When questioned, Mr.. Romer said
that while the work he was engaged

the main he had never met a nicer
or more liberal minded people than
lived in Nevada in all his forty years
of experience.
In speaking about the construction
work, when it would probably com.

Closing Harriet Concerts.

With but three more nights Of Fam
ciulli and his band at the Lake Harriet
roof garden, the public is taking advan-
tage of the good weather to journey
lakeward in large numbers, and last
nights audience was large and enthusi-
astic. Fanciulli announces two features
that should appeal to the public. Be-
cause he loves children he announces
that children accompanied by their par
ents will be admitted to the roof garden
without charge this afternoon and to-
morrow afternoon. AS request" night
is always one in which the public takes
a personal interest, he has made up the
program for this evening from selections
whose performance has been asked for
by the greatest number Of patrons
Naturally, Max Nickel will have to
play another, and perhaps the last, of his
"four-pa drum solos which so aston
tshed and pleased roof-garden patrons
the opening night. Nappa will have a
cornet solo and Pagano a clarinet solo
but beyond these numbers and Fanci-
ull1s 'Inaugural' march, little will be
known of the selected program until the

KING OSCARS SON MAY RULE

AS an evidence Of the intelligence and
accuracy with which TIL e Jou a rs
staff correspondent has observed and
written of the political situation in Scan
dinavia this summer the following is in
teresting Aug. 3 The Journa l
printed the following, dated July 1S, at
Stockholm:
The candidacy Of Carl, the second son Of
and would be Indignantly denied in Stock
holm. All the same it is believed here
that King Oscar secretly desires to put
his stalwart son on the Norwegian throne
sRfu1 to nf that end earaS wo1 oS
never do for him to put himself In the
position of openly pushing his son as a
candidate: On the contrary, It is neees-
sary to appear rather coy in the matter.
Perhaps you noticed that In one of his
most recent interviews, the king declared
that he would never, no, never consent
to have a prince of his house take the
throne of country that had insulted him
as Norway had. To do So he pointed out,
would be to subject the prince to similar
insults from the storthing. Then he
only condition under which he would even
give the matter any consideration what
ever, was that the Swedish rilxsdag should
request him to do So. In Its present TEN
per- pc - no o one expects the Swedish riksdag
pretty good politician himself, and it need
surprise no one If at the psychological
moment Carl Of Sweden is found to be a
receptive candidate for the throne.
Today the Associated Press confirms
this forecast in the following cablegram
| from Stockholm:
According to good authority, the feeling
| IN government circles regarding the acces-
sion by Bernadotte prince to the Nor
wegfan throne has undergone com
plete change. King Oscar no longer OPP
poses the acceptance Of the crown by his

positive cure for consumption.
Results covering many months of ex.

complete cures in every instance. Eleven

The history will be found to have an
interest for people far beyond the Dor
ders Of the county. 1t contains much
of value to all Minnesotans. For ex-
ample, there are several chapters de-
voted to the Indian massacre of 1862.
The story of the bloody conflict Of the
tiers, as told in this new history of
Kandiyohi county is graphic, and in
places even thrilling, and shows the dew
ilish barbarity with which the Indians
sought to drive the whites from the
newly settled territory. For instance,
take the following brief extract from
the narrative Of the flight of party
from Green Lake, in the course Of
which one Lorentson and a companion
named Backlund were killed:
Afterward they (the Indians), took the
skin from the entire face and from part
of Lorentsons head, including both ears.
Then they cut the heads off both corpses
and set them up with their hats on. Mr..
Backlund's right hand was cut off and
between the thumb and forefnger was
placed a pinch Of snuff, while his snuff
box was set near his face. Progoing up
the discovered members SO as to retain
these positions, the savages left them.
The aim Of the history, however, has
not been to pick out sensational fea.
lures, but, as the compilers say, etc
present clear and faithful picture of
con ditions past and present. withou.

The South Carolina Dispensary

Senator Tillma'n' of South Carolina is
in the midst of another battle over his
dispensary law for.the regulation of the
liquor traffic. Since 1892, when the
law was passed as substitute for a
prohibition act, which had the actual
support of the state, the dispensary
statute has been the center Of a tremen-
dous fire Of opposition and has stood
only thru the exertions Of Tillman, in
it's behalf. - go.

liquor traffic would have been declared
illegal long ago. The rural community
has never been reconciled to the f<un-
holy traffic. in liquors by the state,
and in the present campaign two-thirds
of the counties are expected to de-
clare in favor Of local prohibition. Till
man admits the defeat Of the dispenary
system, but maintains that the demo
cratic party should declare for state
prohibition instead of remanding the
question to local option.
The dispensary system has amelio-
rated, but not solved, the drink
problem in South Carolina. 1t has
made the state partner in a growing
traffic which majority Of the people
regard as injurious. 1t was heralded
as great revenue producer, but in this
respect it has failed to make good the
promise Of it's supporters. The coun
ties and towns have never realized
more than one-third Of the revenue they
would have obtained from a high
license system. --.. ...,.; .. .4
The third and most irritating objec
