The Mexican boil weevil while seri-
ously injuring the cotton crop of 1904
has still permitted a crop worth $780,
000.000 to be secured. AS this is a
cash drop and confined to only a few
states of the south large measure of
financial prosperity is in sight.

We notice that the president is the
recipient each year of thirty seven
pound turkey for Thanksgiving, sent
by some man in New England. If his
excellency has cut his eyeteeth he will
let the members of his cabinet work on
this tough old tom, while he and Mrs.
President will return thanks over a
nice little ten pound hen turkey.

There is no question about the fertil-
ity OF the soil in western Canada and
the wonderful yield of the crops and
their excellent quality. The only draw
back to locating there is that fellow

he tumbles out of bed in the morning

The addition to the corn crop of Ne
braska of Just one bushel per acre

Washington. Dec 1.-THE principal duty
scheduled for the Senate for the present week IS
the taking of the vote on the Philippine Clvii
Government bill which Is set down for next Fri
dav at O'Clock Under the agreement to
vote the bill remains the unfinished business OF
the Senate until that date. and IT will have prefer
ence over all other questions In debate each day
after o'clock Many Democratic Senators
are opposed to the bill. but 1t is thought there
will be no general debate on the Philippine ques-
ton as they consider the passage of the bill
foregone conclusion. They will devote their efforts
to securing modification of some of the provisions
which they regard as especially obnoxious. giving
special attention to the bond and Chinese immigra
ton clauses.
After the vote on the Philippine bill on Friday
the Senate will adjourn until the following Mon
day. and 1t is considered doubtful whether much
business of general importance VIII be under

at White Bear.

Official trials Of Seawanhaka cup race
challengers is on this afternoon at White
Bear The Wihuja, the Loudon boat, is
one of the contestants, and Minnetonka
yachtsmen think her a likely candidate.
A friendly race was sailed Saturday in
which a slight inattention of Wihuja's
sailors cost her the race by a narrow
margin. Following is the order in which
the boats finished:

Today the official trials found Wihuja
tuned up to racing form. The entries to-
day will be Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Wihuja,
Seeress and Moccasin. It is the intention
to race the boats in pairs, the winners
racing down. AS much windward work
as possible will be given them, and if the
wind pipes SO much the better.
There are two boats which the club
will not be able to try out until next

unable for any reason to make the

LIND WOULDN'T BE GOVERNOR

John Lind says he wouldn't take
the democratic nomination for COVER
nor even if the state convention would
hand him certificate Of election at
the same time. At least so the Hen
nepin county congressman told IN
confidence some of his political adj
mirers.
Because Of the controversy that ex-
lists in the republican party over the
gubernatorial nomination, some lead
ing democrats conceived an idea that
this would be a propitious time Tor
John Lind to run again for governor,
with a good chance of being elected.
But Lind himself nipped this little
scheme in the bud.
"To tell you the TRUTH" he told his
visitors, Il wouldn't be governor OF
this state again under the conditions
that existed before for anything. Now
just think; I had the legislature
against me at every turn; all the state
officers, except those I appointed,
| were republican, and each ready to
oppose me at any opportunity. Every
newspaper in the twin cities was as
sailing me on any and every pretext,
Whatever did was twisted and rep
resented before the people in a false
| light. No matter how hard I tried tc
do my duty, it was made to appear
that was doing something I shoulc
not. No, under no. circumstances
would I again be governor Of Mime.

Upon subjecting the several beers
to careful analysis find that the

Louis, U. S. A., is very similar, In all
its characteristics, to the finest and
best Pilsener beers. It is efferves-
cent, clear and sparkling, has a beau
tiful creamy foam and is possessed OF
pure, wholesome taste and an ex-s
uuisite hop flavor. It's keeping qualt-
ties by far exceed those Of the PIT
sener beers, resulting from the use
Of the very best materials in brew
ing, and the thorough maturity of the
product The analysis further shows
that no acids or other preservatives
have been used in its production, and
as a, result Of my examination pro-
