THE POsTOFFICE SENSATIONS.

L
The most sensational episode of the
investigation of Postofilce Department at
fairs occurred just before the department
closed yesterday, when Postmaster Gene
raj Payne announced the summary dis
missal of James w. Tyner, assistant at
torney general of the Postoflice Depart
ment, coupling with the announcement
the startling charge that all the papers
and records in the safe of the latter S office
had been distracted by Mrs. Tyner, wife
of the discharged official, with the as
sistance of others. The Postmaster Gen
eral states that Mrs. Tyner has refused
the demand of the government for the
return of the papers taken, and said the
circumstances in the case will be submit
ted by him to the Department of Justice
this morning. Other sensational devel-
opments are expected to follow. The
aues ton of arrests is now under cOnsid-
Grafton and will bepassed on immediate
ly by Attorney General Knox.
Mrs. Tyner went to the office of the
assistant attorney general, on the fifth
floor of the postoffice building, at 3:45
o. clock Tuesday and remained there an
hour. When she arrived acting Assis-
tant Attorney General Christiancy, who
has had charge of the Office for months
past in the absence of General Tyner,
who has been in poor health for along
period, was in the office. The clerks
we're at their desks. Mrs. Tyner passed
from the public room into she private
Office and closed the doors behind her.
Being then alone in the Office she step
ped to the door opening into the public
corridor and, by previous arrangement,
admitted Mrs Barrett, mother Of Har-
-ison J. Barrett, the former law clerk
Of the Postoffice Department, and q. q.
Hammer, a safe expert.
Mr.. Christiancy reported the presence
in the Office of Mrs. Tyner to two in
spectors, who we're investigating affairs
connected with the office and also per-
sonally communicated the fact of Mrs.
Tyner's appearance in the office to Post
master General Payne. The inspectors
reported the matter to their superior
officer, Fourth Assistant Postmaster Gem
eral BristOw.
Mr.. Bristow asked authority to have
Mrs. Tyner elected from the office.
The authority came too late. When
the inspector returned Mrs. Tyner had
left. The safe, on being examined, was
found to be empty. The affair created
much excitemant among the investigat-
ing officials, but the news was con-
cealed carefully from the public. Mrs.
Tyner positively refuses to give up the
| papers.

A FRIGHTFUL DEATH
The Wife Of q Marshall County Farmtr
Burns With his Dwelling

A most shocking tragedy occurred
last Sunday evening at the farm Of
John Slatengren in Marshall county
about eight miles east of Claremont.
N rs. Slatengren was preparing Sup
per. Her husband was absent, hav-
ing gone to the place of Lewis john
son to Riverside township. The baby
was asleep in a cab in a room adjoining
the Kitchen. The three other child
rem were playing outside. The ar
tesian well rig of Dinsmore & Terry
was at the place having just Gem
pleted well. The well crew were in
or around a cook car, but not SO sit
uated that the house opened toward
them. Suddenly some one, discovered
/ biIe Houst 10 be on fire, and iInnled-
lately Mrs. Slatengren rushed out
doors, her whole body enveloped in
fame. She turned, even inner frenzy
remembering the baby, and sprung
back into the house followed by two
men who had just come up. They
seized bed clothes to throw over her
and smother the flames, but the bed
clothing was also ON fire. They were
compelled to get out leaving the burn
ing woman but saving the baby which
was burned quite severely,
Two explosions had been heard in
quick succession just before the fire
was discovered. 1t is supposed that
oil or gasoline being used to hurry the
! fire caused the explosion and spread
tisl al over the house il sc brief
a space Of time.
The house wasa good building nicely
furnished, and the family altogether
happily situated, when this terrible
calamity, with the suddeness of a
thunderbolt, fell on this home. The
most pathetic thing of all was the
Fl fra iitiicc efforts OF the children to rush
into the burning house, crying for
their mother. The men had to seize
them and hold them by main strength
from seeking their mother in the
flames.
Mrs. Slatengren was the daughter
Of Jonas Holt, one OF the two old SETTLERS
whose double funeral occurred affew
months ago at the Swedish burying
] grS;nd. She had been to his grave
wittthe whole family just the day
before strewing it with flowers.
It was not until the following morn.
ing that the remains could be recover
ed from the debris. The charred trunk
was found at the bottom of the cellar.
The funeral took place at. 2 O'Clock
Tuesday afternoon.
sl Mr. Slatengren was the secretary
of the Evangelical Mutual Insurance
Couapany, and it is supposed the books
we've burned as nothing could bt
saved.

