cheered and waved handerchiefs and
yelled itself hoarse for ten minutes.
Escorted by w. l. Nolan, chairman
of the House committee, and the gov
ernor of Minnesota, he advanced to
the speakers rostrum and was given
the speakers chair, the governor sit
ting on his left. Mr.. Nolan made a
hit when he introduced the popular
guest, especially when he said that it
took the courage of lion hunter to
address the Minnesota legislature.
Teddy" grinned and the crowd
cheered, and then he rose to speak,
and was cheered again.
He talked to the legislature and
gave them good advice. He argued
for the popular election Of senators
and of president. for the primary
election law and for the initiative,
referendum and the recall. and for
the conservation of the states re-
sources. This lasted about an hour.
Then lie devoted ten minutes to the
plain people. during which he urged
them to talk less about their rights
and to think more of their duties. 1t
appealed to the highest patriotism
and every schoolboy in the land should
have heard it.
THO remarks during the speech
were especially Rooseve1tian. While
arguing for the popular election of
senators Mr.. Roosevelt referred to
the deadlocks in legislatures, men,
tienihg several states by name. He
said: 'In Illinois they elected sem
ator though the result was not a
happy one; and the e. S. Senate is
now trying to disinfect itself" Then
the crowd yelled.
Again, in urging. the people to do
their duty, he said laws were OF no
use unless backed up by the people,
just as good rifle is useless unless
there is good man behind it. Then
he exclaimed: 81 know men whom,
if magazine rifle were put in their
hands could beat them in a minute
with club And the crowd yelled
again, for it knew that TEDDY"
could deliver the goods

all but half page of which was local
advertising, elected much favorable
comment It's easily the best paper
in the line Of placing before the pub
lie the offerings of Sank Centre mer-
chants, which has ever been printed
in this live little city. The publisher
has been the recipient of numerous
compliments on the sheet and the en-
terprise which made it possible. Lo-
cal people have said many kind words.
and the publishers of other papers
have printed nice things about it.
Here are some of the comments clip
ped from The Herald's exhanges:
The Sank Centre Herald issued a
very handsome Easter number last
week. Long Prairie Leader.
The enterprising Sank Centre Her
aid issued a handsome Easter number
last week that was most literally pa
tronized by Sank Centre business
houses, who are beginning to realize
the value of printers ink as trade
getter.- Osakis Review.
The Sank Centre Herald comes to
our table this week in the form Of a
very handsome Easter edition, with
Autograph cover all printed on white
book paper, and filled with ads. This
is enterprise that appeals to the resi-
dents of city-St. Cloud Times.
The Sauk Centre Herald appeared
last week with handsome Easter
cover and we are pleased to note that
its advertising columns were literally
patroniZed. Bro. Welles issues one of
the really live papers in this section
and the business men of that city
should show their appreciation of the
fact by using that splendid medium
more literally to build up their trade.

The above statement was made by
George Jamison, of Chamberlain, az
ter an overland trip by automobile
from the western part of the state to
Sioux Falls. According to Mr.. Jami-
son, the corn crop is immense beyond
any question of doubt and, the greater
part of the country through which.
the trip was made is planted to corn.
The potato crop will also be very
large, according to Jamison, and the
reports regarding small grain, ir
parts of the state, has been damaged
to some extent by the long drouth.

PRESIDENT TAFT AND ALASKA

Throughout his administration President Taft has shown
disposition to deal udciously with important questions
coming before him for settlement There has been OF
the theatrical about this brand of justice 1t u.s. therefore,
worth noting that the friends of Alaska making effort
bring the coal land question squarey before the chief
ecutve may also be said incidentally that the Cordova
coal party and similar sensational Incidents have proved
very effective in drawing attention the clear injustice OF
shutting off the proper of the coal of Alaska
by the citizens of the Northwest and the Pacific coast.
According Washington dispatches, Maurice d. Leehey
of the members of the American Mining Congress com
mittee recently reported upon the Alaska problem has
placed in the hands of the President bearing
general situation well upon the claims of particular
clients whom he represents in the Boring river field Pres
dent Taft urged the matter into his hands and
relieve the tension which has lately produced brood of wild
States It is ntimated that he may submit special
necessary the of complaint the hands of the
department. namely the suspension OF the laws gov
ernng the location of coal lands There has been too much
politics already dealing with the land question: and congress
is Just now mood and will be for year hence, where
politics is very much the guiding spirit.
The Mining Congress Committee, OF which MI Leefey
is member expressed the point very emphacally when it
said that the need of Alaska is administrative policy
rather than additional legislation Ceary Will be better
for Alaska be given helpful and intelligent application
inadequate inappropriate laws rather than to con-

It is no unusual cause for satisfaction that Mr. Taft has
given his promise to attend the annual session OF the AMER
