A Truly Glorious Fourth

A cool breeze from the north mod
Grated the intense heat of the pre-
ceding week somewhat and gave a
comfortable day for the celebration.
From early in the morning until
after noon the roads leading into
the city were filled with rigs
of every description, bringing the
country people here for the day S
festivities, and each incoming train
for several days previous was
packed with visitors and home
corners.
The Base Ball Association had
arranged every convenience. for the
entertainment and protection of its
guests and the whole days pro-
gram went through without mishap.
Starting about nine o'clock the
boxing and wrestling exhibitions
were held on an especially provided
platform in front of the fountain
park on Main street. Albert Brown
and Carl Parsons gave an exciting
six-round boxing exhibition and
Leigh Howe and a Minneapolis mat
artist demonstrated their wrestling
ability, to the evident appreciation
of the audience. A tug-o'-war was
then pulled off in front of the post
office, picked team from the city
out-pulling picked team from the
country. The band from ST. Paul
arrived on the morning train and
after rendering a couple of selec-
tons on upper Main street and two
more in front of the Gladstone no.
tel, led the march to the park,
where the ball game between the
Stewart Mercs and the Mcpherson
& Langford team was the chief at
traction for the remainder of the
forenoon. The Stewart Mercs won
out by a score of Is to 2, Manion
holding the visitors to but one safe
hit.
After dinner large and atten-
tive audience listened with great
appreciation to an eloquent and in
structive address delivered by
District Attorney George Thomp-
son of Ellsworth. At three o'clock
the River Falls city team and Ellis
worth crossed bats in a long, one
sided game which was won by the
locals by score of Is to g. A nail
driving contest for ladies was won
by Mrs. VIM. Schofeld. The prize,
a sack of flour, was donated by Ell

liott & WATSON. Leslie Gray cap
tured the creased pig. The Els
worth gun club, which was sched-
uled to compete with the local
shooters, failed to show up, and an
Individual shoot was held. Besides
the local club, Lutte Musser, S. Her
rick and Mr.. Lake, the latter pro-
fessional shot, entered the contest.
Of the club members Geo. Stewart
won first with total of 20 out of a
possible 25. The club score was as
follows: Geo. Stewart, 20; c. A.
Judd, Is; Ray Williams and w. H.
Currier, Is each; Hugh Morrow, IL;
P. w. Kramer, 9. The other scores
were: Lake, %; Herrick, 10; Mus
ser, Is. All oe the above scores
are the number of hits out of a pos
sible Is.
Dancing in the pavilion, to excel
lent music furnished by the St.
Paul band, proved one Of the most
popular diversions of che day, and
the floor managers were kept busy
selling tickets from about the mid
die of the afternoon, when the
dancing commenced, until late at
night. One feature which added to
the popularity of the dance, was
the excellent order maintained.
The advantages of Glen Park as a
picnic place was convincingly dem
onstrated by the happy groups of
picnickers which inhabited the
grounds all day. Another point
which contributed greatly to the
comfort of the visitors was the fine
service rendered by those who op-
Grated the lunch booths. The edi-
bles were clean and tasty and were
not over priced, as is SO often the
case on like occasions elsewhere.
The Base Ball Association COM
mittee is to be congratulated upon
the splendid success of it's celebra-
ton and the enjoyment it afforded
to all it's patrons.

ard, whose wonderfully successful
ventures in experimental housekeep-
ing are fast attracting widespread
attention. From their little House
keeping Experiment Station at
Darien, Conn, they are communicat-
ing invaluable lessons in household
economy to the whole American
people by means of bulletins and
lectures. The food question is nat
urally paramount. How to take the
m-muscled old Chanticleer and,
by invoking the magic of the freless
cooker, transform the tough old
sinner into a tender and succulent
roast chicken-how to make cheap
cuts of meat as nutritious and pala-
table as porterhouse steak-these
and many other miracles performed
by these patient Investigators in the
vitality important field of domestic
economy, as described in this arti-
Gle, cannot fail to be of deep inter
est to every home maker.
The problem OF keeping young
people on the farm is largely one of
eliminating the unnecessary, uneco-
nomical work that diScourages them.
At the very foundation of the science
of domestic administration lies the
conservation of human energy. and
the heads of the experiment station
are seeking to show how the prin-
ciples of economy of time and ener-
gy are daily violated in countless
homes.

