SOMETHING ON ST. CLOUD
POLITICS.

.S.s.s POLITICS.
The following appeared in the ST..
Paul Dispatch Tuesday evening
st. Cloud, April 17-The fight be-
tween the Hearst and anti-Hearst
wings of the democratic party in ST..
Cloud CONTINUES with undated Bit
terness, and figured in the appoint
ment Of the new sppointive city
officers by the new democratic city
council at it's first meeting last night.
The snti-Hearst wing IL composed
of old timers, who realize that they
are losing their grip and being
crowded to the rear by the younger
element of the party, which Is the
Hearst wing. The anti-Hearst wing,
represented by sucn leaders az Editor
G. F. Macdonald, of the st. Cloud
Times; Attorney J. D. Sullivan and
others, bitterly opposed the election Of
John E. G.. Robinson for mayor,
though he was the regular nominee of
the democratic city convention, be.
cause Robinson is an avowed Hearst
man, whose picture was recently
printed in the Chicago American as
zone of three Hearst leaders in. Mime
sota.'' So far was this fight against
Robinson carried, that during the en-
tire municipal campaign, the Times,
the democratic organ, never once
mentioned the name of Robinson, the
mayor and democratic candidate fol
reelection, in it's columns.
Though beaten in the effort to pre-
vent Robinson's reelection, the anti
Hearst element continued it's fight,
and at the caucus of the democratic
members of the city council, held Sat-
urday night, did their utmost by
BRINGING pressure to bear upon the
ten democratic members out Of the
fifteen councilmen to prevent the
nomination Of Henry J. Limperich, a
Hearst man, for CITY clerk, and James
r. Bennett, Jr., Hearst's Minnesota
manager, for city attorney. The
effort failed. as did the effort to de-
feat Robinson for mayor. and Linn
perich and Bennett were chosen last
night. by the council as city clerk and
city attorney, respectively.
But still the end Of the anti-Hearst
campaign on the part Of the former
democratic leaders who appear to
have been pushed aside and to be be-
coming passe, is not ended. It has

been considered that James R. Ben
nett, J1., the manager OF Hearst's
Minnesota campaign, would 90 as q
delegate from this state to the con-
vention at st. Louis. But the "old
heads have figured out a combine
tion which they expect will beat him
and send an anti-Hearst delegate from
the Sixth congressional district. They
have brought out as candidate for
delegate, Frank Zins, an anti Hearst
man, proprietor of the Nordstern, the
most Influential German newspaper in
this part of the state. They figure
that the Hearst managers will not
dare oppose him for fear of alienat-
Ing the German vote. This argument
looked good at first. and there might
have been something in 1t when Zins
was first brought out. but since the
open and vindictive " rk done by the
anti Hearst leaders in their effort to
defeat Robinson for mayor, in spite of
the fact that he was the nominee of
the regular democratic convention,
and just because he is a Hearst man,
and the further effort of the same
crowd to dictate anti-Hearst appoint
ments by the council. has caused the
| Hearst leaders to throw aside all at
tempts at Cancellation, and they will
now welcome chance to fight Zins or
any other anti-Hearst man on any
proposition whatsoever
The old leaders of the local democ-
racy who are leading the anti-Hearst
fight, had long been looked up to as
the leaders of the party in city and
county. but for the past few years
they have made the mistake of let
ting the young fellows do all the
work, while they took to themselves
all the credit and none Of the labor.
AS result, their grip has weak
ened, and there has grown up under
their noses, without their knowledge,
a we'll constructed and powerful ma
chine of the younger, more aggressive
element Of the party. who believe
that having done all the work they
are entitled to more of the substan-
tial rewards that have heretofore
been doled out by the old timers.
That this machine is now in the
sscendancy here. is proven by the two
defeats administered the 'old timers"
In spite Of the desperate efforts of the
latter, and the Hearst element of the
democracy is now more confident than
ever of sending a Hearst delegation
from this district to the st. Louis
convention.

NOW GREAT scHoLAR wooEn.
D. Samuel Johnson's Final and Con,
vincing Argument.

