Last week a report was sent out
from Washington to the effect that
President Taft was making personal
appeals to House members of the
tariff conference committee to make
concessions to Aldrich. This re-
port was doubtless instigated by
Aldrich, and has called forth a
statement from the White House
that is anything but reassuring to
the man from Rhode Island. The
President is now calling for free
raw material, free oil, free coal, free
iron ore, free hides, and a general
downward revision just as he talked
in his campaign speeches. This
will be little tough upon the Sen
atorial combination that thought il
was the whole works.

Base Ball
R. F. 9-sIMoNETrs 10


The principal features" of last
Sundays game here between River
Falls and the Simonett Club of Still
water, were the graceful and classy
boneheaded plays and artistic Jug
Cling of the ball. Up to the seventh
inning the locals were enough in
the lead to win four or five games
and then the deluge. In the seventh
the visitors needed six scores to tie,
and the locals obligingly donated
that number, and continued the act
courteous in the eighth and ninth,
allowing their guests to finish four
in the lead. A fair sample of the
brand of base ball the locals were
putting up was the little comedy
sketch in the second inning when
the whole team lined up to catch
Golf between second and third, and
after playing catch for about five
minutes, allowed that worthy to
land safely at third. Quinot and
Borrowman played good ball but
their support turned them down
hard. Stewards batting was the
real feature of the game, the center
fielder getting four nice clean singles
out of FIVE times at bat.

An Owatonna man, who went to
Seattle some time ago, recently re-
turned thoroughly disguised with
the whole country in that vicinity.
He says there is absolutely no show
there for man without money and
that the streets of Seattle, Spokane,
Portland and other western cities
are filled with the great army of the
unemployed. His advice to young
men who are just now filled with a
desire to go West is to get into some
sort of business in their home town,
for the West is being OVERLOADED
with men seeking to get rich quick.

Senators Borah and Cummins
have instituted campaign TO reform
the civil service. They are con.
WINGED that horrible favoritism has
been shown in making appointments
and that the examinations as con-
Quoted by the Civil Service Commits
sion furnish no criterion as TO the
qualifications of aspirants for fed
eral situations. 1t is somewhat
noticeable that the men who most
frequently want to reform the civil
service are the late arrivals whose
constituents have not enjoyed a
share of the federal patronage. For
a good many years it has been the
custom to fill up class of federal
places with the henchmen of mem
bers of Congress and then cover
them in That is, place them un-
der civil service protection, so that
the incumbents cannot be displaced
to make room for others whose
members of Congress have arrived
later. Now the federal service is so
filled with civil service employees
that there is nothing more to cover
in" Naturally, therefore, the new
members want an overhauling which
will let some of their people in for
the good things.
The Annual Summer Meeting of
the State Horticultural Society will
be held in La Crosse Aug. 25th and
26th. The program shows depart
ure from the usual custom of talk
ing shop" so commonly followed in
the past and is modelled on the lines
of Farm Institute. Only one topic
will be presented, viz, The Farm
Home" and under this head the
farm orchard, fruit garden, vege-
table garden, and the Farm Beautiful
will all be discussed by practical
fruit men who are also farmers. DR..
T. E, Loope of Eureka, D. E. Bing-
ham of Sturgeon Bay, Senator Pear
son of Baraboo, and others, will
each give instruction regarding the
most practical way for the farmer to
raise fruit for home use. Instruc-
ton in the cultivation and spraying
of farm orchards and gardens will
be given by Asst Prof. Moore and
Instructor Milward of the Agricult-
ural College. Farmers are urged to
attend these meetiAgs, Copies of
the program and further information
will be furnished on application to
the Secretary, F. Cranefeld, Madi-
son.

Division Of Revenues Between
Territory and Counties.
There Is a natural tendency to seek
for the counties larger and larger
shares of the revenues, and II will re.
CURE fortitude to withstand this ten.
dency except in so far as the fdcts
warrant. Thus far, Notwithstanding
q steaSy decrease in revenues during
the period of county government, the
counties have received larger
amount each successive year, the in.
crease being at the rate OF more than
100000 a year. namely. 81 ,OO7 BOA in
the fiscal year 1906. sl.O47.S41.39 in
1907 and 81 ,O91, 32S.SS in 1908. and the
| atural increase for the current year
| Twill probably be AT least as much.
These amounts, It is submitted, are
larger in proportion to needs than they
should be. They certainly should not
be increased without transfer of
needs from the Territory to the coun.
/ ties. These amounts are exclusive of
other minor sources of revenue and of
the equipment for road construction
and repair and other purposes which
have been turned over to the counties
b ythe Territory, and the service of
prisoners which goes In the main to
the counties. although the Territory
bears most of the expense of prison
maintenance; moreover, the counties
have the advantage of being able to
expend their funds as they deem best
while the territorial executive is
bound by specific appropriations for
different objects. A saving In ex.
pense could be effected II some of
i these appropriations should be com.
bined into lump sums. giving the heads
of departments wider discretion so
that they might use the money to best
advantage. the aggregate being limit.

asked the witness her age but the
court excused her from answering
that or from telling where she was
born.
Travelled With Wild West.
Mr.. Nicoll asked the witness If she

conveyance in which Mrs. Gould was
riding collided with q truck some
where between New York and ia

Gould said she did not go to a road
house and supper with Mr.. Farnum
after the collision but after visiting
Castle Gould they stopped at road
house on the Vandebilt cup course
and had some refreshments brought
ont to them but did not enter the
house Mrs. Gould said she could not
recall whether she had anything to
drink then but declared that 1t would
not have been unusual. With Mr..
Farnum Mrs. Gould said, she return
ed to the st. Regis Hotel about IL
o'clock that night and Mr. Farnm ac-
companied her to her apartments for
few minutes and then went to his
own rooms.

purposes to retain me as Deputy Ser

question on the part of my friends,
and not being able to see them ali IN

them that Mr.. Mugler has never APP
preached me on the subject of max
ing me his deputy, and | do not ex-
pect him to. | am heart and soul in
this fight for Mr.. Milstead, and am
fighting for his success. His success
means my success. My position
is that Mr. Mugler should reward

not me who is doing all in my power
to defeat him.
