TO BUILD UP MEMBERSHIP
FINE ART SOCIETY WORKING
Artists May he Encouraged by Cash
Prizes-A Special Program
Tonight.

"A special effort to increase the mem
.bership of the Minneapolis Society Of
Fine Arts IS being planned by the board
of directors. The special purpose of this
movement is to increase also the funds
of the society to enable 1t to offer in
ducements to artists to send their best
work to the local exhibitions. 1t is the
desire of the society to offer a cash prize
or medal for the annual exhibitions.
Before deciding to change the exhibi-
tions from spring to fall, letters were sent
to all the artists who have exhibited un-
der the auspices of the society, asking
their opinions of the change. These were

An exhibition of the work of pupils
of the art school has been sent to St.
Cloud to be shown at the meeting of the
Northern Minnesota Teachers assocta-
tion. 1t included part of the Pan-Ameri-
can exhibit and some later work.
The cattle picture by Henry Bisbing.
shown with the Thurber collection few
weeks ago, has been added to the eX-
hibition In the public library gallery. The
appreciation Of the exhibition being shown
by the large attendance has induced the
directors to arrange to keep it open as
long as possible, and it will continue
through Monday evening, March II. The
of the visitors being school children and
teachers and the Sunday attendance was
large. The educational value of the ex-
hibition is inestimable, for. owing to the
fact that it is free, people drop in fre-
quently and are really making study of
the pictures.
Music This Evening.
An added attraction this evening at the
exhibition will be musical program, fol-
lowed by paper on "Impressionism in

Gain for the Indians.

Indian Commissioner Jones is full OF
enthusiasm over the practical working
of the experiment of cutting off the is
sue of government rations to Indians,
so far as it has been tried. He enlarges
on the demoralizing effect Of the ra-
tons evil in the past, and points with
pride to the gain in self-reliance by the
Indians who have been put on the self
supporting basis. No one doubts that 1T
will be a great gain both to the In
dams and to the nation when all the
aborigines are treated in the same
manner, but Difference to eastern phil
anthropic notions necessarily makes the
progress of the change rather slow.
The same paper says: Those Ne
braska Indians who want the exclusive
Indian schools abolished and their chill
dren sent to the regular public schools.
to mingle with white children. are on
the right track. Their complaint that
their children can not acquire the
proper spirit of civilization when segre-
gated, and that such segregation makes
them feel as if they were regarded as
an inferior race, is well taken. Posi-
bly, the white children would object to
mingling with the reds, but such OBJ
lection is not likely to be very general
There Is less objection among whites to
personal association with Indians-I
the latter are reasonably clean-than to
negroes; and yet negro children are
received in the public schools Of the
great majority of the northern states.

Antaeonizina Militia.
New York Morld.l

| The better brains of the labor or
CARNATIONS disapprove the action of
the local union in Schenectady in ex-
pelling and depriving of his employ
ment member who belongs to the
in answer to question by Judge
Gray, of the presidents arbitration
commission. that "a member of trade
union who is a member of the state
militia should not escape service, but
should willingly perform all the du-
ties of citizenship and accept all the
responsibilities that go with them"
Labor organizations would make a
fatal mistake in sustaining the indie
feasible action of the Schenectady
union. The National Guard is as in
dispensable to the state as the police
force is to a city. To antagonize either
is tantamount to an admission that the
objector is opposed to law and order.
Strike violence is not the only form
of disorder that may call for the SER
vices of the militia, and for labor
unions to deny to their members the
right and duty of responding to the
call of the state is practically to array
them on the side of lawlessneSs and
anarchy.
An efficient state militia is the only
alternative to a large standing army.
Would the strikemakers like to have
the preservation of order everywhere
left to federal soldiers? This change
would be an obvious advantage in some
directions. The regulars have no SYM
pathies. They know only orders.

comes to the tariff, there always enters
the question of how much: how high

Beyond that point he fears the power of

parting of the ways that the republic

standard of Governor Cumrlins and the

NEW INSURANCE SCHEME.

