MAYOR CULLUN of Duluth has
sized up the situation right when
he says that ordinances are only
good if concurred in by the people
of any town. He cited several
cases and among others was the
"Curfew law" of which he says:
AS for instance, the "Curfew
law" Parents should understand
that in the opinion of the author
tiles, who are perhaps best able to
Judge, that it is both harmful and
dangerous to allow their children
to parade the street all hours of the
night. If parents have construed
this to mean that are relieved of all
responsibility, then the law does
more harm than good, and had
better be repealed" Citing other
ordinances Mayor Cullun continues.
But they proceed on the theory
that in as much as the authorities
have assumed the responsibility
that their personal, moral respon-
sibility ceases, and they can go the
limit unless detected or proceeded
against. This of course, throws
burden on the authorities that is
beyond all reason, and. it en-
courages Indifference" The News
Tribune in commenting on these
views made the apt remark that
everybody knows that the saloon
closing order is not enforced in any
single large city in the state but
that no man has any right to
complain as to the violation of laws
by others when he violates any law
himself. The man who has not
paid his wheelage tax, who runs
his automobile recklessly, or whose
children wander the streets at
night, has no excuse or right to
censure the saloon man, who
violates the liquor 1aws.''

The advocates OF San Francisco are
claiming tonight that their fight Is

San Francisco won by capturing tine
Republican vote In the house The
New Orleans support came from the

ted for New Orleans. Thirty-six

dent OF the United States to invite

tional naval parade from Hampton

"EDWARD BURGESS" PROVED TO
BE EDWARD BURGESS BUT
LER, MILLIONAIRE.
STORY IS REMARKABLE
Butler Never Even Attempted to
Draw Till He Was So, Three
Years Ago Competition =.
For His Paintings.

Chicago, Jan, 30.---With the open
ing OF the Art Institute today Of the
fifteenth annual exhibit OF the works
or Chicago artists, remarkable ro-
nance became public, reconciling the
identity Of millionaire business man
with that of a successful artist.
The business man, whom none Of
his associates suspected Of artistic
aspersions, is Edward Burgess
Butler. AS Edward Burgess,
it was learned tonight, he was a sue
cessful painter OF landscapes. The
mystery was solved by art critics who
have been puzzled for more than a
year over the authorship of a painting
hung last year, for the possession Of
which there was keen competition.
The story becomes more remark
able when 1t is knowl that Mr. Butler
hod never attempted even to draw, UP
to three years ago, at the age Of So.
In the next two years he could spare
but little time for the cultivation of
the new found git, but to his greai
surprise the landscape painted by
Edward Burgess" was not only ac-
cepted and hung at the exposition a
year ago, but several organizations,
which customalily purchase ahe
cream Of the work shown, entered
into competition to secure the paint
Ing. Letters sent to Burgess, lov-
ever remained unanswered, and the
