Promptly at 7:4O the college bell

a familiar march, and the procession
fell in line in the order named above,
followed by the various divisions OF
the faculty in the same order, the
college faculty with President Frost
bringing up the rear. The course OF
the procession was across the campus
and the street due north and then
behind Lincoln Hall to the Chapel
and around the chapel and down the
walk to the street; then down the

For the past three weeks The Citi-
zen's summary of the political situa-
ton has been crowded out by various
articles Of pressing interest. The
last summary was under the caption
MORE BREAKERS" and dealt chief
ly with the snubbing of Mr.. Roose-
welt by the New York Republican
Committee, and concluded with a
prophecy and a plea for the suspen-
sion of judgment till Mr.. Roosevelt
could be heard on his western tour.
And now he has been heard, and

Taft's Shaft.
The first rift in the cloud was
made by President Taft in reply TO
telegram of Mr.. Griscom, chairman
of the New York county committee,
who said that the impression had
been left by Vice-Pres. Sherman and
the committee that turned Mr. Roose-
welt down that the president was il
sympathy with their action, and had
knowledge of it before its occurrence,
and that this impression was grow
ing. Mr. Taft not only entered a
strong denial of any knowledge that
the committee had any such intentions
but showed. by producing a telegram
sent to Mr.. Sherman, that he had
advised the fullest and freest con-
sultation with Mr.. Roosevelt.
Its Triple Effect.
The effect of the Presidents let
ter was as If a bomb had been thrown
into the ranks of Mr.. Sherman's COM
mittee, and the President himself
went up a number of notches in the
popular favor. 1t was clear TO every
one that the Vice-President had been
party to a scheme to make a tool
of Mr.. Taft to advance the political
interests of the Albany gang. Another
effect of the letter was to clear the
lists for Mr.. Roosevelts activity,

congressman Lindbergh and Davis
seem to be the only simon. pure in
sugents in the Minnesota ranks. After
the insurgents and democrats had
outvoted the regular republicans. on
the proposition that the house and not
the speaker-which is the same thing
as the regulars-select the committee
from the house on the Ballinger
matter, the insurgents agreed to go
into a caucus with the regulars to
select the committee James of
Kentucky and Rainey of Illinois had
been selected to represent the demo-
Gratis. At the republican caucus, al
though opposed to both, the name of
Ralney only was dropped and Lloyd
of Missouri, another democrat, was
selected in his stead. This evidently
looked pretty much like breaking faith
on the part of the insurgents and Lind
bergh and Davis, with four members
from Wisconsin, bolted the caucus. 1t
is q question whether any democrat
will consent to serve in Rainey's
stead. There Is some class to the stand
taken by Lindbergh and Davis.

STANDS IN WITH RANK AND
FILE.

Cheney in Minneapolis Journal: The
sixth district is honeycombed with
opposition to e. A. Lindhergh, who
has made trouble for himself in nearly
every county by unwise handling of
patronage. The original Lindbergb
men are in high dudgeon over the
treatment they have received. Most
of the plums, they say, have been
given to the enemy, and yet the old
Buchanan machine is far from being
Lindbergh's. His organization IS in
poor shape. It seemed certain for
months that Lindbergh would have a
fight in the primaries, but the crisis
at Washington has come just in time
for him, apparently. He has stood
practically outside the party and his
rank insurgency has offended the
regulars at home, but the lnsurgent
cause is the popular one and Lind
bergh is stronger with the rank and
tile than ever. It seems evident that
under the primary law he could
win al denomination without the
politicians aid, and they are begin
ming to realize tho futillty of q: fight
under the present conditions. The
direct primary Is free.for- all, and
some ambitious soul may try his hand
as candidate, but another term for
Llndbergh looks now like certainty.

Thursday of last week g. F. Nc
Donald, of st. Cloud, rounded out his
35th year as editor of the st. Cloud
Times. As Editor Mcdonald looks
back over his labor of IS years. he
must feel recompensed to great de-
gree, as he has seen his paper grow
into the front ranks of country
journalism ana influence. and can also
see the effect of his efforts IN the up
building OF st. Cloud and Stearns
county. It IS not the least, however,
to know that he has been kindly
remembered on this occasion, by 'the
boys of bis own establishment, with
whom he daily came IN contact. for
they presented him with beautiful
silver loving cup. We congratulate
Brother Mcdonald, and trust that we
can read his excellent editorials for
many years to come.

There IS going to be a big county
option meeting in st. Paul soon, and
indications are that it will be
attended by men who can stir things
up politically if they desire. J. F.
jacobson is expected to take an active
part, and others of all shades of
political complexion will be there 1t
IS more than likely that other ques-
lions in addition to county option
will be discussed, and a movement
may be started which Will be tar
reaching. In some parts of the state
the county option issue is acute. and
made more SO by the foolishnass. as
we'll as injustice, of the action of the
house of representatives in shutting
off debate on the question. There IS
no better way OF vitallzing an issue
than to subject 1t to legislative
arrogance. The people are entitled to
hear both sides and all about every
question, and then let the popular
Judgment rule through the vote of the
people. The Herald believes this to be
the right doctrine, without reference
to the merits or dement's of county
option or any other proposition.

