State Tennis Tourney.

Preparations for the annual tournament
for the Tennis Championship of the North
west have been practically completed,
and there is promise that the meeting
will be one of the most successful ever
held in the state. Ward C. Burton, Of
the sports committee of the Minnetonka
club, who has been in communication
with the crack tennis players of the
West, estimates that about forty men
will participate in the events.
The tourney will be under the auspices
of the Minnetonka club at Deephaven, be-
ginning next. Monday, and continuing
on the lake shore of Deephaven will be
used between the No. 8 and No green's
of the golf courts. There are six courts
in all, and all will be used if necessary.
attendance. In fact, nearly all of the
foremost players of the West will par
ticipate in the contests Among these
will be A. G. Snow, of Chicago, the pres
ent champion, who will have to defend
the title; Mr.. Waidner, Ashcraft, Roche,
of the tri-state tourney - ;sancinItat
last week. Mr. Collins is also from the
Windy City. Cincinnati will send DiehI,
Miller, Emerson and a number of others,
while other Western cities will be repre-
scented Helmholz, of Milwaukee, will
also be here. L. D. Little, the all Western
champion, is expected to attend, but at
the present time he is not certain about
coming. Nothing has been heard from
Edwin Clapp. the st Paul crack, and it
is not known whether he will figure in
the tourney. Harry Belden, of Mime
apol1s, is looked upon as a strong cancs-
date in the play 70 the Northwestern
championship matches. Other strong To-
cal players will make a bid for the high
honors, and the indications point to lively
contests all around.

UNITED EFFORT NEEDED.

Every citizen who seeks the city's
betterment will rejoice at the action
taken respectively by DR.. Ohage and
the members of the West Side I'm
provement association. The attitude
which that organization has thought
proper to assume toward the efforts of
DR.. Ohage for the preservation of the
free baths from enduring injury has
not been creditable either to the good
sense or the civic worth of it's mem
bers. The new relation, however,
shows that both the distinguished
health commissioner and the members
of the West side body have really been
working toward the same end, the en-
during gain of the entire community
Acting in conjunction they can do great
good along the lines on which each has
operated in the past
The Sixth ward is that section Of
the city whose people ought to take es-
peclal pride in the public baths, and be
prepared to make the most extensive
sacrifices for their maintenance on a
plane of the greatest possible measure
OF public usefulness. 1t is, too, a sec
tlor OF the city which at this time is
being built up at more rapid rate of
PROCESS than perhaps any other section

GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

The Frawley company has departed
somewhat from the usual style of
summer productions, in producing
melodramas, but the departure has
met with the hearty Endorsement of
local playgoers, as was thoroughly
evidenced by the large audience which
witnessed 'Blue Jeans" at the Grand
again last evening. The story of ''Blue
Jeans" is too we'll known to the ma
jority of play-goers to require any
special mention, but suffice it to say
that the various members of the COM
pany all appear to good advantage and
the stage settings and costumes are
adequate in every way. There are a
number of thrilling moments during
the action of the piece, the sensational
saw-mill scene being especially eff
fectiYe. Miss Charlotte Parry in the
role of June surprised her many ST.
Paul friends by her very clever work.
Tomorrow at 2:90 the first afternoon
performance will be given.
For the third week of it's stay at
the Grand Opera house, the Frawley
company will present William Gil
lette's great war drama, Secret Ser
vice." This play has been frequently
commented upon as being the best war
play ever written by an American au-
thor and the announcement of it's pro-
duction by the Frawley company the
coming week will undoubtedly be re-
ceived with much pleasure by theater-

CAPITAL INVESTED IN
FARMING OPERATIONS
Twenty and -Qne-haIf Billions Is the
Amount-Fixed by the Cen
Sus Bureau.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 21-The
census bureau today issued a bulletin
giving the conditions of agriculture in
the United States for the year 1900.
lt SHOWS that there were at that time
5,I39,657 farms in the entire country,
which were valued at $16,674,6 94, PAT.
or this anou1t $3,56O,19S,191, or over
Il per cent, represented the value of
buildings and $2,114 ,492,056, or over rs
per cent, represented the value of lands
ana improvements other than build
lngs The value of farm implements
and machinery was 1851, 261, $50, and
or 1--we stock $3,07S, 050,041. These
values added to the value of the farm
gives total value of farm property
amounting to S20,514, 0O1 1873. The total
value Of farm products for 1899 is
given at $4,739,11S,752, of which
amount $1,718,990,221 was for animal
products. The bulletin places the
average size of farms in the United
States at 146 acres and it is stated that
40 per cent of the farm land is i'm
proved. The total acreage for the en-
tire country was SAL POL 46.
The number of farms in the United
States has increased in every decade
for the last fifty years and so rapidly
that in 1900 there were nearly four
times as many farms as in 1850 and 25
per cent more than in 1890. The total
acreage of farm land also has increas-
ed, but up to 1880 less rapidly than the
number of farms, thus involving a
steady decrease in the average size of
farms. Since 1890, however, the total
acreage has increased more rapidly
than the number of farms, so that the
average size of farms has increased.
The total area of improved land has
increased in every decade since 1850.
A comparison by states indicates
that the most important states in ag
riculture of the country are, begin
ming at the West, Missouri, Iowa, II
linois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania and
New York. Together they contribute
A per cent Of the total value of farm
property and .38 per cent of the total
value of farm products.
Iowa has 229,622 farms and leads the
list in the percentage of improved
lands, more than sc per cent of the
farm lands of that state being improv
ed. Here are some of the values OF
farm lands: Minnesota, 8,6S4,642;
Wisconsin, $911, 712,319.

