To MY Friends

It is with joy I tell you what
Kodol did for me. l was troubled
with my stomach for several months
Upon being advised to use Kodol, ]
did so, and words cannot tell the
good it has done me. A neighbol
had dyspepsia so that he had tried
most every thing. I told him to use
Kodol. Words of gratitude have
come to me from him because ]
recommended it.--Geo. W. Fry
Viola, Iowo. Health and strength
of mind and body depend on the
stomach, and normal activity of the
digestive organs. Kodol, the great
reconstructive tonic, cures all stomach
and bowel troubles, indigestion,
dyspepsia. Kodol d1gests any good
food you eat. Take a dose after
meals. J. R. Kruger.

The Friars in the Philippines.

Judge Tatt's mission at Rome re-
suited in a defining of the basis upon
which it will evidently prove feasible
to settle the land question, and to
dispose of various other disputes re-
lating to charitable, educational, and
ecclesiastical property. AS to the
withdrawal of the friars, it must be
remembered that this is matter of
no immediate corcern to the Ameri
can authorities. The people who are
most infexibly determined that these
Spanish members Of The religious
orders shall leave the islands are
Catholic parish priests and the whole
Filipino body of lay members of the
Church. This hostility is SO great
that the friars have not for several
years been able to occupy their lands,
or to oficiate in any way in the par
ishes where they were once power
full through the support of the Span
ish Government. It is not difficult to
understand. on reflection, that the
Vatican should dislike to be put in
the position of making direct agree
ment to withdraw the friars. In the
first place, this might be offensive to
important elements of Church sup
port in Spain; in second place, it
might be regarded as humiliating to
the great worldwide orders of which
these particular friars are members.
What the Vatican would prefer would
be to have this whole subject left to
the discretion of the Church author:-
ties, to be worked out gradually, and
without any show of compulsion OF
pressure. It would probably he re-
garded as violation of the treaty of
peace with Spain if the United Stat IS
should forcibly remove the friars from
the Philippines. The great point as
il seems to us, is gained when the
friars; titles to agricultural lands are
extinguished by the payment Of a
fair compensation. The Vatican
could have no motive for wishing to
have the proceeds of the sale OF those
lands used for the re-es adjustment
anywhere in the archipelago of Who'll
" unwelcome members of the re-
ligious orders. On one pretext or an
other, these frlars will inevitable be
withdrawn, and they will naturally
go either to Spain or to the South
American countries. Judge Taft's
sojourn at Rome will have proved
fairly successful in the end.-From
"The Progress of the World" in the
American Monthly Review of Reviews
for August.

Weather Bureau.

The weather during the week was
warm, though there were no un
usually high temperatures reported
except 100 at Campbell on the 18th
The weather was showery, there
being only two days in the week
without rain somewhere in the state:
the rains on the LIST were general
The rains came as thunderstorms
with locally heavy showers which
were accompanied by hail in several
places, and high winds which laid
corn and uncut grains fiat to the
ground in many fields, but these
affected areas we're relatively small.
In southeastern counties some fields
are still SO soft that binders are used
with difficulty. The harvesting of
early barley and oats has reached the
northern boundary, and spring wheat
cutting has advanced northw rd to
the middle Of the state. Wheat still
green is said to be filing we'll, but
in some south central portions it
seems to have ri pened too rapidly. |
In southern portions barley harvest is
about finished, and oat and spring
wheat cutting are we'll advanced. |
Barley and rye are being stacked,
and little thrashing of these grains
has been done from the shock. Some
fax on low land is not very good, but
the crop generally is a good one; it's
cutting has begun in the Southwest.
Corn continues to do we'll. The
early potato crop is about ripe. The
'uttlng of wild grass has been inter.
tered with by the high water in the
meadows. Timothy seed will soon be
,eadY to save.

MINNESOTA. A. S FAIR
1T WILL BE THE GREAT EVENT
OF 1902. EXHIBITIONS
CROWDING in.

