LINCOLN AND HAY.
Secretary of State Honors His
 Great Predecessor.
JEWISH PEOPLE JEWELL MEMORIAL
ulfhu Root at Philadelphia Lsuded the Late Secretary Hay as Kindred Spirit to Mar-
 tyr President

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 8.-Lauded as diplomat who tempered statecraft
 with the Golden Rule, the late John
 Hay was honored by the Jewish peo- pie of this city when a handsome me- morlal window to the dead secretary of state was unveiled at Keneseth Israel temple.
 Attended by Secretary of State Elihu
 Root, Oscar Straus, recently named by President Roosevelt as secretary of commerce and labor, and Andrew D. White, ex-minister to Russia and Ger many, together with six members of the Hay family, the exercises were among the most striking ever held in q Jewish synagogue.
 Among the members of the family present were Mrs. Payne Whitney and MrA James Wadsworth of New York daughters of the late secretary, and Clarence Hay, son.
 Mir. Root, who made the chief ad. 6ress. said:
 During John Hays later years, among the familiar White House scenes of his youth, some incident would evoke a memory of his earlier days, and he would give it to his friends, clad in the felicitous and charming expressions of which he was . master.
 hat hy the door of the old cabinet room he npoke of the dark and dreadful time when Lincoln was bearing the burden and the sorrow of the civil war and feeling his way among innumerable ob- stacles to his great conclusion of the emancipation of the slave. He told how the great president often in the dead of night gained relief from sleep lessness and restlessness by rising and seeking the chamber of his young as. sistant private secretary. Mir. Hay, and, sitting on the edge of the boys bed, reading to him aloud some fa- vorite book. As the story was told by Mir. Hay we could see the tall. gaunt form in white walking down the cor ridor in which he stood and the rug. ged, careworn face seeking sympathy in the thoughts which might lift up his soul above the turmoil of the days of doubts and distress.
 Doubtless the cold words on the printed page lack power to beat back the invading throng of troubling thoughts, and life was given them by the finely sensitive appreciation in the noble and ingenious youth.
 "The instinct of Lincoln's genius d. vined kindred spirit in his young sec retary, and there in the silent watches of the night and in daily companion. ship was nodded and inspired the char acter of our friend.
 He has lived noble life, he has fought the good fight as Lincoln would have wished, and through the long se- ries of the passing years the spirit of the great emancipator, the strongest, l the just. the compassionate, has wrought nightly in the work of his great disciple for justice and mercy. for freedom and peace. for the op- pressed and forsaken of the earth. So In this temple of our God. who hath made all men in his image we unveil . memorial set up in honor of one who also gave his life for his country and

I}s q
Minot was q little slow in waking
up to the fact that division Of the

large number OF transient visitors
during a year. It is . fact that the
location Of the land ONCE In Minot

Of this, has brought thousands Of peo-
pie here to Ale and make final proof
on their lands, and that the establish
ment Of the new district where the
vacant lands are left means greater
blow than H. first realized. But the
land business is a matter of only a
few short years at the longest, and
what 10 lost by the division OF the dis

Minet Means to Secure Her Share and
Prospects Are Bright.
As a convention city Minot now bobs
up as strong and aggressive COM
petitor with Grand Forks and Fargo,
and that she means to get her share is
evidenced by the fact that next year
the Hardware Dealers association, the
Undertakers' association, the Retail
Furniture Dealers association and the
North Dakota and Northern Minnesota
Implement Dealers association are all
scheduled to meet ia this city. That
we have ample hotel facilities was
demonstrated by the manner in which
the large crowds were handled during
the recent Grain Growers convention.
The new Ehr hotel with one hundred
handsomely appointed rooms will be
opened in few days, and still an
other first-class hotel Is to be, built
in the early spring. It is estimated
that fully fifteen hundred people can
be cared for in Minot hotels after the
opening Of the Ehr hotel.

Grow Not Candidate.

Fl C. A. Grow. whose name has been
prominently and persistently men
stioned as the right man for mayor,
announces that under no circum-
stances will he be candidate. He
appreciates the honor his many friends
would confer upon him, but says that
he cannot neglect his business to en-
gage in politics. He realizes that
Minot has reached position Of Inn
iportance where the head executive
must in justice to the taxpayers give
his almost undivided attention to the
affairs Of state" and he cannot do
this and attend to his own business
interests at the same time. Mr.. Grow
could be mayor of Minot If he said
the word and that is a high compile
ment from his fellow citizens.

Minot Public School Notes.

The new high school building is now
nearing completion and the principal
Of the public schools of this city is liv-
ing in happy anticipation of getting
into the new building about March 1.
There are three buildings in the city
where school sessions are held, name
ly, the old high school building, the
North Side school and the temporary
quarters in the. Lutheran church on
First street. In the old high school
the basement Is put into service SO
short are the school authorities for.
rooms. The teachers and scholars are
sorely handicapped because of the
lack of ample quarters. Tables are
brought into use for desks and chA-
dren are put on half time, and other
means are adopted to meet the exigen-
cies. With the completion of the new
building and the occupancy of the
same, all this will be done away with.
Professor Wolfe's report for the
month of January, which has just
been made public shows the enroll
nent for the month to ne EOS, as COM
pared with $50 for the same month of
the preceding year. The report shows
the percentage in attendance to be
81 per cent. This speaks volumes
for the principal. the teachers and par
ents. &sE
On Friday evening of this week,
Harry Randall will give an illustrated
