THE HARVEST TIME.

He felt that the harvest time was come
to garner in the fruits of so much plant
ing and culture, and he was determined
that nothing he might do or say should
be liable to the reproach Of a personal in
terest. Let us say frankly he was party
man. He believed the policies advocated
by him and his friends counted for much
in the country's progress and prosperity.
He hoped in his second term to accom-
plish substantial results in the develop
ment and affirmation OF those policies. /
spent a day with him shortly before he
started on his fateful journey TO Buffalo.
Never had i seen him higher In hope and
patriotic confidence. He was as sure Of
the future OF his country as the psalmist
who cried. "Glorious things are spoken of
thee, thou city of God" He was gratified
to the heart that We had arranged a
treaty which gave us a free hand in the
isthmus. In fancy he saw the canal al
ready built and the argosies of the world
passing through 1t In peace and amty.
He saw In the immense evolution of
American trade the fulnllment of all his
dreams, the reward OF all his labors. He
was, 1 need not say, an ardent protec-
zionist, never more sincere and devoted
than during those last days Of his life.
He regarded reciprocity as the bulwark
OF protection, not breach. but a fulfill
ment of the law The treaties which for
four years had been preparing under his
personal supervision he regarded as aneil-
larry to the general scheme. lie was op-
posed TO any revolutionary plan of change
IN the exis;i5g legislation. ~ was care

now is preliminary to an attempted
union of forces and the nomination of
a man who can reasonably be expect
ed to make a good, stiff fight after the
primaries. @sa
Representative E. A. Whitford, of
Dakota county is the man picked by
the conservative element to land the
nomination and build new Third dis
trict machine, as it is generally con-
coded that the Heatwole following can
not be delivered intact to anyone.
Capt. Reed, of Glencoe, has filed, but
his candidacy is not considered seri-
ously by the political stalwarts. Their
troubles lie in the direction of keeping
the bars up against a big field Of can
didates, sending Whitford for the nom
ination without other opposition than
that put up by Reed.
Frank Wilson, of Goodhue, and
County Attorney Morrison, of Carver,
are both backing up to the congress
sional crib with evident intent to make
dashes for the corn. They must be
lassooed and soothed and Tams
is coming home to perform as the
broncho buster and pacif1cator in gen.
eral. Whitford's friends believe the
Goodhue county situation will readily
lend itself to the Strengthening out
process and that within a week or ten
days their man will be formally in the
field for the nomination.

WASHED INTO STREAM
BY A STEAMERS SWELL
Frank Wopatek, Twelve Years of Age,
Drowned in the Mississippi
River.

Frank Wopatek, twelve years old,
residing with his parents at 1853 But
ternut avenue, was drowned in the
river, near Banholzer's brewery yes
terday afternoon shortly before 8
o'clock. The boy, accompanied by a
younger brother, was down to the river
padding" as neither one of them
could swim. Frank was lying on the
bank close to the edge Of the water
when a steamboat passed which raised
a swell, driving the water farther up
shore. The receeding wave took the
boy out into the stream.
The younger brother, who was sit
ting on the bank short distance
away, was the only eye witness to the
drowning and he is too young to be
able to tell very clear story. He says
that the wave from the steamboat took
his brother out and that he sank at
once without uttering cry. The boys
father, Frank Wopatek discharged
several sticks of dynamite in the vicin-
ity of where the boy drowned in the
hope that the body would rise to the
surface, but his efforts were useless.
Men in boats dragged the river with
graphing hooks, but to no purpose.
There were several boys in the river
at the time Wopatek was drowned, but
all being swimmers they were out in
the river and never missed their COM
rade until his brother called their at
tention to the fact that he was missing.

HOW BAKER WAS KILLED
YOUNG MAN ATTEMPTED TO
CONClLIATE HIS FATHER
Found Him Drunk and Asleep in Nor
row Village and Drove Him Home
Parent Became Angry When He
Found Family Was About to Leave
the House.

Police Secretary Joseph Mounts yes
terday received full details of the kill
ing of Edgar Baker by his father at
Morrow, Ohio, which occurred Tues
day evening. 1t appears that the faith
er of the murdered boy had been to
the village of Morrow to purchase a
load of wood. His son drove to the
village in the afternoon and was re-
turning home when he saw his fathers
team pulled to the road side, and his
father asleep on the load.
Young Baker got out of his buggy
and had his companion take the horse
to the home of his uncle, where young
Baker was stopping. The mother of
the dead boy was visiting with her
sister and when the news of her hus-
bands condition reached her, she de-
cided not to go home, as the elder
Baker was quarrelsome when drinking.
Young Baker drove the team home
with his father still asleep on the load
of wood The young man attended to
all the work about the barn and re-
turned to the house where he left his
father. An aunt of the young man
had arrived In the meantime to get
supper for them, and after the house
work had been finished young Baker
and his aunt decided to leave the old
man at his house until he had sobered
UP.
Father Became -Unruly.
