OBSERVATIONS BY THE EDITOR
AND OTHERS

The St. Cloud Journal-Press copies
an editorial of ours and makes the
following Enthusiastically Eastman
esque comment:
This sounds very much as though
Bro. Eddy was wondering where he
was at, to use a familiar expression.
To remove his state of mind we will
again state that Senator 4. b. Brow
er is candidate for congress, and not
for governor. Congressman Buchanan
is also a candidate for congress.
Senator Brewer has done all in his
power to convince. Republicans that
he is not candidate for gOvei nor and
does not want the nomination. Ii
in the face OF this his name is used
as it is being used all over the state
because Republicans believe that he
is the man who can most easily and
surely win at the head of the ticket
it may be his misfortune but it is not
his fault. Now-Bro. Eddy having
endorsed both Brewer and Buchanan
as good men, there is nothing to pre-
vent his getting into the gubernatorial
race, and he will have no more sim
cere we'll wisher than the Journal
Press. But the Republicans-the
rank and tile-are going to nominate
the next governor, and they are pay
ing very little attention to the men
who are seeking the Office. They want
a winner and they are going to lind
him.
For the benefit of Alvah we will say
that the editor of the Herald always
knows where he is at. That is his
specially. We also wish to state that
we are a sincere admirer of Senator
Brewer. We regard him as unques-
tionably the ablest public man in
Minnesota of his age. Should he
continue in public life we believe he
has the brightest future of any man
in Minnesota. Should he decide to
devote himself exclusively to his pro-
fession he will become one of the
really great lawyers of the Nation.
We further wish to state we don't
care a straw whether he becomes
candidate for governor or congress or
is not candidate for any office at all.
Yet Mr.. Eastman knows, for he is no
political spring chicken, that there is
a deliberate plan Oh foot to make him
a candidate for governor in order to
get him out of the congressional race.
The St. Cloud editor also knows that
if Mr.. Brewers name goes before the
state convention as candidate for
governor and he fails to secure the
nomination he cannot enter the con-
gressional race with any hope Of sue
cess. The St. Cloud editor knows
that it is not the friends of Mr.. Brewer
that are SO strongly urging him for
the governorship. We still hold to
our original position. If Senator
Brewer wants to become candidate
for governor we believe he will be
nominated and elected. If he doesn't
want that office it is up to him to say
that he will not accept the office if
rendered him. The senator is diff
ferently situated than any other pos
sible candidate. We think he can
have either office, but he must make
selection.

Drainage Laws.

The drainage laws of the different
states vary greatly, and some of
them are very far from being
perfect. More than that, a good
many states have no well-defined laws
regulating the building of outlets for
drainage waters. The laws that have
been enacted are mostly laws that
have been suggested by some circum-
stance that has arisen. They are not
the result Of intelligent effort to get
whole system of just laws enacted.
This was discovered when Iowa farm
ers had a drainage convention called
and began to get together to discuss
the laws. A convention of such men
is far more able and likely to suggest
needed laws of this kind than is a poll
tician working for some particular in.
terest. Every state in the Union
should hold drainage convention like
the two that have been held in Iowa.

Guy & Thermometer.

Every butter-maker needs a Their

enough to permit of the making Of

WeII-Shaded Cattle Pastures.

In preparing land for pasture the
Importance of shade should not be
overlooked. We have seen pastures SO
perfectly cleared off that not a shrub
or bush was left under which the cat
tie and other stock might find refuge
from the hot sun of midsummer.
Sometimes, too, only one tree is left,
and if this is blown down or is strucG
by lightning the pasture is shadeless.
One tree is not enough if the cattle
have horns, for one will sometimes
play the boss so successfully as to
make the vicinity very uncomfortable
for weaker cattle, especially if they
be new to the herd.

MUST COIN SOMETHING.

Much has been written and spoken
about Frank Eddy, but the most re-
markable thing about him is the utter
abandon with which he handles the
English language. He coins new
words and repairs and renovates old
ones with such a serene indifference
to established rules as must make
the shade of Noah Webster dizzy

money in the newspaper business we

STARTLING INSTRUMENTATION.

Massachusetts republicans have
declared for tariff revision. Massa-
chusetts is the greatest shoe manu-
featuring state in the union, and all
they ask for by way of revision is
free hides. They want the farmer of
the West to furnish hides at starvation
prices. But the farmers of the West
and Minnesota in particular, will
"think it over" before they endorse
too much revision. Heron Lake News.
The above is a good illustration of
the misinformation that is being
furnished to the people by the "stand
pat" press of this and other states.
The Minnesota farmer does not sell
one hide year on an average. He
markets his stock on the hoof at so
much a pound. Will the editor of
the Heron Lake News inform us how
much more the farmer is getting per
pound for his stock than when hides
were on the free list?

