Arizona One District.

The Republicans answer their Objec-
lions to union by saying that in the
Congressional appOrtiOnment in the new
State OF Arizona-NeW Mexico the old
Territory Of Arizona is to be consti-
tuted as one Congressional district ami
the present Territory Of New Mexico as
another. so that the Democrats will still
have an opportunity to elect one mem
Der from the new State.
Representative Hepburn and Repre-
sentative GrOsvenOr who led the fight
against Statehood in the Republican
caucus. were in such hopeless minority
that they finally yielded and agreed 10
be bound by the action of the caucus
10 support the bill. Mr.. Hepburn's OBJ
lection was that such numerically Smal u
States as Arizona-New Mexico should
not have as much power in the Senate
as the great States Of New York, Penn
syIvania. Ohio, and Illinois. His OBJ
lection was pointedly answered by Rep
resentatiVe Hogg OF Colorado. who
called Mr.. Hepburn's attention 10 the
fact that the proposed new States have
far greater population than Iowa (Sir-
Hepburn's State) had when il was uu-
mitted to the Union.

Butter Score.

Minnesota again has the highest av-
erage score on butter at the worlds
fair. j. C. Joclyn of Winsted takes the
sweepstakes on print butter with a
score of 90; Mrs. J. C. McRosta of
Owatonna sweepstakes on dairy, with
a score of 81.
Iowa gets a quarter of one point
ahead of Minnesota on creamery with
a score of esA; o. P. Jensen of Union
Creamery, Mimi, takes the second,
score of 90; James Rasmussen of Ler-
dahl, Mimi, third score, 97N.
Minnesota wins the sweepstakes on
unsalted butter by score Of 81. Mrs.
Sondegard of Hutchinson, Mimi, was
at a great disadvantage owing to the
fact that she complied with the rule
that required all butter to be in St.
Louis by Sept. 10. Iowa delivered its
product two days after the required
time. Wisconsin and Illinois deliv-
cred their showing at the exposition
grounds on Sept. is, five days after
the time required by the exposition
rules. This completes the third Of
the four tests. Minnesota has for the
third time won the highest average
and her ultimate full victory is prac-
tically assured.

SHE LOVES MANKIND
THE BEAUTIFUL LIFE STORY
OF MISS EVA BOOTH.
New Commander Of Salvation Army
in United States Il Lovingly
Known in London as can
gel Of the Sums"
New York Special.

New York Special
From q bareheaded lass who, with
her sweet voice and tambourine, led
street meetings in the slums Of Lon
don to the leadership of the Salvation
Army in this country is the story which
few weeks will see completed in the
career Of Eva Booth. It Is expected that
Miss Booth will soon come to New York
from Canada, where she is commander
Of the Canadian division, to assume the
leadership of the American division.
Her brother-in-law, Commander
Booth-Tucker, who is now the head OF
the army in. this country, has been so
depressed since the death of his wife
in railroad accident a short time ago
that the work of leading the Salvation
lists has proved load which he is I'M
able to bear to his own satisfaction.
Eva Booth began to do her share of
the work in spreading the creed of sal
walton to all mankind when she was
mere child. In 1884, when the advances
| OF the army in England were being re-
| ceived with hostility by the worst ele-
ment and with decided Indifference by
! the better classes, she made her first
appearance in the street meetings.
Down in the district of Whitechapel.
London, in the midst of the slums, the
army had begun its street meetings and
had met with all kinds of opposition,
even to open threats and show of force.
The Whitechapel hoodlum, afraid that
his sway in the district was threatened
by the activity Of the "sky soldiers"
turned out and tried by hooting, Kissing
and the throwing Of decayed vegetables
| to drive the Salvationists from the
| streets.
The authorities turned an Indifferent
ear to the appeals of Gen. Booth, and
things looked dark for the work of the
army in that part Of London which
needed it's efforts most One night
there arose on the little platform in the
street 12-year-old girl in the uniform
! of the army. The hoodlums stopped

in their efforts to drown the voices OF
the Salvationists and stared at the child
before them. Then, before they could
renew their efforts, she began to sing
The voice, clear and eager, ringing out
amid the dirt and squalor and sin OF
Whitechapel, silenced the crowds where
the efforts of the older workers had been
objects of ridicule. To the end the girl
went on with her song, and when she
ceased women who had not known what
tears were for years were crying and
men were standing silent and abashed
So the Salvation Army first won its
hold in the London slums, and so was
Eva Booth introduced to the people
among whom she was to spend years OF
work.
For two years she accompanied her
father in his tours and sang her way
into the hearts of her listeners. Then
because the people Of the slums could
not forget the little girl who had touched
their hearts, she stopped travelling with
the general and settled down to the
work of saving souls among the sub
merged classes. Her sweet face and
manners won the love of those among
whom she labored. Gifted with q fine
voice and grace of bearing, she cap
tivated the district and was soon known
as the "angel Of the sums"
When she was near her twentieth
year she won the love of young student
Of sociology who was pursuing his
studies in the London slums. The
young man saw the girl whose voice
and presence swayed the crowds that
gathered and promptly lost his heart
to her. He attended the meetings of
the army, joined in the choruses of the
songs, and finally avowed his love and
asked Miss Booth to become his wife.
But the bar Of the army's regulations
was between them. The young man was
unwilling to take up the task of soul
saving, and Eva Booth was so devoted
to her work that she would notbecome
the wife of any man who could not en-
gage with her in her labors.
Eva Booth continued in her efforts
in her chosen field, and the sociologist
sadly went his way. Miss Booth is now
the only one of Gen. Booths daughters
in the army who has not married.
With her advent as commander in
Canada she threw herself into her work
with the zeal that marked her efforts
in London. Her administration has
been characterized by good judgment
and success. In her duties as COM
manaer she has displayed the posses
sion Of rare executive ability. She has
fancy for big enterprises. When she
comes to assume charge of the American
division she will have opportunity to
use her ability in this regard.

James Farley, acknowledged head OF
IN army of experienced strike-break-
ers. IL now in New York, whittier he
was called by the officials of the ele-
waited road systems which were threat
ened with strike. When asked about
himself Farley said;
1T was an accident, in way, that
made me take up the business of break
ing strikes. During the car strike In
Brooklyn. in 1896, was employed as
sort of foreman over a small number
of non-union men. That was the first
time l ever had anything to do with
fighting a strike. The excitement
pleased me, and when the strike was
broken Is of the men who had gone
with me on cars through the crowds
asked me to take their names and ad-
dresses and call upon them again the
next time was mixed up in strike.
This request showed me that there are
q large number of men always ready
to go long ways simply to get into
q fight.
''Since then my records show over
$4,000 men have worked with me at
strike-breaking in the last nine years.
A great many of these men, Of course,
have married and settled down and
now lead quiet lives. They are out of

The most vicious mobs he had en-
countered, he said, were in Waterbury
and other New England towns, but the
most deadly were met with in Pennsyl-
vania and Virginia. When asked to de-
scribe his narrowest escapes, he said
in his quiet way to the New York
