A Young Mother at 70.

had IN the prime Of life," writes Mrs.

brave upon the soil they fought to

The spirit Of heroes was we'll de-
fined by the interview Of Mrs. Ma
loney and Mrs. Mccarthy, the latter
saluting with "How about your ped
igree.' The former responds, "What

reply. ''That's them what you sprang
from,'' was the retort. To which
came this consoling rejoinder: SID

They endured every hardship to

Their principles would protect even
the birds from the despoiler's hands.
The Master created them to ele-

your Fathers notice. ,"

Water Party.


Water Party.
from Thursdays Daily.
Mayor Jones welcomed the prohibition
delegates to Minneapolis in speech
which bristled with temperance senti-
lnents. After telling the delegates that
Minneapolis is the prettiest city Oh
earth and relating its many other at
tractive features, the mayor referred to
his policy, and said that there were some
other prohibitions that he believed in.
Il believe the day has come when GER
.ain other things can be set aside.
lon't believe we need the gambler. He's
vampire, an unnecessary evil. He
should be placed in contagious ward
and kept there if possible, for he certain
ly has a contagious disease.
''The day has come, / say, when there
shall not be one special privilege to the
saloonkeeper. Thank God, the special
privilege day is thing of the past"
The mayor gave statistics relative to
drunkenness. On Sundays for three
months prior to the Sunday closing, Sun
lay drunks numbered 100. For three
months of Sunday closing the Sunday
trunks numbered but thirty.
II am not temperance lecturer y
said the mayor. Slut L believe in try
ing to touch the highest standard of cit
izenship the public will stand for, per-
haps to have the standard higher than
the average citizen demands, that he
may have something little better to
reach upward and struggle for. L have
profounder respect every day for the
average intelligence of the public. New

and they will stand for that which is
right.
"The liquor traffic should be separ-
tied from all politics. 1t has contrib

is the price of its own freedom. And
unless the liquor dealers cease to con-

saloon will be wiped off the face of the

Jones be received into full connection

BACK FROM +: ! MEXICO
Manager Of Sleepy Eye Com
pany Returns TO Stay.
From Saturdays Daily.

From Saturdays Daily.
w. n. Klein was III the city this fore
noon between trains, on his way to his
home at Sleepy Eye from Guerrero, in
Old Mexico, where he has lived the past
eight months. He has been manager for
the Acapulco Land company, which is
composed mainly of Sleepy Eye men,
but of which John A. White of this city
is member. Mr. Klein is coming home
to stay, owing to the facilitating effects
of the climate along the sea coast.
The Acapulco Land company owns a
10000 acre stock ranch sixty miles in
from Acapulco, and about l25 miles
southwest of Mexico City, and 400 miles
north of Panama. The ranch is situated
at an elevation of 1920 feet, and the
country there is very healthful, Nlt the
manager of the company has to be at
Acapulco more or less, and there the
deadly malaria RACES. He picked out a
manager to succeed himself from among
the natives-a man who has American
blood in his veins and can stand the eli
mate. The poems look up to anyone who
has American blood, and the latter are
of a higher intelligence and make good
managers.
Mr.. Klein states that the company
cannot help but make money as the
country is an ideal one for stock rails
ing and the peon labor costs but eigh-
teen cents, a day, American money, or
thirty-seven cents Mexican money. The
poems are good workers, although slow.
1t is necessary to be firm and kind to
them, and they will do well.
There are no wagon roads Ill that
part of the country, not to mention
railroads, and all transportation IS done
on mule back. A copper mine was re-
Gently opened near the ranch, and hun
dreds of tons of machinery for the mill
was transported upon the backs of hum
dreds of burros. The huge metal casts,
weighing many hundred pounds, came
cut into 200 to 300 pound pieces, with
rivet holes, so that they could be bolted
together after reaching the mine.
Acapulco has splendid harbor. en-
circled nearly all the way around with
high land, so that ships inside do not
suffer from storms. 1t is the one coal
ing place for steamers and war vessels
between Panama and San Diego, Cal,
and at almost all times there are sew

were on one of the warships there. Inc
city is located where it is so shut III and
hot that the government cut an opening
through the mountains for the breeze TO
come down from the higher lands, and
that is the only fresh air that is had,
and if it was not for this the lnhaol-
tants could not stand it. The American
consul cannot remain in the city long
at time.
There are very few mosquitoes. The
