FROM SOUTH AMERICA
TO STUDY FLOUR MILLS

Senior ,Erneste Stricken of Buenos
Aires, Argentine, is in Minneapolis to-
day, making acquaintance in the grain
trade and Inspecting the hourmills and
the grain elevators. A. Weber, also of
Buenos Aires, accompanies -. Senior
strickler. The two have an itinerary
which includes Buffalo, st. Louis and
other milling centers. They will re-
milan in Minneapolis about three days.
Senior Stricken is the big miller of
Argentine, and is principal stakeholder
and director Of the River Platte Mill
ing company, operating the largest
plant in Argentine, located at Buenos
Ayres, having a daily capacity of 500
tons Of flour, which means consumption
of about $4,000 bushels of wheat. The
company has heavy domestic trade,
and exports much flour to Brazil-but
not much Argentine flour goes to Eu-
rope, the raw material moving instead.
This year Senior Stricken says Argen-
tine will produce more wheat than ever,
the bulk Of which will linda market in
Liverpool and Belgium. 81
Aside from the important business
connections Senior Stricken has the
title Of Director de la sociedad
Anonima, and carries with him a com
mission from his government as spe-
cial minister to inspect and report up on
milling and grain handling and general
monetary and commercial conditions in
the United States. ........s...-..... IS.

DOES MAYORS VETO
KILL CLARK ORDINANCE?

Aldermen who were at the city hall
this morning express strong doubts as to
the passage of the Clark saloon license
ordinance over the mayors veto. They
predict that W hen the matter comes up
for consideration next Friday evening
aldermen who voted for it will sustain
the mayor. They did not favor the
measure and voted for it only for politi-
cal effect. Having no occasion to worry
about the political feature of the mat
ter after election they will vote against
it. Of those absent from the last coun-
Gil meeting Alderman J. H. Van Nest
is the only one counted in favor of the
ordinance. AS the measure secured only
seventeen votes at the time of its pas
sage, the chances for obtaining the nee
essary eighteen to pass it over the veto
are not Of the best. 49,
The opposition of the mayor to the
ordinance seriously handicaps the work
of the Home Protection league, which
was preparing to wage an active cam
paign against the winerooms. Of
cou1se, the league has no intention of
aIAitting defeat, and if the ordinance
annot be passed, it has chance to
work along other lines, which, tho pos
sibly not as direct, can be made ef-
fective.

WHEAT FROM CANADA
JAMES S. BELL is OPPOSED TO
Adjustment OF DUTY AND
MAKES SUGGESTIONS.

In an article in the Commercial West
today, James S. Bell, president of the
Washburn Crosby company, goes on rec
ord as opposing the abolition of the
duty on Canadian wheat. Instead, he
favors laws that will allow American
millers to grind Canadian wheat and
at the same time compete with the
foreign miller. He says:
'sIt would not be very difficult
task to convince the farmer Of North
Dakota and Minnesota that he would
be benefited by the removal Of the
duty, when he can plainly see that
wheat now selling at 90 cents a bushel
less than he is obtaining would be i'm
mediately thrown upon his market. In
the past the farmer was not particular
ly interested because the, difference in
price was not oticeable, but he now
realizes that he IS being protected, and
that in measure he is being compen-
stated for the higher prices that he has
household and on his farm which are
protected by high tariff duties. -
Mr.. Bell says that the price of wheat,
when there is surplus in this country,
is regulated by the: prices in foreign
countries, but there is no longer pos
sibility of a surplus with the relatively
higher requirements for food purposes.
In discussing the question Of grind
wheat IN BOND, or In paying the duty
| and asking for a rebate when the
same wheat is exported as flour, he says
ton on the by-products which must be
retained at home. He favors the bill
introduced by Congressman Stevens OF
St. Paul, which he says will greatly ia
cilitate the grinding Of Canadian wheat
| The Lowering bill is also commended.

BUSINESS MEN NEEDED
Prominent Men Urge g. w. Thompson
for School Board.