Insurance schemes have been ex-
plotted In nearly every direction, pro-
yiding for all classes where hope or
success offers opportunity The lat
est comes from Kansas, and is put
forth by Rev c. NJ Sheldon, the Ia
NOUS clergyman, author of In His
Steps," and who edited daily paper
for a short time as he believed Jesus
would do it. He is at the head oil a
movement to establish at Topeka a life
insurance company that will write only
policies on the lives of Christian peo-
pie and total abstainers. All the
churches of the United States are TO
be asked to assist the organization.
Rates will be from 10 to 20 per cent
lower than in the old-line companies
that accept men who drink liquor.
1t is not on record that his great ex-
an earthly insurance company. He is
rather on record with the admonition
Take therefore no thought for the
morrow for the morrow shall take
thought for the things of itself" Not
that Christian people are thereby nee
essarily forbidden to insure their lives.
but some of his devoted followers
might question the propriety of Chris
tan leaders going into such a scheme.
Imagine such a company becoming
colossal organization, with its exclu-
sive privileges and low rates, so tempt
Ing as to induce the wording to join
the church to be insured both against
hades ,and poverty. The theory that
the good die young" will not be eNa
plotted on the expectation table, and if
such a company should get upon its
feet and thereafter fail. its collapse
would be aspribed to the devil and its
fate would again lead devotees to turn

Increasing Railway Wages.

The Railway Age emphatically con-
oemns the report that the railways of
the country generally will follow the
example of the Pennsylvania road In
increasing the pay of its employees 10
per cent. 1t points out that the Penn
sylvania, with net earnings of $4,000
per mile, is very well able to stand a
general increase in wages, as compared
with pros porous western roads such as
the Santa Fe system, which earns only
$4,000 net per mile: that the wage
standard on the roads between Chicago
and the Missouri river are already from
10 to IL per cent higher than in the
eastern territory, and the scale in the
far west is correspondingiy higher than
in the middle west: that the western
roads have long been engaged in read
justing and increasing wages, often 10
per cent or more, and that the eastern
roads have not been making any such
increase. Under the circumstances the
western railroads do not feel called on
to follow the Pennsylvania example
and make horizontal increase of 10
per cent in addition to increases al
ready made.

KID AND TOY PISTOL.

Clifford Kidd, the young son of James
Kidd. met with an accident Saturday
afternoon from the handling of one OF
those dangerous and destructive toy
pistols which are SO constructed as to
carry 22-caliber cartridge. The pistol
was the property of Frank Bryan. and
the young Kidd boy was playing with
the dangerous plaything. which was
loaded with blank cartridge. and in
some manner the thing went off and the
load entered the left hand of the young
man, causing a severe wound to that
member. The services of a physician
were necessary to dress the injury and
the danger from blood poisoning makes
the injury one of quite serious nature.
These Internal weapons should not be
tolerated in the city limits any more
than real revolver, as they accom-
plish considerably more damage.

