 27.
Then, under the city charter, there must
be a special election to fllthe vacancy ex-
actly twenty days afterward, which will he
primary election day. The special cleo
tion could thus be held with only an ad-
ditional cost of 20 cents an hour for count
ing ballots, and the cost of small special
election ballots. The same individuals
can be designated for special election
clerks who will act in that capacity at
the primary election.
Should there be any valid objection to
such a plan, the council can accept the
mayors resignation to take effect Oct. Is.
General election day is twenty days after
that date, and the same plan can then be
adopted as proposed for primary election
day.
It is probable that one of these plans.
which WILL be presented to the council
next Friday evening, will be accepted.