Says Senator Clapp, who takes
another swipe at the Payne. Aldrlch
tariff bill: !.
The item of jute. fax and hemp,
divided, I think, into 100 odd classiti"
cations OF threads and yarns. There is
reduction of ITO per cent on those
threads and yarns. Are the people
liable to buy any of those threads and

there Is 10 per cent reduction on
threads ana yarns, there is one IN
crease of 80 per cent on the finished
product, and that is what the
American people buy if they buy at
all.

tariff downward they reduced the
tariff on Philippine cutlery! And

worth of Philippine cutlery imported

For the first time in its history the
state of Rhode Island has an executive
with veto power. The constitutional
amendment providing the veto power
for the governor was adopted by the
people last fall after years of
struggle. Governor Pothier, the first
governor Of Little Rhody with the
veto power, is of French Canadian
descent, and his election as chief ex-
ecut1ve of a state once exceedingly
conservative along racial and religious
lines, IS evidence of the growing
strength of the Canadian French IN
New England. Many New England
cities, such as Fall River, Lowell
Lynn, Holyoke, Providence, and
Worcester, have q very large French
population, constantly growing. 1t
will only be a matter of few years
when comparatively new racial ole
ments IN New England, the Irish,
French, Polish, Portuguese and Italian
will greatly influence, if.'not dominate
the political and industrial conditions
IN New England Boston is greater
Irish city than Dublin. Worcester and
FAN River have larger French
nopulations than most any town In
Canada excepting the two largest. A
change is coming which will make,
and IS already making, New England
very different from the New England
of old. There is no good reason to
fear that the culture, the high
ideals, and the broad humanity of
the New England of Lowell and
Phillips, will be lost, a Though new
men In new ways will express the
good that was and still persists.

Lynn Haines' pamphlet on the
Minnesota Legislature OF 1909 may
have some mistakes IN 1T, but we
rather think the mistakes, If there
be any, are not many or important.
But we do believe that the vital facts
therein should be known to every
voter and taxpayer in the state. The
stamp of sincerity is on the r:oduc.
tion. The authors honesty and
devotion to the public welfare is
commended in preface slnged by 5.
M. Owen, Willis W. West, T. J.
Knox, John II. Grass and Stiles P.
Jones. The bearers of those signatures
are not lmpulsive, rash. or light
headed Their endorsement means
something. Perusal of the pamphlet
will show something of the methods
of the interests who use legislatures to
achieve selfish ends The interests
are cunning and keen. They know
how to work on the minds of men,
how to utilize the weaknesses land
folbles of humanity and they are
always on the job" MI. Haines
will be revived. His motives and that
of those encouraging HIM will be
questioned. Nevertheless, the people
have right to know the truth, that
knowing it, they may use the power
OF the ballot justly.

instances furnish machinery for the
work. The people Of the community
to be benefited are expected to furnish
common labor and teams and to have
competent men on hand who are to be
taught methods of road construction
under the conditions that prevail in
that community. After the piece Of
experimental road is built 1t is expect
ed that the good work shall 60 on.
One of the recent works begun by
the Office of public roads is the con-
struction of a road from the station at
OccoQuan, Va, to the old town Of Oc-
coquan, a distance Of two and half
miles. The road was a good sample Of up
hill and down dale, with mud almost
any depth, until the experts in road
building got hold Of and improved it.
In order to obtain the assistance Of
the department application must be
made by the properly constituted local
authorities who have legal control of
the roads in their community. The as
sistance given is intended to be purely
educational. The ability Of the depart
ment to furnish machinery Is a great
help to many communities, as in that
way the local authorities get a prac-
teal demonstration of just what they
are expected to purchase for continu-
ance of the work. The department Sc
cured funds for the purchase Of ma
chinery, which it shifts from place to
place as it is needed in it's expert
mental work.
The department has begun expert
mental roads in many parts of the
country from the Atlantic to the Pa
cilc and from the Canadian line to the
gulf. Each section requires a some
what different plan Of improvement,
and each time experts make plans for
a community they add to their fund OF
information on the conditions affecting
road building in various sections. 1t
Is expected that in the course OF few
years the effect of this campaign for
good roads will be seen very plainly
throughout the United States. There
are advocates of national aid for road
building, and it is not unlikely that
strong effort will be made in the next
congress to have all appropriation for
this purpose In many localities in
which instruction in the building of
good roads and education as to their
desirability are most needed the peo-
ple are unable to secure enough money
to do their part toward the construc-
ton of the object lesson road. It Is
believed that if such communities were
given one piece Of road as an object
lesson it would not be long before they
would provide. means for continuing
the work on other roads. This, Is one
Of the arguments that will be used in
favor of national aid, and there are
4 good many people who believe that
congress Wilt take up this work and
put it through to conclusion so that q
great impetus toward road construction
will be had all over the United states

intact.
The new color scheme made the

admirably as background for twoI

attractiveness of the apartment.
The old grained woodwork gave way

of the most widely read by poll
