TO TAKE LID OFF
THE STATE FAIR
BILLS PENDING WHICH WOULD
MAKE IT "WIDE OPEN.'
A Certain st. Paul Clique Constructs
Well-Veiled Measures for the Legis-
lature, One Effect of Which Would
Be to Permit Illegal Liquor-selling
on or Near the Grounds.

What appears to be a well-organized
attack upon the Minnesota state fair
by interests which want to see the fair
run on the wide-open principle, has
developed in the legislature. The ele-
ment which had a good deal to say IN
state-fair matters some twelve or If
teen years ago, when blind pigs -four
ished and when pool-selling governed
the racetrack, to the scandal of the
mass of the people Of the state, is do
ing it's best to regain a place on the
fair grounds. The movement originates
in st. Paul, but among a crowd which
the better class Of St. Paul business
men frown upon and oppose vigorously.
The ft Of h the 6anap al
Misunderstanding bill removing from JUS
tees of the peace jurisdiction in cases
of offense against the liquor laws. This
was to apply in "counties of $4,000
population or over" and was intro
duced by Duluth member of the
legislature, The state-fair law pro-
yides for holding usFt a; court on

a mile outside the grounds, thus COM
pletely covering the blind-pig situa-
ton in connection with the fair. I'm
der its provisions the state-fair man
agement has been able to hold the
blindpiggers in check and remove what
was once a stain on the state-fair
record. ri
AS soon as the effect of this bill was
discovered, friend Of the state fair
in the house secured an amendment ex-
empting the fair from it's provisions.
The measure was at once dropped AID

the senate. It is now pending. @
The next attack was thru the "HicI

law, representation in the Minnesota
State Agricultural society is thru ap-
pointment by county agricultural So
cieties. The Hickey bill provides that
when county agricultural society does
not appoint, the governor shall appoint
members from such county. AS there

Senator's Tale.

Hannibal Hamlin, relates the Boston
Herald, for many years United States
senator from Maine, and vice president
during the civil war, was wont to tell
the following story on himself:
A man by the name of Pearson, while
passing along the main street in Bangor,
stepped into a hole in the sidewalk. and
falling, broke his leg. He brought suit
against the city for $1,000 and engaged
Hamlin as counsel.
Hamlin won his case, but the city ap-
pealed to the supreme court. Here also
the decision was for Hamlin's client.
After settling up the claim Hamlin sent
for his client and handed him 81.

man.
That's your damages, after taking
out my fee, the cost of appeal, and sey.

and then at Hamlin. What's the mat.

Not Much "Meandering."

claims the sapient scribe OF the Osborne
(Kan.) News; but when your husband
meanders off and leaves you without
wood and you have to meander up and
down the lane pulling splinters off the
fence to cook dinner, and when you
meander along in the wet grass in
search of the cows till your shoes are the
color of rawhide and your stockings
soaked. ard when you meander out
across out across 20 acres of plowed
ground with club to drive the hogs out
of the corn field and tear your dress on
the barb-wire fence, when you meander
back home to the house, find that the
billy goat has butted the stufin' out OF
YOUR child and find the old hen with 40
chickens in the parlor, you'll put your

every important movement looking to
the control of epidemics and the preven-

the borders of the United States.
DR.. Wyman is a modest gentleman.
who never intrudes himself on pubic
notice, but his position at the head OF
the health department of the govern
ment brings him into prominence, and
the work of his bureau has been so I'M
portant and at times almost sensational
that it necessarily has made him one OF
the best-known of public officials. DR..
Wyman has worked. during the IA
years he has occupied his present place,
in favor of national health laws and
regulations and quarantine. He has
successfully opposed the old regimes
of shotgun quarantine that obtained in
the south. The United States health Of
ficers are row recognized everywhere,
and no longer opposed in the discharge
of their duties. DR.. Wyman has been
able during his administration to so po-
lice the frontiers with inspectors ofshis
bureau as 10 reduce to the minimum the
danger of the introduction of yellow
fever and cholera.
Surgeon-GeneralW Wyman was in the
marine hospital service before he was
called to his present position. He was
four years at the head of the marine hos
| pital in Baltimore. and in addition to
looking after the health of American
seamen, he found time to take up the
fight against the cruelty practiced on
crews of oyster vessels. He was also in
the marine hospital in New York.

