SOME REPUBLICAN KICKS.

That there is widespread dissatis-
faction with the Republican candidate
for Governor and the platform adopted
at Duluth is clearly shown by the at
titude of many Republican papers
throughout the state. The following
extracts from a number Of these pa
pers in various congressional districts
reveal the prevailing sentiment.
Excelsior News, (Rep.): The chances
are that Republican Minnesota will
elect Il Democratic governor this fall
and that John A. Johnson will succeed
himself. The Minneapolis Tribune may
not know it. but it has handed out the
cue that will do the business.
st. Peter Free Press, (Rep.): The alb
sence of an insurance plank in the Re-
publican platform adopted at Duluth
doesn't sit well with the voters of the
We need reforming in that business

with the corporations it was any man

so far as the choice of the people is
concerned. and as sufficient evidence to
warrant the next legislature in placing
all state officers on the primary ballot

demand such action Of their represen-

NOT FOR COLE.

Editor Olson of the Anoka Free Press
is an ardent advocate of Democratic
doctrine generally speaking, but he has
the cOmmendable habit of talking
right out when things are not looking
right. In 1904 the Free Press sup
ported r. c. Dunn for governor and
waged vigorous campaign in his be-
half. This year it is different as will
be seen by the following paragraphs
from last weeks paper:

Third Week at Champlain Assembly

A lecture program full to the brim
with bright, clever talks, by equally
brilliant takers; a series of festivities
from the delightfully."- informal to the
splenddly informal; and record
breaking attendance for this period
of the year have made the past week,
the third in the present session, of

be remembered in the annals of Cliff
Haven. There is not dull spot or
dull moment in this charming place
now. The porch of every Club and
cottage rings with the merry laugh
ter or huns with the earnest talk
of congenial group; every hour has
its center of interest, whether it be
the chapel, the class room, the lecture
hall, the beach, the golf links, or the
ball room. In this charming COM

which are Cliff Havens chief charms,

In point of distinction the chief
social event Of the week was the for

distinguished guest of the occasion.
Rt. Rev. Charles H. Cotton, bishop of
Buffalo, which took place on Thurs
day evening. Several distinguished
Buffalonians, both clerical and lay,
participated i'll the short program of
addresses and songs. Handsome lit

Peter Paul, were given to the guests
as souvenirs of the event. Other
charming social affairs of the week
weer the two weekly hops at the
Champlain and Jersey Clubs. The
affair at the Jersey Club Monday ev-
ening was the first of the season. In
honor of the occasion the handsome
ball room was transformed into
bower of beauty by artistic dec6ea-
tons of electric lights, evergreen, and
an abundance of golden hearted dais-
les. The formel ball at the Cham

lost none of its charm because of the
other brilliant affairs, but as usual,
attracted the largest crowd of the
week.
The usual Sunday evening recep-

Advice to Christmas Shoppers.

Jacob A. Riis of New York, S. w
Woodward of Washington and others
are engaged in a movement to induce

chases early in the season and early

presented as follows, in a letter adj

ment on a national scale to modify the
ping?
Every year the celebration of Christ,
mas grows more elaborate. More pres
ents are bought, the crowds are great
er, the decorations are more splendid.
1.-The problems of the merchants are
more complex. The
supply of labor has to be increased,
the pressure at every point intensifies.
On one hand, public opinion disap-
proves long hours and late work, par
ticularly for youn g women. girls and
children On the other, merely through
thoughtfulness, many shoppers defer
their purchases until the last possible
moment, and at the cost of unneces-
sary strain upon salespeople and de-
livery force
by joint effort of editors and mer-
chants the idea can be brought home
to millions of customers that they can
benefit themselves and every one con-
cerned, if they will do their Christmas
shopping early in the season and early
in the day, thus frightening the Christ
mas shopping period and reducing the
disadvantages which in other seasons
have attended the Christmas crowds.
''Will you not insert in the corner of
your display advertising in all local pa
pers such card as the enclosed?
IF you will cooperate, kindly let us
know

Christmas shoppers will confer ben

ployes and at the same time make the

We talk a great deal about trusts
but we do nothing else Englishmen
act. When a soap trust was formed
there the whole nation abandoned the
use of soaps made by the combining
companies. Retailers had to announce
that they did not deal in trust soaps
or lose their trade. The combine
found itself unable to sell its wares,
and it has dissolved. If Americans
hated trusts as much as they pretend
to they would buy no trust made
goods, and the combinations would dis
solve or go into bankruptcy. Not one
of them is a complete monopoly. Ev-
cry one has rivals. But it is charac-
teristic of Americans to swear at
trusts and make not the least effort to
patronize the independent concerns.

WILEs OF THE CHEFS.
Banquet Tidbits Are Not Always What
They Seem.

1t has almost passed into a provert
that many of the dishes served up in
cheap restaurants, where nothing is
wasted, are, to put it mildly, mysteries
| But, on the other hand, most people
who patroniZe fashionable and more
| ambitious restaurants are generally
| content to accept the menu for what it
is said to be. This blind trust is some
what abused, and the amount of fax
ing" which goes on today in some of
the we'll to do establishments would
probably surprise those who are I'M
initiated in the higher branches of the
culinary art.
For instance. by the addition of veg
up cod outlets are, at seasons when
salmon is very dear, set before Gus
toners as salmon outlets and are,
needless to say, charged accordingly.
This deception, according to an ex-
chef, is wisely practiced not only in
better class restaurants, but also on
some of the great liners
Another popular trick as practiced
by the restaurateur is to serve veal
beef done up overnight In sailed band
ages, while a skillful chef has very
little difficulty in palming off flatfish
for sole on epicures who pride them
selves on the soundness of their judg-
ment of cooking.
On one occasion some time ago q
dinner for seventy-five people was or
dered at well known fashionable res
taurant in the upper part of New York.
\ large consignment of salmon had
been previously ordered, but, to the
CONSERVATION of the chef, the dinner
hour slowly approached and still no
salmon arrived.
In despair the chef, a Frenchman,
decided to take the bull by the horns"
and procure another fish to do duty for
the coveted salmon. Accordingly he
sat to work to turn cod outlets into salm-
on outlets, and this rapid transforma-
ton was soon effected by an addition
of vegetable juice. The walters, who
naturally We're aware of this whole
sale deception, were given express or
ders to report any complaints to the
chef at once. However, to the intense
delight of the chef. all passed off well,
and on hearing that his subterfuge had
not been detected he gleefully eX
claimed, "Ah, a cod and French cook
can work miracles"

The DAYTIME Nan

Prolonged forty winks" during the
day are severely condemned by many
doctors on the ground that they affect
ones regular sleep. Scientists have
found that in the ordinary course In
the human being there is the greatest
vitality between 10 a. NJ. and 2 p. m.
and the least between 2 o'clock and 6
o'clock in the morning. Long sleeps
during the day interfere with this or
der of nature, sometimes causing head
ache. The nap of forty winks. but
only forty, proves refreshing to many
because 1t is too short to have any in
furious consequences.
