P. n. McGarry of Walker, Congress
si0nal Candidate, Makes Sank
Centre a Visit

z. H. McGarry Of Walker visited
Sank Centre last Friday in the in
terest of his candidacy for the con-
gressionaI nomination in the sixth
district.
Mr.. McGarry spent day here and
met numerous citizens, obtaining
from them information as to the
local situation relative TO Mr.. Lind
bergh's strength hereabouts.
Mr. McGarry is hustler, good
mixer and fine fellow to meet. He
says it is mistake to suppose that
he has entered the race in the interest
of anybody but himself. He feels
that, it is perfectly legitimate for any
citizen to cherish congressional aspir-
ations, and that he is satisfied there
is sufficient opposition to Mr.. Lind
bergh to warrant his entering the
race. against him.
Mr.. McGarry took occasion to con-
mend The Herald for IFS stand on the
matter of political advertising. He
says such advertising should be paid
for the same as mercantile advertis-
ing, and thatft is eminently unfair to-
expect the publisher. of , newspaper
to boom seeker after Office and be
paid in ''jolly" and wind. He says
ne has money enough to defray the
expenses of his campaign and that he
proposes to spend some in legitimate
advertising in the papers.

WOMAN
Fine Recommendation for Mrs. FAN
ME French Morse, Who'll Come
to Sank Centre Soon

The following letter, which The
Hdrald obtains through the courtesy
of the Board of Control, testifies fur
Their to the ability of Mrs. Fannie
French Morse, who will soon come to
Minnesota to assume the duties of
superintendent of the girls school at
Sank Centre:
Chairman Board of Control, State
of Minnesota, Dear Sir: AS Chair
man of the Board of trustees of the
Lyman and Industrial Schools, have
been in very close touch with Mrs.
Morse in her work during her admin
istration of superintendent for near
ly nine years past.
"As you are well aware, perhaps no
work is more difficult and none makes
larger demands than the effort to
reform such unfortunate girls as are
committed to the Industrial School,
affording such training of hand, cul-
tivation of mind and development of
the moral nature as shall make It
possible for these girls to safely take
their place in the community, with
reasonable hope of becoming honest
and pure-minded women.
: "Mrs. Morse has overcome the diff
cuties of this work and solved the
perplexing problems inherent in it
with a rare degree of success, which
has been recognized by those most
familiar with work of this sort, both
at home and abroad;in fact, under her
care the school has generally come to
be regarded as model Of. what such
a school should be.
"Mrs. Morse has unusual power of
initiative, not waiting for suggestions
from others; she has introduced new
lines of training, wisely adapting
them to the condition and capacity
of the girls. AS business woman
she has an all round ability rarely
met with.
"a careful comparative study of all
our state, charitable institutions
made In the two years past, shows
that in shrewd buying of supplies and
economy Of administration the In
dustrial School is unexcelled. -.
fHer success in securing people
well qualified for their; work has been
gratifying. She is kind, wise, SYM
pathetic friend of the girls, exercising
. most helpful influence upon them.

of honor, Of fine grain, of intellectual

FOUR SCORE YEARS
Mrs. w. S. Richards Reaches the
Advanced Age Of Eighty and
Celebrates

Monday marked the eightieth mile
stone that Mrs. w. S. Richards has
passed since she entered this world.
During the afternoon a number of
her friends and neighbors gave her a
surprise and very pleasant afternoon
was passed by all. Among other
-emsmbrances of the occasion were
one hundred souvenir postal cards,
sent by loving relatives and friends.
These are greatly priced by the re-
cipient. Mrs. Richards husband died
some two years ago and since that
time she has made her home with her
daughter Mrs. Geo. N. Rice. Al
though she has reached an advanced
age Mrs. Richards retains her facul-
ties well and is hearty old lady.

'We realize that call to organize
a new school from the beginning and
to administer it along lines tested

governor in sympathy with their
cause.

