TAFT 70 VISIT ROYALTY
PLANS MADE FOR HIM TO SEE
KAISER AND KING,
His Coming Meeting with the German
Ruler Causes Stir in Official
Europe

Berlin, Nov. 9.-EmperOr William
during his visit to England will see
Secretary Taft at Osborne house, Isle
of Wight. A message conveying this
wish was sent through the German
embassy at Washington, it being un,
derstood that Mr.. Taft has finally de.
cided to return to the United States
by way of Europe. 1t is regarded as
likely that Mr.. Taft will also seek an
audience with King Edward, as for the
American secretary of war to visit
the German emperor on British soil
without paying equivalent respect to
the king might be regarded as dis,
courteous.
So much has been said about Mr..
Taft planning to see the emperor that
some Of the other governments have
seemingly become curious in regard
to whether anything is intended by the
step taken by the American govern
ment. Ambassadors Bryce and JUS
serand, 1t is asserted here, already
have made inquiries on the subject at
the state department at Washington,
and 1t is further asserted that there ia
a feeling at the foreign Offices in Lon
don and Paris that Mr.. Taft would be
sighting King Edward and President
Fall1eres If he did not ask to see them
on his way home or if he stopped only
at st. Petersburg and Berlin while on
his way back to the United States.
Washington, Nov. 9.-Cable advices
received at the war department Fri
day confirm the recent press dis
patches from Manila of Secretary
Taft's intention to return to the United
States by way of Asia and Europe
Secretary Taft left Manila Saturday
morning on the flagship Rainbow o1
Admiral Hemphills squadron for Vlad
ivostok. The following cablegrams
regarding the secretary's movements
we're received Friday from Brig Gen
Edwards, who is accompanying Mr.
Taft on his trip: "Manila-Will take
advantage of the fall cruise Of Hemp
hills squadron to go on his ship te
Vladivostok tomorrow. One of tht
cruisers accompanying will run int
Nagasah to get any cables that ma.
come"
"Manila-We leave as contemplated
at 10 o'clock Saturday morning on th'
Rainbow for Vladivostok. Advice'
from here reassuring as to condi
tions."
The ships accompanying the Rain
bow will be the Galveston and th'
Chattanooga. The latter will tOucl
at Nagasaki November IA for an,
cable communication which may b.
awaiting the secretary at that place
At the war department to-day it wa
said that nothing had been receive
from Secretary Taft respecting hi
itinerary.
A brilliant farewell reception wa
given to Secretary Taft Friday nigh
at the residence of Governor-Genera
Smith. 1t was characterized by tn
extreme democracy, representatives G
nearly every class of residents of M
Mia being present. Secretary Tai
and wife were greeted practically b
every one in attendance.

ADVICE TO
MERCHANTS
Farmer tells them to Initiate
Mail Order House by
Advertising

- AS is we'll known, the Sheaf
has fought with might and main
against the mail order houses. which
we regard as stupendous frauds. and
have lost no opportunity to support
the hcme merchantmen only in the
paper but also by trading with him.
lt is on account of our interest in
the home merchant that we reprint
the article below, written by a
sturdy Minnesota farmer for one of
our exchanges:
eff the mail order house gets
ST, 900 out Of this county each
month that belongs to the home
merchants the fault is with the
home merchants themselves. The
mail order houses advertise and give
us prices on everything they offer for
sale. They tell US what they have
and what they want for it. Of
course we get soaked once in a while
and if we do we can try some other
house. Most of the home merchants
who advertise at all don't quote
prices. They neglect to tell US what
we want to know-prices. Of course
we can go to the store and ask the
price of this article, and that, but
you know how it is-one doesn't
know so we'll what he wants to buy
when he gets in store as when he
| ic of ic 1n
mall order houses make their hit.
They send US their advertising
matter into our homes and we read
1T when we haven't anything else to
do and every member of the family
who reads their stuff usually finds
something that he or some other
member of the family wants and
many orders are made up and sent
out at just such times.
Right here is where the home mer-
chant falls down. II he talked up
his business in our homes the same
as the mail order houses do, the peo-
pie would be in to see him the next
time they come to town, and in
many cases extra trips would be
made to get things at once that
we did not know we wanted
until they were brought to
our attention.
The home merchant can save the
expense of getting out catalogue.
We people read the home papers
more carefully than we do a
catalogue, and if the merchants
want to talk business with US let
him put his talk in the home papers,
and put it in so that we know he
means business. The home mer-
chant likely, nine times out of ten,
sells his goods as cheap as the mail
order houses. and 1 believe on many
things they are much cheaper, but
how do we know it if he doesn't tell
US about it?
A merchant must not think that
even his best customers know his
goods So well that they can tell what
he has without being told.
1t is none of my business how the
home merchant runs his business
but I don't like to see these roaSts

The PARCEL POST
Congressman Steenerson Says
Merchants have Wrong
Idea About It.

