LAKE CRYSTAL.

Lake Crystal, March 10-Friday eve
ming your scribe with 279 others
boarded special train for st. James
to hear the oratorical contest, Lake
Crystal high school VS.. St. James high
school. 1t was an eager, happy crowd
all expecting a few plums to fall to
some Of our young friends, but we
were all doomed to Disappointment.
"Of all sad words of tongue or pen,
The saddest are these, it might have BEEN"
For our high school surely met their
Waterloo by an average which I think
is not the proper way to judge the
ability of six speakers, as one of the
six may be out of voice or be en-
barrassed in some way and lose sew
eral points. They should not apply to
the others but each speaker stand on
his own merits. I shall not say any
thing about the judging, but will ad-
wise the young ladies and gentlemen
not to feel discouraged by one defeat,
but to keep right on as each and every
one of you are credit to the Lake
Crystal school, doing honor to your
selves and to the teachers who have
so faithfully instructed you and long
before you have attained the age of
you opponents at st. James you will
be their piers in oratory. 1 would
suggest that in the near future you
write tho St. James students of the
high school (no others need apply 70
meet you in any other town in a
friendly contest and use them cour-
teously. Do not let any discourtesies
shown you mix in with your arrange
ments. Let there be feeling of social
friendship and thoughtful kindness.
Choose your judges from towns where
none of the contestants are known and
make these contests interesting fol
both old and young. The feeling al
our reception Friday evening wa
something like this:
The shades of night were falling fast.
| As to st. James train had passed
| banner, which bore this strange device,
| The Lake Crystal boys, they cuts no ice.

Because it was continuous move
for great many of us, everybody got
back in apparently good health, nc

grade today voted to exclude city hun
tiers from the fields in the township
another year, and to enforce this more
strictly than last year. Satisfactory
results were secured last year,
1t was voted to raise $500 for town
purposes and 81, 600 for roads and
bridges. A good deal of graveling
will be done, and several bridges re-
paired. A new road down the bluff
into North Mankato has been dropped
for the present, owing to the high
price at which some of the land is
held.

teen people who had been employed by

had started the pile work on the ex-
tension of the wharf. Everything will
be in readiness for the coming of the
salmon thirty days before the run
begins.
Mr.. Healy of Red Lake Falls, who
accompanied Mr.. Carroll, is delighted
with the outlook for the company.
Mr.. Carroll expected to reach Seattle
on his return on or about March list.
The company has made a contract
for Chinese labor to be employed in
putting up salmon, the contract price
being $15, 200, and has made a large
payment on this in advance. 1t has
also contracted for canning machinery

WANTS TO KNOW.


the public schools who had four chill
dren turned out of school in one day
because they had not been vaccinated
within three years (although they all
had within six years. 1 would like to
have the honorable board of health
crack few nuts.
First. What special reason is there
for placing the ban on the youngest
and purest blood in the city, the little
children, and not on the whiskey soak
ed, tobacco stepped, syphilis peppered,
itch dyed, scrofulous scabbed, dirt
despatched old sinners of both sexes
who are scattered all over the city2
Second. Why are the little children
shut out from the public schools, and
hundreds allowed to congregate indis-
, criminately from early morn till late
at night in the thirty or more saloons
of the city without being asked if they
bear the mark of a successful vaccina-
tion2
| Third. Why are people oe al classes
allowed to congregate at church twice
every Sunday without question be-
ing asked, as to whether they are i'm
mune from the dread disease, OF
whether they are liable to contaminate
others?
Fourth. Why are the theatres allow
ed to gather in crowds several times
week from the four corners of the
earth, regardless of their previous
state of vaccination, or without asking
them whether they come from small
pox infested regions or not2
| Fifth. Why are hundreds of farmers
allow ed to gather in this city for &
two days institute, even from POI
stricken towns in the county, and nt
vigilance committee from the all pow
erful board of health around to look a
their vaccination certificates, or tt
see if they come from families already
afflicted with the disease2
Sixth. Why are the dozen or more
lodges in the city allowed to hold theil
regular meetings each week, WHERE
scores of people gather from all part
of the city, and no representative o
the honorable board of health camping
on their trail, as they do on the trai
of lure, innocent children2
Seventh. Why are dances permitted
all over the city where people will
all sorts of diseases, breaths and charac
ters mingle together without an.
discrimination from the guardians o
the public healthH
Eighth. Why are church sociables
smoke socials. card parties and mum
. erous lesser social doings allowed
without a thought from the boar
that they might possibly spread SINAI
pox thicker and faster than all tn
l little children combined who atten
the public schools2
Now, Mr.. Editor, these question
might be continued at some length
D but this batch, if answered, Wi
Q probably explain the mystery. l al
l not kicker against the rule of vaccir
alton, and when my children wer
called upon to be vaccinated l had