DR.. Samuel Johnson married Mr.
Porter of Birmingham. That lady'S
6aughter thus described the doctors
wooing: "His appearance was very
1orbiddirg; he was lean and lank, %
that his immense structure of bones
was hideously striking to the eye, and
the scars of the scrofula were deeply
Visible. He also wore his hair, which
was straight and stiff, and separated
behind; and he often had, seemingly,
eonvulsive starts and odd gesticular
lions, which tended to excite at once
surprise and ridicule. Mrs. Porter was
20 much engaged by his conversation
that she overlooked all these external
disadvantages and said to her daugh.
ter: This Is the most sensible man
that ever saw in my life.'" Mrs.
Porter, who was twice Johnson's age,
was not easily won. Urged by her
learned lover to say why she still r.

had been hung and she did not wish

TEDDY Nd ROC KEFELI,,ER.


The close alliance still continues to
exist between { he administration and
the STANDARD OIL crowd, ,.''ls as It is
called down on Wall street. "a long
time ago the Independent printed the
facts about the deal with BOOKSELLERS
National City bank Of New York, in
the sale Of the old customs house.
There was never more open and un-
disguised robbery of the treasury than
was involved in this transaction, says
the Nebraska Independent. The veil
thrown over it is 90 thin that an
octogenarian can see through 1t with
out putting on his speotaoles. The
government sold this great building
to the National City bank. The bank
then informed the government that it
had made transfer of credits on it's
books and the government was cred
tied with having deposited that much
money. The government continues to
occupy the old custom house and will
do 80 for some years to come. The
National City bank therefore charges
the government $3.50, 600 a year for
the rent OF the old custom house.
There is another little trick in this
business. In making the entry on it's
books crediting the government with
a deposit in payment for the old Gus
toms house, the bank did not credit
the government with the full amount
paid for the building. The credit is
$50, 900 short Of that amount. The
government will therefore not make
deed to the bank as still owned by
the government. It follows that the
property cannot be taxed. The
amount Of taxes would be $50, 600 a
year. So here by this little under
standing with Teddy, Rockefeller
takes out of the treasury of the
United States yearly $3.50. 900 and out
Of the treasury Of the state of New
York $50. 600. That is to say that the
people of the United States and the
state OF New York are taxed 1910, 600
q year and the money turned over to
Rockefeller as q gift.
Mr.. Sulzer made motion in the
house the other day to strike the item
Of $3.50, 900 paid to Rockefeller for
rent Of the customs house from the
sundry civil appropriation bill and
the motion was defeated. Through
this transaction, Rockefeller draws
from the treasury a salary more than
four times as large as that Of the pre-
sident of the United States. A direct
tax on the people il made for the
benefit of Rockefeller. It is gift.
Rockefeller renders no service what
ever for it. It has been paid now for
four years.

THE TESTIMONY OF THE EAGLE

THE TESTIMONY OF THE EAGLE
We have before US the Brooklyn
Eagle, of Sunday, April 10th. This
paper is backing McCarren In his
fight for instructions in the New York
state convention. The anti
press published widely the statement
that McCarren carried, In the pri-
maries in the assembly districts,
seventeen out of twenty one counties.
and that he passed the word that
there should be no instructions. There
was good reason for MoCafren doing
this, which was that he couldn't help
himself. The Eagle proves this. The
head lines over the account Of the re-
suit in the districts are as follows:
"OMENS OF A BIG FIGHT IN
THE DELEGATES LIST.
The Eagle begins the article with
the following paragraph, the signifi.
cant part of which we have capital
lied:
"While Senaor McCarren did NOT
make good his prediction that the
organizatio On of which he is the lead
or would control nineteen Of the
twenty one assembly district conven-
tions which met in this borough last
night, he succeeded by policy Of
modification in DISTURBED sections
in obtaining an APPARENTLY Sc
cure hold on MORE THAN HALF
the delegates from Kings county to
the state convention.
The Eagle further says: "Quinn,
Kane, Bouck, Gray, Dooley. Shea
and sinnott go to the convention with
their delegates APPARENTLY COM
mitted to the McCarren program.
The delegates in the I'd. Sd, 9th,

McCarren, was made delegate to the

plimentary to Mcclellan.
The Eagle says that McCarren needs
seven doubtful leaders, whom it
names, to control the delegation.
Some of the districts instructed their
delegates to vote against instructions
for national delegates. All through
the article runs the tone of fear and
doubt.