I understand that many of them
are inclined to favor the selection OF
S. Y. Gordon of Traverse county
whose candidacy has, recently been
announced. Mr.. Gordon is perhaps
better known as newspaper man
than as politician. He is editor of
one of the leading papers of the state
and is a vigorous writer. He has been
consistent advocate of reform. He is
not a man with one idea. He is fair.
He is not tied up to any interests. Ii
the county optionists favor him it is
because they have confidence in his
honesty, and that, were he the sem
ate's presiding officer, he would give
them square deal and not organize
the senate with the view of giving
their opponents an advantage.
1t turned out that an important
purpose of those who attended the
conservation convention at Bemidji
was to conserve their political rights.
They want reapportionment. Other
things they want, too. They want
good roads. They want them bad.
In connection with this they want
the state to adopt a different policy
with regard to its land. The admin
istrator of the land department, in
recent years especially, has had the
effect of discouraging the settlement
or the northeastern part of the state.
There are many who think that pio-
neer settlers should be encouraged
rather than harassed.
incidentally Bob Dunn came in for
a good deal of friendly mention, both
at this convention and at the meeting
of the editorial association. His prop
position that a mill tax be levied for
road purposes is meeting with very
general favor especially in the north
ern part of the state where roads are
hard to build and where they are es-
sential if settlers are to be attracted.
And really the money would be much
better spent than in providing APP
proaches and broad boulevards lead
ing to the marble palace as advocated
by some. y

the wire first.

During the past week Miss Mabel
Johnson has not let any grass grow
under her feet. She .polled the big
gest vote for the week and moved up
to second place, just few votes be-
hind the leader. First thing she
knows she'll be at the head of the
procession. :
Last nights count settled the spec
ial prizes. The $500 goes to Miss
Burmeister, she having secured the
largest number of subscribers during
the month in the counties Of Stearns,
Todd, Douglas and Pope. Miss John
son and Miss MAXWELL tie for second
prize, $3.50. If these two young
ladies will call at The Herald Office at
4 o'clock Saturday afternoon of this
week, The Herald will arrange for
them to settle the tie. An agree
ment can be easily reached.
Miss Johnfon walks away, easily,
with the third prize, $500, for the
greatest number of votes polled since
the count of Feb. .. Her votes count
up Is, $50 for that period, Miss Bur-
meister following with 1895.
Miss Burmeister wins fourth prize,

IMPORTANT RUL-
ING BY U. 5. court

The eonstitutionality of the recla
tion act was upheld Tuesday by the
United States circuit court of appeals
at San Francisco, which sustained the
decision of the Idaho district court in
favor of the government in the case
of David Burley against the United
States.
Burley contended that the act which
permitted the government to condemn
his lands and water for irrigation pur-
poses was unconstitutional, on the
ground that. water stored in the reser-
voirs sought to be taxed was not wholly
for public use, but for private, as it
was to be supplied private owenrs by
the government.
The decision established the right of
the secretary of the interior to acquire,
by condemnation or otherwise lands
and waters in the furtherance of any
reclamation project. 1t also extends
the right of the government to take
over any needed private water rights
in carrying out the povisions of the
act 1t directly affects the disburse-
ment of the 500 100000 recently appro-
priated by congress for reclamation
projects in the west. and will permit
the resumption of work which had
been suspended pending final decis-
ion of the legal questions involved.

Last evening James Fraser, who left

road he was thrown from the seat. one
OF the wagon wheels passed over his

tance Of three inches down from the
shoulder
The Toulouse was notified, when w
+. twist went out and took the unfor.
tunate man to the house. DIR. Swezy
was summoned by telephone, but was
somewhat delayed in arriving, owing
to the fact that there was no auto
available and he was compelled to
make the trip by team. Upon his ar
rival at the Toulouse, DIR. Swezy dress
ed the injured arm and Fraser will be
brought to town today The injury is
very serious and will probably result in
the amputation of the arm.
