TRIBUTE TO UNCLE SAM.
Lascars of the Mediterranean Offer
Sacrifice on Beholding Dry
Dock "Dewey." =.

The Lascar crew Of the British
steamship 1mogen, when on the Med
iterranean recently, were filled with
awe at seeing directly in their path
tie big dry dock Dewey and the fotil-
la OF steam vessels which is towing it
around to Manila. AS soon as the
huge mass doomed up, with the three
golfers strung out ahead and the
cruiser Tacoma and the little tender
putting alongside, the Lascars set up a
chorus of excited chattering. It was
with difficulty that their sarang, Abdul
Ben Hamar, Quilted their fears and ex-
planned to them what the monster was.
Having mastered the facts and alb
sorbed an appreciation of the prodigi-
GUS undertaking, they demanded that
sheep be killed Tor them, that they
might celebrate with feasting and re-
ligious rites their admiration of Uncle
Sam and MS greatness. This IS a habit
with the Lascars. Every unusual &C.
currence at sea is the signal for them
to demand fresh mutton. The sheep
IS turned over to them alive and is
killed by the sarang with much cere-
mony, after which it is cooked and
eaten. certain choice portions being
thrown overheard to appease the de-
mons of the deep. +.

WIS.,, coRREcTs STATEMENT!
ON GRAIN STATISTICS.
FORMER FIGURES EA-l5 CT SEN.
SATiCNAL SPEECH BY SEN.
ATOR p. J, M'CUME--2.
IBy Chas. H. Thorntc1)

When the Hon. P. J. McCumber.
United States senator from North d.
kota, in the course Of a speech made
In the United States senate on March
30, 1904, said that 26,OOD,0O bushels,
IN round numbers, more grain was
shipped from Duluth Superior than
was received during the period Of ten
years ending Sept /, 1902, he quail
fed the statement by SAYING that he
was not speaking with personal
knowledge, but was quoting from an
article in the Superior Evening Tele.
gram of May 2, 1903. written by H. G..
Stivers, and had never verified the
figures by an examination of the rec
'ords. although such records are open
to inspection at all times.
In a personal letter to the writer
stivers stated that the basis of his
article In the Superior Evening Tele-
gram was some figures compiled by
F. R. Crumpton of Superior, and which
were used by him (Stivers) without
verifying them in detail. 1t appears,
therefore, that the basis of all these
figures Is the compilation made by
Frank R. Crumpton of Superior, who
has lately again gone into the matter,
and is now satisfied that his original
figures were incorrect, and has made
an affidavit, retracting all of his for
mer figures, said affidavit in sub
stance being as follows:
That he is the same Frank R.
Crumpton who, at the sessions Of the
Wisconsin legislature in the winter
of 1923, used in arguments and con-
versations with members of the Wis.
consin legislature and in private cor
respondence the statement that dur
ing the ten years from Sept 1, 1892,
to Sept. l, 1902, 26,014,00O bushels
more of wheat had been reported as
shipped or manufactured into flour,
from Duluth and Superior, than had
been received, and that this state
ment was made in support of a bill
then pending before the Wisconsin
legislature providing for the establish
ment of Wisconsin inspection, and
that so far as he knows he is the only
person who ever made. or used. or
Warren sheaf. [volume] (Warren, Marshall County, Minn.) 1880-current, 1906-06-21

testified to such shortage of grain
That since that time said Crumpton
has examined into the matter more
carefully and has made use of all
available statistics of the grain move
ment through the port of Duluth-Su-
perior and now knows that the orig
lnal computation made by him was
not true or correct statement. That
the error in his original computation
was due partly to clerical error by
himself. partly TO not having taken
note. to the grain in store at the be-
ginning and end of the period men
toned. and largely to the fact that
during the first three years of the
period mentioned he failed to account
for 30,6s6,000 bushels of wheat re-
ceived directly by the mills and not
included in the official figures of re-
ceipts, but he did figure the -four
made from this wheat into his total
shipments. He made a further error,
against his own theory of an excess OF
shipments over receipts, by failing to
take into account the dockage on 224,
100000 bushels of wheat, amounting
to 4,671,000 bushels, which almost ex-
actly accounts for the difference be-
tween his two principal errors, above
noted. The af1ant Crumpton con-
cludes his affidavit by saying that after
a careful and painstaking examina.
ton. In the light of this later and
complete information, he Is now con
vinced that, during the said period Of
ten years ending Sept. I, 1902, there
was no excess of shipments of grain
Lakes over receipts Of grain by the
said elevators, and that in all state
ments to that effect he was acting
upon transformation, and that he
makes this affidavit for the purpose
of correcting the misstatements and
of showing the true facts. The az

Circulation.

Total number in circulation. IA, OPS
Our circulation last year was 6166,
with SO per cent fiction. There is about
9 per cent decrease in percentage of
fiction, and probably the increased use
the high school has made of the library
will account for this, there being not
less fiction, but more history, litera.
ture, biography and science being read.
No record is kept of use Of papers and
reference books, which is additional to
the figures given above.
In November, according to instruc-
tions from the Woman's Club, the Ii.
brary board rendered their plant to the
city, provided that a city library be
organized under the state law. The
city council rejected the proposal. but
donated from the city funds $500 for
1906. As we have the free use Of the
council room, with lights and heat, we
feel that the city is cooperating with
us in satisfactory manner.
Miss Florella Phillips, librarian, sew
cred her connections with US in Febru'
ary, and Miss Vina Sherman has filed
acceptably, the position of librarian
since that date.
Up to March we used the old-fash
ioned ledger system of checking books
since that date we have checked by
card, according to approved library
methods. Our librarian started on
card catalogue about two and halt
months ago. She is working at this
exclusively six hours daily. but many
months will elapse before even title
and authors catalogue is secured. as
cataloguing is extremely slow work.
We have quantity of standard
magazines awaiting binding, but funds
have not been forthcoming for the pur-
pose, and they are aecumulating on our
shelves.
To Miss Cornelia Marvin, Of the state
library commission, we are indebted
for instruction to librarian, for wise
counsel and assistance, especially 10
the president of the library board.

NEARLY 100 MEN WANTED

TUCKY OR NESSEE-PLANS
FOR HOUSING THEM.

Unable to get the needed labor in
Richmond or it's vicinity to do work
in connection with rebuilding it's en-.
tire telephone system, the Richmond
Home Telephone Company has decid-
ed to import fifty negroes. The COM
pany has been advertising for help
for several days, but has received Or
help and Supt Bailey feels that he
can solve the problem by importing
negroes from Tennessee or Ken
lucky.
Supt. Bailey was reared on q South
ern plantation and he does not antic-
ipate any trouble in handling the col
ored men from the South. He will
build a temporary lodging place for
the men in place which will not be
in touch with the resident district of
the city. He has place in mind
which is quite isolated from the pub
lie. He intends for the negroes to
eat and live in the quarters built for
them and does not intend that they
shall mingle generally in the city. A
man will be placed in charge of them
and they will be compelled to remain
