STICKS TO WORKHOUSE
-,sE
Woman Victim Of Drink Refuses OPP
portunity to Leave.

II would rather be in the workhouse
than to go with that woman sobbed
Lizzie Fairfax, q well known character,
when brought into court Saturday and
told that the court was willing to suspend
the remainder Of her ninety day sentence
upon the recommendation of a woman
who wanted to befriend her. Judge Dick
inson allowed her to remain at the work
house.
incidentally the Fairfax woman's case
shows the success of the method of
handling prisoners employed by Frank
Mcdonald superintendent Of the work.
house. Since taking charge of matters
there Mr.. Mcdonald has ordered that all
prisoners be treated with kindness and
consideration and the plan Is working
successfully. The Fairfax woman was put
at work in McDonald's kitchen and the
kind treatment has so touched her cal
loused nature that she does not want to
leave. She says she can see glimmer
of hope that she may overcome her crav
ing for intoxicants and reform and she
does not want that hope blasted by be-
ing taken from the workhouse now. She
is an old offender and has served more
time in the Minneapolis workhouse than
any other woman. She has an appetite
for strong drink which she cannot curb
and has been arrested frequently.

W Ant TO COME IN

Recent Criticism on Their Immunity
From Law Prompts the
Course Taken.

Private bankers Of Minnesota are be-
ginning to think seriously Of coming in.
under the state laws and getting the
benefit of the greater confidence state
banks enjoy The, recent failure Of sew
eral private banks and the criticisms that
followed are responsible for the changed
feeling.
Formerly there were two private banks
at Montgomery, MINI. One, the Farmers

erd, failed disastrously. The other has
now incorporated as the First State Bank
Of Montgomery, with $4,000 capital. John
Sheehy is president Several other private
institutions are about to incorporate.
Private banks have an advantage in
greater latitude Of operation and a low
taxable valuation. but bankers as we'll as

POTATO ROT NOT GENERAL
Crop Will Be Large Enough to Meet
Demands. Saws S. II. Hall.

S. H. Hail. the Minneapolis potato man.
takes q more conservative view Of the
potato situation than is shown in the last
weekly crop report Of the Northern Pa
cif1c that potatoes are rotting. Mr.. Hall
has just returned from the fields and says
not enough digging has been done yet to
show how much rot has occurred.
It is generally known that there Is some
blight and that in the clay lands and low
lands which are not well fitted for po-
tatoes, and which are not 50 heavily
planted, some rot Is shown, but this is
not believed to be general, In fact, Mr..
Hall says that the general crop Of the
country will be sufficient to take care
of all demands, but prices will probably
run 10 cents a bushel or more higher.

IN his new field, Mr.. Hardin will be
affiliated with the Southern Presbyterian
chruch, but he announced yesterday that
all his efforts would be bent toward bring
ing about a union Of the two great
branches. which the southern body has
refused to consider. He is a Kentuckian
py birth and training, and well fitted to
deal with southern people and problems,
ana TOT that reason has chosen to leave
Minneapolis for the south land.
Question OF Union.
You have been very kind to me and I
nave learned to love the people of this
congregation he said yesterday. "The
only wound will carry with me from
here will be the one caused by parting.
Various reasons have entered into my de-

am at home among northern people, I
believe ! have a larger field for work
down there. I shall use my voice and
my pen at all times to urge a closer union
between the north and the south There
IS no reason why there should not be a
most fraternal feeling between the
younger generations, and I shall do all
can to promote it. shall work for the
union OF the Presbyterian churches, for
Delleve that, as a united church, we can
be far greater power for good every-
where.
To Study the Race Problem.
I also want to study that greatest of
our questions, the negro problem. That
problem is not solved; it is not even be-
Ing solved. The schools for freedmen
supported by generous people both south
ana north are doing great good among
a limited number, but the millions who
form the mass of the negro population are
sinking lower and lower into degradation.
Something must be done. You cannot
blame the southern people for their feel
ing, and 1t would hasten the end Of Sec
tlonal1sm If northern people would cease
their harsh and unthinking criticism of
the southern whites and their attitude
toward the negro. People Of the north
would look at the question little differ
emily II they could not leave their wives
and daughters alone at home without
dread and misgiving. The southern peo-
pie are graphing with great problem
and they are doing the best they can
with 1t. It presents a great field for work
and am going there to contribute my