LII IeSdIu W U1le parcel posi- law TO
be introduced in the next congress,
Hon. Halvor Steenerson has the
following to say:
81 notice that the subject of parcel
post has been considered by retail
and Wholesale merchants through
the country and that they seem to
fear the prospect of the Inauguration
of parcel post.
"Now, there seems to exist a good
deal OF misinformation on this SUBJ
ject among the people, judging this
matter from the different views that
have been expressed.
In the first place it should be re-
membered that we now have parcel
post in the United States, in as
much as the postal service carries
packages up to four pounds at the
rate of postage ofssl6 cents pound.
In the next place we have the in
te1national parcel post which has
been arranged by postal agreement
with twenty-five different foreign
countries, under which parcel con-
ventions packages to the weight of
II pounds are carried at the rate of
II cents per pound. 1t should be
remembered that the first kind of
pracel post, which is limited to the
United STATES and it's dependencies,
is established by statute, and by
other international agreement.
But there is regretable incongruity
between the two, with the result
that person now could send a pack
age from Crookston weighing four
pounds to New York for GA cents,
whereas. if the package was addressed
TO any postofice in Great Britain,
Scandinavia, France, Germany or
any of the 70 countries in the inter-
national parcel convention it would
be carried for 4S cents, and not only
this, but package weighing more
than four pounds would be refused
if addressed to postotfice in the
United States or it's dependencies but
would be carried to foreign post
offices mentioned.
The Postmaster General has
annouced that he intends to recon-
mend TO congress the establishment
of uniform rates for parcels, reducing
the domestic parcel post to II cents
per pound and increasing the weight
of the package to II pounds, so as tc
correspond, both in rate and weight
to the foreign schedule. He also
proposes to recommended the adoption
of a special rate for parcels on rura
routes so that any package mailed by
q patron of the same route. thu
charge shall be cents for the first
pound and cents for each addition
al pound up to II pounds. or 25 cent
for a package weighing II pounds.
II this proposal should be adopted
the result will be differential il
favor of the local merchants, for i
would cost the mail order houses L
cents pound or Sl.32 for II pounds
whereas the merchant at the distri
buting post office. or any patron OF
the rural route, could send the SAM
package for 25 cents
In view of the usually exhorbitan
rate of express com panies there is
general demand for more EXTENDED
parcel post service and it would seen
that if the opposition of the loca

Rev. E. O. Chelgren. Rev. j. A.
Krantz. of Duluth, president Of the
Minnesota conference, preached the
sermon and conducted the installa-
tion service, assisted by the pastors
who had taken part in the dedica-
tion of the church in the forenoon.
After these exercises a song was
rendered by--t choir of the Vega
congregation and then DR.. P. A.
Mattson was again introduced, and
addressed those present with refer
ence to the educational work in
which he is engaged, and which also
is the work of the church.
The Swedish Lutheran church ..of
Warren was organized, Oct. Is, 1881.
It's first pastor was Rev. s. Udden.
The ministers who since his re-
moval have had charge of the church
are as follows: Rev. n. j. Sture.
Rev. O. S. Werner, DR.. Aired Ber-

dedicated the handsome editice to
the uses and purposes for which it
had been built. The pastors ranged
in semicircle before the balustrade
read each verse or portion of script
ure having special reference to the
temple as a place of worship Of the
true God. At the conclusion of
these exercises the church choir,
under the leadership of Nels e. By
strom, sang very beautifully: III villain
i Herrens Hus," (Rest in the House
of the Lord).
After the song, short addresses
we're made by DR.. P. A. Mattson,
who during his student days was a
member of the Warren congregation,
and by Rev. A. Mattson, of
Alexandria, Minn.. who was the
pastor of the church when the corner
stone of the new church building
was laid, and in whose pastorate the
building. except the finishing touch
es, was erected. Both speakers con-
graduated the congregation upon the
completion and dedication of it's new
church. and commended the Christian
zeal and enterprise Of it's members as
exempliied in the handsome struct-
ure that had now been set apart for
the service of the Almighty God.
The ministers who we're present
and took part in the dedicato1y
exercises. besides those above
mentioned. we're: Rev. L. R. Lund-
gren. of Hallock, Rev. A. Sand, of
st. Hilaire Rev. Ryden. of Eng.
lund. Rev. Persenius. of Grand
Forks. and Rev. Rosenthal. of
Kennedy. and the local pastor. Rev.
E. O. Chelgren.
The corner stone of tie new church
was laid Aug. Is. 1900. That fall the
building was enclosed and the
following year it was finished
sufficiently to permit the celebration
of the Christmas festival therein.
The energies of the congregation
we're devoted several years after that
toward paying off the indebtedness
on the building.
During the past year or two, the
finishing touches have been put on,
the basement completed, the interior
tastefu]ly decorated, and beautiful
altar piece painted. Mr.. H. G. Kohl,
of Chicago, is the architect who
furnished the plans, and IL. Linder,
of Hallock, was the building con-
tractor. AS the cut above shows.
the church is a substantial and
beautiful structure, credit both
to the congregation and the city.
