BATTLEFRONT SOUTH
MACBETH & GARDNER TO AR
RANGE FOR SHIPMENTS.
Situation in This Section Is Acute:
the Farmers Ought to Take Up the
Matter of Raising Livesock; Ready
Market and Good Prices; This
Branch Is Profitable at All Times.

From Thursdays Daily.
The situation in the beef market in
this section is becoming acute No
cattle are on feed IN this section, and
it is thought that beef will have to be
brought in from the south to supply
the local market. Charles f. Macbeth
expects to 90 to Texas next week to
look over the market there and see
whether he cannot arrange to secure
regular shipments to Mankato. If he
can do this, Macbeth & Gardner will
have two carloads week shipped
from Texas to supply their various
markets.
Situation Is Acute.
In speaking of this matter today,
Mr.. Gardner said: THE situation il
very acute For some reason, no cat
tie are on feed around here. 1t is like
ly that we shall have to buy southern
cattle up to grass time. In the south,
the season is two months ahead of
grass now Mr.. Macbeth is thinking
of taking trip down there about
next week to see what he can find.
Farmers Should Raise Cattle.
'The farmers ought to take up the
matter of raising more cattle and plac-
ing them on feed in winter. There
was no reason why more could not
have been on feed this winter, for
there is an abundance of feed. This
branch of farming is profitable, and
will continue to be, for the population
of the country is increasing fast, while
it is fact that there are less cattle
and hogs raised now than formerly.
'The shortage in beef ready for
killing does not apply to hogs and
sheep, for these can be had locally.
The farmers ought to go into the
raising of beef cattle more extensively"

DUE To LAWS DELAY
LYNCHING THE OUTGROWTH OF
HOOKWORM IN COURTS.
This Subject Is Discussed Before the
Civic Club Last Evening BY AttOr-
ney c. E. Phillips; History of
Illegal Hangings; Why of the
Mob; Another Speaker Dwelt Up
on the Race Question.
From Thursdays Daily.

From thursdays Daily.
That lynching, if not a nationa
crime, at least deserves of national
study and attention, was forcefully
brought out in a paper, read by At
torney C. E. Phillips, at the Civic
club meeting at the Y. NJ. c. A., last
evening. The paper referred to, showed
very careful thought and preparation
and was an interesting presentation
of the Lynch Law" The history OF
lynching was first discussed, showing
clearly that it was an effort on the
part of the early settlers of the west
TO protect themselves from the thieves
and claim jumpers of that day, be-
fore laws had been made and men
elected to see that these laws were
enforced.
Statistics seem to indicate that
lynching is on the decrease and that
lit now centers chiefly in the south
'ern states, where the race question
enters strongly. Mr.. Phillips suggested
several things that would help the sit
nation and lessen the number of lynch
ngs. The most important he con-
sidered was that OF getting quicker
action on the part of the courts, in
bringing offenders to justice and as
suring the people of melting out Sc
we're enough punishment. The delay
i'm the courts is the cause for the mob
'often taking the law into their own
hands and with some degree of JUS
tice Mr. Phillip Schweikhart led the
discussion with another interesting pa
per, dwelling more at length on the
race question. This was followed by
a general discussion in which most
of the men present took part.
This was the third regular meeting
of the club. AT the first meeting Mr..
w. F. Brooks read an interesting pa
per on "Arctic Exploration" Two weeks
ago Prof. A. NJ. Brace took the sub
ject of ''Municiple Government" which
was ably discussed by Walter San
born. On Wednesday night, March l6,
Prof. w. T. Crawford will present
the subject of Rapid Transit and
AIR Jay Wysong will lead the discus
sion.

STATE is TO BE ASKED FOR A
LOAN OF $4,000.
Money Will Be Devoted to the Erec-
ton of an Addition to the High
School Building; Special Election
Called For March I6; Superintend-
ent Sperry Reelected At a Salary
of Two Thousand Per Year.
From thursdays Daily.

