The following resolutions were I'M

of inaction, permitted large immigra-

COOLEY AT WILLMAR.
Says Drainage and Good Foundation
Good Roads Necessity.

Willmar. and good
foundation are the two great essen
tials in road making" said George W..
Cooley, engineer and secretary of the
state highway commission, in address
ing the good roads rally here. "Of
course material means something, too,
but it is really secondary. Even sand
or gumbo, if treated right, can make
fair roads. The only trouble is that
we have paid but little attention to
the science of road making, and still
less to maintenance.
"The highway commission is doing
it's best to show the people how to
make the right kind of roads, but it
is handicapped by the fact that Min
nesota has no law of maintenance.
We need such law, and need it
badly"
Mr.. Cooley illustrated his lecture
with views taken on his recent trip
through Europe.
The rally was the most successful
ever held in this part of the state.
Pathmasters and town supervisors
from every part of the country were
present and there were representa-
tives from neighboring counties.

DEMOCRATS IN MILL CITY,
Apportionment of Delegates Is Based
on Last GubernatoriaI Vote.

Minneapolis.-M has been
selected as the place of the Demo
cratic state convention by the execu-
tive committee of the Democratic state
central committee. The date is July
%. The county convention will be
held July % and the primaries July
20, unless otherwise provided by the
county committee.
The appointment of delegates calls
for convention of 1,043 delegates.
The apportionment is based on the
vote cast for Governor Johnson in the
last election. One delegate is allowed
to each 200 votes cast for Governor
Johnson and each county is given two
delegates-at-large, with the exception
of Hennepin, Ramsey and st. Louis,
which are given five delegates-at-large.
This gives Hennepin county 142 del
egates, Ramsey 200 delegates and st.
Louis so delegates.
The time for the giving two dele
gates-at-large to each county with five
delegates-at-large to the three largest
counties was proposed in opposition to
the plan of the Republicans of giving
five delegates-at-large to every county,
thus giving the counties outside of the
cities bigger vote in the convention.

Terrors of Frankness.

There is no worse vice than
frankness," said Booth Harrington, at
a farewell dinner in New York prece-
dent to his departure for Europe.
"How should I feel, for example, if
asked you for your opinion of my
plays, and you answered me frankly,
quite frankly?
why, I should feel like the poor
lady at the bridge drive who said to
her hostess little daughter:
Your eyes are such heavenly
blue. And what color are my eyes,
darling?'
"The child's high treble travelled
easily to the further corner of the
quiet room as she replied, looking
earnestly up into her questioner's
face:
"'Dwab middles, yellow whites
and wed wims!'"

Mr.. STEWART WILL
ECCENTRIC MINNEAPOLIS MIL
LIoNAIRE LEAVES 100000
TO CHARITY.
RELATIVES GET SMALL BEPUESTS
Brother In Maine Gets the Remainder,
Amounting to Five to
Ten Million
Dollars.

Minneapolis. - With the single ex-
ception of gifts of $4,000 each to two
Minneapolis charitable institutions and
$4,000 for the maintenance of the
Stewart Memorial library at Corinna,
Maine, the millions of the late ELDER"
Levi M. Stewart are bequeathed to his
relatives and friends. In all, cash be-
qests of $486,000 are made, the rest
of the estate being awarded to David
e. Stewart, Corinna, Maine, brother of
the decedent, to be disposed of as he
orders.
The will was taken from the safe
of the late capitalist in his Kasota
building offices and read in the Henne-
pin county court. 1t does not reveal
the extent of the wealth of Elder
Stewart, but it indicates that his prop
erty may be valued at from $4,000, 900
to $12,000,O00. The bulk of it is given
to the brother, the other relatives
being provided for in definite cash be-
quests.
Fate of Dwelling Undecided.
The little dwelling at Fourth street
and Hennepin avenue, nestled in the
shadow of the towering buildings
around that important corner, and
about the disposition of which there
has been great interest, probably will
remain unaltered for several years at
least. The will expresses the wish
that Mr.. and Mrs. l.. H. Gordon, who
lived with the Elder" in the little
house for many years, continue to
occupy it, rent free, until the estate
decides what shall be done with it.
1t is thought that Elder" Stewart
gave his brother explicit instructions
relative to the disposition of this prop
erty as well as other realty holdings in
Minneapolis.
Say Building Is Planned.
But two of the heirs of Elder
Stewart say the estate will not long
allow the little frame house to stand
on Hennepin avenue. The corner is to
be improved by the construction of
modern business block as soon as
the estate is settled.
Only 100000 of the vast estate of
the lawyer-capitalist remains in the
possession of Minneapolitans. This in
cludes the requests of $4,000 each to
the Home for Children and Aged Wo-
men and to the Home for the Aged
and Little Sisters of the Poor, and
100000 each to Lettie M. Crafts, Henry
M. Crafts and Leo M. Crafts.
The state will probably get about
100000 as tax on the estate.