Any farmer or public-spirited
business man in Wisconsin who
wishes to secure an Institute for his
locality during the winter of 1901
should send to us for a blank petit
ton and letter of information. Any
town, no matter how far from the
railroad, is entitled to an Institute,
provided il is located in a farming

which a meeting can be held.
Farmers should talk this matter

Black Handlers in Prison.

Eight of the famous seventeen
black hand artists arrested in a raid
on a dive in the east have been con
victed on the charge of floating spuri-
u money and obtaining money by
threats and other unlawful means and
are now On their way to the federal
prison at Atlanta to serve terms at
hard labor, varying from fifteen to
thirty years in length, The result of
this trial should prove an effective
damper on the work Of black hand
ers" and all others engaged in the
same outlawry. All the men convicted
are Italians, led by the famous Italian
bandit Lupo, The Wolf,' and the
other nine, who are also Italians, will
be tried soon.
For a number OF years the black
hand societies Of this country have
been a source of great annoyance and
anxiety. "Holdups'' have been an all
too frequent occurrence in the larger
cities of the country, accompanied by
destruction of property n ASA ssina-
ton, at the hands of these bandits. It
seemed easy at first and the success
of the black handlers called other
Italian criminals here to exploit their
well-to-do compatriots through threats
and violence.
The tendency of the people Of this
country is to find fault with our laws
because occasionally they have been
evaded. But there is less and less
evasion in these days. We do not so
much need new laws to deal with
criminals who come from Europe, as
the laws we now have are proving
sufficient, this statement being based
on the fact that they are accom-
plishing the work desired. A few con
victions with sentences toFffteen years
at hard labor should have a most
salutary effect in REFRESHING this sort
of crime. Black hand methods in this
country will be below par when prisons
are held out as the ultimate reward
for such practices.

Alaska Coal Fields.

The investigation of the Alaska coal
fields has brought to light some in
teresting facts from the standpoint of
the coal supply of the United States.
The immense quantities OF Alaskan
coal, practically on the surface of the
ground, gives reason to believe that
the underground veins are also i'm
mense and proportiona;ely of a better
quality. Coal everywhere lying in plain
view and ready ALMOST to shovel into
cars for market sounds big ever to the
average American. 1t also makes the
statement that the coal supply of the
world will run out in a few years
sound small and like a Wall street
panic report.
But in spite of the great quantity
Of coal in sight it is not of the value
now that it will be later. The means
Of transportation are small and make
the cost of marketing the product so
great that at present there is little
danger of the field being exhausted.
1t will be years before Alaskan coal
can be marketed in large quantities
in this country or even on the Pacific
coast in competition with the coal
nearer home. 1t is reasonable to be-
lieVe that the vast coal fields in Wyo-
ming, Colorado and the Dakotas will
be worked first.
Few people realize the large
amounts of coal in the different parts
of the United States from which the
government is deriving a royalty.
North Dakota is said to contain fifty
billion tons, Wyoming 424 billion tons,
Colorado sri billion tons, Montana
500 billion tons, Illinois 240 billion
tons, West Virginia 231 billion tons,
Utah 1913 billion IONS and Pennsylvania
1873 billion tons. This is the report
from the eight states having the
largest fields. Alaska now comes to
the front with a coal supply which
actually staggers-ifty billion tons in
one 5,0OO-acre tract, and the land is
but partially explored. Japan has mil
lions of tons of coal in it's mountains
and Asia seems underlayed with it in
great veins.
While there, is nc excuse to waste
your coal resources, no coal shortage
can be very imminent.

A NEBRASKA INsURGENT.
Hayward's Candidacy for Congress
Held to Put Him in This Class.
washington Star.

