GOphers Triumph
Over Big Rivals
From Wisconsin
While McGovern is the Bright Star,
Others Share in the
Honors.

NORTHROP FIELD, MINNEAPOLIS,
Nov 12-Minnesota easily defeated Wis
consin, its old rival, this afternoon BY
a score of 2S to 0, and by virtue ofscom-
parative scores, now claims the western
conference championship.
Minnesota ripped the Wisconsin line to
pieces In the first half. scoring the first
touchdown in two and half minutes of
play and adding two more before the
first period ended. Beginning with the
second period, Coach Williams used nu-
merous substitutes and the teams played
more evenly during the latter part of
the game.
Wisconsin never had q chance. The
onslaughts OF Johnston, Rosenwald, ste
vens and MoGovern could not be checked
and gains of from five to twenty yards
were made nearly every time these men
took the ball.
Both teams relied almost entirely on
straight foot ball. Not a forward pass
was attempted during the game and
Minnesota resorted to only one trick
play, NcGovern making a touchdown on
that attempt.
wisconsin had only one chance to
score when Gillette attempted a drop
kick from the forty-yard line after q
long run, but this failed
McGoyern as usual was team in
himself but Johnston and ROsenwald
shared honors with him. The field was
slippery and falls were frequent.

downs. McGovern caught punt on Wis

WeII-KnoWn Atlanta Attorney
Given Cordial Reception As
He Fills Engagement for
Former Governor Smith

WAYCROSS, Ga, July 29.-Col. Reu-
ben r. Arnold, of Atlanta, spoke to
1000 people here this morning, filling
the date that former Governor Smith
had been compelled to cancel on ac-
count of his illness. Mr.. Arnold will
also speak to a number of labortng
men at the band park at o'clock, a
number OF them being unable to hear
Mr.. Arnold at the morning meeting.
Colonel Arnold was given a great
demonstration and the mention OF Mr..
Smiths name was received with tu-
multuous applause. When Mr.. Arnold
suggested stopping at IL o'clock, he
was asked Ito keep his watch in his
pocket and go on" 1t was at the re-
quest Of the laboring men who could
not be present that Mr.. Arnold agreed
to remain over and speak to them to-
night.
CROWDS ARRIVE.
Early trains from Douglas, Wars
boro. Pearson, Nichols, Beach, Patter-
son, Blackshear, a>Offerman and other
towns brought large crowds who expect
ed to hear Mr. Smith speak. Many far
mers came in from surrounding counties.
The news of Mr.. Smiths illness had
reached some of the out-of-town voters.
but at least 1000 people living in 9TH
er towns and the rural districts were
present. When the speaking began 1t
was conservatively estimated that there
were 1000 people present. The speak
ing took place near the corner of Tebau
and Elizabeth streets. There were q
plenty of trees and seats 70 1000 peo-
pie. The speakes stand was eected I'M

the close OF the present lease bring a
large revenue to the people of the state.
1t is no longer required for railroad
terminals.
We should study the question of ex-
tending the state road to the sea and
to the gulf. 1 do not mean that this
can be done during the next administra-
ton, but it should be kept before the
Public and by the end of the present
lease the state road should reach to the
ocean at two or more ports, and a part
of the plan of improvement should be
to extend 1t also to the gulf.
l do not mean that the state is to
operate the property. I am inclined to
be against state operation. But this
great property can be developed so as to
increase enormously the revenue of the
state and lessen the burden of taxation
resting upon the people, and 1t can
also be used as a means of regulating
our transportation charges, and giving
to Georgia what the Erie canal gave
to New York state, freight rates which
made New York the metropolis of Amer
lea.
AUTHORIZING BILL.
We secured all the measures of legisla-
ton for which the contest of 1906 was
made except the anti-Iobbying bill
sincerely hope the present legislature
will pass this bill. If 1t does not, we
should pass it next year.
PERFECT ALL WORK, ESPECIALLY
SCHOOLS.
We will perfect our other legislation
passed in pursuance of the pledges made
to the people in 1906, and there need be
no fear of friction with the legislature
The work in 1911 will be to perfe t what
has been already done, not to destroy
it.
In all our lines we should have pro-
gress and betterment Tor Georgia and
her people as our object.
The greatest constructive policy to
which the thought of the next admin
istration should De given must be cur
children and our schools. We must train
the children of the state We must
especially stimulate the work of our Iu-
raj teachers. We must systematic the
plan for our rural schools. We must
see that the splendid boys and girls,
blessed by the opportunity of fresh air,
of woods and fields, with these special
