Communications from Minnesota.

Clearwater, Minn., July "a, 1905.
To CREsCo FRIENDs:-
Clearwater is booming; not great,
big, noisy boom, but lust taking in
everything that comes along. Two
years ago 1t was struck by Pumpkin
Syrup Factory which proved a mag.
niticent failure. Itstarted as boom
but turned out to be boomerang
and soon collapsed. But now we
have the real thing in the shape OF a
canning factory; it is under the control
of the Minnesota Canneries Co., In
corporated with capital stock of
800, 900. The Clearwater factory is
one OF five operated by this company.
John S. Hughes, of Minneapolis, is
the moving spirit OF the company,
Emil Pratt, OF Clearwater, looks after
the cooking OF the peas at the rate of
5000 cans per day, d. D. Storms, with
9 crew of men and six teams is in the
field furnishing the raw material for
the factory. Besides these, there are
about 40 persons employed in the
factory at cost of about 800 per
day. The factory is equipped with
the latestimproved machinery capable
OF turning out 10000 cans per day.
Peas are now put up at the rate OF
LOCO cans per day. 1t is expected that
this product will keep the plant busy
for about 30 days. The next principal
thing to be canned is sweet corn of
which there isagoodly supply in sight.
Cabbage and number Of other veget-
ables will also be canned. Crops are
looking fine and the prospects are for
q large crop. JOHN MILF.

GEN. OATES AT TROY
CANDIDATE FOR ALTERNATE SEN-
 ATOR DELIVERS ADDRESS.
Discussion of the Railway Rate Prob lem on a BreadeF Plane Than Voters of Pike Had Heard
 Before.

Troy, Ala, March 12.-(SpeciaL)- General William c. Oates addressed a large audience in the court house and his remarks were enthusiastically re- ceived. He was born in Pike-that part of which was cut off to Bullock when that county was formed. He spoke of his boyhood days in the coun- ty in a manner which met the ap- proval of his audience. He described amusingIy his candidacy for alternate United States Senator, and said that 1t was not an office, but was of new creation by nomination for a possible contingency, practically designation for pail bearer.
 He discussed the railroad question on a broader scale than the people had heard it discussed. He went to the massage of Congress of the interstate commerce bill which was intended to remedy certain abuses of the railroads, such as pooling, rebates and charging more for a short haul than large one He spoke and voted against the bill on the ground that it would not accomplish what was claimed for it. because 1t would destroy competition and make freights and passenger rates higher than they then were, and his prediction proved true. He also pre- dicted that the greater and more pow erful lines of railway would swallow m the smaller to prevent competition and in this the attempt at reform was socialism and destructive of fair com netition. And his greatest objection to the bill then was that it was ex- nerimental-an expensive disappoint- ing experiment. And that it was only advisory and gave the commission no

There never were & better, more honest, in- dustrious, law abiding and patriotic people than those of Alabama. He said that no man could say that when ever he had represented them in any capacity, that he did not do it faith fully, and to the best of his ability
 That in the last Constitutional Conven- tion the late Hon. Joel D. Murphree had a seat along side of him and that they were in accord on this great ques- tion. That when the committee on rail- roads made it's report on the free pass question, he had prepared and tried to offer a substitute requiring the roads to give passes to Legislators, Judges and Executive officers, when travelling on official duty, which would have set tied that question equitably for ever, but the chair would not recognize him.
 He said that the people of the Third District and of the entire State had honored him and that he was profound Iy grateful for their confidence That the only political ambition he now has. and has had ever since he served out his term as Governor is to serve. the people as Senator of the United States before he gets too old--that if his life was spared until he reached the age of eighty years he would not accept of any office if rendered him. He said that he believed himself qualified by experience to render efficient service to the people.

Louisville. Ky. March 12.-Fearing that a temporary injunction would be sworn out by members of the Civic League, the Louisville Tournament Association today decided to omit from the American Bowling Congress schedule the Sunday games arranged for March IS and 2s.

MONTGOMERY YOUTHS ARE AR

Luther Hainey and John Fleeman Who Went South In q Huge Piece Of Iron Pipe On a Flat
 Car,
Advertiser Bureau,

MODlles MdECu lSs
 From Montgomery there arrived in Mobile at an early hour this morning two travellers, not riding as wealthy genuine specimens of the Genus Hobo" concealed in a huge piece of iron pipe on a flat car. The car was one of many of a Louisville and Nash vile freight train. The yravllers were discovered by Oflcer Connolly of the police department and by him taken to police headquarters.
 The two were aged respectively twelve and eleven years of age. They were neatly clad and of good appear ance. but absolutely penniless. They gave their names as Luther Hainey and John FIeeman. The first named is a son of Policeman c. w. Hainey and the latter a son of J. W. Fleeman, a tailor. both of Montgomery.
 When seen by The Advertiser cor respondent Master Luther Hainey acted as spokesman and talked freely of their escapade. Both responded readily when asked their names and those of their parents. Master Hainey said that yesterday morning he and Flee man reached the conclusion that they would come South. A freight train was close by and, seeing a large piece of iron pipe on a flat car, they climbed on the car and secreted themselves in the pipe. During the day and night, said Hainey, men popped" their heads In the pipe. but failed to discover them. Chief of Police Rondeau promptly mo- tified Chief Taylor of Montgomery of the apprehension and detention of the youngsters and they will be returned to their parents.

power to enforce their decisions. In illustration he explained the case of Troy.
 He paid a glowing tribute to the memory of the late Hon. Joel D. Mur- phree, who with others obtained the speakers services to lay the just com plaints of Troy business men before the Interstate Commerce Commission showing most damaging discrimina- tions against the people of Troy and of Pike County, and the commission decided that the railroads should change their course of treatment and their discriminations and ceace charg- ing more for Phosphates from South ern Georgia and South Carolina to Troy than to Montgomery, 51 miles further and similar discriminations on other classes of freight
 The railroads refused to obey the decision" he said. T induced the com mission to bring suit in the United States Court to enforce 1t. argued the case for Troy few days after was in augurated Governor, and Baxter of Nashville, a railroad lawyer argued for the roads and induced Judge Bruce to decide for them, and sustained on the tition, when in fact that should have cut no figure in the case
 He said that were he in the Senate today he would vote for the Hepburn bill or some measure to give the in- terstate commerce commission power to inforce their decisions and give the people proper protection against un- just rates and discriminations, and if a member of the State Legislature he would do the same thing regarding in- ternal State traffick. (Applause). He ha 6a- velopers of internal wealth and as such he was proud of them and desired that they should make money by reas- enable charges for all they do, but he was utterly hostile to overcharges and unjust discrimination, rebates and making Alabamians pay higher for the same service than the people of ad-

It required over one hundred years or effort to obtain from Congress the French spoilation claims, no more just than the cotton tax, at last they ob- tained their money.
