the part of the patrons of the service for
it. Everything will depend upon. them

help create a demand for the special de-

will be essentially the "quick" service
intended by its originators. 49,.

also investigate the letter box service on

been some complaint lately. He will also
make a general inspection of the free
delivery service in Minneapolis.

Rival Candidates for the Speaker

District Caucus.
Babcock Men Trying to Stir Up
Strife in the Hennepin

This was still hunt day in the Minnesota
speakership contest. The rival candi-
dates were busy telegraphing and tele-
phoning to. undecided members, and TAX
ing stock Of their strength
Tomorrow the first district steering
committee will meet in st. Paul to decide
whom it will support. The committee of
five has full authority to act for the f1f
teen members from the first. The one
pledge to Babcock has been withdrawn,
and all are free to act.
The district is anti-Babcock, and will
not declare for him unless the Wfadena
doctor can show positive proof of his
claims. If they are satisfied that he does
not need their votes to win, he can have
them. If the first Is necessary to his
election, he can't have it.
Both candidates are carefully balancing
up their books for the inspection of the
first. Each one wants to make as strong
showing as possible. The ninth is still
undecided, and in view of the caucus at
crookston Tuesday, pledges from there
are not in order The best ninth district
members can do is to agree to vote for
Babcock or Johnson in the district caucus.
DR. Babcock said to-day that he had ia
vorable answers from five Of the thirteen.
An equal number are known to favor
Johnson, and the Johnson men are conf
dent that they can swing majority of
the district.
Babcock men deny that there is any
break in the sixth district. They say that
the eleven are all bound by the caucus &C
ton and that no one has asked to be re-
leased. However, the administration
forces are sure of three, and expect to
get two others to ask for their release.
Johnson has four votes in the second
district, and expects to get majority,
but the district will probably not caucus.

Lawrence H. Johnson, the anti Babcock

will be able to demonstrate his strength
tomorrow to the first district steering
committee, and that they will indorse his
candidacy.
DR.. Babcock is equally sure. His mana

votes enough, and when the time comes

Impartial observers, however, say that
the Babcock men are counting some OF

They do not believe the doctor hos votes
enough to nominate, and unless he gets
unlocked for Endorsement from the first
and the ninth, he can never land the Of

New England, one of the NEST pathetic
and interesting stories of homelife known
to the annals of the stage, was played
last night at Sutton's New Grand to a
far too small audience. Yet it was an
audience SO deeply interested as the plot
unfolded that more than one forgot to
brush away the tears, but let them dry
unheeded.
Not all pathos, just touch of it here
and there of comedy, the laughter and

climax which makes the heart beat
quickly. So often has it been played
that every one knows the story, of the
obstinate old Martin Berry, determined

young doctor, whose sin in Martins eyes
is that he has thew fangled' ideas and
reads Darwin, Huxley and Tom Paine
and prescribes ''sugar-coated shot,"
being a homeopathic physician.
