MEET IN ANNISToN.
Great Farmers Educational Convention
 For Model City.

For Model City.
 Anniston, June 2.-(Speciai)- )-From a letter received today by J. A. Van den Burg, the annual convention of the Farmers Educational and Co-opera- tive Union of America, Alabama Divis- ion. is practically assured for Annis- ton in August. The coming of this convention here is perhaps the greatest compliment yet given Anniston since she became a convention city.
 At any rate, 1t will be the largest convention yet to assemble here, as there will probably be TOO delegates in attendance. As an educator. perhaps this convention will exceed any others, as the topics before the convention will be intensely practical and correspond ingly far reaching.
 The professional burglar and plate glass smasher Is still at large in the city. The fidelity with which he plays his vocation is commendable. however. much his vocation itself might be con demned Last night, during the still ness of the midnight hours, he paid a visit to the store rooms of the Shelnutt Mercantile Company and with rocks smashed two plate glasses in the front windows of the store and took there from suit of clothes and hat, both of cheap quality, destroying $75 worth of plate glass to get his booty. No entrance to the store was made, as the holes on the glass were too small to admit anyone through the opening. The crime was committed shortly after mid night, 1t is thought, and was discovered soon after by the police. who notified MT, Shelnutt. No clue to the perpe- trator of the deed has been obtained, A card which was pinned to the hat was found this morning near the store besmeared with blood which it is sup posed 'ame from a cut wound in the burglar hands which he probably got in extracting his booty through the broken glass.

3. We heartily congratulate him
upon the fact that he has been sue
cessful in securing appointments to
be made to Federal positions within
his district with less friction, and
less criticism than has been known
heretofore, and that persons whom
he has secured to be appointed to
such positions have been worthy and
competent to~till such positions, and
have generally, been commended by
the people.
&. That Northwestern Minnesota
has, by Mr.. Steenerson, been ably
represented in congress and it's peo-
pie have felt that in him they have
secured man worthy of the posi-
tion, and that his actionas their pre-
resentative has done much to in
crease and extend the prestige OF
this portion of the state, and it's in
terests have been upheld by his un-
tiring efforts, while in former years
the interests of this section of the
state have been almost entirely over
looked and neglected.
That we ask of Mr.. Steenerson,
only, that he use in the future as
in the past, his best energies and
ability to truly represent the people
of the Ninth Congressional District
OF Minnesota in the Congress of the
United States, and assure him that
such course will merit and receive
the appreciation and support of the
people.

PRAISE FROM
DENEEN
Illinois Governor says Era o
Cheap Meats is
Over

General Manager W. e. Skinner of
the international Live Stock EIx-
position has received the following
communication from Governor
Deneen:
The Importance of the Interna-
tional Live stock Exposition not only
to stockmen, but to all the people, is
not easy to appreciate at it's full
value.
The free pastures of the Western
range have gone forever. In the
meat producing section of the
country, agricultural lands have
doubled in value in the last decade
and the best of them will double
again within the near future. The
era Of cheap FOOD is over and the
problem of meat for the masses is
upon US.
One cannot ride over the length
and breadth of our country without
being unpleasantly impressed by the
large proportion of inferior animals.
All Investigations show that these
animals consume about as much feed
per capita and per day as do the
better bred ones. In view of all the
conditions, not cheap meat, but good
meat at any price within reason is to
be had only through superior ami
mails; that is, animals of high
efficiency in converting grain and
forage into human food.
And so it is that the food of the
people and the nitrogen supply Of
our lands through forage crops are
both involved in live stock of high
efficiency. To increase that efficiency
is the object and the inevitable re-
suit of the International. In this
matter all classes of men have di-
rect interest, and I bespeak for. this
exposition the attendance ana intel
ligent interest, not only of the stock
men who profit directly by it's dis
plays, but of all classes of people who
realize how firmly are bound together
all phases Of the economic develop
ment of this country; and especially
do l bespeak the carefully attention
of the great metropolitan journals,
which are only beginning to realize
the meaning OF the present agricul-
tural development and have appar-
emily not yet recognized the full
significance of what is soon to be-,
if it is not already, the greatest live
stock show on earth and what is
without doubt the most significant
fact connected with the food of the
American people. The Chicago Live
Stock World.
