promise of being a hard-fought one

last Saturday and should the Million
aires drop another one tomorroy they
would be lower in the League stand
ing than they have ever been. Man
ager Garrett, however, is not expect
ing defeat, and is looking to Murray
to win tomorrow's game. Murray sue
ceeded Charley Lucas in the box last
Saturday and held Gas Company

every respect and he expects to come
back tomorrow stronger than ever

pitching for Riverview.

Riverview and Everson at Front and
Union streets.

committee of prominent ST. Paul citi-
zens greeted President Taft as he step

Surrounded by this committee of
prominent persOnages, intermlngling
with whom were a half a dozen secret
service men, dozen detectives
picked from the forces of other cities
and as many more from the st. Paul
department, the president was hurried
to an exit of the station where he
entered an automobile and was taken
to the reviewing stand in Rice Park
opposite the postofIice where be wit
messed the Labor Day Parade.
In the automobile With the president
were Governor Eberhart of Minnesota
and Mayor Herbert p. Keller Of st.
Paul. AS the Presidents car sped up
Fourth street thousands stood on the
sidewalks and welcomed him with
cheers. The president bowed his ac-
ceptance and his well known smile
was much in evidence. He seemed
pleased with the great display of the
national coors and flags and the first
view he got of his own picture beside
that of Theodore Roosevelt brought
forth good natured grin.
When the parade was over the pre-
sident was hurried to a private en-
trance to the auditorium where thou
sands of voices cheered his appearance
on the stage to address the Conser-
tation Congress. His speech complet-
ed, the president left the great audi
tOrium midst a storm of applause. He
again entered an automobile and was
conveyed to the new st. Paul hotel
where he was shown TO his suite for
short rest.
Following luncheon with the COVER
nors and other prominent men, the
president again entered an automobile
and was conveyed to the state fair
grounds where he spoke before a nam

Saint Paul.-The city of st. Paul
had as her guest Tuesday the coun-

and the people of the Gateway to the
Northwest did everything in their
power to make his stay pleasant.
Col Roosevelt came to St Paul
from Minneapolis in an automobile at
a speed that was dazzling to say the
least. He had arrived in the town
made famous by its flour mills from
Fargo, at 7:15. After breakfast in
Minneapolis, the former president,
accompanied by Governor Eberhart
and Mayor Keller of this city, and
Governor Stubbs of Kansas, started
for st. Paul.
When the automobiles drew up at
the ST Paul hotel there was a crowd

While trial was in progress before
Justice John j. Brady in his branch
of the New York Supreme court the
other day he astonished the lawyers
and court attendants by reaching un-
der the voluminoGs folds of his black
gown and drawing forth a big red
apple from one pocket and knife
from the other. AS the lawyers went
on with their arguments he leisurely
pared the apple and ate 1t.
The incident struck the reporters
covering the trial as unusual, so they
wrote something about 1t, which ap-
peared in the newspapers the next
day. When the same trial was in
progress the following day Justice
Brady interrupted the proceedings and
said, with a twinkle in his eye:

press desire to retire, they may do

committee was called to order by Chair
man Senator knute Nelson at the
West hotel at 8 a. m, Monday, and
after a brief discussion it was decided
to postpone the meeting.
Senator Root May Come.
The attractions of the Conservation
congress together with the fact that
two or three members of the commit
tee cannot be in the city until later in
the week, are responsible for the post
pOnement of the meeting. Senator
Root has not yet landed from Europe.
Congressman DENLY, of Michigan,
is not expected until Wednesday. The
primary elections are held in Michi-
gan, Wednesday. Indications are that
eleven of the twelve committeeman
will be in the city. The only absent one
will be Senator Frank Flint, of Cali
fornia, who is in Europe. Senator Pur-
cell, of Wahpeton, n. D., has arrived.
Report Net Completed.
The members of the committee are
equally emphatic in their denial OF the
statement that a report has been form
ulated and the meeting was called SIM
ply to make an official announcement
of it.
Representative James M. Graham of
Illinois said that as far as he is con-
cerned no decision has been reached,
and he added that he probably would
know of it had such action been TAX
en-. Like statements were made by all
the members of the committee. Chair
man Nelson declares the meeting here
was called for the purpose of formu.

PINCHOT SCORES TAWNEY.
Ex-Forester Makes Attack in the
Enemy's Country.

Rochester. Hon. Clifford Pinchot,
the noted deposed chief forester and
principal in the famous Ballinger-Pin-
chot controversy, was the principal
speaker at one of the biggest political
meetings ever held in this city. The
Metropolitan theater was packed to
the doors, people coming from the sur
rounding towns to hear the national
character Tawney and the attitude
of Tawney to Pinchot's bosom friend,
ex-President Roosevelt and his efforts
to break the Roosevelt program Of
establishing commissions for the bet
terment Of the commonwealth, furnish
ed the theme for the speaker.
There was no mistaking the stand
of Pinchot and his personal attitude
toward his former chief and toward
Tawney, his denunciation Of the con-
gressman from the First district being
most strongly spoken. Previous to the
speech by Mr. Pinchot, Sydney Ander-
son. the Progressive candidate of the
Republican party for congress, was in
troduced by Thomas Fraser, president
of the First District Progressive
league, and spoke about 45 minutes.

Farm produce today Is remunera-
tive, and this helps to make farm life
agreeable. Those who are studying
the economics Of the day tell us that
the strength of the nation lies In the
cultivation Of the soil. Farming Is no
longer a hand-to-mouth existence. 1t
means Independence, often afnuenca
but certainly Independence.
Calling at farm house, near one OF
the numerous thriving towns Of Al
berta. in Western Canada, the writer
was given a definition of "fndepen-
dance" that was accepted as quite
original. The broad acres Of the farm
er's land had a crop-and a splendid
one, too. by the way-ripening for the
reapers' work. The evenness Of the
crop, covering field after field, attract
ed attention, as did also the neatness
Of the surroundings, the wellbuilt sub

the wellrounded sides of the cattle,

and pleasant to listen to. He had

had. He had never farmed before, yet
his crop was excellent, giving evi-
denoe as to the quality Of the soil, and
the good Judgment that had been used
In Its preparation. And brains count

as he snilingly turned to the young

west home, to assist him by her wifely
help and companionship, in making q

Throughout q trip Of several hun

Of Western Canada. the writer found
the farmers In excellent spirits, an
optimistic feeling being prevalent
everywhere. It will be interesting to
the thousands On the American side
of the line to know that their rela-

that they have made their home In