RECIPROCITY A rlsNoTER.

buck Times, is another of the
country editors, of the state
who has ideas enough of his
own so that he has not fallen
in with the Reciprocity League
in an attempt to get free Cana
dian wheat to compete with
our wheat. In his last issue,
he makes very good point as
to how the League is trying to
gain public favor by using the
popular term reciprocity,
Morris tribune. [volume] (Morris, Minn.) 1880-2000, 1903-10-17

when it is free trade they are
after. He says;
"Why don't the advocates of
"Reciprocity with Canada"
come out into the open and de-
clare their real meaning? Why
don't they call it by it's right
name and not resort to mis-
leading phrase? Reciprocity
with Canada means simply free
trade with Canada for the reas-
on that the products of both
countries are exactly alike and
therefore competitive products.
Reciprocity as we understand
it is an arrangement between
our own nation and another by
which we agree to admit, free
of duty, certain articles which
we need, but which we cannot
produce here; and in return the
other nation admits to it's ports
free of duty, certain articles
which they need, but cannot
produce in their own land.
For instance we have a reci-
procity treaty with Brazil
whereby we receive their coffee
and they receive our flour and
machinery, which are non com
petitive products, But in the
case of Canada reciprocity is
impossible because both coun-
tries produce and want to send
abroad the same products. It
appears to us therefore, that
the Minnesota Reciprocity
League simply demands free.
trade with Canada, and are not
acting fairly by making use of
a phrase that is misleading
and tends to confuse"

bringing back to the republican

less a Journalistic light than
Frank Day, of the Fairmont

strayed away from the party,
has signified his intention to
give his support to Mr.. Eddy's
candidacy for governor if he
eddy remains true to the doc
trines and principals set forth

The Times this week wants
to know" what we mean when
we mention "the crowd who
are always looking for some
thing" Well, there is a polit-
ical campaign coming on, and
there will be plenty of time
then to explain the phrase if
certain indications materialize.
Should we go into the matter
now, it might be necessary to
tell the Times how Ger tain
members Of it's own party have
not always confined their activ-
ity to watching the procession
go by.
But the same spirit which
has been working in politics is
also apparent in many other
activities of the town, and it is
not necessary to use spy glass
to find business men here who
confne their patronage to those
who actively engage in promot-
ing their interests, and keep
their interests in mind even to
the exclusion of the interests Of
the town as a whole.

Eddy, as the only announced
candidate for governor, is a fav-
orite newspaper target, and
both republicans and demo
Gratis are enjoying themselves
at his expense. The Duluth
Herald says:
"Mr. Eddy has encountered a
setback by mourning the sup
port of the st. Paul Dispatch.
This may prove a more serious
handicap than his lack of beau
ty. The Dispatch has hereto
fore been warm supporter of
Governor Van SAINTS ambition
to get a third term, but the
governor has incurred it's dis
pleasure by asserting, as a
member of the equalization
board, to a large increase in the
taxable valuation of the Twin
City Rapid Transit company
and other street railway fran
chises owned by Mr.. Lowry.
Now the Dispatch pronounces
the governor politically dead
and proceeds to sound the
praises of Frank NJ. Eddy. IF
Mr.. Eddy can overcome the at
tack Of the Pioneer Press on
his pulchritude and the Dis
patch's support of his princi
pies, his boom may survive the
cold blasts Of the approaching
winter"

MORE RECIPROCITY TALK.

