could be given to show that Mr.. Bowling
would have from the beginning standing
ana lnnuence In congress which 1t would
take either Of the other gentlemen years
to achieve. "a u ag
Z 1T thus appears that, while fully the
equal of either Mr.. Young or Mr.. VAL
stead IN the general and fundamental
qualifications Of character and capacity,
ME- bowling is vastly their superior in
those qualifications which specially fit one
for effective work in congress. In their
homes and by their. firesides the people
OF the seventh district are weighing these
gentlemen in the balance. Investigation
of their relative merits is, bound to work
to the advantage Of Mr.. Bowling. His
strength Is bound to be a growing
strength. He will win because he ought
to win. -@
MT. DoWling's remarkable career is the
most striking example within my personal
knowledge of what can be accomplished
by high and honorable ambition, indom-
table courage, untiring energy and clear
grit, underlaid by unwavering integrity
seemingly unconquerable difficulties. Long
after what remains Of his body shall have
mouldered in the dust, the story of his
life will be told in prose and in verse
as AM inspiration to the youth Of our be-
loved land. One of the things in my life
as teacher that I look back to with
the greatest pride and pleasure is the
fact that shortly after Mr.. Bowling met
with the accident which lost him his
limbs and nearly cost him his life. I had
the opportunity to contribute something
to the education for which he was strug-
Cling. And years from now thousands of
good men and women Of the seventh dis
trict will look back with supreme salts
faction upon the fact that they helped
Mr.. Dowling. to get his first nomination

that it would be a quarter Of century

AMBULANCE Is SLOW
DR.. Bevans Sharply Criticizes the
Health Department.

Health Department.
The failure of the quarantine ambulance
to respond promptly to an urgent call In
a diphtheria case, prompted DR.. G. j.
Bevans, assistant city physician, to say
mean things" about Health Commis-
sioner P. M. Hall last evening. When
second case of diphtheria developed yes
terday in the McCabe family, IS Twen-
tieth avenue S, DR.. Bevans says he called
up DR.. Hall at $50 p. m. and asked that
the quarantine ambulance be sent imme-
diately to the McCabe residence. AL
though the childs condition made its
speedy removal to the hospital 1mpera-
tive, he says that the ambulance did not
arrive until 10 O'Clock, and it was after
midnight before the child was removed to
the hospital. The delay in getting the
ambulance, DR.. Bevans asserts, Is due to
the enforcement of a rule by DR.. Hall that
the wagon shall not respond to calls after
6 p. m.
DR.. Hall explained that, as the am
bulance Is stationed at Hopkins, it
necessarily takes considerable time to
drive into the city. He declared that DR..
Bevans had habit of labelling all of his
cases "emergency," and that he always
waits until night before ordering the
wagon.
Incidentally he remarked that Bevans
is "sore'' because he was dropped from
the health department, and that he is bent
on creating friction between the commits
stoner and City Physician Nelson.

AUTO HIGHWAY IS A GO
Col. Pope Delighted With Success of
Movement for Chicago-New
York Road.

The continuous highway between New
York and Chicago is becoming less and
less chimerical. Colonel Albert "A. Pope,
president of the New York and Chicago
Road association, was in New York yes
terday and expressed himself as highly
gratifed at what has thus far been ac-
complished.~ He said it was more than
he had been able to do ten years ago,
after ten years work and an expenditure
of more than $4,000.
Statistics have been obtained showing
where good roads now exist along the
route and in the sum these amount to
$50 miles, while the total distance is only
$50. Indiana is the only state in which
the laws will have to be amended.
In about week Treasurer Dickinson
will make the trip overland in an auto
mobile along the proposed route to COM
plete the details necessary to start the
ball a-rolling. All those connected with
the project declare it to be feasible and
are sanguine Of speedy success.

ABUNDANCE OF WATER
A Flowing Well Struck at Fort
Smelling.

The new drive we'll at Fort Smelling
was accepted yesterday byaColonel Pond,
chief quartermaster of the department,
who is supervising the improvements at
the fort. The we'll discharges 1000 gal
Ions of water minute. The depth of
the we'll is $50 feet. The pipe has passed
through lower strata of sandstone and
terminates in the shale. A ten-inch
stream of water rises sixty feet above
the river. But the flow will be pumped
still higher to a reservoir upon the bluff.
Formal authority has been received by
Colonel Pond to erect this season at
Smelling barracks, gun sheds and stables
necessary for the two batteries of field
artillery that will be stat toned at the
post. Should the artillery arrive before
spring the officers can occupy temporarily
the old cottages in ID row" now used
by non-commissioned officers Of the Twen-

A GREAT ANIMAL SHOW
WILL BE THAT AT STATE FAIR
How to Take Care of Fancy Cattle
q Problem-New Rule Regard
ing Carriages.

Colonel W. NJ Liggett of the state fair
board of managers and superintendent of
the cattle division, says that the only
question now for his department at the
coming fair is how to take care OF the
animals which will be on exhibition. En-
tries are coming from every direction and
there Is every indication that the ami
mails will not only be very numerous but
that their quality will be the very best
ever seen in a livestock exhibition in this
country.
Colonel A. NJ. Judy of Williamsport,
Ind, recently called on Colonel Liggett
to consult with him with reference to an
exhibition of his animals at the coming
fair. Colonel Judy Is a very prominent
breeder and importer of Aberdeen Angus
cattle. He now has in quarantine fifty
five head of pure bred cattle, just being
imported from Scotland. 1t was Colonel
Judy who bred the Aberdeen-A Angus bull
which sold for the highest price ever
paid for such an animal and he also bred
a Hereford bull for which he obtained
$4,000. Colonel Judy will have fine herd
of Aberdeen-Angus cattle at the state
fair and his information Is that there will
be a very representative display of ami
mails present.
The auction sale of Shorthorns and
Herefordss will take place Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday, Sept l, 2 and
3, beginning at 10 a. m. The sale will
be in the big circus tent and will be ex-
tremely interesting even to those who
are not buyers or sellers.
Carriages Free.
The board Of managers have decided, on
recommendation of President G. N. Co.'S
grove, ,ssto admit alLearriages, buggies and
teams free to the fair grounds at the
| coming fair.s The transportation problem
Is the greatest oneas,Xhich confronts the
fair and the managerssWtsh to encourage
the use Of private vehicles as much as
possible. @<srssa~a-~-. .<srs-.,.
Tickets for the fair are now on sale in
both Minneapolis and st. Paul. Large
lines will be used for jobbing and manu-
featuring houses of the two cities and in
dividuals will find it convenient to pur-
chase in advance and avoid the rush at
the ticket booths at the fair grounds.

The theaters to be represented will be
the Metropolitan, Bijou and Dewey Of
Minneapolis and the Metropolitan Grand
and Star in st. Paul. The officers will
probably be L. N. Scott, president; Theo-
dore M. Hays, vice president; W. w.

the first acts Of the organization will be
to attack that bugbear of the boxofice,
