Fifth THAT II will inconvience the

Sixth. THAT persons will not bay
meat from a case because they cannot
handle it before buying.
The four propositions appearing
in the first succession may be an
swered together. The Board of Health
had no idea of requiring or even at
tempting Of requiring of any farmer
that he transport or store large show
cases. such as those seen In our dry
goods and grocery stores, or even
those more substantial ones as seen
in our own up-tO-date meat stores.
II has been explained again and again
to the farmers. singly and to their
delegation which visited the Board
of Health that the full requirements
would be met should a large square
butter tub be used, one side of which
being fitted with a pane of glass,
large enough to permit inspection of
its contents. This glass could be
readily protected during transport or
storage by wooden shutter on -'emov'

market In this fashion, of course, not
in panel cases, and the tubs when
filled with butter caused no complaint

ment at Point Lookout, Md.

Acting Secretary Oliver has made a
contract with the Van Amringe Granite
Company of Boston for the construction
Of q suitable monument. to cost $4,000
complete. in the Confederate cemetery
near the post once Of Cornfield Harbor.
at Point Lookout, Nd. at the mouth of
the Potomac river. This action is taken
in conformity with a recommendation
made just before his death by Gen. Oates,
federal commissioner for marking the
graves Of Confederate soldiers and sailors
who died in northern prisons during the
civil war.
The bodies Of 1888 Confederate soldiers
and sailors were buried in the cemetery
at Point Lookout, and the monument is to
be erected to their Joint memory, because
it was found impossible to identity the
many bodies and mark the graves with
individual headstones, as was contem-
plated by tho act of Congress creating
the commission.
The contract requires, however, that
the monument shall bear the name, rank
Gf other than private), company and regi-
ment of all the known dead, together with
an inscription in larger letters showing
that 1t il erected Ito properly mark the
resting place Of the officers and men of

MINNESOTA PRIMARIES
TO Be HELD TOMORROW
Every Representative But Two
Opposed for denomination.
Fight on Tawney.

ST. PAUL, September 19.-Primary cleo
tomorrow. when Congress, county and
legislative nominees will be selected by
the various parties.
Much interest has been taken in the
congressional campaigns about the fights
made on Representatives James A. .Taw-
ney in the first district, Fred c. Stevens
in the fourth and F. M. Nye in the fifth
district
With the exception of Representative
c. r. Davis in the third and A. J. Vol
sted in the seventh. both of whom have
clear field, every Minnesota member has
a fight for nomination this year with a
candidate running on an avowed pro
gressive" platform.
Warmest Fight on Tawney.
The warmest fight is the one in the
first district, both on account of Mr..
Tawney's prominence and because Gift
ford Pinchot. F. J. Heney and Theodore
Roosevelt have taken a hand In the cam
paign against the incumbent. Sidney An
derson, a young attorney of Lanesboro,
is the progressive candidate, and he is
said to be giving Mr.. Tawney the hardest
fight of his career.
In three other districts progressives
are making fights that are attracting
attention, although the prospect of the
defeat of the present men is said to be
small. In the fourth, Hugh T. Halbert OF
St. Paul Is fighting F. c. Stevens, A. II.
Sail is after the seat of F. NJ. Nye in
the fifth, and Alex. Mcknight is pitted
against c. B. Miller in the eighth. H.
o. Bjorge is contesting Halver Steener-
sons seat, but the latter feels confident
of reelection. In the second district
two republicans are contesting for the
right to run against Representative w.
S. Hammond, as the latter Is reasonably
certain of getting the democratic nomina-
ton.
1t is generally predicted that there will
be more democrats in the state legisla-
ture this year than ever before. The
question Of county option has been ad-
vanced in districts where there are di-
visions, and there are some interesting
contests on.

tons. the output of news printing paper
amounted to 1O1 24O tons in June and d.
