Madison, Wis, Jan. 15.-The Uni
versity of Wisconsin basketball team
will not entertain the University Of
Minnesota team this month according
to schedule, but will try to brace up
and take trip to Chicago In March.
The gopher team was dated to come
to Madison for game Jan. 20 and it
was hoped that Wisconsin could inn
prove enough to defeat the Minnesota
people, thus making up for the defeat
the badgers suffered at Minneapolis
a year ago.
The reason for canceling the Mime
sofa game is the feeling that sure de-
feat would result from contest with
the gophers. 1t is given out that Cap
tain Schofield of the badger team is
TOO sick to play and that interest in
basketball has slumped at Madison.
A trip to Chicago is planned for the
middle of March. A game with the

March 10, one with Wheaton college

Larry Summerfieid's Band Try
to Fleece a Detective in
New York

NEW YORK, July 22.-Nearly all the
members of Larry Summerfieid's band
of "sure thing gamblers were arrested
today while trying to get 5000 from a
detective sergeant who represented him
self as anxious to make a winning by re-
ceiving inside information of the winners
at the Brighton track before the news
reached the poolrooms.
Eleven prisoners were captured in a
room said by the police to have been
hired for the purpose of fleeing the de-
tective. 1t was filed up with a dozen
telephones and telegraph instrument
which were torn out and taken to police
headquarters. Summerfield met the de-
teetive in his Office in Broadway, where
he conducted a distributing bureau Of
winning horses and sent him to the room
where the arrests were made.
Summerfield escaped but the police ex-
peet to get him in few days. He is out
on $4,000 bail now. Three of his as
sociates, John Thompson, William Null
doom and Gig Strosneider. were among
those arrested. Their pictures are in the
rogues' gallery. The other prisoners are
John Callahan. George Ferguson. William
Hennessey, George Thompson. Claude
Proctor George Boyee, John SInitE and
Joseph Ward.

racy along those lines. though unwise
and Impossible as we. believe, it is his
privilege. 1t is not his privilege, and
it is not fair play to attempt to mingie
and confuse these personal visions of
the distant future with an actual, pres
ent, practical campaign in which the
fortunes of the party are at stake.
For these reasons, because the great
leaders of Democracy achieved har-
mony at st. Louis and made that the
keynote of this campaign, we believe
it to be the duty of every Democrat to
see that this harmony is not impaired.
The party is greater than any man.
If he do not submit TO it let him bear
the blame, whether his name be Cleve-
land, or Bryan, or what not This we
believe to be the sentiment of the great
Democratic body. Therefore all dis
eussien of outside issues and personal
tiles we shall consider closed.

COUNTY TAX BOARDS
RAISE ASSESSMENTS
Ten South Dakota Counties Return
Valuations $3.50, 900 Higher Than 1908
Special to The Globe

Special to The Globe
PIERRE, S. D., July 22.-The re-
turns are coming to the state auditor
for the use Of the state board of equal
iZation, and those which have come in
show that, while in some cases the
work of the state board in increasing
valuations returned has been taken to
heart and the valuations increased to
a point somewhat nearer actual VAL
ues, in others the county boards have
cut values a little lower, under prob
able theory that in raising by percent
ages the state board will not get them
as high as it did last year.
Generally, though, the valuations are
increased in total from last years re-
turns, and the first ten counties to
make returns show that they found
an increase of $650,000 over what was
dug up last year, but at the same time
they were more than 81 100000 under
what the same counties were left by
the state board last year, after it had
completed it's work.
Stoekmen say that cattle are fat
enough to ship, and that they expect
ed to begin shipping a few to market
within a week or ten days, but as long
as the packing house strike lasts they
will make no move in that direction.
They consider the chances more ia
vofable for putting in their cattle at
a loss than a profit, and will make no
move until there is some settlement of
the strike.