tional safeguards to the health of the
people. This public health service has
a rather interesting history. as it is
unique in the governments of the world.
No such organization exists in any other
country. and probably no function OF
our federal government carries with it
more arbitrary and far reaching pow
ers than the enforcement of health reg
ulations. The marine hospital service
was established by act of congress July
Is. 1913. Within two years there was es-
tablished isolated hospitals at Norfolk,
Boston. Newport and Charleston. Up to
1871, when the service was reorganized
under single head, a dozen hospitals
had been established, including those at
Baltimore. New York and Evansville,
Ind. For three-quarters of century
there was a very lax administration of
these isolated hospitals. When the
service was reorganized, Surgeon Cen
eral Woodwork became its head. and
improvement at once followed.
The upbuilding of the service is slow
work, however, but under Dr. Wyman,
who took charge IA years ago, this serv-
ice which then only looked after the
sick merchant sailors, was transformed
into national health service, controll-
ing national and interstate quarantine,
and the inspection of the millions of i'm
migrants who come to this country. The
bureau also handles epidemics, state,
national and insular, and controls the
production and distribution of serums,
viruses, toxins and analogous products.
It conducts scientific research along hy-
gienic lines. either in the finely equipped
laboratory in this city or in some part
Of the territory or possessions of the
United States.
The hygienic laboratory which now
occupies the old naval observatory, Is
engaged in most important investiga-
tions. 1t promises in time to become one

ment of agriculture developed this idea,
and although its practical application
is less than three years old, it has now

There is nothing of the aristoerat about
him. and he takes the keenest interest
in American manners, customs anu
sports. Like his predecessor, Slr
Michael Herbert, and also like the late
Lord Pauncefote, Sir Mortimer seems
destined to increase the entente cordlale
between Great Britain and the United
States. He is a welcome visitor at the
white house, and President Roosevelt
is really very fond of him. Thefact Is
that Mr.. Roosevelt enjoys an actual
comradeship with several of the ambas-
sadors, notably Durand, Sternberg ana
Jusserand. The latter is prime 1asor-
ite with all the officials. Secretary Ia1t
saws he likes him because he Is really

has been stationed he has gathered some
interesting data about the manners and
methods cf the Juvenile population. He
has. been greatly amused in observing
the newsbots of New York and also the
young colored and white arabs of the
streets of Washington, but he thinks
that for juvenile intelligence the little
folks of Persia take the palm. AS an il
lustration of this, he relates anfncident
that occurred when he represented
Great Britain at Teheran. He and some
of the legation people got up picnic
and told the cook to prepare luncheon.
The latter said that his children would
pack the basket. as they were well ac-
uuainted with British ways When Sir
Mortimer himself unpacked the drink
ables, in which were claret and brandy,
he found package of peppermint drops
tied to each bottle. He was little
startled to find how closely the Persian
Youngsters had studied English ways.

This is rather inadequate description
of Hon. Alvey A. Adee. whose official
designation is the second assistant Sec
retary of state, but it will suffice to pic

have had to do business at the state de-
partment, Mr. Adee is a government in
stitution He is fixture in the state de-
partment and indispensable in the con-
duct of certain phases of international
business.
Secretary Adee's whole life has been
devoted to diplomacy, and if the truth
were known, the majority of the able
state papers that have appeared over the
names of much more famous, men than
he during the last 20 years have been OF
his composition. He is an expert in the
use of diplomatic language, and in the
construction of correspondence that
will carry harsh truths in the softes1
| terms. Mr. Adee's greatest aff1ictlon is
| his almost total deafness. He is natural
| ly of a sociable disposition, but this
| failing prevents his mingling very free
/ Iy with other people.
Not long ago Mr.. Adee presided at the
meeting of the directors of the bureau
of American republics. As he could not
| hear any motion made or speeches de.
| livered, he worked out a programme
which he had typewriter and given to
each member. In this programme the
order of business was indicated and the
| time to be allotted to each subject. The
number of minutes each member was to

Mr. Adee called the meeting to order
exactly on time and then with split.

grandiloquent South and Central Ameri-
can ministers were much astounded te
be cut off in the midst of their speeches
by the sharp pounding of Mr.. .Adee's
gavel. The latter never let on for mo-
ment that he knew he was interfering
with Speeches. but Immediately an
nounced the next order of business, anG
in this way the meeting was conducted
on schedule time and according to ths
Adee programme.
