COST OF IMPERIALISM.

priation bill Senator Hale Of Maine
submitted a few remarks which OuG11

iected to the plans OF the naval board
saying that to carry out the plans CT
the board would soon require 100000,
coo per annum. He thought it might
REQUIRE as much as S120,0o0990 next
year He said:

pure and simple, and the American
navy bounds his complete horizon. |
To him the navy is everything and the |
navel board has run too much in the /
direction Of enormous ships. In some
RESPECTS the naval officers are like
the farmers who want to raise the big
gest pumpkins. They don't want Great
Britain and Germany to excel the Uni
ted States
OF course the naval officer vans
the biggest navy in the world, but
why should the taxpayers submit TO
such scheme
According to the press reports the
Senator admitted that the last eZ-
pensie additions to the navy had been
made necessary by the acquisition OF
the Philippines. and he added that
he would like to "get rid of the IS
lands" He declared that in case of
war we have to spend hundreds Of
millions in the Philippines"

But expensive as Imperialism is, when
measured by dollars and cents, the
greatest injury is that done to the

NEW WHOLESALE HOUSE.
Firm Organized to Handle and Later
Manufacture Knit Goods.
From Tuesdays Daily.


John A. Farmer and Charles f. Ford
have formed partnership and on Jan.
LIST will start in business under the firm
name of the Midland Knit Goods Co.
They have leased the Austin block on
South Front street, and will represent
eastern houses and do wholesale bus
mess in knit goods of all kinds, includ-
ing hosiery and underwear, both cotton
and wooden. Later on, the firm expects
to engage in the manufacture of these
goods, but for the present it will sim
ply do jobbing business.
Both gentlemen are well and favor
ably known in Mankato, and both have
been connected with the Mankato Mills
company, Mr.. Farmer as travelling
salesman and Mr.. Ford as superintend-
emit. Both understand the business
thoroughly, and their many friends wish
them success in their undertaking.
1t is understood that the Mankato
Mills company will soon cease to man
ufacture cotton goods, giving its atten-
tion exclusively to wooden goods.

CHAlRED THE MAYOR.
Mr.. Taylor Presented With a Hair O.
some Gift this Morning.

from TUESDAY DAILY
Mayor Taylor was this morning called
out from his office in the Saulpaugh
building into the hotel and detained a
few minutes by gentleman, who wish
ed to speak with him. He then return
ed to his office, and was about to resume
his seat at the desk, when he noticed
that the desk chair was an entirely new
one, an exceedingly handsome oaken ar
ticle, suited to his purposes in every
way. The seat was cushioned and would
revolve and recline, as the occupant
might desire. Tied to the chair was a
card with the words, Compliments of
the Mankato Police Force" The mayor
was as much pleased as he was surpris-
ed by the elegant Christmas gift and
feels that the beautiful piece of furn-
ture will ever give rise to the most
pleasant recollections of the boys with
blue coats and brass buttons.

Dangerous Vertigo
Dizziness or Swimming of the Head
Associated With a Sense of Fullness,
is a Certain Indication of an Oncom-
ing Apoplexy or Paralysis.
DIR. A. w. CHASE'S
NERVE PILLS

If the person subject to attack of dir
illness or swimming of the head, COM
monty called vertigo, would only stop
to realize that these symptoms are not
a disease in themselves, not temporary
ailments, but the plainest sort of warn
ings from nature of grave troubles of
deeper origin, of an exhausted nervous
system or of an oncoming apoplexy,
epilepsy or paralysis, the matter would
receive prompt attention. DIR. A. w.
Chase knew this and provided the cure
in his celebrated Nerve Pill, medicine
that brings back the glow of health and
strength by its power to furnish just
what the lily fed, half starved nervous
system needs, good, rich, wholesome
blood and nerve force or energy.

