How to Keep Up Prices.

The farmers of Kansas are urging
that if the male shirt were heightened
one inch the slack in the cotton crop
would be taken up without difficulty.
There is no doubt about this any more
than there is that the proper place to
charge up the etfervescence of the cot
ton crop is upon the consumer. The cot
ton crop is long, the price threatens to
come down; make the man on salary
wear longer shirt at longer price and
the country is saved.
The cotton crop is not the only one
which may be thus regulated. There is
great surplus Of wheat. The farmer
doesn It know what to do with it. It
filters up his granary and refuses to
take itself off. The elevator man Of
fers nothing for it, The country is
on the verge of ruin. Up jumps a
genius and DEGREES that every man,
woman and child shall eat two bowls of
you-must- have wheat-um instead of one,
and prosperity is preserved. Any time
we are long on iron no doubt the build

Lake Superior as Water: Supply.

To the Editor of The Journal, 4
About every so often some one will
rush into print about bringing the water
from Lake Superior to this city to supply
our city water system. I have often
wondered how he was going to get it
here. Will he bring it in tank cars, or
via pipeline, with a system of pumps
with .whicht to raise it from the low level
of Lake superior, to the high ground on
which the reservoir is situated?
Every schoolboy knows, or: ought to
know, that the surface of the river under
the steel arch bridge in this city, Is eigh-
| ty-nine feet higher than the surface OF
| the water in Lake. Superior.
| 1 expect we will keep right on USING

purposes: and those that are able viii

have it for. sale. IS. E. Chandler.

Minnesota Politics


ISL Whdle working on the selection Of "a
state committee, the candidates on the
state ticket are also working out the prob
lem OF how the committee shall be organ
lied. There are two schemes for which
there Is precedent. Under the old sys-
tenn Of organization the chairman was the
whole thing. The executive committee
served an advisory purpose, and the rest
Of the members were seldom called on.
More recently the executive committee
has gained in importance. In the 1900
campaign the chairman Of the executive
committee was the real director of the
campaign. In 1902 Robert Jamison was
chairman Of the state committee, and
James A. Martin of the executive com
mittee. The two were co-managers OF
the campaign. Two years ago Condo
Hamlin was chairman of the committee,
but Martin was really In charge.
This year it is likely that the man
chosen for chairman of the state com
mittee will not give his whole time to
the campaign. He will be some one of
the Sam Lord type, widely known and a
guarantee of clean politics, but without
some of the practical accomplishments
needed in campaign director. The can
didates have practically agreed to have
an executive committee with its chair
man, who will have actual charge Of the
detailed work Of Organization and direc-
ton OF the campaign There are several
names under consideration, and they will
not be made public Until the man agreed
on has agreed to serve James A. Mar
tin and W. e. Culkin; are among those
mentioned. &sl3G - .-

General Gustav Widell of Mankato has
resigned from Governor Johnson's staff,
for the reason that he expects to give
active support to the republican candi-
date this year, and does not think he
ought to retain a place in the present
governors official family. His action has
given rise to the talk that Widell may
manage the state campaign. That is
without foundation: General Widell has
served on state committees before, but
has never worked in an executive capac-
ity, and he is now completely engrossed
in business, which he could not afford to
leave for politics. VT l.. .l| %.->' . .

ROUTED BY ELEPHANTS.

How q Circus Man Used Big Guards
to Evade Arrest.
The best act Of the circus which per.
formed at Rumford Falls, Me-, the 9TH
er night was presented to a select
crowd of villagers who waited until
after the show to see the tents come
down, says q special dispatch from
Rumford Falls to the New York World.
The elephant man was guiding his
cavaIcade of seven pachyderms down
the main street to the railroad station
when two countrymen drove past and
began to taunt him and call him
names. The elephant keeper kept his
temper as long as he could and then
laid open the scalp Of one Of his tor
mentors with his goad stick.
The counrymen called for the police,
and Officer Frank Brooks arrived. The
driver of the elephants was ready for
him. He said In an undertone to his
animals, ''Tails!'
The big creatures quickly closed
around him in circle which could not
be easily penetrated. Then to the big
gest elephant the driver said, Look
out for that man. And, the anger Of
the elephant being kindled, he charged
on the officer, who was only too glad
to take to his heels. The mischievous
driver let the animal pursue the fleeing
officer. to the great amusement Of the
crowd, until he saw that the mans
breath began to fail him; then he
called a halt. and the cavalcade pro-
eeeded TO the station.