AGAIN TIE STRIKE

The public will be bitterly disap-
PORTED and incensed by the renewal
of the strike Of packing house en-
ployes At the very moment of going
back to work the men were ordered out
again; and unless an immediate un-
derstanding can be reached the situa
ton will be worse than ever.
1t is, of course, totally impossible to
fix the responsibility and assign the
blame for this fasco. The packers
claim that they made places for all
they could and were preparing to place
all the men as quickly as possible.
The men claim that discrimination was
exercised in the selection of those who
were to be taken back Immediately,
and that leaders in the union move
ment were punished. 1t is all a ques-
ton Of good faith.
There will be a short and sharp
judgment this time as soon as it shall
appear who is ehargeable with this
ment already submitted to, there would
seem to be no need for prolonging a
situation intolerable to the public. It
is for the best interests of both en-
ployers and men that this new strike
be brought to the speediest possible
termination, before public patience al
together fails.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
A Minneapolis Newspaper Talks Tur-
key to DisgruntIed Contemporaries
minneapolis Tribu

hInISapO1lS Tribune
2 It is we'll known that a respectable
number of personally respectable Re-
publicans in Minneapolis desire to de-
feat the Republican candidate for gov
ernor. That is a purpose which other
Republicans may not approve. but
which none has the right to condemn,
if it is carried out in open and hon.
orable ways. Any citizen has the right
to express his disapproval of his par
tvs nominations by opposing the NOM
inees at the polls This right has been
oftener exercised by Republicans than
by Democrats. 1t casts no reflection
on the bOlter as citizen and affects
his party standing rather less than the
same act by Democrat. There is no
reason on earth why Minneapolis Re-
publicans should not vote against Dunn
if they want to, just as the same per-
sons voted against Fletcher two years
ago.
But if these gentry will accept adj
vice from a source personally friendly
to many of them, though not in SYM
pathy with their present purpose We
would suggest that the way to bolt is
to bolt. We are hearing all kinds of
stories, mainly from the newspaper or
gan of the boilers, of indirect and
therefore feeble efforts to injure the
Republican candidate for governor
without sacrificing party standing and
share in the party loot and patronage
by frank and open opposition.
One day they want Van SAINT to run
independent; another day they want to
dictate the Democratic candidate; then
they project mon partisan" judicial
ticket; again they dream of some i'm
possible coalition or other. We don't
think this is the way to get political
results, though it may bring best
financial results to newspaper that
desires to multiply candidates and
raise false hopes in order to increase
it's revenue from campaign contribu-
tons levied on aspfrants to Office Of
all parties alike.
For the disconnected Republicans
who are not going on the political high
road to take purses, it seems to us
that the most effective, as we'll as the
most honorable way is just to go to the
polls and vote for the Democratic can
didate for governor, whoever he may

Contemporary Comment
Strengthens the Ticket

Judge Parker's action win strengthen
the ticket in New York, New. Jersey,
connecticut, Maryland and Delaware
states which the party must win if it
is TO succeed. We doubt whether the
ticket VIII be seriously weakened in
any state offering the refnotest chance
OF democratic success. If Judge Par
ker mad not acted as he did, New York
would have been lost from the very
start. The great Democratic and in
dependent papers and influential Dem
ocrats OF that state were in open re-
Nolt against the party. We believe
ihat many of the free silver Democrats,
including Mr. Bryan, will respect and
support man who dares tell the truth,
even at the risk of losing presiden-
tlal nomination. As for the Demo-
cratlc party, it is at last out of the bog
OF .Fopullsm. The future, whether it
prings immediate victory or not, is
bright The gold standard is firmly
and irrevocably established. And so
we go into, the campaign under the
pest possible conditions. We salute
Alton Brooks Parker as an honorable
ana eourag eous man.-Indianapolis

What the Editors Say

The prospect of the election of
Judge Parker to the presidency is daily
becoming more auSpicious. The more
ms stainless character and splendid
abilities are studied by the people the
stronger Judge Parker becomes. His
strength and popularity promise to
grow as the campaign advances. When
the Democrats of the entire country
are united and harmonious and when
they nominate a candidate and premul-
gate "a platform that commands the
support of the independent voters a
democratic victory follows at the POLLS
such were the conditions in the Demo-
cratic party in 1876, when Tilden re-
ceived large majority of the popular
vote, and in 1884 and 1892, when Cleve-
land was elected-FaribauIt Pilot.

