Horace Vose the turkey king. is not in the least embarrassed by the scare ity of turkeys in his selection of, a prime bird for presentation to Presi- dent Taft for his Thanksgiving dinner. As usual Mir. Vose has preferred choice of all turkeys raised in Rhode Island or over the border line in Con- necticut, and he has already set aside half dozen select turkeys, the largest and best of which will be served at the White house. Since the administra- tion of President Grant, Westerly's turkey expert has had the distinguish ed pleasure of furnishing the choicest turkey for the Thanksgiving presiden- tial dinner
 When asked how big turkey he would send to the big president, he remarked: Taft will have the big gest and best turkey that I can get hold of, and don't you forget it; the turk may not be any larger than some have sent former presidents, but that is not my fault. I don't think the turkey I will send President Taft will weigh less than thirty pounds"

assembly shall divide each town and city into as many districts as it is en- titled to representatives, and after each census, or a occasion may require, the general assembly may so divide the town and city. and one representative shall be elected from each district by the qualified electors thereof. Such dis tricts shall be as nearly equal in pop ulation and as compact in territory as Is possible"
 Under this new apportionment West erly will be entitled to two districts and two representatives, which will of necessity carry with it two polling places and two sets of election officials, practically the same as prevails in the ward system in the cities. Up to four years ago Westerly had two represent atives, but lost one which went to Cranston. where the inmates of state institutions were counted as a part of the legal population of that town. When the general assembly divides Westerly into districts there is liability of change in party management. but not in -arty aScendency, and care will be taken that under the new plan the additional representative will not come from the minority party of the town as whole
 The amendment giving authority for the lieutenant governor to preside in the senate was carried in Westerly by a vote of 432 to AS.
 The amendment giving veto power to the governor was approved by a vote of 405 to 50.
 The harbor improvement loan was favored by vote of 326 to 12S.

IN MEMORIAM
Continued from page l

who though they live a lowly life,
yet are very necessary to the per-
petuation of the republic Johnson's
death, said the speaker, is a per-
sonal loss for us all. He was man
of high ideals, a man whom the
youth of the state and the country
would do we'll to emulate. ',.
Rev. F. H. Oehler began by am
plifying on DR.. Du Bois' remarks with
reference to Hartman and Johnson.
Hartman, he said, lived merely for
the achievement of power; johnson
lived to render service. 1t was
great thing to weld together lines OF
railway, which bind one ocean to the
other, but this was done from mere
ly selfish motive. 1t was far great
er thing to live, as did Johnson, to
serve the people. John A. Johnson
wanted to render service to his
1oilOWS anu LO uldhe TIC WOilu oCe
ter for his having lived in it. The
American people would rather honor
service than bow to the spirit of ac-
quiring millions. John A. Johnson
grew with the increased responsible
ties that were placed upon him, and
had he lived to be called to the
presidential chair, he would have
risen to the emergency. Minnesota
and every American citizen can we'll
be proud to have raised such son.
Mr.. Oehler spoke feelingly of John
sons devotion to his mother and to
his wife. He said he exaltation of
motherhood and of wifehood as exem-
plified in Johnson's life, are the two
foundation stones of social life. The
sanctity of the home, is the most
important factor in our social life,
and John A. Johnson recognized this.
His life and character are boon to
humanity.
The services closed with the bene-
diction by FIR. O'Connor.

DISTINGUISHED DEGREE
Is Conferred Upon Professor r. c.
Benner, Graduate Sauk Centre
HiQh School, Class '96

Professor r. G. Benner, son OF Mr.
and Mrs. w. Benner, and graduate
of the Sank Centre High school class
of 1896 and now at the head of the
department of chemistry OF the Uni
yersity of Arizona has just returned
from the University of Wisconsin at
Madison. where he received his Phi.
d. degree with high ,honors. The
work embodied in his dissertation
The Fractionation of the Yttrium
Earths-was carried out under DR..
Lenher, the authority on the rare
earths. Included in this yttruim
earth group of metals, and also as
sociated with them, are certain ele-
ments which are utilized by the
Welsbach Co. and other concerns in
the manufacture Of gas metals. OF
the celebrated Nernst tilaments, and
of the tilaments used in the tantalum
and tungsten lamps which have an
efficiency from 10 per cent to 300 per
cent greater than the ordinary elec-
trio lamp containing the carbon fila
ment. The value of an economical
separation of these elements from one
another is therefore of great CONNER
cial as we'll as scientific Importance.
DR.. Benner's work along this line has
been remarkably successful and will
be continued in making an investiga-
tion of the rare earth minerals OF
Arizona several of which have already
been found in the territory.
The University of Wisconsin, which
ranks first among the state universi-
ties in the number of students doing
graduate work, is puttingu up scheme
of buildings which are meant to ac-
commodate 10000 resident students;
and this is regarded as a conservative
forecast twenty years hence. The
equipment of the department of
chemistry is complete in every detail
and some idea may be formed of the
magnitude of the work carried on
when it is mentioned that the de-
partment was last year presented
with over a ton and a half of the
rare earths by the largest manufac-
turer of gas mantels in this country.
The gift was made in recognition of
the work on these substances which
has been carried on for some years by
Professor Lenher. A degree from
the strongest department of univer-
sity of this standing is therefore of
special signifcance.-Arizona Daily

NOT AN EXPERIMENT
Over a Million of Coles Patented
Stoves in Use in Ameri-
ca To-Day

Readers of this paper should not get
the idea that Coles Hot Blast is in
any sense an experiment.. 1t has been
proved supreme over all heating stoves
by years of use by hundreds of thou
sands of customers. Their annual
output of the famous Coles Hot Blast
from Chicago the original, is $4,000
stoves. They are in use in every state
of the Union in the homes of capital
lists and wage earners, and the most
ed at the factory of the Cole Manu-
featuring Co. in Chicago every day.
The reason the Coles Hot Blast is
three times over the biggest selling
soft coal heater is because the patent
ed features that make it remarkable
are controlled by the Cole Manufac-
turing Co., and, therefore, could not
be used on any other stove.
So Coles Hot Blast is backed by it's
astounding guarantee only after the
manufacturers have proved in thou
sands of cases absolutely everything
they guarantee.
We have letter from the President
of the Cole Manufacturing Co. author
izing us to guarantee every purchaser
of Coles Hot Blast in this way:
Coles Hot Blast is guaranteed to
to reduce the fuel bill a third over
any lower draft stove of the same size;
guaranteed to hold fire from Saturday
night until Monday morning; guaran-
teed to have smoke proof feed door;
guaranteed to remain air tight as
long as used; guaranteed to give uni
form heat day and night with soft
coal, hard coal or Ignite; guaranteed
to use less hard coal for heating a
given space than any base burner
with same size fire pot, and guaran-
teed to heat the rooms from one to
three hours in the morning with the
fuel put in the day before (which does
away with kindling or rebuilding the
fire each morning.)
This is making a great heater busi-
ness for us, and should at least in
duce every reader of this paper to
see them before buying their heater
this winter.

dismissal.