THE cITY,s GREAT NEED

The withdrawal of Mr.. Ambrose
Tighe from the charter commission.
while regrettable event in itself. has
been productive of great good to the
community in directing attention to
the fiscal conditions attending the
making of needed public improve
ments.
Mayor Smith, in his last mes
sage, advised the public in a general
way of the existence of the conditions
pointed out by Mr.. Tighe The latter.
however, supplements Mayor Smiths
representations by going more exhaus-
lively into the cause and the chief con-
sequences Of such a situation.
1t is quite evident, according to Mr..
Tighe's presentation of the matter.
that the remedy suggested by the may
or will not be adequate to furnish the
taxpayers the relief demanded. Mr..
Tighe now leaves it beyond all reason
able doubt that nothing short of
legislation, framed on the most init
mate knowledge of the city's funda-
mental law, will meet the situation.
Mr.. Tighes retirement from the
charter commission, it will be obsery-
ed, follows close upon his announce
ment of his intention to seek the Re-
publican nomination for the house Of
representatives in the Seventh ward
in the forthcoming elections. The i'm
pelling motive of Mr.. Tighe's candi-
dacy may now be said to be made plain
by the letter which he addresses to the
district judges in connection with his
retirement. That motive is as credit
able to its authors citizenship as is the
laborious part which he has borne in
the effort to secure such substantial
changes in the city's organic law as
would save the municipality from the
bitter experiences of the past five or
ten years.
In no direction have the taxpayers
a more direct or important duty to
perform in the selection of their Off
cial representatives than in connection
with the choice of the legislative dele
cation from this county. This is, OF
course, true as a general principle ap-
plying to public concerns. In the pres
ent situation of the city the duty be-
comes imperative. There is nothing in
the position of legislative representa-
i've to induce men of Mr. Tighe's
standing and attainments to seek il
unless animated purely by desire tc

of the community. The work which
the West Side association has set it
self to do has to some extent purely
local and personal significance; but the
resulting effect on the entire city Of its
being well and fully done is necessarily
great, and the aid which DIR. Ohage and
those who sustain him in his efforts
can render in the accomplishment of
many of the objects of the West side
people is undoubtedly great.
Among the prime needs of the West
side, for instance, is that of increased
fire protection. Existing provision liz
this regard is totally inadequate, and
becoming more so each day that the
West Side advances toward the in
creased Importance industrially and in
point of population which everybody
sees in store for that section of the
city in the immediate future. TIL e
G o mas no thought of aiding in the
foolish idea prevalent among some peo-
pie that the West side has interests
which are not shared by the city at
large. 1t is pleasant to observe that
public spirit which shows itself among
West size residents, even where it as
sumes a tinge of locality But neither
the West side, nor any other locality
Of the city, is going to advance accord
ing to its possibilities unless the entire
city advances correspondingly and I'M
less the people of the entile city lend
their aid in that advancement.
1t will not be long until the members
of the West Side Improvement asso-
citation and all other residents across
the river will realize that in the free
public baths and pleasure grounds es-
tablished on Harriet island they have
most important factor in the growth
and development Of their locality, as
we'll as an object worthy of the high
est public admiration and of the eff
! forts of all citizens to extend rather
than to curtail its usefulness. The
same spirit which called it into exist
ence will alene be adequate to the full
! development Of the possibilities of the
region across the river; and it is only
! by giving effect to that spirit that all
citizens, wherever they live within the
| city limits, can hope to lend their best
aid to the development of the best in
| terests Of the entire city and of all its
/ people.

render public service even at the cost
of great personal sacrifice. In this in
stance it is only by the selection of dis.
interested and self-sacriflcing men as
our representatives in the next house
that the city can hope to be relieved
permanently of the legal letters which
attend the most efficient administration
of it's affairs.
This subject is one of surprising i'm
portance to our people; and T h e
G 0 b e freely urges on those IN charge
of the Democratic organizations in the
several localities that in the selection
of candidates for the legislature from
this county special attention be be-
slowed on securing the nomination of
members OF the party of recognized
familiarity with the needs of the city,
through whom the taxpayers may be
relieved of the needless and onerous
burdens which now rest on them
through ill-conceived charter legisla-
ton.
