Record 0rde rFor Railway Dis
patching Apparatus Placed
.hY Santa Fe.

The adoption of the telephone
as a substitute for the telegraph
to perform the work. of dispatch
ing trains is a matter Of only the
past couple of years yet the i'm
prOvement has spread with rapid
ity over a great many of the larg-
est railways of the United States.
This is especially true in the west,
where many of the trunk lines
have spent big sums in standard
izing on the telephone method Of
handling train movements.
The Atchison, Topeka and San
ia Fe, which was one of the first
of the railroads to take up the tel
ephOne method of diSpatching,
now has the largest mileage OF
telephoned tracks. When improv
ments now under way are COM
pleted, in the neighbOrhOOd of
1000 miles of telephone lines will
be used by this road alone.
An example of the care these
western roads are putting into the
equipment of the telephone cir
cults is the order for Western
Electric solicitors recently placed
by the Santa Fe. This railroad
has bought 600 of these selectOrs
which exceeds by more than 4OO
the largest order for this kind
If apparatus ever before record
ed.
The selectOr is a device used for
ringing singly the several stations
along any one telephone line. the
installation of the new selectlVe
device on this road will mean a
distinct advance in its dispatchlnlg
equipment. -

Prohibition Party stands and al
ways has stood for any legislation

Prohibition Party stands and al.
ways has stood for any Legislation
that would enlarge the right oil
the citizen to vote the saloon out
by localities or counties. Moreover,
we can say what no other organiza.
tion can say-that we never sup.
ported for election any candidate
that did not stand squarely and un.
equivocally committed to that propo.
sition. Yet we recognize that
neither local or county remedies
can cure a state wide sore. As
honest Abe Lincoln used to say
"We have constantly brought for
ward small cures for great sores;
plasters too small to cover the
wound" In that category falls any
local or county remedy. We stand
for the prohibition Of the manufac.
ture and sale of intoxicating drinks.
Anything less than that is a tinker's
remedy and putters the job. We
believe the ultimate right is pres.
ent wisdom and we will make GU,
fight for a dry state.''

- Lutheran Church OF America. ~

University representatives also de-
livered greetings.
In the afternoon Denkman
memorial service was held, Rev. H.
L. Jacobs of Philadelphia making
the address. In the evening Presi-
dent Andreen gave a reception at
Cable Hall and a number of college
alumni meetings and banquets were
held.
On Thursday occurred the COM
mencement when the graduates of
Augustana and others were given
degrees.
Thursday afternoon, the Wenner-
berg chorus gave a fine concert,
and no exercises were held in the
evening, which gave opportunity
for class and other gatherings of an
impromptu nature.
On Thursday evening the Synod
ical sermon was delivered by Dr..
Erik Norelius. and a festal ode was
read by the author, DR.. Ludwig
Holmes. The service was preceded
by the dedication of the jubilee
hall as church.
On Friday the Synod listened to
the official message of it's president
and appointed committees. I'm
pressive services were held in the
evening, a number of addresses be-
ing made.
Today was the jubilee festival of
the Synod, the greatest day of all.
In the morning high mass was cele-
brated followed with the main ad-
dress by Bishop Won Scheele. He
carried on this occasion his official
silver staff, which was rather an
unusal sight on American soil.
Only on one occasion previous has
this staff been used outside of the
diocese. and that was at Jerusalem
when the Lutheran church there
built by Emperor William of Ger
many, was dedicated. The bishops
address was a profound effort on
the subject of the conflict in the
realm of religious thought.
In the afternoon. the entire syn
cd, officials, college faculties, dis
tinguished visitors. clergymen and
lay delegates formed in procession
and marched to the jubilee hall. It
was an imposing sight. The entire
afternoon until nearly seven
O'Clock was consumed in hearing
greetings from old Sweden in the
first place, represented by the

On Wednesday morning the Off
cial greetings were delivered. The
Swedish gentlemen appeared in
their full regalia and robes as did
a number of presidents of Ameri-
can colleges who were present.
There was an imposing procession
from cable Hall to the Jubilee Hall.
Bishop Won Scheele delivered greet
ings from Sweden bound up in mag
; nificent portfolios, some written in
Swedish and others in Latin. Rec
tor Magnifikus Schuck likewise de-
livered the official greetings from
the Universities of :. Upsala and

the response in Latin. A large

formation was but slowly accepted
by the masses, but when it had won
them over they were the first to
come to it's defense.
Tuesday evening the program
was dedicated to ''Greater August
ana," and the chief speaker was
Gov. A. 0. Eberhart of Minnesota.
The governor was given tremend-
Gus ovation and made a very credit
able address, frequently using Swe-
dish quotations to the delight of
the audience. The college, boys
gave him rousing cheers at the
close of his speech. Rev. E. Me-
lander of Los Angeles made an elo-
quent address in which he described
a vision he had seen of the great
Swedish-American Augustana uni
versity of fifty years hence. The
Wennerberg chorus sang both
American and Swedish national
songs and the oratorio chorus rend-
cred 'Landkjending''. At the
close of the evening session the STU

The fore going is a very meager
outline of the big events of this

ing. The writer could not help
but regret that our home county
was not more generally represent
ed. There are hundreds of people
who have faithfully labored and
sacrificed in the upbuilding of the
great Augustana synod, and they
would have greatly enjoyed the
magnificent programs and been en-
couraged and enthused in their
work by being present and rejoic-

The presence of the four able
Swedish gentlemen has added
very interesting part to the pro-
grams, and is a proof that the
work that has been done to perpet-
uate Swedish culture on American
soil as contribution to the up
building of American institutions

Prohibition State Convention

The Prohibition state conven-
tion has been called to meet in the
city of Minneapolis on Friday,
July LIST, at 10 a. m. to nominate a
state ticket, elect a state central
committee, and transact other ap-
propriate business.
The basis of representation is
three delegates at large from each
county and one additional delegate
for each 10 votes or major fraction
thereof cast for George D. Haggard
for governor in 1908. Kandiyohi
is entitled to Is delegates.
For the past three campaigns the
party has centered its efforts on the
legislature, and while the men in
a position to forecast the nature
of this campaign insist that the
chief effort this year will be along
the same lines, yet it is evident
that they will take advantage of
what they deem favorable situa-
tion for a strong gubernatorial
fight.
1T will be a banner year for
the Prohibition Party" said George
w. Higgins. the present chairman
of the state committee. The last
campaign in the face of the fercest
opposition, we scored a net increase
in our legislative vote of over
$1,000, and the men we elected
more than made good. Not only
did they secure a larger amount of
legislation of more important char.
acter than either of the old parties
but they showed by an unbroken
record that they could be relied up.

islators on every question that came
before that body.'
1.-The Prohibitionists have suf.
fered in the past on account of the
peculiar conditions that have exis.
ted here as to Governor. The vot.
ers have chosen a Democrat chief
executive at the same time they
have elected by large pluralities
a Republican state ticket. We
have suffered between the upper
and neither mill store and our
gubernatorial candidate has re.
ceived about third of the support
given the rest of the ticket. This
year the conditions are apt to be
different. 1t is easily conceivable
that good strong guhernatoria]

lead of the general state, ticket. -
