FOR THE WHOLE TICKET.

MS Is Tue ldSt Cnduce lHe LIN
une has before election, to urge it's
readers to attend the polls next
Tuesday and discharge their duty as
American citizens. In the discharge
of that duty we unreservedly believe
the best interest of the state and ma
tion will he conserved by support of
the republican ticket, headed by
Robert M. LaFollette for Governor.
While it is freely admitted that the
disparity in honesty purity of char
acter and ability, that is recognized
between Governor LaFollette and
his democratic competitor, does not
appear between all other opposing
candidates, The Tribune boldly
maintains that on the whole the re-
publican ticket, state, Legislature and
county, has the most to commend
and that the nominees are in gen
eral better fitted for the positions to
which they aspire and deserve more
of public confidence and support
than their opponents.
But what the candidates stand for
is of much more Importance than
their personality. Governor LaFoll-
cite and his associates on the state
ticket are recognized champions Of
certain policies in state government
which the republican party in three
conventions has approved. The re-
publican nominee for congressman is
known to be in harmony with the
governmental principles and policies
represented by President Roosevelt
and illustrated in his recent great
work of bringing the calamitous coal
miners strike tie IA conclusion. The
republican candidates for state sem
ator and assemblyman, if elected,
will surely support for L. =. senator
"a man who will ably and faithfully
hold up the hands of the president,
as John G. Spooner has done; and
besides will do their full part in the
legislature to have the republican
platform pledges redeemed by ade-
quate laws. Each nominee on the
county ticket can be depended on to
perform faithfully and satisfactorily
the duties of the office for which he
is named. AS most of these nomi-
nees have served the people of Iowa
county heretofore, and have been
commended in the columns of the
Tribune, it seems unnecessary to
elaborate on each at this time, but
to keep them fresh in minds of voters,
their names are repeated below, rs
they will be found on the election
ballot next Tuesday;

a firm believer in the effectiveness of
the tackling dummy for developing
players when it was first brought into
use at Princeton when he was trainer
there.
His new arrangement makes the
dummy more ifelike, for when a play
er tackles it as hard as he should the
actual dummy part falls from the rope
which suspends it through the action
of a spring.
A new suit which bids fair to attain
some popularity this year is made in
practically one piece, as the jacket and
breeches are Joined by an elastic band.
Such suit was worn good deal last
year and the year before, but was not
made as one. The band at the waist is
an advantage, as it removes the posi-
bility of an opponent making tackle
by getting his hand under the jacket
or trousers.

St. Louis Fair Lady Managers Say
Dances Must BE Decent.
The Midway at the st. Louis. exposi-
ton is going to be sprightly and up to
date, but it will not depend on, un-
wholesome features to give it popular
ity, says a special from st. Louis to
the New York World. Miss Helen NJ.
Gould is looking out for tLis and is
supported by the entire board of lady
managers. Miss Gould recently intro
duced this resolution, which was unan-
imously adopted:
"It is the earnest desire of the board
Of lady managers Of the worlds fair
that there be no indecent dances or
other improper exhibits in the Midway
during the exposition and that the Ex-
position company be urged to use the
utmost care in awarding concessions
for the shows in order that there be
no Objectionable features"
First of all, the ''hoochie-coochie"
dance will be barred. In the discussion
preceding the adoption of the resolu-
tion references were made to the
dances (which were feature of the
Chicago exposition, and it was hoped
that similar exhibits would not be per-
mitted 4fos cast stain upon the name
OF the Louisiana purchase show.
The lady managers are going to keep
sharp eye on the concessions made to
Midway managers, and any who pre-
sent performances not in keeping with
the clean policy decided upon will be
given short shrift.
Miss Gould announced that she would
be pleased to entertain the members of
the board at her home in New York
on Nov. II, the date set for the next
meeting. The invitation was accepted,
with expressions Of much pleasure.

WHO OWNS PATOSi
The Latest Controversy of Great
Britain and Venezuela.

The Latest Controversy of Great
Britain and Venezuela.
The present British Venezuelan cri-
sis recalls the one in 1895, when in a
dispute over contested territory Presi-
dent Cleveland espoused the cause of
Venezuela to the extent Of declaring
in q message to congress in December
Of that year that the United States
would resist any attempt by Great
Britain to enforce it's claims, says the
Baltimore Sun.
Mr.. Cleveland proposed an American
commission to define the boundary,
and congress passed bill appropriate
ing 100000 to pay the expenses.
The completion of this commissions
work was made unnecessary by the
British consenting to joint arbitration.
In the treaty Of Washington, signed
Feb. 2, 1897, it was provided that a
tribunal, consisting of five members,
should be chosen to act as a final
board Of arbitration between Great
Britain and Venezuela. Baron Her
schel and Richard 81. Collins, a justice
Of the British supreme court of judi
cature, represented Great Britain,
while Venezuela chose as her cham
pions Chief Justice Fuller and Justice
David ]. Brewer, both Of the United
States supreme court. The fifth men,
ber Of the board, M. de Mertens, chief
counselor of the Russian foreign Office,
was chosen by the other four, accord
ing to the provisions Of the Washing
ton treaty.
This tribunal sat at The Hague and
gave decision partly favorable to the
contentious Of both nations.
The dispute about Patos, which has
accentuated the present controversy,
became acute but recently. The island
Of Patos, or Patio, is in the northern
entrance to the Gulf of Paria and lies
near the middle of the strait which is
known as the "Dragon's Mouth" 1t is
few miles from the mainland Of Ven
ezuela and a little farther from the
shore of the British island of Trinidad.
In an atlas Of recent date Patos is re-
corded as Venezuelan island.
The controversy over the island is
old, as similar protests We're made by
Venezuela in 1859 and 1867. Great
Britain claims the island by virtue Of
the treaty Of Amiens, signed in 1902,
according to which Trinidad was ceded
to England, and the British consider
that the island Of Patos is tributary
to Trinidad. Venezuela contends that
the island was not mentioned in that
treaty and consequently did not pass
into the possession of England, but re-
mained under the sovereignty Of Spain
until the independence Of Venezuela.
when the latter country obtained pos
session Of it. The Venezue1ans say
that the sovereignty of their govern
ment over the island was confirmed BY
the treaty signed in Madrid in 1916
They also, point to the geographical
position Of the island, which, they de-
clare, is less than three miles from the.
Venezuelan coast.

Fanily-oId Resident of the @
Red River Valley Passes
Away at Fargo.

p . --
An inquest was held at Park River
over the remains of Nels Johnson of
Willmar, Mimi, who was shot by an
Indian near Park River The verdict
was that the deceased was shot by
Adam Martin, an Indian, while the
latter was defending his wife and
children from indecent advances.
Testimony was introduced to show
that Johnson went from town with
whisky, announcing his intention of
having some fun with the Indians;
that when he arrived at the camp he
made offensive overtures to women
of Martins family; that Martin warn
ed him to desist, and that finally,
when the warnings were unheeded
Martin shot Johnson with a shotgun.
There apears to be no ground to hold
any one except Martin, and the feel
ing is that he will be acquitted when
the case comes up for trial.
