REDLANDS, Aug. 9O,-The great
council of Red Men of California ad-
journed this evening after electing the
foregoing officers and selecting Santa
Rosa as the place of meeting next
year, setting the date as the second
Monday in August instead of the third
Monday because of interference with
the date set for primary elections in
California.
The fight for Office was hot one in
several instances. Judge Hibbard de-
feated Herman Gudstadt of San Fran
cisco for great junior sycamore, a
stepping stone to great sachem, it
being a rule to advance officers each
year.
There were six candidates for trus-
tees and the fight was bitter one, A.
r, Underwood, present trustee, going
down in defeat.
The majority of delegates went to
Pasadena tonight on their special train
to spend tomorrow there at barbecue,
others remaining in this section for
several days to tour the country.
Tonight was celebrated as 'all fools
night" by the remaining delegates and
residents of Redlands, immense crowds
being on the streets.

CRANE RETIRES
BY REQUEST
Minister 10 China Resigns al
KnOI'S Suggestion.
MADE A SPIRITED REPLY
Declares He Was UnJustly Treated
and Denies He Gave Newspapers
story That Caused the Trouble.

Washington. Oct. 13 - Charles r.
Crane OF Chicago. minister designate
TO China. was practically deposed by
a demand from Secretary Knox for his
resignation.
Thus new chapter in American
diplomacy was written. A citizen
chosen with special regard for his
qualifications for the post was recalled
before he had embarked from San
Francisco and discharged from his
high Office because OF alleged indis-
Greet disclosures through the press.
Moreover this minister breaking
through all the old traditions. insisted
on defending himself from the asper-
slons cast upon him by the secretary
of state by the issuance OF statement
which most people here comment upon
as certain 10 be very embarrassing to
the administration.
The history OF this extraordinary ar
fair. which began about a week ago
with the announcement that Minister
Crane had been stopped at San Fran
cisco at the moment OF embarkation
for his post by demand from Secre-
tary Knox for his return to Washing
ton. reached at least its first crisis
when the secretary in q formal state
mont announced that Mr.. Cranes
resignation had been invited. and the
minister designate replied in an
equally formal statement that while
his resignation already had been ten
dered TO the president he felt himself
very uniustly treated. Moreover Mr.
Crane in his statement reflected very
severely upon the officials Of the state
department. charging that not only
had they RETAINED from giving him the
instructions usually issued to min
lster or ambassador about TO leave for
his post. but that he had been denied
access to them even after he had
made repeated appointments with
them.
He enters a sweeping denial OF the
charge that he gave out a newspa-
per story which is said TO be the cause
OF his deposition. and places squarely
upon the shoulders OF President TAFT
the responsibility for the various nj
terances he has made regarding con
ditions in the Far East which have
aroused the ire Of Secretary Knox. and
for final action upon his resignation.

A HARD NAME

An article published some time ago
in the Baltimore Sun, describing the old
Hand Tavern, Paca st. and Lexington
Market. Baltimore, brought to mind an
incident that occurred at that hosiery
MANY wears ago. The Hand Tavern
was a great place for the farmers OF
Howard, Carroll and Frederick counties
to put I'D at in the days when the
farmers hauled their farm products to
market in big covered four horse
wagons. One cold winter night back IN
the fifties, a number Of these well to DO
farmers were sitting around the stove
after supper. Most of them that night
happened to be strangers, so in order 10
start up a conversation one farmer re.
marked, I'm bet treats for the crowd
that l have the hardest name OF any
man present. That was before the days
of the Anti-Saloon League. Several
spoke up and each said, "I'll take that
bet" ''Well" said the speaker, Tets
hear your name. One said, my name
is Irons" another said. 81 win, my
name is Steele;" the other said, "Well, !
think win as my name is Diamond. "
AS the others did not have hard name
they said nothing. Mr.. Diamond then
said to the farmer making the bet,
ssNow, sir. if you have harder name
than mine, let's hear it. " well, sir, you
all lose; my name is Harder. y "Well,'
said Mr.. Diamond, "come up, boys; Wen

The Virginia State Fair, which
closed at Richmond Saturday last.
should cheer the hearts of Virgin
ians. Of course it has all along been
a matter of common knowledge that
we possess a most favorable, advan-
tageous and delightful climate and a
naturally kind and productive SOIL
and there have been many evidences
in recent years that our farmers
were making the most OF these ad-
vantages. The splendid showing
made by Virginia exhibitors at the
fair, in all the departments of agrl-
culture, affords ample evidence that
our farmers are combining intelli-
eence and scientific methods in I'M
proving and tilling the soil, and that
they are attaining the reward they
are entitled TO.
Visitors from outside the State
were profoundly impressed, and
many of them expressed amazement
at the exhibits of the various de-
partments, agriculture, horticulture,
stock breeding, etc., and the amount
of advertisement lands in the Old
Dominion will get on account there
of will bring good results in the near
future.
The State Fair has become hx-
ture. and every citizen in the Com
monweaIth should take just pride
in it.