BRAVERY OF CREW
SAVES PASSENGERS
Steamer Catches Fire, but $50
People Are Saved With Aid
From Yacht

CLAYTON, n. Y, July 22.-Tke
steam yacht Castanet, of the Wisgor
line, returning from Kingston, Ont,
this afternoon with load of $50 eX-
cursionists, caught fire in midstream,
and only by the most fortunate cir
cumstanees was an awful accident
averted.
The yacht, was four miles from
Kingston and half mile from shore.
A stiff breeze was blowing and the
passengers were enjoying the ride,
when suddenly sheet of flame shot
up through the hatchways. The pas
sengers at once ran tor the ends of the
boat. The flames swept up to the can
vas awnings, and in a moment these
were abIaZe.
While the passengers were huddled
forward and aft the engineer and fire
man made their way through the
flames from the engine room. The
crew. after distributing life preservers
to the passengers, began to fight the
blaze.
Capt. Barney Num- headed the Cas-
tanet toward shore, and was followed
by the steam yacht Nokomis belong
ing to w. III. Nichols, of New York,
which was mile away when the blaze
burst out. The burning boat was
beached on Cedar island, and in a mo-
ment the NokomiS was run behind her.
The passengers were transferred with
out the loss of life, and the fire was
eXtinguished by the united efforts of
both crews. Engineer Charles Wood
and son, Raymond Wood, the fireman,
were both badly burned, but will re-
cover
The cause of the accident was an
explosion of gas in the firebox, which
threw the hot Goals out into the engine
room and down the galleys.

BETTER THINGS ARE
PROMISED BY DUN
Encouraging Factors Dominate
the Business Prospects of
the Country

NEW YORK, July pr. G. Dun &c
Co.'S weekly review of trade tomorrow
VIII say: Encouraging factors pre-
dominate. Little definite increase is
seen in the distribution of merchan-
disc, but developments of the past
week promise better things in the near
future. The most important influence
for good is brighter crop prospects.
For the present the best news comes
from the large cities, where warm
weather has stimulated retail trade in
lightweight fabrics, and jobbers re-
ported that orders from agricultural
communities are much better than
from manufacturers. There are still
many complaints of slow collections.
In the principal manufacturing
branches there is still much idle ma
chinery, especially at cotton mills and
iron plants, while most window glass
producers will not resume until Sep

Railway Earnings
Reports of railway earnings for July
so far show only a small loss of <
per cent as compared with last year.
1t is gratifying to note in dispatches
from iron and steel centers that the.
consumers are making inquiries which
promise to result in considerable bust
ness. In SO far as actual contracts are
concerned the past week was probably
the dulleSt thus far this year, vet the
tone appears to be distinctly better.
and signs of growing confidence are
most encouraging after the long period
in which caution and conservatism
were the chief sentiments
In the textile markets the most i'm
portant event is the decision of opera
tives at Fall River to go on strike next
Monday against the reduction of II per
cent in wages. Considering the fact
that there is little demand and stocks
OF goods are ample for current needs
1t is probable that the trade will not be
seriously affected. In the wooden goods
division the chief feature was the
opening of new lines of mems wear at
moderate advances fully justified by
the higher position of the raw material.
Demand proved fairly good and fur
Their advances are anticipated
Footwear factories in New England
are busy on contracts for fall deliv-
cry and there is brisk demand for
heavy lines. Hides We're strengthened
by the packing house difficulty, partic-
ularly sailing, of which the supply is
small. Doubtless the hide situation
was partly responsible for the impr1v-
ed demand for leather, although actual
requirements of shoe factories account
for a share of the orders.
Failures Of the week numbered 213
In the United States, against 191 last
year, and 20 in Canada, compared with