) Promise of a Larger Attendance Tha
2 Ever, New Attractions Introduce
9 and The Best Old Ones Retained
From every pant of the northwes
comes the cry We are going to at
tend the State Fair during the frs
week of SEPTEMBER From the re
ports which come to the officers Of
the fair it appears that every part Of
the northwest will be we'll repre-.
sented. AS one man put it, This is
state fair year." Good crops, good
prices, good times aid a good fair
explain the situation.
The Minnesota state fair of 1902
will be larger than ever. Last years
National Live Stock exhibition will
be repeated on larger scale and re-
ports from other departments of the
fair show that exhibitors are expect
ing to increase their displays to
correspond with the increased ex-
hibit of cattle. The live stock de-
partment in every branch will be
|. phenomenal. An enormous sheep
exhibition building has been built to
care for the increasing focks which
want space at the Minnesota Fair
each year. In the horse department
it is certain that every stall will be
filled.
Last year when the new Agriculture
building was put up it was thought
it would take care of the department |
of farm products for at least a few |
years without crowding but this year
it will be hard work to get all horti-
cultural and agricultural exhibits in
to the building. The Exposition
Building was filled before the sum.
mer had hardly commenced and the
fair management has been forced to
plan large street for booths for
great number of exhibitors.
In the farm machinery department
it will be very difficult to find room
for all would be exhibitors and the
same is true of tie poultry building,
dairy building and women's building
and all the higher departments of
the fair,
Amuse have not been for
gotten, The race entry list for 1902
fair is the greatest and best list Of
horses eyer entered in a western fair
and is pronounced, by the highest
to equal any entry list of
any eastern grand circuit racing
association this year.
Marvellous opecialties will supple
ment the racing program and each
evening OF the fair there will be a
great entertainment consisting Of ,
racing under electric lights, balloon
ascension, bicycle and automobile
performances by Fitzpatrick and other ,
noted riders; and, finally, each night {

In the Legislature.

The two factions OF the Legislature
have been slow in coming together
for final struggle over the liquor
question. All the bitterness of the
late campaign seems to have been
boiled down for the last exciting
sessions of this week, but it is too
much to hope that the license ques-
ton will be settled in one day or in
two-days' trial of strength.
The majority bill of the temper
ance committee undoubtedly repre-
sents the sentiment so firmly ex-
pressed at the September election,
Notwithstanding the merits of the
Battell state store bill. 1t is, too,
Just what was promised by the Re-
publican platform, and the split in
the ranks now is unfortunate for tina,
party. The voters have made a
pretty loud demand and there, is
trouble ahead if it is not needed.

NOT IN SELF DEFENCE

The alleged finding Of an empty
she'll, since Frank Shaw's trial, in
the gun carried by DR.. Hoffman at
the time he was killed, is one feature
Of the evidence upon which com-
mutation of sentence in Shaw's case
is now urged. If this finding can
be established it might raise the pre-
sumption that DR.. Hoffman fired
first at Frank Shaw, and that the
latter returned the fire in self de-
fence.
To St. Adams Messenger re-
porter Deputy Sheriff r. A. Spaf-
ford, who was with Hoffman at the
time he was killed, emphatically de-
MED that DR.. Hoffman fired first or
that there was any exchange OF shots
between the two men.
The gun carried by Dr.. Hoffman
was borrowed by DR.. George Steph-
ems, who still has it.

THIRD SATURDAY OF EVERY
HORSES AND HORSEMEN
THE 2.IO LIST.

The phenomenal increase in z.1o
trotters and PAGERS during the last
decade is demonstration of the
progress which has been made in
the breeding and development of
the harness horse.
AT the close of the racing season
Of 1892 the 2.Io list contained the
names of I3 trotters and IS PAGERS.
Today the fast trotters number 164
and the PAGERS Az.
The season just closed furnished
40 trotters, only two short of the
total number of a.Io performers 10
years ago. The pacing division was
helped along hy 81 additions this
year, but their showing is not in the
same class with that of the trotters.
For a9 trotters to get inside the
select circle in one season is some
thing that was not even thought pos
sible before.
Each one of the e5 new a.Io
performers gained their records in
races and Ida Highwood and Louise
Jefferson were driven by amateurs
to wagon.
Major Delmar heads the list of
new 2.lo trotters and Direct Hal
that for PAGERS. Delmar started out
with a record of 2.I5 made as :.
year.old, while Direct Hal began
the campaign without a mark. Del.
mar won over $4,000 during the
season and Direct Hal $2a,5

THIS CALF A GOOD SWIMMER

A six-weeks-old calf from Lon
donderry escaped from a cattle car
at Brattleboro the other day and was
recaptured after long swim in the
Connecticut. He was an exceed
ingly sleek calf and very agile.
" lille his companions were being
unloaded he jumped over the head
of F. w. Melendy and sailed up the
railroad closely pursued by H. p.
Reed, baggagemaster on the narrow
gauge, and Rags, the depot dog.
When up about as tar as the rea,
of the town hall the calf hit upon a
plan of eluding his pursuers by
leaving the state. Down the bank
he went and into the river, striking
out boldly for the New Hampshire
shore. Baggage'naster Reed and
Express Agent Melendy stood on
the bank and wrung their hands.
They were afraid Col. Bond would
see the calf from the rear OF Greene's
store and shoot him in the head with
his Mauser. Rags barked loudly.
When half way across the river
the calf seemed to think better of his
resolution and turned back, but when
he saw the group awaiting him he
wheeled and once more headed to-
ward New Hampshire. He circled
the toll bridge pier on the further
side, rested a moment in the eddy
below and then struck out for the
lower island.
The calf finally approached the
shore and was captured after DIES.
