indication that the present hatreds of the
factional Republicans will result in de-
! velopments that will shed light on the
methods Of the minority party.
One matter which will be investigated
will be the appointment OF Representative
Deidrich to a consulship.
Mr.. Smith created something of a sensa-
tion when he told the Grand Jury that he
would not accept the mileage, allowed by
law. 'T am a railroad man." he said,
and travel on passes. 1t would not be
right for me to take this money" And
he did not. He bears the distinction of
being the only Grand Jury witness who
makes no secret of his riding on a pass.
Mr.. Smith is not and never has been a
legislator.

from Jefferson City, was shown an article
in an afternoon paper in which the follow

DR.. MONTGOMERY

Workers and BY Other Possible Can

~ -
Rev. James S. Montgomery. the
popuIarpa pastor Of Wesley NJ. e. church,
is considered by certain Hennepin
county republicans to be the. man to
lead them to victory over Congress
man John Lind-if he will be a can
didate.
SO seriously has the possibility of
Dr. Montgemery's entering the con-
gressional field been considered that
the subject is apt to be discussed
Wherever active Republicans. get to-
gether. The agitation docking to
bringing him into the race has
reached that&stag where other.possi-
bilitiess are becoming anxious to learn
his intentions, and he is having re-
peated calls from republicans who
want him to declare himself.
While DR.. Montgomery had given
his. entire attention to matters CON
nected with his ministry in Mime
apolis, he is from Indiana where every
male child is a born politician. While
a pastor in Toledo, Ohio, DR.. Mont
gomery was twice chaplain of the
as closely in touch with matters polit-
ical as any. member of the Minneapolis
ministry.
In the eyes4-of, those republicans
who are endeakoring to have DR.
Montgomery try for the congression
nomination he would be a particularly
strong candidate because of his per-
sonality, professional standing, and
Oratorical powers.
Up to this time DR.. Montgomery has
not made any statement in reference
to- his attitude toward the offers OF
support rendered him.

JUDGE COLLINS CALLS
HIS VISIT TO THE HENNEPIN
COURTHOUSE TO-DAY CAUSES
A LARGE SIZED CONNECTION.

Judge l.. w. Collins of the state SUI
preme bench, and over whose pros
pective successor there is SO much po-
litical stir locally, visited the Henne-
pin courthouse this morning. His
presence created a stir and many sur
misses were made as to the cause
thereof.
When asked how soon he intended
to step down and out, Judge Collins
smiled mysteriOusly and said: - We'll,
I am waiting until certain persons do
certain things. zS.. l guess they will do
them, because men usually do things
they must. ThenI will resign This
statement is interpreted by some of
Judge Elliott's Supporters as meaning
that Judge Collins will have netting
to do with the appointment and if SO
they feel confident as to Where the
lightning will strike:
A petition is now being prepared
among members of the Hennepin
County bar in favor: Of the promotion
of this county's senior Judge and al
READY a great many signatures have
been secured. The petition will be
forwarded to the governor imnle-
diately.
Judge Simpsons supporters, on the
other hand, have been very busy and
feel confident. One Of them said to-
day:
The thing looks as tho Hennepin
county was going to be thrown down
again thru a apolitical deal. If the
appointment comes, however, we are
confident that Judge Simpson is the
man. -

pet company. Mr.. Farwell said to-day
at the Minneapolis club:
I There was a time when it was
deemed necessary for a drummer to
treat to liquor and cigars and to play
| cards. This is all changed. A firm
will not hire a man who is devoted to
these. The Gideons, is an organiZa-
ton of evangelical Christian travelling
men. They are organized to help each
other and to help those travelling men
who are not Christians to become
such; so in sense the organization is
evangelistic. 1 have been with them
in New York, in Chicago and now in

Mr.. sAVAGE'S POSITION
OWNER OF INTERNATIONAL .AU-
DTTORIUM STATES HIS STAND
AS TO EAST SIDE PARK.

In an interview to-day NJ. w. Saw
age sets himself right on the East
Side park question. In the. public
mind the Savage park in front of the
International building seems to have
been COMPOUNDED or joined with the
proposition taken up later by public
spirited citizens across the river. To
this Mr.. Savage has contributed, but
he is not back of the movement. Mr..
Savage says:
I notice in a morning paper that
some people evidently think that I
am moving spirit in the purchase
of the two blocks between my build
ing, the East high school and Cen
trail avenue.
.'Such a conception is entirely
wrong, as | had absolutely nothing to
do with starting the movement and
l have not given it any personal at
tention, since it was started except to
donate $500 last fall, with the under
standing from the committee that if
would give them this $500 they
could secure few hundred more that
was being held for East Side improve
ments. The statement was made at
that time that with this amount they
expected to be able to make such a
showing that they could probably Sc
cure the park without having the
abutting property pay for it.
L am opposed to securing this park.
or any other, except on a. plan Of gen
eral taxation. IT any park is for the
benefit of the city, then the city should
1 pay for it.
/ qgf"If it isgnot benefit to the city, then
we certainly do not need it.
!. ~. There is no question but that parks
/ are of a great advantage to any city
and unless provided for now, will have
4 to be secured at an immense cost al
some future time. Our parks. as i'm.
proved, are enjoyed by people from al
! parts of the city, and every resident
should be willing to pay his share fol-
what is benefit for the general good
The only proposition I ever made
was that I would improve and main;
! tain a park in front of my buildins
and keep it open for the public, pro;
!: viding the city took enough interest ii
! the matter to remove certain resort.
1 on Main street:
s'Tfe two blocks under considera.
ton at the present time as the Eas
Side park, would not join this proper
i ty, and is an entirely different mat
4 ter, and 1 have not had any part il

with an entirely different understand
! ing of the matter than is now beins

PURSEIAKERS
BEFORE COURT
YOUNG MILLER BREAKS DOWN
AND MAKES CONFESSION.
Allen Miller and Thomas Allan Be-
lieved to Be Responsible for Many

fer with the boys father first. #
Allan, who was on probation for
taking a purse from Miss Olund, on
First avenue S, Wednesday; night, was
sent to the state school for that Of
Tense without a hearing on the other
cases in which the Miller boy said
he assisted.
The two boys were locked UP by
Detectives Helm and Hanson, who
have been working on. the purse
snatching cases for some time. When
they We're placed in the cells the
Miller boy broke down and confessed
TO- having been implicated in sixteen
robberies. He also implicated Thomas
Allan, who was caught when he at
tempted to take a purse from Miss
Olund. The police think that with
the conviction Of these boys and a
confederate who is being closely

CANNOT SHARE
In STATE FUNDS
NAVAL RESERVE NOT PART OF
NATIONAL GUARD.
Duluth Organization Would Be Off
cial, but Under Present Law Could
Not Receive Any of the National
Guard Appropriation, Says the At
torney Generals Department.

Duluth's naval reserve. when mus
tered in, will be a part of the mill
tary forces of the state but not a part
of the national guard. It will not be
entitled to share in the states appro-
priation for maintenance of the guard.
This is the ruling made by w. J..
Donahower, assistant attorney gem
eral, to Adjutant General Libby, who
referred the proposition to him. There
was an act passed in 1899 authorizing
the governor to muster in not more
than eight companies of naval reserve,
but this act did not provide for any
state aid. The national guard code
passed last winter enumerates the
organizations that shall comprise the
guard, and does not include the naval
reserve. AS the state appropriation
is made for maintenance Of the ma
tional guard, none of it can be di-
Verted to this naval reserve.
Duluth citizens are ready to equip
the reserves, but they do not care to
pay the expense Of maintaining the
organization.
