field to break up the republican party
but to bring about reforms within it's
ranks.
POSTMASTER Lee asserted that what
allied Minnesota republicanism was
that it had inherited a corrupt ma
chine from Minnesota democracy.
Lenroot of Wisconsin was the chief
speaker and made great hit. What
ever one may think of Lenroot's ideas,
he cannot fail to admire him as a
speaker and to be enthused by his
manner. Mr.. Lenroot fired several
charges of hot shot at President Taft
and the shots made BULBS eyes with
the crowd. He lauded La Toilette
and that tickled the crowd. He de-
nounced Canadian reciprocity and
that pleased part of the crowd while
the rest of it looked glum. But
everybody liked Lenroot and gave
him tremendous ovation when he
sat down.
Prof. Merriam talked over half an
hour and was rather academic. To-

Lenroot went after Lorimer hard and

hudson Charles McPike, brake
man on the Great Northern Railway,
while making coupling or the

about nine o'clock Friday morning,
Sept. s, fell between two fiat cars and
two wheels passed over his right leg
Just above the knee, completely
crushing the bone and inf1icting in
iuries that resulted in his death Sat
urday noon. The unfortunate man
was taken at once to the Lee Hotel
and every care and attention was CIV
en- him. Saturday forenoon the in
iured limb was amputated but even
that could not save his life. The
shock from the injury was too great
and Mr.. McPike died at noon.
Mr. McPike was well known here.
he having been in the employ OF the
railroad company for several years,
both in the capacity of fireman and
later as brakeman. He lived at Mel
rose but had many friends and &C
uuaintances in Sank Centre
A widow and young son survive.
Mrs. McPike came to Sank Centre as
soon as possible after the accident
and remained with her husband. The
remains were taken to the $3.50 a. m.
train Sunday by a delegation of
Sank Centre Masons, the deceased
having been a member of that order.
On arriving at Melrose the remains
were taken in charge by the Masons
Of that town. The funeral services
were held on Tuesday and was un-
der Masonic auspices. Interment was
made at Melrose.
Mr.. McPike was 35 years old at the
time of his death He was member
in good standing of the Order of Loco
motive Firemen and carried $1,000
life insurance in that organization.
1t is believed that the railroad COM
pany will pay the widow the full in
demnity, namely $500, which is due
for the accident, as it has been shown
that the accident was not the result
of the carelessness of the deceased.
