william Dudley Foulk of Richmond
talked on the subject Public Veal
Versus Party or Personal Woe" His |
talk was full of sparkling humor and. |
himself an editor his description of a
fight between two country newspapers
was so mirth provoking that those in
the audience held their sides in laugh
ing at what he had to say.
But Mr. Foulk also talked in a more
serious vein. He spoke of the in
adequacy of the present cities and
towns law as applied to the larger CT
ties OF the state. He went on record as
being opposed to the government of
cities by state legislation. He thought
they ought to have self government
and be permitted to select their own
form of government.
He spoke of the Des Moines plan, the
Houston plan, the Los Angeles plan and
the Galveston plan and advocated the
commission form of city government.
| He advocated the initiative. which per
mits the people of a city to compel the
passage of measures for the public
good, the referendum. which makes it
possible for the people of a city to
compel the referring of a matter to the
people and the recall, which would
enable the people to force out of office
a man whose actions did not meet with
public approval
! Mr. Foulke's talk was an inspiring
one, and when he told about beautiful
/ Richmond and pointed out how any city
could be made beautiful by encourag-
ing the planting Of trees. he showed
that a city beautiful need not be an
expensive thing after all
The banquet was served by the la
dies Of the Hammond Woman's club and
it was a very enjoyable affair." After
the cigars had been lighted Secretary
E. 4. Johnston, who acted as toastmast-
er, made a few Introductory remarks
which put the audience in good humor.
He referred to the monster Ratchet
Of tin and wood, which had been made
at the plant or F. s. Betz. The blade
. Of the Ratchet was nearly six feet tail.
and its presence in the banquet hall
was a source Of great deal of amuse-
ment among the banqueters.

Pure FOOD LAW

The standing by the pure food pretty faithfully
says the Lewiston Tribune dispatch printed from Chicago
few days ago emphasizes that fact and suggests incidentally the
great license of deception that manufacturers had become
accustomed
sold under word which play the word maple because by
chemical process he gave the flavor of maple without ncor
porang any maple juices The government seized large
consignment syrup and the manufacturer trying
pleaded both that the law unconstitutional and that his
practice did constitute misbraudng The rejected both
pleas.
The interesting point of the is that the of
suggesting infusion of maple juices syrup that had
maple Juices whatever should be held be violation of the law
against msbrandng The vessel in which sold carried
that the maple syrup but labeled with

ed misbranding.
One apt think, first glance that that rather fine
saning law; but will reflect that
imitation maple syrup and that the of the word limitation
made the sale of the stuff impossible it will become
clear pro6tg by the practice OF rather clever
deception prevent receptions of the chief p
poses of the law.
There hardly be doubt that this firm considers itself the
victim legal outrage for constituted that
wongdong long pactced the appearance of vested
familiarity thing manufactures have become so
abtaed fraudulent deception that they have quite lost the
consciousness wrongdong and them the pure food law must

BASE BALL CLUB
Committee Appointed to Raise Mon
ey Makes a Canvass With Good
Degree of Success

The outlook for a good base ball
club for Sauk Centre the coming sea-
son appears to be good. A committee
appointed for that purpose has made
canvass of the city and found it not
difficult to secure subscriptions to a
fund to enable the city to put good
team in the field. This committee
consists Of Geo. Fish, j. M. Wilson,
Geo. r. Borgmann, L. E. Heifner and
Ed. Hansen. The sum of $400 has
been subscribed, the committee secur-
ing more than half the amount. The
sum Of S170 was subscribed on the
evening the organization was formed.
1t is the wish of the management to
have not less than $500 in sight to
start the season with. This amount,
the management believes, will put the
organization in position to secure
enough good players to insure a sue
cessful season. 1t will be necessary to
have four paid men; the rest will be
home players. The committee did not
see all the business men when they
made their canvass last week, but
there is every reason to believe that
the remaining 500 will be secured
with little difficulty.

Turkish Beaaar at Home.

Beggars are never suppressed in
Turkey. The story is told (ard they
say it is true) about an American lady
who by mistake gave beggar of
Constantirople gold piece. The man
had left his post when she returned
but one of his colleagues told her
where he resided"
1t was a fine house, and at the door
was servant who politely informed
the lady that my master is dressing.
He will be down soon." And then the
well groomed beggar, dressed for din
ner, appeared and gladly returned the
gold piece, explaining in the meantime
that such mistakes were highly EN-.
barrassing.

Few Desertions in Mexico.

Instances Of desertion from the
army in Mexico are very rare and for
the best reasons" said Senor Jose de
Minaldez OF Nueya Leon. THE reason
lies in the almost sure capture of the
fugitive and the certainty that he will
get not one but numerous fog
gings on his bare back. These
lashings are done in the presence Of
the comrades of the deserter, and
when the men see how great is the
suffering of the miserable wretch who
tried in vain to quit his military obli.
cations they are forced to conclude
that it is better to stick to the army
than undergo such a terrible ordeal." !"