COL. PALMER's THIRD TERM.
INT Pleasant News1


Postmaster Cunningham, of Wash
ington, was down Tuesday, and spent
the afternoon talking politics. He had
spent the forenoon at Fairfield, and
went on to Burlington. Mr.. Cunning
ham does not go round visiting much,
and when he does bob UP the boys look
askance and wonder what's doing. The
last time Mr. Cunningham was at the
Athens was some eight years ago when
he attended the congressional conven-
ton, the time Sam Clark laid 1t over
Hedge, and John Palm tipped for the
postoffice and won. Mr.. Cunningham
is a typical machine politician, no bet
ter and no worse than the rest of them,
and turns his face toward Burlington
thrice every day, to renew his allegi-
ance to his political Allah, j. w. Blythe.
Mr.. Cunningham was taking turn
over the district to estimate If possible
the exact state Of affairs relative to the
denomination of Col. Palmer for another
term as railroad commissioner. 1t has
been whispered with stage effect that
the frisky colonel will meet with good
deal of opposition in the first district
provided there is a fair chance of de-
feating him. The entire district Is
lukewarm, and in this county there is
plenty of open hostility, that would cost
him the county support. if the boys
found the game worth the powder Up
in Washington county there is a strong
personal feeling against the colonel
which may, or may not crop out.
Mr.. Cunningham was here for the
purpose Of finding out the feeling rela-
tive to Col. Palmer. He visited all the
prominent politicians. or all whose
opinions were worth having" and was
sent on to Burlington assured In the
most emphatic manner that they, who
were the men who ran things in Henry
county, would see to 1t that the col
onel was not annoyed. Unfortunately
most of the men, whom Mr. Cunning
ham conversed with have not been at
tending county conventions with any
degree Of regularity the last few years,
and it may embarass them to deliver
the goods to, the colonel
Col Palmer may be nominated.
There may be no one against him. He
may win out in a hot fight. But that
does not change the fact that there Is a
great deal of opposition to his nominal
ton. To make a long matter short ii
seems to be the opinion among the
younger class Of republicans that the
colonel has been hanging on to the good
things long enough, and it is time to let
GO and give some of the other workers
Of the party chance. The colonel is
well off financially, and has held the
commissioning five years at a salary
of $4,000 per year and expenses and
perquisites. There are good many
who would like to help some other de-
serving republican to the same place
for awhile.

THE SOCIALIST VOTE.
rDayenport Democratic


The vote of the socialists thruout the
country on the 4th of this month has
been much commented upon, and sew
eral conclusions drawn. The vote of
the socialists in this city was larger
than ever before, and this is true of
two or three other places in Iowa. It
appears from an examination that
while the socialists have been growing,
their gain has been made in spots.
When spread over the entire country
and compared with the vote cast by the
two great parties, there is nothing phe-
Eomenal in the strength shown by this
new party. 1t was in Massachusetts
that they made their best showing. In
the whole state their strength is about
$4,000, against 10,761 year ago. In
New York City the socialists polled
about $4,000 votes, gain of SO per cent
over last year. The New York World
ruts it this way: Taking the states
together the socialist vote is spread out
60 thin as to be no factor in determin-
ing any result

MILLING CANADIAN WHEAT.
Minneapolis Mill Bonded to Grind Can
adian Wheat In Transit.

ST. Paul, Nov. 22.-Today at the
United States customs house in this
city the first step towards the fulfill
ment of J. Adam Bede's prediction that
'in twenty-five years Minnesota will
have to depend on the Canadian north
west for wheat to be ground in Min
nesota mills was taken today.
The Washburn-C Crosby Milling COM
pany, Of Minneapolis, bonded It's Hum
boidt mill for an indefinite period to
grind nothing but Canadian wheat. The
bond demanded by the customs house
and given today is for $4,000. Accord
ing to the terms Of the bond the Hum
boldt mill will have continually within
it's walls government storekeepers, who
will see that only Canadian grain is
used.
The grain will be delivered in cars
direct from Canada, which will be in
charge of customs house men.
The entire product Of the mill, flour,
bran and shorts, will be loaded into
bonded cars and will be taken directly
east for shipment entire to Liverpool
The custom house rule heretofore
prevailing was to ship the grain OF the
Canadian northwest bonded thru the
United States to Liverpool. Inc srlno-
ing of the grain in Minnesota instead
of England will create great saving
in the expense Of transit to Europe.
A bond of $4,000 was also given the
customs house today by the Great East
ern Elevator company. of Minneapolis,
for the storage in elevator II, of Mime
apois, of Canadian oats. This grain
will eventually be ground into oatmeal
in this state in some mill yet to be
designated and used entirely for ex-
port business in the same manner as the
Canadian wheat handled at the Hum
boldt mill
The salaries of the customs officers
at elevator H and the Humboldt mill
will be paid by the milling and elevator
companies. Elevator II has capacity
Of 100000 bushels.

dispute that college football enjoys even
