Richmond News | eader writes:
Representative Swanson spent few
hours in Washington Monday on his
way from one point to another in Vir-
ginia, where he is losing no time in con-
Quoting his campaign for the governor
ship. To the few friends who talked
with him while he WIS here he appeared
exceedingly sanguine as to his prospects
and apparently had no forebodings as to
unsatisfactory results. Friends and adj
mirers of Mr.. Swanson tell him that he
will carry every district in the State I'M
less it is the Eighth, where it is conced-
ed that Mr.. Willard may poll majority
of votes.
Mr.. Swanson's confidence in the out
come has been increased as a result of
reports received by MIN from friends in
different parts of the State and result
of the warm receptions he has received
wherever he has appeared.

THERE Is growing complaint
throughout the city of the noisy and bad

dignity of the city. Property in neigh
borhoods where noisy crowds congrega't
is depreciated in value and the city con-
sequently loses its revenues thereirom
by reason of Iessened taxes, while people
seeking homes shun cities where laws
are violated aud where the dlsOrderly
classes are allowed to do as they please.
There is no excuse for such state OF
affairs in Alexandra Cor the laws gov

those who run may read them. "A few
arrests for the violation OF these laws and
the strict enforcement OF the penalty
therefor would have most s1lutary ef'
feet and such a procedure is at least
worth a trial. That there is sufficient
law ON the statute books to meet all such
cases is shown By the following taken
from the city code:
1t shall be the duty of the policemen
20 bring before the mayor or some justice

The SITUATION in Chicago continues
acute. More strikes are reported and
business is hampered considerably. The
strike leaders say they are endeavOring
to prevent acts of violence, while the
authorities are msrshaling all the pO-

those who would commit overt acts. 1t
is the firm determination of the officials
to call for State troops should the police

RiOting In Warsaw.

Warsaw, May 25.-The fighting which
has been in progress in the Jewish quar-
ter since yesterday was renewed this
morning and there has been more blood
shed. Jewish socialists took the lead
in the outbreaks today, attacking the
thieves, rough characters and others who
infest the quarters. Knives and revolt
vers were used freely by both sides and
it is estimated that at least sixty persons
have been killed or wounded. All the
victims are Jews. The fighting yester-
day lasted until midnight and spread
throughout the entire Jewish quarter.
Street fights have occurred frequently.
Twenty were reported as injured, several
of them being students, who were taken
to hospitals. There has been bitter feel
ing for some time between the better
classes of Jews and the rOwdy element.
The fighting began when an effort was
made TO drive the latter out Of the quar-

Letter to T. A. Groves.

Alexandria. Va.
Dear Sir: A gallon saved is 81 or So
earned. Devoe saves ? or gallons in 10.
How much is it worth gallong
A gallon saved saves the painting too:
and both together cost s. or $50 where
labor is cheap; s. where labor is dear.
Our agents in Bridgeport, Conn, Hubbell
* Wade Co., tell us: There are great many
workingmen's houses here They used TO
paint lead-and-oil and take ten gallons.
Devoe lead-and-zinc, and have had, in every
instance. two gallons returned" The pro-
portion is often higher than that; we have
known it five in ten but that is ex-
ceptonal.
This is the explanations: Devoe is ground
by machinery, and is ground fine lead-and-
oil is mixed by hand. and isn't ground at all.
Yours truly.

LET US MAKE IT A HUMMER
To the Farmers of Morrison County

To the Farmers of Morrison County:
To get up street Fair and havs II
right is not in only making mention
of the fact. We wish to impress upon
the minds of the farmers of Morrison
county the Importance of their co.
operation in making the Great Street
Fair of September 18th and 20th and
21st, 1905, success. The committee
having in charge the work of getting
up the street fair Is composed of
business men whose time is money.
MANY of them subscribed fifty dollars
apiece to be given away in premi-
ums, and then devoted . good deal of
time looking after details, which IL
quite sacrifice, but it ia all done
willingly to make the fair success
and all they ask in return is for the
farmers Of Morrison County to pre-
pare something special for exhibition
at this fair. There is not q thing
in the way of exhibition or enter.
tainment that a citizen of Morrison
county and his family have got to
pay to see; It will be good and abso.
lutely free. There were many street
fairs and carnivals gotten up through
out our state last year and In most
every city fakes Of all kinds were al
lowed upon their streets, but it was
not allowed In Little Falls In 1904
and 1t will not be allowed in 1906.
The business..men Of Little Falls want
to entertain every one In Morrison
County on ..those dates to a royal
good time and IF perchance some
outsider is looking over what We
have we want to be able to show
that our county can produce as good
vegetables, grain, cattle, horses,
sheep, swine, etc., as any county in
the state, which is q fact, and the
farmers knowing at this time. which
is five months In advance, they sure
ly can do their part toward making
the fair success. Thsre will be very
liberal premiums paid for everything
the farmer raises and the premium
list. will be published as soon as posi-
bic. The exhibits Of 1904 were Ane,
but many farmers were heard to say
If had only known It In time
could have beaten. that" ..What ",
wants to Guido 1904 and if--this II
done We will feel entirely repaid TO,
all our time and expense. It is..up t.
you to do your part and start il