The expenditure for school purposes
in the city of Minneapolis in 1908 was
81, 132, 500, or very nearly one-third of
the entire expenditure for municipal
purposes.
The demands of the school board are
from the sale of bonds for school build
ings. Every indication points to the
demand for more, rather than less,
money for our schools. ~ FL !
We believe it is imperative that
every dollar of expenditure should be
on a strictly value-received basis and
that the proportionate representation
of practical business men on the board
of education should be increased. We,
therefore, commend to the voters of the
city the name of Clifford W. Thomp-
son, one of the proprietors of the A.
D. Thompson Drug company, whose
name appears on the republican ticket.
We know Mr.. Thompson as a force
full, high grade man and citizen, a man
well posted in the needs Of the schools.
We believe Mr.. Thompson represents
an element which could be introduced
to advantage on the board and heartily
indorse his candidacy. -,.r

A BRIDE.ELECT
LOSES SAYINGS
BURGLARS TAKE MONEY SAVED
FOR HER TRoUssEAU.
Miss Redeem Had Been Working Hard
to Lay by Something for Her We'd
ding, But the Thieves Found Her Lit
tie Hoard and Left Her Not a Cent


After she had saved nearly 800 to
purchase her wedding outfit, burglars
entered Miss Tina Redeem S home at
Russell and Twenty-third avenues n,
and took all her savings from her
trunk.
The burglary occurred Thursday
evening and was an unusually daring
one. All the doors were securely fas-
tened, but the marauders forced open
rear window with jimmy and then
ransacked the house thoroly. So quietly
did they WORK. that hat no one knew 6 Gd
next morning. Miss Redeem was the
heaviest loser, as she had placed all
her money in her trunk.
Miss Redeem is to be married in a
few weeks and in order that she might
have the money close at hand when she
needed it for occasional purchases, had
not placed it in the bank. She is en-
ployed as seamstress.

.NORTHROP LETTER
NOT A COMPLIMENT
IT WAS WRITTEN TO KEEP
HAYNES FROM BACKSLIDING.
Now the Mayors Workers Are Making
Capital Out of the Letter and Claim
ing Credit for Reform Which Was
Never ompleted-Und At
tack on Jones. *

AS one Of the final efforts of the
campaign, the friends of Mayor J. c.
Haynes are giving. great prominence to
letter from President Cyrus Northrop
Of the university. The epistle is dated
May 10 and commends the mayor in
the highest terms for closing the OBJ
Jectionable houses on Main street. 1t
is being scattered broadcast both by
Individual letters and thru some of the
newspapers. - .-. ...-... ..-..-
AS a matter of fact, were the whole
truth known, the letter. is one of the
most damaging. pieces Of literature that
could be. found for Haynes. Altho he
IS a. resident of the part of the city
street resorts, Mr.. Haynes had little or
nothing to do with initiating the move
ment. Public meetings were held, but
the mayor IS assurances Of support were
SO vague and indefinite that those be-
hind the movement felt it necessary
to use all their influence.
A certain date was set for the vicious
resorts to close, but the administration
ing out the dives. Under these cir
cumstances, President Northrop wrote
the letter with the idea of putting it
up to the mayor very strongly. In
other words, he thanked the mayor for
efecting a reform, which had not been
accomplished, in order to make it ex-
tremely difficult for Haynes to 90
back on his promise.
Nor is this ALL. While some of the
resorts. closed, the largest and most
expensively-furn resort on Main
street is still running. Thus the Haynes
workers are trying to make capital
out of a letter which was a reproach
and are trying to give him credit for a
reform which was never completed.
In this same connection story, in
the nature of roorback, is being in
dustriously circulated today in regard
to D. P. Jones' administration of va
rious properties devoted to vice. Those
at all familiar with the principles OF
the rental agency conducted by Mr.
Jones are thoroly familiar with his pol
icy regarding this kind of business. h
has never managed such properties, MOI
has he ever transacted any business
for them in any way whatsoever. Sew
eral years ago he even went so far as
to exclude from a list of properties
turned over to him for management
one place which was being used for i'm
moral purposes.

DIES IN EPILEPTlC
~@~ FIT AT PALISADE MILL

James Craig, mill employee, was
found dead in an obscure corner Of the
Palisade flour mill this forenoon by
some of his fellow workmen.
For several years Craig had been
subject to epileptic fits, and altho the
direct cause of his death was frac-
tured skull, the old malady was back of
it all: Apparently Craig had been
standing Oh a ladder repairing some
machinery, and was suddenly seized
with fit. He could not keep his bal
ance and fell backward to the floor.
Death, no doubt, came instantly, as
there was no evidence Of death strug-
gle. sr--t-,.s
When the shift was changed This
morning no one noticed. his absence and
until his dead body was found it was
generally thought that he had gone
home before the others. Coroner U. G.
Williams, after pronouncing death due
to accident, had the body removed to
the man s home, TIP Fourteenth avenue
NE. Craig was married and had a
