Warren sheaf. [volume] (Warren, Marshall County, Minn.) 1880-current, 1902-10-16

We desire to call attention to
the synopsis OF the proposed con-
stitutional amendments found on an
other page. They should be read
carefully by every voter who wants
to vote intelligently on this subject.
-Four amendments to the constitu-
tion are proposed and will be sub
a1itted to the voters at the coming
election. They are all important
and clearly interests OF the people.
One provides for an increase OF the
gross earninas tax on railroads from
three to four per cent. thus making
the railway corporations carry their
just share Of the burden OF taxation.
Another makes provision for in
ereasing the loans that can be made
from the state school and university
fund to school districts, counties and
towns. Instead of being compelled
to invest the permanent school fund
in the bonds of other states and
municipalities, the money might as
we'll he loaned in the state, and thus
contribute to our own development.
Another amendment opens the way
for the passage OF a. model tax law.
One reason why the late tax CON-
mission were unable to formulate
and present a tax law in accordance
with the most advanced ideas as to
methods OF taxation and suited to
to present conditions was on ac-
count of constitutional limitations.
The passage OF this amendment will
pave the way for needed reforms in
our system of taxation. The other
amendment concerns state aid in
road and bridge building and is
certainly in the interest OF the newer
and more thinly settled counties of
the state. Each one OF these amend
ments ought to pass, but in order to
do so it must receive over One-half
OF the votes cast at the election. 70
vote for them it is necessary TO
MARK THE BALLOT after the
word eyes" for each amendment.
TO make no mark at all is the same
as q vote against the amendment.
1t very important therefore that the
voter does not skip the amendments
but marks each one separately. In
order that the voter shall not over
look the amendments, they will be
placed first on the ballot. The voter
has no more important duty at the
coming election than to vote for the
constitutional amendments.

Warmed Up Meats.

To make warmed up meats appe-
thing there are various commodi-
ties which ought to always occupy
a place in the pantry. Have a small
jar Of onion butter, a bottle Of cara
mel, glass can filled with Drowned
-four, a jar Of finely rolled bread
crumbs, worcestershire sauce, eel
cry salt, mace, bay leaves, bottle
of Oscar sauce, tabasco, cayenne,
curry, catchup, canned mushrooms,
paprika, kitchen bouquet and horse
radish. The secret of appetizing
food is good havoring, and a fre-
quent varying of flavor has more to
do with tempting table than q
large butcher bill.

der General Herrera in the Province of
Panama. Ii is thought that with this
overwhelming force, the revolution Will be
crushed.
No advices have been received at the
Colombian Legation here from Governor
SalaZra of Panama rega riding the situation

revoludonists have besieged General Berti
and cut off communication with his base
of supplies on the Pacific Coast. But it
is thought at the legation that. even If so
out until relieved by the re-enforcements
which have been sent from Colombia TO the
Atlantic Coast of Panama
There are, al the present time. under
General Bertl's command 1900 Colombian
regulars. The additional re-enforcements
will bring the strength up 10 17OO0 and the
campaign will be waged severely II Gen
eral Gonzales takes command in person.
The success which the 400 revoIutionists
under General Herrera are meeting in
their struggle against nearly twice that
number OF Government troops commanded
by General Bert Is accounted for by the
fact that the revOlutiOnists are fighting in
their own country. which lies in a tropical
region. while the regulars are for the most
part from the mountain regions and un-
used to tropic campaigns
If these re-enforcements land at Chiriqul
they will be distant only fifty miles from

two places are bad. will be able to reach

WILL REOPEN "oLEo" QUESTION
Manufacturers Ask for Ruling on
the Use of Palm Oil.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL


Washington, Aug. 17.-What will practi-
caly amount to a reopening of the whole
oleomargarine question soon will be SUBJ
mitted to Internal Revenue Commissioner
Yerkes- That officer already has decided
that the use of palm oil az an ingredient of
oleoE1argarine is unlawful because IL used
as submitted to him in samples il would
be deleterious TO health, while IL used In
small quantities its effect would be solely
to give the color Of natural butter TO the
product.
Instead Of taking this decision to the
courts, the oleomargarine interests have de-
cided TO place before the Commissioner the
further question whether palm oil can be
used at all in oleomargarine IL the oil is
pure and not used to obtain the color of
butter. 1t will he used in the same propor-
tion that cotton-seed oil is now used II is
to be refined and purified, so that no OBJ
lection can be raised on the ground of taste
or odor.
If the Commissioner decides in their IA
vor. it practically will win for the oleomar-
garine men the point for which they have
been contending, as the palm oil will nat
urally have the effect of coloring the
oleomargarine yellow, so that II will look
like butter.
IL was to prevent this that the oleomarga-
rine law was prepared at the last session
Of Congress II the Commissioner decides
against the plan and rules that the palm
oil is used only for the purpose of coloring
the product. then the case will be taken to
the courts

THERE WILL BE NO CONTEST"
SO Declares Herman Oelrichs, Re
ferring to Fair Estate
REPUBLIC SPECI.


San Francisco. Aug. T.-'There will be no
contest over the will of the late Charles
Fair-at least so far as Mrs. Oelrichs and
Mrs. Vanderbilt are concerned" said Her
man Oelrichs tonight. We are perfectly
willing to let the matter rest as it stands.
and If there is any contest II will come
from the relatives on the other side
II deeply regret the action of the rela-
tives Of Mrs. Fair. who, in their desire to
obtain possession of the estates have mani
tested what seems to me to be undue haste
in the matter. Ii seems TO me that the
question of the disposition of the dead
mans property could well go over until We
get the bodies of the poor unfortunates
here and laid underground"
In the event of a contest, would the rel
atives of Mr.. Fair entertain proposition
of a compromise?" Mr. Oelrichs was
asked.
Compromise? There is nothing to COM
promise. L have told you there will be no
confessional is we will make none-and
why compromise without a contest?
II will say. however. that the interests
of Mrs. Fairs relatives will be safegItarded.
but beyond this there will be nothing that
could possibly be construed as a contest"
Mr. Oelrichs added that he had lust gone
through a six years will contest and he
intimated that he craved for, no more liti-
cation.
Il have no doubt" continued Mr.. Oelrichs
that this matter will be adjusted In due
time to the satisfaction of all. Let US hope
at least.
