State Fair.

st. Paul.-From all parts of the state
are coming expressions Of interest IN
the county exhibits at the state fair,
and local associ ations everywhere are
making preparations to enter the COM
petition. Through the liberality OF
the state fair management, SIS, 900 will
be divided among counties making the
best exhibits. This does not include
some 81, 500 divided among $50 odd
classes of individual exhibits of grains
and grasses; S125 offered for farmers
collections. and 1925 offered for exhlb-
it's by market gardeners associations.
None of these exhib bits comes into
competition with the county exhibits
first referred to.
The subway on the state fair grounds
has been so far completed that the
mile track was again put in use after
having been out of surface for nearly
two months. This new subway is q
fine piece of reinforced concrete work
and will be a. great addition to the
comfort and convenience and safety
of visitors to the state fair grounds
When completed it will pass unde:
! both race tracks, giving access to thu
| field inside for carriages and automo
biles SO that the danger Of crossing
the race tracks at grade will be en-
tirely eliminated.

railroads 1S-hour Flyer" the fastest
lOng-distance train in the world ar
rived in this city at $50 o'clock Mon

this feat, extraordinary achievements
in the way of fast running were neces-
sary After leaving Pittsburg the
tender of the big Atlantic type engine,
which had been attached at that city
for the run to Crestline, o., developed
a hot box about 20 miles east of Mans

train and Is minutes were lost in futile
efforts to cool the troublesome axle.
Finally freight engine was attached
and the train limped into Crestline.
Here the regular engine was in wait
ing and when the Flyer" left the lat
ter place it was 26 minutes late. The
run to Fort Wayne, 131 miles away
was made in 1141a minutes. an aver

WEAVER SEES CLEVER TRICK
LETTER TO SHERIFF rs CAUSE
FOR STATEMENT.
Philadelphia Mayor Warns Public
Against Ruse-Crusade to
Be Pushed

Philadelphia June 19.-Mayor Weav-
er Saturday issued a statement bear
ing upon the letter signed by 21 bust
ness men and addressed to Sheriff
Miles, chairman Of the republican city
committee urging the committee to
reform the republican party. The let
ter suggested that new nominations
be made for the fall election.
The mayors statement is as follows:
81 know nothing about this move
ment, neither as to it's origin nor its
purpose. 1t is a trivial interposition
at this time. Some of the gentlemen
whose names appear on the address
am sure cannot have understood the
true significance and the possible eff
feet OF their action.
This injection of paltry politics at
this time is unfortunate. Treating with
the present republican organization
over the question of it's ticket for sher-
if and coroner is a futile and mis-
leading diversion. 1t makes no diff
ference who that organization puts on
it's ticket at this time. This is not a
contest d l.,
| shall not permit it to be reduced to
such lame and impOtent conclusion it
| can help it. Therefore, speak now
and thus strongly in order that the
| true friends of municipal regeneration
and honest government may be on
| their guard against either subtle or
| misleading efforts as would divert the
issue, betray the cause. and possibly
save for further evil the parent source
of All our woes"
The only development of importance
Saturday was the dismissal or 80 en-
| ployes in the bureau of health. George
W. Sunderland assistant director OF
the department Of public health anC
charities. states that the majority OF
the men removed are valuable to the
service.
1t is generally believed that Mayo
Weaver has decided that every mai
who has had any part in the frauds
believed to have been perpetrated upo1

struction of the filtration system, a

That Millions VIII Be Out

CHICAGO. Ill. Sept. e.-"Rockefeller
predicts that the next hard times
crisis will strike this country in 1907-eS,
and that where there were 100000 men
out of work in 1896. there Will be from
100000 TO 100000 in idieness when the

time ago" said Colonel Moore, and
he declared that the Government should

but should legislate TO provide work

Them when the crisis arrives

ON the fact that the overproduction in

are Disraelis to play at politics. 1t is
true; but they are seldom found as
compared to the frequency with
which they are encountered in the
politics of other countries. English
leaders are sometimes, indeed, the
agents of private interests in public
affairs; but not often enough to make
this the rule. as ii seems to be in
the upper ranks of American politi-
clans.
Thoughtful observers have more
than once commented that this great,
Independent leisure class, removed
from the temptations of position and
gain, is the strength of Britain. The
comment of Frenchman who has
reached the same conclusion, and
whose comparison of Britain with
France might readily be used, with a
change of names, as a comparison
between Britain and America. proves
that America Is not the only coun-
try which gets poor service from its
charmed few of the fortunates. So
ciety, frivolity. the passion for adding
more to fortunes already more than
ample, absorb in America the ener-
gies of that class which ought to
correspond TO the sedate, serious. pa
triotic, stHdious upper middle class
of Britain.

Ohio'S Dual Contest.

As the Ohio State campaign de-
veiops 1t becomes apparent that two
distinct yet closely related movements
are going on side by side. One in
wolves State and the other municipal
affairs, the protest against bossism
in both State and cities being inde-
pendent and nonpartisan rather than
strictly political.
Ohio is a State of healthy. pros
porous, growing cities Recently II
has manifested signs OF increasing
unrest over the character of city gov
-rnment it enjoys. The Johnson
movement in Cincinnati was the be-
ginning of the serious realization of
this condition. which has lately been
noted in many other cities. Cincin-
nati's Boss Cox is described as a.
Colossus bestriding the State. Toledo.
Columbus, Dayton, Cincinnati, and
other cities are awakening to condi-
tions such as reused Cleveland some
years ago. 1t is charged that an al
lance of city bosses controls the
State, and against this the Democrats
and Independent Republicans are pro-
testing. The liquor question, which
at the beginning of the State campaign
seemed paramount, is becoming sec
ondary to this new issue of municipal
bossism leagued for State control.
Descriptions of the friendly rela-
tions between party organizations in
the Ohio cities, and of the friendly re-
lations of both organizations with the
public service corporations, read like
leaf from the recent history OF Phil
adelphia, or the less recent history of