From thursdays Daily.
The regular monthly meeting of the
hoard of education last night was one
OF the most important held in years
Every member was present during
at least part of the session, and
President Holbrook presided until
called away, after which Vice President
Blissenbach held the rens.
The election OF superintendent for
the ensuing year was taken up, and
Superintendent Sperry was chosen Tor
another year, by a unanimous vote
of the full board. With the same I'M
animity, his salary was fixed at $4,000
which is Il raise of 5000 over this year.
Superintendent Sperry, when informed
of the boards action, said that he was
deeply grateful for the honor and con
sideration shown him. He certainly
appreciated the increase of salary, bit
more than that he was pleased to
know that, apparently, he had given
satisfaction. He never had received
more loyal support, or done better or
h.sre successful work than this year
Miss Ida Lewis was unanimously
elected to fill the vacancy in the fifth
and sixth grades of the Pleasant Grove
school. caused by the resignation of
Miss Zula NJ. Ryan, and her salary
was fixed AT $50 month She
taught in the West Mankato school for
several years, and is a teacher of wide
experience.
Before the election Superintendent
Sperry explained to the board that
Miss Ryan's physician had ordered her
out of school for the balance of the
present year.
President Holbrook suggested that
the board members at least visit the
school in their own wards, as well "a
the high school, before the election
of teachers takes place, so as to be
prepared TO act fairly and do JUS
ice to the teachers
High Shoot Annex.
Another very important matter taken
up was that of building an annex
to the high school. This took up the
time of the greater part of the meet
ing The crowded condition Of the
high school has forced the board to
action and another building is Absolutely
necessary. 1t is merely question

fusing admittance TO the high school

for the building of the annex pro-
posed.
The president and secretary were i'm
structed to prepare and post the mott
ces.
The board instructed Mr.. Hughes to
go to st. Paul and consult with At
torney General Simpson, in order that
every step taken may have his sane
ton, so that there will be no obsta-
Gle to making the loan because of fail
IRE to comply with the law, which is
by no means plain. He went to st.
Paul this afternoon.
Franklin Addition Needed.
Mr.. Blissenbach said that the Frank
lin school is also overcrowded, and
that changing the boundary lines haf
afforded only temporary relief, and
the conditions will soon be as bad
as they were. He thought that it was
now time to build an addition to the
buildings, as it would be needed when
ready. He favored four room addi-
ton.
Mr.. Davies recalled that the money for
building this addition had once been
levied, but that at the suggestion Of
the late Mr.. Fletcher it had been used
five years ago to pay off the high
school bonds. The Union building had
been condemned, and if the attention
,of the authorities of the state was
ito be called to it, it would be closed
tomorrow. He thought that a loan
$4,000, and at the very least 100000
ought to be asked for
Members of the beard recalled that
Mortified has just voted 100000
bonds for building schools, and Albert
Lea a similar amount.
Mr.. Davies moved that the resolu-
tions be reconsidered, so as to increase
the amount asked for to 100000,
but the board thought that it would
be best to try to get along with
$4,000 at this time
| Mr.. Blssenbach said that the Frank
lin school has been neglected. 1t has
la greater enrolment than the Pleasant
lGrove, which has ten teachers.
DIR. Beach said that the attendance
at the Union school has been going
down for five years, and suggested
that the boundaries be changed again
to relieve the Franklin.
! Superintendent Sperry thought that
the attendance in the high school
would reach 500 in very few years.
Board members suggested that when
the annex becomes overcrowded fine
new building could be erected where
the Union building now is, large
enough for the eighth grade of tile
entire city, aside from all of the
Pupils of the ward.
Estimate on the Cost.
Architect Schippel addressed the
board as to the cost of the proposed
annex. He gave figures on build
ing of the size proposed, compared
with the cost of the new normal
school model building, which had cost
$4,000 besides the extras. The cost
lof the model building, if slow burn
ing would have been 1881. The pro-
posed annex, figured by square feet,
would cost $72,sOO, or by cubic con-
, tents $72,2l0, or $7G,2l0 of tile roof

building has. He was of the same
opinion as Mr.. Dunnell. as to The
desirability of having slow burning
