interesting to know what, percentage
of them, while living in the city, had

the Salvation Army calls the sslums.
Unfortunately, the statistics which
the army presents throw absolutely no
light on the important question as to
how, far. incompetent persons can be
helped by the. farm colony plan. The

WHEELOCK ONCE
A MINNEAPOLITAN
VETERAN EDITOR IN EARLY DAYS
WORKED IN ST. ANTHONY.
Position Required Trading in Whisky,
y However, and He Rebelled, Giving
Up His Position and Returning to st.
& Paul, Where He Permanently Settled.

Joseph A. Wheelock, the veteran edi-
tor Of the Pioneer, Press, whose death
Is mourned by the entire state, at one
time hoped to locate in St. Anthony, in
which event his life and valuable serv-
ices would have been devoted to Min
5neapolls instead of st. Paul. The man
ner in which he was lost to this city
is told by Charles M Loring, who was
an intimate friend Of Mr.. Wheelock for
forty-slx years.
When Mr.. Wheelock reached this part
OF the world he was without means. He
could find no employment in ST. Paul
or vicinity. and at the suggestion of
George Chowen. afterward register Of
deeds for Hennepin county, he and Mr..
ChoWen came to St. Anthony, where Mr..
%Chowen, had the promise Of a position
IN the general store Of Taft, Reynolds
& Co.. When the young men reached
the village the position was still open.
Mr.: Chowen had little money, but
young Wheelock was without means of
any kind, and Mr.. Chowen thereupon
magnanimo!usly offered the place to his
friend, saying:
You need the place much more than
L 40 and want to look around little
more before settling down.
Young Wheelock was duly grateful,
In the early days one Of the staple
articles Of trade was whisky It was
as much a part Of the business to meas
ure. out whisky as to deal in molasses
and: kerosene. The new clerk was not
long in discovering that the duties of
a clerk in q general store ran contrary
to his well-established principles. He
went at once to one Of the proprietors
and asked:: t&<:- E'5,'f -.
/ fam I supposed to deal out this
stuff9" pointing to- the barrels of
liquor. So =a@'
"Why, certainly. You'll have to dc
the :5;.s same n, as the rest of the clerks, re:
new clerk IN Surprise. 1
"Then'I can It stay here,' declared
Wheelock, and he put on his coat and
returned to St. Paul. -.

Minneapolis retailers, Il thru the Min.

passed by the last Legislature ! and is
to come up for ratification by the peo-
pie at the polls. The system proposed
is believed to be far more equitable
than the present system. 1t is gen
orally favored, tho there is opposition
to certain features of the proposed
amendment To carry, it! will be- neces-
sary fortit to receive q, majority Of all
votes cast and those interested in it's
do no harm and make the passage

I The Retailers association has had
the amendment up for consideration
and generally .indorses it. "A similar
condition exists in, Ohio, where a wide.
open amendment will be voted on next
fall. the present conditions and the
proposed amendment being almost iden-
tical in Ohio and Minnesota. Copies
of pamphlets used in. Ohio have fbeen
received and found 50 convincing that
5000 copies will hbe secured for distri
button among influential men in Mime
sofa.
The association also plans to enlarge
the scope Of it's work locally by increas.
ing the membership to include many
merchants not now affiliated. Since it
has been organized theyassociation has
proved most effective and with the as
sistance Of other business interests has
secured much Of value for the city and
its business interests. At the next
meeting twenty merchants will be pre-
sented for membership.

Miss Corwin Talks on Mexico.


Sioux Falls Argus-Leader: The
pupils Of the advanced grades Of the
Whittier school were given a treat
this morning when during the first
hour they were addressed by Miss
Madge Corwin ,teacher in the seventh
and eighth grades at the building.
Miss Corwin took Old Mexico as her
subject and she not only talked from
personal observation made while
touring that country but she also H.
Illustrated her talk with pictures and
eurios from that country which
ADDED much to the address. Miss
Corwin has a brother-in-law who is a
professor in n of the large educa-
tional institutions in Mexico and has
has gathered and sent to his sister a
number Of curios and Illustrations
together With two native costumes
one for a man and the other for a
woman. These costumes were placed
on two Of the pupils and they we're
In evidence during the address.
After the.talk the scholars were al
lowed to thoroughly inspect all the
curios and illustrations.
The address was highly instru. tive
and was greatly enjoyed by the pupils
who are now hungry for another
talk on this or similar subjects by
Miss Corwin.

IN RURAL ROUTE
No. 8, Running South, is Extended
Two Miles and Twelve New
Families Accommodated

Postmaster Bras has been in cor
respondence with the postof1ce de-
partment relative to q change that
was desirable on rural route, No. 3,
which runs southwest of this CITY,.
He got a reply from the department
yesterday in which was stated that
the desired change was granted.
Instead of running north from the
southeast corner Of section SO, Beu-
lah township, to the southwest
corner of %, the route is changed
as follows: Beginning at the south
west corner of section "a, the carrier
will go west one mile, north two
miles, then east one mile, connecting
with the old route and coming on
into Mitchell. The change In the
route takes in sections % and SO in
Beulah township, and adds two miles
to the journey Of the carrier. Twelve
new families are thus added to the
route and they will receive the bene-
fit Of the change. and are added to
the Mitchell territory.
MI. Bras is also figuring on a
change in the route which runs
northeast of this city so as to bring
more families on the route, which can
be accomplished by changing the
line of travel a little and add per-
haps ten families to the route.