Dealers Association on reci-
procity with Canada, (who of
course~favored it as tending to
increase their business) the
Minneapolis Journal says:
Strange, as it may seem,
there is still some prejudice in
the northwest, principally
among the northwestern farm
ers, against any readjustment of
our tariff relations with Cana
da, which would let in Canadi-
an wheat free. There are those
among the grain growers who
look at the 25-cent tariff against
Canadian wheat and conclude
that if Canadian wheat were
admitted to the United States
free of duty the American
| product would be reduced in
price just that much. It takes
| a good deal of educating to get
people who are guided by their
prejudices, and who are always
apprehensive of any tariff
changes, to understand that
possibly the tariff on wheat is
after all no protection against
the competition of the Canadi-
an product. They are apt to
forget that the United States
produces more wheat than it
consumes; chat it finds a mar
ket for it's surplus in Europe;
that the price of the surplus
determines the price of the
whole product and that the
surplus completes with the
product of Canada and of other
countries in the Liverpool mar
ket just the same whether
there be free trade between
the United States and Canada
or not. No country is selling
us wheat, but other countries
are selling wheat in competi-
ton with us to still others who
are consumers, and against
that our tariff is no protection
The Minneapolis Journal
must think that the Northwest
ern farmers are lot of chumps
to think that the Canadian tar
iH protects their wheat to the
extent of twenty-five cents
bushel. They are we'll aware
of the fact that it does not pro-
tect them more than a few
cents, but it is these few cents
they are after.
The tariff controls the Mime
.apolismarket much as does a
Touring mill control the market
in small town. If there
is no mill the elevators
control the market ex-
I.clusively, and pay, the pric-
es that are made on change,
but let mill be built in
town, and it will now and again
pay more than the elevators
will in order to divert the
wheat from the elevators to
their own bins, where it is
needed to keep their rollers go
ing. In such a case, the local
market is protected by the cost
of bringing in wheat from out
side points.
In muCn the same way, the
| tariff protects the Northwest
fern3 farmer. 1t keeps out Can
| adian wheat, and limits the
| supply to about twice what the
| mills are able to. handle. But
this supply is not evenly dis
| tributed, and now and again
the mills are willing to pay
higher prices than Liverpool in
order to divert trade from ex-
port channels to their own bins
where it is needed to keep
their mills going. But this
difference means much in the
aggregate to the farmers of the

The seventh district comes
in for a good share of the polit-
ica1 discussion lately. Follow
ing are a couple of items Of To-
cal interest from Saturdays
Minneapolis Journal:
A delegation from Glenwood
was in St. Paul yesterday It
consisted of Frank NJ. Eddy,
former Senator C. p. Reeves,
Representative Thomas T. OFFS
thun and Mayor Thomas Gala
han. The delegation divided
it's energies between labor for
the new fish hatchery and
booming Eddy for governor.
They presented a new PROPOSE
ton for a site at a reasonable
figure, and are codfident that
it will be acceptable to the
game and fish commission.
On the Frank Eddy PROPOSE
ton the delegation expressed
confidence that the seventh
district would stand by the
candidate for governor. They
say that Eddy men have no
quarrel with Judge Brown or
with Ed Young, but it is evil
dent that there will be sharp
contest between Young and
Eddy for control of the district.
Both will be friendly to Judge
Brown, who is conceded the
slid support of the seventh.

The Iron Men leave for Montgomery today where they will play three games. From there they will go to Atlanta and Nashville and then come home for a series of eighteen games. These will be the last games played in Birmingham this season and will practically decide Birmingham 8 chances for finishing well up in the race.
 With the absence of Miller. who skipped and Jack Keenan, who has been released, the team Is pretty badly crippled for long journey, but the players say they will make the best of it. When Smitty Is pitching Campbell will play right field and Kanzler will go to third Brown play Ing left throughout the trip.
 It Is understood the management Is after another fielder whom they expect to secure from Kansas City. Manager o'Brien sent Hugh Hill to Dale Geer yes terday and as the Kansas City manager Is a personal friend of Tom O'Brien he will probably let him have one of his men to finish out the season.