SPUR TRACK
TO Be RESET
Curve at Kearny and Post
Streets Will Be Moved
Eight Feet From Sidewalk
IN CONFERENCE
officials Admit the Action
Was Illegal Since Permit
Was Not First Obtained

Representatives OF the United Rail-
roads held a long conference yesterday
with Mayor Schmitz relative to the
curve at Post and Kearny streets,
which the Board of Public Works
caused to be torn UP because it was
less than eleven feet from the side
walk. The result of the conference was
an agreement on the part of the COM
pany to rearrange the curve so that
it will be eight feet from the curb line.
Although this will still be a violation
of the ordinance Mayor Schmitz was
of the opinion that it was as much as
the company could be expected to do
in the premises in view of the rights
which 1t clearly possesses.
The company contends that its fran
chise for this point was granted before
the passage Of the ordinance and that
it is a mechanical impossibility to get
any such distance as eleven feet on
streets Of the width of Kearny and
curves in the city at that distance, but
the company finds it possible and is
willing to move it's track south as far
Is practicable This has been calculated
at the limit of one foot and two inches,
which would increase the present dis
tance Of five feet and two inches to six
feet and four inches In addition to
this, for better security, it is proposed
that the curb at the northwest corner
Of Post and Kearny streets shall be re-
formed so as to gain one foot and eight
inches additional distance, making
total distance Of eight feet between the
! rail and curb.
The company will at its own expense,
but under the supervision of the Board
of Public Works, reconstruct the curb
and repave the street at this point.
The rail is to be laid fatter and the
grade between rail and curb is to be
/ laid with less incline. The company,
/ however, will first obtain the consent
/ and recommendation of the Board of
Public Works and secure action by the
Beard of Supervisors permitting the
change in the curb.
The company conceded that it acted
without right in laying the curved
track without first obtaining a permit
from the Board of Public Works to
open the street for that purpose Appli-
cation was made at the end of the
/ conference to the board for the permit.
A blueprint. showing the new arrange
ment, accompanied the application,
which will be referred to the City En-
gipeer for investigation and report.

ADVERTISEMENTS.
What Sulphur Does
For the Human Body in Health and
Disease.

The mention of sulphur will recall to
many of us the early days when our
mothers and grandmothers gave us
our daily dose of sulphur and molasses
every spring and fall.
1t was the universal spring and fall
blood purifier" tonic and cure-aH,
and mind you, this old-fashioned rem
edy was not without merit.
The idea was good but the remedy
was crude and unpalatable, and a large
quantity had to be taken to get any
effect
Nowadays we get all the beneficial
effects Of sulphur in a palatable, con-
centrated form, so that a single grain
is far more effective than tablespoon
full of the crude sulphur.
In recent years research and expert
ment have proven that the best sulphur
for medicinal use is that obtained from
Calcium Calcium Sulphide) and sold
in drug stores under the name of
Stuarts Calcium Waters. They are
small chocolate coated pellets and con-
tain the active medicinal principle of
sulphur in a highly concentrated eff
fective form.
Few people are aware Of the value Of
this form of sulphur in restoring and
maintaining bodily vigor and health;
excretOry organs. and purifles and en-
riches the blood by the prompt eIimin-
alton of waste material.
Our grandmothers knew this when
they dosed US with sulphur and moas-
ses every spring and fall, but the cru
dity and impurity of ordinary flowers of
sulphur We're often worse than the dis
ease, and cannot compare with the
modern concentrated preparations Of
sulphur, Of which Stuart's Calcium
Waters are undoubtedly the best and
most widely used.
They are the natural antidote for
liver and kidney troubles and cure con-
stipation and purify the blood in a way
that often surprises patient and physi-
clan alike.
DR.. r. NJ wilkins while experiment.
ing with sulphur remedies soon found
that the sulphur from Calcium was su-
perior to any other form. He says:
For liver, kidney and blood troubles.
especially when resulting from consti-
patton or malaria, 1 have been sur
prised at the results obtained from
Stuart's Calcium Waters. In patients
suffering from boils and pimpes and
even deep-seated carbuncles, / have re-
peatedly seen them dry up and disap-
pear in four or five days, leaving the
skin clear and smooth. Although
Stuart's Calcium Waters is proprie-
tary article and sold by druggists. and
for that reason tabooed by many ply
siclans, yet 1 know Of nothing so safe
and reliable for constipation, liver and
kidney troubles and especially in all
forms of skin disease as this remedy"
At any rate people who are tired of
pills. cathartics and so-called blood
purifiers" will find in Stuart,s Cal
cium Waters far safer, more pala-
table and effective preparation.
