TAFT NOT A CANDIDATE.
Man Of Lid Fame Would, However
Accept IL Nominated.

Washington, Oct. 26-Secretary Taft
is not a candidate for the presidency
and will not make a canvass for the
greatest prize in American politics. He
will not retire from the cabinet, but
will remain to continue the work he has
undertaken in developing the Philippine
islands and of constructing the Panama
canal.
An authoritative statement to this eff
feet was obtained from the secretary
of war. When questioned concerning
a story that he would retire form the
cabinet within a year, he without hesi-
tation or equivoeation said:
Il will stay in the cabinet as long as
/ can. l have no intention of making
campaign for the presidency"
While Secretary Taft is not an avow
ed candidate for the presidency, he is
il receptive mood and would not re-
fuse the nomination if it should be
given him. He will not inaugurate
campaign, but proposes to devote all of
his time to the great projects, the Pana-
ma canal and the Philippine question,
with which the war department has to
deal

POsTOFFICE FIGHT is ON.
Factions in Granada are Making
Things Decidedly Interesting.

from lnuTSuay y Daliy-
There is a postoffice fight on at
Granada. Postmaster Boudrye is going
to resign. AS is customary in such
cases made and provided the retiring
postmaster insists on his prerogative to
name his successor. E. p. Older and a
number of other partly leaders, it is
said, stood up and did object. They un-
reservedly gave Congressman McCleary
to understand exactly whom and what
they wanted, says The Fairmont SEN
tinel.
If we are correctly informed our con-
gresham promised his endorsement to
the candidate of the insurgents or anti
Boudrye faction, which in this district
is as good as an appointment. The man
agreed upon is F. r. Field, and The
Sentinel stands ready to bet years
subscription, with Farm, Stock and
Home thrown in, that he will be Gran
ada's next Nesby.
Mr.. Field is the senior member of the
hardware firm of Field & Boston, is a
good business man is honest and able,
has fine educational qualifications and
will make an ideal postmaster.

Being Investigated.

FROM THURSDAY Ddlly.
Postoffiee Inspector Smith has been
boxing into the affairs of the Garden
,ity postoffice for several days, and has
lot yet concluded his labors. He has re-
eived complaints from certain residents
here that Postmaster Church, who is
quite an old gentleman, is little slow
n the transaction of the business of the
,lfice, and some want a change. 1t APP
ears that the postmaster is about six
weight years old, but has the assist
,nce at least part of the time of his
laughter. He has many friends, who are
standing by him.
From one source it is learned that the
postmaster is not very fond of writ
ng postal money orders, that in fact 1t
s quite task for him to do it, and
hat patrons have been obliged to wait
While he gave vent to his feelings when
sked to write the orders. Another COM
laint is that when he is cleaning
amp or doing some other work he forces
he patrons of the offiae to wait until
le completes his work before he will
i've them their mail. These stories may
,e the inventions of his enemies, If he
las any, or they may have been spread
or the purpose of helping somebody else
ret the office. Inspector Smith will silt
he matter down, but what recommen-
ations he makes to the department will
We strictly confidential and no one will
e any the wiser for it until the depart
nents sees fit to act.
Congressman McCleary declines to
ay anything about the matter, and IS
lot Quitting in"

Nnd Of Weather That He Promises
For November.

rom Thursdays Daily.
Rev. Irl Hicks. in his weather predic-
IN for the month of November, states
at the first storm period is central on
e 9th, extending from the 9TH to 9th.
lie last storm period OF October will
1T have wholly subsidized before the LIST
End of November, after which will
me two to tour days of cold, fair and
l .osty weather. Then the barometer
will begin falling in the west, with
change to cloudy and warmer. Autumn
nal rains, probably ending in snow, will
pass eastwardly over the country during
the 9th, 9TH and Sth. Change to cooling,
clearer weather will follow.
reactionary storm period will be
central on the 18th and 18th. There
will be change to warmer, southerly

freezing weather at night, will follow

and gales may be expected, and No
vember cold wave will follow.
The fourth storm period is central on
the 22nd and 23rd, about which dates
general storms will be in progress from

