HUMILITY.

A little hope to lift us up
To heights sublime,
The while we drink life's bitter cup
And wait on time!
Nor do we ask that all shall be
Made clear as day,
But that the soul be ever. free
To trust Away.
A little love we need, to, save
Our hearts from pain;
A little Joy we humbly crave
That faith, may. reign.
A little peace. little rest,
Full and complete:
OF all great gifts these are the best
To make life sweet,
Then may we love and think and work
Through all life's years,
And not the smallest duty shirk
Though crowned with tears,
These are the little things that turn
Our thoughts on high,
Grant them alone, and hell may burn,
But death shall die.

three judges, two clerks and con-

SWEDISH AMERICAN MEETING
Big Gathering of Republicans in
Tenth Ward WigWam.

One of the largest republican meet
ings held so far this campaign was
that Of the Swedish American Repub-
lican club in the Tenth ward WigWam
last evening. Five hundred were
present. Victor johnson presided.
The meeting was one for harmony
especially in the aldermanic field. The
ward is normally republican, yet it is
never able to elect a republican alder
man because ofdfact1onal differences.
1t was practically decided to unite on
Gust Engquist as the candidate for
alderman with an effort to suppress
publican aldermanic nominee.
Speakers of the evening were A. H.
Hail. Loren Fletcher, S. J. Smith, Ed
Allen, G. A. Nimocks, Frank Farnham
George Armstrong, Judge Dickinson,
G. N. Dickey, A. McNeal, John Schlen-
err; L. J. Lother for Sheriff Dreger;
Rev. Mr.. Wilkinson for D. P. Jones;

Illustrations are numerous fine halftones
OF many Of the handsome business
buildings that have been constructed
recently. Even the Minneapolitan will
be somewhat surprised at the nu,aber
and excellence of the fine specimens Of
architecture the city now possesses.
With its information condensed, but
ample and lucid and not mixed with
reading ads, = and with its array of
pictures, maps and generally attractive
appearance, the little book is not only
valuable as guide and handbook, but
as a souvenir. It is such book as will
help to spread the fame Of Minneapolis
many attractions.

STARCH PRICE sTIFFENED
AS Result Suit Is Begun Against
Stanchfield Go.

Stein, Hirsch & Co., of Chicago, filed
complaint today in the United States
district court against the Stanchfeld
Starch Manufacturing company Of
Stanchfeld, Mimi, alleging that the de-
PENDANT had broken contract entered
into Oct. 20, 1903, in which itw as
agreed that all starch manufactured by
the Stanchfeld company, except fifty
tons, which had already been contract
ed for, should, be sold to the complain
ant at the rate of $2.901s a hundred
pounds. ...
Since the contract was entered into
the value of starch has risen to 81 a
hundred pounds, and it is alleged that
the defendant has sold 100 tons to other
companies, thus causing the complain
ant loss of $2,1S2.50. The court is re-
quested to cause that amount to be re-
funded to the complainant with added
interest.

Speedy Auto Boat from This City
Makes New Record

A thirty-foot auto-racing boat
owned by George Rice ran up the
Mississippi from Prescott, Wis, to ST..
Paul, a distance Of thirty-two miles, in
two hours and twenty minutes. This
means a speed of fourteen miles an
hour against a four-mile current and
a stiff headwind, which is remarkable
time even for. a larger craft.
The boat was built for racing pur-
poses and has a double cockpit and a
turtle-bac deck. The twenty-horse
power engine, a White, built by the
Globe Iron Works company Of Mime
apolis, is the first one of the kind ever
put out and weighs but 400 pounds,
while the ordinary four-cylinder en-
gine of this type weighs 1920 pounds.
1t has a working speed of 900 revo-
lutions and is expected to surprise
some of the speedy ones on Mime
tonlSa and White Bear.

And the rate of homicide in the United States is higher than in Canada. where theIe age only fifteen indictments annually for this offense.
 Nor is the high rate of homicide in the United States due to our democratic dividual liberty Is, perhaps, greater. they have fewer homicides: while un der the democratic institutions of some of the Spanish-American Republics, is an utter disregard for the existing form of government.
 The fault Is not inherent in our com mon law and jury system. for under a like system crime is suppressed in Flu rope and Canada in way we seem not to understand. The highest European rate in our table Is in Belgium, where every death penalty since 1883 has been commuted to life imprisonment; and the lowest is in Canada. where seven eighths of those tried for murder were sentenced to death.
 It Is automatic that the general be ., liefs of every people. determine thelr trend of ideas. create q sense of duty and becomes the source of their inspir
 It will also be conceded that in New England questions affecting human conduct in its varied relations are more exactly determined and fixed in the minds of the people than in the Pacific States, where there is one homicide to 4.5O0. while in the former section the rate is one to 1,SO0.
 Hcw much of liberty. then, is found in right administration!
 From these data and my experience in presiding over the administration of the criminal law. I reach the following conclusions:
 First-Variations in the enforcement of law are not SO much due to climate race, density of population, illiteracy, form of government. length of govern :, mental experience, as to varying leniency in the spirit of its administra- tion.
 Second-This varying toleration of crime is largely the result of an i'm :. patient desire for individual power, born of unlimited opportunities, caus- ing meI to disregard their duties to the social compact.
 Third-Beneath 1t all is a moral un- rest. process of adjustment in indi .. vldual conceptions of, and cravings for, absolute truth, not yet so crystalized in the aggregate of individual souls as to become the fixed ideals Of the people.

THE CASE AFFAIR
NO REPLY RECEIVED FROM Tn
 EX-COLLECTOR.
He Has Asked for Former Examiner Cowan's Report and Will Proba-A'
 ply Fight Payment of M0ney.

No reply has yet come to State Au ditor Thomas l.. Sowell from his form al demand on John Case, exTax Col lector. of Mobile county, for the money shown to be due the State by him through the recent examination of his books and accounts by Assistant State Examiner c. F. Sedberry.
 MT. Sowell said yesterday that the only message he had received from MT. Case was a telegraphic request for a copy of the report made on his &C., counts by J. G. Cowan. Assistant State Examiner in 1899. This report showed that the accounts of Mir. Case were correct and MT. Sowell says he under stands the request of MT. Case to mean that he will set up the defense that his books having been found to be cor rect in 1899. he is not due the State anything for that year. A
 It will be remembered that as the result of a special examination by Ex- aminer Sedberry about two weeks ago it was Reported that MT. Case, who was then Chief of Police of Mobile, was due the State sss90s.ss as tax collector by reason of the fact that he was al- lowed double credits for errors and insolvencieh in 1899. With interest. the indebtedness of MT. Case will ap- proximate $11.000.
 The State Auditor laughed at the statements repeatedly published by Mobile newspapers that the bond of the former tax collector had expired and said that the statement published by The Advertiser with the report o1 Examiner Sedberry was correct This statement was to the effect that the bonding company was liable for the shortage for ten years after date of the bond. and that the State would take steps to collect the money as soon as reasonable time had passed after the formal demand on MT. Case for settle ment
 MT. Case was appointed tax collector of Mobile county by Governor Johns- ton to succeed B. B. Lott The oriri- nal bond of MT. Case made with a Bal fimore surety company was s100,00O but during the second year of his .u- ministration 1t was reduced to s60, ,0oO copy of this bond is on file at the capitol and a second copy Is in the cus- tody of the probate judge of Mobile county.
