BIG TRIO OF SPEAKERS.
Minnesota State Fair Planning ON
Taft, Bryan and Johnson.

Two presidential nominees, former
Secretary of War Taft, and William
Jennings Bryan, are to be among the
speakers of the Minnesota State Fair,
Aug. 81 to Sept. 5, if the plans of the
board of managers made during their
regular meeting of July are carried
out successfully. At that meeting,
President B. F. Nelson, Vice President
@. Milton Griggs, and Secretary @. N.
Cosgrove were made a committee to
extend formally, and through personal
friends, an invitation to both of these
political luminaries to address the
people of the Minnesota State Fair
this year. There seems to be little
doubt but that the invitations win be
accepted in each case, as Mr.. Taft
speaks at Omaha Aug. 81, and would
doubtless be glad to come to the Min
nesota State Fair during that week,
and it is presumed that William Jen-
nings Bryan will be gald of the oppor-
tunity to speak in Gov. Johnson's
own baiiwick.
The official telegraphic correspond
ence between President B. F. Nelson
of the Minnesota State Fair and Mr..
Bryan is interesting reading. ...
Mr.. Nelson telegraphed July 10 as
follows:
"William Jennings Bryan, Lincoln,
Neb.
ssThe State of Minnesota, whose fa-
vorite son, John A. Johnson, aspired
to the honor which is now yours, in
vites you, through the board of man
ayers, Minnesota State Fair, to ad-
dress the people on the State Fair
grounds Monday, Aug. 81.
"Gov. Johnson joins us in assuring
you that your welcome will be none
the less cordial because the Demo-
cratic national convention, 1908, pre-
ferred you to our governor as the
presidential nominee of the Demo
cratic party for the campaign of 1908.
"We are awaiting to announce your
coming to our people.
'sB. F. Nelson, President.
&c. n. Cosgroye, Secretary"
To which Mr.. Bryan replied with the
following telegram:
'sB. F. Nelson, State Fair Association. !
"I very much appreciate your invi-
tation. but cannot make any promises
to dates during the fall campaign
without consulting the national COM
mittee. Will consider the matter
later. See letter.. My compliments
to Gov. johnson. ii
-s'WsJ. Bryant
Gov. johnson has already signi1ed
his Willingness to speak at the State
Fair, and it is probable that he will be
the Rrst speaker of the week.
The coming of this famous trio of
statesmen will add significance to the
State Fair of 1908, and will doubtless
do a great deal to increase the at

NO SNOW FOR THANKSGIVING
Forecast Indicates That Usual Fall
VIII BE Missing.

Something unexpected in the calcu-
lations of the weather bureau will have
to happen within the next twenty-four
hours if Hammond and vicinity is to
enjoy the usual Thanksgiving snow
storm. There were vague rumors yes
terday that a bowling gale was headed
for Lake county, and that it carried
with it a snowstorm of first dimen-
sions and decided fall of temperature
But Forecaster Cox couldn't see it that
way last night. He scanned the re-
ports from all parts of the country
west. northwest and southwest-and
then prognosticated as follows:
There will be no marked change in
the weather in Lake county for at least
twenty-four hours. Tomorrow will be
partly cloudy and slightly cooler, and
conditions probably Will become slight
ly unsettled again Thursday There
will be fresh westerly winds which
will become variable tomorrow night

WHAT MONEY WILL BUY.
BY EDWIN A. NYE.
Copyright, 1908. by Edwin A. Nye

A certain man, reputed to be from
Chicago, went down Broadway. New
York city, a few days ago distributing
five and ten dollar bills to the people
The man was arrested and adjudged
insane. 1t was taken for granted that
any man who would voluntarily give
away what everybody was trying TO
have and hold must necessarily be
crazy. However
The man might have been merely
drunk
him because of the way in which he
got the money.
Or he may have been prompted by
philanthropic feelings.
But, TO dismiss motives, is the mere
fact that a man gives away good
money on the street evidence that he is
insane?
If SO, why do we say that men who
are immersed in money getting, who
do nothing and think nothing but mon
ey-why do we say that these men
are money madT' Is it not true that
when man gets the insane notion
into his head that money is the only
thing worth while in this world he is
mentally unbalanced?
Then why conclude that only the
man who gives money away is mad?
Will money buy the best things
love, joy, peace?
Certainly not. They are not for sale
on any counter. They are the fruits OF
a mans spirit. They spring up in his
soul and ripen there.
Then why put so much value on
money?
| Money can buy many things, neces-
stiles, comforts, luxuries, ease, power
And so men go over seas and CONT
nents and die for the sake of money
They will zen sell their souls to gel
money and then bask themselves in
the sunshine Of their self made pros
perity, hoping for happiness.
Are they not as insane as the man
who was reckless with his bills?
Because all they can buy with money
are OUTSIDE THINGS, while the true
satisfactions of life spring from
WITHIN. If man were only dust, the
golden dust Of earth might satisfy
But he is more than dust.
John L. Sullivan-and he spoke from
personal experience-put this trutf
tersely the other day when he said:
2 MONEY WILL BUY EVERY
THINGrBUT HAPPINESS"
Think 1t over.
Is 1t not possible the "crazy man
was about the only sane person OF
Broadway?

TN POLITICS

President-elect Taft will go to New
York early in December to attend a
banquet of the North Carolina society.
He will remain in New York about q
week as guest of his brother and will
then go south to remain until near the
date of his Inauguration as president.
Five democratic governors-elect are
to be feted by the Iroquois club of
Chicago at it's Jackson day banquet
in Janury. The governors-eIect who
have accepted the invitation to the
banquet are John Burk of North Da-
kota, John A Johnson of Minnesota.
Judson Harmon of Ohio, Thomas Mar
shall of Indiana, and Ashton c. Schal-
lenberger of Nebraska
Some of the leading democratic poll
tioians are of the opinion that Thomas
r. Marshall, democratic governor-elect
of Indiana, will have some advantage
as democratic presidential possibility
in 1912 over Governor Johnson of Min
nesota, three times elected as a demo-
crat, and Judson Harmon, the demo-
cratic governor-elect of Ohio Their
Judgment is based chiefly on the fact
that the terms of both Johnson and
Harmon will expire two years hence
and they will be compelled to be re-
elected to retain their prestige

of representatives for the sixty-first

total of 3s9 in the house during the last

loss of four from the republican side