St. James Man Would Secure a Place

4 SNay bhliSs
The second district is going to ask
for something next year, declares The
Minneapolis Journal. In addition to the
possibility of Somerville coming out fol-
governor and the probable candidacy OF
Gustaf Widell for secretary of state
second district man is likely to gel
in the race for lieutenant governor. Sen
ator Thomas Torson of st. James is the
man. Torson is a veteran legislator,
having served four terms in the house
previous TO his term in the senate, and
he has given out that he will not ask
for another term. He would like, how
ever, to hold the gavel for while, and
is looking over the situation with view
to asking the second districts support.
The office of lieutenant governor has
not been bone of contention in re-
cent years. 1t came easy to Lyndon A.
Smith in 1898, and second term was
granted him without opposition in the
convention. Ray w. Jones had no op-
ponent in either convention. Next year,
however, there may be pretty little
contest. w. A. Nolan of Grand Mea-
dow has his eve on the office and other
candidates are likely to come up. The
lieutenant governorship is not much OF
I place as far as revenue and patron
,ge are concerned, and for that reason 1t
S hard to get delegates TO make bid
or it on behalf of county or district.
It is, however, highly important posi-
ion, almost as much so as speaker OF
The house, and the man who holds the
,avel over the senate is in position to
help or hinder legislation to great de-
.ree. Members of the legislature are
fully aware of the Importance of the Of
fee, much as it is sighted by outsiders.
There has been some talk of nominal
ing a Hennepin man to succeed Ray
Jones. w. W. Heffelfinger and L. l..
Smith have been suggested. Two other
Eighth warders, Lawrence johnson and
CARLETON l.. Wallace, have been talked
If for the place of friends in the legis-
ature. Local sentiment. however, Is
opposed to asking for the lieutenant
Governor 1t is considered better poll
les to wait until something worth while

ST. PETERS FIRST BORN.
Willis r. Dodd, Son of Captain w. g.
Dodd, New Uim Hero.

From Thursdays Daily.
Born in st. Peter, the first white child
to see the light of day when that city
was located, yet never having been to
New Ulm, Willis r. Dodd, son of Cap
tain w. b. Dodd, killed by the Indians
during the seige of this city, came here
Friday to view the place as near as
could be located where his distinguished
father met his death, says The New
Tim Review.
He arrived here at noon and was tax
Ell in charge by Mr.. Rudolph who rec
ognized him at once from his likeness
to his father, whom the old gentleman
remembers well, and the two went ia
he spot near the present residence OF
los. Eckstein where the venturesome
iptain was slain by the Indians. Mr.
)odd is at present resident of Cali
Jornia having gone there some twenty
five years ago and is engaged in min
ing engineering. He was accompanied
10 this city by his niece, Miss Lander
ion.
The story of the death OF his father
very dramatic When the attack was
made on the lower part of the city, by
.he Indians in their attempt to surround
The place, the. wind was favoring them
nd the smoke from the burning build
ugs was carried in advance of them
Uer large part of the city.
The citizen soldiers in the city at that
me were constantly expecting rein
.,rcements from the east and expected
them to enter the city from that
quarter, so seeing a movement in that
locality and thinking the reinforeements
would need assistance to force the In
dian line Captain Dodd and a few men
made superhuman attempt to reach
them and help them effect an entrance
into the city.
He had gone about seventy-hve yards
outside the lines, when the Indians
from buildings on either side of the
street poured full volley into the
horse and rider. The captain received
three balls near the heart, but was able
to reach the safety within the line of his
friends through the intelligence OF his
horse which wheeled and bearing its
rider to safety, fell dead. Captain
Dodd was assisted to walk into house
nearby where he died in few moments.
He was brave and generous man
and is remembered by all who were here
at the time of his death, from the trag-
ic manner in which he met it and his
spectacular ride into the very midst OF
the enemy at the risk of his life to as
sist what he supposed to be his friends.