Washington Star.
William Hayward of Nebraska, secre-
tary of the republican national committee,
is an insurgent out of congress seeking
to enter congress on the insurgent plat
form. He has the courage of his convic-
tions, and his convictions are ~ that Mr..
Cannon should not again be speaker, 90
that the rules of the house should be
changed to give the house more and the
speaker less power in the order OF bust
ness, and 80 that IL the Payne law does
not prove satisfactory it should be
amended.
Sufficient unto the house is the speaker
thereof. Mr.. Cannon is the speaker Of
the present house by an overwhelming
majority. He is not an announced can
dldate for speaker of the next house, He
is reasonably certain II he lives to be a
member OF that body, but he might not
care for such a row as his opponents
would raise If he asked for another term
in the chair. Mr.. Hayward is borrowing
Of the future in the first plank OF his plat
form.
The rules afford a better subject for
discussion. AS Mr.. Hayward is without
congressional experience, he is judging OF
the rules of the present house from
hearsay. They are of republican origin,
nearly twenty years old, and were designed
to correct abuses growing out Of a lack
of power in the chair. If revision is neces-
sary-and some OF Mr.. Cannon's best
friends think it is-it should be made so
as to prevent a return TO the old trouble.
A powerless chair would work more evil
than a powerful one has ever done, or
possibly could. SO then Mr.. Hayward's
second proposition, while interesting,
might be safely postponed.
Mr., Hayward, third plank is more to
the point. Bot the subject is an easy one
for his contention. Undoubtedly II the
Payne law proves a disappointment Il
will nave to be amended The republicans
took tina risk when they passed it. They
had two things in mind: Lowering duties
without weakening the general principle
OF protection, and raising revenue enough
for the liberal support of the government.
II duties were not lowered where they
should have been, or not sufficiently
lowered where changed from the Dingley
law. or inadequate provision was made
for revenue. the operations OF the bill
will show the trouble, II, on the other
hand, business prospers under the law
and the government is provided with
money enough 20 pay its way, a move
ment TO change the law by the party OF
protection may not be expected for several
Years at least.
The district in which Mr., Hayward Of
fers himself Is now represented by a
democrat, who in November, 1908, received
less than 1000 majority. What an insur-
gent republican may be able to do there
this year Will be noted with much interest.
Omaha daily bee., 1910-02-21
The Point Of View

The Washington Star e%ditorializes
on the announcement by Secretary
Hayward Of the republican national
committee of his candidacy for con
gress by hailing him as "a Nebraska
insurgent. Out here in Nebraska the
democratic opposition has been trying
to make capital by labelling Mr.. Hay
ward as a ~standpatter and a reaction
airy, which goes to show how different
an object may look when seen through
different glasses. The Washington Star
rests its assertion that Mr.. Hayward
is an insurgent on his declaration that
he will oppose retaining Mr.. Cannon
in the speakership and will favor such
changes in the house rules ds will
facilitate majority rule, and will favor
further changes in the tariff wherever
the present law may prove to be un-
satisfactory.
Whether the insurgents in Nebraska
will take the Stars word for it and
receive Mr.. Hayward as one of their
number, we do not know. But it
strikes US that his program is neither
insurgency nor reaction, but straight
forward republicanism, in line with
the leadership Of President Taft. A
man does not have to call himself an
insurgent to prefer someone besides
Mr.. Cannon for speaker, nor are the
house rules invested with any sacred
ness or sanctity; on the contrary, they
have been amended frcm time to time
to suit the needs of the transaction
Of legislative business, and will be
amended again and again by future
congresses.
AS to the tariff, no one has ever
commended that the new law could
never be improved upon, President
Taft has insisted that the new law is
a step forward on the old law which
is %supplanted, and part OF his tariff
program contemplates a report from
the board of tariff experts that will
show its weaknesses and where i'm
provements may be made. The present
tariff may be accepted Us a substantial
compliance of the platform promise
of revision, and entitled to be judged
on the results of a fair trial, without
foreclosinG the desirability to amend
ment. later to readjust the schedules
still closer to existing industrial re-
quirements. This may be s~tandpatism
or insurgency, according to point of
view, but it is republicanism and not
~insurrection.