tell Opera company whose pay was in
arrears and whose manager, j. S. Cor
don, had gone away ostensibly to book
more engagements for the company. The
actors feared that Mr.. Gordon had disap-
money and left the troupe to fall to
pieces. Some of the members of the
company got tired of waiting in st. Paul
and left for Chicago. Others remained
at the hotels and kept on hoping and
figuring how to keep on the safe side of
their board bills. Most of them had a
little money saved and were able to
avoid running into debt. Some of the
troupe got together and telegraphed to
Mr.. Gordon imploring him to return, but
he wired back that it was not necessary.
He was going to book some profitable
engagements for the company and would
be back in due time. This only made
their anxiety all the more intense.
Last Sunday night Mr. Gordon appear
ed on the scene. The gloom of the troupe
was dispelled like mist before the morn
ing sun. The actors, such as had not
left town in despair, joyfully crowded
around their manager to hear news of
where he had been and what plans he
had made. Mr.. Gordon was Disguised
with what had taken place. He instantly
dispatched kilograms to Chicago and
elsewhere to draw the renegades back
into the flock. The deserters quickly re-
turned and Mr.. Gordon explained to all
that each booking he had made was
backed by a genuine guarantee. The
company left st. Paul on Monday eve
ming for Winnipeg and played there un-
der $500 guarantee.
Mrs. +. II. Snyder, who was interested
in bringing the company to st. Paul
said yesterday that the company was
not really stranded but that some of the
Italian members, ignorant of the bust
ness affairs of this country, feared such
another fate as that of their compatriot
Mascagni.

From Fridays Daily.
Old Boreas came out of Medicine Hat
yesterday, travelled swiftly over the
Canadian border and with speed that
made the movements of automobiles
look like that of go-carts, the fierce
and unframed Storm King swept across
the prairies of North Dakota, cut a
pathway through the tall timber in
northern Minnesota, aud late last night

Old Boreas held high carnival, and mean
while the coal man danced a merry jig
to the accompaniment of the music OF
the wind The coal man was out
early last evening to extend Old Boreas
a right royal welcome.
The storm that was predicted by the
government service Sunday afternoon for
yesterday morning did not begin to
make its appearance until late in the
afternoon, when there was a decided
drop in the temperature. Then came a
snow fall that lasted for couple of
hours, drifting slightly. The snow
fall then ceased and was not resumed
until nearly morning, when the snow
flakes began to come down thickly and
high northwest wind sprung up that
drifted it badly. This condition has
continued all day. The temperature for
tunately did not get very low, remain
ing at about ten degrees above zero.
The storm was a bad one, and kept
people in their houses. Had the snow
lain upon the level it would make
good sleighing, but the wind caught the
flakes up and hurled them along until
they were deposited in drifts on the lee
side of some obstacle OF rise
The railroads have suffered more or
less from the storm, and all of them tell
the same story of trains late.
The Milwaukee road has suffered the
most. All freight trains are abandoned

and not wheel is turning over the en-
tire western divisions. This mornings
passenger train came in an hour late,
but other passenger trains later in the
day may be much more delayed. Re-
ports received at the freight office indi-
cate that the storm is general over the
northwest. 1t is raging over all of the
western divisions and is about the same
north of Minneapolis and in Iowa as
here.
On the Omaha road the passenger
from the west due at 4:45 a. m. did
not arrive until $3.50 a. m. No. l6 came
in on time, but the noon train from the
west was an hour and forty minutes
late. Freight trains are somewhat de-
layed, but the service is not seriously
interrupted. The storm is reported as
worse at the west end of the line than
this side of Tracy.
Thus far there is not much delay on
the Chicago & Northwestern line either
in passenger or freight traffic. The
storm is reported as very bad along the
west end of the line.
The Chicago Great Western road is
suffering somewhat. The noon passen-
ger train came in an hour late, and
freight trains are a little delayed. The
wires are working badly, owing to get
ting crossed, and the freight depot has
not been able to get word from other
points along the line.
The government weather service does
not promise any let up in the condi-
tions for another day, at least. Colder
weather is said to be following the snow
storm, with clearing weather tomorrow
and much colder and high northwest
winds.
The coal dealers got many hurry up or
dcrs this morning. The ice men are hap
ply, because the ice is not yet thick
enough to store.
Mankato citizens should endeavor to
clear their walks of snow as rapidly as
possible after the storm subsidies, for the
convenience of pedestrians.
