White Bear Lake Crying for Help.

To the Editor of The Globe.
The compassionate interest which
our St. Paul papers, our Minnesota
legislature and our county commits
sioners have taken in White Bear Lake
comes not a moment too soon, and if
that beautiful water sheet, the pride
of the st. PaUlite, is to be preserved
something must be done. Something
but what? Surveys by competent
engineers have. been~,made from time
to time within the last, five or six years
and paid for by the White Bear Lake
Improvement association, and by the
county commissioners, and the remedy
proposed is arteSian,, wells. But all
the hopes connected Herewith have
had an emphatic eff attached to them,
namely, if you find water in sufficient
volume to benefit the lake.
Now the sure and sufficient way to
fill up that lake is by pumping sta
ton, conveniently situated near the
ST. Croix or Mississippi rivers and a
sufficiently large conduit to carry
enough water into White Bear lake
This is possible and can be done. The
expense will amply repay itself and
can be placed on those benefited by
the assessor, and in case the city ever
uses the overflow as an additional
supply for itself, the money can be
returned to those who We're assessed.

HIGH ONES OF EARTH
PRAISE JOHN WESLEY
Celebrations al New England
and at WesIey's Georgia
Home.

BOSTON, Mass. June pa two
day celebration of the 200th anniver-
sary of the birth of John Wesley by
the Methodists of the New England
conference began today. The confer
ence committee brought together rep
resentatives of the three branches Of.
the Methodist church in North Amer
ica-Bishop Charles H. Fowler, of
Buffalo. of the North; Bishop Eugene
r. Bendrix, Of Kansas City, from the
South. and Rev. A. Carman. from
Canada, were among the leading
speakers. Among the tributes to Wes-
ley read were the following:
President Roosevelt-The Methodist
church has reached its fullest develop
ment in our country. and it is eminent
ly fitting that we should celebrate
Wesley's birth. 1t would be difficult to
overestimate the debt which this
country owes to Methodism, especially
to those hardy pioneers preachers who
accompanied the rest of the pioneer
folk in their westward march across
the continent.
Leslie M. Shawl would be difficult
to find a name in human history which
stands for more that is essential in
american history than that of Wesley
He was not a reformer in the popu-
lar acceptance of the term. though he
set IN motion influences that not only
reformed the church with which he
was connected, but all other churches
and society generally.
Grover Clexeland-It is exceedingly
hitting that among a Christian people
the 20Oth anniversary of the birth Of
John Wesley should be celebrated.
Such a celebration will reach its high
est usefulness if it effectively recalls
to all those who preach religion in
this day and generation the sublime
sincerity. the unf1agging zeal and the
aggressive advocacy which John Yves
ley cheerfuliy gave to the religion he.
preached 150 years ago.
SAVANNAH. Ga. June 29-The BIZ

John wesley was concluded today with

j. Adam Wants Wheat Tariff Removed

J. Adam Bede has been unbosoming his
hopes and fears to the Washington CORE
Spondents Of the Chicago Chronicle in
this wise:
Last year the Canadian Northwest
produced 66,000,000 bushels of the best
wheat in the world This is only a be-
ginning and will soon be doubled. then
qnadrupled, for one can travel 1000 miles
northwest from Duluth and still be in a
natural zone. which is soon to be de-
vveloped.. This sounds like a fairy tale.
put II there was one wheat field stretch
ing from Washington to Duluth it would
not be. so great as the possibilities of the
canadian wheat fields. The natural mar
ket for this wheat is Liverpool and the
natural outlet for it is through Mime
sofa. Our railroads would like to carry il.
our mills grind it and our ships bear ii
to the markets of the world. It is to the
interest of the Canadian wheat raiser
that we afford him this competition. If
We remove our tariff Of 25 cents a bushel
on wheat Canada would not impose an
export duty as she does on logs, but
would leave it free in the interest of her
own farmers The Canadian railroads are
now striving to hold all this CARRYING
trade and the real contest will be among
the transportation lines"

BULGARIAN LOOKS FOR
WAR WITH TURKEY
Premier Says Latter Would Extermin-
ate BuIgarians in Macedonia.

LONDON, June 3O.-The Belgrade
correspondent of the Times says NJ
Petroff. the Bulgarian premier has
given an interview in which he de-
clared that the sultan of Turkey and
the Bulgarian government were both
opposed to war, but the situation was
worse than at any time since the de-
livery of the Turkish note last spring.
Though most of the prisoners at Sa-
lonica had been released, 400 fresh ar
rests have been made and 5000 refu-
gees have arrived at Adrianople.
The aim of the Turks, the premier is
reported as saying, is the deliberate
determination of the Bulgarians in
Macedonia by methods scarcely short
of massacre, and the high officials in
Turkey are promoting the war move
ment.
NJ. Petroff anticipates a war and ex-
presses contempt for the Turkish army,
which, he says, cannot mobilize inside
of two months, whereas Bulgaria can
mobilize an army Of 250,000 we'll armed
men very quickly. 1t is possible, he
thinks, that the sultan, in order to
avert war, may make concessions,
but unless he does so a catastrophe is
imminent.

A BUMPER CROP.

When a systematic and thoroughly or
canned movement, begun in 1868 ia
working with malicious and malignant
energy to utterly destroy the civil and
political rights of those for whom we
stand in some part as spokesman.
We resent the reiterated statement
that this is a white mans country It
was MADE in its inception and develop
ment by all of its people, Irrespective
OF race, and the federal constitution
specifically places ali of its citizens on
equality before the law.
The persistent effort which has been
MADE and is making to nullify the suf-
1rage guarantee Of the fourteenth and
nfteenth amendments to the federal
constitution is fraught with as much
danger to the peace and security of the
federal union as was the effort to hitch
slavery upon the constitution Of the
country prior to 1860. We again direct
attention to the effect produced by the
license of the mob spirit. We do this
not because We are the victims in most