Good. We know few men who would
be benefited by being fumigated over
the pit of hell. If you think that is
strong, just wait until the evangeiists
arrive. Then you will get the hard
facts straight from the shoulder in the
rough, and it will do you good.-St.

Alvah and make him good we will
guarantee money enough to build a
magnificent tabernacle in St. Cloud,
even if they don't land another blamed

HAY FUNERAL AT CLEVELAND
The Ceremonies, ms Was the wish
of the Late Secretary and Mrs.
Hay, Were Very simple.

Cleveland, July 6.-Funeral services
over the BODY of the late Secretary
John Hay were held at II O'Clock in
the chapel of the family church. From
thence the body was taken to Lake
view cemetery for interment.
President Roosevelt and the mem
bers Of the cabinet, who arrived on a
special train, attended, the cabinet
members being honorary pallbearers
The ceremonies, as was the wish o.
the late secretary and of Mrs. Hay
were Of the simplest character. They
were conducted at the chapel by the
famiy's pastor, Rev. Hiram c. Haydn
assisted by Rev Teunie f. Hamlin, OF
Washington, friend Of the family
The body of the late secretary was
taken from the chamber of commerce
at 10 o'clock to the chapel, escorted
by the guard of honor of Troop A Of
the national guard, of which the late
secretary was a former member. Great
crowds lined the streets, but perfect or
der was maintained. Everything at
the chapel was as nearly private as
was possible to make it under the
circumstances.
President Roosevelt and Vice-Presi-
cent Fairbanks attended the remains
to the cemetery, with the members OF
the cabinet.
President Roosevelt left for Oyster
Bay at three O'Clock.
The meeting between he and Mrs.
Hay was dee ply affecting to those who
witnessed it, when the president went
to personally extend his sympathy to
the family in their bereavement.

TO SUCCEED SECRETARY HAY
Hon. EIihu Root Appointed to
and Accepts the OHicc of Sec
retary of State.

Oyster Bay, l.. l., July e.-Official
announcement is made here that Elihu
Root has been appointed secretary of
state.
The following statement was issued.
"Elihu Root has accepted the tender
by the president of the secretaryship of
state. He will take the oath of office
in a couple of weeks, but it will neces-
sarily be some little time before he
aloses his business affairs. He will
not go to Washington permanently un-
til some time in September"
In point of mentality, it is the
opinion that the president has found n
man who can fill the shoes of John
Hay. Mr.. Root made good secretary
of war, proving himself in that func-
tion man of action and quick deci-
sion. He is one of the keenest law
yers In the east AS to politics, he has
always been republican. Like Roose-
welt, however, he has not been in any
sense a machine man.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVORERS

International Convention.
Letter of Regret From Presi-

Baltimore, Md, July 6-The formal
or ing Of the twenty second interna-
tlo., y Christian Endeavor convention
took place Wednesday in Armory hall,
with about 5000 delegates present, and
nearly all the 10000 seats in the vast
auditorium occupied
In the absence of President Clark,
who is detained at home by illness,
Rev. Howard b. Crosse, of New York,
presided. Treasurer Shaw of the united
society read letter from President
Roosevelt, in which the latter expressed
regret at not being able to address the
convention but sent greetings, closing
with the following words.
ITO make better citizens, TO lift up
the standard of American manhood
and womanhood is to do the greatest
service to the country. The stability Of
this government depends upon the in
divldual character of its citizenship
No more important work can be done,
important to the cause of Christianity,
as well as to our national life and
greatness"
The reading of the letter evoked
hearty applause, and the convention
voted unanimously for reply thanking
the president, expressing a wish to join
with him in paying tribute to the mem
ory of the late secretary of state, John
Hay, and asking the president to stop
at Baltimore on his way home, that
he might address them.

JAPAN WOULD NOT CONSENT
China's Request to Be Represented
at the Peace Conference.
Care of Chinn's Interests, for
Which She Has Fought.

Washington, July 10.-China's re-
quest to be represented in the Wash
ington conference on the ground that
she is vitally interested in its pro-
ceedines, has been received by the
president and informally transmitted
to the belligerents. Whether the pres
ident has received the formal replies
can not be learned, but it can be stated
that while Russia is inclined to favor
the suggestion, Japan would not con-
sent TO it.
Japan has already made public her
assurance that Manchura is to be re-
stored to China. That is one Of the
principles for which she says she has
been fighting. Japan regards herself
as fully capable of executing this prom
ise without the assistance of China
and in view of China's inability before
the war to cope with Russia in Man
churia, the Japanese government is un-
able to see what possible service a Chi
nese representative would be in the
Washington conference.
Moreover, the japanese have all
along taken the position that when
peace negotiations were begun they
would be conducted directly with Rus
sia. 1t is altogether unlikely that the
Washington government will press the
claim of China, and the Official view
here fails TO sympathize with the idea
